Chapter 16: The Gnaeus Family

"Dear Augustus, welcome back to the city of Alders, I have set up a banquet at the 'Alder Rose Workshop' and 'Teclatan' to await your arrival! Signed: Your friend Pompey Gnaeus. The messenger Yurimos looked at Augustus, a young man who could have been pinched to death in an instant with one hand, but now he had to use a respectful tone.

I feel a little happy and a little sad! For magicians, time is wealth, and the longer they survive, the closer the obscure path to the magical gods will be, but for knights, after the age of forty, they have not yet broken through the realm of high-level knights, let alone become a powerful and incomparable knight of the holy coffin, even if they become a great knight, it is almost a luxury.

Yurimos's talent has been applied to the limit, so it has only stagnated in the realm of high-level knights so far.

Augustus did not pay attention to the complicated and sad emotions of Jurimos, and even he had long forgotten the humble but proud knight who came to his house, opened the letter engraved with the emblem of the golden goat of the Gnaeus family, read this simple letter, handed the letter to Jurimos without hesitation, and said with a smile: "Please tell Young Master Pompey to go to Tyclata, where we first officially met, and hope that Young Master Pompey will be willing to prepare a suitable weapon for me." ”

Yurimos nodded, his eyes showing no disdain, and he resigned to leaving.

The weak have only obedience in front of the strong, and Yurimos, who has lived in the Gnaeus family for nearly fifteen years, naturally knows this principle. Although it was not clear how strong Augustus was, the elegant and quiet knight standing behind Augustus and the burly minotaur with explosive muscles were enough to discourage the intimid Yurimos, who did not dare to show a disrespectful demeanor.

He bowed his head and poured a cup of tea. Augustus glanced at Huo Nan, who did not hide his curiosity, and Alista, a minotaur with a calm and clumsy face, and said with a smile: "This young master Pompey is the only noble young master I know who is not hostile to me and is willing to invest in me!" ”

Huo Nan, who had already heard from Augustus about this master's fierce achievements in Alder City, also had to marvel that his master was really a rational and intelligent pervert! Doesn't it take courage and wisdom for a commoner to dare to openly provoke a nobleman and injure or even maim a nobleman without even the slightest punishment, and to live with impunity for six years?

At least Huo Nan has never seen such a brave and intelligent person in that country.

"This young master Pompey is really well-informed. Young Master Augustus, you have only been in the city for a meal, and this young master Pompey has received the news that you have come to the city, and he has also sent a messenger to convey the message of meeting you, which is really fast! Huo Nan looked at Augustus and sighed with a chuckle.

Augustus smiled at her clever subordinate and said, "Don't despise any nobleman, even a nobleman who only knows how to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble will burst out with amazing strength when he is a yin person, and an orthodox nobleman has long learned from their ancestors how to be a fool with a mask of sincerity but cunning, once you despise them, it will be an unimaginable price!" ”

Huo Nan accepted the master's preaching with a smile. But he continued to ask, "Young Master Augustus, do you think this Young Master Pompey, who has a bad reputation in Alder City, is a nobleman who only knows how to spend time and drink or a 'fool' with a mask of hypocrisy?" ”

Augustus took a sip of tea, glanced at the simple but beautiful and even gorgeous font that Yurimos had sent, and said softly: "It is absolutely impossible for a fool who only knows how to spend all his time drinking and drinking to take care of a middle-aged woman who is probably useless and unrewarding for six years!" A nobleman who has gone to great lengths to pretend to be a hypocrite and not have any scheming fools will never join the army, and he has taken three olive trees second only to the Iron Oak Medal and a Golden Eagle Medal from the tragic battlefield! ”

Without waiting for Huo Nan to continue asking, Augustus said softly: "This Young Master Pompey may be able to revitalize the declining Gnaeus family!" ”

Later, Augustus asked Alista, who was not good at words and action, to take the Warrior Knights hidden on Alder Mountain to report to the city lord Urgat, after all, such a large-scale Noxian knights appeared in Alder City, even if it was hidden, it could not be hidden.

Two hundred knights, most of whom are above the middle rank, is a powerful lineup that even ordinary middle-level nobles can't use! Only a few nobles who controlled a fief or city could have such a powerful arm.

Although the current Augustus is a nobleman's medal, it lacks a realm that a nobleman should have. But it had many knightly orders that most nobles should not have, and perhaps when Ferreljord truly belonged to Augustus. This Noxian knight may be able to leap to the top and become a big man who can rival the great aristocratic class in St. Peter, the imperial capital of Noxus.

And it's the kind that has a lot of power.

However, the premise of all this depends on whether Augustus has the ability to subdue Ferreljord, or whether Augustus has the ability to conquer the three great women of Ferreljord, Princess Ash, Princess Lisandro, and Princess Sejuani!

