Volume 1 Threesome Chapter 94 A Candid Invitation
The reason why Midi proposed this was because he felt that the heat was almost over.
Klasty's appearance here, and the direct identification of his name and identity, is not a coincidence, nor a slip of the tongue, but the result of Midi's deliberation.
Leaving the Elven Court in the depths of the Gran Forest, it was not difficult to contact Asrex's army on the periphery. If Midi doesn't want to reveal his identity now, then he can naturally let the Nightblade Leopard Cavalry escort in the dark, and with Midi's guilt, adventurers can't find out at all.
But Midi still chose to reveal his identity directly.
Because now is the only chance.
It's not the territory of the Asrex family, and it means that everyone can come and go as they please, whether it's parting ways on the spot or accepting an invitation, it's the freedom of other adventurers.
Reserving the right of each individual to choose is in itself the greatest sincerity.
And Midi also believes that the battle and common birth and death along the way are definitely not in vain.
Whether it's with Morningstar, Mountain Wolf, or those craftsmen with their own skills, they have already become one with Midi. In the adventure, there is no such thing as invincible, and even for Midi, there are still many moats that are difficult to cross, but some forbidden circles, some specific labyrinths, in the hands of Norton or half-elves, may be easily solved.
The power of free choice, deep familiarity and understanding, and openness in the moment.
Midi believed that the adventurer in front of him, or even his companions, would not refuse his invitation.
Speaking of which, everyone also knows what Midi means - this "invitation" is not just for communication, or to enhance feelings, it is to invite them to become a member of the Falcon Troupe!
Faced with a formal invitation from the nobles, who had just won a big victory and were in the limelight, some were excited, some were apprehensive, some were eager to try, and some were deep in thought.
After all, most of the adventurers are just civilians, and being able to have this opportunity, and being personally chosen by Midi is equivalent to a step to the sky. However, their knowledge of the nobility was limited to the chit-chatter of the tavern and the singing of the bards, what they needed to do next, what kind of risks they would face, and whether the nobles were really as insidious and cunning as they were in the story and did not spit out their bones, all of which made them hesitate.
The Nightblade Leopard Cavalry stood aside, Midi waited silently, and the whole scene fell silent.
But soon, a light-hearted voice broke the silence.
"It doesn't matter if it's an aristocrat or not, as long as it's Midi's team, my mind won't change. Besides, I'm also looking forward to having a well-funded environment to study true alchemy!" Norton said first, and then showed a sly smile, "The earl who owns two counties must be very rich, Midi, you can't treat me badly!"
"Of course. Midi smiled and nodded slightly.
Norton's statement was expected by him.
Along the way, the old man with round glasses discussed all kinds of alchemy with Midi.
Although Midi does not know the details very well, however, the memories of the previous life are enough to give him a head start, and with the influence of the knowledgeable Witch of the Mist, Midi's general direction in the development of alchemy can be described as far-sighted and whimsical.
Every time he discussed with Norton, his thoughts could just scratch Norton's itch, and even make the future alchemist constantly pour out new ideas.
Not only that, but other craftsmen often come together to discuss together, and after these days, this old man and several other master craftsmen even have the heart to accept Midi as an apprentice, but it is a pity that they can only be regarded as unknown adventurers now, and in the face of such a powerful ghost swordsman, they are really embarrassed to make that kind of suggestion.
And now, after learning the true identity of Midi, Norton and the others have only one feeling - surprise!
What is the greatest need for craftsmen: money, materials, and the protection of a strong force. And now, Midi can provide everything, and he is a strong man with a good reputation, and he has been getting along for many days, and he can't be more familiar, so what else do you need to hesitate about?
Someone takes the lead, and naturally someone responds.
Immediately, the voice of the leader of the Mountain Wolf Mercenary Regiment also sounded.
"Thanks to Lord Midi's kindness, our Mountain Wolf Mercenary Regiment is very happy to accept this invitation, at least, we want to go and have a good look. Kelvin pushed his glasses and said in an enthusiastic tone.
