Scene 113: Tony Geer and the Young Lord (13) (First update)
When the soldiers saw the young man standing up, they hurriedly came up and pushed him down. They looked at their lord with questioning eyes and asked: "Lord, shall we take this guy down?"
Brando looked at this young man. He knew that this was Sir Mintai's second son, but it was a bit interesting to him that the old gentleman had such an interesting son.
He had changed his mind and shook his head: "Let him go."
Let go? The soldiers were stunned and looked at each other.
"Let go." Brando repeated.
The soldiers then loosened the thick hemp rope tied to Caglis's hands. The young man frowned, bared his teeth and slapped his own wrist - although the soldiers did not beat him violently.
, but I don’t necessarily treat him very politely.
He looked at a few red marks on his white wrist and couldn't help but frown.
But the young man was more concerned about Brando's intentions than this. He raised his head, stared at Brando with his light gray eyes, looked at Brando for a while and asked: "Are you really from here...?"
"You mean, mob boss?"
"Don't dare." The young man smiled awkwardly.
In fact, he was deeply surprised. Only then did Caglis realize that the other person was just a young man about the same age as himself. Not only was he far superior to him in swordsmanship that he was proud of, he was also the leader of such a large group of people.
He looked at Brando, and the more he looked, the more he felt that his life for more than ten years had been in vain. Just like what Pallas said to him sincerely, living in a small place like Tonigel would ultimately limit his own ability.
hands and feet.
"But I'm curious," Caglis asked, stroking his wrist, "Why did you let go of me?"
"If I said I wanted you to work for me, would you believe it?" Brando asked.
"I don't believe it." The young man shook his head: "Why should I work for you?"
"Then if I say that I am the secret envoy sent here by Her Royal Highness Princess Grifiine Korcova Odysseus, and that I came here to establish a secret base to check and balance Count Jean Denel, would you believe it?
"
Now not only Caglis, but also Kuran on the side looked at Brando dumbfounded. The young man seemed to be completely in disbelief. He looked at Brando as if he was looking at a madman, but the old man's eyes seemed a bit...
The feeling of awakening - he thought about the relationship between Tobus and the Corcovado royal family, and then thought about what Brando had done these days, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this young man's words might not be so unreliable.
.
At least part of it wasn't lying.
"This joke is not funny at all," Caglis said with a frown: "But since you are the lord here, I would say it's okay..."
Brando smiled slightly and took out a silver brooch from his arms: "This brooch is called the Silver Shield, and it is the token of the Royal Knights."
The young man was stunned for a moment: "How do I know if you are lying to me?"
Kuran was also a little doubtful. Of course he had heard of the silver coat of arms, but it was unclear whether the one in Brando's hand was genuine. Anyway, the more the old man's doubts deepened, the more he felt that Brando was talking about it.
Maybe that's part of the truth.
Otherwise, was it such a coincidence that this apparently well-trained mob killed Grudin?
Brando put away the brooch. In fact, the brooch was genuine and was sent with a private letter from Her Royal Highness the Princess. The letter was actually very simple. It mainly told him that the royal family admired young people like him. In addition,
Nothing else is mentioned.
This is just a routine reply, and the whole letter is watertight. Even if Brando holds this so-called personal letter from Her Royal Highness Princess Griffin, it is useless.
But the young lord still regarded it as a treasure and carefully kept the letter. Antitina expressed great incomprehension about this and complained about the stinginess of the Corcova royal family. Only a fool like him could not see it.
.
But Brando couldn't see it, but the regent princess was once the dream lover of many of their otakus - although as they grow older, most people eventually realize that this kind of love is just the longing of youth.
, but the most sincere memories in my heart cannot be let go.
Especially when the autographed letter from the deceased Princess was once again placed on his desk, he must be lying if he said he was not excited.
"Okay, let's put this aside." Brando said again: "I heard something about you. I heard that you planned to take a few servants to go north to respond to Her Royal Highness the Princess's plan to revive the Corcovado dynasty.
Call?"
Caglis stopped moving his hands and said, "It seems you know a lot."
"You are better than many people I have met. Tony Geer can't defeat your hands and feet," Brando said while recalling this young man's experience in another period of history in his heart, but it is a pity.
Yes, he got nothing.
This is not surprising. There were many such young people in Eruin back then, but not every one of these names could shine in the end. People with insufficient ability will naturally disappear in the waves, and more people are not lucky enough.
