Chapter 156: Reunion
More than 20 days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the situation has been unusually calm, the Rose family has no reaction, and it seems that they don't know what happened to Donne's barony, and the Count of Louis just wrote a very bland report on the matter of Baron Keith leading the army to attack Donn, and sent someone to the Marquis of Sain, but the Marquis of Sain attached great importance to this matter and immediately sent someone to the barony to investigate.
Tang En had already been arranged, the human and material evidence was there, the envoy of the Marquis of Sain comforted Don En, and hurried back to the Marquisate, the Rose family has always been the Marquis of Sain's most powerful rivals, and it is said that he is very favored by Archduke Philip, so the Marquis of Sain is very sensitive to the movements of the Rose family.
Donn's younger brother, Sir Ogdon, had become unusually humble, and the addition of three extreme warriors was enough to change the situation of the barony, he had always considered himself the number two in the barony, and now his position had become awkward.
And Barrick has been under house arrest, causing such a big trouble, causing nearly a thousand deaths and injuries, Don not only did not blame him, but made it clear that the inheritance of the barony in the future must be his, which made Barrick overjoyed, as for being under house arrest, he can completely understand, of course he will be punished for making mistakes, and this punishment is the lightest and lightest.
Sophia and Theo practiced behind closed doors, it turned out that Sophia had to personally handle the affairs of the barony, mainly worried that Barrick and Howard would put obstacles in her way, and now that Don has returned, those worries have become superfluous, so Sophia has enough time, and she has fulfilled Theo's wishes, cultivating hard, and improving her strength every day, this is the fundamental, and Sophia has put the cart before the horse.
Dio slowly opened his eyes, and Sophia on the other side was still closing his eyes and concentrating, constantly running the source power, when he killed the leader of the sand thieves, Dio had already broken through, and after such a long time of penance, he had become a fourth-order radiant warrior, however, his progress was not as obvious as the advancement of the rest of the radiant warriors.
For example, the source power of the third-order radiant warrior can support the release of twenty or thirty flame slashes, while the source power of the fourth-order radiant warrior can release fifty or sixty paths, and the power of the flame slash is also much greater.
But Dio's source power reserves are much deeper than those of the same level of light warriors, enough to support him to fight for a long time, he can last for three or four days, and now he can hold on for seven or eight days, the difference doesn't seem to be big, if you can really fight with someone for so long, the test is not the source force, but the spirit and will.
To Dio's delight, Sophia has also broken through, and now she is a seventh-order radiant warrior, Vasily is not wrong, Sophia also has extraordinary talents, as long as she can use her energy in cultivation, she will definitely be able to make some achievements.
The room was filled with puffs of smoke, like a fairyland, and a shallow layer of frost flowers formed on the floor, walls, and glass, which were all caused by Sophia's source power.
Dio stood up quietly, and at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, Dio couldn't help frowning, he repeatedly told him not to disturb them when he and Sophia were practicing, who was so bold.
Sophia was already alarmed, she slowly opened her eyes, and asked in an unhappy voice, "Who?"
"It's me, miss. Belil's voice came from outside.
"Belier?" Sophia was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Come in." ”
The door was pushed open, Belle stood at the door with a smile on her face, she didn't step into the room, blocked the door and smiled: "Miss, guess who's coming?"
Before Sophia could guess, there was a cheer outside the door, and then Belle was pushed open, and Isabel broke in with a grin, shouting in a stack of voices: "Catch it, catch it......"
Dio wanted to say hello, but when he heard Isabel's cry, his body became a little stiff, and his face couldn't laugh or cry, this ghost elf really dared to say anything...... "Isabel?!" Sophia was overjoyed.
Immediately afterwards, Xueni's figure appeared at the door, looking at Sophia with a smile, and naturally behind her were Gordon and Raymond.
"Xueni, you're here too!" exclaimed Sophia.
The three girls hooked their shoulders and hugged each other, laughing and screaming there, and the cheerful atmosphere immediately washed away the coldness of the room.
Gordon walked over with a smile, stretched out his fist, and punched Dio on the shoulder, and then Raymond also came over and gave Dio a punch, and Dio was pushed back a few steps: "You two...... Something is wrong, right?"
"It's been so long since we saw you, and we've missed you. Raymond smiled, and then turned his gaze to the three girls: "The atmosphere is so cheerful...... Gordon, let's get involved. ”
"Go ahead, I can guarantee you're going to die a terrible death. Gordon said angrily.
