077: An invitation from the Orontel family
"Are you talking to me?" Kane said as he looked around at the left and right of no one
The corners of Made's mouth twitched slightly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Yes. Madeh said hurriedly
"Brights of House Audrey," Kane said as he read the awkward name
"It's the House of Orontel, Count Twright. The corners of Made's mouth twitched again.
"Orendelle..."
"Orontel!"
"Well, Oron... Family?" Kane gave up on dwelling on, and instead asked bluntly, "We don't remember that we knew each other, are you sure you're looking for me?"
Made's heart was getting impatient.
His intention was clearly clear, but he still didn't know it.
After all, it's just a seventeen-year-old child, and even if he is lucky enough to take power, he can't adapt to his new identity.
He smiled, straightened the lace neckline, and spoke again, with less respect and more sycophancy between his words: "Silver flash, Bradit City is talking everywhere right now, I don't think I can be mistaken." β
Wow!
So you're already so famous?
Made's hand over the brocade box in his hand again: "This is a small gift prepared by Lord Earl, I hope you can accept it with a smile." β
Kane, who was praised complacently, took the brocade box, and as soon as he opened it, a dazzling light shone out, and Kane couldn't help but take a breath.
Inside the box was a dragon sculpture made of pure gold, standing with its wings outstretched in a pool filled with gold coins, at least hundreds of them!
Although Kane was born in a wealthy family, and Akiba Town is still prosperous, there are only about 1,000 people in the town, and his parents are kind and generous, and they never collect heavy taxes, and the taxes paid to the treasury and other income throughout the year add up to only a few dozen gold coins, so it is inevitable to be a little surprised to see such a large amount of assets for the first time!
Kane, who was stunned for a moment by the gold coin in front of him, didn't notice that the corners of Made's mouth in front of him had flashed an imperceptible disdain, and there was a little more disdain in his eyes.
I heard that this lucky new army commander was just a small nobleman from the countryside, and it seems that the rumors are true.
When he saw this bit of gold coin, he couldn't take his eyes off it, and when he turned around, the Earl would give him a little sweetness, and he still wouldn't follow the Earl?
Thinking like this, his posture couldn't help but raise a little: "If it's okay, then I'll go first, Lord Earl is waiting for you at the banquet in the evening, and the address and time are written on the post." β
So saying, he turned and withdrew into the courtyard.
"Wait!"
But at this moment, Kane's voice came from behind.
Kane then caught up with him in two steps and handed the box back to Made.
"What does this mean, sir?" said Made.
Kane smiled: "I appreciate the kindness of Lord Earl, but I can't accept this gift, and I still have something to do today, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to the banquet." β
Although he didn't figure out what was going on, Kane still felt that it was wrong to accept such a big gift for no reason, not to mention that he didn't have any financial needs at the moment.
Ma De hurriedly said, "My lord, you..."
It's just that before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Kane: "Okay, that's it, I still have something to do, your name is Made, I remember you." β
He just said this casually, but Ma De's face turned white all of a sudden.
secretly speculated that he was afraid that he had accidentally missed the horse's feet just now, so he hurriedly chased after him and begged for mercy.
It's just that Kane, who hasn't been able to fully adapt to his new identity, does have something, and today he asked Jason to practice swordsmanship, which is much more important in Kane's heart than attending any banquet.
"What's going on, sir, do you need help?" At this moment, several soldiers patrolling the gate of the courtyard noticed the abnormality and hurried in.
"Who are you, and how are you in the barracks?" the soldier scolded at the sight of the thief-eyed Made
"I'm from the Count of Terlet," said Made, hurrying with a sense of excitement
"I don't care what family you are, take it for me!"
The soldier couldn't help but say, and the one who covered his face rushed forward, and after three strokes and five divisions, he clamped Made's hands behind his back, and Kane was able to escape.
Seeing that Kane had gone farther and farther, the tears of Made's anxiousness behind him fell, and he shouted hysterically at Kane in a panic.
Kane glanced back, surprised.
There's something wrong with this guy, isn't it just a banquet?
He didn't know that Count Tellte had spent a lot of money to invite him, an upstart in the empire, not to mention that the so-called banquet was basically held for him, and with the strictness of Carlos's army, it was not easy to let idle people like Made.
However, Kane, who was not even the slightest bit conscious, turned his back and forgot about it, humming a little song and walking leisurely towards Jason's accommodation area.
The military department gave them a few days off, firstly, there is no important war at present, and more importantly, the follow-up arrangements related to them are still under negotiation.
This time, Zhuo Zhuo's meritorious deeds were improper, so that each member of the Gintama Army was richly rewarded, and at the same time, their positions were also transferred.
After all, the vast majority of these swordsman legions are commanders, and the original intention of forming them is only because of the lack of grassroots soldiers.
And with the rich experience of this blood and fire war, the members of the Silver Soul Army at this time are the objects of competition among the major legion commanders, and it is impossible to continue to treat them as a swordsman legion.
When they arrived at Jason's lodging area, the two fought in the courtyard.
Since stepping into the transcendent realm, it is no longer fair to Jason to simply compete through basic swordsmanship, and it has not improved much for Kane, so this duel is naturally a contest to start a fighting spirit.
Even though it was still in the afternoon, the dazzling swordsmanship and the powerful fighting spirit still attracted a lot of audiences.
And when Kane, who saw that he couldn't compete with the silver fighting spirit, actually fought with Jason, who was obviously at the peak of gold and had a faint trace of elemental power, it caused a burst of exclamations again, and the matter of Kane's transcendent realm swordsmanship gradually spread.
......
Ten in the evening, the barracks canteen.
At the end of the day's training, Kane and Jason walked into the barracks cafeteria side by side.
"I can't imagine it!" a wet towel hung over his shoulder, Kane said with some reluctance, "Is this the insurmountable gap in the ranks?"
Despite Kane's best efforts, the morning contest was still more than one win or loser, and Kane was obviously a little depressed about the result.
"You're not satisfied?" Jason raised his eyebrows, and then said, "Hurry up, after I advance to the rank of Earth Swordsman, it will be impossible for you to defeat me." β
"Then it depends on which of us advances first!" Kane smirked
Jason choked.
Truly.
When I first met Kane, he was obviously just a bronze scum, and in the past three or four months, he has actually stepped directly into the silver median!
Jason couldn't understand why he had reached this age to start improving by leaps and bounds when he had such a high swordsman talent?
"Kay... Chief Kaneβ" Just then, a voice came from ahead
A familiar figure was walking towards him with a dinner plate.
