Baron? Noble?
The topic was way too sudden and astounding that I couldn’t catch up .
It was quite a large leap to switch from Jobless to Noble .
That’s right, I must not become a noble in the first place . After all, I must not change my first job .
Once I change Jobless into another job, I would not be able to return to Jobless again .
Furthermore, there would be all kinds of restrictions once I become a noble . For example, I would have to participate if a war ever broke out .
A coward such as myself who still dreams of the bandit and thieves that I killed will not be able to kill others in a war … or even worse, if I appeared in war and thoughtlessly wielded my overpowered status with a weak mind, it might even result in the death of hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of people .
I don’t want something like that to happen .
I will have to politely refuse .
It’s a bitter decision but I have no choice .
“Erm … I will have to politely —”
“If you become a Baron, you will be able to travel to the port town of Genova that has been blockaded . Furthermore, originally if the main house who bestows the rank gives an order, in this case, me, you have the duty to attend but I will exempt you from that . This is the greatest gift of appreciation I can present to you for being this island’s benefactor . ”
He suddenly started giving concessions!?
I couldn’t show it on my face but I was taken aback by Earl Paul’s words .
Guh, in that case, I can’t refuse him on the basis that I don’t wish to participate in wars .
Furthermore, I could travel to the port town of Genova … I could also use it as a pretense to rescue Miri .
I have been cornered quite considerably .
Does that mean I could no longer refuse?
Suzuki spoke while I was troubled .
“Kusunoki-kun, you might be concerned that your status would decrease if your job changes but Baron is not a noble rank but one that serves nobles … in other words, it is treated as a quasi-noble and will not change your job . ”
“Eh? Really?”
Now that I think about it, only royalty or the pope can bestow nobility .
It seemed that I had jumped to conclusions .
“Yup, you would be confused as a citizen though . Moreover, as I mentioned yesterday, the Church Headquarters will definitely engage Kusunoki-kun to become a noble if they knew about your heaven’s blessing but if you become a baron under Earl Paul, you could use it as an excuse to refuse them . ”
In that case, there aren’t any issues at all?
I no longer had any reason to refuse .
“How about it, Ichinojo-dono . ”
“I will humbly receive it . ”
I said and knelt on the ground .
Earl Paul nodded while looking satisfied .
“Then, I shall bestow peerage to you . Firstly, I will follow the order and bestow to you the rank of Knight . ‘Peerage conferment: Ichinojo’ . ”
” …… ”
Eh? It’s done?
Nothing happened though .
I thought to myself .
“Hn? It seemed to have failed . ”
I didn’t expect it to fail .
“Is your name not Ichinojo?”
“It is Ichinojou . ”
“Oo, I see . Sorry, then — ”
Earl Paul repeated the ceremony — it wasn’t as grand as it sounded though — once again .
“Peerage conferment: Ichinojou . ”
Immediately after his sentence ended,
【Title: Knighthood acquired】
【Title: Quasi-noble acquired】
【Job: Knight is now available】
Oo, I unknowingly unlocked a cool job .
If I raise that to Lv50 and become a noble, will I be able to become a Holy Knight?
Well, I will not become a noble but if I could acquire the noble job with the Job Seeking skill for a day, I might be able to unlock the Holy Knight job .
It sounds a little weird to be a single day noble though .
“Following that, ‘Raise peerage: Ichinojou’ . ”
Earl Paul continued .
Then,
【Title: Baron acquired】
This time, I only received a title .
“That would mark the end of the ceremony . From now on, I will guarantee Ichinojou’s identity as a Baron with my authority as an Earl . In addition, quasi-nobles will be able to enjoy various privileges . I trust that Ichinojou-dono who has Suzuki-dono’s trust will not misuse them . ”
Earl Paul said and handed to me a brooch that proves my identity as a Baron as well as, perhaps he heard from Suzuki, a letter addressed to Marquis Yutings who is the governor of the port town of Genova .
Was my current position Suzuki’s past position?
But I was grateful .
With that, I could travel to Genova .
As for a ship, I still had the ship built by Pionia so I could probably travel using that .
