Chapter 34: The history books leave the name Charles
When the moon was in the middle of the sky, Charles dragged his tired body back to the hotel with Halcara and Donio.
Originally, he thought that he could use himself as bait today to catch the fish of human traffickers, but he met the Pope.
When he returned to his room, he found Diana lying on the bed, looking sullen.
Charles walked over and asked, "What's wrong, what's upset?"
Diana shook her head, then pointed to her chest, "I'm in a bad mood, it hurts here." ”
Someone asked, "Why don't you rub it for you?"
Diana didn't reply, but looked at someone with a look of "if you have the ability, you can try".
So Charles held out his right hand to Diana.
"Wow!" Diana jumped up clutching her chest.
"You're badly beaten!" she yelled at Charles with the slime ice cream in a thin wooden box that Charles had thrown from the storage ring onto her chest.
Charles handed Diana a small piece of wood to use as a spoon, sat down next to her with his share of slime ice cream, and asked, "What's upset?"
Diana took the piece of wood and sighed, "How can a feudal ruling class like you understand the sorrow of us ruled commoners?"
Diana came through the flesh, and after coming over, her body became a pure baby and a child of two or three years old. It was Professor Wolfe, who was traveling, who discovered and adopted her. Therefore, Diana has a name in this world, but she is not a nobleman but a commoner, so she does not have a surname.
There is nothing Charles can do about this kind of problem involving social rules, and he can't do it alone now.
He could only comfort Diana, "There will be a way in the future." ”
Diana glared at Charles angrily, and the way he said was to find a nobleman to marry.
"The Great Prayer for the Forge Temple begins on the 30th, so let's go and be a guest of honor. Charles changed the subject and invited Diana to go with him.
"How do you get a spot?" Diana looked at Charles incredulously, "Professor Wolf was going to get a spot, but he didn't get it." ”
Charles took a bite of ice cream, and the faint scent of osmanthus filled his mouth.
"I helped solve a problem today, so the Pope gave me the go-ahead to bring someone as a guest. And this ice cream was also delivered by him. Charles replied as he ate.
"Oh?" said Diana, "tell me how you perform?"
"I didn't act. "It just accidentally gave them a little inspiration and allowed them to solve a lot of problems." ”
Charles then told Diana about what had happened today, and what a group of dwarves had discussed later.
"What other benefits do you have? For example, get to know the Holy Maiden of the Forging Temple or something, and then follow the process to have something happen to the Holy Maiden. Diana looked at Charles with a funny expression.
Charles's face darkened as he spoke, "My shoulder blades were almost cracked by her casserole-sized fist." ”
"And then?" asked Diana.
Charles's face was darker now, "and later she proposed to name the rebar Charles." ”
Diana was stunned for half a minute, then patted Charles on the shoulder and said, "Youzai, you can, now you are famous in history." At least anyone who studies architecture in the future will remember your name. ”
But Charles didn't look happy, he whispered to Diana: "You should also know that this world is very strange, and a lot of technology has been suppressed. I don't know if reinforced concrete will be locked up like papermaking. ”
"It's not as simple as you think. Diana tossed the empty ice cream box into the bin at the bedside, "This time I walked from east to west and from south to north and found that the world was locked up. ”
"The class solidification in this world is more serious than you think, and the upward passage between classes is like a person crossing a single-plank bridge in the Spring Festival, but it gives you a way to cross the bridge. ”
"I don't want to talk about the technical stuff. War can drive the development of technology, but the war here has been going on for thousands of years, and the development of technology has been fluctuating around the same average level. "of
"Alas......" Charles sighed, he had been bitter about it.
"You were in a bad mood about this?" he asked.
"It's not. Diana shifted her position away from Charles, "I heard someone gossiping about me behind my back while I was having dinner. ”
Charles's tone became serious, and now the people in the inn were all caravan people, "Who is it?" next time I drink soup, I will not put two more handfuls of salt to salt him." ”
"Forget it, I don't want you to be difficult. Diana said.
"What did they say about you?" asked Charles.
Diana hesitated for a moment, then said, "Some people say that I shamelessly seduced you in order to become a countess. Say that I am just a commoner, it is impossible to be a noble lady, I can only be a lover, if you marry me, even my children and grandchildren will be ridiculed. ”
The corners of Charles's mouth twitched, it seems that there are people in every world who love to chew the root of their tongues. It is inevitable that Diana will be angry about this, she was born in Miss Wanjin, and her father is still a ruthless person who dares to make and spread computer viruses in order to cover up her black history, under the protection of such a family, where has she received such gossip.
He gently patted Diana's hand gripping the sheets and said, "I'll take care of this matter." ”
"Forget it. Diana waved her hand, "Anyway, I'll leave after the matter of Avalon City is resolved in a few days, you don't need to make trouble with my colleagues for me." ”
"I'm measured. Charles said.
Diana's words are not radical, she is not a stupid white sweet who does not understand office politics, she just thinks that it is not worth using her limited resources for such a trivial matter. She wasn't the kind of person who barked at her and she was going to bite it, and she didn't want to make Charles unhappy in the caravan for her sake.
However, from Charles's side, he had to react to the matter. Because the other meaning of this gossip is that he is stupid ❌ to find someone, and he is confused by a girl of unknown origin. If he doesn't fight back on this matter, then all kinds of gossip about him will definitely increase in the coming days. More seriously, this gossip is likely to spread and ferment further on the mainland as the caravan advances.
After leaving his room, Charles went to Halkala and Tonyo's rooms to talk.
