In the Red Scarf Restaurant, Aaron and Kenys sit across from each other, and even though there are only two of them, there are sixteen dishes on the table.

The iced crystal cup contained Baldur's Gate Gin, and Duke Kenes took out an envelope and pressed it on the table, handing it to Aaron: "Take it." ”

"It's ......" Aaron opened the envelope, his pupils dilated slightly.

Inside is a golden ticket!

With this Golden Ticket, he can exchange 1,000 gold coins directly from any Lady of Fortune, Lady Joy, Lady Crafts God of Crafts in any church throughout the kingdom!

The currency of the kingdom is very, very, very complex, and in the northern part of the kingdom alone, there are six currencies.

Platinum Coins - Gold Coins - Silver Gold Coins - Silver Coins - Silver Copper Coins - Copper Coins.

Its exchange rate is also not completely fixed.

In Cormier, the local names for the currency are: 1 Triple Crown (Platinum Coins) = 10 Golden Lion (Gold Coins) = 20 Blue Eyes (Silver Coins) = 100 Falcon (Silver Coins) = 1000 Thumbs (Copper Coins), and Silver Copper Coins are not minted in this country.

The currency of different places is different, and the exchange rate is also different, among which Silvermoon City often mints some special large currencies to disrupt the market, making the monetary system in the north of the entire country very chaotic, and at the same time, it is inevitable that there will be excessive currency in large transactions.

This is inconsistent with the Fortune Lady's vision of breaking down all barriers to trade and allowing the economy of the whole kingdom to circulate fully.

So the Fortune Lady invented this "Golden Ticket", each Golden Ticket is attached to a trace of the Fortune Lady's divine power, merchants use the Golden Ticket for trade, it will greatly facilitate transportation, simplify the process, and play a very positive role in the country's trade and currency circulation.

So where the hell did Lady Fortune go?

"Your Highness, this ......" Aaron tested the Duke's meaning.

1000 gold!

Not a lot, not a lot.

Kenes wanted such a reaction from him, and His Royal Highness the Duke smiled with satisfaction: "I have an old relationship with your grandfather and father, and I was ...... I didn't do anything, this is a little gift from me, you can't refuse, take it, I know that there should be some remaining wealth, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, armor and weapons in the Salian Mansion, but now is the time for you to do something big, you should need a sum of cash, right? ”

"Thank you very much, Your Highness, and may Our Lady of Silver bless you." Aaron immediately got up, put the golden ticket in his arms, and thanked him earnestly.

He does need a sum of cash.

If he hadn't seen what Duke Kenes meant, he wouldn't have been sitting here.

"Make good use of it." Kenes was even more satisfied when he saw that Aaron accepted it without the slightest hesitation.

Manuel gave birth to a good son.

Kenes could have given Aaron a golden ticket of 10,000 if he wanted to, but it was not necessary, the appropriate favor was enough, and the important thing was to make him remember himself.

Towards the end of the meal, Aaron remembered that all his former clansmen had been exiled to Guangze, which was the war zone in charge of Duke Kenes, so he casually asked, "Your Highness, can I ask you a question?" ”

"Just ask." Duke Kenes, after all, was a soldier, and he cut the steak with a knife and fork and motioned for Aaron to ask a question.

"What is the reason for the family's seizure?" Aaron finally asked what he had been wondering about.

"Didn't your father tell you?"

"No, he won't even let me mention it, but I want to know." Aaron said in a deep voice, "You can't always live with your baggage. ”

Duke Kenes put down his knife and fork, and a faint remembrance and displeasure flashed in his amber eyes like a lion, and he nodded when he saw Aaron's firm attitude.

"Your grandfather, Count Salian, has escaped."

"Huh?" Aaron was stunned.

"To be precise, it should be greedy for merit and light on the enemy, and then flee out of fear." The Duke of Kenes spoke of the Tucan invasion.

"Our army is engaged in a battle with the Tucan nomadic army, and the northwest is under the responsibility of the Sallian family and the Spoleto family, when the Count of Salian was passive and unwilling to go all out, the brave and loyal Count Spoleto, seeing that your grandfather was afraid of battle, proposed that he go out to fight against the nomads first, and the Salian army was in ambush at the mouth of the valley and then flanked on both sides."

