"Earl Norton." Claire bowed slightly, the other party, as Shane's father, was his elder.

Norton smiled at Claire and nodded, but sat down far away from Sophia and Claire.

There were already four or five people in the salon at this time, but no one spoke, just whispered small talk to the people next to them, and now their casual words could be huge waves outside. Sophia didn't open her mouth to attract everyone's attention, and before anyone arrived, she lowered her head and chatted with Claire about the next thing he asked him to help with.

"I'll handle the supplies on the kingdom's side, and you'll be responsible for the fury plane, I've already greeted His Majesty the king, and I'll give you a temporary official position, and the supplies from here to the furious flame plane will pass through your hands at that time."

Claire was slightly surprised, "Leave such a big matter to me?" You're so relieved. ”

"I mentioned it to His Majesty the King, and His Majesty is very optimistic about you, saying that he will give you a temporary official position, and when you reach the Flame Plane, you can also manage the materials of other nobles." Sophia said with a smile.

Claire blinked, closed her mouth and didn't speak, and pondered, what does Norris mean by this?

Seeing that Claire didn't speak, Sophia thought something was wrong and asked, "Is it too much?" If you can't control it, tell me, and I'll react to Your Majesty. ”

Claire shook her head, "Not really, it's just that it might be a little tired." ”

Hearing that Claire was fine, Sophia also smiled, reached out and pinched Claire's face, "I knew you could, don't worry, I will tell His Majesty the King after the matter is completed"

While the two were talking, a middle-aged man with a bald head and a gold-covered black cane walked over.

The middle-aged man also saw Sophia, his eyes flickered a few times, and he didn't want to collide with Sophia's gaze. The person sitting on the sofa was not a human spirit, and when he saw the situation, he immediately shouted: "Prince Albert, come and sit here, I have something I want to talk to you about." ”

Claire reacted at this time, oh, it turns out that this bald head is the Prince Albert who made Sophia lose a lot of money as Sean said before. I saw it once last time at Duke Charlie's wedding reception, but at that time he was wearing a top hat, and now when he takes off his top hat, he reveals his bald head inside, and he is still unrecognizable for a while.

After Prince Albert came, people arrived one after another, and then Claire noticed that something was wrong, and there was a man with a high nose and a little haggard bridge opposite them, staring at him intently, looking a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he saw it, and he wanted to ask who Sophia was.

But after everyone arrived, Sophia took the lead in standing up and introduced to Claire: "Let me introduce to you, this is Viscount Claire, a good friend of our Auguste family, and he is also the logistics officer in charge of the two realms in this war, and everyone's supplies to the Flame Plane must go through his hands." ”

Claire stood up, smiled politely, and didn't speak. Sophia has already said that, that sentence is equivalent to letting the top powerful nobles present know that there is going to be a new person to join them, and if you meet someone who can help in the future, don't stumble if you can't help.

Before Claire could sit back down, an inopportune voice rang out, "Lady Sophia, it's not that I'm questioning you, it's that he looks like a child who is no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, can he take on this heavy responsibility?" ”

Claire looked in the direction from which the voice came from, and it was the emaciated man who had just stared at him.

When Sophia heard this, there were three points of fire in her eyes, and she said this just after the introduction, which was a slap in the face.

"What's wrong? I have also been in charge of the Auguste family since I was eighteen, and age does not mean anything. ”

The man didn't seem to hear the other tone in Sophia's words, and continued: "You are you, your ability is obvious to all, but we don't know this kid, let's entrust our supplies to him, if something goes wrong, who will take the responsibility?" ”

Sophia could already see anger in her eyes, and said coldly: "This is an order from His Majesty the King himself, do you want to say that there is something wrong with His Majesty's approach?" ”

"Sophia, you don't have to buckle down such a big hat, I think Count Puran is right." Prince Albert on the side accosted him, he really didn't want to come out at first, but if someone stood up, he didn't mind pushing it, Sophia was tired of him, and he naturally didn't deal with Sophia.

"He's so young and it's hard for him to take on big responsibilities. I'll report to Your Majesty and ask him to think about it again. Albert said, it doesn't matter whether you report it or not, the important thing is that at this moment, Cassophia will make her lose face in front of so many top nobles, you must know that she did more than this at the beginning, making the whole king known, and he lost the face of a prince.

Sophia's chest fell together, Claire stood up again, reached out on her shoulder and pushed her back onto the sofa, whispering in her ear, "Don't worry, leave it to me." ”

Sophia's strength was not as strong as Claire's, and after being pressed down, she looked at Claire with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Claire clapped her hands, and the first to look at the haggard man pretended to think for a moment, "Oh, Count Plan, right, first of all I want to say sorry to you. ”

I'm sorry?

Everyone present was a little stunned, where did they come from to be sorry?

"You're Baker's father, aren't you?" Claire continued, he had just thought about why he looked so familiar, he was the father of Baker who had been beaten twice by himself. According to Edith's news, he is also the son of a magister, so it's no wonder he dares to slap Sophia like this.

Claire continued: "Why say you're sorry? Because I beat your child, but you can't just target me because I hit your son twice, and he came to the door on his own every two times. ”

As soon as Claire's words came out, the situation reversed instantly, and from questioning Claire's ability to suddenly changing to the other party's personal vendetta.

Count Puran stood up suddenly, pointed at Claire's nose and scolded, "You dare to mention it!" Just because of those two battles, my kid's current cultivation has not progressed! ”

Sophia smiled happily when she heard this, it turned out that this was the case, and the matter was much easier to solve.

So he immediately stood up, pointed at the nose of Count Puran and scolded, "What? Will your son win the duel? If you don't have talent, don't duel with others, and after the fight, blame them for beating your child to autism. ”

Count Puran's face turned red at once, and he cried out loudly, "Who is not talented!" The voice drew the attention of the nobles who were talking outside.

Sophia didn't show weakness at all, and said lightly: "Isn't Claire the kid in your family who can't beat us at the same level!" What is there to say about this! The other party didn't give her face in the first place, and she didn't blame Sophia for being bitter and mean at the moment.

"Where there is a father, there is a son! Your magical talent has not inherited Duke Karl's, and you will only be an archmage after cultivating for most of your life! How good is your son's talent! ”

"You, you, you!" Count Puran's outstretched hand trembled, and his face flushed terribly. As the son of a magister, his own cultivation has stopped at the archmage stage, which is a pain that Count Puran can never mention in his heart.

"I, me, me! What's wrong with me! Am I wrong! Sophia replied unceremoniously, the two of them have similar status, his father is a magister, and her ancestor Sophia is not a magister! In terms of strength, the strength of the ancestor of their August family is not a little stronger than Karl, who has just been promoted to a magister for less than a hundred years.

And it was the other party who started the trouble first, so Sophia didn't need to get used to him.
