Brother 10: Soto City

The convoy finally walked out of the Luohui grassland, although the face of several days of continuous running looked tired but full of energy, everyone was obviously very happy to come out of the Luohui grassland.

"Young master, young master," Belita shouted on horseback.

"Young master, there is a manor in front, we have already gone to see it, it is very empty, there are enough for so many of us to live, we have already discussed with them, the people in the manor will provide us with hot water and food, we have to pay 50 gold coins"

"Okay, then hurry up, you can have a good rest tonight" Xius was also happy when he heard that there was a manor, this half a month of carriage life was really enough.

Belita also told the news to a convoy of people, and the whole convoy quickly headed towards the manor.

"Come, come, drink, drink" The huge open space of the entire manor was filled with all kinds of food and drink, and a few game meat were roasted in the middle, and the soldiers, who had been tense and nervous, finally relaxed completely at this moment.

Hughes and Count Clay sat at the table, and several maids around them kept adding food to the silver plate.

"Father, shall we go to the test when we arrive in Soto City?" asked Count Clay when he was almost finished.

"Of course not, it's not so fast, we're going to visit the Erling family tomorrow," Count Clay said, putting down his knife and fork and looking at Theseus.

"Elin, Father, is there any connection between the Erling family and our Bruch family?"

"Hahaha! It has nothing to do with our Bruch family, but it has a lot to do with me, we were on the battlefield together, and we fought together for the title, and I have a very good relationship, but it is so far away, there is less contact, you also saw me as an old friend when you were a child" Count Clay recalled the past, and a smile appeared on his face.

Hughes racked his brains and didn't think of anything about the Erling family, and it was estimated that it had been too long.

"We went to Soto City this time, and he also knew that his own pair of children would probably also take the test with you, so you can get to know each other and get acquainted with each other at that time."

"Yes, father," said Hughes, bowing to Count Clay, and then turned back to his room.

"Chip! List my body data"

"Drop!Hugh Bruch, Strength: 3.6, Agility: 4.0, Fitness: 4.0, Mental Power: 2.5, Status: Health"

Theseus lay on the bed and looked at his attribute panel in deep thought.

It was about to arrive in Soto City, and the day of the test was not far away, and Theseus looked at his mental power attributes.

"I don't know how the wizard's test is conducted, if it's really related to spiritual power as the chip said, then this 2.5 spiritual power should be able to pass."

The carriages were walking on the muddy road, and it was the Hughes and his party, who had breakfast at the manor and started on the road, and it rained lightly during the night, and the road was a little difficult to walk, but it didn't affect much.

After the rain, it was much cooler, and the air was much fresher, and Theseus sat on the roof of the carriage and looked at everything around him.

The closer to Soto City there are more and more places to live, and the convoy has seen many people along the way, and some even asked the convoy if the merchant wants to change something, of course, they are all sent away by Belita.

In the evening, the carriages slowly drove into the city of Soto, and the guards who defended the city saw that Count Clay only symbolically looked at the carriage and paid a few silver coins before letting him enter the city.

The carriage walked along the wide street, attracting the surrounding passers-by to look curiously at the convoy.

Xius was also looking at the city of Sotho, which was much larger than the county of Earldom of Clay, and there were many shops to see, many taverns, inns, and a concert hall, and in Hughes's opinion, this was a place where nobles should live.

"How about Theseus, is it much better than where we are" Count Clay did not know when he walked up to Theseus

"Father, this place is really different from us."

"Yes, close to the coast, there are passing merchant ships that stop here every year, and there is more to it than elsewhere," was about to speak Count Clay, when he was interrupted by a hurried Belita.

"Lord Earl, I have already inquired about the territory of the Erling family."

"Okay, you take the lead and go to the territory of the Erling family now"

"Yes, Lord Count," Belita led the convoy in the direction of the Erling family.

"Hey, hey, you see, these people are all from out of town."

"No, you see that this posture should also be a nobleman."

"Who knows, anyway, we've had a lot of nobles in Soto City recently, and I don't know what to do."

