The Young Noble Ascendant-Chapter 49: An Unexpected Plan
|Western Continent|
"Have you heard? They say that in the eastern Continent there is a Merchant guild that is holding a large-scale auction." Said a customer who was buying weapons at the western Continent in the city market.
This was also heard by the noble family of Leonhardt. He was Vincent Leonhardt, the fourth child of the head of the Leonhardt family,Gideon Leonhardt. And he has a 4-Star, D Rank level.
"Huh? The Merchant guild that is still being talked about a lot right?" Vincent said with curiosity regarding the guild.
Then, several other people also seemed curious and wanted to hear the story from one of the customers who knew the news.
The customer also told the story clearly and meaningfully, as if telling a fairy tale to children.
"Ugh, why is he talking in such an old-fashioned way." Said one of the Knights from the Leonhardt family who tried to listen to the story.
Shortly after hearing the story, one of the Knight Leonhardt explained it briefly to young master Vincent.
According to the Knight, this Merchant guild originated from the eastern continent.
And the center of this guild is in the territory of the noble family De Valemir.
Hearing this, young master Vincent became even more interested in seeing the Merchant guild in person.
However, the real goal was to see the princess of the De Valemir family.
Because according to the customer who told this news, the princess of the De Valemir family is the most beautiful girl in the kingdom of Veltrazia.
Even some noble families seemed interested in getting the girl as a daughter-in-law in their family.
However, this was immediately rejected by the head of the De Valemir family, because at that time the De Valemir princess was still a child, seven years old.
Vincent Leonhardt became even more interested, and wanted to rush to the western region.
However, the journey to the eastern continent takes about five to seven days, because the distance is very long.
They had to turn around first to head to the eastern continent, because if they wanted to get there quickly, they had to pass through the forbidden forest, namely the Ardentfall forest.
Meanwhile, the forest is full of monsters that are difficult to defeat.
All the citizens of the western continent know that there was once a noble family, Von Caerstellar, who died tragically in that forest.
And for this, Vincent immediately rushed back to his family to ask for permission to travel to the eastern continent.
"Greetings, Father..."
"I request permission to travel to the eastern continent."
"I think if we can buy potions from the Merchant guild... maybe we can also strengthen the Leonhardt family’s forces."
"And the most important reason is... I want to propose to the princess of the De Valemir family."
When he heard this, Gideon was shocked.
He thought his son was just joking, because Gideon knew that his youngest son was very spoiled.
Then, Gideon tried to ask his son again.
"Son, do you really want to propose to the daughter of the De Valemir family?"
"Do you know who they are?"
Gideon asked Vincent firmly, to make sure whether Vincent was serious or just joking.
"I’m serious, dad." Vincent said with a face that tried to persuade his father to agree to the request he made.
Gideon immediately gave Vincent his approval, but with one condition.
Vincent must be able to gain the trust of the Merchant guild, and be able to carry out cooperation with the guild.
And Gideon also gave five days to prepare his last child’s journey to the De Valemir family territory.
Because Gideon had to send a letter of his visit to the De Valemir family.
Gideon uses newspapers delivered using magic birds, namely ’Wingpost’.
Wingpost is a letter carrier or is usually used for communication between nobles and other nobles, over very long distances, and is similar to a bird because it can fly.
The delivery of the letter will take approximately two days.
"Okay, I’ve sent our visit letter to the De Valemir family."
"And you better start preparing yourself, kid."
"I will find some bodyguards for your trip to the eastern continent."
And finally, Vincent managed to get his father’s approval.
He also made preparations for the necessities he would bring.
After that, Vincent also wanted to invite some of his friends to join him in heading to the eastern continent.
Vincent’s friends have a slightly lower rank than Vincent, they each have a 2-Star, D Rank level.
"Looks like I’ll have to invite the three of them."
"Who knows, they will also meet beautiful girls in the eastern region, haha."
However, Vincent’s father did not know that his son would bring some very naughty friends.
Because his friend often causes trouble, even playing with women.
Then...
The next day, Vincent began his journey to the east.
He was with several guards that amounted to around fifteen 5 Star, C Rank to 1 Star, B Rank level guards.
And Vincent’s father gave a warning to Vincent and said
"Alright, kid.. Your trip to the eastern continent is long enough."
"Probably about five days to reach the destination."
"And remember! Never cause trouble in other areas, because it could have a bad impact on our family, son."
Vincent’s journey begins, in order to gain cooperation with the Merchant of Staellar and also to submit a proposal letter to the De Valemir family.
.....
Then in the Caerstellar region, Theo is planning something to solve the problems of his family’s Merchant guild.
Because he thought of using the method he had been saving up until now when his Merchant guild was in a corner. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
And from here the Merchant of Staellar will start a trade war with the Merchant of the family.
Theo also would not have guessed that in the near future, approximately five days, he would also meet Leonhardt’s family who had once betrayed him and destroyed his family along with several other nobles.