Adventurers are accustomed to respecting the strong, and Midi has proven his strength to everyone, coupled with his status as a nobleman, it is enough for the Mountain Wolf Mercenary Group to choose to take refuge. After all, although it is a first-class mercenary group, it is only a small civil organization after all, and a mere 300 people is nothing to the nobles of the earl title.
Of course, there is also some leeway for what he says, and if he feels that it is not appropriate, he can still choose to leave.
However, Midi believed that when he saw the Falcon in person, Kelvin would choose to stay.
I remember that in the previous life, after the fire of the Gran Forest, the mountain wolf mercenary group also continued to grow in turmoil, and finally became a large mercenary group with more than five thousand people, and the command of this demon scholar made its combat effectiveness directly enter the top ten of the Arad adventurer team, although it is not as good as Midi, but it is enough to enter the ranks of famous generals.
And now, when he thinks that Kelvin will become a member of the Falcon Regiment, it is Midi, who has always been as calm as water, and he also consciously picked up a big bargain.
Fate has changed, and history has changed with it.
With his rebirth, the original butterfly effect is gradually causing a new storm.
The artisan group and the mountain wolf mercenary group all expressed their positions one after another, and on the field, only the last person was left.
"You guy, you have lied to me for so long...... Audair stared straight at Midi for a long time, and finally spit out such a sentence.
As soon as the words came out, she regretted it.
Midi was not obligated to explain anything to Morningstar, and he provided countless conveniences along the way. If there is no Midi here, let alone exploring the royal court, a third-rate mercenary group with only more than forty people, whether it can escape the pursuit and plunder of the blood blade is a question. And if it's true, it seems that in the beginning, it was Midi who saved Erin, but Audair misunderstood Midi and launched an attack.
No matter how you look at it, it is Morningstar who owes Midi love, and a lot of it. Besides, even if you don't look at favors, in the face of an invitation from a truly powerful nobleman, no qualified regimental commander should say such words.
But Audrey couldn't help but lose her temper at this moment.
Because deep down, she has always thought that she and Midi are closer. You don't have to tell the mountain wolf, you can hide it from Norton and the others, but why don't you even reveal any news about yourself, and cover it tightly?
Even if it's a regimental leader, even if it's an adventurer, Audrey is a girl after all.
And no matter which girl she is, she wants to be treated special by the people she cares about.
So, under the impact of Midi's unmasking identity, an careless, wayward complaint blurted out from Audrey's mouth.
Audair sighed secretly in her heart, knowing that she was definitely messed up by herself this time. This is simply dismantling Midi's platform in public, if the other party doesn't reveal his identity, it's okay, it's just a problem between companions. But now, Midi has officially identified herself, and in the eyes of the half-elves, such a confrontation must be intolerable for any nobleman.
However, Midi did not become as cold as Audrey had imagined, on the contrary, the rising star of the Duchy of Belmar only showed a wry smile.
"Sure enough......, can't you let go of it? How about I make some more amends in my own name?" said Midi, looking at Audrey earnestly.
For Midi, who has the memories of the previous life, whether it is Audrey or Kelvin, the future achievements are limitless, they are all first-class talents, and the upcoming turbulent times will become the fertile soil for their growth, and wars and crises again and again will make them stronger and braver.
It's totally worth it to be able to bring such talent under your command and pay a little extra price.
Moreover, this is by no means a simple calculation of benefits, a measure of value.
Now that she has experienced a common adventure, Midi also feels that she does have an obligation to give an explanation.
"Compensation?" Audair was taken aback, and quickly shook her head, but her heart settled down.
It turns out that although this guy has a high status, he is still the boy he met at the beginning.
In this case, why worry that the other party will be more and more distant from you?
Thinking like this, the corners of Audele's mouth couldn't help but curve into a sweet smile, and then, she suddenly changed her tone and said, "I'm just complaining casually...... You don't have to take it seriously, but I'd like to make a request. ”
"Listen up. Midi replied earnestly.
"It's not just a group of falcons, I hope you can lead us to see your castle, your territory, and your people as the master, okay?" Audair had regained her usual expression, however, it seemed to be a little different.
"It's my pleasure. Midi replied with a smile, bowing slightly in a noble manner.
