With the idea of solving the problem, Atran consulted with Mike again and came up with a brilliant solution.

Then the two went their separate ways, and Atram rode a magic motorcycle to the Duke's territory.

Mike stays behind and continues to help Uncle Moccardo.

……

In the afternoon of the same day.

After riding his motorcycle for an hour, Atran came across a medium-sized city, which was the Duke's capital...... The size of the city is around 200,000.

In the heart of the city, there is also a tall castle.

Obviously, this is the destination of Atranham, the Duke's Castle.

How to get in there?

How to meet the Duke, and the Duke's son, the Level 4 Demon Netwalker.

It's very simple.

Buy an expensive and gorgeous costume with a few valuable pieces of equipment and hire two squires on the fly...... The whole set of expenses is less than 10 gold tower guilders.

Then take a few items brought from the Oruña Empire such as "pocket watches", "short-barreled firearms", "multi-purpose sabers" and other items as gifts, and take the initiative to visit the Duke's Palace.

With his identity as a Demon Net Walker and his fellow members of the Blue Hand Guild, how could the other party turn him away?

And that's exactly what happened.

When he heard that a demon network walker came to visit, the Duke's Mansion attached great importance to it and did not dare to slack off at all, and the butler immediately respectfully invited Atran, the "Lord", into the Duke's Palace.

Sitting in the living room, waiting for a while, and only half of the tea in his hand was drunk, Duke Robert put down his official duties and came to entertain him in person.

"Your Excellency the Duke is polite. ”

Atran put down his teacup and quickly got up to give a salute.

"Distinguished guests are coming, hurry up and get rid of the courtesy!"

Duke Robert was very warm and polite.

Atram also found it difficult to distinguish between loyalty and treachery in this world, and he had previously thought that this black-hearted Duke was either a big poop and a treacherous face, or an ugly face and vulgar manners, but in fact, Duke Robert was not only good in appearance and elegant in manners, but also polite and hospitable.

It feels very decent.

If it is a person who meets for the first time and does not know the details of the duke, it is estimated that he will be confused by his decent appearance.

Of course, even though he knew the details of Duke Robert, Atran remained silent, talked with him very pleasantly, and duly sent him a few gifts that he had brought.

A gold-plated pocket watch.

A short-barreled firecracker.

A multifunctional saber with a delicate scabbard that resembles a handicraft.

And introduced them one by one.

"Lord Duke, this is a precision pocket watch from the Oruña Empire, with 12 scales representing the 12 hours, and three hands for hours, minutes and seconds, the shortest being the hour hand and the longest being the second hand...... The watch divides the day into 24 hours, each hour is divided into 60 minutes, and each minute is divided into 60 seconds...... The accuracy of this watch is very high, the error does not exceed 1 second per day, and it is driven by mechanical spring charging, which is not only waterproof, but also has a low-light night vision function, and can see the time on the watch at any time. ”

"This short-barreled firearm was given to the duke's son, Young Master Salosa, I heard that Young Master Salosa likes to hunt, this firearm I brought is an artifact for hunting, it is very powerful, within twenty steps, it can kill a large beast, the accuracy is average, and it can also be used for self-defense, in short, as long as it is used well, this gadget, Young Master Salosa should like it very much." ”

"There is also this multi-functional saber for the field, which is also given to Master Salosha, it has a lot of functions on it, in addition to ordinary cutting and chopping, there are some serrations on the back of the knife, which can see some things with a smaller diameter, and there is a layer of coating on the knife surface for ignition, rubbing with stones, you can hit a lot of sparks, and the other is that the quality of the knife is very good, it will never rust, even if it is used regularly, it can be used for more than ten years. ”

Hear these introductions.

Duke Robert became uneasy, his face was extremely surprised, but he waved his hand and refused politely.

"It's so precious, these few gifts, it's so precious!"

"Take it back, take it back, I can't take it, I definitely can't take it!"

Robert still has a bit of an eye, and none of these three things are cheap.

Take that pocket watch as an example, Robert knows that this is a pocket watch from the Orunian Empire, which has been very popular among the aristocracy in the past two years, and is the most fashionable tool to show off wealth.

Robert also considered buying a piece and then taking it out at a gathering of nobles, pretending to find someone to match the time, admiring the embarrassment on the faces of those nobles who did not have a watch.

And the embarrassment like that, Robert has encountered it a few times, and at that moment he wanted to cut people a little, and he also had the idea of asking the housekeeper to buy two pocket watches.

But......

The price of millions of pearls is enough for him to raise 100,000 soldiers and horses for a year, and he is reluctant to pay this money.

Now there are distinguished guests who come to the door and take the initiative to give a pocket watch, saying that it is impossible for Robert to say that he is not impressed.

As for the short-barreled firearm and the multi-functional saber, although the value is not comparable to that of a pocket watch, it can be judged from its exquisite packaging, the appearance of inlaid with various gemstones, and the beauty of handicrafts, that the value of both items is more than 100,000 pearls.

The magnanimity of the strange guest in front of him really surprised Duke Robert.

"Please take it from the Duke!"

Atran explains:

"I came to visit this time, I heard that Ling Lang is talented, his cultivation is extremely high, and it is said that he has the title of 'the first in the kingdom'...... Therefore, I hope that the Duke will accept the gift as an uninvited gift, and the sincerity of looking forward to getting acquainted with Ling Lang. ”

Hear these explanations.

Duke Robert nodded, and suddenly understood.

In this era, due to the lack of information development, it is very normal and common for practitioners to communicate with each other, learn from each other's strengths, and learn from each other's strengths.

Robert was not opposed to this kind of exchange and exchange, because he often did it when he was younger, and many people often came to him to learn from him.

He wasn't worried about the strange man in front of him, on the surface, he was exchanging ideas, but in fact, he was kicking the gym to defeat his son and sweep away the face of his son Salosa's "number one in the kingdom".

If his son loses, it is just to suppress his sharpness, let him know that there is a sky outside the sky, and don't get too carried away.

If his son wins, then continue to publicize it to the outside world and increase the gold content of his "kingdom first".

But I don't know why, Robert actually has a little hope in his heart that someone can appear and defeat his son...... Because since the boy became an adult, he has become more and more rebellious, and he has become more and more disobedient to him, and often goes his own way, going out to hunt for ten days and half a month, and he has completely disobeyed many of his arrangements, and criticizes a few words, and always talks back to him, saying that he is "old" and "don't care about me anymore".

So come to mind.

Duke Robert gently put the gilded pocket watch in his pocket, and the "short-barreled firearm" and "multi-purpose saber" were also put away.

And he commanded the steward:

"Butler, arrange a set of the best guest rooms, arrange the most clever servants to serve, and when the distinguished guests come, you must respond to your needs, and you must not neglect in the slightest!"

"Yes, sir!"

The butler said respectfully.
