Chapter: 1104

Cale paid no attention to Raon�s words and acted as if they were background music. The Count gave his son an order as the Lord of the territory.

�I will leave that to you.�

�Yes sir.�

Cale chatted with the Count about some other things as well before getting up. Count Deruth started to speak again as Cale headed for the door.

�Show your face every so often, even if you are busy. Your mother and siblings are waiting for you.�

�I understand. I will try to spend the beginning of the year here.�

�Good.�

Cale walked out of the office.

Kim Rok Soo, who had become Cale. As someone who did not have any blood relatives for a long time, these conversations always made him feel a bit awkward.

However, he did not have time to continue to feel this type of awkwardness.

Cale visited the tea shop in the city for the first time in a while.

< The Fragrance of Tea with Poetry >

It was the tea shop run by the Flynn Merchant Guild�s Billos. A worker had been running it ever since Billos left for the capital, but it still remained in the same location.

And today, the owner had returned to the shop for the first time in a while.

�Long time no see.�

�Have you been well, young master-nim?�

Billos�s piggy bank-like face was full of joy.

He was currently using the magic devices Cale had handed to him, as well as the benefits he got from the Whipper Kingdom�s Civil War, to increase his influence in the Flynn Merchant Guild.

�So-so. I didn�t expect you to come right away after I contacted you.�

�I happened to be in the area. I should come right away when you call for me anyway, young master-nim.�

Billos shared his honest sentiments. The reason he had no choice but to come was because Cale never wasted his time.

His intuition as a merchant was telling him something.

It was telling him that something always happens whenever Cale called him.

He had rushed over right away because he was curious what it would be this time. JrNovels.com
