Chapter 17: Meet the City Lord

"Haha, then I'll go, and I'll invite you to drink in the evening. ”

After Obotov left, a knight came in and saluted Brow respectfully.

"Go check what this kid did today. ”

"Yes. ”

The castle of the lord is very easy to find, located in the most central part of the East End, it is connected to the Consulate Hall and Bligh Square, and it can be said that it represents the highest standard of architecture in the city of Lenca.

If you want to choose the landmark building of Lenka City, it can only be the castle, which is the undisputed first in terms of status and construction technology.

Obotov, even with the certificate, could not see the lord of the city right away, he had to wait in the consul hall.

Silently looking at the ruling officials walking back and forth, Obotov felt visual fatigue, and sitting here without even drinking saliva was simply torment for a grumpy person like him.

But this is the ruling place of the entire city of Lenka, and you have to coil it with dragons, and Obotov can't bear to live his good years.

After waiting for about an hour, a subordinate officer finally came to talk to him, and after asking about the situation, Obotov was taken away.

In the consul hall, there is a corridor that leads directly to the castle of the city lord, and at this moment, Obotov is walking with his subordinates.

"If you see the city lord later, you should pay attention to your words and deeds, especially the basic etiquette, and the voice should not be too loud, and adults like to be quiet. ”

Along the way, the subordinate officers kept talking, all of which were some precautions, and in his opinion, these officers were the most likely to do rude things, and they had to make it clear to each other in advance.

Obotov listened carefully, he didn't say anything, it seemed to him as if there was a fly flying around him, and the point was that you couldn't shoot it yet.

After arriving at the castle, the architectural style changed completely, the manor was full of green, servants at work, and in the center, the huge Gothic hall exuded an air of dignity at all times.

After arriving here, Obotov immediately became serious, he straightened his clothes, and after a while, the subordinate officer walked out of the hall.

"Your Excellency, you still have some time, please come with me. ”

Walking in the deep and tall corridors, Obotov was not in the mood to look at the reliefs on either side, which, despite their beauty, gave him a very uncomfortable sense of depression.

Click.

The subordinate officer pushed open a tall door, and Obotov was looking through the door, it was a spacious study, and the rows of shelves were full of books, and the number was almost as large as that of a library.

Near the floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a large desk, and not far away, several thick chairs are placed, and the whole room is decorated in burgundy.

"Please come in, your lord is inside. ”

"Thank you. ”

It seemed that the subordinate officer had no intention of going in, and Obotov thanked him, and then walked straight in.

The gate was facing the window, and Obotov immediately saw the city lord sitting in front of the window, he had seen each other several times before, and he was quite impressed.

It was a man of nearly forty years old, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, a fair complexion, a goatee, and a brown shoulder-length curly hair parted from side to side, and he was rustling his desk with a quill to review official documents.

Obotov stood not far from his desk, he did not dare to come out, for fear of disturbing the work of the city lord.

"My officer, tell me, I don't think the work of the defense post is easy, seeing what I'm doing for it. Caron Burke finally stopped creating, took off his glasses, leaned back in his leather chair, and looked at Obotov.

"Hello sir! Obotov from the Eastern Defense Post greets you. ”

As if he was a little too nervous, Obotov's voice was very loud, and after the etiquette, he realized this, and his heart was immediately full of remorse, and he did not even dare to look at Caron Burke.

"Don't be nervous, sit down and tell me what you're here for. Caron Burke smiled, not taking Obotov's faux pas.

"Thank you, thank you, sir. Obotov breathed a sigh of relief at the imminent amnesty, and he sat down softly.

Caron Burke seemed patient, and he didn't say anything more, knowing full well that the other man needed a moment to slow down.

"My lord, can the Rio estate be sold to the outside world, there is someone who wants to buy it. Obotov didn't make the city lord wait too long, he directly explained his intention.

"What's your relationship with that person?"

"Friends. ”

"I see, so what is the identity of your friend?"

"My lord, he can do magic. ”

A few brief conversations ended with surprise on his face, and for a moment he could not accept what Obotov had to say.

"Officer, are you sure your friend knows magic?"

Hearing this question, Obotov hesitated for a moment, but quickly nodded: "My lord, I'm sure my friend hurt me with magic today. ”

"My officer, you must have known this friend for a short time. A smile appeared on Caron Burke's face, and Obotov's hesitation did not escape his eyes.

He didn't mind covering up for his friends, as long as the other party didn't infringe on his interests, and Caron Burke was willing to trust his officers.

"My lord, we only met in the morning. Obotov didn't dare to hide this, the other party was the lord of the city, and what happened in Lenka City couldn't escape his eyes.

The only thing Obotov didn't say was Shura's identity, which he didn't think made much sense, because the viscount was dead.

"It's amazing. ”

Caron Burke stroked his beard, gently rested his left hand on the desk, and kept tapping his middle finger on the table, thinking about it.

"Tell me, did you see his badge?"

"My lord, I'm sorry, I was negligent, I didn't see it. ”

Obotov's face was full of embarrassment, and he kept scolding his carelessness in his heart, knights have knightly medals, and wizards hold badges, which are symbols of their status and status.

He knew very well that this was Caron Burke in disguise wanting to know the strength of Maus, and Obotov was a little worried, worried that this would affect the purchase of the Rio estate.

"It's okay, a teenager, who can use magic, I think your friend should be a wizard's apprentice, and even then, the castle must be taken seriously, because there may be a powerful wizard standing behind him. ”

Soon, Caron Burke decided that the Rio Manor was completely worthless in his hands, and that it would not be a loss in exchange for the goodwill of the wizard's apprentice.

"Well, then, the Rio Manor will be given to your friend, my officer, and in the afternoon you will go to the Consul Hall to get the title deed of the manor. ”

"Ah, is this true, sir?"

"Of course, let your friends remember the kindness of the castle. ”

"Thank you so much, don't worry, sir. ”

After leaving the castle, Obotov was finally relieved, and he suddenly felt that the city lord was a very nice person to get along with, and he had a very pleasant conversation with each other.

Now, he just wants to find a place to have a drink.
