I Really Don’t Want to Be the Ruler of the Abyss! - Chapter 27
Jay Smollett only woke up the next morning after drinking at noon.
The nightmare of Monica marrying Rollin kept playing in his mind.
So he immediately went to his good friend’s house and told his little friend everything about himself.
Because he was afraid of being laughed at, he did not tell him his name.
After his little friend heard it, he felt deeply sympathetic, so he came up with a plan.
“Isn’t there going to be a conflict with the neighboring countries recently? You can entrust Aurelia Dupont with a large number of orders!”
“Then, you can slightly change the date of the contract with this treasure of mine. After that, you can punish them through the imperial decree!”
Taking the magic pen from his friend’s hand, he wrote a 30-day number on the white paper. After about a day, the number became 15.
.
The next day, seeing that the number had really changed, Jay Smollett immediately laughed out loud!
“Rollin, Rollin, see that I won’t destroy your family!”
Recently, due to Rollin doing a few people’s work a day, the Empire’s weapons order was quickly completed.
In order to not let the people around him have nothing to do, Aurelia Dupont directly took over all of Rollin’s tasks.
He was prepared to let Rollin have a good rest for a few days, and then pass on some new knowledge to him.
Just as he was about to leave, Smollett’s eldest son’s butler sent over a contract.
“Produce fifty sets of armor within 30 days!”
This was a huge contract, and the price was three times the market price!
Aurelia Dupont accepted the contract without hesitation. He immediately brought the form to Rollin’s workshop.
He pushed open the door and found Rollin practicing his sword.
“Rollin, come over and take a look at this order!”
He stopped what he was doing and walked over. He picked up the form and took a look. He found that there was actually such a high-reward order.
“Isn’t this a gift?” However, upon closer inspection, he discovered that the stamp below was actually an order from the Smollett family!
As a precaution, Rollin used magic to scan the order and discovered that there was a problem with this order.
Under the interference of magic, the 30-day completion date on the order would become 15 days!
Rollin immediately pointed at the completion date on the order. “Master Aurelia, it’s deviated!”
Aurelia Dupont immediately frowned!
“They actually did such a thing. Aren’t they afraid of being blamed by the Empire?!”
Although he was a little unhappy, Aurelia was not single-minded about this.
He immediately patted Rollin’s shoulder and said, “Hurry up and forge first. I’ll go and have a chat with Duke Dupont!”
“Although mine is a branch of the Dupont family, I’m also a Master Blacksmith!”
“Even Duke Dupont will give me some face!”
After saying that, he picked up the form in his hand and headed straight for Duke Dupont’s territory.
Upon hearing his Master’s words, Rollin was a little worried. After all, he was the one who had caused this matter.
‘If Master knew that I had a small relationship with Duke Dupont’s daughter…’
Rollin immediately shook his head and began his work.
Although they were all troublesome orders for armor, it was not impossible to complete them in fifteen days.
Jay had underestimated this workshop.
As he thought about it, Rollin began to forge seriously.
Aurelia Dupont sat in a carriage and arrived at Jeff Dupont’s residence. He thought that he would have to wait for a long time before he could see him.
He did not expect that butler of Jeff Dupont would come to receive him within a few minutes.
In the office of the Duke’s residence.
“Isn’t this Aurelia Dupont? It’s been a long time!”
“I’m really sorry. I’ve been too busy recently when the Empire is about to start a war!”
“Although we are only brothers who have been separated by many generations of bloodlines, we still have a bloodline relationship.”
“Why are you looking for me today?”
“Duke, it’s like this…” Aurelia immediately told the Duke everything.
The Duke took the order form in his hand and asked his chief mage to come over to appraise it. He found that there were many problems with it.
He immediately flew into a rage. “This Smollett! Doesn’t he know that he will be judged by the law of the Empire if he does this!?”
“Moreover, this kind of thing happened in my workshop. Isn’t he looking down on me too much?!”
“Aurelia, I will uphold justice for you in this matter. You should go back first!”
Aurelia did not walk far before the Duke added, “Let that kid Rollin treat my daughter well. Otherwise, one day, I will personally break his legs.”
After Monica returned home, her mother quickly noticed the abnormality on her body. Then, she told her mother everything about her and Rollin.
Then, her mother told these things to the Duke. In the end, the Duke investigated Rollin and found out that he was a member of his family.
So, he was very happy!
If this situation was known to others, they might be shocked to the point that their teeth would fall out.
However, Duke Dupont was someone who protected his own family. Even if it was just a small matter, he would not allow other family members to be impudent towards them.
On the way home, Aurelia had a myriad of thoughts. He never thought that Rollin, that kid, had actually hooked up with the Duke’s daughter.
But on the other hand, this was also good. In the future, no matter what problems Rollin had, his superiors would help him.
This matter could not help but remind him of his past with Ward. If Ward had not been impulsive at that time, he would have gone to the Duke for help.
Perhaps the outcome would have been different now.
But this resentment would definitely not have killed all the enemies. It would have been more satisfying.
“Sigh! The past is the past. Aren’t you living well now?”
After finishing his work, Rollin was ready to go home when he saw that Aurelia’s carriage had already returned to the workshop.
Because he was more worried, he walked to Aurelia’s office and saw that Aurelia was really playing games with Muriel.
Seeing that Rollin had come over, Aurelia immediately sent Muriel to a room at the side.
Then, he quietly asked Rollin, “When did you hook up with the Duke’s daughter?”
“The Duke has already given instructions today. If you treat his daughter badly, he’ll break your legs…”
Rollin did not expect that this matter would be known by his family.
He could only cough awkwardly and explain, “Cough! It’s a long story!”
“Originally, there was nothing between us, but because…”
Rollin briefly told him about his relationship with Monica and also told Master Aurelia about Jay Smollett.
“So that’s how it is. No wonder he came back to find trouble with us. Next time something like this happens, just tell me in advance!”
After saying that, Aurelia lost interest in Rollin and immediately went to play with his granddaughter.