"It seems that there are quite a few people who have come to take the test this time," Hughes thought to himself when he heard the words coming from the street.

The carriage soon came to a magnificent castle, and in the distance forgotten, there were already people standing at the castle waiting.

"Hey, Clay, you're finally here, I've been waiting for a long time, I've heard that someone has inquired about the territory of the Erling family, and I guess you've arrived," a man in a gorgeous gown greeted Count Clay warmly.

"Haha, it's been a long time since I've seen Ullot, so many years," Count Clay not only sighed.

"Yes, I'll introduce you," the Count of Ulotte pulled Count Clay aside, two blonde haired men and a woman, both of whom looked about the same age as Hughes.

"Come, this is the Count of Clay that I have been telling you about," Ullot said to the two.

"Hello Uncle Clay," a man and a woman gave a standard aristocratic salute to Count Clay.

"Okay, well, I've prepared a greeting gift for you, and I'll have it brought to you in a moment," said Count Clay, very pleased.

"This is my son Pols, and this is my daughter Leah, how about it?" Count Ulott looked at Count Clay with some smugness.

"Uncle Ulot!" Hughes bowed to Ulot.

"Hey, you're Hughes, have you grown so big, I'll hug you in the future," Count Ulote was surprised to see Hughes.

"How can he remember, how long has it been, I'm here, and you're going to let me stand?" said Count Clay, joking at Ulot.

"Forget it, come on, come in, Pols, you take the convoy and arrange it, take care of it," said Ullotra and Count Clay and entered the castle, and Count Ullot really felt that this Count Ullot was indeed not in a good relationship with his father.

Walking into the castle hall, the maids who came and went kept placing exquisite food on the table.

"Come, tired, dine first," Count Ulott greeted Theseus and Count Clay warmly.

There were very few people at the table, except for Ulott and his sons and daughters, as well as Theseus and Count Clay.

The atmosphere was very harmonious throughout the meal, and Ulott kept talking about some interesting things that happened with Count Clay back then, which caused Count Clay to laugh.

Hughes, Pols, and Leah couldn't say a word, so they could only listen honestly from the side.

The whole man had almost eaten, and with a wave of his hand, Count Ullot sent all the servants in the hall out.

"The wizards who came to test you this time are estimated to be on the Dead Coast in three days, they haven't accepted apprentices for decades, so there won't be too few people who come to test this time, I'm sure you should have heard about it when you came" Ulott looked at Count Clay and Xiu.

Count Clay nodded, "Indeed, I did hear a lot of news about nobles coming to this place along the way."

"Therefore, you are very competitive, and you must take care of your spirits in the past two days, go to bed early every day, rest well, and don't overwork, let alone cause trouble," Count Ulot instructed one by one.

Hearing what Count Ulot said, his eyes flashed, and he felt that Count Ulot must know something, otherwise he wouldn't have said these things.

Count Clay also took out a gift for Bols and Leah, Bols was a dagger, overflowing with cold light, which made people doubt its sharpness, and Leah's was a brooch, very delicate, inlaid with brilliant gems, and there were many unknown feather decorations around the edge, which Leah rarely liked.

"Thank you, Uncle Clay," Bols and Leah thanked Count Clay.

Looking at the expressions on the faces of the two people when they received the gifts, Count Clay knew that they liked it very much, "No thanks, it's not a good thing, it's good to like it, it's good to like it"

"I said, little Xius, don't be envious, wait for tomorrow, I'll send you a better one" Count Ulott suddenly patted Xius, startling Xius.

Xius listened to Ulot's words, and kept thinking about things in his head, and in Ulot's eyes, he thought that Xius was envious, so he patted Xius, "Thank you, Uncle Ulot", and Xius could only thank him when he saw this.

It was late in the day, and then Ulot had Count Clay and Theseus take to their respective rooms.

The room was carefully prepared at first glance, and everything inside was completely new, and although it was the first time to visit Soto City, it was a feeling that Theseus rarely liked.
