Chapter 84: Lesson (Part 1)
"Master, please don't say that..." The boss said halfway, but he still didn't have the courage to scold Salin.
Rex was a little impatient. She took out a square seal, pointed to the young man's face, and said, "Since your father is a duke, you should know this."
The frivolous expression on the young man's face was frozen, and of course he knew this seal. This was the symbol of the Grucos royal family. No matter how far away Pompei was from the imperial capital, he knew what happened to the imperial capital. There were not many dukes in Qin Yin's fiefdom, and the Duke of Dominic also arranged people to collect intelligence in the Holy Rock City, and had a close relationship with the House of Lords.
"You are... Lord Rex?"
Rex was angry. He didn't want to cause trouble, but when facing this young man, he had to show his identity to solve the problem. Otherwise, the young man would insist on his own and he could not really kill a duke's son.
"It's me, you can leave now." Rex's expression was as rigid as a poor sculpture.
"Your Excellency, please forgive me for your rudeness just now. Since you have come to Pompei, you will meet my father no matter what. Do you think?" The young man suddenly became polite.
Salin also learned something around Rex, and from the words of the young man, he heard a sense of pride. Obviously, the nobles of Pompeii were very clear about the situation in the imperial capital and also knew Rex's current embarrassing situation.
This sentence from the young man can be regarded as the invitation of the Duke of Dominic. If Rex refuses, it is obviously a rejection of the friendship of a duke. For Rex, who is in trouble, it is obviously unwise to do so.
Sure enough, Rex put away his seal and said to the young man wearing a colorful brocade robe: "I only stay for one day, and it is not convenient to meet the Duke."
"Your Excellency, Bergen is his own person, he will not talk nonsense. As for that..." He glanced at Gosica and said relaxedly: "That girl, I will make her own person."
He spoke, his body blocked the stairs and looked at Rex.
Rex has already established a country. Originally, as the direct descendant of the Grucos family, she had no problem walking around Qin Yin, and she didn't even need to say hello to Holy Rock City. However, she also has the status of a prince, so it would be very inappropriate to come to meet Qin Yin, a territorial duke, and it would be very inappropriate to spread it.
Rex sighed in his heart. Many things cannot be solved by magic. If he refuses this invitation, the Duke of Dominic will feel very uncomfortable. If he accepts the invitation, the matter will be passed to Holy Rock City, and the House of Commons will use this to attack him.
Whether this matter will be spread does not depend on the owner of this store. It depends entirely on Dominic's meaning. Pompeii has a seven-story magic tower, so you can't do it randomly.
This feeling of being controlled by others made Rex very uncomfortable. She changed into an extremely formulaic expression and said to the son of Duke Dominic: "Baron, I have to purchase a batch of supplies. I really don't have time. I apologize to Duke Dominic on my behalf."
In Qin Yin, there are strict rules for the inheritance of titles of the nobles. Dominic was still alive for one day and his son could not receive the reward of the title unless he made meritorious service on the battlefield. She called the young man in Jinlang a baron, which was a kind of etiquette and did not mean that the son of the duke had an official title. She was reminding the young man opposite that he was not qualified to invite himself.
"Your Excellency, even if it is an informal invitation, it is very important to Kushui County, isn't it?" A frivolous expression appeared on the young man's face. He seemed to be sure, and Rex would not turn against him.
Rex regretted that he had walked ashore so much. It would be great if he stayed on the boat with peace of mind. If his father was still alive, this young man would probably not have the courage to be so arrogant. Rex felt aggrieved in his heart, and for the first time in his life, he felt a little powerless.
Salin was also very frustrated. He didn't dare to provoke this young man who looked very mentally retarded. The young man's mental retarded was simply disguised.
In a city as big as Pompei, there are swordsmans and magicians, and there are probably also large-scale naval troops. This is like someone is causing trouble in Kushui County. Unless he is a peak professional, the rest cannot escape even if he wants to.
"I won't accept such an invitation." A layer of air suddenly appeared on Rex's body, wrapping her up slowly from the first and a half. She said to Salin: "Let's go."
The young man in the brocade robe did not expect Rex to fly directly and was caught off guard. He was a little annoyed. He had heard that Emperor Chanak's daughter was a character that was not easy to provoke. Today, he thought he had eaten her to death, but he didn't expect that the information was out of date and Rex could fly freely, which means that she was no longer a level 5 magician and must have been promoted to level 6.
If it is a level 6 magician, she may not be her opponent.
The young man in brocade robe was shocked by the level of Rex's exposure and did not dare to stop him anymore. He just shouted behind him: "Your Excellency, do I want to tell my father about what happened today?"
