Chapter 0539: Under the Petition of Nomination
Sure enough, just as Viscount Neil was about to leave, Count Kevin greeted him out of nowhere, and he shouted in his mouth, "Senior Neil, don't be in a hurry to leave first." ”
Looking at his enthusiastic expression, I didn't know that I thought his father was here.
Earl Kevin took two steps forward, opened his arms and said with a smile, "I am busy with official business, I didn't expect Senior Neil to come, and I didn't want to be far away, I hope I don't blame it." ”
Do the two know each other, but naturally they know each other
They used to be students of the Royal Academy of Magic in Arthur's Kingdom, but Viscount Neil was a few years older than each other, and he enrolled earlier, so he mixed up the name of a senior.
There are very few people with magical talents, and even fewer people have the financial resources to learn magic, and there are only more than four hundred students in the entire magic academy, so they naturally know each other.
Viscount Neil has a peculiar appearance, and he also had a lot of troubles during his studies, which impressed many people, including Earl Kevin.
Therefore, when the guard said what the person looked like, he thought of the other party almost without much thought.
Count Kevin didn't want to deal with Viscount Neil, as the head of the hereditary earl family, he and Ben looked down on a court nobleman like Viscount Neil, and more importantly, this guy was not the first in line to the throne.
However, feng shui takes turns, and people are now messengers sent by Governor Renard to deliver messages, and they always come out to entertain them without looking at the face of the monk and looking at the face of the Buddha.
So Count Kevin adjusted his mentality and won out in person, but he kept comforting himself in his heart that I was welcoming Governor Renard.
Seeing the person who came, and then listening to this affectionate title, Viscount Neil was very proud in his heart.
Fortunately, it has not yet reached the point of forgetfulness, and a few years of sleeping in the open have made him see through the warmth and coldness of human feelings, and directly see that Earl Kevin is forcing a smile.
However, he didn't say anything more, and turned to hug the other party.
After the two separated, Viscount Neil patted each other's shoulders like an elder, and said with a smile, "Don't blame me for visiting rashly and disturbing the Daoist junior." ”
Earl Kevin smiled when he heard this, "What did the senior say, you can come to me as a guest, I'm too late to be happy." ”
He pretended to be affectionate and took Viscount Neil's hand, pressed him back into his chair, and then ordered his attendant to make tea.
Immediately afterwards, he showed an embarrassed expression on his face, "Time flies so fast, counting, it has been nearly thirty years since I graduated from the academy, which means that we haven't seen each other for almost thirty years." ”
Hearing this, Viscount Neil's unfazed cheeks finally twitched slightly, because there was too much fat on his cheeks, so his expression changed a lot.
This immediately attracted the attention of Earl Kevin, and then he remembered that this senior had not graduated yet, and he couldn't help but be embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
In the past, when he met classmates with the same status as himself, Earl Kevin would use this set of rhetoric, which could be regarded as playing the emotional card and bringing the relationship between the two parties closer.
It's just that this time it's really inappropriate, Viscount Neil has been studying at the Academy of Magic for nearly forty years, and he is still at the level of a beginner magic apprentice, and he was kicked out of the academy halfway, which is definitely the past he doesn't want to talk about.
The atmosphere seemed a little awkward, but in the end, it was Viscount Neil who broke the stalemate, he grinned and said, "Brother Kaiwen, I didn't expect you to be so beautiful, if I had known, I wouldn't have to suffer so much in vain." ”
Since the other party gave him a step down, Count Kevin naturally wanted to go down, and he pretended to be surprised and asked, "What do you mean by suffering, isn't the senior concentrating on cultivation in the academy?"
Viscount Neil knew that he was deliberately pretending to be stupid, but he didn't poke it, and his expression recounted his experience in recent years helplessly.
He didn't hide anything, he said it in detail and touching, and when he talked about emotion, there were even tears in his eyes.
Viscount Neil swore that this was definitely not sensational, but really emotional, and every time he remembered that experience, he would feel extremely aggrieved.
Earl Kevin seemed to be touched by his miserable experience, and couldn't help but feel a little sentimental, "Why did the senior come to me at this time, if it was a few years earlier, he would not have suffered so much." ”
Viscount Neil raised his hand and interrupted, "Fortunately, these things have passed, and I have now inherited the family title, and I have been appreciated by Governor Renard, and serving as a diplomatic adviser can be regarded as a bittersweet end." ”
Just now, it was to reminisce about the past, in order to ease the relationship between the two sides, and now it is time to get to the point.
Earl Kevin heard the words and said, "The name of Governor Renard is simply like thunder, and he will single-handedly quell the demon disaster in Nanhuang County."
Long blowing
After the shhh, he said, "The senior can serve under the command of the Governor, which really makes me very envious." ”
Viscount Neil waved his hand and said with a wry smile, "What am I, if the junior brother is under the command of the Governor, I am afraid that the position will be more than a hundred times stronger than mine." ”
When he said this, he actually made it clear that the time had come to stand in line.
Earl Kevin naturally heard the subtext of the other party, but shook his head and smiled, "I really want to serve under the Governor, but the responsibility is on my shoulders, and the safety of Kale County is my own body, and I can't do things according to my own wishes." ”
When he said this, he did not refuse, nor did he answer.
The intentions were obvious, and he had to weigh them.
However, Viscount Neil received a death order from Lei Ye, and he must win over the 30,000 defenders of Kale County no matter what.
If the solicitation is unsuccessful, then go to war directly, and take his head to sacrifice the flag before the war.
It's about his own future, or even about his life, how dare Viscount Neil not do his best.
He cleared his throat and said as if understanding, "That's right, now that the bandits in Kale County are rampant, and there are demons everywhere, and the junior brother, as the commander of the garrison, has a great responsibility." ”
Immediately afterwards, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and said with a smile, "But don't worry, junior brother, in a few days, the world will be peaceful in Kale County." ”
Hearing this, Earl Kevin raised his eyebrows slightly, and then pretended to be surprised and asked, "Oh, how do you say this?"
Viscount Neil smiled and asked, "The junior brother probably didn't participate in the big court meeting last month."
Count Kevin nodded, "That's right, I have been busy with official business recently, and the demons in the Ten Thousand Beasts Forest have shown signs of raising their heads, so I didn't go to the Great Dynasty Meeting." ”
Viscount Neil showed a clear expression, but his expression was a little exaggerated, "Oh no wonder"
He showed a smile on his face, as if he was happy for the other party, "Don't you know, His Majesty the King ordered at the Great Imperial Council to gather heavy troops and march into Kale County, which is bound to clear the bandits and demons here. ”
"Governor Renard was ordered by the king to assist in the war, and now 140,000 soldiers have entered the territory of Kale County. ”
Earl Kevin, a hundred thousand armor soldiers, suddenly remembered the report of the young guard, and did not doubt him, but felt that his legs suddenly became a little weak.
