Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

When I returned to the inn, the first thing that I did was fall flat on the bed.

Even though it was only the afternoon, I felt like I was completely drained of all energy.

After all, with all that I had gone through, this wasn’t that strange.

I wished that there were a few more of me so that I wouldn’t have to deal with these nobles anymore…but I did have to keep talking to them since Bunny Boss was right. It would be good to create a few allies that I could trust while I was here so that I could deal with what would come in the future.

Especially when the Shadow Garden organization crashed one day.

But for now…I would hide in my room.

As a hikki in my past life, I could be considered an introverted person.

While I was fine dealing with people, I did need some time to recharge by myself or I would crash.

It was fine if I took today off, I would go make friends tomorrow.

Normally at this point, some mother figure would come in and tear the blankets off me while telling me to go out, but that didn’t happen here.

After taking the rest of the day off, I was much more recharged the next morning.

I even had a smile on my face as I came down to breakfast, but that smile quickly disappeared when I saw who was waiting at my table today.

This was a face that I recognized from the game…so I knew exactly who this person was.

But Scar still said, ”This is the minister of the agricultural department, Viscount Stark.”

The agricultural department, this was a department that was in charge of the agriculture of the kingdom. It could be considered one of the important departments in the kingdom, but with how prosperous the kingdom has been in the past decades, its importance had slowly fallen off.

After all, if the kingdom’s agriculture never suffered and people never lacked food, there was no need for them to manage anything.

So those that took the position as the minister of the agricultural department were those that were considered to be in training for the future. Or it was a position that was taken by a minister that had fallen out of power.

Of course, this Viscount Stark wasn’t one of those people.

Viscount Stark’s father was Duke Stark who had done what he could to get his son this position for training.

There wasn’t much to do at the agricultural department other than making sure that the grain stockpiles were filled and that the taxes were paid. So it could be considered quite the comfy and cushy job.

But in terms of prestige, Viscount Stark shouldn’t have had enough that these other nobles would give this seat to him. Or at least that was what it was if they just looked at his prestige alone.

Above Viscount Stark was Duke Stark, who was from one of the founding families of this kingdom.

He controlled a large territory with a large family just like the Beauchamp Ducal Family, so they had to give respect to Viscount Stark.

At the same time, they didn’t mind giving this respect since it meant that none of the princes’ envoys would be able to talk to Baron…no, Viscount Zwein. In a sense, this was a deadlock. After all, it was well known that Viscount Stark and the Stark Family as a whole were in the neutral faction who didn’t back any princes.

But I knew better than them…

I knew that Viscount Stark was backing a prince even if the Stark Family wasn’t.

After all, in the game, Viscount Stark had been one of the prince’s right hand man.

He might be in the agricultural department now, but Viscount Stark was a monster in his own right. He was someone who had all kinds of dirty tricks that he could use to destroy his enemies without a single trace being connected to him.

So he was someone that no one would ever want to offend.

Viscount Stark was under the fourth prince, the most terrifying prince of them all.

I had no idea how much power the current Viscount Stark had, but I didn’t dare underestimate him.

The problem was…he had come to see me.

Was he here on behalf of the fourth prince or was he here for something else?

If I had my way, I would never come in contact with him, but since he had come to see me…I had no choice in this matter.

To even make matters worse, when he saw me, he waved his hand at me as if he was trying to catch my attention.

When he made things clear, it wasn’t as if I could just ignore him anymore.

So taking a deep breath, I walked over to the table and sat down across from Viscount Stark.

Viscount Stark didn’t say anything to me and just turned to the waiter, giving him a nod.

Not long after, the waiter brought over a buffet of dishes that he placed in front of us.

There were all kinds of dishes that were brought out and placed on the table, but there was so much of it that it was clear that the four of us would never be able to finish it alone.

However, Viscount Stark didn’t seem to care as he just had the waiter bring everything out.

Of course, for someone that came from a ducal family like him, this bit of food really wasn’t anything even if this was one of the most expensive restaurants in the city.

It was nothing more than a drop in the bucket for someone like him.

Once the waiter finished bringing out all the food, Viscount Stark just gave a wave of the hand to dismiss him before turning back to look in my direction with a smile on his face.

He said in a natural voice, ”Viscount Zwein, I’ve been looking forward to meeting you.”
