Lord of War

Lomingen has a new viscount, and the fact that he has a relationship with Soma Hastings, the well-deserved king of Lomingen, quickly spread among the wealthy businessmen and noble circles of Lomingen.

It has to be said that these guys are all guys who are very good at turning the rudder when they see the wind.

A day ago, when I heard that the viscount Xiao En had a conflict with the Yeros family, many people were in the state of watching the show. This can be seen when Xiao En left the tavern that day, and many people peeped secretly. come out. But I didn't expect that after only one day, the whole circle of Luo Mingen immediately turned the wind, and many people even sent invitations to Xiao En, inviting him to participate in a dinner party or an event in the salon area.

For these invitations, Sean naturally used excuses to shirk them all.

He is currently concentrating all his attention on Hastings Manor, so he has no time to deal with these meaningless entertainments. Besides, these people are all nobles of the Kingdom of Darbion, and there are still no honorable nobles on the ground. Once the war between the Principality of Ryan and the Kingdom of Darbion breaks out completely, these nobles will immediately be no different from civilians, even in some countries. Well, once a war breaks out, the nobles of honor can't wait to take off their noble titles.

Because in the slave market, there is no difference between the honorary nobles and the real nobles, as long as they hang the title of nobles, they will suffer more insults.

However, although the Principality of Lane also retains slavery, it is not based on slavery like other countries, so there are actually not many slaves in the Principality. However, in this way, once a war breaks out in the Principality of Ryan, there will be no slave army to act as cannon fodder to consume the enemy's combat power. Therefore, most of the battle damage that needs to be borne during the war is caused by the private soldiers of the nobles. bear.

Sean didn't intend to have any friendship with these honorable nobles, so of course it was impossible to go to the banquet. But the subtle thing is that even though these people knew that Sean had rejected their invitation, they didn't feel humiliated at all. It's okay for those rich businessmen to say that they are still common people after all, and the nobles would think highly of them if they wanted to attend the banquet. , but there are several nobles whose status is no lower than Sean's, and there is even a person who is higher than Domingo Hastings only in terms of title.

Jeles, Marquis of Cassian.

This marquis is trying to transform into a real nobleman. Once the transformation is successful, his title status will immediately start to rise, and in a sense, he can even be with Domingo. A powerful earl like Hastings is on an equal footing.

At present, there are rumors in the Kingdom of Darbion that this marquis has successfully established a relationship with the Nugus family, and the Nugus family is also very happy to have an extra Marquis family that is vassal to him, so they are working hard to make a contribution for Yelai. Skarsson made a fuss. And it is precisely because of this relationship with Nugus that Yeles and Marquis Cassian were invited by the Hastings family to be guests in Tinchin's domain. The Marquis arranges the matter.

Logically speaking, the Marquis invited Sean. If Sean did not attend, he should feel ashamed. The friendship of a family may require the efforts of several generations, but if it is the quarrel between two families, it is often just because the invitation to a banquet was rejected.

Moreover, the Marquis is now in Lomingen, but he is almost second only to Soma. After all, the news that the Nugus family supported the Marquis could spread among the aristocratic circles of the imperial capital, it was almost a certainty, so these honorary nobles and businessmen in Lomingen,

Of course, we must be careful to please this future big shot.

Because when Sean rejected the Marquis' invitation, he was probably offending the Marquis.

It's just that Sean wasn't from the Darbion Kingdom in the first place, so of course he didn't care. But when he actually met the Marquis, Sean was inexplicably chilled, because he couldn't see any expression of displeasure or resentment on the Marquis' face, and the other party even had a smile on his face. Take the initiative to say hello to yourself.

"Viscount Fran, you are really young and promising." Marquis Jeles greeted Sean with a smile on his face.

The Marquis of Yeles Qiansan is a middle-aged man who is over fifty years old. Strictly speaking, he can even be regarded as entering the ranks of the elderly.

But even though the Marquis Jeleskasain has silver hair, he gives Sean the feeling of a boy with white hair, especially his eyes are not cloudy at all, but full of wisdom unique to old people. Moreover, the clothes he wears are not the kind of dress that nobles often wear, but a loose robe that magicians often wear. There are people who believe in magicians.

Regarding the greeting from the Marquis of Jeles, Sean still understands the aristocratic etiquette. He also greeted the other party, but it was just to stop, obviously not intending to go too deep into the conversation.

Such a move, even in the aristocratic circle, can be regarded as an expression of extreme arrogance.

Naturally, the cold snort that Sean imagined came out, but what surprised Sean was that it was not the Marquis of Jeleskasain who made the cold snort, but the man who was standing in Jelai. Si, the young woman beside Kasain.

