Chapter Forty-Six: I'm Not Available
Charles and his party came to the dock, which attracted the attention of most of the people present, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, even if the Chevalier family has begun to decline, but the heritage of nearly a thousand years is still there, hundreds of elite warriors plus dozens of guard knights are not ordinary nobles can take it.
Elite warriors are just that, those knights are eye-catching existences, they are all wearing Florence forged chain mail, each set is worth hundreds of livres, and the war horses under the crotch are high-quality Spaya war horses under the age of six, each of which costs thousands of livres, plus the weapons that are attached, and the high salary every month, all the property of a small nobleman may not be able to support these arrogant guys.
Yes, it was arrogance, although they were all young, and some of them even wore the characteristic sparse beards of young men under their lips, but they all tried to put on a strong posture to hide the tension in their hearts and the greenness on their faces.
These are the knights of the family who have just received the title from their father's father, and the surviving new generation of the Chevalier family, who have answered the urgent call of Olive Chevalier and accompanied her to Ferrent.
Not for anything else, just to fill the scene.
As Olive stepped out of the luxurious carriage, the young knights bowed their heads to him in unison, their eyes swelling with the punctual look of adolescent as they stared at the ground.
Olive in a gorgeous dress is too eye-catching in the crowd, although she is still a child who has not grown up, but her elegant demeanor, dignified expression, and slightly arrogant eyes have explained to the people around her what is a real imperial capital wealthy lady.
"Hmph! I don't know the height of the sky, I don't know the height of the sky, I dare to beat my sister's idea, and dare to ignore me as the head of the family so much, they are all goods who owe 'beating'!"
A fat man with a tall horse saw that a group of hairy boys were very respectful to his sister, and although the posture was very standard when he saluted himself, there was always such a casual taste, and his heart suddenly had evil thoughts, and he came up with dozens of devil training methods in an instant, preparing to experiment on these knights in the future.
On the other hand, a few new knights such as Bourne and Gerson, although they practice lame knightly etiquette, their attitude towards Charles is meticulous and very sincere.
They couldn't understand why the young boys were so perfunctory to Charles, or why Charles were so low-key.
You must know that an Earl who can cut off the head of a Revenant cannot be overrespected.
"Sir, the convoy is about to depart, we need to board the ship quickly, there are only a few rooms on the Lothair, how do you think these knights should be distributed, who should be with you and the young lady?"
Roy has been a wealthy housekeeper for many years, and his ability to observe words and emotions is first-class, and when he saw that his master was obviously unhappy, he immediately came over and asked deliberately.
"Well, Bourne and the other six have just joined the family, and they still need to investigate carefully, so come with us! ”
"I see, sir. ”
Roy smiled and nodded at Charles, then turned to a stern and indifferent face, walking towards a group of expectant hairy horsemen.
After a few moments, Charles seemed to hear a sigh of frustration and disappointment, and his mood immediately became very happy.
Byrne and the others did not expect that they would be on the same ship as Charles, and when they boarded the "Lothair", they were still complacent about the treatment that was different from other knights.
"Hey, I'll just say! How can those boys who don't have any hair grow up compare with us, they look like rookies who have never been to the battlefield, you look at the way they looked down on people just now, if it weren't for the fact that we are all nominally eating with the Earl now, I must let them know who the real warriors are." The bearded Foreman said bluntly.
The young and handsome Gerson didn't think so, "Hmph, Foreman, do you think that guy is looking at us differently? He just doesn't worry about us, I don't believe you look at the way the butler and the knight look at us, they are wary of us." ”
Byrne, who was walking in front, turned his head suddenly, "Gerson, you shut up for me, and if you say anything like this, I'll throw you into the river and swim to Nasser by yourself!"
"Am I not right? You are all blinded by money and titles......
"Hahaha, Gesen doesn't know how to swim, but that's okay, if he falls into the water, I'll get him back. ”
The sailor walked up from behind, grabbed Gerson's shoulder and half-dragged him into the distance, "Come, let me introduce you to this ship, this is a 'scissor head', his hull is slender, the speed is very fast, it is most suitable for ocean sailing, but it requires very high sailing skills of sailors, and the cost is very expensive, and I will buy .......one when I save enough money in the future."
Gerson and Bourne's argument Charles actually heard it, but he didn't care at all, just with a group of old hats who had never seen the world, he could still play with himself, an elite talent who was used to seeing leadership skills in his previous life?
Hundreds of people, dozens of war horses, and a luxurious carriage were busy for most of the day before squeezing into the four sailing ships, and then they waited to set off with the escort fleet.
The Bisoa River is the boundary river between the kingdoms of Florence and Bya, and the water fleet of the Kingdom of Byia is very powerful, so the military transport fleets between the northern part of the Kingdom of Florence and the fortress of Ferent will regularly sail with the escort fleet, and once every three days they will sail back and forth between the fortress dock and the Atlanta Ocean.
"Woo......."
The loud sound of the horn came from afar, and Charles, who was watching his sister make his bed and fold the quilt, looked up, thinking that it was the horn of the escort fleet lifting anchor.
But after half a day, the fleet did not set sail, and while Charles was wondering, a sound of horses' hooves sounded from far and near from the east side of the dock.
"Won't there be any more trouble?" said Charles, frantically standing up, pushing the door open and walking out of the cabin.
Charles' eyesight was good, and he could see General Cardo in the distance, and a man in a white priest's robe, who Charles guessed was Bishop Kelvin Leslie, the head of the church in the fortress of Ferent.
The appearance of the two bigwigs is extraordinary, but they are not the most dazzling people at this time.
A group of silver-armored knights, accompanied by the Flensian cavalry and the knights of the church guard, slowly approached along the horse path on the side of the dock with a large banner, and when Charles saw the flag, his face suddenly became gloomy.
The image on the flag is of two standing lions with a crown on top, which is the flag of the royal family of Spaya.
The flag came to a stop on the side of the Lothair, and several knights in silver armor separated from each other, revealing a knight on a white horse in the center.
The blond hair was casually draped on both sides, and the dark blue pupils, the high bridge of the nose, and the thin lips formed a ...... Nasty handsome face.
"MMP, doesn't it mean that the royal family of Sbaia is popular to marry close relatives?, how could such a nasty guy be born?" Charles complained helplessly again, hating why he couldn't eat with his face.
The guard officer next to the knight on the white horse stepped forward and shouted a few words in the Sbayan language, while the annoying fat man Forde Czacoman acted as an interpreter and shouted at the top of his voice: "The messenger of the kingdom of Sbaia, Prince Porunvia, has come to meet the Count of Bayonne!"
"I'm not available, I'm not there!"
“.......”
Oliver and the others, who had already heard the movement, were all black lines, but Lola, the female knight who was holding her arms, had a bright eyes and a smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Hehehe! Give me my gift to Count Bayonne!"
A large chest was lifted onto the deck of the Lothair, and when opened, the chest full of silver coins reflected in the sunlight.
"I thought it was gold!
“........”
Everyone was overwhelmed, and the female knight Lola also showed a rare smile.
