Chapter 93: The Majestic Viscount
Two days later, a convoy of seven horse-drawn carriages slowly drove into the capital of the Lampari Kingdom, Anwemar.
The convoy had just passed the gates, and at the first corner, Baron Haynas jumped out of the first carriage.
"Leslie, Xu Yi, I'll go home alone first, and I'll come back to you when I'm free. By the way, Xu Yi, maybe my father will be interested in meeting you. β
"Then I'm really honored. Xu Yi said with a smile.
Baron Hainas frowned and shook his head: "My father is ...... Forget it, since you've finally made a trip, it's good for you to see people more. Okay, that's it, I'll go first, goodbye. With that, he waved to Xu Yi and Viscount Leslie in the carriage and walked towards the street corner.
"Is he going to walk back?" Xu Yi looked at Baron Hainas Shi Shiran walking on the crowded streets, a little stunned.
"The Marquis de Toyle's palace is not far from here. Viscount Leslie explained casually, and then gave an order to the coachman, and the convoy headed back in the other direction.
As the capital of the Lampari Kingdom, Anvimar City is far from being as lively as the tiny city of Bonta, and the convoy did not travel smoothly through the city, taking half an hour to cross three streets.
"If we hadn't brought so many things, we might as well jump out of the carriage and walk straight over faster. Xu Yi lifted the curtains, glanced at the bustling crowd outside, and thought that there was a traffic jam in a big city on the earth, and he would encounter it in this world.
"No way, Anvimar is the largest city in the kingdom, and of course there are many more people than Bonta City. Besides, it's time for the Wizards' Guild certification assessment soon, and there are a lot more people in the city than usual now, so it's no wonder if it's not crowded. Viscount Leslie also looked out the window, not with an anxious look on his face, but with a smile. "When I was a kid, I used to sneak out into the street by myself, and I actually miss seeing the situation now. β
Xu Yi shrugged, thinking to himself that he couldn't resonate with Viscount Leslie like this.
The convoy was still moving slowly on the street, but fortunately, the destination was not far away, and Xu Yi was not in a hurry, relaxing and looking at the street scene outside the window.
As Viscount Leslie said, because of the proximity to the assessment of the Wizards' Guild, there were many more magicians in robes in Anweimar City, some of them were alone, some were in twos and threes, and there was even a group of young children who looked like they were no more than ten years old.
"These children should be organized by a magic academy. Viscount Leslie glanced at the group of children in uniform not far from the right front of the carriage, and then turned to look at Xu Yi, a somewhat strange smile appeared on his face. "Hey, Xu Yi, I heard that you got some kind of bursary fund in Baron Rictor's School of Magic a few days ago?
"What do you mean by deception?" Xu Yi glared at Viscount Leslie. "I have explained those conditions clearly and clearly, how can it be considered a fraud? Besides, after graduation, working in our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not a burial for them, the salary will never be less, and it can give them so much room to play, such a good thing, many people can't think of it. He pointed to the group of children outside the carriage. "Sue you, if possible, I would even like to set up the Xinfei Bursary Fund in every magic academy, so that all children who study magic know that there is a deposit of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. β
Viscount Leslie glanced at Xu Yi deeply: "Are you planning to start with these children and change the views of the magicians?"
"Do you see that?" Xu Yi smiled, his expression a little helpless. "I can't help it, it's too hard to change the minds of adult magicians, I can only think long-term. β
"It's not as hard as you think. Viscount Leslie mused. "Come to think of it, if you can convince Grand Magician Camilla, you can obviously convince other magicians as well. To put it bluntly, as long as you can give them enough benefits, it is by no means impossible to change their minds. Of course, if you want to change the mind of the entire Wizards' Guild...... With your current strength, I'm afraid it's not realistic. β
Xu Yi sighed: "Lord Viscount, you are talking nonsense. β
Viscount Leslie laughed: "I don't interfere in the management decisions of the Chamber of Commerce anyway, so I'm just talking about my thoughts, and it's your own business how to listen to it." β
Xu Yi glanced at Viscount Leslie angrily, and was about to refute him, when a scream and several exclamations suddenly sounded in front of the carriage, interrupting him.
Following the prestige, I saw that the front of the carriage suddenly became vacant, and a man in a dirty black robe rolled around a few times, just in front of the carriage.
If it weren't for the fact that the coachman reacted quickly enough to pull the horse, I am afraid that he would have been trampled on by the horse's hooves by now.
Three more richly dressed young men came out of the crowd, and after glancing at the man on the ground, the young man in the middle kicked the man in the chest fiercely, and scolded in his mouth: "I told you not to block the way of Young Master Ben, but you still dare not listen? Do you say that you owe a beating?"
As he spoke, the young man kicked the man again and again.