At eight o'clock, Augustus took Huo Nan and the old knight Ge Taidong to a banquet with him! To the flattered expression of the old knight, Augustus simply replied: "As a butler, you should have insight that is not inferior to that of anyone." Titratan may be your first stop to learn aristocratic etiquette and life! ”

Huo Nan looked at Ge Taidong, who was fluently expressing his loyalty, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Even a little jazz can say flattering words so sincerely and sincerely, as beautiful as holy music." Nobles are such people, and they are really not to be underestimated! The Gnaeus family, this family has had two marquis, five earls, and more than a dozen viscounts, and what kind of surprise will it give me? I'm really looking forward to it! ”

Even though the Ionian-born High Knight had walked a path that many had not walked in their lifetimes, had experienced things unimaginable to ordinary people, and had read books that Augustus, a madman who was racing against time to absorb books, admired him. But after all, he couldn't hide his embarrassing identity as a commoner, and he was more than enough in the face of Augustus, barbarians, minotaurs, and Ferreldrod, but what about the nobility? But I still don't have any experience.

On the contrary, Augustus has skills and attainments in this area that Huo Nan cannot match. As Sir Ge Taidong said: Young Master Augustus was born an elegant and noble nobleman!

The Titratan Hotel is still the noblest meeting place for the nobility of Alder City. There is an endless stream of nobles coming and going! Many famous businessmen also wanted to approach this hotel and talk to some nobles, and finally got a pitiful relationship!

The departure or arrival of the little man Augustus has no effect on the behemoth of the Titratan Hotel. There is not even the slightest sign of Augustus leaving or coming on this behemoth. At least it used to be.

A club where aristocrats come and go endlessly, will never go to a commoner who can remember an ordinary commoner. Jurimos carefully arranged all the preparations in the room, hoping that the young master Pompey, whom he respected and feared, would be satisfied.

Raising his head and cautiously glancing at Young Master Pompey, who was standing in the same position as six years ago, Yurimos took a deep breath! Even with his hidden deep hostility towards Augustus, he had to express his admiration, and Augustus, who was enough for him to admire, was valued by the proud young master Pompey. Otherwise, the young master Pompey, who has always acted unscrupulously, would not have forcibly set the room where he met Augustus six years ago, nor would he take out the broadsword that could be regarded as the protection of the Gnaeus family.

"Jurimos, this young master Augustus was just a commoner six years ago, and now he is a young man who has won three Iron Oak Medals in the Empire, even the proud Ofette of the Mark family also expresses deep awe and jealousy of this culprit who caused him a heavy blow three years ago, what way do you say I should receive him for such a big man?"

Yurimos was stunned for a moment, looked at Young Master Pompey, who had been looking out of the window and had not turned his head, and lowered his head slightly. He turned back very honestly and said: "Young Master Pompey, in my heart, I am very resistant to this Augustus who is equal to me, but has already stepped into the threshold of nobility, but I also have to admit that this Young Master Augustus has a certain strength to avoid the goddess of bad luck and take care of it while being favored by the goddess of luck." Therefore, Master Pompey, perhaps you can greet this Young Master Augustus in the manner of a nobleman! ”

Pompey glanced back in surprise at the famous Jurimus who was known for his arrogance among the knights of the family, but he did not pause for long, looked at the endless stream of people, and said softly: "I remember that our honorable General Burnham personally greeted the current Holy See Pope Oyesura. Perhaps this has given me the best revelation! ”

Immediately, in the absence of any reaction from Yurimos. His young master Pompey tidied up the already neat pale blue clothes on his body, and walked out of the room towards the outside.

Yurimos glanced out the window and saw Augustus walking in from Tekratan!

Yurimos sighed lightly: "Is this a turning point in the rise of the Gnaeus family?" Master Pompey! ”

Under the Tekratan Hotel, in the stunned eyes of the endless stream of nobles, the graceful but at the same time incomparable pride of the Gnieus family was as bright as the sun in the city of Alders, Young Master Pompey smiled and bent down towards a young Noxian soldier wearing the most ordinary armor of the Noxian Empire. Sitting respectfully with aristocratic courtesy, he looked at the young Noxian soldier with a smile and chuckled softly: "Welcome, Young Master Augustus!" ”

Almost all the aristocratic businessmen and politicians present stopped and looked curiously at this Noxian soldier who had no aristocratic temperament. But they didn't wait long for them to wonder about the Noxian soldier's soldiers. The Noxian soldier also made a flawless and impeccable aristocratic greeting gift, stretched out a hand, looked at the handsome nobleman in front of him with a charming smile and smiled at the handsome nobles and celebrities in front of him, and said softly: "Young Master Pompey, let's continue the deal that was not negotiated six years ago!" Perhaps it could be said that the seeds you planted six years ago can finally be harvested! ”

Pompey said with a smile: "This is my honor, and it is also one of the few things I can be proud of!" ”

Immediately, in the stunned eyes of others, the elegant Young Master Pompey took the ordinary soldier's hand and walked into the Tekratan Hotel. (To be continued.) )
