Chapter 55: The Promise
"Boss, bring me something good!" Ed said as he walked into a restaurant and spoke to the owner, followed by Francis's gang. After Ed and his party escorted the caravan to the town yesterday, their mission was complete. So at Aisha's suggestion, everyone came to the restaurant to prepare for a big meal.
"Okay, please wait a minute! There are a few more people upstairs, please!" The boss hurriedly greeted when he saw so many people coming, the business in the store is good, and the first floor is already full.
Ed took the lead, and Francis and his gang went up to the second floor, where they found a large table by the window and sat down.
"I really didn't expect us to be relatives!" Ed said incredulously as he looked at Francis, who was getting along well with his sister.
"Okay, brother! You've already said it all the way! Isn't it nice to have such a relative, and Aisha likes a beautiful brother like Francis very much! "Hehehehe......" Aisha has liked to stay with Francis since she knew that Francis was a little related to her.
Francis smiled and shook his head, "It's not that exaggerated, our bloodlines have been separated by an unknown number of generations, and they are already very thin." "When the two families married, the Aeus family was still prosperous at that time, and now it has fallen into such a state, I don't know how many years have passed.
"Anyway, don't you have a Du in your surname, by the way, do you want Francis to enter the Du family?" Ed asked suddenly, his expression serious, not like a joke.
"Hmm, why did you ask me this all of a sudden?" Francis was suddenly asked, a little overwhelmed.
"You can be regarded as the lost bloodline of the family, wouldn't it be good to return to the family from the new!" Ed even prepared his words, it seemed that he was really ready to enter the Du family.
"That's right, Brother Francis must be very popular with Grandpa if he joins the family!" Aisha said leisurely, pouring a glass of water.
"Hehe! Thank you for your kindness! To be honest, I never thought of living with Du's surname!" Francis closed his eyes, touched his chest, and felt the powerful beating of his heart, he owed his life to others, and said that he would revive the family for him, how could he live with another surname.
"Hmm, Francis, you have to think about it!" Ed frowned, even if a baron is highly talented, without the cultivation of his family and the help of external forces, he will not be able to become a strong man after all. This is also why the strong people on the continent are all from the aristocracy, while the commoners are always commoners, and the strong are just unattainable dreams for them. Although he hasn't been with Francis for a long time, in his heart, Ed has already recognized Francis, and he doesn't want his friend's such a good talent to be buried like this.
"yes, isn't Brother Francis thinking about it, everyone is a family!" Aisha hurriedly advised.
"You have to think clearly! There are not many opportunities for this kind, the Du family is a prestigious golden family on the mainland, and you can work hard for half a lifetime when you enter this family. Rand said lukewarmly, that's how he cares about people.
"Well, I also think Francis, your consideration is a bit too hasty!Come to think about it, there is still a lot of time from here to Yanjing!" Linda nodded to Aisha and joined in dissuading Francis.
The three of Diess next to them didn't say a word, how Francis decided, they just followed the execution, and they couldn't control this kind of thing.
Handing a glass of water to Delores, Francis touched her head and said gently: "Hehe! I understand very well what you mean, it is nothing more than that with the help of the Du family, my future road will be smooth sailing." ”
"If you understand, why don't you promise me!" Ed frowned, he didn't expect Francis to be such a stubborn person.
"Well, well...... I once made a promise to a guy and he paid me in advance! How can I break the contract when I get paid? As a man...... What I say must be done, this is my first principle of being a human being!!" Francis squinted at the four of Eddard, and although his tone was gentle now, everyone could still feel his determination.
With such a strong momentum, looking at the smiling Francis, the four of Ed suddenly felt that Francis's words did not allow them to object.
"It's too domineering, isn't it! It's an excuse to hear it just now!" Ed took a sip of water, and somehow, he was suddenly depressed just now. Rand buried his head in his arms and lay down on the table, "Whatever you want!
"Several, the food is coming!" a small guy greeted, followed by a few people and began to serve the food.
"Oh, it's time to eat, Mom, I'm going to eat that, that, and that!" Deloris dropped the cup in her hand and sat down in Francis's arms, asking Francis to serve her food.
