Restart in the World of Gender Reversal - Chapter 117



117 – Territory Collapse

Normally, the inhabitants of the territory are free to move, but they are not free to choose where to live.

No, to be precise.

It is free, but should I say that there is such a big penalty?

If you change your residence once, you will be subject to a penalty for not being able to change your residence for an additional 10 years.

You must pay a change of residence in units of large silver.

A change of residence does not mean much to the villagers.

Even if you do not change your residence, you can buy and live in a house in another area

I travel the world, and I don’t feel any penalty for being away for decades.

However, it is one of the serious problems for the lord.

All villagers pay taxes to the lord of their residence

The lord pays taxes to the royal family with the taxes he earns and grows the territory.

And, it is because a territory without a territory disbanded, and the lord is no longer a lord.

“But does that make sense? The change of residence fee is not even a penny, but it was decided to pay it to all the migrants.”

“Whoa… So Jim did a bit of searching.”

Christina pulled an envelope of her letter from between her breasts.

And then handed it to Selena, opened her contents hastily and checked.

Her face was stained with bewilderment and absurdity.

“This worm-like b*tch… It seems she has been determined and prepared since my mother withdrew from the lord.”

It was Alice, not Selena, who spoke harsh words.

There was a person who had a personal grudge against Alice.

Because John’s name was written on it.

Selena was just making a dejected expression.

Because she had no face to show her daughter.

Now, with her young daughter, only 19 years old, barely taking her place as a lord,

Because the territory is about to be disbanded due to their own problems.

No, the territory is disbanded when there are already 0 permanent residents.

It was confirmed.

As a count, the title will be maintained, but the estate will be disbanded and

I will become a noble of the law.

But the important thing is that she has nowhere to go.

The Duchy of Sieghart is already being raised well by her eldest daughter, Irina.

Other sisters are also active as lords in their respective domains.

There is no place for her to intervene.

Besides, my parents were living in the royal castle

That she has no place to put her body.

“Don’t worry, that problem can be summoned to the castle.”

“However…”

“Even if I don’t do that, Yuk will use evil to bring me back somehow.

How terribly he thinks of his older sister and younger brothers.”

Considering the behavior he has shown towards his family thus far,

It was a completely natural sound.

Either have her eldest sister tied up in the royal castle, or bring her mother and younger sister to the royal castle…

I can’t think of my family terribly, and I wonder if I’m too obsessed with it.

“Whoa…”

Selina sighed deeply.

Sorry and relief flowed out at the same time.

Although she was a daughter, even though she was raised strongly and strictly.

She loved her children more than anyone else.

I can’t help it now with the territory and the lordship, but

I only wanted to have a comfortable life and not have to suffer for nothing.

***

Wake up in the morning

Her mother was sitting on the chair next to her bed and stroking my hair.

In the back were Mr. Rain, Alice, and Lara.

What’s going on?

“Why are you all gathering in the morning?”

I rubbed my eyes lightly and got up and sat down on the bed.

The heater was on, but Lara left the door open to ventilate.

A cold wind blew in, so I pulled the blanket all the way up and covered it.

“I have something urgent to tell Yuk.”

“…Looking at this crowd, it seems like they’re in a lot of hurry?”

Everyone brought chairs and sat down.

When my mother started to wear it.

“There seems to be a problem with Yurie’s estate.”

“Little sister’s estate? What the hell…”

Yurie… The little sister’s manor is a really small fishing village.

I heard that it is less than 1,000 households.

What kind of trouble happened in such a peaceful place?

“It is said that all of the permanent residents have moved to other lands.”

“Residence…Everyone?!”

“Yes, so Yurie’s lord’s title was lost at midnight today.”

Is there such a thing as nonsense?

There is no way people living in rural villages can pay the transfer fee in units of large silver coins.

Even if it is simply converted, it is in units of 10 million won.

“It’s hard to tell you the details right now… But Yurie doesn’t have anywhere to go right now.”

I guess so.

“First of all, I’ll call my little sister to the royal castle, and I’ll think about the rest later.”

