When it snows every year, Karl likes to have a drink with a few friends in Helensa City, waiting for the coming of winter with the snowflakes falling outside the window.
There are not many customers in the bar, mainly because this bar does not accept civilian customers, and the price of wine is slightly expensive. Only some young nobles will come here to have a drink. Two dancers are leaning against the bar, talking to the bar.
The half-elf boss inside was playing with dice. The dice spun rapidly in the cup and made a crisp sound. When the dice stopped, people would cheer from time to time.
No matter whether you win or lose, you have to drink. The half-elf owner in the tavern likes to drink a fruit wine with a strong sweetness mixed with tree sap. Karl invited Suldak to have a drink, and it felt like it had a hint of alcohol.
The sugar water is not unpleasant to drink, but it is definitely not delicious. However, this blended sweet wine is the specialty of this tavern.
Of course, the wine-selling girls with both faces and figures are also a specialty here. As long as they are willing to pay for a drink, the wine-selling girls will not mind taking advantage of the wine.
Suldak likes to drink ale, and he also eats a few nuts with salt grains while drinking. He is a little confused about why Karl is so keen to introduce him to female companions.
Just like Miss Brenda who looked down on him a little bit before, Suldak still has a headache when he thinks of her now.
Karl did not talk about what he had gained this week, but only told Suldak in a low voice that in order to collect evidence of Baron Grenfell's crime, Mrs. Christie and Baron Grenfell's wife got very close and went there again this week.
Went to Grenfell Manor, and during the conversation, Baron Grenfell also inquired about Miss Hoyle.
Suldak then remembered the poor noble lady and asked: "So, Hoyle Manor is now completely deserted?"
"Absolutely. Miss Hoyle doesn't want to return to the manor no matter what. There are many terrible past events there that she doesn't want to recall. She has been living in Lord Consul Christie's house recently, but it is hers after all.
The territory, no matter what, is still waiting for her to rebuild. I hope she can get back on her feet after this winter." Karl raised the wine glass in his hand and couldn't help but sigh when he mentioned Miss Hoyle.
For this noble lady who has grown up in a greenhouse, she now needs a capable knight to step forward and save her. Recently, many outstanding young people have visited the Consul Christie's house, hoping to win the favor of Miss Hoyle.
But it is said that Miss Hoyle was very picky and she rejected almost all the young people who pursued her.
"Hey, do you have any idea? As long as you marry this Miss Hoyle, it is equivalent to inheriting a baron title, allowing you to leap from a knight to a noble in one step. This is what almost all knights dream of."
Karl put his arm around Suldak's shoulder, brought his head to his ear and whispered.
Suldak couldn't help but roll his eyes, this guy actually suggested that he should be a soft-boiled man, and he said it so confidently.
Before completely solving the black magic monastery hidden in the city of Helensa, let alone pursuing Miss Hoyle, Suldak did not even want to get close to anything related to Miss Hoyle, so he shook his head repeatedly.
Tell Karl that he has no such intention at all.
Karl expressed to Suldak with some regret: "You know... there are very few knights in the Green Empire who can complete this step. Even if they have outstanding meritorious service, if they want to obtain a noble medal, they don't know what to do."
What an obstacle! Take you for example, after you are canonized as a knight, if you want to be promoted to a baron through normal channels, you need at least a proposal from the Council Hall of Helensa City, and then you can fight for the province of Bena
Only when more than half of the members support you and you vote in the parliament can you officially become a noble."
At this time, Llewellyn, holding a glass of ale, forced his way between Karl and Suldak.
He smiled and asked Karl and Suldak: "What are you two discussing?... Karl, you seem to be very busy recently. Didn't the bandit group disappear? Why are you always leaving the city?"
After chasing Miss Brenda, Baron Llewellyn's eyes became much kinder every time he looked at Suldak. He even felt that Suldak was his defeat and was ruthlessly abandoned by Miss Brenda.
Suldak was a little pitiful, and he didn't mind expressing his goodwill to Suldak from the perspective of a winner.
He clinked wine glasses with Suldak and Karl, with an aristocratic arrogance on his face, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.
The three of them took a sip of ale each, and Karl complained to Baron Llewellyn: "What's the use of hiding! Once the news is over, this gang of robbers will come out again and cause chaos everywhere. They left all kinds of crimes in Helensa
, enough to send them all to the guillotine."
Llewellyn, Jonah and Brooke are Karl's best friends. This time when the bandits made trouble outside the city of Helensa, the three of them really helped Karl a lot. They had always been
He led his knight retinue to search for news about the bandit group in the south of the city.
Seeing that Karl still didn't intend to let go of the bandit group, Llewellyn reminded him sensibly: "You should also be careful. It is said that this group of bandits is famous for their cruel methods. You killed twenty-three of them in one go."
members, be careful they seek revenge on you."
Hearing Llewellyn mention this achievement, Karl felt a little guilty. After all, he had taken the credit from Suldak.
He glanced at Suldak, and saw that Surdak had no reaction, and even looked at him very cooperatively, and even cast an admiring look. Karl then said bravely: "I have been very low-key recently, don't worry.
, I made a lot of preparations.”
Llewellyn did not expect that the person who sent Karl to complete this feat was none other than the Knight of Surdak.
He showed a kind smile, approached Suldak and said: "Suldak, I heard Karl said that you are currently studying at the Knight Academy?"
“Yes, I want to get a graduation certificate from the Knight Academy. This medal is only a reserve knight, and I may lose my knight status at any time.” Surdak said frankly.
Llewellyn said kindly: "You don't need to have such worries. If you are just a civilian, maybe we don't have any good way to help you obtain knighthood for the time being, but since you have become a reserve knight, if anyone wants
Take away this power and we can still help!"
He whispered to Suldak somewhat mysteriously: "And we will be alumni from now on. Let me tell you a secret, I also graduated from Helensa Knight Academy."
…”
What’s there to show off?
Suldak looked at Baron Llewellyn beside him and was speechless for a while.
