Am I a bad person? They all want to kill me?

Rem did not hide anything and told her sister the contents of her dream truthfully.

"Dream? Future simulation, lost memory?"

Ram frowned and thought with Rem.

"Sister, you said..."

Ram raised his hand to Rem and said solemnly: "Rem, don't tell anyone about this except me, not even Lord Roswaal."

Just now, she and Rem were cleaning in the same room, and the distance between them was very close.

But when Rem fell asleep, she didn't notice anything.

If this was man-made, then this person must be very scary! Even scarier than Lord Roswaal who stood at the top of the kingdom!

After all, even Lord Roswaal couldn't cast a spell without being able to hide from the "Mana" in the air...

"I see."

Rem nodded calmly.

Although she still didn't know what exactly happened, as long as her sister was there, she wouldn't be afraid...

My sister is the best!

............

Winter comes and summer goes, spring goes and autumn comes, and in the blink of an eye, four years have passed.

Compared with the other three unchanged kingdoms, the Kingdom of Lugnica has undergone some commendable changes thanks to the efforts of a visitor from another world.

In a tavern in the royal capital, a handsome bard was holding a lyre and reciting with deep emotion under the gaze of everyone.

"I hear echoes, from the valley and from my heart."

"Harvesting empty souls with a lonely sickle."

"Continuously repeating determination and happiness"

"There is always an oasis in the desert."

"I believe in myself."

"Born like a bright summer flower."

"Unfading and undefeated, seductive as fire."

"Bear the burden of heartbeat and the burden of breathing."

“I never get tired of it.”

"I hear music in moonlight and carcasses..."

"..."

"I hear love, I believe in love..."

"..."

"I believe everything can be heard..."

"..."

"Prajnaparamita, one sound after another."

"Life is as splendid as summer flowers, and death is as quiet and beautiful as autumn leaves."

“It still matters what you have.”

At the end of the song, there was thunderous applause, and from time to time some copper and silver coins flew from all around and landed in the bard's hat on the table.

When the applause died down, the bard smiled and said.

"Thank you all for coming, and thank you to Lord Lin for bringing us the poems from another world. If it weren't for him, we might never have known that there are such gorgeous poems in another world."

"Oh~oh~Thank you, Lord Lin, so... Old man, another glass of Baron's liquor."

A muscular werewolf waved his arms and shouted drunkenly.

"Humph! Let me say this again, this is called whiskey! And! Baron Lin was granted the title of Viscount by the royal family a year ago. Even if you don't call it whiskey, you should call it Viscount Liquor!"

The old but spirited tavern owner corrected the werewolf's statement and poured a glass of golden whiskey.

This whiskey, like the previous poem, was brought by the Viscount.

Long before the Viscount was granted the title, he had already sold many specialties from other worlds through the Sword Saint family, the Astraea family.

Such as high-yield crops from another world called potatoes and corn, many spirits like whiskey, and blue and white porcelain artworks that he could not afford.

At first, even with the Sword Saint Family's guarantee behind the scenes, not many people bought these things.

But later, for some reason, all the nobles in the kingdom began to cooperate with the Viscount and produced more specialties from the other world. Among them, the Duke Karsten's family was the most prominent.

During this period, the royal family also granted the title of baron to that lord.

According to others, the reason why the royal family granted the title to that adult was, firstly, because of potatoes and corn, two high-yield crops, and secondly, because of something called "fertilizer".

I heard that thing can greatly increase the yield of various crops.

However, up to now, that thing has not been widely promoted and is only used in some territories of the royal family, the Sword Master family, and the Duke Karsten's family.

Later, that gentleman brought out more and more special products from another world, and he even set up a joint association with the nobles of the kingdom to specialize in the production and sale of various special products from another world.

As an ordinary civilian, he didn't know the specific situation of the United Association, but judging from the past two years, the United Association was generally good.

Not only did he set up many factories in various places, he also opened many schools for free, teaching all kinds of knowledge that only aristocratic lords were qualified to learn.

His grandson is currently attending the Kingdom's Seventh Vocational College, which is funded by the United Association.

Not only did he learn a lot of words, he also learned a lot of skills, and even learned a few sword techniques!

Good news, great news...

Not long after the kingdom had established many schools, that gentleman was promoted again from baron to viscount.

It was also at that time that ordinary people like them realized that it was the Viscount who made great efforts in both the alliance with Concordia and the establishment of schools.

If it weren't for that adult, the kingdom would probably remain the same as it was four years ago, with no changes.

This viscount from another world is truly a good man...

"Haha~ Another serving of Viscount BBQ~"

The werewolf corrected his mistake, waving his club and laughing and shouting.

The tavern owner shook his head and gritted his teeth and said, "It's kebab! You stupid wolf! Also, be respectful to the Viscount! Don't yell like that. It's thanks to Viscount Lin. If it were any other noble lord, he would have skinned you alive after hearing you yell like that!"

