I Was Excommunicated From the Holy Knights chapter 6
6 – Legal transaction with no legal flaws 1
A building located in the city’s central market.
Considering that it was located in the shopping area, there was a group of people gathered there at this time, which was quite large.
Six people, regardless of age and gender, seated and seated
One old man and two middle-aged men, and two young men and one young woman.
However, although there are differences in age and gender, there are several things in common at this moment.
The one is. All six of them are dressed in very luxurious clothes, indicating that they are enjoying considerable wealth.
And the other was that all six of them were currently holding this position with serious expressions on their faces, albeit to varying degrees.
They look as if they are feeling quite complex emotions just by being here.
Some people were drinking water glasses as if they were thirsty, and one of them was sweating profusely and could not hide his anxious heart.
At that time, there was a heavy silence between them for a while…
In the end, one person who could not stand the frustration began to open his mouth.
“Um… really… is it okay for us to be here like this?”:
The first to speak was a man belonging to the youngest axis in the party.
Regarding this, another young man who was sitting with him also opened his mouth in a voice filled with anxiety as if he had waited.
“To be honest, I don’t know either. Although we are the ones who have benefited from Mr. Santana so far, no matter how much we do business with the excommunicated person…”
“Be quiet, what if the young people are so undistributed!”
“As you know, Santana has many records and ledgers of transactions with us. Don’t you know that no matter how sharp the archbishop’s blade is, if Santa or he tries to kill us, we won’t be safe either?”
At the words of the young men, the middle-aged man expressed his discomfort and spoke in a vehement tone.
However, the elderly man who had been silent all along while watching them opened his mouth with a calm voice.
“Is that what you guys were thinking? Hee hee, this is true… But if the name of the manager of the famous branch came here because he was afraid of such things, it would be a bit disappointing for this old man.”
“Ha.. but the branch manager. Isn’t that true?”
“We are talking among ourselves, but among them are legally problematic transaction items. It doesn’t matter if it’s Santa or him since he’ll be leaving soon, but if he leaves and exposes it…”
“ha..”
The middle-aged man spoke with anxiety, and the old man called the branch manager sighed lightly.
And then, he slowly.
He turned his gaze to the young woman sitting across from him.
A beauty with long, glossy blue hair, dark blue eyes, a pretty alluring face, and a pretty good figure.
Looking at her, the branch manager lowered his head politely and said in a polite voice.
“I’m sorry, Miss Amalia, it seems that my education was lacking in many ways.”
“No, it is quite possible when a person is in a situation that is considered urgent. Moreover, it will be even more so if there is physical evidence such as ledgers. But…”
With that said, starting to get a little interested in the feeling of seriousness. She asked, looking at the old man in front of her.
“Looks like you didn’t have much fear about meeting the excommunicated paladin after waking up, the branch manager. Do you have a corner that you believe in?”
“hahahaha, it can’t be. There is no such thing as a corner where an old man like his conviction believes. It’s just that my senses have dulled as I’ve gotten older.”
In fact, among the people sitting here, he was the branch manager with the strongest influence limited to this city, so his words should be half-joking.
A person with power that even the Archbishop, who oversees not only this city, but the whole area, can’t do anything about it.
however..
At least the other men here could vaguely recognize that his attitude wasn’t just because of the power he possessed.
And then, in a calm voice, the branch manager continued talking while looking at her… Amalia.
“But it is. Isn’t it also true that there is no need to feel particularly afraid? Just like you already know.”
“hehehe.. Yes, it is as the branch manager said.”
While having a conversation that only each other can understand, the two of them smile while quietly thinking about their intellectual superiority.
Although the other branch managers still didn’t seem to notice, these two clearly knew.
Why are they gathered here at this moment?
To be precise,
Why did Santana, a former excommunicated paladin and one of their most important customers, ask to see them? Because they already had a rough idea.
‘In the next four days or so, the excommunication will be dealt with and he will have to leave this place. In the meantime, just packing up and getting ready to leave would be mind-boggling.’
‘But that kind of person dared to make us gather in one place like this. This must mean that they want to do some kind of business with us.’
If you think simply, it could be that you want to buy the land and house you own, but the two knew that it wouldn’t be that simple.
Even if they were the richest men in town, it would be impossible to raise enough money in the short term to buy and sell everything Santana owned.
If that’s the case, if they wanted to sell only part of it, they would have improvised the deal without having to send a letter like this, quietly giving notice, and calling themselves together.
‘Considering that people who don’t have the time to work like this… there must be something.’
‘He’s the one who came up with unusual trading laws we didn’t know about and took advantage in unexpected ways. Wouldn’t it be sure to use something special this time? I don’t know, but it’s clear that things won’t go the way that Archbishop wants…”
Even though he has a status that seems to be far away from the business of being a Holy Knight. His special talent has been shown in the contracts and deals he has done with Santana over the past year.
This brought freshness and surprise to the point of admiration even to those who live on commerce.
To be honest, if this incident had ended at the level of being kicked out of the Holy Knights, rather than the extreme case of excommunication, I would have scouted Santana right now at the upper level.
Like that, they calmly waited for the hero of the day to come in, feeling a little anticipation of what kind of bomb this man would have prepared.
And after a while…
“Mr. Santana is here.”
The voice of the attendant came through the door.
As a result, those in the room began to feel a little nervous.
Their eyes then began to see Santana entering the conference room with a beautiful paladin.
“Thank you so much for all of you gathering like this even though you are busy.”
Santana speaks with a smile on his lips as always.
Seeing this, the branch manager’s face had a slight stiff smile on his face, while the branch manager and Amalia greeted him with a calm smile comparable to Santana’s.
Like that, Santana sat down after a brief greeting.
Right after that… he erased the smile on his face and looked at everyone with a serious voice and said.
“Well, since everyone is busy, I’ll get straight to the point.”
With that, Santana opens the bag she brought and takes out the heavy paperwork inside.
The moment they saw it, the faces of Amalia and the branch manager began to show expressions that, as expected, things had come.
“The reason I came here is this… to dispose of all of my wealth that I have accumulated so far.”
