Chapter 7: A Visit to the Baron's House
The next day, Kyle got up early, washed up, and had breakfast under the service of Old White.
Dressed in a mage's simple robe, this is probably the most luxurious set of clothes Kyle has ever had.
After all, mage uniforms are not cheap, and many civilian mages in the Secret Scroll Mage Academy have not been able to afford to buy mage uniforms until now.
Standing in front of the glass mirror made by the alchemist, he smiled with a smile of relief when he looked at himself in the mirror with a slender body and a clean and clear face similar to his previous life, but with a faint and bewildering heartstrings.
"From this day forward, you're just Kyle J. D. Heroise is up. ”
Knock knock~
There was a knock on the door outside the bedroom: "Young Master Kyle, the old slave has been entrusted with a long vacation with the Wangdu Secret Scroll Mage Academy. The carriage and horses outside the courtyard are ready, and when you plan to leave, you can greet the old slave first and let the old slave get ready. ”
Kyle pushed open the door and nodded at Old White, "Sooner rather than later, now." ”
The carriage had already been prepared by Old White, and under the guidance of the coachman, Kyle, who got into the carriage, ran towards Newman, who was next to Lancaster.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, Kyle's eyes were drawn to the idyllic scenery of Lancaster Territory.
"The Duchy of England, Lancaster Territory, I see, the first [Newbie Village] in the closed beta and open beta?"
In the game "Nether Gate", the first version of the Terran kingdom is called the [Ibel Federation], and there are nine principalities under its umbrella to defend the Federation.
Among them, the Duchy of England is also the first big map opened by players after the open beta, although this map is a bit too big, and it is really enough to walk without taking the teleportation array.
Even a novice village like Lancaster can accommodate 50,000 leeks...... I mean the players.
After the carriage had been running wildly for half an hour, the carriage finally began to slow down and stop, and the groom knocked on the carriage door and said, "Sir, it's here." ”
"I'm sorry to wait a little longer." Kyle got out of the car and said to the groom.
Baron Newman's domain is located north of Lancaster, and unlike the three-story house of the Kyle family with its large courtyard, it is just a small three-story building with more elaborate decoration, not to mention a garden.
It is said that it cost a lot of money to build this.
Although Baron Newman is an aristocratic class, it is difficult for the emerging aristocracy to obtain better "core resources" at the same price than the traditional nobles who control huge resources, even if they are richer.
It's like a big estate in Lancaster's Territory, where Kyle can live, but Baron Newman can't build it.
Kyle stepped forward and gently knocked the manual doorbell on the door.
"Wait a minute, come right over."
With the sound of hurried footsteps, the compound quietly opened, and a middle-aged maid who could vaguely see the charming appearance of her youth opened the door.
Kyle made a mage salute and said softly, "Kyle ... D. Heloise, who asked to see Baron Newman. ”
The middle-aged maid returned the salute, looked at the handsome person in front of her, the smile on her face was much more eager, and said with a smile: "But Master Kyle of Lord Anthony's family?" ”
Kyle nodded, and saw the middle-aged maid smile even brighter: "Please come into the house and sit down, Master Newman mentioned you to the young lady a few days ago, and I haven't seen you for a long time, but now I look at it, it's really a hero among people." ”
When he saw the groom at the door following him with a gift box, he smiled and said, "It's really polite that you came to visit and spent so much money." ”
Kyle took the gift box from the groom's hand and said loudly, "It's a gift prepared by my father, so why not give it to me for the first time." ”
But he muttered to himself in his heart, this middle-aged maid who is still a little stylish, and the tone of her voice is not very much like a maid.
He didn't care so much, and under the guidance of the maid, he put away the gift and entered the hall.
After a little leisurely discussion, and with the blessing of social, he soon learned that the maid was the head of Baron Newman's house, just like Old White.
She also has a group of young maids under her command, and the residence is much more lively than Kyle's.
Obviously, even though Baron Newman had spent a lot of money to get a home worthy of his status, the cost of daily living was still much greater than that of the Kyle family.
This is also the norm for the emerging aristocracy, and the enjoyment of daily life is much greater than that of the nobles of the same level, and it can even be called extravagant and wasteful, except for the resources controlled by some traditional nobles that are difficult to obtain, it is really happy.
"Please also ask Master Kyle to sit down first, Master Newman was in the territory this morning, but someone temporarily informed him to visit a guest, calculate the time, and think he can come back soon."
Kyle nodded, not annoyed, he didn't inform him in advance, and it was normal to change the itinerary temporarily, but he just smiled and said, "Then there will be work." ”
The middle-aged housekeeper summoned a maid, poured tea and water for Kyle, reflexively came to Kyle, and asked with a smile: "Master Kyle came over today, but what is the matter with looking for the master?" ”
Kyle thought for a moment, his face showed a little sadness, and said, "Now the news has not spread, my father died last night to encircle and suppress the evil god, so I also came here to consult Uncle Newman's opinion." ”
To be precise, it is to retreat as an advance and test the thoughts of Baron Newman.
Even if he intermarried with the nobles to get rid of the whirlpool of the Charles family, if Baron Newman had an idea in his heart, it might as well stay in the clan and find another way to get out at a critical moment.
As for the statement that Old White said that "Baron Newman could not refuse", it is too absolute, without probing, who knows what Baron Newman thinks.
Gambling on others is not his style.
I saw the middle-aged maid sigh and said softly: "The master also told me that the young lady has made a marriage contract with the children of Lord Anthony's family.
I think it's because of the death of Lord Anthony that it gives you a little more thought. Anyway, after all, this matter still has to be discussed between you and the master, and we can't say much. ”
Kyle thought thoughtfully.
The middle-aged maid warmed a pot of tea for Kyle again, looked at the calm Kyle, and couldn't help but sigh for a while, what a beautiful boy, but worthy of his own miss.
No...... It should be said that Miss's married life will be extremely sweet when you think about it!
She subconsciously looked at the little tail of the succubus, after all, it is rumored that the taste of the succubus, whoever tries it knows.
Thinking of the lamentation and sigh of the old man when she slept with the old man last night, she had a little more thoughts in her heart.
At this time, in the courtyard, a blonde maid quietly pushed open the door and said with surprise to a woman sitting at a table reading a book in the bedroom:
"Miss, Miss, I heard from the people below that Master Kyle from the Charles family is here!"
