"Humph! We have seen your efforts to eradicate bandits and reduce taxes, Lord Earl, but in my opinion, these alone are not enough to make the people of your realm trust you. With all due respect, you have not been given full command of the armies in your territory, and in some places they have even colluded with local thieves to prey on the merchants and the common people; As for taxes, you have reduced them, but have some people really exempted them from the people? I'm afraid that the situation will only get worse. "Lear. Jerami shrugged his shoulders, a look of disdain in his eyes.

Interesting, it seems that he is still an angry young man.

Hathaway was amused, this guy was a noble kid himself, although his father's title could not be hereditary, but it was no problem to be a lord in the future, but he was extremely prejudiced and a little cynical.

"Presumptuous!"

Aaron. Jerami was furious, and after scolding, he motioned for his son to leave immediately. Jeramy also glanced at Hathaway nonchalantly, then turned and walked away.

"Mr. Jerami is a very interesting person." Hathaway smiled, her gaze on Lear. Jeramy's back swept red,

"Reckless, ignorant, don't be surprised, Lord Earl." Aaron. Jerami smiled.

Seeing Hathaway's gaze, he was a little worried. Aaron. Jerami didn't want his son to have anything to do with Hathaway, and he didn't want Hathaway to hate his son because of what had just happened. In any case, Hathaway was an earl, a lord. She probably won't be able to deal with Solo. Bell's kind of person, but for an ordinary person like his son, it is still more than enough.

"Can I understand that? reckless, representing blood and passion; is not sensible, which means that he has not been corrupted by the dark side of society. Your Excellency, Lear is not in public office yet, is he? Hathaway asked.

"Lord Count, the situation on the Cordillera today is not a one-day affair, and it is not just courage to stir up this stagnant water. If you entrust the management of your territory to the Bell family or the Camille family, you will be satisfied with the annual income. Otherwise, some people are not willing to be lonely. "Aaron. Jerami said thoughtfully.

Hathaway smiled. Aaron. Jerami is not necessarily a lobbyist for any force. He is indeed old and steady, and does not want to stir up trouble in the Cordillera Plateau. But that wasn't the answer Hathaway wanted, and it wasn't the life she wanted.

"Your Excellency. You think they can really govern the territory. Or is it because of being content with the status quo? As you say. You have been on this land for 30 years, and I believe you love this land very much, do you really think that the current situation is what you want? What are you striving for? As for those you think are not willing to be lonely...... Hehe. Since I left the Kaha Magic Academy, there have always been people who have been unwilling, but I am still standing here alive. Hathaway had a sneering smile on her face, but her eyes had become cold, like a knife brushing over the baron's face. In this instant, Aaron. Jerami had a trance-like sensation, like a cold blade brushing over his cheeks. For a while, he didn't know how to answer the other party's words, so he could only respond by remaining silent.

"Your Excellency, what do you think of that meadow?" Hathaway suddenly pointed to a green meadow more than ten meters away.

Ignoring Hathaway's meaning, Aaron. Jeramie was stunned for a moment, and followed Hathaway's gaze, "Oh, this is a clover that is a specialty of the Cordillera Plateau, and it is very suitable for lawns, and it seems that Baron Bell's gardener is not lazy and is neatly trimmed." ”

"Really?"

Hathaway had a strange smile on her face and raised her hand to point, "Why do I think it's like a magma pool?" ”

"Huh?" Aaron. Jerami was stunned.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a fiery breath appear in the air. When Jerami was surprised, the meadow that Hathaway was referring to suddenly burst into flames, and then the ground in a radius of acres turned into rolling magma, like a small magma lake, although he was more than a hundred meters away, he still felt the heat wave.

Aaron. Jerami was stunned for a moment, and he was speechless on the spot.

What is it?

Magic or illusion?

His Excellency, who rubbed his eyes, looked at this scene in his eyes, and could not believe it, if it were not for the burning sensation on his skin that reminded him, His Excellency would have thought that he was watching a magic show in a dream.

The drastic change in the ambient temperature alarmed the small animals in the forest, and some birds flew up the high branches and chirped uneasily. A fat gray rabbit swooped past the two of them, and Hathaway raised her hand again...... An extremely cold aura suddenly appeared, and Aaron. Jerami was freezing and almost screaming, and the rabbit had fallen to the ground.

