Chapter 414: Humiliation (II)
Hora Ludwig was in a terrible mood.
He just came to buy coffee, but he ran into this!
Ludwig of Dordor and Ludwig of Gambis, who served different monarchs, were distinguished by the coat of arms of the Golden Sparrow and the Blue Finch coat of arms.
Hora is a son of the Golden Bird family. His grandfather was a cousin of the Golden Knight Duke Ludwig, and his half-sister was Claudia Ludwigsi, the future queen of Dord.
Thanks to her sister's relationship, Hora has followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince since she was a child and served as a knight in the Friedrich family.
This was his first visit to Gambis as an envoy to Dors, and he always wanted to bring gifts for his sister and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The most famous specialty of the Gambis is the coffee of the Centaur Hills.
Hora inquired very clearly, and the coffee in Blinor City was only available at the Blue Amber Inn. But that was the estate of Viscount Tenis Ludwigsi.
Jin Li Que and Lan Li Que both look at each other unpleasantly, and often secretly make stumbling blocks, so that the other party cannot get off the stage. Hora didn't want to be ridiculed in front of the Marquis of Lanli Sparrow for coffee. He thinks that as long as he comes forward in person and doesn't give Tenis a chance to report the news, the son-in-law who has just joined the Blue Lane Bird family will not be able to hand over the coffee obediently?
After attending the small luncheon held in the Kite Castle, Hora first tried to dismiss the attendants of the Kite Castle's Internal Affairs Office, and then rushed to the Blue Amber Hotel with his men. He then mistakes the famous Viscount Randall for a beautiful aristocratic lady, causing a series of incidents.
Only the inferior nobles below the earl would stay in the manor inns in the outer city. In Hora's opinion, the beautiful noble lady was no exception, but the one-eyed dragon guard couldn't figure out the situation, and he didn't say anything about his evil deeds, and his spit was going to spray on Count Hora's face. Of course, the Earl's knightly guards had to teach him a lesson.
Who would have thought that a noble-blooded and popular archer would appear in the Blue Amber Hotel? Who would have thought that the captain of the personal guard of the dignified Viscount Lord would be an ordinary person? Who would have thought that the famous Viscount Randall would be so insidious?
It's too late to say anything. Viscount Randall's big hat was buttoned down one by one, and all the occupants of Blue Amber shrank back, and no one was going to clear up the misunderstanding for Hora Ludwig. If he identified himself, he would have become an envoy of the Duoduo trying to get close to the weak elven nobleman, and wounding his guards.
What did the Kingdom of Dor want to do to Viscount Randall, to humiliate him like a noble lady, or to try to harm him?
Either way, Hora couldn't afford it.
However, Viscount Randall apparently recognized him, and he prevented Hora from revealing his identity in order to prevent the misunderstanding from escalating into a diplomatic crisis. But Hora must pay for it, the price of being humiliated by Viscount Randall.
After thinking it through, Hora ordered, "Throw all your swords on the ground!" He raised his hands again and cautiously said to Victor, "Your Excellency Randall, this is really a misunderstanding...... Please allow us to exit here first, go outside to clarify the misunderstanding, and apologize so as not to disturb the guests in the hotel...... What do you think?"
"Step back one by one."
The Duoduo retreated outside the house in despair, surrounded by the Randalls' guards.
"Are you alright, sir?" asked Nelson as he walked over.
"I'm fine...... Acre, you can put the tree down. Victor shook his head and said, "Gru is injured, send someone to see him." β
Gru stepped out with Shak's support, and said weakly, "My lord, I have disappointed you......" as he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
This guy's strength is not good, but his mind is clever enough, and his ability to pretend to be dead and touch porcelain is self-taught, and he actually bit his tongue secretly...... Victor was secretly amused, but there was a heavy expression on his face, "Come on two people, send Gru to the church, and ask the priest to treat him." β
When the porcelain actor left the stage, Hora stepped forward and bowed, and said sincerely: "Your Excellency Randall, I apologize to you for the reckless behavior of me and my men. I am willing to pay a knight's ransom as compensation for offending the Randalls. β
"There was once a knight of the Buryatia who strayed into Randall's territory and was captured alive by my men. His father paid a knightly ransom of 20,000 gold soles before I agreed to preserve his dignity. Victor asked lightly, "How much are you going to lose?"