"Hmph!" Rex couldn't suppress his irritability and directly knocked open the store door and rushed out.
Salin hurriedly followed him out. Before he left, he suddenly turned around and said to the young man with brocade robe: "We are going to Alchemy City. If you have the courage, you can follow us. Sword Saint? Hehe..."
Seeing that Rex rejected the invitation from the young man, Salin would not be polite to speak. In Alchemy City, even if you are a formal swordsman, you will not receive any respect. It is the world of magicians. He is reminding the other party that Rex is a great magician and will not be controlled by anyone.
Seeing that Salin and others had gone away, the fat boss then said to the young man with some anxiety: "Young Master, it seems bad to treat a great magician like this. Will the Duke..."
The young man in brocade robe looked fierce and said, "Please take care of your own affairs, I will deal with her affairs. Since I have come, don't think about leaving. Well, your name is Gossica?" He turned his head and asked with a pleasant look.
"Yes." Gosica's heart trembled, she vaguely knew that she might be in a bad situation.
"It's pretty good. Come with me, Bergen, you can arrange it at her family and don't cause any trouble."
"Sir, please..."
The young man in Jinba interrupted Gosica and said, "Don't say much. As long as you are obedient, I will let you go for three or two years at most. I don't want to spread today's affairs."
"Sir, I swear I won't say it." Gosica burst into tears in a hurry. She had parents in her family to take care of her. She left with the Duke's son. No matter how nice he said, she would not be free in the future."
"Only the dead will keep it secret, Gossica, don't be unsatisfied, your family is in Pompei."
Salin chased to the square, and Rex landed on both feet, but his speed did not slow down. Seeing Salin and Neris follow, she whispered: "Let's go back to the dock."
"Let's go now?"
"That person has bad intentions. If he conflicts with me directly, I won't worry. If he doesn't leave, something will happen." Rex regrets showing his identity now. She didn't expect that after Dominic's son knew his identity, he would develop malicious intentions. This time she had a serious sense of crisis, and Pompei's power was not something she could fight against here.
Rex ignored the shocking world and used the wind speed technique all the way, taking Salin and Neris back to the dock. Finding the ship hired by Salin, Rex was surprised to see dozens of soldiers on the ship, surrounding Shika, and both sides were at a strife.
"What's the matter!" Salin walked onto the springboard, afraid that Shika would hurt people.
"Sarin!" Seeing that Salin came back, Shika immediately had a backbone. Forget about these soldiers checking the cargo on the ship, they also had to check her. If Salin didn't come back, she would do it.
"Master Master." Seeing that Salin came with two beautiful women, the soldiers did not dare to neglect and bowed.
"This is my friend. What are the misunderstandings between you?" Salin asked not to let the soldiers speak, so he asked first.
The officer in charge thought about it and said to Salin: "It's not a misunderstanding. She was unable to provide identification just now, so we want to check it."
"I can provide her with a guarantee, you can go." Salin saw that Rex was a little anxious and stopped talking nonsense.
"Of course the mage's words can be trusted, but..." The officer looked a little embarrassed. Salin smiled and took out five gold coins and stuffed them into his hands, saying, "I'll drink this."
The officer took the gold coins calmly, glanced at Shika, and said, "Master, Pompei is very strict, don't let her stay alone." After that, he waved his hand and waited for the soldiers to walk onto the springboard and left Salin's ship.
Salin waved over to a sailor watching from a distance and asked, "Where is the captain?"
"I've entered the city, sir..."
"It's okay, you guys go and do it." Salin sent the sailor away and turned to Rex and said, "This ship cannot leave immediately, what should we do?"
"Prepare the horse, let's go by land." Rex did not hesitate. The more she thought about it, the more something was wrong.
The sailors did not dare to stop Salin and others, so they could only let them take the horses from the boat and watch Rex and the other four boarded the horses away. Less and others left less than an hour ago, a large group of soldiers came to the dock. This time the team was led by senior officers. After carefully asking the sailors, they heard that Rex and others had been away for an hour. The officer was anxious and directed his men to get on the horse and chased after Rex's direction.
Rex urged the horse to move quickly, and Salin felt that she was nervous. Could it be that Lord Pompeii would do it? Even if Emperor Chanak died, Rex was still the royal family of Grucos, and her younger brother was the current emperor. Taking action against Rex was disrespectful to the royal family.
Pompeii, Duke's Mansion.
The Duke of Dominic's face was gloomy. In front of him was the young man in brocade robe who was entangled with Rex.
