Chapter 55: I Thought We Were Friends

"Are you leaving?" Wade looked at Evan, and somehow he felt a little reluctant.

"yes." Evan shook his head and smiled bitterly, then let out a long sigh. "The task I received was to help Baron Claire take Tilling Town, and if Tilling Town has been taken for so long, if you don't go back, the Earl will not be able to explain."

"Okay." Wade thought for a moment and threw a magic scroll to the other party. "This is my gift to you, have a good trip."

"Yo?" Evan picked up the scroll and glanced at Wade in surprise. "What, reluctantly?"

"No, it's just a pleasure to work with you." Wade shrugged, saying he had no intention of doing so. "You're actually quite interesting, if I had known you earlier, maybe we could have become friends."

"Huh?" Evan stared at Wade with a sad expression, raised the scroll in his hand and said. "So, I thought you gave me this, and we were already friends."

When Evan said this, it was Wade's turn to be stunned, and he spoke a little incoherently. "Of course we are, no, we're not, no, are we friends, no, I think we might be friends, but that's just what I think, I don't know what you think."

Seeing Wade's appearance, Evan burst out laughing.

"Forget it, I won't tease you. You're a friend, I'm kind of a friend. You're so much better than Baron Claire, you don't want him, you can't guess what's going on at all. ”

Wade echoed with feeling. "Although I grew up with him, I also felt that he was a stranger. I used to think I knew him well, but now I realize that this is not the case at all. ”

"There are not many people like him, and some people are born to be nobles." Evan shook his head, as if talking to himself. "There is a category of people who are destined to be different from ordinary people, don't look at them and other people, but the difference between them and ordinary people, you can understand it if you experience it carefully."

"What's the difference, does Claire have it?" Wade was a little confused.

"Yes, that's the pride of genius, a pride that comes from the heart, and it doesn't usually show itself, but when you experience it carefully, you can feel it."

"Proud?" Wade thought for a moment, remembering the conversation he had with Claire outside Trois-Rivières, and Claire spoke with a bold demeanor as if she didn't doubt that she could do it. I don't know where a knight with only a second order gets his courage.

It was precisely because Claire believed in his own look that Wade did not doubt whether he could do it, perhaps, this is what Evan said about pride.

Wade nodded, agreeing. "You have a point."

"So..."Evin wanted to persuade Wade to follow Claire, it was better to pay attention, because with this kind of person, there are generally only two ends, either to get rich together, or to play together. But thinking that he and Wade have only known each other for a long time, and Claire and Wade have known each other for so many years, they changed their words when they came to their mouths. "So, let's not talk about it."

"That's right." Evan pulled a silver coin from his bosom and threw it to Wade. "Since you gave me a gift, I will also give you a gift, don't let you say that my friend is greedy for money and unkind in the future."

Wade glanced at the silver coin, but didn't see anything special, and put it away with a smile. One dinar of gold is equal to 20 nats of silver, and the magic scroll he gave away is worth hundreds of dinars in exchange for one nat of silver, and he said that he was not greedy for money.

But Wade won't debunk Evan either, just wave his hand.

"Okay, okay, I received your wishes, be careful to go back and don't be beaten by Lord Earl."

Seeing Wade's disgust for the silver coin, Evan was a little amused, if the other party knew the true value of the silver coin, he didn't know how he would feel. But friend, sometimes you don't need to explain so much.

"Don't throw away the silver coin, you take it and go to the tavern on Simon Street in Three Rivers City, find the tavern owner, maybe it can save your life when it matters most.

Let's go, don't send it! ”

......

"Uncle went to the royal capital this time, nothing happened, the royal capital is still the same?" Count Wright looked at the dusty old man in front of him and asked with a concerned expression.

The old man sitting in Earl Wright's study at the moment, with Erlang's legs crossed and looking impatient, was the same old man who had made a brief appearance in Tilling Town before and drank with Norman and Bart.

The old man's name was Berg Morris, and he was the Grand Magician of the Morris family.

"Hard?" Berg raised an eyebrow, a strange smile on his face. "I'm not working hard, but you're going to have to work hard for the rest of the time."

Count Wright's face changed slightly, and he asked with a solemn expression.

"Uncle is in the royal capital, and he also heard those rumors? Could it be that those rumors are still somewhat credible? ”

As one of the powerful nobles of the kingdom, Count Wright naturally has his own source of information, but he is in the eastern part of the kingdom, and most of him does not know much about the affairs of the royal capital and the west, and it is difficult for his power to be projected so far. After all, he was only an earl, and the Morris family was not the top family in the kingdom.

"Rumors?" Berg scoffed at this, and he said leisurely as he plucked his ears out of his manner.

"I've confirmed it in the Mage's Guild, and the old king has made up his mind. It seems that the strength shown by the Grand Duke of the East after integrating the East a hundred years ago impressed the old king very much, and he very much wants to follow suit. ”

"The Grand Duke of that year was indeed a generation of heroes." Speaking of the former Grand Duke of the East, even the Earl of Wright, who was born in the Morris family who made a fortune by stepping on the corpse of the other party, is also quite admired.

As a great lord who ruled a large territory, he knew very well that the Eastern Grand Duke was able to integrate the eastern part of the country back then, and it was far from relying on the strength of the family, otherwise several other Grand Dukes would have done the same thing a long time ago.

"It's a pity, if it weren't for the royal family doing something like that at the last minute, he might have succeeded. Maybe now, there will be one more powerful Terran kingdom on the mainland. Earl Wright's words were full of regret, and I didn't know how much of it was true.

"If he succeeds, he won't have a good life for us." Berg pursed his lips, a little disdainful of Count Wright's performance, he has been a lord for a long time, and this bad habit has become more and more.

"Do you think it's the power of the royal family alone that can tear the entire East apart? Don't throw all the pots to the royal family, our family didn't pull back then, otherwise how do you think this Three Rivers City came from. ”

"Uh..." Count Wright hadn't been scolded for a long time, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, but thinking of the identity of the other party, not only his elder, but also the strength of the guardian of the family, he could only endure it silently. Uncle told me this today, did magic come to discipline me? ”

"No, I just wanted to remind you that it's better to stop the war with Marcas, and not to give anyone else a chance to attack us when the situation is delicate."