Hora froze slightly, gritted her teeth and said, "I'll pay 50,000 gold soles." β
"Okay! β
Hora nodded to her valet with a pained expression. The beautiful female midshipman pouted and handed Shak a purse. The Monkey Militia poured the dazzling purple gold coins into Caligula's big hand, counted them one by one, put them into the money bag, and handed them to Victor.
Fifty thousand gold soles are equal to one alchemy dragon lizard...... An alchemy dragon lizard is equivalent to a silver-tier ogre leader...... Victor's anger eased, and he nodded in satisfaction.
Hora breathed a sigh of relief and said respectfully, "Your Excellency Randall, then we will take our leave first." β
"Wait!"
Victor stopped Hora and the others, stared at one of the knights, and said coldly, "You injured the captain of my personal guard, and you are going to leave like this?"
The knight's guard froze on the spot. Although he is a bronze knight who was promoted by energy potions, a knight is a knight. The extraordinary ability to unite body and mind made him very aware of the power of his shot, and he didn't hurt the one-eyed dragon at all.
"Your Excellency Randall, I beg your pardon. Your captain of the guard wasn't seriously injured, he broke his tongue at best...... I think he was afraid of being punished by you, so he deliberately pretended to be injured. The knight of the guard said angrily.
An inferior person is an inferior person, and if you can't beat it, you will pretend to be dead! You still dare to deceive the noble master of the bloodline, see if I don't expose your true colors!
Hola Ludwig also tactfully reminded: "Your Excellency Randall, the captain of your personal guard should be fine, and you may wish to consult the priest." The others looked at Victor with regretful eyes, as if sympathizing with him for being fooled by his subordinates.
How can there be such a naΓ―ve knight aristocrat?
Victor laughed and laughed, but after thinking about it, he found that there were really no ordinary people who dared to touch porcelain with knights. And the extortion between the knights and nobles is either for blood, or for territorial resources, or for large ransoms, in short, it will not be a trivial matter. Naturally, the strife of the nobility could not be used as an excuse for ordinary vassals.
Victor had Gru play dead just to punish a noble knight. This kind of behavior is really a bit unacceptable, or it can be said to be a humiliation to the knights and nobles. However, Hora has violated Victor's taboo, and his men are destined to be killed as an example.
Dare you call me "Miss Beautiful"...... How can you cure your blindness without hitting you in the face?
"Can't I see if my men are hurt? Victor didn't bother to pretend anymore, and waved his hand: "Nelson, wring his left arm, let him accompany this Excellency to find the priest." β
The knight said angrily: "I'd rather duel!"
Hora's face changed drastically, and she said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, no one would insult the glory of a noble knight like this. β
"How can a knight be glorious when he shoots at ordinary people. Victor smiled contemptuously, turned his head and said, "Nelson, this knight wants to duel......"
"I'll be with you to the end!" Nelson stepped forward with a sinister smile and raised his axe, "with my bare hands, I'll break both of your arms." With weapons, I will fulfill your glory. β
The knight's guard blushed, he got down on one knee and said to Hora, "Master, allow me to defend my glory. β
"Robert, calm down. β
Hora turned her head, glared at Victor and said, "I won't apologize for a guard who pretended to be dead. We opted for hand-to-hand combat. β
Victor pursed his lips disdainfully and winked at Nelson, "Be careful...... Don't kill the knight. β
"Don't worry, sir. Nelson dropped his tomahawk, stepped forward with his arms folded, raised his chin and said, "You want to cut off that arm first?"
Robert said abruptly, "I hope the Bear of the Northland has claws stronger than its mouth!" and he slid and shrunk in front of Nelson, his left fist piercing the air and whizzing into Nelson's chest.
A knight is a knight after all. Robert's punch was satisfying, with both speed and strength, and there was no flaw in his whole body, even if there was an iron man on the opposite side who couldn't be beaten, he would be directly blown away.
