Chapter 202: Bad News from Home

Time is like an arrow, and time is like a shuttle.

Time always passes inadvertently.

In the blink of an eye, year after year passed, and the years were like an invisible knife, gradually carving wrinkles on people's faces and bodies.

Spring goes to summer, autumn and winter returns.

The Holy Spirit Empire calendar has also opened a new chapter.

William has gone from a little-known and dilapidated aristocratic young master to a noble duke that everyone looks up to, serving as the governor of Haiman Province, and concurrently serving as the lord of Yuanxin Water City, leading the border defense of the empire.

The Lester family, although inferior to the Monro family in terms of family power, is far superior in terms of financial resources, and has become the second veritable 'Green Leaf Family'.

In the year 763 of the Holy Spirit Empire, news came from the province of Kuwait that brought William down.

It was the bad news that Baron Bazado was critically ill.

According to Bill, the old butler, who was too old to walk, said in his letters, Baron Bazado had worked hard all day and was sick, and this time he was probably ill.

William sensed the gravity of the situation.

He left everything on his body behind and left it to Crean and Dodora to take care of for the time being. William himself, on the other hand, took a speedboat overnight and traveled by water to Kuwait Province to visit his critically ill father.

In terms of blood relationship, the blood flowing in William's body was given by Baron Bazado.

In terms of belonging, William went from rejecting Baron Bazado at first, to watching blankly, to being moved by the deep father-son affection, and then to the current silent acceptance......

From the bottom of his heart, William accepted the fact that Baron Bazado, a strange and familiar man, was his father.

On more than one occasion, he had made it clear that Baron Bazado would retire, step down as lord of Sunset Town, and put aside his offer to take care of the family's many businesses.

Baron Bazado always laughed it off and ignored it every time.

The reason why the Lester family was able to rise rapidly and become the uncrowned king of the merchant family known for its financial resources in the Holy Spirit Empire today is the contribution of Baron Bazado, which is indispensable.

William even had some difficulty imagining what Baron Bazado would have been like when he was critically ill.

He was riding in the fastest of the Lester family's many ships in the city of Round Water.

This medium-sized private ship is powered by a magic core and a magic circle. Out of the sea man, the speed of sailing in the vast sea area of the empire can even be comparable to that of the emperor's ** ship.

This private boat, which bears the crest of the Lester family and bears the flag of the Lester family, has been unimpeded all the way, riding the wind and waves.

One day and one night.

In just one day and one night, William's private boat sailed to the docks in Kuwait.

This wharf is called Sunset Wharf, which was built a year ago by the Lester family to facilitate the transportation of beer, perfume and other items, and is very close to Sunset Town in Kuwait Province.

It was afternoon, the sun was drowsy, and there were already signs of sunset.

When the ship landed, the deck fell with a bang, and William, riding a fast horse and several knights, rushed out together and raced on the dock.

Even if there are a lot of people on the dock, the speed is still unabated.

Many people were almost hit, but fortunately, William and his men were clever in riding and avoided them in time.

Those who were almost hit were angry, and even several nobles wanted to scold, but when they saw the flags and family emblems of the docked ships on the edge of the dock, they immediately became dumb and swallowed all the swear words back.

From Sunset Pier to Sunset Town, the journey is very fast, it only takes half a day to walk, and it only takes about an hour at most to ride a fast horse.

William returned to Sunset Town with a few skilled knights trained by Kane.

Sunset Town has long since changed.

Outside the town, there are more than two dozen tall lighthouses. Under the lighthouse, there are endless golden fields with various kinds of rice and wheat for brewing beer.

Many of the town's names are buying wheat in their fields. At night, the lighthouse is lit up, and a new group of people have to continue to work.

Although it is hard, the salary is extremely high. In the neighboring towns, take Wildfire Town as an example, there are many local celebrities who come here to try to get this high-paying farm work.

Walking through the endless golden fields and entering the sunset town, the first thing that catches your eye is the spacious avenues that have been expanded and renovated.

The original dirt and stone roads have long been paved with layers of hard bluestone slabs, and there are all kinds of streets and alleys. Horse-drawn carriages travel on the road, which is fast and very convenient and time-saving.

At this moment, at the entrance of the expanded Sunset Town, many luxury carriages are parked, row by row, column by column, neatly and neatly.

Although it is slightly congested, it does not hinder the passage of the road.

Some Williams were able to recognize which family's carriage it was, while others were not.

However, there was no need to guess, William also thought that the owners of these carriages, either rich or noble, had come to visit his critically ill father, Baron Bazado.

In fact, it is.

In the center of Sunset Town, in that eye-catching tall castle, William met many noble lords.

He walked from the gate of the castle to the second floor of the castle, where Baron Bazado was in his bedroom. Along the way, all those noble lords greeted William cordially, enthusiastically.

William looked at them one by one, with a slight hint of anxiety, and finally landed on the person standing at the end.

Governor of Kuwait, the same Governor of Locks who fought alongside William to annihilate the ghouls of Mangrove Village.

William nodded at him, and then walked to the bedroom under Baron Bazado's bed.

Baron Bazado did not fall asleep to rest.

He had lost a lot of weight, and a lot of gray hair had grown on his head, and under the service of an attentive maid, he got up with difficulty, leaned back against the head of the bed, and looked at William with a smile on his face.

He opened his mouth, and was about to speak, but he coughed violently.

The maid who was close to him hurriedly handed him a handkerchief and patted him on the back to straighten his breath.

Baron Bazado coughed and rested on the head of the bed for a while. From beginning to end, the corners of his eyes were full of smiles, and his eyes never took off William's body.

"I haven't seen you in over a year, you... I've grown a lot taller. Baron Bazado said with a pale smile on his face.

When William heard this, he also laughed: "Because I've grown up." Naturally, the height went up. ”

Baron Bazado nodded slightly. He finally looked away from William and looked at the people in the bedroom, "Everyone please go down and rest." My son is back, and tonight's prom is going on as usual. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the bedroom retreated quietly.

William was stunned, "Prom?

"A ball for you. Okay, okay, don't ask too much, go down and rest first, and when I've rested enough, I'll take the lead at tonight's ball. Bazado waved his hand and drove William away. (To be continued.) )