"Deloris in her sister's arms!" Aisha said to Delores, and Linda and she both loved the lively and cute Delores.
"Don't!" Deloris ate what was in her mouth, ignoring everyone but Francis and Saber.
"Hey, my sister is so sad!" Aisha pretended to be sad.
"Hehe!" Francis touched her daughter's head, "she likes blonde girls!
"Really?" Aisha looked at Saber with blond hair, although she was very gentle when eating, but her speed was a little too fast!
After eating, Francis and his party were ready to wander around the town before heading out. Now that Eddard's mission has been completed, they still have plenty of time.
"A few slow walks!" said the boss enthusiastically, touching the gold coins in his hand, such generous guests are rare, although they do eat a lot.
"Boss, come up with good food!" Several men dressed as mercenaries walked in from outside, all dressed in red and carrying large swords behind their backs. It just so happened that Francis and his gang walked out the door and bumped into several of them head-on. After seeing the women of Francis's group, several mercenaries immediately stood in place, especially Francis, several guys drooled when they saw it, and they didn't come back to their senses until Francis walked out of the door.
"Don't go, stop!" A few people ran outside to stop Francis and his party, staring at Francis and the others with red eyes, "Little girl, why are you walking so fast......?
Francis frowned, this kind of person is really disgusting, a few mercenaries are only four or five orders of strength, they dare to be so arrogant.
"Young master, please let me come! these people will only dirty your hands. Aiolos walked to the front and looked coldly at the mercenaries opposite, these mercenaries really didn't know whether they were alive or dead.
"Hahaha! What? You still want to resist, do you know who we are? Say it and scare you to death? The little girl will go with the uncle, or else?" A mercenary shouted and threatened Francis and his gang, and the people on the side of the road did not stop to watch, and directly accelerated and left here.
"Aiolos, lightly, don't kill you!" Francis said coldly. Ed and Rand hurriedly focused their attention on Aeolos, the strength of Francis's guards, they had always wanted to know, and they just took the opportunity to get a glimpse.
"Haha! What are you talking about?Joke!This joke is good!" A mercenary drew his big sword and pointed it at Aeolos, "Boy, get out of the way, grandpa's sword is not long-sighted." ”
"Got it!" Aiolos nodded politely at Francis and threw a punch at the others. Before a few mercenaries could react, they only heard a crackling sound on their bodies, and they fell limply on the spot without moving. Ed and Rant's eyes flashed, the voice just now, how many punches came out, so fast!
"Let's go!
"Francis, it looks like I'm here for you! Tsk, it's not a small charm!" Linda's tone was slightly apprehensive, and Francis was speechless for a while. It's so strange that women even have to compare with such things as flirting.
"Well, let's leave first!" Ed looked at the crowd around him, "It is estimated that there are still their comrades here, it seems that the strength of this mercenary group in the local area is not small, and it is better to leave this town as soon as possible." ”
Everyone nodded, went back to the inn, and gathered up to leave.
"Young Master, aren't they just a few mercenaries, are we going to be so flustered!" Diess looked at Francis who was preparing his luggage, and these people let them escape, there were two Golden Saint Seiyas here.
"Don't you think this is interesting? Young master, I can also pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger now!haha......"
"Mommy's going to make a pig?" Delores.
"Young Master likes to eat tigers?" said Gehry.
"Forehead...... I'm just a metaphor, a metaphor. Francis touched his head, these two guys rely on the knowledge passed down by the race, sometimes they are really unenlightened!
In just an hour, a few people left the gate of the town and headed in the direction of Yanjing.
"How's it going, is anyone following?" Ed asked Francis, who was in the carriage as Aisha and Linda got in.
"No, that's weird, someone should be looking for us, isn't it?" Francis smiled and looked at the road ahead.
"Hehe, do you just want someone to come and make trouble?" Ed shook his head, he didn't know Francis's strength, and directly judged Francis as the type with little experience. "Your bodyguard is very strong, but it's ......" Ed looked at the road ahead, and his intuition told him that there was an ambush.
