9th Circle Lord - 135 #135화 etc. 3

Vanessa’s younger brother, Eric, didn’t think to fall beside her.

In the end, he asked for a conversation with his brother and sister rather than a private conversation.

Eric was Vanessa’s young escort.

She gave strength to Elena’s eyes as if she would not stand still if she did something stupid.

Elena smiled and looked around.

The shabby exterior was not different because it was internal.

The old tables and chairs were barely enough to sit on, and the inner corners and fixtures were old and shabby.

Elena smiled at the Vanessa family’s household chores.

“You must have had a hard time.”

Vanessa said weakly.

“As you can see, it’s right.”

“Can I know what happened?”

“My father died suddenly and we’re the only brothers and sisters left. I’ve been trying to figure things out here and there to make a living, but you know, there’s nothing that women who don’t have.”

“What happened to Doris outside?”

“My father was in debt to him. He died because he couldn’t pay it all, and he was asking for a marriage contract with me instead of a debt.”

“I see.”

The situation was visible.

Elena glanced at Vanessa, who was powerless.

“You look down. Are you sick?”

“I guess the aftermath of my illness a few days ago still continues.”

“Really?”

Looking at his emaciated face, it doesn’t seem to be because of his simple body aches.

Elena, who understood Vanessa’s situation, now revealed her business.

“Do you know why I came to see Miss Vanessa?”

“No, I have no idea. Is the Wizard of Miracles related to my father?”

“That’s not true. As I said before, I’m interested in Miss Vanessa.”

Vanessa seems to have no idea.

“May I know why you’re looking for me?”I understand that he was involved in water and sewerage work in the Imperial Capital three years ago. Am I right?”

Vanessa nodded her head.

“Yes. That’s right. I remember helping you.”

“Was it originally your father’s job?”

“Yes, my father was an administrator of the imperial family. You’re in charge of designing the water supply and demand system, but it’s hard to work, so I helped you for a while.”

“I’d like to hear the process in detail.”

Vanessa wondered at Elena’s interest.

“Why do you want to know that?”

“Maybe it could be a turning point in Vanessa’s life.”

Vanessa, who was embarrassed, began to explain.

“We connected a drain to the Bates water source near the capital, so the water was long and the sewer was carried out through the water flowing from the water supply. It’s a simple way.”

Elena shook her head.

According to separate research, the capital city was full of poop and urine everywhere due to a lack of sewage facilities.

However, the water supply system and sewage treatment facilities were completely solved.

This is not an ordinary ability.

“It doesn’t look simple. Did you teach yourself?”

“Yes, I like to study, so I read books often.”

“Didn’t Miss Vanessa intend to follow your father into administration?”

Vanessa grinned.

“A woman cannot be an administrator.”

“It’s a pity that she’s the one who’s solved the long-standing problems of the shit-smelling empire before her, and she’s not recognized for her ability.”

“It’s only a fraction of what I bet. I’m not that good.”

“There’s nothing to be humble about. The fact that Vanessa was named in the Information Guild means that she has that much money.”

Vanessa was puzzled when the Information Guild was mentioned.

“What do you mean, the Information Guild? What do you mean?”

“Elmont is far from talented and talented. So we are recruiting people who are neglected compared to their abilities in the capital. Miss Vanessa, you’re one of them.”

“Me?”

Elena officially requested Vanessa, who opened her eyes in a circle.

“Miss Vanessa, I want to take you to Elmont. I want you to be a competent administrator for Elmont.”

Vanessa, who was wide awake, looked puzzled.

“I’m embarrassed because it’s such a sudden offer.”

“They say that luck falls suddenly. I think it’s a great opportunity for Miss Vanessa’s ability to be unleashed.”

“But can I do it?”

“Trust in yourself. If it weren’t for your ability, the capital would still have poo on the street. And now is not the time to hesitate.”

With her eyes wide open, she asked implicitly.

“You’re not going to make a marriage with a man who looks like a cheesy catfish, are you?”Vanessa smiled faintly.

Eric, who said he would listen quietly, opened his mouth.

“Hey. Is my sister that capable?”

Elena nodded.

“Of course, otherwise you wouldn’t have come.”

“If we go to Elmont, will we be able to drop those bad guys like Doris?”

“Doris can never touch Elmont. Do you know who the lord of the place is?”

“I know, the miracle wizard. You said you cured the emperor.”

“Will the miracle wizard who cured the Emperor be afraid of Dorsy out there?”

Eric, who nodded at Elena, who explained the difference in power so that it was easy to understand, looked at Vanessa.

“Noona, this is a great opportunity. You have to catch him.”

“But we’re in debt. It won’t be easy until you pay it back.”

“Don’t worry about that. My lord has a lot of money.”

Vanessa opened her eyes wide.

“Then will you pay the debt?”

“Of course. My lord will be very angry if you miss the talent for that little money.”

I guarantee that I will pay back the debt at the opportunity to expand my capabilities.

Vanessa nodded at Eric’s desperate eyes.

“Yes, I’ll do my best if I can help.”

Elena reached out her hand.