This woman has long black hair, and her appearance is not particularly beautiful, at least in front of Sean, who is used to seeing Cecilia and has seen beauties like Elizabeth. How exquisite it is. But her icy appearance and the awe-inspiring aura that accompanied the cold snort made Sean think of Cefanio. For a moment, Sean even thought that this person belonged to Cefanio. sisters.

Of course, only in terms of temperament.

"Don't be presumptuous." Marquis Jeles turned his head and reprimanded lightly with a straight face.

"Grandpa!" The woman looked at Marquis Yeles in disbelief. Because of being lightly reprimanded, the icy aura on the woman instantly disintegrated, revealing a grievance like a little woman.

"I'm really sorry to make Viscount Fran laugh at you." Marquis Jeles ignored his granddaughter, but turned his head and explained to Sean with a smile, "This is my granddaughter, Christina, who has been spoiled since she was a child." I hope Viscount Fran will not be offended."

"No." Sean said with a smile, but his eyes casually turned to another person on the field.

Kazi.

Baron Soma Hastings, the private secretary of Lord Lomingen.

Seeing Sean's gaze, Kazi bowed respectfully first. His words and deeds could be compiled into a servant textbook, and there was absolutely nothing to criticize. Especially even at this moment, he has an awe-inspiring aura, because he knows very well that the person he represents at this moment is Soma, Hastings, so if he does something rude, it is not only him who will be ashamed, Even Soma Hastings is being dragged into the water.

This is the first time Xiao En has encountered a person who is so calm that he is almost completely emotionless, like a robot, after he came to this world.

Only after Kazi saluted Sean, he said: "Master Soma was supposed to accompany you to visit the Hastings Manor today, but I couldn't come because the Lord was busy, so I invited Ye Lai." Sir Marquis Si is here to accompany you."

Sean frowned.

However, although this movement was very subtle, it was still captured by Kazi, but because Sean was facing Kazi, only Kazi saw Sean's movement, and Jeles next to him did not. However, with Kazi's intelligence, of course he would not say such a thing. He just thought that Xiao En felt that such an arrangement was not respectful enough for him, so he explained again: "Master Yeles Marquis is Hayes He is a frequent visitor to the Manor, and the Marquis has also lived in the manor recently, so he is very familiar with everything in the manor. Even the members of the Hastings family in the manor are not necessarily more familiar with the manor than the Marquis.

Kazi's words were very artistic. On the one hand, he raised the status of Jeles and Sean, almost as if he was saying that he was the owner of Hastings Manor, and on the other hand, he emphasized If a Marquis accompanied Sean to visit the Hastings Manor, Sean would also be honored. With just a simple sentence, two people were pleasing at the same time, which made Sean value Qazi even more.

Now that we've said all this, Sean will certainly not be ignorant, so naturally he readily agreed to this arrangement. And Kazi was obviously only acting as an introducer. After confirming that Sean would not have any dislike, he immediately left and returned to Lomingen. Ma is really there for something, and not just as an excuse.

It's just that, will Sean feel disgusted when he is not accompanied by his real master?

Obviously not.

He was just showing a feeling of dissatisfaction. In fact, Sean didn't feel disgusted or dissatisfied at all. Because if it was Soma who took Sean to visit Hastings Manor, there would definitely be many places that were not allowed to enter, but now if someone else came to accompany Sean to visit, then these so-called restricted areas would naturally not exist. , maybe even Jeles is also very interested in these places, otherwise, how could he, a marquis who is about to become a real nobleman, come to be the guide of his viscount?

This is completely out of character.

"I hope we can get along well today." Jeles said to Sean with a smile.

"I hope so too." Sean also responded with a smile.

"etc!"

However, just as everyone was about to enter Hastings Manor, the granddaughter of Marquis Jeles, Christina Cassian, suddenly yelled. Everyone turned their heads to look at Christina in some confusion. They didn't understand why Christina, who had behaved so well after being reprimanded by Jeles before, would suddenly shout at this moment.

"Viscount Frandumoy." Christina said as she took off the white glove on her left hand.

When Xiao En saw this move, he frowned slightly, and couldn't help moaning in his heart: This crazy woman, will she...

Before Sean could finish thinking, Christina threw the glove directly on Sean's face: "I want to duel with you!"

In an instant, the faces of Alfred, Anno, and Marquis Jeles immediately became extremely exciting.

However, Marquis Jeles had a headache, while Alfred and Annuo looked a little weird.

The woman named Christina in front of me can tell at a glance that she has just stabilized in the upper silver realm, and no matter how you look at it, when Sean is clearly at the peak of the upper silver, who gave this woman the courage? What made her dare to challenge Sean? [This text is provided by Qihang Update Group @偶世尊尊] If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.
