Chapter 6-1
Chapter 6-1
The royal palace was the residence of the king, and the direct royal family, as well as a place where officials gathered to perform their duties.
Usually, when appointing officials, only nobles were considered as candidates, and their qualifications were verified through exams at regular intervals.
As they were essentially direct royal officials, many nobles considered it an honorable position and could receive significant salaries and corresponding treatment.
As a result, competition was inevitable, and some nobles spent years preparing for the official exams.
Kaltz Laird passed the central official exam at the age of 21 and has been working as a third-grade palace administrator ever since.
Once inside the palace, one could meet many nobles and occasionally even the king or the direct royal family. Over time, one naturally forms connections and influence through the process of socializing with them.
Sion knew this and wanted to use Kaltzs connections.
What kind of thing is it?
Its an herb. Its quite rare, and its hardly known to the public.
Even pharmacists did not know the purpose of the herb.
The herb was difficult to obtain, and even if used as medicine, it did not have any effect. It had to be obtained in large quantities and a specific manufacturing method had to be followed to obtain the appropriate efficacy.
Its not like drugs, is it? If it is, I cant help you.
Its not drugs. Its not intended for bad use. If youre suspicious, you can check it yourself.
Really? Whats the name of the herb?
Limpia Machina. Its not a dangerous herb. I hope you can find it and buy it in bulk. Ill cover the cost.
After coming to this world, Sion had tried to find Limpia Machina many times. But he couldnt find it easily, and he couldnt investigate the entire region of the Alaine Kingdom on his own.
Perhaps with Kaltzs connections, he could find someone who owns Limpia Machina.
In bulk? Is it not dangerous?
No. If you may not believe me, but why dont you ask a pharmacist?
Hmm
Kaltz takes the first step while still in deep thought.
Sion usually lived quietly in the mansion and often kept a low profile when meeting people. He didnt have a specific goal in mind and enjoyed reading and walking, and stayed away from alcohol or gambling.
In contrast, the current Sion was showing a cold and proactive side, having even accepted the marriage proposal from the bandit princess.
Sion.
Yes, brother.
Youre not really trying to do something bad, are you?
Im not going to use it for bad things, so that leaves one answer.
Using it for something good?
Yes. Ill use it for something good. Its for my own use, so it wouldnt be anything bad, right?
He had to take Limpi Dekina to use that sword. Of course, there were other things he needed to obtain, and it would cost a considerable amount of money to acquire them one by one.
However, with the wealth and reputation of the Marquis Laird, it would be easier to obtain them.
Can I watch how you use it?
Yes, thats fine. Im the one who will eat it anyway.
Ah is that so?
Kaltz finally relaxes and remembers the name of the herb. He had adapted perfectly to his administrative duties and had even built a friendly relationship with some nobles and aristocrats.
He didnt know how rare Limpi Dekina was, but with the connections he had, he would find a way to obtain it.
I dont understand why you need to eat it. What are you trying to do with it?
