Chapter 52: William
Under the holy light of the legendary Knight of Light, the chaotic town of White Rock gradually became orderly, and those adventurers who had been terrified all day long found that it was not completely beneficial to have a lord, at least they had to sleep with their eyes open. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Of course, they need to pay a lot of gold moores, but it seems that they get more than what they give.
Soon White Rock became a paradise for adventurers, taverns, grocery stores, witches' soothsayers' homes, adventurers' homes. They have opened in White Rock Town. The tiny town of White Rock grew more prosperous, and it wasn't long before Salit Larsson gathered a following around him. A year later, the legendary Knight of Light returned to the Holy City, but the temple's successor soon arrived. The monthly Templar ruling was thus fixed, but the successors after Alpha soon discovered that this was not an easy task, and that the ruling in White Rock could easily turn into a riot. Bloodshed occurred from time to time, but this did not shake the foundation of White Rock Town, but the adventurers gradually realized that an orderly White Rock Town was in everyone's interest. Gradually, groups of permanent residents appeared in White Rock Town, and they became the first group of nobles in White Rock Town, such as Yoda, the tax collector, and Cruise, the clerk.
The meeting in the council hall lasted for a whole afternoon, and everyone was frozen with cold hands and feet, and when the rainbow-like hourglass was finally empty, the lord's cold face showed a long-lost smile, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, "This is the end of today's meeting. ”
As usual, the meeting was followed by a dinner party for the lord, which was held in a warm room. The light music that has recently become popular in the city without frost sounds, and the conductor of the band is a genie from Vienna, the capital of music. Handsome face, focused eyes. Delicious grilled meats, fresh fruits, sweet wines, everything is so good. But the frozen nobles hadn't recovered yet, and their stiff fingers couldn't hold the smooth disks at all.
However, there was one exception, and that was Baron Crews, the registrar of the realm. He took a plate full of Ghost Bunny's roast, then took a glass of delicious Bordeaux wine and gulped it down.
"It's nice to be young. The gray-haired old gentleman sat down across from Lord Cruise, for it was a great thing for him to stand and sit down now. His whole body froze.
"It's nothing, all you need is Huobi. Cruise pulled out a small red round coin from his bosom, and made it very crudely, like a toy made out of mud by a three-year-old child.
"This is the warm Huobi that has gone viral in White Rock Town recently?" the gray-haired old gentleman put the Huobi in the palm of his hand and looked at it carefully.
"Yes, it's the gadgets that are given away from the Purgatory Tavern, as long as you go there for the cheapest drink. The pretty fairy lady will give you one of these gadgets. Adventurers call them Huobi. It means warm!" Cruise swallowed a mouthful of the delicious Ghost Storm Bunny, the taste of the Ghost Storm Bunny was so delicious that he could never eat such delicious food anywhere else except in White Rock Town.
"A place like the Purgatory Tavern is not a place where nobles should go, young man, you'd better go to less places like that in the future, it's too much for the lord to give the title to a gray dwarf despite dissuasion, and what's even more odious is that the dwarf is actually the boss of Purgatory. The gray-haired old nobleman threw the fire coin in his palm on the table, as if he was afraid that it would dirty his hands.
"Why don't you give it a try, put Huobi on your body, and soon your whole body will warm up. Cruise said kindly.
The stubborn old aristocrat muttered in a dialect that the clerk did not understand, leaving the embarrassed and depressed clerk behind.
"Ignore him, he's just an old stubborn man who never accepts anything new. Yoda, the tax collector holding a large glass of piping hot butterbeer, took the old nobleman's place, and he sat down across from Cruise.
"What a fun stuff. Yoda, who swallowed a large gulp of frothy butterbeer, picked up the fire coin on the table, and the piping hot butterbeer was the best drink to warm the body in winter. However, butterbeer was too cheap, and the average nobleman disdained to drink such a thing. But our tax collectors are clearly not in that category.
In general, neither the clerk of a territory nor the tax collector can be friends. How is it possible for a working donkey to sit with a whip that beats a donkey?
"I heard that this gadget can keep you warm even in the wilderness if you wear it?" asked Yoda.
"Yes," Clerk Cruise said, raising his glass and taking a sip of the red wine, the sweetness of which melted on the tip of his tongue with a slight sourness. Apparently the clerk has a different taste from Yoda, he likes red wine from the romantic land of Bordeaux, "I just tried it myself, I kicked this little guy in my trouser pocket, and my body was warm all afternoon during the meeting, and I didn't have to worry about being frozen again." ”
"You're not going to put it in your crotch, are you, how do I smell it?" Yoda threw the fire coin in his hand on the table in disgust, picked up the butterbeer and fled.
"Falk oil!" the clerk's nose was crooked, and he pinched the fire coin on the table in the palm of his hand, and concentrated on the food on the plate again.
The lord usually did not attend such banquets, and when she was done, she would go back to her study to deal with the papers in the realm, and only go to dinner after about half an hour, and then go back to her own place to check William's homework.
As the eldest son and sole heir of Salit Larsen, William was destined to become lord of Whitestone. There was no decent teacher to teach our lord in the remote town of White Stone, so our lord decided to teach him himself. But when William was seven years old, a letter from the legendary Knight of Light Alpha shattered William's peaceful life.
"William, you're going to Igros, where you're going to become a powerful dragon knight, and only then can you live. in order to escape the judgment of fate. ”
"Why, why Mom?"
"If you are a lowly lord, sooner or later you will be crushed to scum!"
Young William was confronted with a tearful lord, and he shed tears of sadness at a loss and began to train harder and harder.
