A Narrow-Eyed Nobleman Is Always Misunderstood - Chapter 229



Episode 229 – Good Things and Bad Things

Irene, who had given Alberto a gift but was rejected, surprisingly left the scene without saying a word.

After leaving the banquet hall, she was not seen again until the banquet was over.

People watched as Irene failed to attract her talent and walked away.

However, they soon forgot about Irene and began to focus on Alberto again.

Although the successor to the Grand Duchy of Galois was great, he was nothing compared to Alberto, who rose to the level of a sword master at a young age and was awarded the title of marquis.

Rather, Irene’s active attempts at seduction had the positive result of increasing Alberto’s ransom.

People tried to impress Alberto by talking to him a little more.

It was an attempt to point out Alberto in advance as the next-generation leader who will lead the next era and give him a good hand.

So Alberto had to spend a hectic time shaking hands and saying hello to everyone gathered there until the banquet ended.

As time passed, the line of handshakes that seemed like it would never end diminished.

Now the banquet was coming to an end and everyone was leaving.

Alberto knew that if he, the main character of the banquet, left first, the others would also return, so he voluntarily left the banquet hall first, and the banquet ended shortly after.

After the banquet, Alberto and Nina returned to the Meydern family estate and hurried to prepare for the wedding.

Alberto was promoted to marquis with a new castle and had to leave the Maidern family.

Dito Rio was disappointed that his eldest son could not continue the family.

However, since there were other children besides Alberto, the future of the family had to be entrusted to them now.

Alberto was now given the last name ‘Geneltus’ and now had to live as the head of the Geneltus family.

However, since Alberto had not yet been granted territory, he intended to stay in the capital for the time being.

Living in the capital required a place to live, so Alberto and Nina had to find a place to live in the capital.

The price of the mansion in Tintaluna, the capital of the Bregerne Empire, was overwhelmingly expensive.

It was so expensive that even seeing ordinary people was prohibitive.

However, Alberto had a secret weapon.

It was the money that had been collected so far and various treasures taken while robbing El-Romed’s safe.

If he used just 1% of the gold coins he had saved, he could easily purchase an expensive mansion located in the best location in Tintaluna.

In other words, purchasing a mansion for Alberto is not that difficult.

When purchasing the mansion, the Duke of Bedoran stepped forward and sent someone to help Alberto complete the transaction smoothly.

Alberto was able to purchase the house at its original price thanks to a person sent by the Duke of Bedoran.

Alberto, who had prepared a house like that, finally moved into the mansion and was putting down his belongings and tidying up.

“Anyway, neither of us have much luggage.”

“I know, right. “I have less luggage than I thought.”

Alberto and Nina’s luggage was barely enough to fill one wagon.

It was a shame that Elena had taken care of all this, otherwise she would have had so little luggage that she could have just put it on her horse’s saddle.

“I’m glad I have less luggage.”

“I guess so.”

It didn’t take that long to pack up.

All organizing was completed by putting clothes into the furniture purchased in advance and organizing each person’s belongings.

Of course, the place where the two would sleep was decided.

The small bedroom between each individual room was where the two would sleep from now on.

This was because there was a promise between the two.

No matter how busy you are, sleep in your bedroom.

This was due to Elena’s advice that not sleeping together in the bedroom with the excuse of being busy could have a negative impact on their relationship.

Alberto and Nina took Elena’s advice and decided to share the same bedroom.

“Then let’s call it a night and start working tomorrow.”

“Yes. “I do that.”

That’s how Alberto and Nina’s day in the capital came to an end.

◈

The successor to the Grand Duchy of Galois could be said to be Irene Svartina Galois, both in name and reality.

She won the fight to become the Archduke of Galois and solidified her position as her successor.

Irene executed all those who threatened her life.

He thought that if even the slightest repercussions remained, they would one day threaten his position.

This is an obstacle to enjoying the sweet honeymoon life she dreams of with Alberto.

So Irene consolidated her position, and she did not let her presence threaten it.