, many people died on the way to Vlada——
Bandits, monsters, cultists and lords with malicious intentions, the countryside of Eruin in this era is not safe.
"When these words come out of your mouth, it sounds like ridicule." The young man said with a frown.
"No," Brando shook his head: "I'm serious. How about it, are you willing?"
"What do you mean?" Caglis was stunned.
"I need an adjutant."
"Are you kidding?" The young man's eyes widened.
Brando shook his head: "I said, I am serious. I think you are qualified enough for this position. The most important thing is that you have the will-"
"Wait a minute," the young man interrupted: "I never promised."
"Then are you willing to stay in Tonigel for the rest of your life, miss this turbulent era, and become nothing more than a rural lord in the end, and eventually become a bad old man?"
"Why do I sound like you are cursing my father in a roundabout way?" The young man asked with a frown. He didn't act like a prisoner at the moment, but like Brando's guest: "But why should I believe it?
you?"
"I'll give you a chance to try."
"But it's not so easy to get off the pirate ship. I understand," the young man said vigilantly: "If you want to convince me, you have to let me see some benefits. If you have nothing to do with it, a white wolf will get on your boat."
Of course, doesn’t it seem like I’m a little too incompetent?”
The young man was actually moved when he said this. He was not a peaceful person by nature. Whether he sought refuge with Her Highness the Princess or followed this young man, he just hoped not to show that his father lived his life in an ordinary way.
.
The boldness in Brando's words made him feel that this young man might be able to realize his dream.
He thought for a moment and asked tentatively: "Who are you and what do you want to do?"
The courtyard fell silent, and there was no sound——
Even Kuran found this question a bit abrupt.
But Brando replied: "I have already said who I am."
"As for what I want to do," the young lord smiled slightly. His smile seemed somewhat meaningful in the rare warm sunshine of the winter afternoon.
"If I said that I wanted to push Grand Duke Anlek's beard to the ground and beat the old guy severely, and then go to Madara's skeleton to settle the debt, would you believe it?"
Caglis was stunned for a long time, and then the young man's eyes glowed with great enthusiasm, and he nodded fiercely: "What a great idea!"
Kuran looked at these two madmen and finally felt that he was indeed old. He was so fearless when he and Tobbs were together. Their regiment was the devil in the November War, calling everyone
The enemies on the battlefield were frightened by the news.
But times have changed after all, and today is no different than before.
Seeing the young man's eagerness to try, the old swordsman quickly dragged Brando aside and lowered his voice and said to him: "Are you crazy, Brando? He is the son of Sir Mintai, you kidnapped him
If you run away, that stubborn old man will fight for you, so you have to think carefully."
"Desperately?" Brando said angrily and funny: "Wait until he gets out of my dungeon first."
"Aren't you going to release him?" Kuran suddenly felt that this young man was a bit too unreasonable. On the one hand, he abducted someone else's son who had worked hard to raise him for more than ten years, and on the other hand, he wanted to lock him in a dungeon.
, no matter how you think about it, this is a bit unkind.
"If you want to let the old knight out, you might as well ask him." Brando pointed to Caglis behind him.
The old swordsman looked back at Caglis and shook his head. Sir Mintai probably wanted to know that his son had boarded the pirate ship, so he probably would not kill him. The young man would not be unaware of this. If Bran
Tell him more often that he should slow down the matter first, and the other party will definitely support it with both hands.
"Today's young people..." He looked at Brando helplessly.
"Okay, don't worry, I will eat well and take good care of that old knight. I am very optimistic about Caglis. He will definitely achieve extraordinary things in the future."
Kuran shook his head: "Brando, is what you said before true?"
"What?"
"Don't be pretentious," the old man said viciously, "I'm talking about the princess."
"Fake."
"Go away!" Kuran kicked him over, but Brando had already dodged on guard. He shook his head with a smile and replied: "Master Kuran, this matter is confidential even if it is true. How could I be like this?"
Say it casually——"
Kuran was stunned for a moment, and then thought that this was possible. However, this young man had done many real and fake things, and he couldn't believe it, so he could only keep his doubts in his heart.
But Brando looked at the old swordsman and interrupted his train of thought: "Old sir, are you interested in traveling?"
"Travel?" Kuran was stunned and looked at the young man strangely, wondering what kind of medicine this guy was selling in his gourd?
