"I must have been rude."

Chanton Sussew spoke in a rather slow tone.

But there was no word of apology.

He knew it was rude, but he didn't regret it.

"...Come in."

Gallahan said, pointing to the sofa in the office.

"Thank you."

Sitting face to face with Chanton Sussew, Gallahan suddenly realized that his office felt narrow.

It was not really like that.

It was just that the ordinary office capture the large size and presence of Chanton Sussew.

Chanton Sussew, who looked around Gallahan's office with curious eyes, told Gallahan.

"I thought at least you come to greet me once as Lord of Sussew. It's hard to see your face, Lord Gallahan Lombardy."

Chanton Sussew was now berating Gallahan for not greeting him first.

Cheshire was awarded to Gallahan and became independent, no longer a part of the Sussew, but it was still a territory surrounded by Sussew land.

"Of course, I understand that you'll be very busy working with Cheshire estates and Gallahan Clothing Store that is spread across the continent."

"...Thank you."

"It's only when you're less busy, isn't it?"

Chanton Sussew's lips drew a smile, but Gallahan only became more uncomfortable.

That was the atmosphere of Lord Sussew himself as an individual, but above all, the fact that he was the person of the Empress made Gallahan nervous.

Nowadays, the Empress introduced Chanton Sussew everywhere she went.

As if there should be no one in the Empire who did not know that the Lord of the West was a close aide to the Empress.

To be honest, Chanton Sussew was a very reluctant person to Gallahan.

Sure enough.

The Lord of Sussew asked.

“I heard that a port is opening in Cheshire. Is that correct?”

For a moment, Gallahan resisted the urge to say no.

The Port of Cheshire was so precious.

And Gallahan's instincts were saying Chanton Sussew was the one who would threaten it.

"That's right."

Inevitably, Gallahan's words stretched out.

"Then Cheshire Port would be the starting point for inland supplies to move along the river."

Lord of Sussew was already grasping everything.

"...That's right."

Gallahan answered one beat slower.

Then Chanton Sussew said, lifting one eyebrow.

"But why do I know that now?"

"I don't know what you're talking about..."

"If inland supplies are to reach the Cheshire port, they must all pass through the land of West Sussew."

Rattle.

Gallahan paused with the sound of his heart sinking.

The Cheshire port is surrounded by the land of West Sussew.

In other words, it was up to him, the owner of Sussew, to decide whether the goods could go into Cheshire.

It was a pretty nice threat.

Hos green eyes, gradually turning into hostility, asked, looking directly at Chanton Sussew.

"In what sense should I accept that?"

"What do you think it means?"

Chanton Sussew said, looking for a moment at Gallahan, who did not say anything with a stubborn face.

"It looks like you've worked hard with the investment from the Pellet Corporation."

It was an awful dry yet slow tone.

Chanton Sussew leaned forward, resting his knees with his elbow.

A large shadow moved along with him.

"One word from me could turn it out to be a bubble."

There was silence in Gallahan's office.

On top of the tight tension, Chanton Sussew slipped in his energy.

The overwhelming feeling of commanding hundreds of Imperial Knights overwhelm Gallahan.

Under the same circumstances, as Viese Lombardy, Gallahan's older brother, make him could not breathe properly.

Later, he even hiccups in surprise.

Joy flashed through Chanton Sussew's eyes recalling that time.

However.

"What do you want?"

Gallahan Lombardy asked without hostility.

"...Ha."

The one who was surprised was Canton Sussew.

He took his energy out again and stared at Gallahan.

Looking at the complexion, it doesn't mean that he wasn't affected.

The enmity in bright green eyes has never abated at all.

"How can you be sure that there's something I want?"

"Otherwise, you didn't have to come and take the trouble to break my spirit, but you could have locked up the gate of Sussew so that the goods wouldn't come in after the Port was opened. That could do a bigger disservice to Cheshire."

Gallahan said calmly.

"So stop being childish and tell me. What do you want?"

"...Sometimes rumors are true."

Gallahan slightly frowned at the word 'rumor'."

"I don't know what that 'rumor' is, but please tell me your terms quickly. I have a place to go."

"Ah, did it say that today is the birthday of the Lord of Lombardy? He doesn't hold banquets or accept gifts every year, he only gathers family members and vassals and spends them simply. Then you better hurry."

Chanton Sussew nodded.

And he said, looking straight at Gallahan.

"Priority to allow Sussew's ship to enter the Cheshire port at any time. How?"

Gallahan was a little surprised.

Of course, he thought he would charge a toll to pass through Sussew's land.

There is only one reason why priority is required.

"Do you intend to build your own ship?"

"If it's used frequently, it's not like we can't make it."
