Chapter 09: The Fifth Squad (6)

"You want to be a knight?" Alvin was stunned for a moment.

"Of course, why not?" said Matthew, pretending to exclaim, "Didn't our dream when we were children to become knights and follow the captains? Would you like to introduce me as a knight?"

With that, his eyes widened and he looked at Alvin meaningfully.

Cardina's gaze kept going back and forth between the two.

After thinking about it, Matthew added, "Of course, if you've forgotten your original vow, then I'm not saying it." ”

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Alvin hurriedly called out to him.

At this moment, Matthew's back was to Alwin, but Cardina, who was standing on the side, saw the smile on the corner of his mouth.

Cardina's eyes widened, and she leaned over to Alwin and whispered, "Ignore him......"

However, it was as if Alvin hadn't heard. He said hesitantly, "I was about to introduce you...... In fact, I'm already doing it. But I'm not sure if you'd like to be a knight with me. ”

Matthew hurriedly turned his head: "You said you're already doing this?"

"Yes. Alwyn nodded, "I went to Barr, and he turned me down." ”

"Wait, you said you approached him, and he turned you down. Does that mean you're pretty confident about introducing us as knights, all you need is our nod?"

"Yes. ”

"Then why did he refuse you?"

"Because he has to provide for his family, he can't live without a job. Alvin shrugged.

"I don't understand, isn't a knight just a job?" Matthew's eyebrows furrowed, "Let me guess...... Hmm, the kind of knight you're talking about doesn't have a territory or territory, right?"

"Yes and no. Alvin nervously explained, "But it's the real knight of the Knights of the Silver Moon, the fifth detachment of the Knights of the Silvermoon. It's our childhood dream. You ......"

After speaking, he looked at Matthew expectantly.

"Of course, it was our childhood dream. Matthew replied with a smile.

"Huh, don't you mind if you don't have a good fortune?"

"Why should you mind if you don't have a knight's dream?"

"Great!" Alwyn grabbed Matthew's hand, "Then let's do it together! You're the fourth member of our Fifth Detachment of the Knights of the Silver Moon!"

"Is it so sloppy?" Matthew was a little confused, relieved himself, and quickly changed his words, "Oh no, I mean, I'm very happy!"

"Great!" Alvin hugged Matthew, "It's late today, come to my house early tomorrow morning! Do you know where my house is?"

"There's no place in White City that I don't know. Matthew said.

......

The white moonlight shone on the white city-state.

The streets are deserted, with the only light shining through the windows on either side.

Alvin led the horse and walked excitedly.

Cardina walked behind him, both falling two meters away.

"What's wrong?" Alwyn asked, looking back.

Hesitating, Cardina said, "I don't think you should let him join, he obviously has some special purpose." ”

"But he was our partner back then. ”

"But he is not a good man at first glance, and a knight should at least be a good man, isn't he?

"He has faith, at least he had. ”

Cardina stopped talking, just continued to follow Alvin silently.

The two of them walked forward in silence for a short time, and Alvin added in a low voice, "If he really turns bad, as a friend and partner, I shouldn't give up on him, should I? I don't want to give up on anyone." In the beginning, all I had to do was get out of the house and shout, and we could all get together. It's okay to do anything together. Meddlesome? Or anything bad. But now? Everyone has taken a different path? There are people I will never see again in this life and in this life. If you can...... I really don't want to leave anyone behind for any reason. ”

"Is this friendship?" asked Cardina softly.

"I don't know how to describe it, but I think maybe so. Alvin replied with a smile.

Glancing at Elwin, Cardina smiled, finally less worried.

"Don't worry? My little princess. Since we have four of us? Soon there will be fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth people. ”

"Yes, there will definitely be! We will definitely be able to complete the formation of the fifth detachment of the Silver Moon Knights!"

On a deserted street? Cardina raised her hands and cheered.

......

All the way to the mouth of the alley of Alwin's house, they saw a knight leading a horse in the distance, standing in the doorway.

Why knights?

Because he really wears heavy knight's armor? And it's gorgeous heavy armor with gold trim? The kind that covers all faces. The war horse beside him was also covered with heavy armor.

The neighbors were looking through the window, and Elwin's father, Bud, was standing next to him and chatting with him.

Seeing Alwin and Cardina appear at the mouth of the alley, Bard hurriedly shouted, "It's here! It's finally back!"

With that, Bard was already trotting towards Alwin, "Where have you been all day?

Tear Alwin's hand away? Batla ran back with Alwin.

"Who is this?"

"Does the FernΓ‘ndez family know?"

Bud panted and "dragged" Alvin to the knight.

The knight gently took off his helmet? He showed a flowing shawl blonde hair and an extremely handsome face.

"Hello, Squad Leader. I'm George Fernandez. Son of the Duke of FernΓ‘ndez. Specially came to apply for the knights of the fifth detachment of the Silver Moon Knights? I think you might need me. ”

Looking at each other, Alwin's eyes widened slightly.

The current Duke of FernΓ‘ndez may not be much of an impression to everyone. This is normal, after all, he has never appeared. But everyone in the ex must be a little impressed.

The Lion King led the army to fight Gray, was harassed twenty-four hours a day, and was the last one to suffer a stroke. That's right, it's him!

Hesitating, Alvin asked in a low voice, "The Fernandez family, you seem to have fought against the Silver Moon Knights. ”

"Yes. George sighed softly: "Not only that, my grandfather also died in that war. Or to be precise, he suffered a stroke in that war and died of illness after that. ”

"Aren't you supposed to hate the Knights of the Silver Moon?"

"Why should you hate it? It's a struggle for power, and no one forced my grandfather to go to war. If you want to win, you have to be prepared to lose. If you hate it because of this, wouldn't it be too ungraceful?"

