Chapter 27 Puzzle Clearing

"Uncle Black, of course I'm not dead!"

The old butler was dressed in a dazzling silver brilliance at this time, which also surprised Edward on the other side, in Edward's memory, this old butler who had followed the old baron on the battlefield of the demon calamity, gave him the impression that he would always follow the old baron in a low-key manner, dealing with all kinds of chores in the castle.

Unlike other aristocratic families with a high hierarchy, the old baron had Edward and his sister refer to Blake as their uncle in informal settings. Officially, the relationship between the old housekeeper and the Edward siblings is very harmonious.

Lovely Dehua had always thought that the old baron had told his brother and sister to respect the old butler Blake because the old butler had participated in the war with him in the Demon Calamity back then, and it was a close comrade-in-arms. But I never expected that the old butler turned out to be a hidden knight.

Silver Rank of Glory, Great Knight! How many are there in the whole of Wales?

Edward was already curious.

He knew that after the old baron's death, the old butler followed the old baron's will and went to the southern slope to fetch a mysterious relic that he had hidden during his lifetime.

What is it that makes an old baron feel more important than his own descendants inheriting the title?

The secret guarded by the two great knights, how amazing should this be?!

Edward felt that the Hufflepuff family might not be as simple as he had seen when he first arrived.

"Young Master Edward, have you advanced?"

Feeling the familiar aura that appeared in front of him, the silver glow on the old butler Blake couldn't help but begin to weaken, and slowly entered his body.

"Of course!"

"Uncle Black, I'm a full-fledged mage now."

Edward snapped his fingers, the Alice ring in his right hand trembled slightly, and orange flames rose violently in front of him.

No magic wand, no wand casting, is one of the signs of official mage rank.

"Bronsky, put away your muscles!"

I don't know if it was the after-effects of the mental shock caused by Edward's mental impact in the Houston River, Bronsky is now less and less capable of the special forces elite back then.

Bronski scratched the back of his head with his right hand and said honestly, "Yes, boss! ”

In an instant, a naked man in panties appeared on the street.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Who is this powerful bloodline warrior?"

"And what happened to the soldiers of the garrison?"

The old butler was still a little confused.

"Ahh

A crisp scream rang out, interrupting Edward, who was about to explain.

Long brown hair, wearing a delicate lady's dress, Lily appeared on the castle wall where the old butler and Bronsky were fighting, followed by a small group of castle guards.

"Lord Edward! What happened to you? Hurt? ”

Lily's big eyes flashed with horror, and she didn't care about the shyness that came out of her pink cheeks, and she looked around Edward almost with her hands and feet, scrutinizing it carefully.

Seeing that Lily pounced on Edward anxiously, but turned a blind eye to himself on the side, the old butler Blake shook his head with a wry smile, what a big woman.

"Ahh

"Daddy Black, are you alright?"

After almost making sure that Edward was not injured, Lily saw the old butler father who had been ignored on the side.

She blushed and asked in a soft voice.

"Lord Black."

Walter, who had only arrived in a hurry, dispersed the castle guards who had gathered around.

"What just happened!"

"I'll tell you."

・・・・・・

"Alas, I really didn't expect that it would be Ferex who carried out the rebellion."

Blay Changke sighed.

Obviously, the old butler was also very sad and regretful about Ferex's rebellion.

"Yes, this time thanks to Master Edward's follower, Mr. Bronsky."

Thinking of the previous scene, Walter was also afraid for a while, and his and Cassiso's arrangement was not useful at all.

Edward on the side was hurriedly pacifying, and he had just heard that there was a dangerous rebellion in the territory and was frightened by the big Lori.

His heart was full of relief, although he was very surprised that Edward suddenly recruited a silver-level powerhouse, but Edward didn't say it, and he wouldn't take the initiative to ask, in Wales, which nobleman didn't have a secret?

The sunset in the sky with the sunset is not as dazzling as the scorching sun at noon.

In the soft glow, Blake straightened up.

Sir, did you see that? Master Edward has also grown up.

・・・・・・

The evening sky was already gray.

The government hall of the Baron's Castle is still brightly lit.

Illuminated by the bright azure magic lamp, Edward sat at the chief of the large obsidian round table in the government hall.

Brian, the old butler, and Lily, the valet stood behind him with serious expressions.

"Your Excellency Edward, although it has been attacked by dark magic potions, there are no casualties after all, and the emotions of the people in the city have been calmed."

Silver Furn Ralph stood up, the Chief Administrator of the Realm, who had served the Hufflepuff family for nearly 20 years, and Edward had grown up almost with his own eyes.

This time, Edward survived the crisis of a rebellion, which made him feel particularly gratified.

"As for the other losses, except for your martial arts arena and the inner walls of the castle, which need to be repaired by craftsmen, the others are almost nothing."

"I see, Mr. Fern." Edward nodded, he still had a lot of respect for this loyal political officer.

