"Oh, teacher, why do you say that?" asked Henry, slightly stunned and a little curious. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Not to mention the difficulty of suppressing the Blood Soul Algae with will, just to say that if you have just advanced, you can rely on the spells you have just mastered to perfectly seize the opportunity to kill the Cold Light Prophet, this kind of combat talent is not something that ordinary people can have. What's more, Luo Sheng easily defeated Harun of the Iron Shield Mercenary Regiment in the 'Liquor Stew' tavern not long ago, and he was a real bronze-rank warrior, so Luo Sheng's strength was definitely not as simple as the Black Iron Rank. Tony explained to Henry with a smile as he looked at Rason with appreciative eyes, looking exactly like an elder who spared no effort to support his juniors.

"Maester Tony has won the prize, and I'm just lucky. In the face of Tony's praise, Luo Sheng's face made the pride of a young man when he was praised, but he frowned in his heart.

Although Luo Sheng lived in Cook Castle for a while in his previous life, he didn't know much about this person because he had been under Alyssa from the beginning and had little intersection with Master Tony. I only know that the other party was originally a well-known bachelor in the royal capital, and was invited by Baron Cook to be Henry's teacher, responsible for teaching Henry's various knowledge who could not practice fighting qi and did not have the talent for spellcasting.

In Luo Sheng's original impression, although Bachelor Tony was very trusted by Henry, he was usually very low-key, did not interfere too much in other affairs, and was a simple guest. Now that Tony has suddenly appeared here with Henry, and has shown an extraordinary understanding and enthusiasm for himself, it has to make Luo Sheng doubt his identity.

However, what really made Luo Sheng sure that there was something wrong with Master Tony was the spiritual energy that had just swept over him. This kind of special power derived from the mind is very rare, and the principle of action is very different from ordinary mana, so it is difficult for ordinary people to detect it. If Luo Sheng hadn't dealt with high-level psychic warlocks in his previous life, and now his own perception had broken through twenty points, I'm afraid it would be difficult to find out that this seemingly harmless Master Tony was actually a psychic warlock with quite extraordinary strength.

And once the identity of Master Tony's psychic warlock is confirmed, then many doubts in Luo's memories of his previous life can be easily solved. After the death of Baron Cook in battle, the originally united Cook Castle fell apart at an astonishing speed, and the Alyssa siblings, who had a good relationship, turned against each other, and Tony's 'credit' was absolutely indispensable. After all, psychic warlocks are masters at manipulating other people's emotions and minds, and without defense, Tony's destructiveness is too great.

"Humility is a good quality, but being too modest is not necessary. At your age, with such a performance, even in the royal capital, it is extremely good. It's really a good luck that Miss Alyssa can recruit a talent like you!" Seeing the look on Luo Sheng's face, a trace of understanding flashed in Tony's eyes, but he said in an emotional tone.

As soon as Tony spoke, everyone's eyes looked at Luo Sheng slightly. Although Tony is not a professional, his identity as a bachelor of the royal capital is still very important. Especially in terms of vision, it is not comparable to these 'rednecks' of Cook Ling. He gave Luo Sheng such a high evaluation, which undoubtedly made Luo Sheng weigh a lot in the hearts of everyone.

However, as a party, although Luo Sheng's face showed a flush of excitement, he secretly screamed in his heart. As soon as Tony's words fell, Rason saw undisguised excitement in Henry's eyes, and his expression was completely like a bear child who wanted to snatch a toy.

"Luo Sheng, are you okay with me being my retainer?" Sure enough, as Luo Sheng expected, Henry said very enthusiastically.

Hearing Henry's words, everyone was slightly stunned, and then their expressions became a little weird. Nicole, in particular, immediately opened her mouth to say something, but finally hesitated for a long time and fell silent, while turning her gaze to Rasen.

Strictly speaking, Alyssa's invitation to Luo Sheng and others has the meaning of solicitation, so Henry's doing this now is tantamount to 'cutting off his beard', which is a very rule-breaking thing. But after all, Henry is Alyssa's own brother and the legal heir to Cook Castle, and the conflict between the two sides is not completely public. Henry asked Rason to be his retainer, which was also regarded as recruiting talent for the Cook family. Nicole, as a subordinate, can't blame anything. And Luo Sheng did not officially agree to Alyssa's solicitation, so Nicole could only wait for Luo Sheng's decision.

Standing in the center of the crowd, Luo Sheng glanced at Bachelor Tony, whose corners of his mouth were upturned, and he already knew it in his heart. Obviously, the current situation is the result of Tonny's design, and by joining Henry, Alyssa will have less help, and he will have more power in his hands that can influence. And choosing to refuse will make Henry resentful of himself and Alyssa, and aggravate the conflict between the two parties. It can be said that no matter how you choose, the other party can benefit.

