When Albert stepped into Dandelion Manor, it was as if he had stepped into another world. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The shock is not enough to describe his mood at this time, this place is like a dream castle only in fairy tales.

Above the manor, a defensive magic array composed of various elements floated in the air, exuding a colorful halo that shrouded the huge manor.

Albert could feel the majestic magic fluctuations, and couldn't help but sigh at Dandelion's financial strength, such a super magic matrix, I am afraid that it will consume tens of thousands of gold coins worth of magic crystals in a day.

It's just another palace, Albert smacked his tongue.

He walked slowly and lightly on the cobbled paths, admiring the stunning scenery along the way.

Contrary to the cold and dryness of the outside world, under the effect of the magic array, the inside of the manor is like the height of summer. The air is warm, slightly humid, and the breeze is pleasant. The large garden on both sides is full of trees, and the birds fly up the branches and chirp noisily. Large dandelions are planted on the ground, and white tidbits flutter in the wind, like snowflakes in the sky.

In this dreamlike manor, Albert, who was anxious, couldn't help but relax a lot.

At the end of the cobblestone path is a majestic castle with vines climbing high walls and minarets to dress the castle in a green coat.

Kyle leaned against the castle gate, staring boredly ahead, and when he saw Albert, he hurried to meet him. "You're slow with the sun god on top, are you riding a turtle?" Kyle grumbled, dragging Albert into the castle before he could speak.

"What are you doing here?" Kyle looked at Albert and sat down on the couch to himself.

"Of course it'......"

As soon as Albert spoke, a young maid approached.

Albert closed his mouth and watched as the maid bent down, put down the two cups of hot tea from the tray in her hand, and turned away.

"Money, of course. After the maid left, before Albert could speak, Kyle found the answer in Albert's expression, "I should have thought that you would never come to visit me because you missed me." He shook his head in disappointment.

"Come on, you're not a woman. Albert smiled, his gaze resting on the steaming hot tea.

"That's true. Kyle shrugged, grabbed Albert's arm, and tugged down for him to sit down. "How much do you need?"

"At least 5... 5...... "Albert said in a rambling voice, a little unspeakable.

"5,000 gold coins?" Kyle asked, stunned, curious.

"No, it's 500,000. ”

Albert still had his head down, not daring to look directly at Kyle.

"500,000!" Kyle exclaimed, Huo Ran got up, "Are you crazy?"

He stared at Albert like a monster, 500,000 gold coins, which is not a small amount for anyone.

Albert scratched his head in embarrassment, "I know it's hard, but I do need the money." He sighed and told Kyle about his trip to the Gard Mountains, without mentioning anything about vampires. Kyle is the person he trusts the most, but there are still many servants and guards in the hall, so it's inevitable that news won't leak out. He didn't want vampires to be targeted, and that would cause people infected with boiling blood toxin to suffer together.

"That's dangerous. Kyle nodded, falling silent.

He thought about how to raise money and didn't follow up, knowing that Albert would tell him the answer later.

After a moment, Kyle nodded helplessly. "Looks like I'm going to have to borrow money from those pesky relatives. He got up slowly, "Don't get your hopes up, I can only try." After a pause, Kyle said depressedly, "You damn thing, I knew it wouldn't be good for you to come to me." ”

Albert shrugged with a smile, "Who made you my best friend?"

"Knowing you is the biggest mistake I've ever made. Kyle gave Albert a blank look and turned to leave the hall.

It didn't take long for Kyle to be back in the hall, but not alone, in front of Kyle was a man who looked to be about forty years old.

The middle-aged man was dressed in an orthodox aristocratic costume with a dandelion embroidered on his left chest, and tidbits flew to the neckline. He resembles Kyle's appearance, with the same resolute silhouette, sunken eye sockets, and a high nose. However, unlike Kyle, the middle-aged man's eyebrows are majestic, and his piercing eyes seem to be able to see everything, which makes people worship and at the same time harbor awe.

It's a complicated feeling that Albert has only felt with Blaisle.

It was not a symbol of strength, but a temperament that had been in a high position for a long time, and even the Grand Prince of Auston did not possess it.

When they saw the middle-aged man and Kyle, the guards stood on the ground with their swords on one knee and knelt down, and the maids also bowed their heads and saluted.

"Get up. The middle-aged man's tone was low and calm, and his voice was very magnetic, making people feel more kind, as if he was a gentle elder. He walked slowly up to Albert, always with a gentlemanly smile on his face, "I heard your name a while ago, Albert. ”

"That's my pleasure. Albert smiled back, neither humble nor arrogant.

The middle-aged man patted Albert on the shoulder, then made a gesture of please, and took the lead in sitting on the sofa.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Excellency. Albert continued, not sitting down, because Kyle didn't sit down, standing behind the middle-aged man.

As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Kyle, hoping that Kyle would tell him who the middle-aged man really was. Of course, he could guess that there were not many people who had the wind of a king.

It's just that Albert easily came to a conclusion.

He hoped Kyle would tell him personally, but the other party let him down.

This unscrupulous guy on weekdays is now as docile as a lamb, never saying a word.

"My name is Rowan Dandelion, Kyle's uncle. As if he had seen through Albert's thoughts, the middle-aged man smiled.

Albert was stunned for a moment, then straightened his back, "Your Excellency the Dandelion Baron, please forgive me for being rude just now. He apologized that there might be people who didn't know the name of the emperor of Auston or Buffia, but almost everyone had heard the name "Rowan". That's the richest man in the world, the current patriarch of the Dandelion family, Baron Dandelion.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just coming down to see you. Rowan said softly and took the coffee from the maid.

"Kyle has been mentioning you a lot these days, and he says you're best friends. And he has such achievements now, and he can't do without your help. ”

As he spoke, he took a sip of his coffee and fixed his eyes on Albert to see what the little guy could do to make such a big change for Kyle.

He knew this smart and headstrong nephew.

Since the death of his brother and sister-in-law, Kyle has been devastated and even holds a grudge against him.

But this time, Kyle not only stood out from more than 300 family succession candidates, but his personality also changed a lot.

This made him very happy, and he knew that he owed Kyle a lot. The patriarch of the family is not as glamorous as it seems, and a council of elders of up to 100 people can decide family affairs. More often than not, the patriarch of the family is simply the person responsible for speaking on behalf of the family.

He tried to argue for his brother, but without success.

When his brother was sentenced to death, he suffered more than anyone else, and he was his only real brother.

"It's all a credit to Kyle, he's a genius. Albert inadvertently interrupted Rowan's thoughts, "But if there is a need, I will do my best." ”

"You're a good boy. Rowan nodded, not blaming Albert for his unintentional actions, "I'm sure you can do it." ”

As he spoke, he took out a beautifully crafted crystal card from his trouser pocket and placed it on the coffee table.

"It's 500,000 gold coins, and you're Kyle's best friend, my nephew. Rowan said seriously, his tone gentle and firm.

Rowan sees in Kyle and Albert the shadows of his brother in the past, and even though Kyle and Albert are not related by blood, he can feel the deep friendship that is comparable to family affection.

If it weren't for Kyle's relationship with Albert, not to mention the Elder Magi, he wouldn't have taken it seriously.
