It took a long time for Charles to convince the trembling captain of the city guard that he was not going to complain, but really wanted to get acquainted with the local nobles.

Ged wiped the cold sweat from his forehead that didn't exist, and breathed a long sigh of relief, he felt that it was too hard to get along with these nobles, especially when he still had the handle in their hands.

He picked up a glass of ale on the table, and just as he was about to pour it into his mouth, he put it down in a sneering manner under Charles' inquiring gaze.

Ged cleared his throat and said with a serious face: "Your Excellency, as you can see, this is Djerkhara, one of the most high-profile cities in the kingdom of Rhodok, and its owner is Count Atlas, and you must have heard of a big man like him. There were two marquisate families in the city, one was the Grovov family and the other was the Carmen family. They have lived here for generations and have a great reputation here. Their head of the house is Pierce. Marquis of Grovov and Dante. The Marquis de Carmen, to whom most of the shops in the city belonged. There are even more viscounts and barons, but most of them have no territory and no fixed position, so ......"

"So you don't know, do you?" said Charles, looking at the dumb boy amusedly, interrupting his next argument.

G&D scratched his head in embarrassment, suddenly realizing that this action was not polite at all, and quickly put his hand down again.

Charles lowered his head and secretly thought that if he wanted to blend into these aristocratic circles, he would definitely not be able to stand out by relying only on the likes of the viscount and baron. Count Atlas is too powerful and high-ranking to consider it for the time being, so the target now can only be the two marquis families of Grovov and Carmen. But how do you get their attention?

Thinking of this, Charles's brows furrowed unconsciously.

Ged felt that his head was really three years old now, and he had fallen from the first time he saw Charles, and he didn't know what Charles was thinking all the time. The damn aristocrat didn't know how many times he had frowned in such a short period of time, and the bad thing was that he didn't know what he had in mind to do this.

G&D felt his heart tired, and he silently pondered: Could it be that he had done something wrong? Or did you say something wrong? He's not going to sue me!

My God! Is this the aristocracy? Uncle is dealing with such monsters every day! It's not easy for my uncle, I'm still unlearned. No way! I must work seriously in the future, and I will never make my uncle and his old man unhappy again!

Charles didn't notice the captain of the city guard, who suddenly became determined, so he didn't know that he had inadvertently saved a prodigal son, and even if he did, he probably wouldn't believe it was true, after all, such things can only be seen in stories.

Charles suddenly thought of a good idea, since the two big families have their own shops, and they are both famous families here, the so-called peers are enemies, Charles does not believe that there is no conflict between them. As long as you can grasp this key point, then you ............

Before Xia Erzai could carefully consider how to find this point, G&D on the side interrupted his train of thought and said with a flattering face: "My lord, you must be tired from the hard work all the way, so I won't disturb your rest in the future." There's a big game in town tomorrow morning, so I'm interested in seeing it? ”

Athletic conventions? What is that?

G&D saw Charles's puzzlement, and quickly explained: "The Athletic Convention is an event held in the Arena, which is open to all citizens, and those who win the Athletic Convention will receive a laurel crown, as well as a reward of two hundred dinars, and most importantly, the winning warrior will be personally received by Lord Count Atlas!" If you're lucky, you'll be able to enter the adult's castle for a banquet! ”

He paused and said, "The True Sword Contest is also held in the arena in normal times, and that is also for all citizens, but it is completely incomparable to a rare big event like the Athletic Conference. At least, there are absolutely no nobles in the True Sword Competition, and in the Athletic Competition, many of the great nobles will personally participate in it. If I can show my face in the athletic conference, then I have no regrets in my life! ”

Charles looked at the captain of the city guard who had fallen into his wonderful fantasy in front of him, and his heart suddenly moved.

Athletic tournaments? You might want to try it out yourself.

So, Charles smiled, and that smile gave people a feeling like a spring breeze. He lightly lifted his lips (as if something was wrong) and said word by word: "Of course I will go and see it, it would be better if I could participate in such a competition!" ”

To his surprise, G&D looked at him in shock, like a fool who couldn't help himself.

Charles's face was a little hung up, and he coughed heavily.

G&D was awakened at this time, and hurriedly explained: "Your Excellency, you know, I don't mean anything else, it's just that there are too many accidents in the athletic conference, and it won't be good if you bump into it, so you should watch the excitement and don't go to it." ”

Charles pretended to be unhappy: "Could it be that there are any great characters in this competition?" The kind I can't touch yet? ”

"No, no, you misunderstood, everyone has to wear a hood during the game, so no one knows who they are against. And those who participate in it will not care about their defeat, they will praise the winner in order to show their generosity, so you don't need to worry about this at all. ”

"Well, why can't I participate in the competition?"

"Ahh I'm just worried that you're accidentally ......"

Charles interrupted his next words with a wave of his hand, and said expressionlessly: "I was accidentally beaten by others, right?" Then you can rest assured, I won't be angry with others for such a thing. Everyone is responsible for their own choices, isn't it? ”

Ged wanted to defend himself, but Charles had to say before he opened his mouth: "Okay, don't worry, I'm just trying to be fresh, and I haven't made up my mind what I want to do in it." You can just help me sign up, just for my friends, okay? ”

G&D was finally relieved, it was his own victory to let this little "vampire" say such a thing, he nodded and said: "Since you have said so, the rest is wrapped up in me, you rest well, I will arrange someone for me tomorrow morning, no, I will personally pick you up, I bet you will be able to open everyone's eyes!" ”

Charles replied with a smile: "Thank you so much, and I hope your words can really bless me from losing so badly in the competition, if I am eliminated in the first round, you can treat me to a big meal to comfort me!" “

After saying this, Charles laughed a few times, as if what he had just said was just a joke.

G&D stopped talking, bent down and bowed, and left.

Charles sat at the table, looked at the staggered tables not far away, and secretly made up his mind:

Yourself, it's time to act!
