Chapter 37 Hanging Out

The sun is shining and it is a rare good weather in Sylvania. Tracy was reading a book in the study on the second floor in the study, and then he heard the doorbell.

"It's really rare that someone will come at this time. Who is it?" Hearing the ringtone, Trish in the study put down a magic book that had been halfway through reading. Then he ordered the servants to go and open the door. These servants were also recruited from the humans living in Sylvania. Hearing Trish's instructions, he ran over and opened the door immediately without asking Valedo to wait.

After Valed explained his purpose, the servant ran back to the study and explained the situation to Trish.

"It's him here." Trish closed the book, then stood up, stretched. When he arrived at the door, he looked at Valed waiting outside. He couldn't help laughing.

"What are you waiting for? Come in quickly. I don't have to knock on the door here, just come in." Trish said to Valed, then turned around and said to the servants: "This is the eldest son of Valed von Castein, the previous Earl of Castein. You all remember it."

"Yes, Miss Trish." Hearing Trish say this, the servants around him answered.

Afterwards, Vared was led to the living room by Trish. Perhaps because of the cleaning of the servants, Trish's villa seemed very neat. The incident in Valed was looking forward to "finding Teacher Trish's weaknesses through a surprise inspection and using this as a handle" did not happen. This disappointed him a little.

Sitting down on the chair in the living room, waiting for a while, the servants quickly delivered black tea and pastries. After chatting for a while, Vared explained his purpose.

"That's it." Trish thought about it, nodded, and then said, "It's been four years in a blink of an eye... You are eight years old, and time passes so quickly." Of course, Trish, who is now 136, is still a "young man", so there will be no feeling of sadness in spring and autumn.

"That's all, I can meet at school anyway. Please come and go there myself." Trish said this, which could be considered as agreeing to Valed's visit to the college.

"No, this is what I took the initiative to come. After all, in the past four years, teacher, you have taught me a lot of things."

After nearly two years of cultural education, Vared now has more standardized speaking and doing things. It seems that if he is so polite, he would not be able to say it two years ago.

"This is also because you work hard on your own." Trish said: "And I have learned a lot in the process of teaching you." Speaking of this, Trish smiled and shook his head, as if he was thinking of something interesting that had happened in the past few years. There was a look of nostalgia on his face.

The two of them chatted for a while. It was still Tracy who said, Valed. After all, Tracy's hundreds of years of experience was not so easy to finish. Valed waited for her to finish a paragraph, and after fighting with the local bandits under the border prince, he interjected.

"Then, I have notified you about my matter, it's still late. It's time for me to say goodbye. He said this, then stood up and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute, it's already time. Stay here and have lunch together." Trish also stood up and tried to keep him.

"Then keep disturbing me." Vared turned around as he said this, showing a smile with a slight conspiracy. In fact, Vared was the second visit to Trish's residence, which was because he had this intention. He calculated the time before he left. He knew that he had arrived at Trish's house and chatted for a while, it would probably be time to eat. Although he knew that Trish would not cook in person, it would be good to have a meal.

Vared and Trisey went to the restaurant for entertaining guests together. Maya, who came with him, was also led by the servants to the place where they had dinner. Before leaving, Maya finally turned around and looked at her master. She found that he was having a happy conversation with Trisey. This made Maya feel a little strange - she had never seen her master show such a happy expression when talking to others.

"It seems that the young master likes this teacher very much. Even in front of the eldest lady and the wife, he doesn't seem so happy." Maya felt a little uncomfortable. But it was just a moment. Others didn't feel it at all, and she herself thought it was an illusion.

After lunch, Trish originally wanted to stay Vared and have afternoon tea together. But Vared felt that the day had just passed, which seemed too boring. After all, there were quite a few times when I had tea with Trish. It was rare to leave once and do some things like usual, which would be too boring.

"Is that so? Be careful on the way home, I'll take you out." Trisey felt a little regretful when he heard Valed reject her invitation. Then he stood up and took Valed's hand out. He watched him get on the carriage and waved goodbye to himself. Then he went back to the study to continue reading.

After leaving the academy, the ghost coachman in front of the carriage asked silently, asking where Vared was going now. Vared thought for a while and decided to go to the city to take a look. So the driver blew the whip and the ghost coach advanced quickly silently. Vared also took this opportunity to take a short nap.

After a while, the sound outside the carriage gradually became noisy. Vared opened his eyes and opened the curtains of the car windows and saw that there were many human activities outside. They had entered the city. They were now walking on a commercial street where they were doing well in business.

This is the only city in Earl Castein. It is about twenty kilometers away from the Dekenhof Castle. The name is also Dekenhof. It is also the economic center of the Count. Hundreds of thousands of people in the entire territory will come here if they want to buy and sell something. Every weekend, there will be a temporary market. Just like today, many people in the territory push wheelbarrows and drive carriages to the city to do some small business to subsidize their household income. This makes the city very lively.

Today is a rare and good weather. It seems to be happy with the people in the city. People who have lived under the rule of vampires in Sylvania have long been accustomed to everything in this country. For ordinary people, it doesn't matter who rule them. Filling their stomachs is the most important thing. Therefore, for Vared, the carriage that obviously exudes the aura of the undead, is not afraid. They still do whatever they should do.

Vared glanced at the streets on both sides and said that the best deals were shops selling food and daily necessities. Bakeries and vendors selling vegetables were all booming. The shops selling salt were even more arrogant and thought they were superior. The shops selling daily necessities were also good. Cloth, cotton, seasonings, firewood and wine. These things were purchased by people.

The business of other luxury shops is worse. The wealthy vampires come fewer. In Silvania, there are even fewer rich humans. The several spice shops, high-end cloth shops, and shops selling fine pastries and high-end liquors that Vared passes are almost deserted.

"The economy is barely enough, but it still needs to be improved." Vared looked for a while and came to this conclusion. Then he put down his hand and lowered the curtains.

He once heard Trish say that the scene of Marianburg, one of the most prosperous trade cities in the Old World, from the northernmost Noska to the southernmost Arabian, and even the kingdom of Usulan, the high elf hanging overseas. That city gathers all the goods of the whole world. The city even has its own powerful army and fleet. Although it is nominally affiliated with the Sigma Empire, it has absolute autonomy. For merchants and rich people, it is like heaven.

"When will this city flourish as much as Marianburg?" Vared sighed. Then he laughed. Sylvania lacked national strength and was not an important transportation hub. It was even blocked by trade between the Sigma Empire and the Dwarf Kingdom. How could such a country have such a prosperous trade city? I was too whimsical.

In addition, despite the extraordinary prosperity of that city, the prosperity belonged to the great merchants of that city and the nobles of that city. It was of no use to its motherland, the Sigma Empire, and even suppressed the development of coastal cities along the Sigma Empire to a certain extent. Such a prosperity that was useless to oneself was not what Valed wanted.