Nelson wasn't an iron man, and no matter how strong his physique was, he was only flesh and blood. The Silver Knight is able to use the Void Elemental to protect his body and hard-hit the full force of the Beginner Knight. If Nelson was hit, he would lose his balance, if not badly, and then be hit by a raging storm.
The greatest advantage of the Fierce Warrior is that it surpasses the knight's combat instincts. They are born with a sense of how to deal with dangerous situations. Nelson has now ignited the fire of his mind, and his spiritual attribute has reached 16 points, and his combat power is enough to rival the great knight who has just entered the silver realm.
I saw that his body was in a mess, his chest collapsed, and he avoided the sharp fist at the peak, and before the opponent fine-tuned his pace, he grabbed his arm and broke it with a backhand with twice the strength of ordinary knights, and the sound of a broken arm suddenly came.
Unfazed, Robert leaned forward and raised his right elbow to strike Nelson's door.
However, the difference in strength between the two sides is too large, and it is difficult to make up for it with any skills.
Nelson held up his elbow like a prophetic strike, and backhanded Robert was caught with the Gripen technique taught by Tournans, and the force of force left him on one knee and unable to move. Nelson was about to break Robert's arm in an executionary gesture.
"Oh, Lord Nelson, what are you doing here?"
Tenis was late, he approached with his escort and said in surprise, "Count Ludwig, you are also here?"
Hola Ludwig had a gloomy face and said nothing. His men glared at Tenis.
If this guy had shown up earlier and helped out, Robert wouldn't have been humiliated. I just ran out now, did I come to see the joke?
Lan Li Que doesn't have a good thing! even if it's a son-in-law who has just joined the family.
Tenis smiled and said, "Your Excellency is studying martial arts with Lord Nelson?Count Ludwig, don't you know that Lord Nelson's teacher is the legendary paladin Master Turnans. His martial arts skills are naturally outstanding. β
Hora and his knights were shocked, and Robert was in a much better mood.
There is nothing to be ashamed of losing to a legendary disciple.
"It turned out to be Lord Count Ludwig...... "Victor chuckled and said, "Nelson let go of him...... Put away all your swords. β
The guards put away their weapons and pacified the birds. Nelson let go of Robert and stepped back behind Victor.
"Lord Count, are you here to stay at the Blue Amber Hotel?" asked Tenis with a smirk.
Hora said expressionlessly, "Just walk around." Let's go. β
The Dordors surrounded the court count and left the orchard, not even picking up the golden sword that had been thrown on the ground.
When they were far away, Victor laughed and said, "It's not wise for you to come out at this time. If you come out early, they will thank you. Now that it has come out, and Nelson's background has been pointed out, the people of the Golden Bird family will only transfer their hatred to you. β
"Always let you breathe first. I'm not going to go to the Kingdom of Dodor anyway. Tenis shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and laughed again: "Jin Lique treats us as side branches, and thinks he is superior. Hora is always sneering when he sees the Marquis...... He made a fool of himself in front of me, and I saw if he would dare to be arrogant in front of the Marquis. β
"Speaking of which, I would like to thank you. The Marquis will be glad to hear about today's events. β
Victor said, "You want to please Susanna." β
Tenis shook his head and smiled bitterly. Victor asked instead, "Did my sister and brother go up?"
"It's gone up the back door. They are now with Baroness Shataen. Tenis nodded.
"Good. It's time for me to go. Please go up and tell my parents that I'm okay so they don't have to worry. β
Victor and the others put away the seven finest gold swords, stepped on the swift bird, and walked away.
It stands to reason that he should personally appease his parents and younger siblings. But Victor just noticed a detail. The old stonemason's servant looked over for a brief moment with a short-robed gray servant.
The servant's elemental stats are all 18 points, and he is a high-level silver knight.
High knights have an arrogant temperament and take their reputation very seriously. I am afraid that only a well-established royal family can let a great knight disguise himself as a servant and protect a wizard in obscurity.
The old stonemasons were clearly important to the Auguste family. The wizard's extraordinary abilities are also known for their unpredictability. Victor isn't too worried about witchcraft right now, but Nelson and Caligula can't tell.
Blue Amber, the land of right and wrong, it's better to leave early.