The man didn't know if he didn't dare to resist, or if he didn't have the strength to resist at all, although every kick that hurt him so much that he couldn't help but arch his body, but he just snorted and didn't do anything else at all.
Xu Yi frowned, glanced at the three young men, and then at the person on the ground, hesitating in his heart.
This situation made him feel a little unbearable, but these three young men were richly dressed, and they dared to behave so arrogantly on the streets of Anweimar City, for fear that they might be the children of some nobles, and if they made rash moves, they might get into trouble.
While Xu Yi was hesitating, two other young men joined in the beating.
The three of them started together, counting their feet, and the man on the ground suddenly had a throat, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, all of which was sprinkled on the stone slabs on the road, which looked shocking.
There was a burst of exclamations from the crowd of onlookers, apparently frightened as well. Some people also showed hesitation, but no one stood up, obviously having the same scruples as Xu Yi.
However, Xu Yi couldn't help it now, and as soon as his body moved, he was ready to jump out of the carriage.
But as soon as he got up, Viscount Leslie grabbed him.
"Xu Yi, do you want to take care of this matter?" asked Viscount Leslie.
Xu Yi glanced at him and said coldly: "Lord Viscount, maybe you, a nobleman, are used to this kind of thing, but I still can't get used to it. β
Viscount Leslie smiled dumbly: "I'm just asking you, why did you send the fire to me? β
Xu Yi was silent.
Viscount Leslie shook his head and sighed lightly: "I thought that with your appearance in Bonta City, you shouldn't be so hot-blooded, but I didn't expect it, but I still read it wrong. β
Xu Yi frowned: "Lord Viscount, what do you want to say? If it's nothing, don't delay me to save people." In a few moments, the man would be killed. β
Viscount Leslie laughed, got up and pressed Xu Yi back to his seat, lifted the carriage curtain and jumped down directly, and shouted coldly at the three young people: "Victor, Shalu, Urgat, I haven't seen you for two years, I can't imagine that you three boys are still like such bastards, why don't you stop it quickly!"
"Who the dares to yell at the young master, looking for a dead ......" The young man in the middle was finishing kicking, and when he heard someone actually shouting at him, he immediately raised his head in anger, but as soon as he scolded, he suddenly stopped, and the originally arrogant expression on his face instantly turned white as if he had seen a ghost.
The other two young men felt different, and at the same time raised their heads to look over, and when they saw Viscount Leslie, their faces instantly became as pale as the young man in the middle.
Viscount Leslie smiled and said to the young man in the middle: "Victor, you are not small, you dare to say that I am looking for death?
The young man known as Victor shuddered and his face changed several times, but at last he walked up to Viscount Leslie with a bitter face.
Xu Yi was closer, and when he heard him coming, he pleaded with Viscount Leslie in a low voice.
"Brother Leslie, there are a lot of people here, save me some face......"
Viscount Leslie snorted coldly, nodded, and suddenly raised his leg and kicked Victor in the stomach.
"Bang-"
This kick was obviously not light, Victor bent down in pain, but he didn't dare to cry out in pain at all, and after a while, he straightened up and stood up straight, and a few drops of cold sweat had already broken out on his face.
Viscount Leslie hooked his finger at the other two young men, who glanced at each other and walked over with a wry smile.
"Bang bangβ"
Viscount Leslie didn't talk nonsense, and kicked them in the stomach alone, and it was no less light than the one that kicked Victor just now.
After kicking, Viscount Leslie waved his hand at the three of them: "Okay, let's get out." β
As if pardoned, the three of them turned around and ran into the crowd, disappearing in an instant.
The crowd of onlookers thought that there would be a death today, but they didn't expect a person to suddenly jump out, and the three aristocratic young masters who were extremely arrogant just now were like mice seeing cats, and this matter was easily solved.
Seeing that there was no excitement to see, the crowd dispersed, but no one paid attention to the man lying on the ground.
Xu Yi jumped out of the carriage and was about to reach out to help the man, but when he saw that the man had already struggled to get up, he didn't even look at Viscount Leslie, who had saved him, and dragged his body away slowly.
Viscount Leslie saw that Xu Yi was still staring at the back of the man leaving, and said angrily: "Hey, Xu Yi, you don't want to sue me, you want to be a good person to the end, go up to find him a doctor to heal, and give him some money by the way, right? This guy didn't even say a word of thanks, I'm afraid it's not worth it." β
Xu Yi saw the man disappear into an alley, so he turned around and said with a puzzled face: "Strange, why did I feel a strange magic fluctuation on him just now? β
Viscount Leslie was stunned: "You say he's a magician, wouldn't you? How could a magician get mixed up like this?"
Xu Yi shook his head, of course it was impossible for him to know the specific reason.