"We're here to help, Lord Edward."

Frieje stroked his chest and saluted, and sat back in his place.

The crowd in front of Edward sat in two rows around the large round table. On the left are territorial powerhouses such as Cassiso and Bronsky, and various military chiefs, while on the right, there are civilian officials such as Fern Ralph.

"So." Edward turned his head.

"Cassiso! Have our soldiers recovered? ”

"Yes, Lord Edward, except for some soldiers whose muscles were accidentally strained when they first recovered, most of them have basically regained their combat effectiveness."

Cassiso's loud voice sounded in the government hall.

"Now that they've all recovered." Edward paused and said, "The envoys of the kingdom and the verifiers of the noble council will arrive the day after tomorrow. Everyone, everything that should be prepared needs to be prepared in advance. ”

"Bronsky, you and Cassiso are together, familiarize yourself with the environment of the territory." ”

Clearly, Edward did not give superfluous and naΓ―ve orders, as other nobles who suddenly succeeded to the throne. For the current situation, he already had a draft in his heart, and the reasonable and skillful arrangement made everyone's worries disappear.

"Yes, Lord Edward.

Everyone said in unison.

"Poof! Burst! Burst! ”

Edward was about to end the meeting.

Outside the window, the sound of birds flapping their wings could be heard far and near.

A dark gray owl flew to the window of the conference room, where it kept pecking at the wooden window with its beak.

"Boy Edward! Open the door! Edward the Kid! Open the door! ”

A funny voice sounded outside the window.

Hearing the familiar voice from this memory, Edward smiled bitterly.

It was a good finishing meeting, but he didn't expect that in the end, his sister Helga Hufflepuff's big-mouthed demon pet, the lower level of the wind system, the owl Bruce broke the serious atmosphere. (Lower Monster = Bronze, Medium = Silver, Upper = Gold)

However, the preparations are almost all laid out.

"Alright, let's dismiss." Edward said helplessly.

Watching the crowd walk out of the government hall, Edward turned to Lily and said, "Lily, go get a piece of bread for our Lord Bruce." ”

He himself walked to the front of the wall and opened the wooden window.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sudden opening of the door caused Bruce the owl to peck through the mouth, and Pu flapped his wings and lunged towards Edward.

Seeing that Edward was a little unable to dodge, he didn't wait for Edward to use his mental power.

Just like when he stood behind the old baron, Blake, the old butler who was also standing behind Edward at this time, flashed with a trace of silver light.

Poof!

The air in front of Bruce the owl, blessed by the fighting spirit, was like an iron wall, bouncing him away and startling the feathers in the sky.

"What is this?" Bruce, who was flying in the air, finally stabilized his figure.

"Beard! How long will it take for you to become a Silver Knight? ”

Bruce asked in a surprised voice.

"I say, Master Bruce, tell me what message my sister brought me!"

Edward didn't want to waste time.

"Alright, boy Edward, you wait."

Hearing Edward take the initiative to call himself an honorific title, and remembering his master's anxious command, Bruce honestly covered the bird's head with his right wing.

After brewing for a while, he spread his wings, and by this time the voice he made had changed to a gentle female voice.

It's a pity that the voice is gentle, but the content is not gentle at all.

"Oh hehehe! My dear brother, the old man is dead! It's so good that no one forces me to go to this idiot aristocratic ball anymore. ”

Oh, it's still the same as before, not a lady at all. Edward covered his face, but luckily there were no outsiders here.

"I've used a new magic item, and my followers, and it's coming tomorrow. When the time comes, I think you should have a welcome barbecue banquet for your beautiful and elegant sister by the sea. What do you think? ”

"Well, since you don't speak, it's decided! Just know you're going to agree. My dear little Edward! ”

"We'll see you tomorrow, then!"

I want to speak, too, but can you hear me now!!

A barbecue by the sea? If you want to avenge the old baron, just say it, what is this called? Oh, Edward suddenly remembered a word from the Celestial Empire plane, "tsundere".

Edward wiped a cold sweat from his head.

The old butler behind him was also a little embarrassed.

"Young Master Edward, Miss, you're still so energetic."

"Hahaha! Yes, by the way, let's discuss the arrangements for the welcome of the Kingdom Messenger! ”

Edward quickly changed the subject.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Originally, I thought it was Lily, who brought bread, but I didn't expect it to be the dark mage Rasmussen.

"Is there a result?"

Rasmussen looked warily at the old butler behind Edward and the owl Bruce opposite.

He has been busy analyzing the memories of Ferex's soul, and he still doesn't know much about the relationship between the old butler, Bruce and Edward.

"It doesn't matter, they're all trustworthy."

Edward dispelled his concerns.

"Okay!" Rasmussen hesitated, but trusted Edward's judgment.

"Lord Old Baron, in the trench of the fish-man tribe that I was crusading, I found it..."
