Chapter 159: A Reunion That Was Too Quiet
In the end, Sorjes returned to the Brustein family, originally he wanted to return to the Soaring Dragon, but then he got angry with Bagas and refused to leave in a fit of rage.
Why do I want to leave? This is my home, what's wrong? Why am I afraid of you? I'm afraid that you won't let me go? Okay, you won't let me go, if you have the ability, you will stay in the emperor and not go out, as long as you go on the front foot, I will kill a few nobles on the back foot and rob them of their money and then run away, if you don't believe it, try it!
After saying this, the surrounding nobles were certainly angry by this lawless arrogance, and Bargas was equally annoyed but helpless, and in the end, it was Raymond and Genevia who took turns to persuade each other, and then Sorges temporarily calmed down and stopped losing his childish temper, but that was the end of it.
Originally, a family reunion should be a happy thing, especially the reunion dinner two years apart is even more precious, but among the nine people at the table, seven of them have been in a state of fear, and the soup will accidentally overflow when they drink it with a spoon.
Before the dinner table, Bagas tried not to look at his youngest son, and focused on several of his comrades-in-arms, although these young people seemed a little restrained, but he felt very satisfied after seeing them, in his eyes, if these people can have some good cultivation environment and resources, then their achievements are more than that, but even the current strength is not inferior to those young officers of Fran.
"Huh?" Bagas paused with the knife and fork in his hand, and only then did he notice Ginevia's appearance, and before he could speak, Sonjes opened up first: "What do you see! That's my wife! You see, go to hell and go with my mother!" "Blue!" Ginevia's little foot under the table kicked Jackus hard in the calf, she had never heard Jacks mention about his mother, and every time she wanted to ask, Jackers always diverted the topic and then stopped asking.
But today, if she had guessed that the relationship between Sogers and his father had something to do with his deceased mother, Sojes would not have said such a rebellious remark as "go to hell with my mother!"
"Father, Miss Genevia just looks like her sister. Raymond interjected at the right time, diverting Bagas's attention in time.
"Hmm!" Vargas nodded, his gaze lingering on Genevia's face for a moment, before there was the illusion that his daughter was sitting next to him again, but now it was a kind of scrutiny of his daughter-in-law.
"I'm done eating, you use it slowly. โ
Sojes got up with a cold face, he didn't eat a few bites of the food in front of him, and he didn't even look at Vargas during the whole process, as if there was no one in front of him, and went to his room without looking back, leaving only a group of pirates looking at each other at the table.
The head of the regiment left, and the remaining few people were even more unnatural, and the good reception banquet was another rare reunion dinner.
About half an hour later, Raymond arrived at Sojers' room, he was the only one in the room, and after entering, Sojers was not in the mood to speak, but handed him a piece of paper with the whole process of the operation written on it.
Raymond didn't speak, just looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, he didn't expect that this matter would involve a necromancer.
"Jack, it's better not to spread the word about this matter, otherwise it will be a big problem for both you and the Fran Empire!" Raymond's expression was very serious, the development of the matter had exceeded their expectations, and even worse than the worst outcome they had expected.
"What's the trouble? Wouldn't it be the end of going directly to Alon and asking for an explanation? It doesn't matter if this is the person they sent out, but the identity of the necromancer is conclusive, by the way, her body is still on that island, and the skeleton staff she holds in her hand is no one else other than the necromancer and the dark mage, right?
"Things are not as simple as you think, we are already doing our best just to confront Fiana now, don't forget, although Fiana's comprehensive national strength is slightly worse than that of Fran, but they have the mermaid clan of the Dream Sea as an ally, and the strength of the two sides is almost equal, if you offend the Alonso Empire at this time, you should be able to imagine the consequences." โ
Sojes pursed his lips, "I don't bother to tell you these things, I don't care what happens to the Fran Empire in the future, I will leave when this fief is in hand, anyway, the empire has the 'heroic and invincible' Lord Bagas, what kind of bird are you afraid of!" deliberately accentuated the tone of the word heroic and invincible, which was not only to express disdain for Bagas, but also to ridicule those nobles of France, implying that they only dared to be arrogant to their own nobles, and there were various statements about the outside world.
I don't know if my brother scolded himself, Raymond didn't care, just got up and left, and when he walked to the door, he turned around and asked: "Jack, if the empire really wants to carry out a large-scale battle, what will you do?" "If you participate, I will choose to participate in the war, if there is Bagas involved, then, if King Billan comes to kneel down and beg me, I will not help, even if the opponent is the Fiana Empire." Without hesitation, he said this, and when he said it, his tone became fierce, and the words seemed to be squeezed out between his teeth.
The conversation between the two brothers stopped here, these two days, Sojes rarely went out, and occasionally went outside and was pestered by Genevia for a long time before going out, Sojes didn't like to go shopping, at least he didn't like to hang out in the French capital, there were too many nobles here who knew him, and many people dared to sneer at him although their status was not as good as their own, one is that Bagas is rarely at home, and the other is that these little nobles think that they have those big nobles who are equal to Vargas in the title as the backstage, so they are not afraid of death and shouting at Sogersใ
But it's okay today, .com Vargas has not left the emperor, and Sojes once cut off the head of the second son of the right prime minister, Dirian, in full view of everyone, and now no one with a little brain will joke with his own life at this time.
We are aristocrats, and we don't care about these barbarians who don't know etiquette......
The cowardly nobles made an excuse for themselves and became at ease again, Sojes guessed what they thought from the expressions they had when they looked at themselves but didn't go to talk nonsense with them, he was also happy to be idle, but that's all, if someone really dares to provoke themselves without a long eye, then don't look for a reason when they die, anyway, now Vargas is still in the imperial capital, this is a very suitable candidate for the black pot.
Well, of course, this is only done after my fiefdom has been awarded, I'm a civilized pirate!" thought to Sojes.
So, as long as he went out in the past two days, he and Genevia would be happy to wander around the various commercial streets, and he would buy everything that the girl liked with a big wave, and he was very happy when he paid for it, anyway, how much he spent, and when he went back, he asked Vargas to reimburse himself for how much, every time he saw Bagas's somewhat iron face, he would feel very happy, however, even Vargas didn't know that after Sojes did these things, he also had indescribable sadness in his heart.