Knowing Bachelor Tony's calculations, Luo Sheng also had a way to deal with it. Looking at Henry's eager eyes, Luo Sheng responded solemnly:

"Not good. ”

"Why? You look down on me, think I'm not as good as my sister and can't inherit the Cook family?" asked Henry, who was slightly stunned, then asked with anger on his face. Although Henry knew that there was a possibility of rejection before he opened his mouth, he didn't expect Luo Sheng to refuse so simply. This performance undoubtedly hurt Henry's glass heart severely, and under the influence of certain factors, some words that should not be spoken were blurted out.

"Is it a mental projection? It's really unscrupulous!" Sensing the faint mana fluctuations on Henry's body, Luo Sheng snorted coldly in his heart, but said with a stern expression on his face: "Sir, you misunderstood." I will not be your retainer, nor will I be Miss Alyssa's, or even Baron Cook's. Because my ambition is to obtain my own title and fief by my own efforts, and to become a true nobleman. So I can only say sorry for your kindness. ”

Hearing Luo Sheng's unexpected explanation, Henry was obviously stunned for a moment, and his expression became relaxed.

"Do you want to become a true nobleman? That's not an easy task! Even if you're a spell caster, I'm afraid it's hard to succeed, right?"

As a true noble child, although Henry could not cultivate, he was still very clear about the affairs of the aristocratic class.

On the continent of Ymir, the stratification of the nobility was also quite strict. At the top, of course, are the kings, dukes, marquises, and other top nobles. They have vast territories, a long heritage, a strong military force, and are the rulers and rule-makers of the highest estate, and can canonize the nobility of the second and third estates.

The second class is the actual earl, viscount, and baron. They have their own domains, towns, and force, and they obey the rules laid down at the highest level, and they directly rule over the people of their territory, and they are the strongest cornerstone of the state.

The knights of the third estate, the lords, although they were also nobles, were essentially a means for the upper class to absorb the lower elite. Their territory is small, or they have no territory, and can only directly obey the orders of their lord, which is considered a vassal of their lord. So in the eyes of the upper class, it is actually not a real noble.

And for the elite among ordinary people, there are probably two ways to become a real nobleman. The first is to first take refuge in a lord, improve his strength, make meritorious achievements, and become a third-class nobleman, and then accumulate from generation to generation to cross the gap between the third and second estates.

Like the Cook family, the king's cronies and guards for several generations before the knighthood, the Lord of Honor, were not canonized as the barons of the pioneer until nearly a hundred years ago, after making great contributions to the rescue, and took the most critical step.

The second way is to go directly to the kingdom without taking refuge in anyone. After making great achievements, there is also a chance to succeed. But in order to do this, you basically need the strength of the gold level, and at the same time, you will encounter excellent opportunities, such as the kingdom has suffered drastic changes and urgently needs the support of strength.

Henry understood that the path chosen by Rawson was undoubtedly the second. Don't take refuge in anyone, don't become someone else's vassal, and want to get titles and fiefs by your own strength. It's a great dream, but it's a very low chance of success.

"I know it's hard. But I'm willing to work for it. Even if I fail in the future, I will not regret my choice, at least I have fought for my dreams. Luo Sheng responded in a deep but firm voice.

"I see. Looking at Luo Sheng's determined expression, Henry seemed to think of something, and his expression became a little gloomy. He nodded lightly to Luo Sheng, turned around and walked back.

Master Tony frowned, wanting to say something more, but in the end he only glanced deeply at Rason and turned to follow.

"Finally fooled this 'little middle two'. Seeing Henry and the others leaving, Luo Sheng finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Although Henry was unable to cultivate, his status in Baron Cook's heart was definitely not low. This can be seen from the fact that Baron Cook spent a great deal of money to invite Master Tony to teach him in the royal capital. After all, in the aristocratic circles, a bachelor with a wealth of knowledge is also a very respected profession. In many cases, the status is not lower than that of most professionals. With Henry unable to become a professional, this was already the best path Baron Cook could help him choose.

After Law's birthday, he wanted to borrow the power of Baron Cook, and Henry was an inescapable figure. If you fall for Master Tony's calculations this time and completely offend Henry, it will be difficult for her to gain a complete foothold with Baron Cook in the future, even with Alyssa's help. But agreeing to Henry's request is not in line with Luo Sheng's character and plans for the future. So after thinking about it, Luo Sheng still adopted the strategy of 'flickering'.

Relying on his understanding of York's character in his previous life, and relying on the countless bloody youth dramas he saw when he was on Earth, Luo Sheng 'played' himself into a teenager full of passion, dreams and perseverance, which inspired the identity in Henry's heart. Finally, without making Henry resentful, he pushed down the solicitation.

However, Rason's performance is not without sequelae. Daddy York and Fili knew their plans for a long time, and didn't look too surprised. Little Herman was still a young grade and didn't know much about this. And the long-experienced old Buz and Nicole, who is faithful to the lord, look at Rasheng like fools.

However, Luo Sheng had decades of experience in his previous life, and he didn't care about this kind of gaze at all, but said to Nicole very indifferently: "Let's go." Don't keep Miss Alyssa waiting.
