Since Salosa had not yet returned from a long hunting trip, Atalam waited for three days in the Duke's Palace.

During these three days, Atran, who had nothing to do, walked around the Duke's palace twice at will.

But I found a very strange phenomenon.

Judging by the increasing number of soldiers and horses in the training ground in the backyard of the Duke's Palace: Recently, the Duke's Palace has been recruiting troops.

What do you do when you are recruiting?

The curious Atran, eavesdropping on the conversation between the two high-ranking generals, often hears the word "gold".

Gold of the Oruña Empire.

"The Starwind Kingdom's expedition plan, Duke Robert also wants to participate, and he also wants to go to the Orunian Empire to make a big profit?"

Atran speculated, but vaguely felt that it might not be that simple.

Because if you want to go to the Orunian Empire to plunder gold, you can recruit troops with great fanfare, anyway, many nobles have been doing this recently, but Duke Robert is very low-key and quiet, giving people the feeling that he is secretly recruiting troops.

Attram also had two dinners with Duke Robert, at which Atran wanted to ask Duke Robert, but after thinking about it, he gave up on this plan...... After all, Duke Robert in front of him is a ruthless lord.

Day 4.

"The young master is back!"

"The young master is back!"

In the cries of the subordinates.

Salosa, who had gone hunting in other places, finally returned with a full load of prey, and under the guard of a group of retinues, he showed off his might.

Seeing his mother, Mrs. Shelley, who greeted her at the door, Salosa jumped off her horse and said excitedly:

"Mom, this time I came back from hunting a lot of prey, and I came back with a full load!"

Mrs. Shelley stepped forward and took his hand and said, "Son, it has been more than half a month since you left this time, and the beasts in the forest are dangerous, so don't go hunting every day, and spend more time with your wife Julie." ”

Hearing these nagging words, Salosa's face fell, and she complained, "Mom, can you stop nagging? Didn't Julie already give birth to a boy for our family, why do you always ask me to accompany her?"

"Let you accompany her to have a few more children! With such a big family business, how can a boy be enough?"

"Okay, okay, don't say it again, I'm annoyed by you!"

Salosa shook her hand, ignoring her mother.

"You bastard boy, you're not interested in taking care of your territory, you're not interested in women, you're interested in hunting all day long, and you're not going to be with your prey in the future?

Duke Robert came over and reprimanded his son.

"You old thing, I told you to leave me alone!

Salosa slammed it over.

"Where did you grow up? You might as well be obedient as a teenager, and the older you get, the less obedient you become!"

"That's because I couldn't beat you then, but now I can! I'm with bigger fists than you! Why do you care about me?"

Salosa raised his fist and roared.

"You...... You...... Boy, how dare you talk to you like this, I'm ...... I'll kill you!" Robert was about to explode, and his hand was directly on the matching sword at his waist, and he wanted to draw the sword and teach this disobedient boy a lesson!

"Odd, unload all the prey from the wagon, and we will continue to hunt. ”

Salosa, however, did not shake off his father, and turned to his attendant beside him.

"Young master, this ......" Aode's entourage looked embarrassed, and he was about to leave as soon as he came back, this ......

"You kid, I'll abolish you!"

Robert was even more angry, now he really wanted to draw his sword and teach this unspoken son a good lesson.

However, the sword is halfway drawn.

A hand held him down.

A voice came from his ear: "Lord Duke, it's normal for men to like hunting adventures, why hurt the harmony between father and son?"

"But this bastard boy goes out hunting every day and doesn't do anything serious!"

As if he had found an outlet, in front of Atranham, an outsider, Duke Robert couldn't help but complain and confide.

Atran smiled awkwardly: "When I was in my twenties, my father often said this about me, and in a fit of anger, I became an adventurer, and I wandered outside for twenty years, and I still dare not go home, I am afraid that my father will kill me." What he said was not made up, but it was true, and he had also considered finding a suitable time to go back to his hometown.

"This ......"

Duke Robert froze, realizing that he had found the wrong person to talk to.

"So my advice to me is that between restricting hunting and my son, it's better to have my son. Atran said.

Mrs. Shelley, who was next to her, panicked, pulled Duke Robert and said, "My dear, let my son go if he likes to hunt, don't talk about him anymore!"

Duke Robert's anger suddenly subsided by more than half, he is such a son, if he scolds and runs away, what should he do?

So he didn't dare to scold anymore, withdrew his sword, and glared at his son.

Salosha's attention was completely shifted to Atran's.

"Hey, who are you, why are you in my house?" Salosa became intrigued by the adventurer who claimed to have been out there for twenty years.

Seeing a hand-shaped badge pinned to his chest on the green robe he was wearing, Salosa was surprised: "You are also a Demon Net Walker, and you are also a member of the guild?"

"Yes, Master Salosa, my name is Atram, and I am a Demon Netwalker from the Main Continent, and an adventurer who has been wandering for many years. ”

"I came to Domiwaga this time to carry out a special mission, but also to make more friends and get to know more about the environment. ”

Atran reported his home.

The main continent?

Adventurer?

Special mission?

These words suddenly had a huge attraction for Salosha.

Salosa became very interested in the strange figure in front of him, who was somewhat similar to him.

He walked over, grabbed Atran by the sleeve, and dragged him into the Duke's Palace:

"Friends from afar, I welcome you very much, I am very interested in the main continent and your adventures, can you tell me the story of your adventures outside?"

"With pleasure, Master Salosha. ”

Very good start.

In a very short period of time when they first met, Atran established a good impression in the heart of his target, Salosha, and became a good friend.

In the next three days, the relationship between the two grew by leaps and bounds, even to the level of "good friends" who ate together, slept together, and played together.

Especially after learning that Atram was 10 years older than herself, Salosa often called her "brother", which was very affectionate.

And during these three days, Atalam basically told Salosa all the interesting aspects of the humanistic customs of the main continent, his adventure stories of 20 years outside, and he was fascinated by it, exclaiming from time to time, and his eyes were full of longing.

Also often ask Atran questions like:

"Brother, I'm almost thirty years old, and it's boring to go out hunting every day, can I go to the outside world to adventure like you?"

"Uh......"

Atran thought for a moment and said, "Age is not a problem, as long as your body is energetic enough, you can go out on adventures at the age of forty or fifty, but ...... You're not in a different situation than I am, you have to love your parents, you have a wife and a son, you can't just walk away, that would hurt them deeply. ”

"But this kind of life is not what I want! I can't live like this in my life!"

"But the outside world is dangerous, you don't have enough power, and in the face of all kinds of dangers, you may never come back. ”

"I'm not afraid, I'm a level 4 magic network walker, I'm 'number one in the kingdom', no one is my opponent, I have the confidence to deal with all kinds of challenges!"

"Hehe, number one in the kingdom?"

Atranmu smiled mockingly, shook his head and said, "Brother, I don't want to hit you, there are many of them outside like you, and most of them have been taught a bad lesson." ”

"Brother, are you underestimating me?"

Salosa's expression became very serious, and he said solemnly: "I want to challenge you, I want to defeat you!

"Okay, I also want you to see what it means to have people outside the world and a sky outside the sky. ”

A competition between the two was settled.
