Disappointing Teleportation Magic ~ Even Though The Movement Distance Is Only 1 Millimeter, I Will Rise Through Ingenuity ~ - Chapter 65.3

“I’m sure you already know, but I’ve removed the bruise on Prince Alberic’s face. The more I hesitate to go to Fulmelinta, the more the throne will tip in favor of Prince Alberic. Are you really okay with that?”

“You… we should have dealt with you back then…”

“Saying things that weren’t asked of you… Confessing without even apologizing, how does that benefit you? If you’re nobles trying to protect your own houses, think a little before you act.”

Count Zarettino remained clenching his fist, and Oules continued standing, glaring silently at me.

The one who suddenly spoke up from beside them was Count Egmont Carveln.

“No… Marquis Kirikaze is absolutely right. I deeply apologize for all the past discourtesies.”

“You… are you planning to betray us, Egmont?!”

“Betray? What are you talking about, Lord Zarettino?”

Egmont Carveln, a man who looked to be in his early thirties with a long face, seemed about ten years younger than Count Zarettino.

He wasn’t fat, but he didn’t look particularly muscular either.

“You’re trying to curry favor with this insolent brat and gain favor with Prince Alberic, aren’t you?”

“What nonsense. Marquis Kirikaze is going to Fulmelinta. Even if I tried to smooth things over now, I wouldn’t expect any favors from Prince Alberic.”

“Then why…”

“Because it’s in our best interest.”

“Guh…”

Just as Count Zarettino faltered, Viscount Belschelte spoke up.

“That’s right… Marquis Kirikaze, I also offer my apologies.”

“Jurgen, you too…?”

“I-I apologize as well, Lord Kirikaze.”

Baron Codori also bowed his head to me, and Count Zarettino angrily stood up from his seat.

“Humph! Spineless cowards, do as you like!”

“Y-you’ll regret this… you common-born upstart!”

Following Count Zarettino, who stomped out of the room, Oules also left.

After seeing the two leave, I turned to face the three who remained.

“So, can I assume we’ll have a more meaningful discussion now?”

“Yes, once again, I am Egmont Carveln. Pleased to meet you.”

“I’m Yuto Kirikaze. Likewise, it’s a pleasure, though it’ll be a short one.”

After exchanging formal greetings with the three who remained, led by Count Carveln, we confirmed the process for going to Fulmelinta.

It seems I’ll accompany the Fulmelinta delegation as they retreat, going with them to the front lines along with negotiators from both sides.

We’ll leave this inn tomorrow morning, and by the evening, I’ll meet with Fulmelinta’s negotiators.

Honestly, it’s just a matter of a couple of days. Couldn’t they have made it more pleasant?
