Shota’s Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 290 Royal Audience (6)



When the king heard this, he narrowed his eyes to look at the minister who had spoken.

This minister was the current head of the foreign affairs department, Marquis Bloom.

When Marquis Bloom felt the king’s eyes glaring at him, he couldn’t help feeling a chill run down his spine. This pressure was so much that he even wanted to take a few steps and shrink his neck back.

However, he knew that he couldn’t show any weakness at this point.

So Marquis Bloom just stood firm even under the pressure of the king.

Everyone looked at Marquis Bloom with looks of pity.

After all, they knew that he would be sacrificed for what they all wanted. The person that spoke first would naturally soak up the rage of the king for being interrupted like this, making it easier for the others to speak.

But no matter what, even if it meant enraging the king, they had to say something.

After all, there was something that this Baron Zwein…no, it was Viscount Zwein now…There was something that this Viscount Zwein had that they wanted.

But to their surprise, the king just gave a nod and said, “Say what you want.”

Marquis Bloom couldn’t help revealing a surprised look when he heard this since he was already expecting to be chewed out by the king for his sudden outburst.

Still, since he had received permission from the king, Marquis Bloom didn’t waste any time in asking, “Viscount Zwein, I’ve heard rumours that you’ve been able to befriend an elven village. Can you confirm if that is true?”

When I heard this, I wasn’t surprised at all since I had already expected this to happen.

I just calmly looked at Marquis Bloom who asked this question and said, “That’s correct. I’ve been able to build a friendship with the elves that live in my territory and in my territory alone.”

Marquis Bloom knitted his brows, especially at the latter half of my words since I was making something very clear to him with those words. But still, Marquis Bloom gave a cough to clear his throat before saying, “Then could it be said that you have a way of contacting the elves? As well as the ability to negotiate with them over matters?”

I could guess what he was going to ask, but to establish my position, I just simply gave a nod.

At this, the eyes of all of the ministers and generals lit up.

Once again, I wasn’t surprised by this since Scar had already made it clear how important this connection to the elves was.

So I could already guess what they were planning on asking next.

Marquis Bloom said in a slow voice, “If it is possible, can you connect our foreign affairs department to the elves?”

I just narrowed my eyes to look at Marquis Bloom after this.I think you should take a look at

Marquis Bloom couldn’t help feeling a bit of pressure coming from me, even though he couldn’t understand why he was feeling this pressure from someone like me.

Marquis Bloom gave a cough to calm himself down before explaining, “You should know that it’s not just your territory, but there are other territories that have elves in them. They just take up our land and keep to themselves, so it’s hard for us to deal with them. Who knows if…”

Before he could finish, I suddenly said, “People like you will never gain the friendship of the elves.”

When Marquis Bloom heard this, his face twisted before he asked, “What do you mean by that?”

“People that only care about material gains like you will never be able to connect with the elves.” I said in a calm voice.

When they heard this, it wasn’t just Marquis Bloom whose face twisted. The faces of the other ministers and generals twisted to varying degrees.

The room fell into a deathly silence after this was said.

But Marquis Bloom didn’t allow this to bother him for long as he said, “Then since only you are capable of communicating with the elves, would you mind coming to our foreign affairs department? You should know that this is a matter of national security, so we would be grateful for any help that you could give us.”

Since he couldn’t communicate with the elves himself, he chose to get the next best thing…the only person that could communicate with the elves.

As long as he could control this person, it would be simple for him to manipulate the matters with the elves.𝑛𝐎𝒱𝑬𝑙𝒩𝔢xt.𝑪𝒐𝑚

After he said this, Marquis Bloom then turned to the king and said, “Your majesty, I would like to make a formal request for Viscount Zwein to join the foreign affairs department. With his help, I’m certain that we will be able to create a working relationship with the elves.”

His words sounded righteous, but it was clear that he was trying to pull me into the foreign affairs department that he was in charge of.

Once I was there, it would be easy for Marquis Bloom to use his influence to force me to do things for him.

He even tried to use the influence of the king to make this happen by making that request.

But before anyone else could respond, Scar said, “I would like to remind Marquis Bloom that Viscount Zwein is a member of our Shadow Garden. At the same time, I would like to point out that Viscount Zwein is currently on a mission for our organization, so he has no free time to spare for this matter.”

After Marquis Bloom heard this, he deeply knitted his brows.

But he wasn’t suppressed as he said, “I’m sure that Shadow Garden can spare one of its members at a time like this. After all, this is a matter that involves national security, so it should be more important than any other mission that you currently have.”

Scar was about to open his mouth to refute this, but there was another voice that cut him off.

The king said in a stern voice, “Enough.”