"Your grandfather agreed to this plan, so Count Spoleto attacked, and the nomadic vanguard saw that Count Spoleto was aggressive and wanted to come desperately, and the momentum was suppressed and the first battle was unfavorable to retreat, and Count Spoleto won a small victory."

"As a result, Count Salion, who was ambushing at the mouth of the valley, learned that Count Spoleto's lone army had actually won the victory, and he could not care about anything in order to compete for military merit, so he immediately ordered the army to attack and abandoned the original plan."

"Count Spoleto defeated only the vanguard of the Tucans, and soon the army of the nomads arrived, and the Count of Spoleto retreated and wanted to lure the Tucans into the valley as planned."

"As a result, your grandfather received news of the defeat of Count Spoleto and the approach of the nomadic army, and Count Salian, who had already left the valley, fled with his army in fear, and threw Count Spoleto to the nomads."

"The Count of Spoleto withdrew to the mouth of the valley, the valley was deserted, and in the face of the siege of the Tucans, more than 3,800 men under the whole army fought hard for eight hours, and all of them were killed, including the Count and his three sons, two daughters, and almost all of his collateral relatives, and the family that had lasted for 800 years was extinct."

Aaron: "............"

Thanks, I'm already starting to get angry.

"You probably can't imagine how angry His Majesty the Former King was when he got the news, it was the first time I had seen him so angry." Duke Kenes looked away and flipped the silver knife and fork with his hand: "Only your father was with His Majesty as a Purple Dragon Knight, and he did not participate in the whole process, so His Majesty did not punish your little family." ”

"So did my grandfather go to the guillotine?" Aaron was speechless, no wonder his father was so secretive about it.

That's too tricky, isn't it?

"Take the knighthood, hang him, leave the whole body, and all the rest of the Sally Security Department except for you and your father are exiled to Guangze and stripped of their surnames, and your Majesty's exact words are, they are not worthy."

Duke Kenes played with the dishes, his amber gaze gradually softened: "I am willing to tell you this because I hope you can take this as a warning, the past has passed, the Count of Salian family has been duly punished, you are the Viscount of Salian, you should not carry those heavy pasts." ”

"Your Highness, I have a request."

"Say."

"Guangze is now under your rule, can you give me a list of the exiles?"

“………… I'll have someone bring it to you when I get back. Duke Kenes looked at Aaron deeply: "But you can't tell anyone!" ”

"Also, in three days I will leave Susar and return to the territory, and the last Salian, I can only and only help you here."

"You're eighteen years old, and you're a little too old for both the spellcaster and the way of the Purple Dragon Knight, and you need to cash in on your talent, kid."

"If a young eagle can't learn to spread its wings, it will never be able to fly."

———— I can't tell people about the dividing line————

Aaron's previous assassination caused a lot of trouble in the city, and Duke Kenes also sent three guards to his door.

There are more guards patrolling the streets, and the Queen's Blade is searching everywhere.

When I got home, my aunt and my cousin were the only ones at home, and my aunt had just bought some cod from the market, and was going to make cod soup for the evening, and my cousin Yuta was playing happily, and when she saw Aaron coming back, she called her cousin and asked him if he had brought him a gift.

Aaron couldn't cry or laugh, he was going to see the princess, not to go shopping!

Thinking that he only had six months to spare, he was not in a good mood and just dealt with his cousin casually.

"Sister Eleanor has been here." Juta said suddenly.

"Oh? When? Aaron was in good spirits.

"She came in the morning, cousin, you weren't there at that time, Sister Eleanor asked if you were hurt, I told my sister that you were fine, she stayed for a while and left." Yuta gestured to her finger: "Also, Sister Eleanor wants me to tell you that she has recently received a commission from the church, and it will take three or four weeks to come back, so that her cousin will pay attention to herself." ”

"Got it." Aaron thought to himself that Miss Pastor had actually come to say goodbye to him, but he was not there, and the next meeting would be at least three weeks away.

