Levi sent the fainting Arya back to the plane, then walked out of the study.

By this time, Layton's wounds had been healed by Mira and she rested against the stone wall.

"Mila, take your father to rest first. ”

Mira carefully replied and helped Layton up on the ground, while Levi asked Owen to pick Dicks up.

Dicks is interrupted by Layton in various parts of his body, and he needs to recover well from the corpse rearing place.

"Mage...... Master, my son Dicks what the hell is going on with him......"

A hint of pain and worry flashed across Layton's face, Dix was involved in the family's inheritance, and it was also the key to his heart.

"If you're not used to it, you can call me Mage, it doesn't matter what you're called. ”

The actual relationship that Levi cares about doesn't matter if he calls the master or not, and it also hides his identity.

"Dicks, he's still your son, but he's ...... I have amnesia, and how to recover my memory is also a problem I am facing now. ”

He didn't deceive, and his younger brother Owen's memory is still blank.

"Dicks is still fertile now?"

Layton asked cautiously, and this question was what he was most concerned about.

Levi shook his head regretfully,

"I don't know, but I'm sure that instead of pinning your hopes on Dicks, you might as well find more mistresses and try it yourself. ”

“......”

Such an answer was expected by Layton, but it shattered his final thoughts. Without asking, Layton went back to the bedroom with Mila's help.

Levi pursed his lips, in front of the nobles, the heir was indeed a tool to continue the family bloodline.

Then he went downstairs and returned to the hall, where a dozen corpses lay at the feet of the minotaur and the turnip, some of them guarded and some dressed as ordinary attendants.

"Your Excellency,"

Radish scratched her head, "They rushed in, and we didn't know what to do with it, so we killed them all." ”

"Kill it, kill it, it's not a big deal. ”

Levi said casually, his eyes glancing over the minotaur. This time they were all restrained and did not torture and kill.

"You go back and rest first, the door is too small for you to get out, so leave the cleaning to someone else." ”

With that, the portal appeared next to Levi, and after the ogre and the minotaur saluted him goodbye, he stepped into the teleportation circle and left the hall.

The rest of the people who had nothing to do also returned to the plane, except for some of the guards, only Wood was busy moving the corpses back to the undead plane.

............

There was a lot of commotion at the Baron Castle, and the defenders of Bobi were quick to react.

The gates of the castle were closed, and they could only stare outside.

The leader was a middle-aged knight, anxious to burn the fire, thinking about whether to prepare the machinery for the siege.

Fortunately, not long after the middle-aged knight's war horse paced in place, Leighton's figure appeared on the high wall of the castle.

"Lord Baron!"

The middle-aged knight was a little nervous, and looking at Layton's current appearance, he knew that the other party was seriously injured.

"Things in the castle have been settled, you go back. ”

"Are you alright?!"

There was such a big movement in the castle, and Leighton now appeared alone again and said that it was okay, and the middle-aged knight couldn't help but wonder in his heart,

But he couldn't directly ask Layton if he was threatened, so he could only use his eyes and tone to probe,

"Your Excellency, ...... Do you need me to do anything?"

As for the hint of the middle-aged knight, Layton seemed not to see it, and said expressionlessly: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry about the affairs here, and the guards in the town should send more guards to prevent Celtic people from mixing in." ”

"Yes, Lord Baron. ”

The middle-aged knight looked at Layton with doubts, then quickly looked at the castle, reluctantly pulled the reins of the war horse, and left the castle with the soldiers.

After the knight left, Mira helped Layton down the wall.

Most of the wounds on his body have been healed, but the wounds on his chest and left rib are still far from being healed, and it will take time to heal.

Moreover, Layton's body is now physically exhausted, and someone can help him to make it easier.

"Master Mage, it's all settled. ”

Levi in front of Layton nodded with satisfaction, "In the future, you will still be responsible for the affairs of the Joseph family, I will not interfere too much, and the relationship between us does not need to be announced."

