Chapter 401: Straight to the point
Caterina and Erin silently remembered for a long time, and finally shook their heads at Leon at the same time.
The young man sighed and said, "I see, all right, let's go first." ”
Caterina had just taken a few steps before she slowly stopped and whispered, "Leon, I'm really worried about Sophia, in case she ......"
Li Ang walked up to the girl, put his hands on her shoulders, and said warmly: "I understand, in fact, I am also worried, but this kind of affection does not have much meaning except that it will interfere with my judgment, and I have lived this alone...... Ahem, since my family died, I've slowly learned not to be affected by this kind of affection, so that I can keep myself awake, you ...... Be strong, too. ”
"Besides, we haven't figured out what Sophia's situation is yet, right? Even if we really can't find Sophia, then we'll try our best to keep looking for it!"
"Hmm...... All right," the knight maiden said softly.
When Leon let go of Katarina, Erin on the side spoke: "Leon, if this matter was done on purpose, do you think it is possible that it actually wants to target you or Campbell?"
"Very likely," Leon said, and then his fists clenched, and a gleam flashed in his eyes, "Let's wait if we can confirm it at last...... Whoever it is, that's really me off. ”
......
When Leon and the two young girls arrived at the table prepared for the guests, there were already five people seated, in addition to Donne, Peg and Wayne, and of course Duncan, who would appear wherever there was food.
In addition, there is Kaka.
It is estimated that Jeff has already introduced this to the nobles that this is an alchemy master and a leading master, so Don and Peg have a very good attitude towards Kaka, and they don't care about Kaka's dwarf identity at all.
So the luncheon went quite well, and Earl Don was very discerning, and after about an hour, he took Peg and Wayne to leave the table early on the grounds of physical fatigue, and returned to the residence prepared for them to rest, and before leaving, Don also told the young people that they would leave for the royal capital early the next morning, and if there was something in the territory, Leon did not have to deliberately entertain him, nor did he need to come to see him off.
When the knowledgeable Earl Don and his party left, there was a slight silence, and almost no one spoke except Duncan, who had been munching heartily from beginning to end.
"Duncan, are you really willing to stay in my territory?" said Leon suddenly.
The reason why he asked this sentence so straightforwardly was that he was in a bad mood and didn't want to try around the bush anymore, and secondly, if he didn't ask directly now, maybe he wouldn't have much chance to ask in a while.
Duncan raised his head, swallowed the food that was full of food in his mouth, and burped again, before he spoke, "I said that as long as you can eat such delicious food every day, it is okay to stay." ”
What do you mean by that...... At the same time, you are willing to help me with things?" Leon continued to drive straight in, not shying away at all.
Duncan smiled, "If you can pay me the same as them, it's okay to do something for you." ”
There was silence at the table again, and Kaka had been concentrating on his food, as if he had no idea what was going on around him, while Katerina and Jeff, the two people who had seen Duncan's strength, looked happy and a little surprised.
They could all see that Duncan was at least a fourth-order powerhouse, and Leon didn't seem to know each other well, why did Duncan show kindness as soon as he came, and kept saying that he wanted to stay?
Ulterior motives, other ulterior motives? It doesn't look like it, as for Duncan himself, it's because of the food and the same remuneration as everyone else...... No one paid any attention to these two obvious excuses.
Leon spoke again, "Duncan, do you know my grandfather?"
He asked more directly, for Leon, a fourth-order powerhouse, who used to be a soldier, didn't know much about himself, and now he took the initiative to stay in Campbell, if it wasn't for the other party's brain being broken, it was definitely related to his grandfather.
"Lord Darren doesn't know anyone," Duncan smiled, "besides, you already know that I used to be a soldier, so of course the name of Earl Darren is more familiar to me." ”
Duncan...... You know I didn't mean that," Leon propped his arms on the table and looked at the other party seriously, "It's all my own people here, and it's okay if you say it." ”
"If you don't want to say it...... Please forgive me for not allowing you to stay, and don't blame me for speaking directly, because this is the kind of person I am, and I will not accept someone who cannot gain my trust to stay around. ”
"And, in fact, if you and I swap places, I guess you'll be just like me, right?"
Duncan swallowed the food that had refilled his mouth, then wiped his greasy lips with the cloth in front of him before raising his eyes to meet the young man's eyes.
"It looks like I'm serious, I think I'm going to be kicked out if I don't say it......" Duncan shook his head, looking a little helpless.
"For my food...... For my gold coins...... Let's just introduce myself briefly," Duncan said with a grin.
