"Master Ben Ben Ben is here?"

Lady Lelia stood up and said in surprise, "Invite him in...... No, no, I personally went to greet the master. ”

"I'm out of company for a while. Lelia smiled apologetically at Victor and Tennis, and hurried out of the living room with her heels on.

When the sound of his heels tapping on the floor faded away, Baron Chartain put down his silver glass, leaned back in his chair, shook his head and sighed, "Women, you can't resist the temptation of jewelry. As he spoke, he put on a look of "men know everything", but his voice was even lower than when he had just spoken.

If you are afraid of your wife, you are afraid of your wife, pretending to be the head of the family...... Victor despises his cheap dad fiercely in his heart.

Tenis, however, nodded approvingly, "My wife waited for Master Ben Ben Ben for a month to customize a set of jewelry. She was like this when the master came to visit...... Glad. ”

Ben Benjamin is one of the leading painters, sculptors and jewellery designers of our time. His pioneering method of jewellery engraving combines the best of carving techniques and gemstone cutting, and his jewellery creations are memorable in a way that perfectly matches the temperament of the wearer.

With his skill, Ben Benjamin, who came from a family of ordinary vassals, won the favor of the royal family of Gambis, was canonized as a lord, and became the chief jeweler of the court.

Not only did Queen Catherine and Princess Roland favour Ben Benjamin's jewelry, but even the shield shoulder pins of the Marquis de Golons and Sylvia's rose tiara were his most iconic creations.

The royal nobles and lords of the Gambis took pride in inviting Ben Benjamin to tailor their jewelry. But Ben Benjamin could only make a set of jewels in three months at the earliest, and in the face of so many aristocrats, he could only decline the gracious invitation of most people.

This only makes Ben Benjamin even hotter.

Although Ben Benjamin didn't have time to meet everyone's bespoke demands, the inferior nobles still flocked to him. Once they had collected a high-quality rare gemstone, they would write Ben Benjamin a warm invitation letter with a document from a gemmologist asking him to carve an heirloom jewel for them.

The price of raw gemstone ore is limited higher than that of metal ore, and after being carved by Master Jieming, the value immediately increases by a hundredfold and a thousand times.

If Baron Shatahn's house has such valuable jewels, he can take them out and show off when he is fine, use them to drill camp when he is in trouble, and cash in when he is down.

This is much more interesting and elegant than building a reservoir and raising wild boars. No wonder Lady Lylia was as dizzy as if she had been hit in the head by a pie in the sky when she heard that Master Ben Ben Ben had come to her door.

However, Baron Shatarn can only be ranked at the bottom of the royal nobility, and with their status and fame, Ben Ben is not at all...... Mario became the Knight of the Dragon, and the jeweller, the master jeweler, came to design the jewels for the House of Chartaon in front of me...... I'd like to see what the royal family wants to do.

Victor was suspicious, but on the surface he remained silent. Leaning back in his soft sofa chair, he chatted with Turnis and Baron Shatain.

Not long after, Lelia returned to the living room with a well-dressed and energetic old man, and she smiled and said to Viscount Ternis, "Your Excellency Ludwigsi, Master Benedict is here to find you. ”

Although Lady Lelia smiled amiably, Victor noticed a subtle hint of disappointment in her eyes.

Tenis was stunned for a moment, then quickly stood up and said, "Master Ben Ben Ben, what can I serve?"

"I'm sorry to disturb your Excellency's Yaxing. I do have something to trouble Lord Ludwigsi. Ben Benjamin bowed slightly, he turned his gaze to the side, and said in surprise: "Victor...... No, Lord Randall, you're here too?"

Ben Benjamin and Victor had known each other for a long time, having taught the little baron painting and carving at the Kite Castle. When Victor and Sophia were married, he also designed jewelry for the two.

Victor used a ring designed by Ben Benjamin to blackmail 50,000 gold soles from Sylvia's start-up capital. He was proud of it. It was much later that Victor realized that Sylvia seemed to her at the time. This is even more true now.

Today, that ring is the only one Sylvia wears.

Thinking of his past childishness and love for Sylvia, Victor couldn't help but smile, and he got up and greeted, "Teacher Benjamin, long time no see." Baron and Madame Shataen are my parents. ”

"It's disrespectful. Ben Jerry bowed his head to the master, "Looks like I've disturbed your party." ”

"Master, you are too polite. We're just chatting too. Baron Chartain smiled and invited, "You might as well sit down and have a drink...... This is a great wine from Master Ludwigsi. ”

"Thirty years old d'ême...... Then you're welcome. Ben Benjamin sniffed the air in the room lightly and said with a smile.

