Chapter 0218 - Worth an Oscar (First Update)
If it is a thief who suddenly appears, even if it is a woman, Liszt will find an opportunity to kill her - this kind of person who threatens his life, does he really want the other party to fall in love with him if he doesn't get rid of it?
But as a reward for the Smoke Mission.
Killing the other party is equivalent to throwing away the reward directly, after all, the smoke quest has already made a "hint" - Serf Maggie.
The trainee maid, Maggie, is the key to the reward, the key to the mercenary or magician in front of her. As for how to use the key to open the treasure chest, it is definitely not to arrest the little maid Maggie and threaten the other party. The best way to do this is with love.
"Maggie has formed a contract mother and daughter with Mrs. Harriet at the grocery store, and this mercenary is equivalent to half of Flower Town!"
Since he was his own person, Liszt's mood suddenly brightened.
And began to think about how to play the cards in his hand - Maggie, and personal reputation.
At this time.
The mercenary had already said who she wanted to take: "I want to take a maid from the castle, does the baron agree?" ”
"The maids in the castle?" said Liszt, pretending to think for a moment, "there are sixteen maids in the castle, which one do you want to take with you?"
"Erin. ”
"Erin Four Fingers?" Liszt glanced at the mercenary in surprise, he didn't expect the other party to play with him, if he hadn't guessed earlier, he would really be fooled, "Why do you want to take Erin, give me a reason to promise you." ”
"It's just a maid, what a reason is needed. Baron, if you want to test if my sword is sharp, I don't mind letting you know. ”
"My sword is not rusty either. Liszt did not back down, and met the mercenary's bright eyes.
Half of him is acting, half of him is confident.
There is Shake Sen, there is the Red Blood Sword, as an elite earth knight.
As long as the other party is not a Sky Knight, he can't take advantage of himself in front of him.
With confidence, you can perform with peace of mind - show the lord's love for the lords, show their tough side, and show a noble image that meets the expectations of the people at the bottom - under the knightly system, everyone is equal and does not exist, and the heroic and benevolent lord is the embodiment of justice.
The worn-out leather armor of the female mercenary shows that she is undoubtedly at the bottom of society.
A moment later.
She really took a step back: "Erin is my sister, is this reason okay?" ”
"Your sister?" Liszt smiled, "if it's true, I'll call her over and confirm with you in person." I'm not against family reunions, in fact, you can come and see me directly as a relative. Erin applied for a maid on her own in Coral City, and the choice of her stay is in her own hands. ”
"She didn't know my sister existed. ”
"Sorry, this doesn't work, Irene's parents are in Coral City, and they farm for Tulip Castle. I don't think she'll have an extra thief, mercenary, or wizard sister. So I have to wait until Erin's confirmation before I let you take her. ”
"What if I have to take her. ”
"Looks like I've misled you. Liszt suddenly pressed his hand on the hilt of the red blood sword, and said, "The lords work for the lords, and the lords protect the safety of the lords, which is the glory of knighthood that I believe in." I won't allow it, you don't want to take anyone from Flower Town!"
This action is full of momentum, the lines are generous, and the sound is loud.
With his handsome face, the sense of justice is bursting.
Of course, there is a slight suspicion of over-exerting force - such a lord with a sense of justice seems a bit fake.
On the chair opposite, the mercenary's bright eyes flashed with brilliance, and for a while she did not respond to Liszt's righteous rebuke. It wasn't until Liszt was about to feel embarrassed that she slowly spoke: "You are different from the lords I killed, Baron, I will stay in Flower Town for a few days to see what is the difference between you and other lords." ”
He immediately stood up, about 1.75 meters tall, very tall.
Liszt narrowed his eyes.
felt that whether he let her go out or prevent her from going out, it was not a good solution - the key point was that he couldn't estimate the strength of the other party.
It won't be weak anyway.
If the strength is low, there is no need for the smoke mission to be so solemn, and count her as a reward.
When she reached the door of the study and was about to open it, Liszt got up and followed: "I don't know why you came at Erin, but I must warn you not to try to hurt Erin. Don't have any bad intentions in Flower Town, and besides, leave your name behind. ”
"Swan. The mercenary smiled, unconcerned about Liszt's threat.
It's not a standard feminine name, it's probably a pseudonym, Liszt guessed.
Thomas, who was decorating the living room, was stunned when he saw Liszt following a female mercenary out, and then stepped forward to salute: "Master." ”
Liszt said, "Thomas, you send this uninvited guest, Lady Swan, out of the castle." In addition, Gortai was informed that he could find a new house in the town for Ms. Swan. ”
Feeling that this kind of co-optation was too deliberate, he added: "The money for food and lodging is the same as that of those foreign businessmen." ”
Although Thomas didn't know why there was an extra woman dressed like this in the castle, he still respectfully accepted the order: "Yes, sir." Ms. Swan, please follow me. ”
Wait for Swan to follow Thomas out of the castle.
Carter, the butler, asked suspiciously, "Sir, this lady Swan, I didn't see her enter the castle, and I've been wiping the dust in the hall." ”
"She came in over the wall. Liszt stood in the doorway, watching Swan's back disappear into the avenue in the distance, "I will tell you about her origin, when the time is right." As for now, how much do you care about the servants in the castle, especially the maids, and if they have any grievances, they should be resolved as soon as possible. ”
Carter didn't ask any more: "As you wish, sir." ”
"By the way, Mr. Carter, you go and call Erin to come to my study, I have something to ask her. "Do a full set of plays, since the mercenary said that she came for Erin, he couldn't help but say something.
Erin hurried to the study.
"Master, are you looking for me?"
"Erin, how many brothers and sisters do you have in your family?"
"I have two younger brothers. ”
"No sisters, or cousins?"
"No, sir. ”
"Are you sure you don't, for example, when I was a child, I gave it to someone else's sister. ”
"I don't know about this, but when I was born, my mother was only seventeen years old, so I don't think I have a sister. ”
So the possibility that Swan is Erin's sister is basically ruled out, she is just playing with her heart. Liszt's heart was settled, and his tone became more and more gentle: "How is the work in the kitchen?"
"All is good, sir. ”
"Well, if there's anything, you can just report it to Mr. Carter. The little maid intern in the kitchen, as an older sister, you have to take care of them more and don't let them be wronged. ”
"Of course, I will. ”
The conversation ends, and Erin is sent away.
Liszt carefully combed through his response after meeting Swan, and felt that there were a few details that had not been handled well and there were some flaws, but overall, his response was not bad.
There is no abrupt enthusiasm, no deliberate hostility.
The courage and kindness that should be shown also shows that it is basically like a spring breeze.
Worthy of an Oscar...... At least worth a golden rooster.
