Chapter 201 Beigang City’s Support

Beigang City, this is a second-tier city.

The [Meeting Hall] here is actually a place that is not often used, but recently people often hold meetings there.

The person who convened the meeting was naturally the Lord of Beigang City.

The Lord of Beigang City summoned his deputy, a lower-level official from Beigang City, to discuss issues regarding the new policy.

The topic revolved around the giant dragon who was the lord of the Northern Territory and the Earl of Northport... After all, there was no precedent for such a thing.

The city lord is a position subordinate to the commander-in-chief of the four regions. He is the manager of the [city] and is a separate system from the nobles.

To describe it, although the rights of the city lord and the nobles come from the Violet Kingdom itself, there are still differences.

Just like the churches within the kingdom, although they are nominally subordinate to the Violet Kingdom, they actually have control over them from the Theocracy.

To be more clear...

The royal family itself belongs to the system of [nobles], and the king is the largest noble, or vice versa.

The status of nobility is conferred by the royal family... This is the embodiment of imperial power.

The title of a nobleman comes from [reward]. It is obtained by being rewarded for meritorious service or being particularly popular.

The commanders of the four regions are different, whether they are the commander of the north, the commander of the south, the commander of the west, or the city lord or deputy city lord.

Their positions come from [appointment], this is the difference.

Strictly speaking, in fact, their model and status are very similar to the leaders of various knights, and they all come from selection and recommendation.

In this case, we can understand why Belsi has two fiefdoms.

Strictly speaking, the noble of the Northern Territory is Sebu Belia, but she took the initiative to give up the position of [Lord] to Belsi.

Belsi is actually the [Lord (City Lord)] responsible for managing the Northern Territory, not the [Owner (Fief Noble)] of the Northern Territory.

The same situation exists in Beigang City now...

As the newly appointed earl, Belsey became the [owner] of Northport City, and this was his fiefdom.

Then, it stands to reason that Belsi, like Sebu Belia, can appoint a new city lord.

After all, Beigang City was the land granted to Belsi by the eldest princess, and the orders he issued for Beigang City were indeed equivalent to the orders of the eldest princess.

But there is a very crucial question.

The city lord is also appointed by the royal family... If Belsi transfers personnel at will, wouldn't it be equivalent to a slap in the face of the royal family?

It was like pointing at the nose and the royal family that had made the decision, and saying: "The person you appointed is not good...the vision is not good."

Prior to this, there was no similar situation in the United Kingdom of Violet Humanity. Generally speaking, there would be no city lord in the fiefdom.

In other words, it was because of the accidental vacancy of the city lord position that this city became the aristocratic territory of a certain noble.

No matter how bad things go, the royal family will transfer the city lord away before awarding the reward.

This is the normal process.

…

"Rosa Witchenbrough, what does she want to do?"

A man who seemed to have a very high status scolded him angrily, slapping his hands on the table and making a sound.

Others sitting in the conference hall did not respond much to him... Anyway, no matter how the leader is changed, it has nothing to do with them.

It doesn't make much difference to them whether he is a dragon or the current city lord.

"City Lord, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to call Her Royal Highness the Princess by her name like this? Pay more attention~"

"That's right!"

"really."

They were even able to interrupt at will and say completely meaningless words, irritating the lord of Beigang City.

But, before the city lord said anything...

A man who looked full of justice rushed into the lord's hall... That person was the newly promoted [Lord Boqi]

The position is [Deputy General Manager of Human Resources of Commercial Street].

"City Lord... urgent report."

Lord Boqi said this and handed a piece of parchment to the city lord. The city lord looked at the other person's face with difficulty.

To put it simply, this position of [Deputy General Manager of Human Resources of Commercial Street] is quite interesting.

After all, Lord Boch was already a relatively famous customer before he entered the management system...as a new commercial street customer.

When it comes to the new commercial street, it is said that it is a new commercial street, but in fact...

In fact, Belxi and the others also passed by it, which was the street where the mage girl was ridiculed crazily when she passed by, all of them were beautiful sisters.

Well, that's right, that's the street...

And Boqi took out a hundred VIP coupons! Even the elves in the elf shop couldn't stand it. This was really scary.

As a last resort, they outsourced the work of hosting Lord Boch to a nearby store... In the end, Lord Boch was killed in the Succubus shop.

It was a death in [combat]. As for whether life was lost in battle...

It can only be said that Lord Boqi was depressed for a long time after this, and he felt that his life span must have been shortened a lot.

However, the city lord quickly recovered from his uneasy state of mind and began to look through the parchment handed over by Lord Boqi.

After all, Lord Boch is very normal when he is working, and only in his free time...

No, Boqi is a very understandable person. He devoted all his free time to another [work].

Even every store in the new commercial street knows him.

"..."

Then, the city lord's expression began to become more and more unbelievable, and then he showed a little surprise.

"What?! Are the people from the Northern Territory who come to Beigang City under attack?"

Saying this, the city lord felt quite happy, after all...

…

etc! Totally wrong!

"Were you attacked? Your identity is the famous killer——Twenty-Two Gray Armor. This, this, this... I have nothing to do with this!"

The city lord hesitated for a moment, then looked around and proved his innocence: "I didn't hire the killer. Do you believe me?"

"..."

There was only silence in response to the city lord. It was very obvious that no one really believed it... No matter how you think about it, you can't be separated from the city lord, right?

"Hey hey hey! It's really not me!"

The city lord was on the verge of tears. He suddenly realized...if something happened to someone in the Northern Territory, he really couldn't clear his suspicions.

But at this time...

"Ah, I believe you. Although City Lord, you don't have a big brain, but you won't hire a killer... Mainly because you are very stingy and don't feel like you are willing to spend money."

Lord Boch said so.

Although it was hard to hear what he said, the Lord of Beigang City still showed a moved expression and made a hug gesture: "Lord Boqi!"

Regarding the actions of the city lord, Lord Boqi chose to take a step back without hesitation, showing an expression of disgust and slight fear.

After all, Boqi didn't like men.

The city lord was not angry after being avoided. After all, he didn't like men either. He stood up and shouted: "Call the city defenders!"

"Envoys to reinforce the Northern Territory!"