Madame Lylia poured Ben Ben Dimin with a glass before Viscount Ternes asked, "Master, have you come to me personally for any matter, and if there is anything inconvenient, I may first say goodbye to the master here." ”

"Nothing was inconvenient. Ben Benjamin put down his glass and smiled heartily, "I'd like to rent a floor at the Blue Amber Inn." ”

"Do you have relatives or friends who want to stay?"

"No! Ben Benjamin put away his smile and said earnestly.

"Your teacher?" Tenis looked at Master Benjamin curiously and in surprise.

The Master Jeweler is almost 70 years old. As a teenager, he worked for a time as an apprentice under an old jeweller, who was mediocre and has long since passed away. Everyone thought that Ben Benjamin's achievements were mainly due to his talent and perseverance, who would have thought that he actually had a teacher.

Could it be that his teachers are helping to design the jewelry?

Ben is insightful of the mentality of the crowd, explaining: "My teacher didn't know how to design jewelry, he was a stonemason for the royal family. Although the teacher's reputation is not obvious, I am sure that he is the most outstanding master carver today. I have been learning carving from my teacher for 24 years, and I still don't have half of his skills. ”

Stonemasons of the Kite Fort......

The Baroness and Viscount Ternes were in awe, and Victor showed great curiosity, and he asked, "The man who can be admired by Master Ben Ben Ben Ben must be a great master...... I've lived in the Kite Castle for a while, but I've never heard of this master's reputation?"

Ben Benjamin laughs: "My teacher used to be the grave keeper of the kite, and he erected statues of members of the royal family. Before you entered the kite castle, he had been canonized as a court baron by the former king, and he had returned to the countryside to retire. This time, His Majesty August was crowned king, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs specially recalled the teacher and asked him to erect a statue of the new king. After a pause, he shook his head again and sighed: "The teacher is too old, and this is probably the last time he will sculpt." ”

"Master, I didn't mean to offend you. ”

Viscount Turnis said indignantly: "How can the Ministry of Internal Affairs do things so absurdly! His Majesty the King is not yet 13 years old, how can there be any reason to erect a statue for a young man!"

After the death of the Golden Knight and the Pinnacle Silver Knight, their bodies will soon disintegrate into the Void Element, returning to the origin of the world, leaving no remains. However, the vast majority of high-ranking knights have the belief of protecting the family, and even if they fall, they want to pass on the belief of protecting the family. Their dedication to the family was reflected in the importance attached to the statues and the formation of a burial system unique to the knightly family.

Therefore, the large family erected a statue of the guardian knight during his lifetime, and after his death, the statue was hidden in the family cemetery for future generations to see.

Few craftsmen have been able to bring the beliefs, spirits, feelings, and qualities of a high-ranking knight to life in cold stone. Ben Benjamin's teacher was clearly such a figure, and his importance to the Auguste family was unquestionable.

But even if his skills are unmatched, Edward August was only 12 years old. When the little king achieves extraordinary achievements and makes immortal contributions to the family, he will definitely smash the statue of the young man. Later generations should not be allowed to think that Edward Auguste had a mediocre life, and the only bright spot was his accession to the throne at the age of 12.

It is the duty of the vassals to preserve the reputation of the sovereign.

Tenis angrily rebuked the House of the Interior, and Baron Chartain kept his face calm and did not speak.

Ben Benjamin laughed and said, "This is where the teacher's skill is extraordinary, and he erected a coming-of-age portrait for His Majesty." ”

"How is this possible?!" exclaimed Viscount Turnis in disbelief.

"The impossible is extraordinary," says Ben Ben proudly, "The teacher has carved countless portraits in his lifetime. He erected three statues for the first king, one was carved by His Majesty Lane when he was 12 years old, one was the silver rank of His Majesty's achievement, and the other was His Majesty's stepping into the pinnacle realm. In the end, His Majesty Lane chose the coming-of-age portrait that the teacher had carved when he was 12 years old......" He said with a sigh of longing and embarrassment, "The skill of the teacher is alive...... He said that I had too many distractions and would never be able to reach his level in my whole life. ”

"Viscount Turnis. My teacher was withdrawn, he didn't want to live in a kite castle, and he didn't want to live in my house. The environment of the Blue Amber Hotel is quite quiet, and he only stays here for one night. If you don't have any empty floors, I'll ask at one of the other manor inns. Ben said with a flat expression. Ternis's questioning made the jeweler very unhappy.