Just like today's events, shut up the people in your castle and don't reveal a word to outsiders. ”

Levi's identity in Kenriwa is already known, and it is better to keep a low profile as for the Joseph family being controlled by him.

Of course, Levi didn't expect those soldiers' mouths to be as solid as the city walls, but the core content was not exposed, and the rest was left to others to guess.

"Yes, Master Mage. Layton replied.

"Go and explain the matter to the captured guards, and then bring them out. According to the report of my subordinates, there are a few tough guys in it who resisted before they died, and you can reuse them. ”

Levi took out a folded piece of straw paper, and when he spread it out, there was Valina's crooked font on it.

"The names are all written on it, and there are a few who have sold the Joseph family clean before they can be dealt with here. ”

Layton took the paper, read the names carefully, and then bowed to Levi and walked to the dungeon where the guards were being held.

In this battle, almost half of the guards of the Baronial Castle were killed, and only about 30 of the 120 were captured intact, and nearly 40 were wounded.

There were four of them who easily betrayed the Joseph family, and they were the first to surrender.

The guards in the Baron's Castle are all carefully selected, and they are not the family's die-hard guards, but they are also trustworthy old men, so there must be something wrong with these four people.

The first thing Layton did when he entered the dungeon was to hang the four men up for interrogation.

Sure enough, with Valila's help, all four of them were found, and all but one of them were spies.

One of the spies was from the Rhine family, one from another family adjacent to the Joseph family's domain, and the last one was a temple under the command of the goddess of love.

The guards who obey the orders of the goddess of eros are not actually believers, but fall in love with a maid named Sally in the town's tavern.

Sally told him that it was the guidance of the goddess of eros that allowed them to find each other, so the two of them wanted to repay the goddess of eros by helping the temple to find out about the Joseph family.

The reason why this guard surrendered so happily was that he didn't want to lose his life and was able to see his lover Sally again.

What the three spies leaked out of their mouths was not small, and their Leighton, who had planned to be executed immediately, changed his mind and decided to imprison all three spies.

Among them, the Rhine family and the spies of the temple were all of Levi's concern, and it was Valila who signaled him to report these two things before making a decision.

As for the spies of the other family, it was just a matter of convenience, and in Layton's mind, he might be the cause of the next war.

Leighton then frees all the captured guards, and blends the battle with the Celts with some intrigue to explain it vaguely.

The guards listened confusedly, but also summed up one sentence in a clever way, the betrayers between them have been cleared, and now the living will be reused and rewarded, and the rest should not be asked.

The death of his former companion would inevitably anger some of the guards, but as a nobleman, Layton has given a low enough gesture.

And all the guards who earned the respect of the others, whether they died in battle or not, Leighton gave enough pensions and rewards, so that only a few voices of criticism remained.

Layton has written down all such people, and he will dispose of them one by one after that.

Afterwards, the guards got dressed and left the dungeon with their swords and shields.

At this time, the sun had already set, and the afterglow of the setting sun still pierced the guards from opening their eyes.

The noise of the morning battle was gone, and the corpses that had been lying all over the castle had been disposed of, and the servants of the castle were cleaning the blood on the ground and stone walls.

Under their quick movements, the Baron's Castle was cleaned up, and the guards returned to their respective positions one after another, assuming the responsibility of guarding.

By this time, the Baronial Castle had been restored as if nothing had happened.

At night, in the castle hall.

As the master of the Joseph family, his subordinates loyal to Levi had to prepare a sumptuous dinner to entertain everyone no matter what.

Although not long ago, they met with swords.

But Levi really didn't like the dinner that Layton had prepared.

The best food a noble baron can come up with is nothing more than some fresh barbecue, steak, fish soup and mushroom soup, and some fruit and dairy products in between.

The ingredients are also very fresh, but Levi's taste has been completely nurtured by Lilith now, and ordinary food entering his mouth is full of picky questions, and it is difficult to swallow.

What's more, Levi, as a Star Relic, does not have a strong primitive desire for food, and wants to eat more for the sake of taste.

