Disappointing Teleportation Magic ~ Even Though The Movement Distance Is Only 1 Millimeter, I Will Rise Through Ingenuity ~ - Chapter 56.2

Back in Japan, I was born and raised in an ordinary family, so I had no connection to high society or social circles. Although I have the powerful connection of Alberic, I’m still uncertain about how to navigate life in a class-based society.

So, I decided to rely on Araseli to evaluate those seeking treatment. She will provide me with information about which faction the person belongs to, their position in their family, and what kind of return I can expect if I proceed with the treatment.

It feels somewhat unsavory to seek such rewards for removing a bruise, but it’s necessary to survive as a noble in the Kingdom of Yurefelt.

Honestly, the tasks facing a kid who was just an ordinary high schooler not long ago are far too heavy.

On top of all this, I will also have responsibilities as a lord.

Once my domain is decided, Alberic will apparently arrange for a suitable steward to assist me.

At first, I had no idea what to do as a lord, but Alberic says he’ll appoint someone knowledgeable about the land to assist in their role as a deputy. Of course, they will also conduct background checks, so I doubt it will be anyone questionable.

As Alberic’s treatment progressed smoothly, the counterattack against Fulmelinta also seemed to be gaining momentum.

In addition to the forces of Viscount Selkink reclaiming the Eberwein territory from the north, there were similar attacks being launched from the south.

The Fulmelinta forces attempted to lure Yurefelt’s troops into a trap, but by carefully expanding their control without pursuing too aggressively, they were steadily reclaiming the occupied areas.

While Fulmelinta is sending reinforcements and supplies, they seem to be retreating due to the pressure from Yurefelt’s troops advancing from three sides.

Araseli estimates it will take another two months to completely retake the Eberwein territory. The question is, do we view this as having two more months left, or only two months remaining?

This period is also a grace period before I officially debut as a noble. I want to make the most of it, so I’ve decided to start treating those who request it as soon as tomorrow.

It seems that Lady Ludienne had already been gathering those who wished to remove their blemishes by the time Alberic’s treatment was nearing completion.

“Sir Kirikaze, the first person you will be treating is Signe, the second daughter of Viscount Niskanen.”

“Which faction does Viscount Niskanen belong to?”

“He’s with the Second Prince’s faction but seems to be wavering about switching sides.”

“So you intend to push him to make a decision with my treatment?”

“You’re absolutely right. If Signe’s birthmark completely disappears, she will undoubtedly switch sides.”

Originally, it seemed that Viscount Niskanen was not a devoted supporter of the Second Prince.

Adding to Bernort’s reckless behavior, he was growing weary of being asked to contribute funds and soldiers for the ongoing war with Fulmelinta.

Signe’s birthmark appeared to still be visible on her face, and she appeared with most of it hidden by cloth, leaving only her eyes exposed. Her mother, the Viscountess, accompanied her.

“Lord Kirikaze, please, could you remove my daughter’s birthmark?”

“May I take a look at it first?”

“Yes, of course.”

Signe’s birthmark extended from the bridge of her nose to under her left eye, roughly the size of two 500-yen coins.

“What do you think?”

“Yes, with this size, I should be able to remove it in four or five days.”

“Really?!”

It seemed that Signe had just turned thirteen this year, and after hearing her friends around her talking about engagements, she had become more withdrawn. Since she had a pale complexion and delicate features, the birthmark stood out even more.

“Yes, it’s true. However, since it’s a delicate procedure, your full cooperation will be essential.”

“Of course, if it will make this birthmark disappear, I’ll do anything.”
