Reincarnated as the fourth son of a noble and tamed an SS-rank dragon-Chapter 32: Darius dies

Kaly, Darius, and Zenith were walking through the forest near the trading town. After a while they began to attract some monsters and slaughtered them quickly, they were stronger and the blows were fast enough that the assassins hired by Acteri couldn’t see them.

Darius hadn’t noticed, but Zenith and Kaly were demonstrating their strength to ward off the assassins, but that wasn’t enough, two of them started attacking Darius when they saw that he was distracted. But Zenith moved quickly and thrust his hand into the chest and ripped out the heart of one of the assassins. The second had his head cut off by Kaly.

"I didn’t want it to come to this. Do you have anything against me killing these people?" Kaly asked Darius.

"He probably wanted to kill me, so I don’t care."

On hearing this, Kaly approached the group of assassins, there were ten of them, she had killed nine and the remaining one was trembling. Kaly approached him and asked him to warn her that next time she will kill the contractor and make him feel a lot of pain first and only kill him when he begs for it.

The assassin began to run wildly and he stumbled a few times.

"This merchant is a problem, I’ll report his behavior to the King, but I don’t think he’ll do anything about it. These scumbags always have some connection that keeps them in power."

"Simple, can we kill your son in the next tournament, or is it not allowed?"

"As far as I know it’s allowed, but I don’t know if it would be worth it."

Darius didn’t want to get involved in the conversation, but he believed that killing his son would make everything worse, especially the son of someone as powerful as Acteri.

At the same time, he agreed on some punishment and that perhaps only death would be too light. He was gradually becoming a little more like Kaly and that scared him somehow.

Darius thought for a few minutes, he had the idea of creating a commercial rivalry, selling the products that Acteri sells at a price that he couldn’t compete with, with which he could bankrupt Acteri or just diminish the power he has. Kaly accepted the idea, so she held Zenith and Darius’ hands and they appeared in the mansion. She used teleportation magic, but she hated using it because it cost too much mana and too much magical energy.

They went to the village and there they signed another agreement, now they would produce a list of spices and some grains. The villagers accepted, as it meant more money in their pockets. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

They returned to the mansion and talked to Nyme, who was preparing some potions, and then they explained it to Lucian, who found the idea interesting, but he had some fears, but he could deal with the risks, since Acteri couldn’t go against a nobleman, even though he was the ruler of the city, there was still a social hierarchy of power.

Kaly was a little tired, but she used the teleportation magic again and they returned to the forest. They were heading for the border town of Verma, which is known as the commercial and diplomatic town of Velmont, bordering two countries, as well as being the town where agreements are usually signed with other countries, due to its proximity to other countries.

Velmont is a country that is close to the sea, the city that is closest to other countries is this one.

It is ruled by Count Thadeus Blackthorn, he was known as a man who could be loved by almost everyone, so he was the perfect ruler for the city, with his charisma he could manage all the important agreements that were delegated to him.

Kaly started flying with the two of them in her arms, she kept flying until she got close to the city, they walked the rest of the way, there at the gate they showed the adventurer’s card, with which they could enter any city without paying a toll.

They went to the Count’s mansion, but he wasn’t there, so they talked to his wife, Catherine, explained everything they were doing and she agreed to help. They would stay at the mansion until the day they left, Kaly thought it was a good idea, she hated inns.

At dinner, they chatted and Catherine kept praising her youngest daughter, Amanda, she wanted Darius to show some interest in her. Catherine knew he was a merchant in the capital, so it would be interesting to have her daughter engaged to him. But Darius didn’t show any interest in her, but in Adelaide, his eldest daughter, who had large breasts caught his eye. Somehow, these breasts reminded him of his mother’s.

The Count wouldn’t be back until the next day so that they couldn’t talk to him until then.

Catherine kept complimenting her daughter, but she realized that it had no effect on Darius, so she stopped for the time being.

When it came to sorting out the rooms, Kaly said she’d be in the same one as Darius, Zenith said he’d be in the same room. The maid thought it was strange, but agreed.

Catherine was curious about this, he was too young to have two servants serving him like this, but this behavior was acceptable but strange. The nobles of the capital were more open to various relationships, including mistresses. In the more distant cities, this was rarer, although mistresses were common, it wasn’t talked about and could result in problems with the wives. That’s why they hid it. The wives also had lovers and this was also hidden.

On the question of second wives, they did exist, but it was hard to find, it was more common to divorce and then remarry.

Catherine didn’t want to judge this behavior especially as she wanted him to marry her daughter.

Kaly was only wearing her small panties and Zenith was naked, Darius was wearing pajamas. Zenith had a beautiful body, but her breasts were small and that didn’t please Darius. He liked it when she was in her real form, he liked to stroke her tail, Kaly got jealous and asked him to do the same to her. Darius had a certain attraction to different body parts, such as tails, ears, and wings. Horns he wasn’t attracted to, but he found them interesting. To be honest, he wanted to sleep with a beast woman, he wanted to stroke those ears.

The next day they had coffee and before the Count’s return, they went to a nearby village and helped with the planting, Kaly spreading the word that this was the Lestor family’s magic. People believed the story.

As they were leaving the village they were stopped by some mercenaries, they knew they were in front of Darius Lesto and Kaly. They had been sent by someone who wanted them dead, it could have been Acteri or someone else.

"Who sent you here?"

"Do you really think we’ll talk?"

Darius raised his finger and an ice arrow came out and hit the man’s arm, the shot was very fast and strong, and his arm was torn apart.

"Answer or you’ll all die," Darius was angry.

"A boy won’t put fear into us," the leader said.

Darius got angrier, he shot several times in a row and made them all fall to the ground, they were all wounded and the arrows were so fast that it took them a while to realize that they were dyed, the intense pain just came and made them fall.

"Zenith, kill them all."

She was getting close to finishing, but the leader began to say who had sent them. It was Count Oliver Frostmourne.

Darius knew the story with Zenith, he was tired of the Count, and he considered him a weak and useless man.

"Kill him soon."

Zenith finished.

"Let’s put the body in the Count’s mansion, it’ll scare him off and maybe he’ll give up on us, I think he’s gone too far and we’d better stop this..." Before he could finish, some mage hit him in the chest with an ice spell, and he fell to the ground dead. The sensation was the same as when he had been shot, but this time he died more quickly and with less pain.