That viscount was good in every way except that he lacked aristocratic dignity. He was always friendly and would just laugh it off no matter who made a joke of him.

He felt that this was not a good idea; a noble lord still had to maintain the dignity that he should have, otherwise these vulgar mercenaries would not show mercy in their words.

171. "My Wonderful Life in Another World"

Hearing the name of Lord Lin, a drinker seemed to remember something. He turned to look at his companion and asked in a low voice.

"Speaking of which, a few days ago I heard that the Viscount was inventing a new type of carriage that could run automatically. Is this true?"

The drinker's companion rolled his eyes and said, "That's called a 'car', not a carriage."

"Oh~oh~ Then how does this 'car' run automatically? It doesn't require horses or earth dragons. Is it using magic?"

"Who knows? It's another 'technology' from another world. But compared to the so-called 'cars', I'm more interested in 'electricity'. I heard that the Viscount has a way to let ordinary people use the power of lightning. Technology from another world is really amazing..."

"Yes, I always feel that the 'technology' is more powerful than the 'magic' of those noble lords."

"Indeed, after all, magic can't make us rich..."

As he was speaking, the drinker's companion suddenly realized that what he was going to say next was a bit sensitive, so he closed his mouth in time, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip of the liquor to moisten his throat.

"Ah~ Speaking of which, it's a pity for the Viscount. If nothing had happened to the royal family, with his 'technology', he might have become an 'earl' or even a 'marquis' in a few years."

"Oh, that's right."

As he spoke, the drunkard looked at his companion and asked in a low voice: "You said, among the five candidates for king chosen by the Dragon Calendar Stone, who will be the remaining four, except for the Duchess of the Cartens family? Will they choose someone who doesn't get along with the Viscount? If that happens, then in the future..."

"cough~"

The drinker's companion coughed heavily and said, "These things have nothing to do with ordinary people like us. It's irrelevant for you to worry so much."

"How does this have nothing to do with us? If a fool goes on stage..." The drunkard rolled up his sleeves, wanting to have a good argument with his friend.

However, before he could finish, his partner tore off a piece of barbecue and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Stop talking! You can't shut up after eating so much!"

The drinker's companion first glared at the drinker fiercely, then looked around cautiously.

But not all nobles are as kind and friendly as Lord Viscount Lin. If it were some nobles with violent personalities, they would probably be fished out of the sewer tomorrow morning.

"..."

It was only at this point that the drinker finally realized that he had spoken without thinking. He chewed the delicious barbecue and said no more.

"Luke, have you found the murderer for the commission you accepted a few days ago?"

The quiet drinker was attracted by the conversation of his neighbor, and he pricked up his ears to listen.

"No, the person who did it handled it very cleanly. I didn't find anything."

"What a pity! Old Joseph only had one grandson. After his grandson died, Old Joseph went half crazy. If the murderer can't be found..."

The person sitting next to me was silent for a moment, then changed the subject and asked, "Which one is this this month?"

"The sixth one, not even halfway through this month... We can be sure that the person who did it was the same one. He skinned, dug out the heart, dissected the bones, and smashed the skull... The method was exactly the same each time. After the crime, he used the corpse to paint a picture and left it at the scene..."

"Damn it! What on earth are the kingdom's guards doing?! Do they have to wait until the murderer attacks a noble child before they investigate!?"

"...What else? Do you think they would risk their lives for us lowly people? The murderer is not a simple person. His brutal methods are likely related to the Witch Cult."

"Witch Cult..."

"..."

The sudden silence of his neighbor sent a chill down his spine, and he suddenly felt that the barbecue in his mouth had lost its taste.

And just at this moment, his partner suddenly spoke.

"In recent years, we have received many more commissions than before..."

"kindness......"

The drinker was slightly startled, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was indeed the case.

In the past, the commissions that these mercenaries could receive were mostly fixed, either escort or protection, and occasionally some missing person missions.

In recent years...not only have the escort and protection missions increased, but there have also been many more missions to find and track down criminals.

He had never thought about it carefully before, but now that he thought about it, he realized that something was wrong.

In recent years, beneath the prosperous appearance of the kingdom, there seems to be a lot of darkness...

Is it the Witch Cult? But I haven't heard of any big moves by the Witch Cult in recent years...

"Let's go, it's time for us to take on commissions, otherwise we won't have money to drink in a few days."

"it is good."

The drinker and his companions picked up their weapons, left the tavern, and gradually disappeared on the bustling and bright streets of the royal capital.

............

The sun moved westward, the bright moon rose into the sky, the night gradually fell, and in the blink of an eye it was already night.

Lin Qing'an, a new noble of the kingdom, is in his own mansion, patiently reading the history of this world.

"Knock---knock---"

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

Lin Qingan said without raising his head.

"Click---"
