A few days have passed since his engagement to Sylvia, and now that the tim ceremony is , Leorle is heading to the royal castle. Today, the king would officially notify him of his achievements in the war. Of course, not only Leorde, but also many nobles would be attending the ceremony.

 The ceremony would be held in the morning and the celebration in the afternoon. At that time, it was to be officially announced that Leolde and Sylvia were engaged . Leolde was dressed in formal attire and was heading to the royal castle  by carriage, sighing absently. In the past, Leordo's body had been as stiff as a stone under the strain, but it seems that he has grown both physically and mentally through many experiences. The natural-looking Leolde had become more like him.

 However, it was still too tense for him to be sneezing. So Gilbert, who was riding in the carriage with him, chided him.

"Young  master . You're too relaxed for such an important  event."

"l. Forgive me, Gil. I'll change it when we get to the castle."

"Oh,  my god . Just for now?"

"Oh. Sorry.""

 Leolde  then looked out of the carriage with a carefree air. There was not a trace of tension, but Gilbert felt deeply moved by his natural attitude. Unlike in the past, he had become a respectable human being. Leolde, who was once ridiculed as a golden pig and even called a disgrace to the aristocracy, had grown to this level. Gilbert, who had been watching over him closely, could feel this.

 After a while, a carriage arrived at the royal castle. Leolde entered the castle with Gilbert in tow, and went to a room that had been prepared for them. They waited there for a while. Then, a knight comes to the room and  tell that the ceremony is about to begin, so Leolde goes to the throne room. This time, the main character is Leoldd. It was only natural that he should appear last.

"The doors will open in a moment, please wait."

"Ah. Thank you for your work . You can step back now."

"Yes!"

 The knight leads Leor=lde to the front of the throne room . He looks up at the door, which is still ridiculously large, and snickers. It's a meaningless door, no matter how many times he sees it.

(Well, shape is important, isn't it? Yeah, it's  has to look good.)

 As Leolde  nodded to himself, the large door leading to the throne room slowly opened. Leolde  pulled himself together, put on a serious face, and waited until the doors were fully opened. Then, when the door is fully opened, he hears  his name. Hearing this, Leolde  slowly walks on the red carpet to the front of the king.

 As he steps in front of the king, Leolde  puts one knee on the floor and bows his head with one hand on his chest. The ceremony begins after confirming that Leolde has taken the posture of showing loyalty. First, one of the civil servants read out the achievements of Leolde one by one. He then checked with Leolde  to make sure there were no mistakes.

 The ceremony then proceeded smoothly, and ended with the king praising Leolde  and announcing his reward   ; a knighthood, money, territory, and  his marriage to Sylvia. As expected, there was not a single nobleman who complained this time. Rather, they were slightly in awe.

 Everyone was horrified that a young nobleman who had only just come of age could continue to make achievements that no ordinary person could achieve, and even share the royal bloodline. They must not make enemies of him. However, if he became an ally, he would be so reassuring. So many nobles made plans. They wondered if there was any way they could get along with Leolde.

 However, Leolde  was already engaged to Sylvia, and  they could not  sell their  daughter to him . It would have been a different story if Leolde was a womanizer, but unfortunately, Leolde  has normal sensibilities and thinks that Sylvia is all he needs, so the nobles' plan fails. In the first place.

 Then, what to do?. The only way is to try to negotiate with whatever Leolde  might be interested in. If not women, then money; if not money, then human resources or specialties. 

(Something gives me the chills. ......)

 Leolde's back shakes as he leaves the throne room, his gaze tangled. As he glanced over his shoulder into the throne room, he knew he was being watched by many nobles.

Leolde was disgusted by the nobles' intentions. Leolde left the throne room quickly and returned to his room. When he returned to his room, he sat down on his chair with a bang, and Gilbert could tell that he was in a bad mood.

"What's wrong,  master ?

"Nonsense,  they  didn't say it, but a lot of noblemen were planning to take advantage of me."

"It was inevitable, I suppose. The  master is undoubtedly the most powerful man in the kingdom right now.

"That's true. Everyone wants to take advantage of that. But I don't like it."

 Yes, it was those who were thinking of taking the easy way out and sipping the sweet juice that Leolde  didn't like. Leolde  has been trying his best to resist his fate. Of course, it was a foul deed using the knowledge of the other world, but it was never all that easy. He doesn't want to be taken advantage of by people who don't know anything about his struggles.

. I'm not so sycophantic as to give sweet nectar to people who have never risked their lives."

 If this had been a knight, Leolde would have been rewarded. These are people who have risked their lives in everything from monster panics to wars. It would not have been unfair to reward them accordingly. Leolde  thought about rewarding the knights for their participation in the war when he returned to Ze'at.
