"What?"

Marilyn's answer made Rieg stunned directly.

Marilyn, however, did not give Rige time to be amazed.

"There's no need to ask this question at all, especially for you." Marilyn looked at Rieg and pointed straight to the center, "Didn't you also willingly give up the opportunity to become a nobleman?" ”

Marilyn wanted to convey what Rieg could understand.

"In your opinion, being a princess is definitely better than being a squire, but in the eyes of ordinary people, being a nobleman is definitely better than being a commoner, but you voluntarily gave up the opportunity to become a nobleman, in this case, why do you think that it would be a bad thing for a princess of a kingdom to choose to be a squire?"

Marilyn's voice was slightly sarcastic.

"Do you know what a princess is?"

"The princess can only live in the palace at ordinary times, and no matter where she goes, there will be people around her, either she can only stay in the so-called safe places prescribed by others, or she can dress brightly when others are in need, and go around in circles in front of others to show the nobility and status of the royal family.

"Even if they are not to be outdone, in order to get rid of the identity of the jewelry to practice swords, work hard to practice magic, and finally rely on themselves to become famous, it is just to add one or two more good comments to their jewelry."

"Then, when the age is up and the kingdom is in need, then it will be arranged to go on a blind date with some high-ranking big man, and it may even be that the blind date process is waived, and the marriage contract is directly betrothed and used for marriage."

As she spoke, Marilyn's voice became sarcastic.

"The so-called princess, in fact, has no freedom at all, she has been living in the framework arranged by others, and living according to other people's wishes, compared to this, what is it to be a squire?"

"As an acolyte, all you need to obey is the orders of the person under the contract."

"But as a princess, you need to obey the orders of many people, and even a knight can say to you in front of you, 'No, it's too dangerous, you can't go out.'"

With that, Marilyn lowered her eyes.

"You may not believe it, but in fact, many princesses have expectations in their hearts about becoming other people's attendants."

"For them, who are accustomed to seeing all kinds of struggles, it is better to expect that they can conclude a contract with a kind and gentle magician than to unrealistically expect a prince charming to be freed from their cage, or to expect that they will marry a nobleman who can be good to them in the future."

"At the very least, so they don't have to marry someone they don't like."

Marilyn's words reveal a deep distrust of the existence of "aristocracy".

This is quite similar to Rieger.

You can't expect every superior to be a gentle and kind person like Yaoya Sanyashiki, who treats a small subordinate as if he were his own child.

Born in the aristocracy, the most inevitable thing is all kinds of deceit, as well as all kinds of temptations from the external environment.

You can't say that there aren't any good people who grow up in this environment, but even if there are simple and kind characters, I'm afraid they are all rare.

Instead of expecting a nobleman to be a good person, it is better to expect a magician who has achieved amazing results through his own efforts and has made all kingdoms have to pay attention to him as an object worthy of allegiance.

In this way, even if it is serving tea and pouring water for others, I am afraid it is much better than living in chains.

That's what Marilyn wanted to say.

"Of course, it is not without a princess in history who ended up with the wrong person and became a victim of tragedy."

Marilyn's voice became blank again.

"But compared to this kind of example, the princess who becomes depressed after marrying a nobleman and ends up not being happy for the rest of her life is much more overwhelming."

Hearing this, Rieger was speechless.

That's when Marilyn turned the conversation back to where she started.

"Personally, I'm hoping that the boy will find a master worthy of allegiance."

Marilyn's "that child" is naturally referring to Liz.

"Because of her background, the child's treatment and environment in the palace are much worse than that of an ordinary princess, and even the king almost forgot about her before she became a swordsman, and even deliberately prevented her from associating with other royal children."

"Whether this was a decision made out of good intentions and did not want to see the child ostracized and bullied by his own children, or if there was some other reason, no one knows."

"But if she is allowed to remain in the palace, one day, the child will also usher in misfortune."

That's actually what Marilyn wanted to say when she left Riger behind.

