Early the next morning, the tired Noron took Ellie and Sue and followed Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to return to the Platia Empire in the farewell of His Excellency the Governor of the Ino Council.

Last night, Ellie was in a good mood after learning that Noron had resisted Sally's temptation, which directly led to her pestering Norlong to listen to the story all night. Helpless, Noron had no choice but to adapt some of the original fairy tales and fables on the earth according to the otherworldly style and tell them to Ellie.

This lecture is eight hours, from dark to dawn. So early in the morning, Norlong, who had two faint dark circles under his eyes, silently put the sleepy Su into the temple, and returned to his villa in the imperial capital with Ellie, who was still very energetic.

"Nuolong, look at it, wait for me to go back and mention a few words to the imperial brother, it won't be long before the empire will issue a reward to you. When you get this reward, remember to invite me and Kiki to dinner! ”

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one early in the morning, Her Royal Highness Princess Sally relieved her usual coldness and seriousness, threw a wink at Norlong, and pulled Kiki, who had turned into a human form, to say goodbye to him at a fork in the road and go back to the palace.

"Definitely, definitely!" Noron said casually. He didn't have time to hide from Sally, so how could he go back to her? Isn't this asking for trouble!

Although I saw Noron's perfunctory, Sally didn't care if she wanted to snatch a man from the gods, so it was interesting, wasn't it? Sally looked at Ellie, who was standing next to Noron and was using her gaze to attack her, and smiled softly as she left the quiet street in the early morning.

"Let's go, Ellie."

"Hmm."

―――――――――――――Utopia Alliance――――――――――――――

The Utopian Alliance is a commercial alliance formed by a large number of sparsely populated and ungodly interracial races, under the slogan of 'harmony and equality', and has only been established for hundreds of years, compared to other thousand-year-old empires or kingdoms.

But as we all know, even among the same race, there are all kinds of dirty things, let alone an interracial alliance? In the Utopia Alliance, the powerful Winged Clan, Sea Orcs, and Bloods occupy 80% of the resource share, while the weaker Villains (not the halflings mentioned above), the Snake Clans (the Orc Empire's Snake Clan has a tail, and the Snake Clans do not have tails), Goblins (the goblins here don't invent and create), Barbarians (this race has a strong combat ability, but most of them are berserker professions, which are easy to be targeted), Gnomes (good at using bows and arrows, But will not engage in inventions) can only get the remaining twenty percent.

Moreover, because most of the snake women are bewitching and beautiful, the barbarians are brave and good at fighting, and the villains have high drug resistance, which is very suitable for experimental medicine, so in the slave market, the prices of these three tribes remain high, and many slave hunting groups and even other alien races will secretly attack them.

Now, for example, less than a week after Noron returned home, Becolis came to the door again.

―――――――――― Noron is on another mission――――――――――――

"I said Bailey, what's the matter with you?"

I don't know why, Becolis likes to chat with him in the living room of the small villa in Nolon, as if he has no intention of going to the upstairs reception room at all.

"Mr. Norlon, I have brought good news this time, you can welcome me with this?" Becolis looked at the white water in front of him with a smile, while Noron was drinking a cup of fragrant black tea and deliberately let out a delicious exclamation.

"What else do you say?" Nuolong put down the black tea in his hand angrily: "Who asked me to go out to hide (eldest princess) at that time, but it happened to hide in front of others, and it was still the place in the orc empire that didn't even have a soft bed." This time, it brought good news. ”

Noron lay on the sofa, knocked the nuts he took from Ellie's small plate, handed a few to Bekelis, and said inarticulately: "You won't tell me, the good news is that I will be asked to go out on business again, which can be regarded as a public trip!" ”

Originally, Noron just said it casually, but he didn't expect Bekelis to be silent, just lowered his head and played with the nuts sent by Her Royal Highness Princess Sally, while Tosso on the side looked at his embarrassed boss and nodded to Noron with a wry smile.

"Hey, hey, you're not mistaken!" Noron immediately jumped up from the sofa: "I finally went to the Warcraft Empire last time to do a big thing, and I haven't gotten the reward yet, but it's only been a few days, so I'm going to be sent out again?" You're too inhuman, aren't you? ”

"Ahem, so," Becolis coughed dryly, "So, didn't I send you a reward?" ”

Becolis took out a small brown wooden box from his own space and distance, placed it in front of Noron and opened it, on the purple goose down cushion was an oval coat engraved with a bird representing the royal family of Platia, and the outermost circle was inlaid with iron edges, and an oval badge with two small crosses was placed on a piece of parchment.

"This oval-shaped coat of arms is the noble symbol of our Platian Empire. Beginning with the duke and ending with the baron, it is divided into gold-edged red; Silver-edged blue, copper-edged white, iron-edged cyan, and finally borderless black. Our Platian Empire, like the other two human empires, has five titles, sixteen ranks, each of which is divided into three ranks, and then the lowest, without even a badge, only a certified knight. ”

Becklis, pursed his lips and looked at Noron with a slight smile. And for the sake of the badge and the golden ticket, Noron asked Erin (one of the maids of the villa) to pour him a cup of black tea.

After more than ten minutes of coming, Becolis, who finally had a cup of black tea, drank black tea for almost five minutes under Toso's crying and laughing expression, and then continued to explain to him in Nolon's eyes that wanted to kill: "Your badge has two crosses, representing the second class, and a cross star of the first class, and it is a green background and iron edge. So, Nolon, you are now in the Plata Empire, and you are a second-class viscount. ”

Ignoring the exaggerated tone of Becorlis, Noron picked up the parchment under the coat of arms and looked at it, to the effect that in recognition of Mr. Noron Burton's contribution to the Platian Empire, the Empire bestowed on him the title of Second Viscount, hoping that he would continue to work for the prosperity of the Empire in the future.

"Second Viscount? Not bad! Noron chuckled and put the box away. Because of his unknown origin, he originally thought that he only had a baronial title that represented honor, but it was useless, but he didn't expect it to be a second-class viscount who could apply for a territory, and it seems that Becolis and Sally have made a lot of efforts in this.

"Tell me, for the sake of the knighthood, what difficult tasks do I need to complete?"

PS: I have a bad cold, it's really uncomfortable, I'll try to make sure there is a change these days...
