In the midst of this agony, Martti's waiter announces that he heard Martti was Knighted (administratively, without granting him knighthood in a specific chivalric order). Martti is dumbfounded. He was considering this a possibility when he was suffering the troubles of the Dragon Quest, but the dragon cheated in the first encounter, and nothing happened once Martti came back.
So his idea turned back to the Master (L6) route, which would allow about 10-15 more years of salaries. Under the current system, nobles do not receive any salary, so the difference between getting Baronized via Knight (L11) is 15 mil less money than via Master.
Because it is the 200th anniversary of the throne room, a largish number of commoners were ennobled and nobles promoted (8 in total). ChrisPop was also knighted and Red Erin is finally officially Baroness, after the King had promised this to happen to all the Manor lords long time ago. It is rumored that Martti's promotion was because of the dragon quest after all, and Sir Crichton had been soliciting the idea to the King.
Martti opts for being called Knight Martti for now. Sir Martti sounds too preposterous. Blue suit he already has, and is aiming to keep the ancient red one as well, considering in his mind that owning a blue suit is enough in this situation, it is still possible to wear red in business. Martti also considers keeping a servant grey set for the quests.
Being unable to think, suits very badly with trying to fix the bids and asks, so Martti gives up after a quarter-hour of useless trying. He is happy to see the M balance at 10 mil though, which will allow more business when the strength and clarity comes back.
