Chapter 6: A Conversation with the "Father-in-law".
With insincere prayers, Anthony had a lot of thoughts.
When the chanting in the church was over, and the archbishop had stopped reciting the canon, he slowly opened his eyes and met the eyes of Earl Hall, who seemed to be looking at him.
"Count Hall, I have a few words I'd like to talk to you about alone, is that okay?"
A blind dodge can only usher in the taunt of the enemy, it is better to directly face the difficulties!
Knowing that he couldn't hide, Anthony took a deep breath and plucked up the courage to speak.
Mrs. Irma and Mr. Caro looked at him in amazement, their eyes full of doubt, as if they were puzzled by what their son wanted to do, but they did not say anything to stop him.
After all, Earl Hall hasn't spoken yet.
"Good, I like young people with courage."
Count Hall also seemed a little surprised, but then quickly reacted and said, a smile of appreciation flashed in his blue eyes.
It wasn't that he wanted to elevate Anthony, but that among Audrey's suitors, few nobles dared to face his dilemma except for princes or some duke heirs.
Maybe that's what Audrey likes about him?
Glancing at his daughter without a trace, Earl Hall got up and led the way, leaving the church side by side with Anthony.
He, want to pursue himself?
Audrey looked at the backs of the two of them with complicated eyes, remembering what happened last night, and the ears hidden under her hair began to gradually become pink.
That's what he said about the chance?
Outside the Church of St. Samuel.
Earl Hall paused, touched his mustache, looked at the street with the flow of people and carriages not far away, and said without looking back.
"I'm an earl, but I'm also a father, so I don't value Audrey's future gentleman or status, and I don't object to it as long as she thinks it's suitable."
"But you also have to know that this world is dangerous, although there will be a goddess to protect us, there will always be accidents, at this time, you may know the importance of being in a high position."
"Do you understand?"
Count Hall said indifferently, clutching the cane in his hand, watching the flow of people in the distance.
Isn't this a typical father-in-law's face...
The corners of Anthony's mouth twitched covertly, but he still pretended to be "I understand" and nodded.
"Mr. Earl, I think I should understand what you mean, and I will try to get a knighthood."
As early as the birth of the idea of wanting to pursue Audrey, Anthony could have predicted today's scene.
After all, no matter what world it is, what father would not want his daughter to have a good future?
What's more, it's still in such a dangerous and mysterious world.
It's just that if you want to get the title of the Kingdom of Rune, it's really not an easy matter...
Seeing that Anthony understood the meaning of his words, Count Hall did not say anything more, but just patted Anthony on the shoulder, and then turned and walked towards the church.
It seems that the purpose of his trip is just to tell Anthony that if he wants to pursue Audrey, he must first have a corresponding status and identity.
Even Audrey loves him!
"What a haughty Mr. Earl..."
Looking at the departing figure of Earl Hall, Anthony stood in place for a long time, but there was no frustration in his heart, but some excitement.
At least he had found a way to gain Earl Hall's approval.

"How's that going on?"
Back at Slow Manor, Anthony summoned his personal valet and asked.
After drinking the "Scavenger" potion and knowing its abilities, he sent his personal valet to investigate a matter related to his ability to obtain extraordinary traits that were not accessible to ordinary people.
"Master Anthony, I have entrusted a private investigator to investigate what you have ordered, and there is indeed a house on William Street that has changed hands several times, and it is said that it was sold by a bankrupt viscount twenty or thirty years ago."
"Due to the dilapidated nature of this house and its bad past, the owner of this house still wants to transfer it, and at your request, I bought the house at a low price, and this is the contract for the house."
Only at this time will Anthony feel the treatment and benefits that he can enjoy as the son of a nobleman.
He took the page from the valet's hand, waved his hand to go down, and smiled.
That's right, this house is the site left by the Tudor family in the original book, where the "Red Angel" Medici was sealed.
Of course, Anthony wanted to find this house, naturally not to find Medici, he didn't want to expose himself to the eyes of those strong people so quickly.
All he wants is the extraordinary characteristics and magical items that still exist in that underground ruins in the original book, but in the current time period, they are still in that underground ruins!
Anthony had a smile in his eyes, and with a quick grab, he let the trench coat on the coat rack return to his hands.
He wanted to go out and enjoy the night that was unique to Beckland.
Kennard Street.
As a street in Queens Beckland, even at night, there is a constant flow of people.
The brightly dressed street girls roam the streets and alleys, bringing a touch of warmth and touch to every man who feels lonely and lonely at night.
Of course, it's worth it for a few pennies or a few soles!
The season of March is when spring is approaching and the cold wind has not yet left.
Anthony tightened his trench coat tightened, looking at the noisy, but unusually unfamiliar street, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed and dazed.
At this time, he felt as if he was on the spot, the feelings of Mr. Ke and the Emperor.
It's really a stranger in a foreign land, and I miss my relatives every festive season...
dragged a verse in his heart, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of Anthony's mouth.
Perhaps, like Mr. Ke, he is just a backhand artificially left behind as an anchor point for future awakening.
Thinking about it this way, I really feel pessimistic...
Anthony shook his head helplessly, and when he looked at the street girl who was picking up customers not far away, he inadvertently suddenly glanced at a figure, and his pupils shrank suddenly, and then he quickly turned his gaze, as if admiring the street girls, and let the figure he saw disappear from his sight.
How could it be him?
Squinting his eyes slightly, Anthony carefully communicated the breath of the immortal stele, so that he was in a state of not being divined and not being detected.
This is the ability he mastered after becoming a Sequence 9 "Scavenger", and he was able to mobilize the breath of the Immortal Stone Tablet to a small extent, so that he and Ke were always above the gray mist, and they were able to hide themselves.
Of course, the effect may be better than that of the total source fort.
Squinting slightly, Anthony finally dared to look at the place where the afterglow had swept before, although the figure was gone, but the previous glimpse was enough for him to confirm some physical characteristics.
A middle-aged man with dark blonde hair, one-eyed, a high nose bridge, deep facial features like a statue, and no wrinkles
