Chapter 331 - 331 Banquet (2)



Looking up at Viscount Mudak who had just approached him, Marcus could see that the smile on his face did not reach his eyes that had a murderous gaze in them.

Of course, Marcus knew why this guy hated him, since he had rearranged his son\'s face. But really Marcus did not regret what he had done, since Wyatt had brutalized Mrazivý even though he had already won.

"Viscount Mudak I have been meaning to talk to you. How is your son doing?" Marcus said trying to push the viscount\'s buttons. 

And his provocations soon proved successful as the viscount\'s eyes glowed for a second teeming with power, before calming down as the viscount knew not to do anything in front of so many people.

Then with a voice laced with hate the viscount responded saying, "Wyatt is doing just fine. One of the top healers in the kingdom has recently finished a session with him and his injuries have been fully repaired."

Though while the viscount was correct that the physical injuries and disfigurement that Marcus had dealt to his son had been repaired, there were still lasting psychological issues that Wyatt had not gotten over.

"Well, that is good to hear, I am glad he has made a recovery." Marcus said obviously not caring.

After his battle with Wyatt, he did not give a crap about what happened to the guy and was fine since he had already gotten his retribution for Mrazivý.

Unfortunately, it looked like his father was not going to let things go so easily and did not want to bury the hatchet unless it was in Marcus\' back.

However, as Viscount Mudak was glaring daggers at Marcus, Mrazivý interposed in between them and said, "Viscount Mudak I hope that you can let bygones be bygones. Lady Irene here is now the personal subordinate of the royal family and we are very keen on her wellbeing."

Not beating around the bush Mrazivý simply came right out and told the viscount that Marcus was under the protection of the royal family.

She wanted him to know right here and now that if he did something to harm Marcus, that she would bring down the entire weight of the royal family on top of him.

Grinning his teeth and a with frustrated look in his eyes Viscount Mudak gave one last hateful glare at Marcus before saying, "Very well then. It was good to meet your acquaintance Lady Irene and Princess Mrazivý. 

After saying that Viscount Mudak turned around and left, steaming over the fact that he would not be able to exact his vengeance for the damage done to his son.

Even he was not stupid enough to against the royal family and he had also noticed during Marcus\' match against Quillon that there was something strange about him.

\'If the rumors are true, it is best that I do not act rashly. I will need to follow the established rules to voice my grievances. I will be seeing you in court Irene Geist.\'

While formulating his plan to at least receive some sort of payback against Marcus for what he did to his son, Viscount Mudak was already formulating his legal strategy to drain Marcus dry and bring him into financial ruin.

With their unwanted pest now gone, Marcus and Mrazivý continued their conversation with Novak and Clay, getting to hear about some of their experiences that happened on the continent to the west.

"Novak, Clay we got some important business to discuss with a merchant who wants to hire us." 

Coming up to them a woman who was obviously part of Novak\'s party came up to get them and halting their conversation once again.

Though at least this time it was for something important and not from a petty nuisance like last time.

"Looks like we need to go and take care of this. It was good to talk to the two of you. And once we are done I we can meet back up again, and I can introduce you to the rest of my party."

After saying that Novak and Clay went off with their party member, leaving Marcus and Mrazivý alone.

"I suppose we should go ahead and make the rounds." Mrazivý said, looking out at the crowd of people.

Nodding his head Marcus agreed to Mrazivý\'s proposal and could already notice that a few people were already waiting to talk to them.

Soon the two of them began talking to nobles and powerful merchants that wanted their attention.

To start most of the nobles wanted to inquire about the new they had heard of Mrazivý\'s engagement being broken off, and when she told them that it had been, some made requests asking if she would be willing to marry into their families instead.

Luckily, she had already prepared or this and said that her father had other plans and that she could not accept any marriage proposals at this time.

Of course, Marcus received plenty himself, but refused all of them.

Then after those seeking marriage proposals were those trying to recruit Marcus into their fold.

Some wanted him to become their family\'s personal forgemaster, while others offered him positions as a head knight in their territories.

Though to Marcus\' surprise one of the nobles that approached him was a duke\'s son and offered him a viceroyship as well as the title of viscountess should he become his father\'s subordinate.

  "Sorry but as grand as that offer is, I have already been recruited by the royal family." Marcus said showing the emblem the king had given him, as well as gesturing to Mrazivý who was standing next to him.

Sighing the son of Duke Scriven could only shrug his shoulders and move on. Even a duke\'s house did not have the power to pry someone away from the royal family if that person did not want to leave.

Eventually Marcus and Mrazivý managed to talk to all of the nobles and merchants vying for their attention and pacify them.

However, towards the end one of the nobles with less tact than the others, asked Marcus and Mrazivý, "So are the rumors true. Is Lady Geist actually your contracted spirit Princess Mrazivý."

Both of them were a bit stunned to hear this, but they quickly realized that this was a good chance to latch onto this rumor and make it work to their advantage.

"No that is just a baseless rumor Baron Ineptus." Mrazivý said in a tone that sounded like she was lying.

"Yes, that is just not possible is it. I am just Mrazivý\'s friend. Any friend would have jumped into the stadium like I did." Marcus said laying it on and adding onto what Mrazivý had said.

Naturally they both knew they sounded wholly unconvincing, but that was exactly what they wanted.

They would much rather have rumors of Marcus being Mrazivý\'s contracted spirit, than him being some sort of monster spreading around.

And just as they wanted, the baron took the bait and said, "Yes of course one should not believe every rumor they hear."

Of course, they both could see the smile on his face and his own tone revealed that he did not believe a word he had just said.
