During these time period of one week Kevin's trained regraslily and Baron Romero had officially announced, "Dmitry and Lawrence's marriage has been overthrown" which shook the area around Dmitry.
People knew what the word break up meant.
It means that Dmitry's protection, who will resolve the conflict with Barco, has disappeared, leaving the Lawrence family alone to prepare for war.
In such a situation, people have a lot to say.
Baron Romero said that the Lawrence family's irresponsible attitude was the reason for the breakup, but the public's interpretation was different.
"The reason for the breakup? it's obvious Viscount of the Lawrence family decided to marry for the sake of the family, but after experiencing Dmitry's idiot firsthand, he couldn't stand it. Other than that, why would Lawrence unilaterally demand an end to the marriage? Even if Barco's blade reached the front of his neck and he made such a decision, then he would have to thought that Dmitry's idiot was worse than the rumors.
But what if there family are destroyed? And there are also rumors about Dmitry's eldest son has subjugated Blood Fang? Than Roman Dimitry is idiot is really true.
"Do you believe in those rumors? There's no way the guy who's been called Dmitry's nerd for decades has subjugated Blood Fang out of the blue. Perhaps he wanted to managed Roman's reputation in advance in case of breakup. It's not that Roman Dmitry wasn't enough, but that Lawrence demanded a divorce seeing idiot Roman."
It was the public opinion, and from it reputation of Roman is still terrible.
Roman Dmitry lived his whole life as an idiot, and Flora Lawrence was praised as the flower of Lawrence.
People blame Roman Dmitry for the reason of breakup, and although the image was improved by the subjugation of Blood Fang, it could not completely change the one-sided perception.
However, the Dmitry family did not show any special movement.
They knew that it was not a fact that could be changed by explaining to people, and it was an undeniable reality that Roman Dmitry lived like previously like idiot.
But Baron Romero trusted Roman.
The recent romance was completely different from the rumors, so he was able to laugh at people's reactions and pass it on.
Day pass by and time for Barco's social gathering party came.
* * *
" Do you really mean to wear this?"
Roman's expression hardened.
His eyes gleamed.
Roman looked tired of the luxurious clothes that caught the eye, decorated with gold thread splendidly.
Hans said, "young master. This is the first public appearance after the breakup. There is the Dmitry family and the status of the master, by the way, to explain about this garment, it is the work of Pierre, a craftsman working in the northeast area, and he spent a really big amount of money to get rid of the waiting of dozens of people in front of him and to make the custom-made clothes. The yangban was not driven solely by money, so it took quite a while to convince him even though he carried a bag of money. But aren't you saying that you won't wear this masterpiece, the fruit of my blood and sweat?
2 weeks ago.
Shortly after Roman announced his intention to attend the party, Hans went looking for clothes.
Check the fabric to see if they were matching color.
Seeing Hans contact famous craftsmen, he realized once again how unusual it was.
And now.
With a resolute attitude that seemed not to tolerate rejection, Roman had no choice but to smile and nod.
People think of the devil when they hear the word heavenly.
A monster that has neither blood nor tears, and cuts the head off at once, even if he asked for his own prisoner.
In fact, there have been times when
In the process of ascending to the summit, there was a case where he condemned his subordinates with the hear, but the usual Roman did not turn away from the devotion of his subordinates.
Hans is a man dedicated to him.
Although the Dmitry family grants him daily bread and salaries, he has a sincere heart for Roman, so he even went in search of craftsman to make clothes for him.
that action.
What's the price for that?
Hans doesn't want material rewards, he just hopes that Roman will happily accept this outfit.
It made Roman laugh.
Because it is an action that is not particularly difficult.
Although the colorful clothes were burdensome enough on the eyes, he showed a smiling face while trying to hide his hardened face.
'Just looking at it makes me choke out of breath, but if the rules of this world are like this, then he need to follow the rules.'
To go the empire.
There is a saying that you must obey the laws of the empire.
Now is the time to adapt.
Just as he had adapted the reality of a child by following instructions from above in a dark cave, Roman knew when to take the initiative and when to follow what was made in advance.
The decision to wear fancy clothes. It means accepting reality, and Roman was adjusting to the new world.
The redemption took quite some time.
Hans' eyes turned into hearts when he finally saw Roman's clothes.
" Really, really cool."(translater --- dam author seriously wrote the same line on his novel)
A combination of black and gold.
In the golden light that bloomed on a serious and charismatic black background, Roman looked like a nobleman with a high reputation.
At that moment Hans was sure.
The main character of this social gathering party will be his master, Roman Dmitry.
* * *
There were going to be two people to accompany him in the social gathering party.
Chris and Kevin.
Since they were being followed as escorts, they were armed differently than usual.
iron-clad, iron-clad.