But as the owner of Leighton, Levi couldn't go too far, and after eating a few bites of the steak, he tasted the fruit wine in the cup.

Levi was joined by Arya, Owen, Valila, and Ciel, but none of them ate much.

The Dark Elves love meat, but they are just as accustomed to Lilith's craft as they are, and they put down their cutlery when they are half-full.

As zombies, Arya and Owen can't eat ordinary food, so Levi prepares two bottles of fresh blood for the two as snacks.

Not Levi's blood, of course.

"Baron Layton, your fruit wine is very good, the fruity aroma in it is very strong, with a hint of acidity, and the taste is very soft and delicate. ”

The food on the table Li Wei really couldn't find anything to praise, so he could only start with the fruit wine in the cup.

"Master Levi, your knowledge is really extensive, this bottle of wine is my father's treasure, he has never drunk it, and today I can only drink it with your convenience. ”

Although Mira does not have any strength, her communication skills are exceptional.

She quickly saw that Levi was open-minded and didn't have any lofty stands, so Mira chose to communicate with Levi in a down-to-earth and generous way, and compared to Layton, it was Mira who got closer to Levi faster, at least on the surface.

"This unopened autumn fragrant fruit wine is very expensive, and my father's bottle is worth hundreds of gold coins!"

"Really? I'd really have to drink a little more, or I might not have a chance to taste it next time." ”

Levi smiled and drank the wine in his glass, and Mira poured it for Levi.

"If you like it, Master Mage, I'll give you this bottle of wine, and let the caravans bring a few bottles. ”

Layton saw that Levi was only interested in fruit wine all night, and thought that he must like it.

However, Levi shook his head unexpectedly, "No, I'm not particularly interested in wine, just drink a little once in a while." ”

Layton nodded silently, he really hadn't heard any rumors of a mage being good at drinking.

But because of Levi's refusal, the table fell silent for a while, leaving only the sound of "gurgle", and it was Hill's knife-cut chops across the plate.

At this moment Mira glanced sideways at her father, and the baron suddenly remembered something, and immediately whispered a few words, and the attendant beside him hurried out with small steps.

Levi was a little puzzled, but didn't ask more, and after a while, the butler of the Baronial Castle pushed the door in, and he was followed by several guards, carrying a dozen or so boxes one after another, and the spacious hall was immediately filled.

Then, when all the boxes had been moved, the butler bowed to the crowd and left the hall with all the attendants and guards, and closed the door at the same time.

"Master Mage, these chests contain the wealth inherited by the Joseph family for hundreds of years, and they are all yours now. ”

Layton stood up and opened all the boxes one by one, revealing them in front of Levi, the reflection of various metals instantly brightening the hall.

Levi's behavior surprised Levi, and before he could ask for it, he gave everything away.

Although in the end these belong to him, I have to say that such behavior makes Levi very good.

Unbeknownst to Levi, this was all Mila's idea, and she deliberately revealed her opinion to Layton when she was taking care of Layton.

Layton just didn't think about it for a while, but immediately understood after his daughter's simple prompt, endured the pain, and made up his mind to put all the collections in the basement in front of Levi.

After opening a dozen chests, Layton returned to the table, "There are still some good swords and shields in the basement, but I noticed that your men's weapons are glowing with magic, so I shouldn't look down on those things.

Of course, those are yours if you need them. ”

Levi nodded and stood up, and Ciel and Valila next to him also stood up, unceremoniously looking for the boxes.

The two innermost boxes contained gold coins, which were printed with the emblem of the Takagi Empire and the leaves of the cyan tree that Levi had seen before.

Neither of these two boxes was very full, but there were at least more than twenty or thirty thousand, but Levi was not very interested in this.

Next to the two boxes of gold coins were also some gold jewelry and the like, as well as some exquisite ornaments, literati works and other things sought after by the aristocracy, and Li Wei only glanced at it twice before looking away.

Now none of this kind of thing is of much value to him.