"This ......"

Tenis's head suddenly grew. Blue Amber really didn't have a room anymore, but he didn't want to offend Ben Ben Ben, who was well-connected. As long as the master refuses to make jewelry for Lyanna from now on, he will not be able to eat and walk around.

The most terrifying thing is that Ben Benjamin's teacher was able to erect a statue of King Edward, indicating that he was an important member of the royal family. If Ben Benjamin complains in front of the weird-tempered old fellow, he really can't hold it back.

Thinking of this, Tenis wanted to slap himself twice.

Victor had been listening to Ben Benjamin and Tenis's heartbeats, and they were not acting like a fake.

Knights who are physically and mentally united can control the rate of their heartbeats, but Ben Ben and Tenis are just ordinary people. Since Ben Benjamin's trip was not to make jewellery for the Baroness, Victor was almost certain that his visit was not arranged by the Kite Castle, but rather a coincidence.

According to Tournans, Ben Jemín's teacher should belong to the craftsman who ignites the fire of the heart.

Ku Ding solves the cow, and his skills are amazing. How can such a character not be recognized?

Victor's fire of gossip was blazing, so he got up and said, "Master, what is your teacher called?"

"Baron Catol Benjamin, the royal family's special surname for exceptional talent. ”

Victor bowed his head and said, "Master, in this case, I think any hotel is full. My parents have plenty of rooms here, so why don't you ask Baron Benjamin to come up and sit down, and if he's satisfied, we can go back to the Marquis's Court." ”

"Yes, we are willing to serve Master Benjamin. Baron Chartain said immediately. He reacted faster this time than his wife.

"Thanks to their generosity, this room on the Blue Amber floor will henceforth forever belong to the Baroness of Wimbleton. Tenis also hastened to make a statement.

Ben Benjamin may not care about the courtesies of Viscount Turnis and Baron Chartain, but he can't ignore Viscount Randall's retention. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, "I'll ask the teacher's opinion." ”

"Master, I'll go with you. Lady Lelia smiled and caught up with Ben Benjamin. Tenis followed with a shy face

After a long time, Ben Benjamin helped an old man dressed plainly dressed and with a white beard into the living room, followed by four servants with strong bodies and calm temperaments.

"Baron Wimbledon, thank you for taking me in, old man. I'll only stay one night and prepare a room for my guards. You don't have to move out. The old man said with a smile, and then turned back and instructed the servant, "You find a secluded room, settle your luggage, and I will talk here with a few adults." ”

"Yes. The four guards, dressed as servants, bowed slightly, and left the living room with the old man's luggage.

Baron de Château said, "Baron Benjamin, it is our pleasure to have you here. How can I let you live in a remote room, I have sent someone to clean up the master bedroom. ”

Arcane Warrior Guard?...... It is in line with the identity of the royal tomb keeper...... Victor thought secretly, he withdrew his gaze, and used the elemental vision to check the old man's elemental attributes.

Physique 7, Spiritual 12, Perception 5, Life 4...... Well, it's really an old stonemason who ignites the fire of the heart, and I'm afraid he won't live for 15 years.

Here, Catol declined the Chartain's kindness. He sat down on the couch and looked at Victor with interest with cloudy old eyes.

"You're Viscount Victor Wyndall, I've heard Roland and Edward mention you. The old stonemason said with a smile.

Victor chuckled and said, "Master Benjamin, it's the first time I've seen you today, but I have a very familiar feeling. ”

The old stonemason smiled disapprerovingly, "This shows that you have a talent for carving. I have many stone carvings in the kite, and they are like my children, leaving my mark. Ben, a stupid guy, has been watching it for twenty years and hasn't been able to see the fame. ”

"Master Randall is really talented, and he is always very quick to learn carving and painting. Ben Benjamin said ashamedly.

And that's the relationship?

Tenis threw himself to the ground with Victor's admiration, and hurriedly offered his Dom wine, "My lord, would you like a drink?"