The rustling of the armor resounded loudly.
As Chris was knighted, he put on custom-made armor, and his body-fitting silver armor gleamed in the sun.
And golden hair fluttering in the wind.
That figure proved why Chris was called a handsome prosecutor, and his dignified posture took his gorgeous appearance for granted.
Shh.
He looked at the sword at the waist.
A sword of a suitable length so as not to touch the ground was engraved with a pattern symbolizing Dmitry.
"Why is he so late?"
Kevin hasn't come out yet.
As the principle is that the escort should finish the preparations before the master, Chris showed a slight dissatisfaction.
That was then.
From afar, a silhouette of a dwarf stature jumped out.
tickle, tickle.
" Sorry!
it was kevin
his look.
Chris was the complete opposite.
Not long ago, for him, who was only a commoner, there was no such thing as custom armor, and he was in his mid-teens normal armour could not fit him.
So he put on armor that matched the size of the blacksmith.
The problem was that even that was too big for Kevin, and Chris had an absurd smile in a helmet big enough to cover most of his sweaty forehead.
'I have to escort Roman with this guy.'
Kevin.
He was just like a boy which became a soldier.
As much as his sloppy appearance, ignorant of the military law system, Kevin couldn't even properly focus on his armor.
When he saw Kevin grabbing the helmet that kept falling off, Chris said in a sharp tone.
"We are the master's escort and the face of Dmitry. Whatever happens outside, don't act hastily. Since the reputation of the master depends on our actions, we should be especially careful with our words and actions."
Last practice match.
Because of that, Chris decided to sincerely follow Roman.
In the past, he wouldn't care how Dmitry's nerd was rated, but now he can't afford to see where Roman is being ignored.
He knew that Roman Dmitry's reputation would soon be his own, so from now on, even for the sake of his master, he had to be careful with his words and deeds.
Kevin was worried.
He doesn't know anything about etiquette, so he might make a mistake at a social gathering party where etiquette is important.
On Chris' words.
Kevin nodded with a serious expression on his face.
" I'll keep that in mind, knight."
Good.
The title of knight.
A smile appeared on Chris' face.
Kevin and he are in the same position, but Kevin still calls Chris 'Knight', perhaps because it seems difficult.
Because of it made him little relieved?
Chris walked over to Kevin and fixed the crooked helmet.
And.
The time has come.
When Roman came out, Chris and Kevin packed their things.
Now it was time to leave for Barco.
* * *
Barco's social gathering party.
The most controversial topic at this party was that Dmitry's eldest son, who broke there marriage with Lawrence would attend.
The party has already started.
The fact that Roman Dmitry had not yet appeared, the drunken nobleman told the man next to him.
"Roman, what the hell is that guy thinking? Barco's eldest son clearly showed he wanted Flora, but he insisted on an arranged marriage, and then abruptly broke the marriage and announced his intention to attend Barco's party.
That's why they're called jerks. If he was a thoughtful guy, he would definitely push one of them."
"Well. The normal way is to either push the arranged marriage to the end to fight against Barco, or to turn away from Lawrence in the first place in order to have a smooth relationship with Barco. Because of Roman Dmitry, the Dmitry family's position has become really ambiguous. It is true that they are the dominant force in the northeast area."
"But they say Roman Dmitry is going to the party to make up for his mistakes. What a funny guy, hahaha."
The nobles laughed.
Roman was the object of ridicule.
The guy who ignored the relationship between the families and behaved his own way, but was abandoned by Flora after his marriage was broken.
The reason for attending this party was obvious.
Abandoned by both sides, he seemed to be trying to restore his relationship with Barco.
all over the party.
Conversations on the topic of Roman blossomed.
Most of them had experienced Roman, so there was no hesitation in their remarks that demeaned Roman.
aristocratic crowd.
Even there, Roman's reputation was low.
Dmitry's background prevented him from being ignored face to face, but they couldn't help but gossip from behind.
in such a situation.
A noblewoman who didn't know Roman asked.
"Who is Roman Dmitry?"
"You will see it for yourself. He has a dirty appearance, and his physique is small, so he has no good looks. But how bluffed he was to be Dmitry's eldest son. He had a bad reputation from the beginning among the nobility. To put it bluntly, if I had been Flora Lawrence, I would have bitten my tongue against marrying him."
"Is it that bad?"
"Did you just call him Dmitry's nerd? The chimneys don't smoke at all times, and his reputation at social parties is low."
That was then.
When the party is about to ripen.
Barco's servant exclaimed with a deep voice.
"Roman Dmitry, the eldest son of the Dmitry family, enters."
Roman.
At that name, the attention of people who had been talking about it until recently was focused at once.
And.
The door opened, and Roman entered the party hall.
