Chapter 250: Too Familiar

Can a noble castle be so simple......

Add sighed as he looked left and right inside the house;

If you count the castles of the other nobles—well, even the ones that Maple Town can barely call castles—they are like cakes decorated with different patterns;

But the castle here looks like a big chunk...... Cake crusts.

It's certainly not a mistake to say it's not cake, but it feels like there's so much missing.

The escort and the two men walked on the slightly uneven stone ground, somewhat awkwardly—but fortunately they didn't slip, and they had to be careful when walking due to the lack of light;

It's like a large stone dwelling...... Eddie thought to himself;

Since there is no provision for the decoration of the castle in the content that the nobles need to observe, is there no decoration......?

Such a principled person should have a fair time if he can convince him with good reasons;

...... But on the contrary, there will be no possibility.

You have to solve the problem in as short a sentence as possible.

"Here we are, here it is. ”

While Eddie was still thinking about the plan, the guard who was leading the two of them forward suddenly stopped.

It was a single wooden door that looked the same as the rest of the room;

If it weren't for the finger-sized label next to the handle that read "Viscount Darkcloud" on it, Eddie would have thought he was going to make the two of them wait in the reception room for a while.

The guard knocked on the door, and an almost emotionless voice came from inside:

"Enter. ”

The guard then opened the door, and then looked at Eddie with an almost playful gaze;

...... I guess I think I'll be sent out soon, right?

Tsk, even if it doesn't work out this time, you have to find a way to get enough information from him - to pave the way for next time!

Thinking so, Eddie stepped in;

The middle-aged man working across the table reluctantly put down the pen in his hand;

As Jasper had described before, he was a man who was quite difficult to communicate with at first glance, there was not much positive emotion on that face, the muscles of his face seemed to be locked in place, and only from the slight frown could tell that he was not in a good mood at the moment;

There was still a bit of discarded paper in the trash can on the other side, which might be the reason why he was in a bad mood?

There were no traces of the nobility in the clothes he was wearing—the materials were very ordinary, and it was estimated that even if he found a well-run vendor, he would be able to take out ten or eight pieces of clothes that were better than those he was wearing in his closet......

Coupled with this unpretentious and almost shabby layout, Eddie felt that the atmosphere was not ordinary and difficult to deal with;

Eddie looked at Viscount Darkcloud as fast as he could, preparing the lines he was going to say later - it was already prepared on the way, but it was clear that some of the content could not be used at this time;

So......

Add was about to say "Hello" when he suddenly got stuck.

...... He saw a pendant hanging from Viscount Darkcloud's chest;

I haven't seen it for a while, but the pattern on that pendant is too reassuring;

a pendant with sun lines, a symbol of the royal family;

With this pendant, it's generally just-

Loyal Servants.

It's still the kind of ...... full of loyalty!

Add calmed his excited breathing and prepared to speak—

"You're the adventurer who saved the docks, aren't you? Dark Cloud opened his mouth first, "For the sake of your great achievements, I will forgive you for this rude gaze, but I hope that what you say next can have some value, otherwise it will ......"

Add knew that the dark cloud was going to be ready to send off the guests.

But it's still ...... Need to test it again.

"Ah, before I get down to business, I want to ask you one thing. Add's gaze rested on the pendant that Darkcloud was carrying, "You take this object with you...... Aren't you afraid that other people will make trouble for you?"

"Looking for trouble, I think you're asking for trouble!" Dark Cloud snapped up, "Since you know the meaning of this pendant, you should know what it means to every nobleman! If the nobles can't even maintain their loyalty, then what glory is there!"

Eddie's words clearly angered him, and his expression was much more active than before.

"A profit-seeking person like you has nothing to say about it!" said Dark Cloud, looking out the door: "Guard, quickly drag this man out for me, whip him ten lashes, and then let him roll as far as he goes!"

This...... Are you so excited?

"Wait a minute!" Eddie waved his hand, "I do have something extremely important to explain to you!

"What are you waiting for?" Darkcloud didn't mean to bother with Eddie, "Why don't you hurry up!?"

Obviously, compared to Eddie's justification, the deterrence of the nobles is more effective at this time;

Two guards walked in, intending to drag Eddie out directly—

Alas, although there is a plan for this situation, it is more wasteful after all......

Thinking so, Eddie directly threw out the two magic balls;

A directional wind pushed the two guards out of the room, then closed the door tightly;

Then, Add throws out a magic ball that seals the wooden door - for a long time, unless the door is removed, it is absolutely impossible to break through the door, which is better than a lock;

Eventually, Add activates a soundproof magic ball - so that everything that happens in the room is no longer audible outside;

I should be able to talk about it now, right?" thought to Eddie a little helplessly;

But apparently not.

"You...... Is it an assassin?" Darkcloud pulled out the sword at his waist, "There are still people in this city who want to attack me...... Or are you an assassin sent by the regent? Either way, my life is not so ......."

Darkcloud was halfway through when Eddie slapped him back to his seat with another wind orb;

"Can't you just listen to what people have to say?" Eddie's strength calmed down a little;

“...... What is there to say? I will never betray my loyalty and my glory. Dark Cloud stared at Add, "If that's what you think, I advise you not to waste your efforts!"

He's not really serious. Add thought so and let out a long sigh of helplessness;

"It seems that language is no longer the solution. Add shrugged his shoulders and turned around, then tugged at the back of his shirt;

The dark cloud, who had been shouting and shouting and killing just now, was stunned for a moment—it seemed that it would take him some time to comprehend what he had seen, which was almost impossible;

Phew, it's good that there's no one else in this room, Eddie thought;

Otherwise, I'll have to throw a few more magic balls.