"Cousin, when will you invite Sister Eleanor to play at home again?" Cousin Yuta asked, her eyes open.

"When Sister Eleanor comes back, my cousin will personally invite her." Aaron smiled and touched Yuta's head: "Go play, cousin still has something." ”

Back in his study, Aaron sat down and took out three rolls of parchment.

He's going to choose a mentor for himself.

According to the information given by the princess, there are currently three knights above the rank of the Purple Dragon Order who are willing to serve as his mentors.

The first was Knight Chief Graphne, a female Purple Dragon Flag Bearer, about thirty years old, who was said to have been seen by Aaron when he went to the Knights Fortress to write a report that day, and she expressed her willingness to become Aaron's Knight Mentor.

Aaron only took two glances and passed.

Because it is written that she has just divorced her husband......

He went to the Purple Dragon Knights to receive knight training in order to improve his skills and strength, not to rely on his face to rub the relationship! The relationship between master and apprentice was not clear, and in the end it was not what he wanted!

The parchment was thrown aside by him.

There are actually only two people to consider.

The first is Lucian Buckman, who has come to the door once before, he is an old friend of his father, and he is a master of strength.

However, Lucian's flag officer is a very, very strict person, and almost more than half of the probationary knights in his hands cannot pass the assessment, and Lucian never cares about the assessment standards, as long as he thinks he can't do it, then he is not qualified.

The twenty-one-year-old paladin who saved him, who was able to unleash such a powerful supreme slash, had not yet passed Lucian's test to become a full-fledged knight.

I only have six months, one chance, can I do it?

Aaron tugged at the corners of his mouth, and he put Lucian's information aside first.

The second is also an acquaintance, Ian Hartson, the Grand Mentor of the Purple Dragon Knights and Grand Inspector General.

Yes, although Ian was extremely sarcastic about him that day, the Grand Mentor and Grand Inspector General also offered to be his knight mentor, which also confirmed Aaron's conjecture that he deliberately tested him with mean taunts that day to determine if he was mentally traumatized.

Choosing Ian Hutson as his mentor?

Ian has a lot of advantages over Lucian.

The first is his high rank, the Grand Mentor and Grand Inspector General is a few positions in the Order after the Supreme Grand Master, and high status means more resources.

Secondly, Ian's strength is also strong, he is also a master-level powerhouse, and Ian's strength is definitely one or two levels stronger than Lucian.

In the end, Ian has always been very lenient in the assessment, with a failure rate of only about 20%, and he will be released as long as he can meet the standards.

But this guy's personality is just too bad.

As the Grand Inspector General and in charge of logistical assets, Ian Hutson has long since developed serious professional habits.

When a purple dragon knight dies in battle, some people will regret, some people will cry, and some people will rejoice.

Ian Hartson's first instinct was to calculate how much the pension would have to pay and where to pay less.

Seeing a beautiful woman in high heels passing by on the street, some will admire, some will whistle, and some will pretend to be serious.

Ian Hartson's first reaction was "This woman's ankle is so fragile, she will break it with a little more force, a grade 10 disability, a breakage rate of 25%, how much money will be compensated, how can I find a way to refuse this order."

Thinking like this for a long time has distorted Ian's way of thinking and speaking, his mouth is full of vicious words, everything is calculated by his logic of claims, and he belittles anyone and everything as much as possible, in his mouth, everything is worthless, the difference is just a little valuable garbage and worthless garbage.

Aaron knew that Ian might be really thinking about him sometimes, but with the way he spoke, Aaron could endure it for a few days, and he really had to get along for six months...... He was afraid that he would not be able to control the fire with his mentor, and then he would be pressed to the ground by Ian and rubbed.

He's a warlock! Warlocks are supposed to have tempers!

After a moment of meditation, Aaron finally made a decision.

Rise to the challenge!

Six months is six months!

Am I a child of Chaos? How can you impact the legend if you are afraid of the past and the future? How to become a god?