“That…That’s right…”

“Mom?”

“Could Yuk call Yurie and tell her to come to the castle?”

Ah.

I get it roughly.

It seems that the mother is in a difficult situation to speak directly.

Looking at Alice making a similar expression,

It must be because of the reasons related to the two.

From noble mtl dot com

Perhaps it has something to do with politics.

I just nodded and picked up my phone.

I pressed my little sister’s number shortener.

*

– So, come to the royal castle tomorrow. Understand?

“Okay. Don’t sleep worrying about your sister until late at night.”

– You know what’s more scary because you’re calm?

I was eating, washing, and resting in a quiet hotel when I got a call from Yuk.

I used to think it would have already been known to my mother, but

I didn’t expect you to tell Yuk.

Mama seems to be quite apologetic, but

I’m not very impressed.

I was also the landlord that was falling apart in the first place, and even before I took office,

It was because it was an abandoned territory where young people were being taken away from here and there.

In addition, the quality of the land is not good?

Grain production was also hitting bottom.

I wondered who the hell would receive such a territory.

By the way, I got it by chance

I thought I was entrusted with a troublesome task.

The villagers also use this territory as a bed town rather than farming.

It felt like going to work in a large estate next door.

Not too much was collected in taxes.

In the first place, Yeongji had no dreams or hopes.

The high lord next to me gave me a smash.

“I’m not pretending to be grave, it’s really okay.

You know my sister’s personality, right?”

– Well, yes, but…

“Rather, it’s better because I can live with you in the castle.”

– Are you really okay?

“Ah! It’s okay!”

He shouted loudly.

I can’t see it because it’s over my phone

I could see that Yuk was covering his ears to avoid the noise.

“I’ll go up tomorrow, so please open the door, Your Highness.”

– All of a sudden, honorifics…

‘Stop it!’ I shouted loudly and the phone hung up.

I think I hung up the phone too.

I lay sprawled on the bed and closed my eyes.

If it were normal, I’d still be sitting in my chair and doing my business.

Let alone washing, I fell asleep and couldn’t even wash for a day or two.

How about rice?

There were plenty of vegetables because it was in the countryside, but

It was a bit difficult to find ham or meat that would go well with it.

Compared to that, the taste of the ham sandwich I ordered from the hotel service earlier

It was excellent.

Remembering the taste, he smacked his lips again.

“Still… It’s a bit lonely…”

The taste of meat and cheese was excellent, but the vegetables and fruits eaten in Yeongji

I feel like it was fresher and full of flavor.

It’s not like beautifying memories

The quality was definitely better.

“Still, I endured for three years… Great, bad!”

I stretched out while lying down and put a pillow next to my head.

I plan to take a nap after a long time.

When you wake up from a deep sleep, call Yuke again

I’m bored… I have to say…

*

“Mom, don’t worry too much. My little sister doesn’t seem to be okay.”

“Really?”

“Don’t you remember the day before leaving for the manor?

“I can’t forget that…”

Is it because you don’t want to leave the territory?

Reminds me of my older sister who had crumpled her face and turned it into a porridge.

Looking at that, he was really annoying.

I was sincere enough to admit that I am bothered by everything.

‘She doesn’t particularly want to take on the lord’s job.’

That was my conclusion.

And through a quick phone call

I also confirmed again that my conclusion was unmistakably true.

“Haa… By the way, she lost her lordship, so she can’t even get married…”

“Why can’t I get married?”

“How can you protect your husband when you can’t even protect the common people? It’s a stigma that feels like that.”

I can’t help it if that’s the case.

I feel sorry for my little sister, but I think she should live alone for the rest of her life.

By the way, she was only 16. She became a lord and she lasted for 3 years.

Can you forgive me for that much?

“Well, she has no husband and no children, so she can’t live on her own on the annual noble pension.

She can live in abundance. She doesn’t have to feel sorry for her.”

“Does it come out that much?”

“Two large silver coins come out every month.”

A count’s monthly salary is 2,000 + alpha…?

You really don’t have to work, do you?