"Thanks, I don't drink a bit. The old stonemason waved his hand, opened his mouth, and pointed to his eyes, "I don't have a few teeth anymore, and I can't see clearly, only these hands are still stable." Wine will make me lose the last pride, let me take it to the grave. ”

Turnis put down the bottle in disdain. Victor changed the subject and said, "Master, I lived in Kite Castle when I was a child. During the day, I didn't think much of a sword statue when I saw the statues of samurai wielding swords, but once at night, I ran outside the house, and the statues seemed to be real samurai guards, and I was so frightened that I shrank back into my room. I'm really impressed with your skills. ”

The old stonemason nodded and said, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess said that you are of elven blood and have a natural intuition for art. Noble talents should not be wasted on carving and painting, though, and you have a more important mission, like the knights of the Augustian family. I am only a skilled stonemason, and it is my great honor to be able to carve stone statues for noble knights, and it is also the reason for my existence. ”

"I have carved a stone statue for His Majesty Manfried Auguste, I have had to carve a stone statue for Ryan August, and His Highness Roland, His Highness Williams, His Majesty Edward...... I have carved stone statues of many great knights in my life, but I have never carved an elf. The old baron Catol paused, then smiled again: "Victor, do you want me to carve a statue of the ancestors of the Randall family as well?" ”

The knight lord attaches great importance to his own cemetery statue, compared to the ancient emperors of China who built a mausoleum for themselves, it is much more economical for the knight to erect a statue before his death. But starting to arrange the aftermath early, Victor felt unlucky no matter how he thought about it.

He hesitated for a moment and politely refused, "Master, I'm not an elf. ”

"It's okay, I can sculpt you into a noble elf. ”

"I'm afraid I don't have time to ......"

"It won't take long. The old stonemason shook his head and sighed, "Let me touch your face and arms a little." His Majesty Edward didn't have that much time to stand there and figure it out for me. I just touched his hands and face and carved out what he would look like as an adult. Alas, my eyes are no longer good, or I would have looked at them. ”

Lady Lelia encouraged beside her, "Victor, this is a rare opportunity, and you must not live up to the Baron's good intentions." ”

Victor said kindly: "Okay then...... But how much should I pay you, and where should I go to get the statue?"

"Don't be paid. The old stonemason shook his head and said happily: "His Royal Highness Roland said that you will become in the future, what is that...... The second Juggernaut. I can carve a stone statue of a great man like you, and that's my reward. I'll go back to the countryside in Calle tomorrow, and when the stone statue is finished, I'll send it directly to Randall, what do you think?"

"Then there's Your Excellency Law. ”

Victor shifted his position. The old stonemason reached out and gently stroked his forehead, eyebrow bones, nose bridge, and cheeks, touched his arms and fingers, and nodded, "It's okay." ”

"My lord is really a miracle!" Tenis seemed to be even happier than Victor, and he said with a smile, "It's getting late, so I'll have someone prepare a dinner party to welcome the two masters to the Blue Amber Hotel." ”

Victor stood up and said, "I'm sorry, I asked Lady Sylvia to dinner. Father, mother, and all of you are gone. These days, I'll ask Nelson to come over and teach my brother how to practice martial arts. I'll take my leave first, so I don't have to send it. With that, he gave the old stonemason a deep look, and turned to leave the living room.

Gru and Shak were in the hallway, and when they saw their master, they followed. Victor put on his cloak and hood and walked unhurriedly to the door of the hotel.

His heart was both amazed and delighted.

Shockingly, when the old stonemason had just touched him, the purple gold coin on his chest was slightly hot. Although the temperature change of the purple gold coin is subtle, it cannot be hidden from X-3's detection.

The grave keeper of House Augustus is a wizard!

Happily, the amulet that Father Miller said really worked. There is a purple gold coin amulet, don't try to hurt him with any witchcraft.

Otherwise, how dare he teach Clement a lesson? What does it mean that my lord is not my lord, and my lord is not my lord? What does the Augustus family want to do when they send a wizard over? Why did the queen take the little baron's first time? Carved into a noble elf...... The second Juggernaut?

Countless thoughts intertwined into a mess that made Victor's head swell. Before going out, he happened to bump into a group of people entering the hotel, so he took the initiative to step aside. The man at the head first saluted with his chin, and as if he saw the peerless face under the hood, he suddenly came over again and said earnestly: "This beautiful young lady, I am ......"

"Your Excellency, you're getting too close!" the one-eyed dragon grew forward, straddling in front of the man.

With a "whew", Gru's stout body flew upside down and slammed into the floor a few meters away.

Victor woke up suddenly, only to see one of the guards next to the man withdraw his arm and say lightly, "You're too close." ”