"I know what you mean, I don't want to accept bondage, especially from the royal family." Marilyn paused and said, "But you don't have to resist so much, it's not that this matter can't be changed." ”

Rieg looked at Marilyn in surprise and wondered, "What does this mean?" ”

"It means that it's not you who are in a hurry, but those people in the royal family, the king." Marilyn said expressionlessly, "He is the one who wants you to conclude this contract the most." ”

Hearing this, Li Ge's heart moved.

"You mean, I have room to negotiate?"

Indeed, this is not non-negotiable, and if the existing conditions cannot be accepted, it is entirely possible to make things as best of both worlds as possible until they are acceptable.

"You are the youngest Sword Saint ever, only 17 years old Sword Saint, no one has ever seen before, and it is estimated that there will be no one to come, no one can imagine how far you will grow in the future." Marilyn said, "Coupled with the fact that you are also a tactical magician, the royal family definitely does not want to offend you easily, lest they force you to their opposite." ”

"They just want to make sure that you don't use it against them, against the country."

"That being the case, as long as this goal can be achieved, they will be willing to compromise, willing to back down, and let you offer whatever conditions they can accept."

After speaking, Marilyn concluded with one sentence.

"If you really think it's possible, then I hope you'll think about it carefully."

"Anyway, having an extra good squire isn't a bad thing for you."

"Right?"

With that, Marilyn bowed to Rige.

"That's all I have to say, the rest is up to you."

With these words, Marilyn continued to push the tea cart, crossed Rieger, and left the place.

Rig looked at the maid's back and fell into deep thought.

"Think about it...... Is it? ”

Rig grunted, and finally left the place with the thoughts in his heart.

…………

The Franzel Villa, in one room.

This is the room that Rieg used to recuperate from his injuries and lay down for a full month.

Although this room was once burned by the [High Sword of Victory] along with this mansion, under the restoration of the court magician, this room is still the same as the room where Li Ge lived before, and it is hard to imagine that this room is no longer the original one.

Rig returned, closed the door, and sat down.

He was thinking.

Ponder whether you really want to take Liz as your squire.

Before, he felt that he didn't need an attendant.

The purpose of the squire's existence is to protect the magician, so that the magician can calmly perform magic in the melee without being interrupted by the enemy.

Rige didn't need such an attendant.

A swordsman himself, and he also knows the art of singing in parallel, Li Ge can calmly and calmly perform magic even in the heat of battle, so why worry about being interrupted and need to be protected?

He's not a big guy either, he doesn't have to walk around with his entourage, and he's happy to be alone.

So, before that, Rig had never thought of taking in attendants.

Now, because of Marilyn's persuasion, Rieger began to think seriously.

As a result, Rig discovers that there is a time when he may need an attendant to protect him.

"Dimensional shuttle."

That's right, it's dimensional shuttle.

Every time he travels to another dimension, only his consciousness enters the dimensional passage and shuttles to other worlds, while his body remains in this world all the time.

Although it was only a short day, on this day, the body that Li Ge left in this world was undoubtedly defenseless, and it could be crushed and flattened by others at any time.

Even if Rig could use magic to protect himself before he traveled to the dimension, magic would only have a limited protective effect.

Just like last time, although the [Tulle Breath] cast by Rig is a defensive magic that claims to be able to resist all attacks, its duration is limited, and the defensive effect is also limited, if someone attacks Rieger, can this defensive magic still protect Rig for a whole day?

Definitely not.

Therefore, when Rige was traveling to the dimension, his body left in the Akaxia continent still had the possibility of encountering danger.

Even if this possibility is not high, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if.

What if it happens?

It's not like no one had ever entered Rige's room in an attempt to assassinate him.

Not to mention, Rieg has now become a focal point, and his reputation has spread all over the mainland, and there may be people plotting to harm him.

For example, the countries that are hostile to the Kingdom of Jinas will definitely think of murdering a promising 17-year-old Juggernaut, lest this young Juggernaut appear in front of their army in the future, or even in front of the border.

In this way, if they find out the information that Rieg hides in his room all day every once in a while and sleeps, it can be said that the assassination plan for this will happen 100%.

At this time, it is very important to have an attendant who can be trusted and can protect him at all times.

"Want to try it?"

Rig hesitated.

Thinking of that pitiful pretty face, Rieger's frowning brow finally relaxed.

"Then let's try it."
