Shut Up, Young Lady, Obediently Hand Over The Money And Don't Confess! Chapter 651 : A Small Manor, Secured...? Wait?

"Please, co in and have so tea. You haven't had breakfast, have you? Let's eat together."

Adelina ca down from the second floor, walked to Felyn's side, and very naturally wrapped her arm around his.

Her hostess-like words and expressions let the guards present know the relationship between the two.

Felyn turned to glance at Adelina. The warm sunlight illuminated her face, making her smile enough to lt any glacier in the world.

The long dress with its wifely feel and her shoulder-length hair made Felyn feel as if he were already living a married life.

"Lady Adelina, thank you for your kindness. However, we have other official duties and cannot stay long."

"Really? Don't be polite. The cookies my Felyn makes are delicious."

After being politely refused a second ti by the guards, Adelina turned and went to the kitchen, put the cookies she had just baked into a bag, and returned to Felyn's side.

She did this, on one hand, to let others know about her relationship with Felyn, and on the other, to help Felyn win over the guards and people in the army.

The guards took out the official docunt and read out the King's comndation in the courtyard.

"Felyn Sorester, in the crisis of the evil god's descent, with a heart of courage and resolution, protected the royal bloodline and shielded innocent people from devastation..."

Felyn had stopped Flos in the Royal Capital District, allowing the balance of power in the empire and even the entire world to be restored.

If Flos had snatched the Eye of Samsara, the God of Samsara would have fully descended. Even if Flos died, Samsara would have remained permanently in the mortal world.

The world's power structure would have undergone a cataclysmic change.

"Felyn Sorester is promoted to a Second-Class Noble of the Empire."

"Awarded the Imperial Badge of Courage, to wear its glory and display its conviction."

"Granted a piece of land in the Saint Adrian district as his territory in the Royal Capital District."

"Bestowed with fifty million crowns..."

Adelina watched as Felyn's eyes lit up only when he heard the word "crowns" and shook her head helplessly.

Felyn is still the sa old Felyn, getting excited at the ntion of money.

When will he get this excited hearing my na?

"Thank you all." Felyn put away the official docunt and saw that the guards' hands were empty.

Where are my fifty million crowns?

Perhaps sensing the doubt in Felyn's mind, the leading guard gave Felyn an embarrassed smile.

This smile made Felyn feel that sothing was very wrong.

"My lord, according to imperial regulations, the empire only bestows you with land. If there are buildings on that land, you still need to pay compensation for demolition, or buy it directly."

Generally speaking, nobles would report in advance which piece of land they wanted. If the land the nobles wanted was already inhabited, the noble would need to buy all the houses on it.

If no report was made, a random vacant plot would be assigned as a reward.

It was the first ti the guards had seen a case like Felyn's, where he hadn't reported a preference but was forcibly assigned a piece of inhabited land by the King.

"You an... there are other houses on the land the King granted ? And I have to pay him demolition fees?"

"Yes, my lord."

"By the way, why does the na Saint Adrian district sound so familiar?" Felyn frowned deeply, trying to rember where he had heard that na.

Right!

The manor Dorothy had kidnapped him to was in this district!

An ominous premonition arose!

"My lord, your fifty million crowns have already been used as paynt for the purchase of the manor, handed over to the original owner of the manor. Your noble salary for the next five years has also been included."

"Wait! What manor costs that much money?!"

"My lord, I'm not too sure either. But I heard that the manor seems to belong to Her Highness, so the renovation costs were quite high..."

"Dorothy?!"

It really was her!

---

The matter was complicated, but also not that complicated.

Royal Capital District, the Imperial Palace.

The King sat in his study. He could almost see the astonished expression on Felyn's face at this mont and laughed out loud at the wall.

"Felyn, don't bla ."

He looked at the land deed and the agreent signed by Dorothy on the table and put them away in a cabinet.

The manor was originally a gift from Dorothy to Felyn, and it even had Felyn's na written on it.

But a princess privately transferring land was an illegal act under imperial law. The King had forcibly returned the manor to Dorothy's hands.

Dorothy had been angry about this for a long ti, not knowing what her father's intention was.

It wasn't until her father sent a debenture to Dorothy that she knew what he was up to.

He first returned the manor to Dorothy, and then granted that piece of land to Felyn. With this maneuver, Felyn had to pay for the manor to the manor's owner, which was Dorothy.

Dorothy thus beca Felyn's creditor.

There was no relationship more stable than a debtor-creditor relationship.

This way, Dorothy would have ample reason to stay by Felyn's side, and Felyn would have no way to refuse, and would even have to obey Dorothy's arrangents.

"Felyn, you haven't co to see Dorothy recently. I can only use a little trick." The King looked towards Seiwa outside the wall, the smile on his face never ceasing.

---

Dunk District.

Felyn's reaction was exactly as the King had predicted.

"Dorothy has beco my creditor? Not only did I not get the fifty million, but I now owe her thirty million?"

This was the result after Dorothy voluntarily waived a portion of the amount deducting Felyn's salary for five years.

Manors are very expensive.

The guards had all left. Felyn and Adelina sat on the living room sofa, looking at the official docunt on the coffee table.

He no longer understood whether this was a reward or a punishnt.

"At least you got the manor... a-and, territory in the Royal Capital District is very hard to get approved." Adelina soothed Felyn's emotions.

Territory in the Royal Capital District couldn't be bought with any amount of money; it could only be granted by the King.

"But thirty million... how many years will it take to earn that..."

Felyn lay on Adelina's lap. He wanted to see her face, but it was completely blocked by her chest.

"Felyn, how about I help you pay so of it back with my money?"

"It's okay, Adelina. I'll figure it out myself."

This was no small sum of money. How could he let Adelina pay it?

Felyn sighed.

Forget it. After all, my dream was to have a manor, and now I've gotten one by a strange twist of fate.

"Is the Royal Capital District still not open?"

"No, mbers of the Claude family said the investigation is very strict recently, and it won't be opened for a short while."

"Then the two of us definitely can't participate in the Hero's Festival."

Knowing that his creditor was Dorothy, if he couldn't raise thirty million before returning to the Royal Capital District, she would definitely not show rcy.

The gentle and understanding princess would one hundred percent use this money to make so excessive demands on him.

Isn't this just like the contract service?

What way was there to earn thirty million in one or two months?

If he couldn't earn it, he would beco Dorothy's debt slave for life.

Felyn rubbed his temples, feeling troubled.

When troubled...

Naturally, one should do sothing to relax.

"Felyn?!" Adelina called Felyn's na softly as her body was lifted by him again. "It's early in the morning, isn't this a bit much?"

Her earlobes began to turn red again, making Felyn unable to resist leaning down for a bite.

"Fe-Felyn..."

The young lady surrendered.

---

Royal Capital District, Royal Academy.

Dorothy, whom Felyn had been worried about, was currently in Felyn's dormitory.

The small dormitory had beco a bit crowded.

There were too many young ladies; the sofa was almost full.

Viloti, Zervanie, Daiyi, Bernice, Dorothy, Olivia, Sylvain, and Lecia were all in the living room.

Hermi curiously looked at this large group of beautiful girls, sniffing them one by one.

"Felyn has woken up. This is a good thing."

"The bad thing is, Felyn is with Adelina right now."
