I said with a nod, "I hope that you'll help me spread the news to the others."

Viscount Teomold's lips twitched a bit, but in the end, he still said, "I'll do my best." Then after a pause, he added, "But there are some people that aren't as willing to listen, so I hope that you understand if I fail, Count Zwein."

I revealed a knowing smile when I heard this before saying, "Just do what you can. I'm not expecting much."

Viscount Teomold's smile became wide again when he heard this as he said, "Of course, of course. I hope to have a long cooperation with you."

I gave a nod without saying anything.

As Viscount Teomold walked away, I looked at him and gave another secret cold laugh.
