In fact, if you want to talk about the inner fort, it looks quite large, but when you enter the gate and enter the courtyard in the inner fort, you find that the entire inner fort is like that.

……

There is no ornate decoration, that is, a simple stone room, and in the center of the room there is a round table that is not very large. However, this small room was not intended for a very formal purpose, as Ain could clearly smell the smell of food that had been left behind.

"If nothing else, this should be Sir Sophie's private dining room......" Al Aine grinned slightly, as ventilation in this castle was a real problem, especially for such intimate rooms.

However, although there was still a slight smell of food in the air, the whole round table was very clean, and the neat white tablecloth was spread on it, and there was no trace of dirt.

"Feel free to sit down."

Because it was a round table, there was naturally no difference between high and low positions, so Ain casually found a position that was pleasing to his eyes and sat down.

Of course, the phrase "feel free to sit" just now is said to Ain, although Ain usually does not emphasize these issues of status etiquette, but on this occasion, Harden can only stay behind Ain, and then stand quietly.

Seeing Ain sit down, Sir Sophie's choice of position was very meaningful to Ain.

Although it is a round table, when two people sit on a round table, there seems to be no big difference between it and a square table.

Sir Sophie chose to sit about the opposite side of Iron's position, but slightly off, as if to tell Al Ain that he was not in a position to talk to him. On the other hand, however, it can be understood that Sir Sophie felt that Aine was unworthy of a conversation with him.

Whatever the understanding, the unequal seats have become an established fact anyway.

"Sir Sophie is not too young, and he still lives in such a difficult place every day, protecting the northwestern border of the kingdom, which is also what my juniors have always admired." Aine didn't wait for Sir Sophie to speak, but spoke first.

Although the tone adopted by Ain in his past life is regarded by many players as a taboo for nPC dialogue in the previous life game, Aine doesn't care at all, anyway, there is nothing to talk about now, and there is nothing to do with it, so it is always right to greet him with praise.

Sir Sophie only smiled, and did not answer Iron's words, but clapped his hands, summoned a servant, and ordered two cups of coffee to be made.

After doing this, Sir Sophie shook his head and said, "It's because I didn't know anyone when I was in the royal capital, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten a fief in this position." ”

Aine was silent, it was true that he opened this topic a little badly, but dealing with this kind of conversation was still a familiar thing for Ain, but after a slight change of conversation, he brought these things over.

"There are some differences in each place, if it is sealed in the south, most of them will be idle every day, and they will rule one or two slightly larger villages, one or two industries, and most of them will not be able to be so magnificent." Ain's words still made Sir Sophie sound more comfortable, and now Sir Sophie's heart is used to this place compared to the south.

After a slight pause, Ain's words continued: "But now, the kingdom is at its most dangerous, and it seems that Sir Sophie's side has not received news yet......"

Sir Sophie's slight surprise at this time made Aine unable to tell what kind of medicine was being sold in the gourd of the old fox, who was about forty years old, because from the point of view of the appearance, Aine really had no way to judge whether this Sir Sophie really didn't know or didn't know......

"Among the soldiers of the Icy Legion that I am temporarily commanding, there are several mages who accompany the army, and they learned the news of the sudden fall of the Northwest Fortress through the magic instruments of the transmission some time ago. I'm really surprised that this Xiongguan, which has been standing in the northwest of the kingdom for so long, will fall, but after this Xiongguan, there is a more secure Baishan City, and I feel that those undead have not yet been able to conquer that war fortress. ”

Ain's expression didn't change either, but he asked in a slightly puzzled tone, "During this time, didn't those military mages report to Sir Sophie any more summons and accepted results?" ”

Sir Sophie shook his head slightly, and was about to answer, when he heard a knock at the door.

Coffee.

Taking the coffee from the servant, he watched Sir Sophie take a sip, and Aine could only barely take a sip. At this time, Sir Sophie ordered his servants to go and invite a mage to come along.

"I really haven't received any more reports from them, so I don't feel right with that, so I'll ask when their captain comes. Coincidentally, Baron Ain is supposed to be a powerful mage, and he will help me see if these lowly soldiers are deliberately fooling or having two hearts. ”

"......" Aine was really a little confused at this time, so it seemed that this Sir Sophie was a bit like his own...... Unlike what was said on the forum before, Sir Sophie's desire to surrender was premeditated.

After sorting out his thoughts a little, Aine nodded reluctantly, then took another sip of his coffee.

"Actually, there is a very sour fruit in the south, and the juice of that fruit has that indescribable feeling, if Baron Ayn has the opportunity to go to the south, don't miss it." Sir Sophie squinted his eyes slightly as he took a sip of his coffee, and then said with a little nostalgia.

At this time, Aine was a little absent-minded by this Sir Sophie, anyway, there was a casual chat with Sir Sophie about some things about the nobles, which was to pass the time of waiting.

"Master Sophie." Just as Aine was regaining a beat, a voice outside the door interrupted the conversation between the mage and Sir Sophie.

"Enter." Sir Sophie didn't even look up as if he knew this voice, and said directly, "George, the Baron who came to Sophie as a guest around me said that the northwest of the kingdom is now in a crisis, and I thought about it carefully, as if you haven't reported to me for a week whether there is any news of the summons. ”

Aine looked up at this military mage named George at this time, because many of the military mages in the non-main force were filled by civilians with relatively shallow spellcaster talents, and even if some arcane attainments had three rings and four rings, there was no good way to control their magic energy. For example, the George in front of Ain's eyes was just a mage who looked at it a little and read out his arcane attainments in the three rings.

"Master Sophie, because there is still White Mountain City and Far Winter City, there is no response from our summons, so we feel that everything is as usual. If the city falls, then there should be no way to receive our message. The military mage named George explained.
