Chapter 4: Interesting People
The accident just now was a small episode at best, and after carefully checking that Antonis was fine, the Marquis asked the knights of the Lancaster family to escort the earl who hit a big bag on his head first, and he didn't bother to think too much about these civilians, of course, whether the earl wanted to retaliate afterwards, the two didn't care too much.

Throwing down a small bag of coins, Leo asked Keith to instruct the boss to send the professor who was snorting underground to the doctor, and then he and the Marquis of Auston quickly left the chaotic place
At the same time, the civilians watching around were inevitably slightly threatened by the knights who followed, after all, Antonis's accident was not too big or too small to be an embarrassing thing, if it was left unchecked, I am afraid that after the news was added to the vinegar, it would soon appear at the dinner party of a certain nobleman......
There was silence for a while, but it was Leo who asked first
"Auston, can you tell me more about what kind of professor that was? I'm curious about how a person who used to be an advisor to His Majesty is now so downcast. ”
"Pericles Setopia? Things aren't as you think...... There is a tavern in front of the environment is good, the proprietress is a rare beauty, we used to rest a little, I will tell you in detail about this person's interesting facts! ”
As if thinking of something funny, the Marquis couldn't help but laugh first as he spoke.
********************
Following the Marquis of Auston, Leo came to the place of his mouth, the tavern was small but extremely clean, the tavern frame was completely made of whole logs, the strange style was very different from most imperial buildings, the interior decoration was simple and not luxurious, in the words of the earth, there was a little bit of a petty bourgeois mood.
After ordering a few of his signature drinks and snacks, and signaling Finn and the marquis's family knight to be free, Leo and Auston sat alone
After a while, the proprietress of the big beauty in Auston's mouth walked over with light steps, and the extremely tight belt made the small waist look extremely bewitching, and the full breasts made people have a kind of expectation that they would get rid of it in the next second......
Skillfully reached out and patted the proprietress with a straight pp, and the Marquis of Auston laughed in his mouth
"Sophia, I haven't seen you for almost half a year, I don't think I went out to find other men when I couldn't help it, right?"
The seemingly delicate proprietress inadvertently flashed a trace of blush on her face, glanced at the unfamiliar Leo with some embarrassment, slapped off the marquis's paws, and put the tray in her hand heavily on the table
"Oh, Your Excellency the Honorable Marquis has been around for so long, it's rare to be able to think of me, a humble widow, don't worry about you, if the old lady wants a man, the threshold will be broken!"
Smiled Auston didn t care about it seeing that the relationship between the two should have been extremely familiar for a long time and pulled Sophia over and kissed her on the face, the marquis opened his mouth and introduced
"Sophia, this is Leo, a true nobleman and gentleman, and a good friend of mine, don't be rude in the future, well, the tavern will not receive other guests for the time being, I want to have a quiet chat with His Excellency Leo"
Pushing Auston out of his arms and struggling to stand up, Sophia saluted Leo seriously, and was ready to leave to let the two talk, but after walking a few steps, she couldn't help but turn around and remind
"Auston, you're not in good health, drink less when it's cold......"
Looking at Leo who seemed to be smiling in front of him, Marquis Auston shook his head, twisted a peeled nut from the plate and put it in his mouth, chewed it for a while before swallowing it with the wine, and said with a sigh
"Sophia is also a poor man, her husband was a soldier of the city defense army, and he died in an operation to suppress barbarians not long after he got married, and when I happened to meet Sophia, he was being dragged to the alley by several street thugs covering his mouth......"
Shrugging his shoulders, the marquis took another sip of wine, and the rest of the matter can be understood without him telling Leo, it is nothing more than a very old-fashioned story between heroes saving beauty, commoners and nobles
"I can tell from her eyes, Sophia cares about you very much, Auston, haven't you thought about giving her a better life, with your ability this is very simple, so it's not too good to show up outside after all"
After a moment's hesitation, Leo offered some different opinions
"Her own choice, saying that this is how I miss her more, otherwise I am afraid that I will forget her one day after becoming a caged bird, how can I be that kind of person......"
Picking up his glass, he touched Leo, "Let's continue the conversation of Pericles Setopia," and the Marquis took the initiative to change the subject
Seeing Leo nod, Auston began to tell, and in his narration, the image of this down-and-out professor also came to life in the minds of several people......
Pericles Setopia became famous at a young age, and his merchant father, who died early when he was a child, left him a relatively rich family, so that Pericles' life in his youth was not as rich as that of the nobility, but it could also be called wealthy.
After his mother quietly remarried, he was unwilling to become a businessman like his father, and with his brilliant mind and efforts far beyond others, he was finally admitted to the Imperial University, knowing that Pericles was the first student to enter the academy as a civilian in ten years.
After several years of study, Pericles graduated with the highest honors, and was particularly distinguished in the study of continental history and religious history, and not only that, but he was also proficient in the nobility heraldry, pharmacy, and was extremely gifted in art and oratory.
What makes everyone sigh is that perhaps the misfortune of his youth, or the imperfection of genius, or the conflict between him and the children of the nobility during his studies, made Pericles' character gradually become distorted and stubborn
In the early years of graduation, because of his great fame, some nobles invited him to become an advisor, but in the end, they all failed because they couldn't stand his character, which made it more difficult for Pericles to integrate into society
Later, from the invitation of the emperor, who thought he was broad-minded, he became the last noose, and after serving as a court adviser for less than half a month, he became bored with Bertedona I because of his chattering accusations and difficult to get along with
After being politely expelled from the palace, no unsightly nobleman dared to hire Pericles as his staff, which is why Alston said that this man was very famous.
"And then? I'm sorry, I didn't doubt what you meant, Auston, I still can't imagine that such a learned man could ...... Will ......" Leo was frustrated and couldn't find the words to express it
"Would you be so downcast, wouldn't you?" Filling his wine glass, Auston also had some wine, slowly peeled the nuts on the table with his own hands, and shook his head regretfully
"Later, he may have been hit too much, this person locked himself in a house, almost except for drinking and eating, he didn't leave the house, and started research alone, but in a businessman's family, the property left by his father had basically been spent during his study, and as a scholar, he had no other specialties, so he ......."
"So he owes money everywhere to eat and drink, I probably understand why he was beaten up before!"
Shaking his head regretfully, Leo couldn't help but sneer at himself, he really thought that he had the treatment of the protagonist, and he could meet unborn talents everywhere, according to Auston, this is a person with a strange personality of talent and arrogance, in short, it is high IQ and low EQ
With such a character, even if Leo is thirsty for talent, I'm afraid he will have to think twice, after all, he is not sure if he can tolerate this kind of person......
