Chapter 7

An eerie atmosphere flowed through the audience. The Count, Greig, and the Order of Knights had their mouths shut, not saying anything. No, they were at a loss for words.

On the other hand, the Countess and the others who didn’t know much about military arts were surprised by the strange atmosphere. They sensed that Zich had done something amazing, but they didn’t know to what extent.

Verden Trell, the butler of the Count’s family, asked, “Contrary to our expectations, the young master is doing well. But seeing the knights’ reaction, it seems like he is doing better than what I am seeing. Could you perhaps explain the situation to me?”

Trell had a long, neat beard and was an old man who had assisted the Count as a retainer since the Count’s young days. He was an essential servant who took care of all sorts of matters in the Count’s absence. Furthermore, he was one of the very few people who didn’t discriminate against Zich.
