Play Cards! in a Different World of Swords and Magic

The end of the year is approaching, and as a lord, even trivial matters in the fief, big or small, need to be handled by someone.

"Well, it's a pity that we can't meet right away."

Aisha's dull hair on the top of her head trembled in disappointment, scratching against Alice's smooth cheeks, making her itchy and wanting to laugh.

"Then I'll go back to my room and pack my luggage."

"Ai Xia, don't pack it up, it's going to be used tomorrow anyway."

"Use? These packed luggage?"

"Ah."

Pushing up the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, Alice explained.

"I have finished dealing with the trivial matters at the end of the year in the past few days, and it is time to go."

"Let's go, where are we going?"

Ai Xia, who didn't understand her status, heard for the first time that she was finally on holiday at the end of the year, and she was actually arranged for a schedule.

"The Royal Capital."

All the nobles in the Kingdom of Liverden had to send people to the capital to report on their work this year.

For example, crop harvests, financial taxes, the number of people in fiefdoms, whether there are epidemics, wars, etc., are already routine matters every year.

In the past, these tasks were done by Aisha's parents.

It's just that this year, Ai Xia's parents were unexpectedly involved, and Alice happened to be an adult, so she took over the job as a matter of course.

As for the work to go to the royal capital, there is another layer of meaning hidden in it.

Years ago, after all the families of the Kingdom of Livolden gathered in the capital, there would be a gathering among nobles.

As the name suggests, the major families exchange feelings.

In fact, behind the scenes, it is a "battlefield" where they show their strength to each other, hurry up to perform in front of the royal family, make themselves more face, and gain a higher status by the way.

As for the method of showing strength.In ancient times, there were knights fighting swords, but today there are duelists rubbing cards.

It is the basic rule applicable to the entire elf continent to distinguish the high and low by duel strength.

At the gathering in the royal capital, each family will bring the most powerful duelist, so as to accept the challenge of other families, and not lose the most important face of the nobility in the public.

As for the Carlos family, because there have been no duelists, they were basically stared at at this party, and they were provoked and couldn't even fight back. They were the lowest-ranking family.

But this year is different.

Although he hasn't graduated yet, as long as he enrolls in Fusheng Academy, it means that Aisha Carlos has the qualifications of an official duelist.A duelist who can represent the glory of the family.

"Get ready to go to the capital tomorrow, Aisha."

In the aristocratic war without gunpowder, Alice had quietly made up her mind after she came back.

Now that my sister already has the strength to defeat the Set family, there is no need to delay any longer.

Just this year.

The humiliation that the family has suffered, the belittling and superstition that the father and mother have endured until now.

This time, Carlos wants to get back everything he lost.
