Viscount, It's Time to Return to Your Territory and Enjoy Your Life
Close the door quickly, don't let the Viscount escape.
Your Excellency, your subject Olena has finally been waiting for you.
The two short sentences from the Blue Moon Shopkeeper completely blocked Lance's next words and thoughts.
The familiar yet unfamiliar address brought him back to the Red Maple Kingdom, back to the year he was swindled out of his money.
The money spent resulted in a group of emaciated farmers and a bunch of hungry children. (The last sentence appears to be unrelated and possibly a fragment from another context.)
Encountering subjects of another kingdom in a completely unfamiliar kingdom—when did the world become so small? "Your Excellency, no, Your Excellency, you should return to your territory and enjoy your retirement."
Olena placed her right hand on her chest, knelt on one knee, and bowed to their lord of Saint Blue City. She was a subject of Earl Lance and a knight who protected Viscount Lance.
Yes, she is also a Blue Moon Knight.
The Blue Moon Knight are directly responsible for the safety of Lance.
"Get up." Lance helped Olena, who was kneeling on one knee, to her feet. His idea of getting an endorsement fee from his own company was shattered.
Blue Moon Perfume has become a rising star in the perfume industry of the Nod Kingdom, and even owns its own shop on the most bustling street in the capital.
How could that poor, dilapidated territory in his memory have such great power?
The key point is that the process of extracting perfume is very demanding, and he left behind no perfume extraction techniques when he left.
We're barely able to afford enough to eat; there's no need to pursue unrealistic things like perfume.
The little territory he had forgotten seemed to be much wealthier than he had imagined.
What did this little girl just say to him? She told him to go back and enjoy his retirement. "Lord Lance, do you remember me?"
"I vaguely remember."
"When I was eleven, you patted my head and gave me a lollipop. I will always remember your words: 'Little one, don't be afraid. The days ahead will be as sweet as this lollipop in your hand.'"
Lord Lance, you have fulfilled your promise with your actions, making our lives sweeter and sweeter.
Did I say that? I can't remember.
He did vaguely recall giving out lollipops; they were given to all the children, not just Olena.
Back then, those children were as thin as chicks, their eyes lifeless. Giving them a little sweet candy would let them know that life could get sweeter and sweeter.
One should be kinder to the people of one's own territory.
As it turned out, the people of his territory lived up to his kindness.
"It's great that you've all grown up so much and become so successful. It's wonderful that you've been able to build a foundation for yourselves in the capital of a foreign kingdom. The better your lives are, the happier I am."
"Your Excellency, I still prefer to address you as Your Excellency Viscount. May I continue to address you as Your Excellency Viscount?"
"Can."
"The Viscount is as gentle as ever."
The baby dragon grinned. A gentle dragon? Little girl, that's because you haven't seen the evil dragon beat up the Squid Girl, nor have you seen the evil dragon use the Squid Girl as bait. If you have, well, you'll never see it in this lifetime. The evil dragon will definitely not let you know his true identity.
When you die of old age, the dragon might tell you, provided he remembers he had such a lovely group of subjects. "Your Excellency, is this cute little dragon that can speak human language your pet?"
"Yes. She likes to be called Little Dragon Highness. You can call her Little Dragon Highness to make her happy."
Little Dragon Highness?
The Viscount seems to dote on this little Amethyst Dragon. Could it be that all the fertilizer the Viscount has been sending to the territory every year has come from this Little Dragon Highness prince?
That seems a bit exaggerated. The Little Dragon Highness is so Little Dragon Highness; he shouldn't be able to produce that much fertilizer. Perhaps the viscount, the father of the Little Dragon Highness, reached some kind of agreement with his father? For example, the viscount might be responsible for taking care of Little Dragon Highness child, and Little Dragon Highness father's high-quality fertilizer would be the reward for the adult dragon's greed and stinginess. Making them pay in gold coins is practically like taking a dragon's life; using what they consider worthless as payment is something only an adult dragon would do.
Another question Little Dragon Highness's parent a male or female adult dragon? If it's a female adult dragon, the Viscount's sacrifices might be far greater than she imagines. Olena glanced at her Viscount and noticed the doting gaze he gave the Little Dragon Highness. Oh no! Could it be that the Viscount has fallen for the Little Dragon Highness's mother? Otherwise, how can she explain treating the Little Dragon Highness like her own daughter? The future wife might be an adult female dragon.
We must tell Ticia this important news.
We must also make everyone in the territory treat Little Dragon Highness as the Viscount's daughter, not as the Little Dragon Highness's pet.
"Your Little Dragon Highness, this is our own property. If you see any perfume you like, just take it. Don't be shy."
The young dragon hurriedly put down the perfume from its claws. When she was Imperial Daughter, she occasionally liked to spray perfume on herself.
Now that she's a baby dragon, perfume holds no appeal for her. What baby dragon would spray perfume on itself? "Olena, will you need that when making these perfumes?"
"That one? Which one?"
Olena couldn't quite understand what Little Dragon Highness was saying.
"She was referring to dragon dung."
"Ah, no, no. Our perfume raw materials are pure herbal essences, which are refined and purified through a series of processes to obtain these perfumes and fragrant woods."
However, we have our own Medicinal Fragrance Garden, and the fertilizer we use to nourish the land is dragon manure. Therefore, the flowers, herbs, and fragrant woods in our territory possess some special attributes. This is the reason why [Blue Moon] was able to quickly establish itself in the royal capital and become a rising star in the perfume industry.
The young dragon's aversion to perfume vanished instantly.
After the transformation by flowers and plants, the factor of dragon dung can be completely ignored.
"Your Little Dragon Highness, please feel free to choose. The quality of our perfumes far surpasses that of most of our competitors in the capital."
While Olena was communicating with the young dragon, she was also slowly and stealthily approaching Lance, afraid that the Viscount, who had gone to great lengths to come to the shop, might run away while she wasn't paying attention.
The description of the knight uncle is inconsistent with reality.
The Viscount doesn't seem to be short of money or living a very difficult life.
On the contrary, the Viscount seems to be living a very carefree life.
Traveling with Little Dragon Highness to various kingdoms, when they were short of money, they would set up stalls to earn some. Once they had money, they would travel to another city to play.
Having grown accustomed to this seemingly nomadic but actually touristy lifestyle, the Viscount might not be willing to return to his territory to enjoy a life of leisure.
Moreover, she noticed that while the Viscount appeared to be strolling leisurely, he was actually intentionally or unintentionally walking towards the door.
Your Excellency is trying to run away!