Even the princess can't complete a little test, what qualifications do you have to be the sect master of the evil magician, and what qualifications do you have to face those four good brothers?

Just thinking about being qualified, not wanting to learn something real, what kind of waste is this?

Dry! Aaron slapped the wall.

The next morning, Aaron came to the Purple Dragon Knights Fortress again with an official letter.

As usual, the gate is closed, and the guard says that there is shooting training inside, please go through the side door.

"Boy over there! Don't move! ”

As soon as he entered the side, Aaron heard someone shouting at him, the sound came from the side inside the door, he just turned around, and saw a purple dragon knight wearing an armored vest holding a crossbow aimed at him!

"Don't move!" The guy shouted again, then decisively aimed at Aaron and pulled the trigger.

The short bolt of the crossbow slashed through the air and grazed the top of Aaron's head, and the Lord Viscount could feel the touch of the crossbow brushing against his hair, and the others instinctively leaned back and shrunk their necks, and leaned forward under the instinct to maintain balance, and almost fell to the ground back and forth.

The shooter ignored Aaron, he reloaded with great speed and aimed his crossbow at Aaron again, as if Aaron were his prey.

And around the shooter, a group of apprentices were laughing, laughing at Aaron's embarrassing state.

As a child of chaos, how could Aaron endure such humiliation, he got up from the ground and angrily pushed the crowd away to the shooter, and the apprentices all automatically made way for him because of Aaron's expression.

The shooter had a thatch in his mouth, and when he saw Aaron coming over violently, he reluctantly put down his crossbow with a reluctant face: "Told you not to move, didn't you hear?" ”

Aaron looked at his opponent, he had a messy red hair, a pair of dead fish eyes that looked at people with the whites of his eyes, and his unruly face was facing Aaron, and he was holding his hands on his chest with "Are you mentally retarded?" The expression replied.

He wore only a warrior vest with scales, his toned and powerful arms were full of streamlined muscles, and a pair of simple cropped leggings were made of cheap linen material, which was slightly worn in many places.

"Hey! You're murdering! Aaron directly reached out and grabbed him by the collar and yelled at his face: "In the name of the Silver Holy Mother, does the shooting training of the Purple Dragon Knights have to target living people?" ”

"Murder? What are you kidding? New to the new arrival? The shooter grabbed Aaron by the collar in turn: "Didn't I tell you to stand still?" Are you deaf? What are you dangling around while I'm aiming? If you want to die, just say it! Stop there and watch me shoot your stupider head with an arrow! ”

Past? Aaron turned his head and followed the direction of his finger to find several targets hanging from under the walls of the fortress about thirty meters away, with crossbow bolts stuck in them.

Almost all of them are ten rings, and a few crossbow arrows hit eight or nine rings.

"I don't believe you are stupider than a groundhog, newcomer, if I was aiming at you, your head would have been pierced a long time ago, I told you not to move!" The shooter spat out the thatch from his mouth and spit on the ground with a mouthful of saliva: "You are really mentally retarded, newcomer, get out now, before I have made up my mind to kill you, get out." ”

The shooter shoved Aaron away, turned around, raised his crossbow bolt, and aimed it at Aaron's back.

"Good, very good, so that's why you're using live fire at will?" Aaron reached for the long sword at his waist, Lord Viscount: "Sir, you have committed first-degree murder, can you plead guilty?" Oh no, I was just shooting a target, and he walked between me and the target by himself! ”

Aaron's drawings are colorful.

There was real fire in the shooter's dead fish eyes, and he didn't look at Aaron with the whites of his eyes this time: "Your Excellency, tell me your name." ”

"Aaron Salian." Aaron reached out and grasped the hilt of his sword.

"Disma." The archer finally put down his crossbow, and he stretched his hands to his waist, on which hung a one-handed sword and a knife: "I know you, the last of Salian, you will soon be kissing my shoes, or I don't think you will get out of here alive." ”

"And I will be merciful more." Aaron showed the red Conrad ring on his right index finger: "You just need to kiss my ring." ”

At the same time, the blade is out of the sheath!

Battle, on the verge of breaking out!