Aaron. Jerami stepped forward and bent down to pick up the rabbit...... Entering the cold, it turned out that it had been completely frozen, and there was a thin layer of cold ice on the surface.

He gasped, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble, this is simply unbelievable, he just performed fire magic, and then quickly cast ice magic, this kind of casting speed and power is definitely Aaron. Jerami couldn't have imagined. Although he is a good financial officer, he is not ignorant of magic...... At least he knew what an elemental mage was, how rare a dual elemental mage was, and he also knew that at least that fire magic was not a first-level magic.

Huge shock made Aaron. Jeramy stood silent, his mind even paused, he couldn't understand how a young girl like Hathaway could become such a powerful magician.

Clapping her hands easily, Hathaway smiled and turned to the baron: "How's it going?" Your Excellency doesn't think we've flown into the Cordillera Plateau, do you? There are a lot of new things we have encountered along the way, and they have also made me gain a lot of knowledge, so I don't need to say more about the rest. ”

Hathaway was assassinated and robbed many times, and all the forces of the Cordillera knew what was going on, and they could even tell who was doing it. For a long time, most of them thought that Hathaway would be safe and sound, and that she would have a good guard by her side, but now it seems that the facts and conjectures are very much true.

In the Cordillera system, there are quite a few people who don't like Solo. Bell and Linnan. Camille these two people. Because in their eyes, these two people are like greedy fishermen, who take a vote in the Cordillera Plateau and leave, but fortunately they were not given an abundant environment, otherwise they would have dug up a piece of the Cordillera land in the past ten years. Hathaway's appearance seems to be a turning point. Although they did not discriminate against Hathaway's gender, her age was a big limitation that raised doubts about her strength and abilities. However, after Hathaway became lord, she quickly eliminated several major bands of thieves and reduced taxes with thunderous means...... This series of initiatives, at least in the eyes of merchants and commoners, affirmed the lord's ability and character. However, the two families have been operating in the Cordillera Heights for many years, and people are still very skeptical about Hathaway's ability to fight these two families.

But today, Hathaway gave Aaron. Jeramy's astonishing answer, he didn't expect that the Lord Earl standing in front of him was actually a powerful magician, whether he could be called a great magician He didn't know, but Hathaway's performance level definitely exceeded that of ordinary low-level magicians, let alone ordinary magic apprentices who could be seen. Hathaway's smile in Aaron. Jeramy's eyes even turned into a little devil's smile, which made people shudder.

Aaron, who has been silent for a long time. Jerami seemed to be thinking about some difficult issues to make a decision, and Hathaway became quite patient at this point...... She also knew that for now, she was just showing that she had the background to confront the Bell family and the Camille family, but she couldn't really resist it, it wasn't necessarily. I can only say that my cousin has given those centrists a very tempting choice.

"My lord, I would like to know your future plans for our Cordillera Lord, although you have shown extraordinary strength, but the problems of the Cordillera Territory cannot be solved only by force, let alone by the strength of one person. If you can come up with a good and reasonable plan, I think it will be easier for you to win the support of the people in your territory. Of course, before that, I think it would be best if the inhabitants of the realm, including me, could see that the lord could live safely in the castle of Perseus. ”

Aaron. Jerami's raised head regained confidence and humility, but the meaning of his words was unmistakable, and if he wanted to win the respect and support of the inhabitants of the realm, Perseus's castle as a lord's castle was an unavoidable problem.

"Your Excellency's words are very reasonable, it seems that we can still find a common language, because we have a common goal, and that is to make the Cordillera tomorrow better. As for your construction, I will consider that the castle of Perseus is my castle, and it is the status symbol of the lord of the Cordillera, and I believe that it will not be long before I will hold a cocktail party there for you. ”

Hathaway's impeccable aristocratic style made her even more elegant and charming, and the warm smile on her face was so bright that even Aaron. For a moment, Jerami couldn't connect her with the person who had just cast her magic at will, and this difference in identity and vision made a trace of worry secretly rise in his already quiet heart.