“Congratulations, Elmont can’t get anyone in. Many people eagerly look at the walls of Elmont every day to get permission from the Lord. But you’re rather invited. I hope you realize that you are an amazing person and have confidence.”

“Yes, thank you.”

Vanessa, who caught up, smiled after Elena.

Doris, looking nervously at the closed door in a restless state, couldn’t hold back and asked Dolken, who stood like a statue.

“What the hell are you talking about? What the hell is your business?”

Dolken didn’t answer.

It’s like treating him like an invisible man.

Doris became very horny when he treated her like a man without a clue.

He couldn’t speak because of Dolken’s spirit, but he had a deep grudge inside.

‘We’ll see. This is not Elmont where you can walk freely.’

Already in his head, the aristocrats, who had usually paid bribes with great care, were passing by.

While I was going to wait and see, the closed door finally opened.

Doris looked closely at the three men who appeared like merchants.

They all looked satisfied.

You look happy, but somehow he didn’t know about it.

At the moment, Doris, who made eye contact with Eric, was startled.

A little boy who had been hostile toward him until a while ago had a conversation with a person from Elmont, had a triumphant look on his face.

What the hell does that mean?

It’s not a matter to groan alone.

Doris asked.

“Vanessa, what did you talk about with them?”

Vanessa looked at Doris.

At that moment, Doris, who smiled unintentionally at her beauty, had a bolt of news.

“People here said they’d pay my debts.”

“What, what? What did you just say?”

Eric spoke confidently.

“Now you’re done! You won’t be able to touch my sister anymore!”

Doris’s eyes reached Elena.

He asked like shouting.

“What the hell did you do? What are you trying to do to pay off my wife’s debts?”

Already in his head, Vanessa was considered his wife.

Elena said coldly.

“You don’t have to know. Let’s clear up the debt relationship first. I heard you owe 450 gold. I’ll send the money to your business tomorrow.”

“Oh, no. What’s that?”

Vanessa suddenly approached him.

She gave strength to her voice.

“I will cancel my marriage with you.”

“Bar, Vanessa! Don’t do this. How much I helped you when I was in trouble…….”

“Don’t lie to me. Rather, I know you interrupted me from behind so I couldn’t work. This is the last time I’m here with you.”

“Bar, Vanessa! That’s a misunderstanding! Let’s not do this here for a second, but talk to each other in a quiet place.”

“I don’t like it.”

Unlike before, Vanessa’s expression of her intention is active.

She turned her back coldly and Eric shouted loudly.

“Don’t get stuck with my sister again!”

Doris, who was bubbling, shouted fiercely at Eric.

“Shut up, little boy! Before you rip that mouth off!”

Eric flinched at a violent cry.Doris pointed at Vanessa, who was surprised.

“Do you think I’ll walk away like this? You’ll see! I’ll make sure I get this back. We’ll see!”

Doris, who shouted, turned around.

Vanessa’s face was filled with anxiety.

Elena reassured her like that.

“Don’t worry. No matter how much Doris threatens, she won’t be able to touch Elmont.”

But she was thinking too easily about the current situation.

Doris was at the top of the middle-class even in the capital of the empire where the wealth of the continent was concentrated, and he built countless connections to grow.

Doris immediately went to find her personal connections.

It was the beginning of the most powerful Marquis Potts among many connections.

He complained about his situation in search of Marquis Potts’ financial officer.

“A bully from Elmont is going to take my wife away. Help!”

Unlike Doris’s desperation, the financial officer, who was showing off his troublesome expression with a bored look, opened his eyes to the word Elmont.

“What did you just say? Elmont?

“What? Oh, yeah.”

“Is the Elmont guy in the capital?”

Doris nodded at his repeated questions.

“Yes, they have robbed my wife. Help!”

“What are you talking about? He robbed your wife? Why would they?”

“I have no idea. I asked him why, but he didn’t answer and left.”

An irritation occurred to the finance officer’s face.

Doris’s explanation without any alarm didn’t add up.

The finance officer got angry.

“What nonsense is that? I don’t understand, so explain what happened in detail from the beginning.”

“Yes, yes.”

Doris’ explanation followed.

The finance officer was incredible.

“I hear you’re making a marriage contract instead of a debt, but why is she your wife?”

“That’s my wife.”

Doris was stubborn.

But that’s not what matters.

The finance officer has been hired.

“Did you have a knack for a woman named Vanessa?”

“I have no idea. What the hell are they doing to my wife to pay her debts and take her with them?”

“Do you know where they are?”

“Yes, I’ve put a person on it, but you have to be careful. He was with a man and a woman, but my escort says he’s an Expert prosecutor.”

“Is that so?”

The financial officer beat the desk rhythmically.

“At a time like this, people from Elmont show up and take women? What the hell is going on?”

In the capital, Elmont was a hot potato.

It was a hot topic, and it’s a matter of interest.

The Elmont moved.

“At a time like this?”

I need to report.

The finance officer said.

“Just wait here for now. I need to go somewhere. No, I need you to accompany me. We need to know the details of the description and situation.”

“What? Where are you going?”

“Somewhere. Your Majesty’s office.”

The treasurer led Doris, who was puzzled, to visit the Marquis of Potts.