"Nothing happened along the way, did it?" asked Theo.
"What can happen with me?" Raymond said with a big grin, "By the way, did that Count Louis come to trouble you?"
"I've been here. Theo said.
"Huh?" Raymond was stunned: "I'm not here, how did you deal with it?"
Dio's eyes became a little dull, and he didn't react for a while, because Raymond's self-confidence was too legendary, whether he could deal with Count Louis or not, did it really have anything to do with Raymond's absence?
"Who do you think you are?" Gordon scoffed.
"Who am I?" Raymond's voice raised a lot: "I am a samurai among samurai, always fighting at the forefront, providing the best ...... for all my companions"
"Alright, alright. Gordon interrupted Raymond's self-aggrandizement, "I know who you're saying this, but ...... People don't seem to hear it. ”
"I ...... Say it louder?" Raymond said with a grin.
"You're going to die!" Gordon rolled his eyes.
Dio leaned in front of Raymond, brushed the dust off Raymond's shirt with great concern, and meaningfully helped Raymond tidy up his soft armor.
"Dio, what's the matter...... What's wrong?" Raymond was a little uneasy when he saw Dio care so much about himself for the first time.
"It's good to have confidence in yourself, and it's also good not to be afraid of challenges and strong enemies. Dio said slowly, "But...... Don't feel inferior. ”
"I, will I have low self-esteem?" Raymond laughed, "A samurai as good as me would never have the word 'inferiority' in the dictionary of life." ”
"That's good. Dio nodded: "It's good that you won't feel inferior." ”
In ordinary battles, Raymond is indeed always on the front line, but he is an off-road jeep at best, and Baron Don's two friends, Steven and Spike, are both heavy armored vehicles...... Sophia had a lively conversation with Isabel and Xueni, but they talked about some trivial matters, such as who agreed to who's pursuit, who had a bad family, something happened, and had to drop out of school halfway, which was a pity, and so on.
After chatting for more than half an hour, the excitement in her heart was almost vented, and Sophia got to the point: "You came so quickly? Do the people in the family agree to you coming? Especially you, Xue Ni, your family and the academy are willing to let you go?" Xue Ni will soon become an extreme warrior, and she is also the youngest hope star of the Santis Academy, and she has always been taken care of, as for Xue Ni's family, not to mention, they have already prepared a large number of star fragments for Xue Ni, silently looking forward to the day when Xue Ni successfully breaks through.
"We're here to help you, why don't you let us come......? We also brought more than 200 family samurai. Isabel smiled, "It won't be long before our mentor will come over." ”
Sure enough, it alarmed the mentor, Sophia's expression was a little unnatural, and she asked for help from the Santis Academy and her friends, mainly to deal with Count Louis, but she didn't expect her father Don to keep a hand, and now that the crisis has been dealt with, it seems that she doesn't need to exaggerate things so seriously.
"By the way, how are you and Colin?" Sophia changed the subject.
At the mention of Colin, Isabel's face immediately darkened, and Sophia saw Isabel's expression change, knowing that she had asked a stupid question, she quietly stuck out her tongue and looked at Xue Ni with an inquiring gaze.
"Why don't you speak?" Xue Ni smiled, "Didn't you say on the way that you have a stomach full of bitter water to confide in Sophia?"
"Isabel, come, let's sit down and say. Sophia pulled Isabel to the chair, then looked up at Raymond: "Hey, we girls are whispering, what are you doing here?"
"Tell me about you, Dio. Raymond said, "You go out." ”
"I'm talking about you!" Sophia laughed angrily, she really obeyed Raymond's ability to pretend to be stupid.
"There's nothing you can't say to us......" Raymond muttered smutteringly.
"Yes!" said Dio and Gordon in unison.
"You don't have to let them go. Isabel suddenly raised her head and gently stroked the long hair in front of her forehead: "There are some things that I have always wanted to make clear to Dio face to face." ”
"Me??" Dior froze.
Raymond and Gordon were taken aback, looking at Dio for a while, Isabel for a while, what happened between them?
"That day, I deliberately divulged your relationship with Sophia in front of Griffith. Isabel said slowly: "Originally, I had good intentions, because Griffith is also Sophia's suitor, so I want him to retreat, but ...... I was too clever to underestimate the possessiveness and jealousy of men, and I didn't expect Griffith to collude with Franvi by any means......"