"Uh......" This statement, Alvin was speechless for a while.

......

Once inside, Bud quickly turned on all the lights and hurriedly brewed four cups of tea and put them on the table. Then he smiled and sat down at the table.

He also whispered to Alwin: "Do you know how big the Fernandez family's weapons business is? He is the heir of the Fernandez family, if we can take the ...... That's pretty awesome. ”

Alvin glanced helplessly at his excited father, then turned his face sideways and asked softly, "You...... How did you know I was forming the Fifth Detachment of the Knights of the Silver Moon?"

"Intelligence. George replied with only two words.

"Intelligence? You have also planted people in White City?"

"Of course, this is normal. If you've ever managed a territory, you know that all the places that might be of interest to you have to be staffed, not to mention that White City is right next to our family's territory. It doesn't cost much, and it only takes a really useful piece of information to make up for all the investment. Just like this time, I rushed over as soon as I got the news. ”

With that, George looked at Alvin quietly.

His eyes give a very peaceful feeling, but there is a hidden sharpness in them.

I don't know if he really attaches great importance to this matter, or if he just does it on a daily basis. The first sense he gave Elwin was unlike any knight Alwyn had ever seen before.

He stands very straight, like a guard. The sitting posture is also very upright. Every move is meticulous. That gaze was even more determined, with almost no flickering.

This...... It's not like a villain's offspring. Shouldn't the descendants of villains in general stories also be villains? Even if you don't hate it when you look at it, at least you should make a lot of noise when you appear for the first time.

Alvin admired this man a little.

Taking a deep breath, Alwyn whispered, "Are you sure you want to join us? ”

"If I'm not sure I want to join, how can I come here?" said George seriously, "I didn't even bring an entourage with me, because their horses couldn't keep up with me. I wanted to be one of the first few to join Team Five, but hopefully it wasn't too late. May I ask you, how many people are there in the fifth detachment now?"

"Four. Me, my father, Cardina, Matthew. There are only four in total. ”

"Very well, do you mind if I am the fifth person, if I am selected from among the humans, I think my conditions should be good. ”

Looking at George, who looked determined, Alvin hesitated.

Seeing this, George added: "If you can't make a decision now, it's okay, I'll stay here." You need a little time to get to know me, and that's normal, after all, we've just met. ”

As he spoke, George turned his face to look at Bard and said, "Mr. Bud, do you have any extra room in your house?"

"Uh......" Bard was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Simon has one, I have one, Elwin has one, and Cardina has one." There are two rooms left, which are big enough, but I use them as warehouses. ”

With a "bang", George put the money bag on the table: "Please rent another warehouse and give me those two rooms." ”

"You want both?"

"Yes, two, my butler and his retinue should be there tomorrow morning. He also needed a room. ”

Trembling slightly, Bard picked up the money bag full of gold coins in his hand, and then looked back and forth between Alvin and George.

Looking at Alwin, George asked seriously, "Is that okay?" ”

"But ......" coughed dryly twice, and Alvin whispered, "Yes." ”

"Okay, that's troublesome Mr. Bud. George turned his face sideways and nodded solemnly at Bud, "I'm going to stay tonight, so if you can, please clean up now." Or ask a few neighbors to clean up and give them a small gratuity. ”

"No problem! I'll do it now!" Bard walked away happily, holding his purse.

Looking at George, Alvin sighed helplessly.

......

In the middle of the night, Alwin's house was bustling.

Elwin's father, Bard, hired six people to move the weapons and equipment that had been placed in the house in large quantities, and piled them directly at the door, and disposed of them tomorrow.

After all, George gave much more money than the value of these weapons and equipment.

Then, Bud knocked on the door of the mattress seller and prepared a new mattress for George.

Not only that, but there were all kinds of other supplies, and even the furnishings in the room Bard helped to think about it.

A spacious, comfortable room was transformed into a spacious, comfortable room.

......

I have to say that dreams can be the same, but the starting point for everyone to pursue their dreams is completely different.

Put George with his buddies......

On the one hand, he gave up his dream because of the embarrassment of life, and on the other hand, he took out a lot of money and smashed a road.

Can the fifth detachment of the Silver Moon Knights give him anything?

Maybe it's only a dream, anyway, according to Gray's usual style, wealth has never been related to the Silver Moon Knights. Alvin didn't want to get on the sidelines, he didn't want his dream to spoil.

But you have to admit that when you ask no one to pursue wealth, you may only attract people who have wealth themselves.

That night, Alvin opened his notebook and wrote the following lines on it:

"On the 26th day of the eighth month of the seventh year of the Silver Moon, the third day of the establishment of the fifth detachment of the Knights of the Silver Moon began. Today, we welcome our fourth member. Maybe it's fifth, after all, I really don't know George's purpose, but it's not easy to ask. We're just getting to know each other.

I have some scruples about Matthew, and I don't know what the final result will be. Let's hope he can finally become a member of the fifth team. If I could, I would like to have at least one of my original buddies in the fifth detachment. Although my initial idea was to recruit all my buddies, it doesn't seem very possible now.

As for George, he was undoubtedly a knight trained as an orthodox knight and the only true knight on a secular level in the house. Have enough wealth, but also own territory. Although he is reluctant to accept it, it must be admitted that he is the one who is most likely to go far on this road.

Maybe I should make money from him and use it to support my other partners?

Hehehehe, I can only think about it. The thought alone already made me feel like I was starting to get out of my track. The fifth detachment of the Knights of the Silver Moon shouldn't be like this.

Good night, my Captain Gray. If you are still somewhere in this world, please wait for me. Someday, I will come to you. Your most loyal follower – Alvin Schmidt. ”
