Chapter 158: New Neighbors
"Lord, why don't you go to my house for one night?"
Sensing Duke's thoughts, thinking that his lord would have no place to sleep tonight, Lenia on the side suddenly kindly suggested.
"What about me! I don't have a place to live! My money bag is still in it!"
Before Duke could return to Lenia's question, Agnes got up from the ground in tears and cried, forgetting that she had been kicked off the second floor by Lenia.
She had been living in the castle with Duke since she came out of the Dark Mountains, eating and drinking with all her luggage and belongings, and had almost completely treated the room she had stayed in as if it were her home.
Now that the castle has collapsed, her things are naturally lost inside, and she can't find them at all after a few days of searching, and may even be gone forever, so she can't help but feel miserable in her heart, and tears flow down like this.
"Then let Agnes go back with you for some time. Duke thought that it didn't seem good for him to go back to live with Lenia, so he asked Agnes to go with Lenia first, "I can go to Vlavich and Joseph, or just stay in the barracks." ”
It was only then that the soldiers assembled from the barracks arrived from a distance with their magic rifles on their backs, and in front of the line were a sparse dozen figures on war horses, led by Vlavich and Joseph and a group of officers.
"Lord, you're not hurt, are you?
Although Vlavich was old, he still recognized Duke at a glance in the dark, and hurriedly jumped down from the carriage and held Duke's arms and asked with concern.
"I'm fine, thanks to Agnes and Lenia. Duke also shook Vlavic's hands and shook his head to show that he was fine, "It's just that the old castle handed down from the family has collapsed......"
"It's okay, it's okay if you're fine!"
Joseph on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, and then arranged for the soldiers behind him to search the area around the castle to find the assassin so that the same thing would not happen again.
"Wait a minute, you don't have to search again. ”
"Why? What if the Assassins are still hiding around?"
Joseph, who was stopped by Duke, looked at his lord with some confusion, not understanding why there was no need to continue the search.
"The Assassin has already fled far away, and the strength of his escape is beyond our imagination. ”
"Definitely. Lenia also spoke up and said, "I can't feel his energy fluctuations in the northern fortress anymore, and it is estimated that he has already left the fortress." ”
"Is this assassin so powerful?"
Joseph, who was a little frightened, was surprised, but when he squinted at the ruined castle in the distance, he took it for granted.
Although he couldn't imagine what kind of battle could have caused the current result without extraordinary strength, as an ordinary person, he still had the awe of strength, so he beckoned and asked the soldiers to just stand guard around the ruins of the castle, waiting for Duke's next order.
"Disperse for now, and we'll discuss the details tomorrow. Duke looked around and realized it was too late, so he asked Lenia to gather the group and let everyone go back.
Agnes followed Lenia with her head bowed as she had planned, preparing to go to her house to rest.
Duke said to Joseph, "There should be a vacant room in the camp camp, right?"
"Of course, there is, we have built hundreds of houses, and now we can't divide ......them at all," Joseph replied reflexively, and then quickly reacted to Duke's meaning, and said incredulously: "You don't want to go to the camp for one night, do you? You might as well come to my house to live, and I guarantee that it is ten times more comfortable than over there!"
"No, no......," Duke waved his hand to reject the suggestion to go to Joseph's house, "a house in a camp is no worse than a castle, and it is well worth it." ”
Don't think that the aristocracy lives in castles, then castles are the best places in the world to live, on the contrary, if the castle is not well managed or unrepaired, it can easily become dark and damp, and it is not very warm, which makes Duke miss the modern suite he once lived in, and think of finding an opportunity to live in cement paste by himself.
Now the house in the camp is barely a super low-profile version of the cement house, and there is heating, as long as you find a good bed to put in it, then this sleeping experience is definitely far better than living in a castle, so Duke is still very willing to live in it.
"Effect?"
Hearing that his lord's residence in the camp had additional implications, Joseph couldn't help but wonder even more, and only thought that Duke was joking.
"As long as the lord doesn't mind, living in a camp camp is indeed a good choice. Vlavic, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly agreed with Duke's proposal, "The biggest problem with us recruiting homeless people now is that it is difficult to gain trust, if the news of the lord and the homeless people living together spreads, it will definitely make many homeless people change their views on the lord and join us." ”
"And this kind of benefit?" Joseph was skeptical of Vlavic's explanation, but since Vlavich and Duke had already made up their minds, he had no choice but to agree: "If the lord really thinks so, I have no opinion. ”
"Then let's settle it like this first, and we'll think about the rest tomorrow. ”
Seeing that both of his subordinates agreed with him, Duke smiled and grabbed Kino as he passed.
"My lord, what do you command?"
Keno, who was stopped by Duke, looked ignorant, he really couldn't understand how he was caught by the Duke and questioned just by passing by.
"I remember there are a lot of vacant rooms near your house, right?"
"Ah, it's true, I have a lot of family, and I live in a house built in the back, and I don't have many neighbors until now. ”
"Okay, you take me there now, I'll be your neighbor from tonight onwards!"
Well?
What neighbors?
Before Kino could understand what his lord meant, he couldn't figure out how the lord who had always been high in his mind could become his new neighbor, but in this way, he took Duke and walked towards the outcasts in the distance......
