Over the next two weeks, I spent most of my ti in the church.
I still did a few things for Rose and Haley, such as showing my face for important occasions.
But most of my ti was spent in the church learning about the religion and gods of this world.
To understand the power of the Mark of God, I should learn about the ones that gave this Mark of God.
So I started learning about the religion, the gods, and what kind of power they had.
The priest was happy to teach all of this, but…he was quite the hard teacher. He went on for hours and hours giving lectures about the gods and their roles in this world.
He was one of those that thought that giving as much information as possible was best.
He didn't even bother giving ti to process this as he kept on with his lecture.
So it was hard having to keep up with this.
However, I did slowly learn what I wanted to learn and had a good understanding of religion in this world.
This was one of the things that I didn't have as much knowledge on from just playing the ga. After all, religion was a very boring thing and it was hard to incorporate into the plot, other than for a few certain scenes involving gods.
So there wasn't much lore about religion in the ga in the first place.
I would have continued my lesson with the priest, but there was sothing that called away.
It was a request from Rose.
This was the first ti that she was asking to do sothing and it turned out that it was sothing that only I could do.
It wasn't because I was the only one that possessed the skills for this task, but rather…because I was the count and nothing else. It was all because I had my title that I was required to go with her.
As for where we were going…
It was the territory of one of the neighbouring nobles.
It was to the territory of Viscount Teomold that I t in the capital.
Back then, I had promised to visit him and discuss cooperating with him in terms of selling him ore.
Now that Haley and Rose had finished setting things up in our town to receive the ore, it was ti for us to start finding custors to sell this ore to.
So the first one that we chose was Viscount Teomold that I had already established contact with.
But when we set off, it seed more like a happy trip that we were taking instead of going to et another noble.
Rose rarely got the opportunity to head out since she was so busy managing the territory, but she had to go this ti as my wife since this was a formal visit to one of the neighbouring nobles.
She had been working hard these past two weeks to set up everything so that they could run the territory while we were both gone…though it mattered more that Rose was gone than it did that I was gone.
The one that took over for her was Nicole who had gone with to Bright Water City before.
She was taken under Rose's wings after coming up and she had beco a skilled aide to Rose that was able to run things in her place.
Though if we were gone for too long, it wouldn't take much for her to crumble.
No one would be able to replace Rose after all.
So as we left, Nicole had a tearful look on her face as she said, "Have fun on your trip and co back soon."
The part that she emphasized was the second part, but Rose just ignored it as she happily took my arm and sat beside in the carriage.
Like this, we headed off to Viscount Teomold's territory.
Since it was a neighbouring territory, it should have only taken us two days of traveling to teach it. But it actually took us double that ti, a total of four days to arrive in his territory.
That was because along the way, Rose kept finding new places to stop in.
She completely ignored Nicole's request and just went at her own pace.
We stopped in many different towns and took our ti enjoying ourselves.
As for …I really couldn't go against her.
First, there wasn't even the need to ntion if I was able to go against her since that was a definitive no.
Second, I didn't want to go against her since I didn't want to deny her this chance to cut loose.
I had left all my problems in managing the town to her, so I could only make it up to her like this.
If Rose wanted to enjoy herself, then I would do my best to accommodate.
I could only apologize to Nicole and the rest of her subordinates who were stuck with this in my heart.
I would think of a way to make it up to them once we got back.
When we arrived in Viscount Teomold's territory, we were greeted with a warm welco.
But the look on Rose and Haley's faces had completely changed.
While we had been on the road enjoying ourselves, they had relaxed smiles on their faces.
But now, they had calm and serious smiles on their faces that were befitting of a noble.
It would be a lie to say that there wasn't a part of that wasn't turned on when I saw them like this…
Still, I gathered myself and revealed a look that I felt was similar to their looks on my face.
When we arrived in the town, the gates were opened for us and we saw that there was a crowd that all cheered as we arrived.
At the center of the crowd, as if he was waiting for us, was Viscount Teomold with his family and a few of his subordinates around him.