However, little by little, the seeds of conflict began to sprout among those who thought that her child, Rene, was not in danger.

“Damn, what a fucking whore!”

From noble mtl dot come

He was a direct descendant of the Galois family, but because he was a child out of wedlock, he inherited only his last name and was actually treated as a collateral.

Bill Hecaton Galois was drinking one glass after another at his house

“Stop it, Bill. “I think I drank too much today.”

Anton, Bill’s best friend and butler, was worried about his friend

It was because of Irene Svartina Galois, Bill, that he had been in a state of despair since daytime.

As Irene won the competition to become her successor, her successor, whom Bill was following, lost his life.

In the process, Bill’s loved ones also lost their lives.

Because he is a direct descendant of the Galois family.

But Bill survived.

Why? Because he was a child out of wedlock, he inherited direct blood, but his actual treatment was because he was a collateral descendant.

So Bill was able to escape Irene’s cruel hands.

A normal person would think he was lucky to have survived and would never be seen again.

But Bill was no ordinary person.

The reason he cooperated with his direct descendants who were competing for succession was because he also had a desire to rise to a higher position.

It is natural for illegitimate children to be treated as collateral, even though they are direct by bloodline.

Because that is common sense in this world.

However, Bill tried to help a legitimate successor become the next archduke.

In return, he agreed to be recognized as a direct descendant of the Galois family and receive a title that could be passed on to his descendants as a vassal of the family.

From Bill’s point of view, he entered the race for successor, feeling like he was taking a gamble rather than being in an ambiguous position.

However, it was Irene who won the successor competition.

She executed all those who lost in the race to succeed her, solidifying her position.

“Damn, if the person I was pushing became the successor, I would become a noble, and you would also become a noble.”

“Stop drinking. Then I will collapse.”

“It’s noisy!”

Even though Bill had a friend who comforted her, she was twisted by the thought that all her plans had gone wrong.

Anton, looking at Bill, could only sigh.

“Well, then, how about gambling one more time?”

“What?”

Just as Bill was being pushed to one side mentally, Anton smiled and hinted at a suggestion to Bill.

“Gambling?”

“Okay. Gambling. If you’re going to give up anyway, wouldn’t it be better to at least struggle?”

“Foot… “Evil?”

Anton’s voice sounded like an angel to Bill, who was in a state of extreme mental distress and her judgment was impaired by her drinking.

“W-what method is there?”

When Anton brought up her comment about gambling, Bill approached him and asked if there was any way.

Bill knew very well that she would never propose to him unless she had a man named Anton.

So she had no choice but to cling to Anton’s words to her.

“Do you know why Irene wants to become the successor to the Grand Duchy of Galois?”

“Why?”

“This is because if he becomes the ruler of the Grand Duchy of Galois, he will be able to draw on the power of beings sealed in this land.”

“What?”

Bill felt like Anton was playing a prank on him.

“Do I look like someone who would play a prank on you?”

“That’s not it…”

“Okay. At least I never play pranks on you.”

“So, what should I do?”

Bill asked Anton what he should do.

Then Anton smiled kindly and opened his mouth.

“It’s simple. “You just have to enter the sanctuary together, where only people from the Galois family are allowed to enter.”

“Is that really enough?”

Bill was suspicious of Anton’s words

I suddenly became slightly reluctant to talk about the sanctuary.

“That’s right. Inside, there is a sealed entity that provides power to Archduke Galois. All you have to do is make the power of that existence yours.”

“Okay… Then it’s okay.”

Bill eventually fell for Anton’s sweet trick.

If what Anton said is true, shouldn’t he gain that power and ascend to the position of Archduke Galois?

“Let’s go right now.” “I have to go now.”

After saying those words, Bill opened the door of his house and went out.

A smile appeared on Anton’s lips as he saw Bill like that.

“Come, the end. “Your return is not far off.”

The wind blew and blew Anton’s hair as he spoke incomprehensible words.

Behind his ear, which was covered by his hair, an ominous inverted pentagram tattoo was shining
