"No, I'm too embarrassed—after my father's death, their allegiance has ended, and it would be rude and greedy to continue to demand. Sinclair bowed slightly, "If you have the chance, please convey my apologies to Abel and them." ”

These words made Richard stunned, and his anger suddenly disappeared.

Be able to empathize with the difficulties of others, not just ask for too much. can put down the figure of a member of the royal family, instead of annoying people with a shelf.

This is not something that the average thirteen-year-old would understand.

The room was quiet for a while, and several people were thinking about things.

"Lord Richard. Sinclair broke the silence, "While I may indeed be in big trouble, if I can be allowed to stay in Alpine Castle, there will be quite a few practical benefits for you. ”

"Oh, forgive me for being a bit of a philistine, but as a lord, I have to be responsible for tens of thousands of people, and I can't afford to be rash. Richard rubbed his chin and looked playful, "Please Your Highness, you might as well talk about it first, so that I can judge." ”

"There are vassals who were once loyal to their father, and would rather leave the kingdom and live in the wilderness than be loyal to the usurper. Sinclair took a deep breath, his soot-stained face full of seriousness, "As a father's child, I can command them to turn allegiance to you. ”

Richard's hand rubbing his chin froze.

"I vouch for the truth of what Sinclel said. Dupon also added in due course.

Under the cover of a calm face, his brain began to work - since it is a vassal clan of the king, and it is a top strong race in ten times, Li senses that there should be no problem with this logic.

Even if he were to be the king, he would definitely have to bring the most powerful fighting race under his command. Human nature is the same, and I don't believe that the old king Reinhardt can be more selfless.

Being able to absorb powerful warriors is undoubtedly very attractive for Alpine Fort.

And when they settle down and settle down, integration into the mountain fort will inevitably become the general trend, and it is unlikely that they will want to set off any waves.

Because loyalty is a thing that can often withstand the test of suffering, but it often can't withstand the corrosion of comfort. This is evident in the Shire warriors, who are now very proud of their status as Alpine Castles.

"But I don't understand. Richard's face was clearly full of entanglement and hesitation, and he asked directly, "What good is this for your restoration cause, forgive me for not seeing it." ”

"My father said many years ago that Filip is very politically sophisticated, and I am probably no match for him. ”

Dupon patted Sinclair on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "Child, you are still young, there will always be a day when you grow up." ”

It's a pale consolation, because everyone knows that opponents in power struggles don't care if you're young or young.

"If I can't regain the throne for the time being, I hope to at least give my loyal vassals a reward. And the mountain fort is very rich, so that they can get out of the embarrassing life they are in now, and they will not be displaced. Sinclell's shoulders trembled a little, and he tried to suppress his emotions.

For a pampered former royal family, the feeling of powerlessness is painful in itself.

"It's young, but it's very well thought out. "Richard was a little impressed. At the same age of thirteen, he was still figuring out how to skip class.

It's a clever approach: instead of leaving vassals to suffer in the wilderness, test how strong their loyalty is.

It is better to pull to the high mountain fort and sit on the top of the mountain, although the fence is sent, but from now on you can catch the express train of development, and the future is bright.

"Grandpon Du Pong and I left them a communication magic stone before leaving, and it was very convenient to communicate. If you need it, you can get it in as fast as two days. ”

"Happy cooperation, Your Royal Highness. Richard held out his palm.

"Ahem, Richard, the princess, to be exact. Dupon winked twice, "Sinclair is a girl. ”

The lord looked at the dark face and was a little dumbfounded.

............

A small oolong makes the atmosphere more harmonious.

The maids helped the princess, who was already having lice in her hair, to wash, and only the lord and the master Dupon were left in the living room.

"Old man, you're so embarrassed to trouble me. Richard said through gritted teeth.

"With our relationship, what's wrong with each other. "This fat old man is very arrogant

"Oh, too!" Lord Lord nodded viciously, and then asked mysteriously, "Master, what kind of alchemy equipment did you say could be made from the elemental crystals condensed by the Fire Demon after his death?"

"Elemental crystals?" Dupon didn't take it seriously, thinking that Richard was just curious, "It depends on the specific crystallization and your needs." To tell you the truth, I'm still a bit skilled in alchemy, so if you can get the elemental crystals, just come to me. ”

He himself was purely casually writing empty checks, perfunctory to Richard.

Top Demonic Beasts have a chance to condense crystals after death, but the Fire Demon is particularly rare.

Because the Fire Demon itself is a rare magical beast, and with that super high rank, it may not be able to be defeated if it can be found, and it may not be able to be killed.

Even if they can find it, they can fight it, and they can kill it, but the corpses still don't necessarily condense into fire elemental crystals. It's so rare that the entire human world hasn't seen this material for hundreds of years, and it should have been a very safe promise.

"Then look at me. ”

So Du Pong watched as Richard took out the space ring pendant from his neckline, and there was an extra fist-sized crystal on his hand out of thin air.

The color was like a burning flame, and the colorful light refracted and jumped in it. If you look closely, your eyes seem to be caught in a sea of crimson, and there is no end to it, only a piece of almost unreal magnificence.

And between this unreal magnificence and the real enough world, countless red particles of light are born and destroyed like waves.

This appearance alone can't be faked!

It was true that Richard couldn't deal with the resentful ghost that was reincarnated for the last time, but the fire demon's body was covered by him. And fortunately, it just happened to condense a piece of elemental crystal.

"Hiss~" Even if he is as well-informed as Master Dupont, he can't help but stand up on the spot, "I'll take a look." ”

He held the crystal and almost stuck it to it, jealousy made his originally kind face look very distorted, "This flame demon must have been much more powerful than its kind in his lifetime, and he actually cultivated the earth element!

"Master, remember your promise, I'll give it to you. Richard collapsed in his chair and smiled slyly like a fox.

"You're so embarrassed to trouble me. Du Pong grabbed Bai Dao unceremoniously.

To make high-level alchemy equipment, materials are of course the ultimate part, but it is also a very exhausting job for alchemists.

"With our relationship, what's wrong with each other. Richard returned the word.
