Duke Sarkin’s Plot

“What are you saying?”

Ark couldn’t understand what had gone wrong. The day before, Ark had painstakingly found a way to repair Silvana thanks to the help of Nagaran’s lords. If he used the funds that Schudenberg Kingdom promised to pay for the military supplies than it could be used to finance Silvana’s recovery projects.

‘That’s it. Now I can raise the funds to repair Silvana!’

The only thing left was to receive the money and start fixing the reservoir and farmlands. Of course, not all the problems could be solved with that amount of money. It would take time and effort before Silvana returned to normal.

However, that money felt like he had come back alive from the brink of hell.

‘I can’t afford to waste even one more second or minute!’

So Ark hopefully ran to Selebrid. And he presented the document that Rokon drew up about the military supplies funding to the Finance Minister. However, the Finance Minister just tilted his head to one side and said.

“What is this?” “What? It is the bill for the funding of the military supplies that His Majesty promised for the Nagaran battle.

“The bill for the military supplies? I don’t know what you’re saying.”

Lipton who was the grey haired middle aged aristocrat in charge of the treasury muttered with a frown.

“That is impossible. When the demons invaded Nagaran 10 days ago, Lord Haverstein who is the commander of the expedition couldn’t give any support troops so he promised to pay for the necessary military supplies.” “Hrmm……”

Lipton scanned the document after hearing Ark’s explanation. Then he nodded and said.

“Okay. Then did you bring the issued form?” “The issued form?” “Yes, you raised 60,000 troops according to this form. The funding you require is more than 300,000 gold. If you were promised that type of funding then shouldn’t a form have been issued?” “T-that is……”

Ark was totally at a loss. He had been so busy at the time that he hadn’t even thought about it. No, he didn’t want to waste even one second so he hadn’t thought about it. There was no time to collect such documents from his allies. Lipton asked in an outraged tone after seeing Ark’s panic.

“What? You want the treasury to pay 300,000 gold without such documents?” “But it is true. Can’t you check it?” “Check it? With who?”

Lipton glared and asked. Ark replied.

“Didn’t I tell you? The communication office who contacted the expedition told us that His Majesty had promised to pay the funding. It must be an obvious mistake if the forms weren’t submitted to the Finance Minister. If you contact the communication officer then you can confirm it!”

Lipton’s eyes suddenly narrowed and he said.

“That would be the communication officer in charge of the expedition a month ago? He was dismissed from his position a week ago due to bribery charges. His actions after that are unclear.” “Huh?”

Ark was completely astonished by Lipton’s words. The communication officer had been accused of bribery and now his whereabouts was unknown?

How was that possible? Ark made an absurd expression and said.
