Chapter 38: "Friends"

The soft queen bed made Xiuin's sleep very comfortable, and after a pleasant night's sleep, a new day began.

The rooms are the height of a two-story building in the castle, and in the mild morning sunshine, Huin overlooks half of the Earl's Castle from the window.

"It's like a fortress on its own!" said Shuin's heart with indescribable envy, and it would be a wonderful thing to be able to enjoy a lifetime in such a castle.

Of course, if you want to live in a big castle, you have to have your own territory first, and then it's not bad to build one!

I'm afraid this is the second time Xiu Yin has the idea of becoming a lord, and having his own territory is what a man in this world should fight for.

However, in this era of peace, it is extremely difficult to obtain territory by virtue of meritorious deeds, because almost every inch of land in this period has an owner, so it sounds much simpler to be able to directly inherit a piece of land, but before that, Xiu Yin knew that he had an opponent to defeat, that is, Lin Ke.

As Xiu Yin was thinking, there was a soft knock on the door, "My lord, breakfast is ready!" was Gulis's voice.

Breakfast is a snack with milk, and Xiuin's breakfast in this world is really hard to swallow, and many things taste like hard bread without filling, but the purest milk can still be drunk a few more glasses, and there will be absolutely no additives.

After breakfast, Huin could hear the bustle outside.

"It seems that there are many people in the Count's castle. ”

While Xiu Yin was thinking that the castle must be full of people now, the maid Gulis gently slammed the door outside and said, "Lord Baron, the Count pleases." ”

Xiuke looked in the mirror and sorted out his appearance, "Xiuyin, I've gone to see Lord Earl, I don't know what kind of trick game Lord Earl will come up with this year, in short, it's up to you next." ”

"Don't worry, father, I have been fighting here alone for the past two months. ”

Shuk patted Xiu Yin on the shoulder to express encouragement, he didn't say anything superfluous, I don't know when Xiu Ke found that he actually believed in Xiu Cause, and of course Xiu Ke attributed this reason to the fact that he used to care too little about Xiu Yin.

Both of them left the room, and Shuk followed the maid to the third floor of the mansion, where the minor lords of the county had gathered, while Xiu Yin walked to the first floor.

"I'm going to see some familiar faces right away, and I hope they don't see too much of the change in me. ”

Xiu Yin thought as he walked towards the place he remembered, where he had been three times in the past six months, and it might not be a pleasant place for him.

The large arena is a major feature of the castle of the Earl of Fair.

Several of the other great lords of the Starlight Kingdom have built their own majestic and huge castles, but only Fer Fraser, the lord of the Heider Dominion, has built a large area in his fortress, paved with tens of thousands of square stones.

Several pavilions were built around the 100-meter-square arena, in which there were various weapon racks and various types of armor, and even a small amount of foreign standard equipment.

On the southern side of the arena, a grandstand was built, and while Xiu Yin and the others were playing games in the arena, the nobles of the Haider Dominion sat on it and watched the children's competition.

When I came to a familiar place, there was already a crowd of more than 100 people standing here, most of whom were peers like Xiu Yin.

And, sure enough, I met familiar people.

"Hey, it's Xiuin!" was recognized as soon as Xiuin's figure appeared near the performance venue, and his name was called.

"Xiuyin, here, here!"

This voice not only made Xiu Yin hear it clearly, but many people in the martial arts arena heard this shout, Xiu Yin shook his head slightly helplessly, that guy was still the same as before.

"Shuin? Could it be the same Xiuyin who defeated Galio two months ago?"

Immediately there were voices of surprise in the crowd.

"That's right, it's him, Huin Neumann, that red hair is very easy to remember. ”

"It's impossible, just with his small body? I can go up and knock him down with one punch, can he beat Galio?!"

"It's true, the last time you didn't come, he was the last one of the rubbish to fall down in the south. ”

"Hmph, that's okay, this time I'll take the place of Big Brother Galio and clean him up!"

......

The words that made Xiu Yin feel very annoyed kept coming into his ears, but Xiu Yin could still bear it, after all, there were many fewer words like "waste", and the few times he came in the past, the words "he" heard more were "Young Master Waste Firewood".

Xiu Yin walked up to the person who had just greeted him, a stout fellow, a whole head taller than Xiu Yin, it was hard to imagine that this height was still a minor.

His name is Charlotte, a person with developed limbs and a simple mind, and his impression of him in memory is not bad, but contrary to his more exaggerated appearance, he is a little timid, and he lost early in the last rushing game, because Charlotte who took the lead was eliminated as soon as he came up.

"Hey, Xiuin, we thought you wouldn't be in this game!" said Charlotte, scratching her head with a smirk.

Before Xiu could answer, a voice interjected.

"Charlotte, you're kidding, Xiu Yin was the last one who lasted to the end, not to mention knocking over Galio with one punch, I think you should be the first to be eliminated, you may not come!"

Squeezing Charlotte's strong physique, it was Leo who forcibly came in front of Xiuin, who served as an archer in the last charging game, but all three arrows were empty, which directly caused Charlotte to be isolated and quickly eliminated, and now he is still a guy with a hippie smile, but Xiuyin doesn't hate him, at least "he" thinks Leo is a good partner.

"So you're all here, and I'm still wandering around!"

Immediately afterwards, a slightly heroic voice came from behind Xiuyin, Xiuyin only listened to the voice, it really looked like the movement of a hero in a costume drama, and when he turned around, it was Hans.

In the spring and summer seasons, there is still some coolness, most people wear long-sleeved shirts and trousers, but Hans wears short-sleeved shoulder shirts, thick muscular arms are exposed, and a broad-bladed giant sword is stuck diagonally behind his back, which is said to be the weapon used by his father back then.

Hans was the strongest of these "little friends" of Huin, and he was also the one who stepped into the full-fledged knighthood with one foot.

"Yo, Xiuyin, long time no see, the last time you punched me, I was so cool, but I went home and practiced that action for a long time!"
