"You deceived me, Roland!"

During the hearing.

I approached Roland, who was sitting cross-legged on the throne, I held his tight chest and yelled at him.

After all, it's only natural that Roland, who I thought wouldn't last long, would show a healthy appearance when the confusion was over and the cleaning was almost over.

Roland seemed to be having a lot of fun even though he was holding his chest.

—It's disrespectful for you to say and do that at the award ceremony venue, but today I am in a good mood, so I will forgive you.

The riots that took place in the royal capital were quelled and the Award ceremony began.

Therefore, now there were some nobles and soldiers who participated in the repression.

Roland, who was dying from the poison, appeared and everyone was puzzled.

The royals next to him were, too.

Milaine was holding her mouth with both hands, and Julian and Jake seemed to make a face from "Ah ~, as I thought".

These guys thought Roland was a man who wouldn't die if they tried to kill him.

Minister Bernard and others had a face of disgust and indifference.

I questioned Roland.

"Was it a lie that you were dying from the poison !?

-Moron. It is true that they poisoned me and it is true that I did not feel well. But when everything finished, I mysteriously regained my energy. Right now my heart aches to give everyone a hard time.

I felt my stomach churn from those lie lines.

-You deceived me?

"Remember, brat. In this world, the culprit is the one who was fooled. I have a certain thanks for your dedication. We must give you credit for successfully crushing Rachelle's ambitions and eliminate the rioters lurking in the royal capital.”

When I saw Roland smile, I broke out in a cold sweat.

-Wait a minute.

"Unfortunately, I cannot accept that request. ....... Marquis Baltfault will be promoted to the rank of Duke for his services!”

-What.....!?

I thought that I would not ascend any further, but I still got a higher title.

Roland waved me away and rose from his throne, acting like he was enjoying it.

"Rejoice, brat! Rachelle's Holy Kingdom has reached the limit of its fury after defeating the Paladin. It seems that the amount of your reward has increased by order of the Holy King and is equivalent to 10 million Dia. This amount is unheard of even in neighboring countries. You are a great celebrity!”

10 million Dia. In Japanese yen, the prize was worth one billion.

It seems that the Holy Kingdom of Rachelle learned of the failure of their plan and immediately increased the amount of my reward.

"T-Ten million."

I couldn't help but hate Roland's happy look.

When I took a few steps back, Roland came over to me and put his hand on my shoulder.

"Thank you for everything you've done to clean up this annoying job. It feels good to move up and be at the level of the Redgrave family? I would love to hear it.”

-......It's awful.

When I glared at Roland, he gave me a big hateful smile.

"It was worth the effort hearing you say that."

As the people around me looked at Roland and showed a complicated face, I swore to take revenge on him.
