The next day, early in the morning, there were slight footsteps outside the door.
A middle-aged maid opened the door gently, holding a broom in her hand, and was about to walk in, when she suddenly spotted a figure inside.
She was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, with an uneasy expression on her face: "Lord Adier! Are you back?"
In the spacious room, a young man was sitting quietly at the wooden table, holding a light blue rag in his hand and wiping a black long sword.
After seeing the maid outside the door, he turned around and looked at her: "Come in."
"Yes!" The maid nodded respectfully, letting go of her anxiety a little, and walked into the room carefully.
"While I was away, you were the one who helped me clean the room, right?" Adil asked.
Hearing this, the maid was a little confused, but she still nodded and said, "Yes."
After a while, Adil continued to ask her a few questions, then stood up and took out a few gold coins from the side and placed them on the table: "These are your rewards for this period of time. After you go out,
Remember to find someone to bring me a breakfast!"
Looking at the few gold coins in front of her, the maid felt happy. She quickly bowed to Adil, quickly took away the gold coins on the table, and then walked out.
After her figure gradually disappeared from Adier's sight, Adier stood up and said to himself thoughtfully: "A total of eight days have passed. It seems that the time flow rate in the two worlds should be about the same.
You should pay more attention in the future.”
He stood silently for a while, until footsteps continued to sound outside the door.
"Adier! My brother!" A bold and familiar voice came from outside the door.
Under Adil's gaze, Elvar, the second son of Count Boria, walked over from a distance.
He was wearing a red shirt, with a long sword on his waist, and he was meticulously organized. With a sincere smile on his face, he walked quickly towards Adier.
Seeing the other party gradually approaching, Adil had to show a kind smile: "Elva, why are you here?"
"I just came back two days ago. As soon as I arrived at the castle, I heard the news that you were promoted to knight."
Elva walked up to Adil, patted him on the shoulder, and looked at him with concern: "Where have you been during this time? No one of you can be found anywhere around the castle."
The moment he put his hand on Adil's shoulder, Adil's body tensed up, and he instinctively wanted to violently throw him away.
He quickly reacted, suppressed the impulse in his heart, and explained calmly: "I went to the forest for a while."
"Some time ago, I entrusted the hunters around here to help me collect some materials, so I went out specially before and have only come back now."
Regarding this explanation, Elva didn't have any doubts. He just smiled and said: "The next time you leave the castle, remember to talk to the castle guard. It is no better than before. The surrounding situation is a bit chaotic. It is too long to stay outside.
It’s somewhat dangerous for a long time.”
Artis nodded, and then asked curiously: "Has the battle situation on the frontline reached this point? Even the surrounding area of the castle is not safe?"
"That's not the case." Elva said with a smile: "Although the battle on the front line is still in a stalemate, according to the news, it is almost over."
"However, although most of the orcs have been suppressed, it seems that there are still some small tribes that went south and sneaked in from the border, wreaking havoc everywhere during this period."
Having said this, he paused, and then said: "The group of orcs you and Knight Fular met last time should be members of these orc tribes going south, and now they have all run into the territory of the nobles in the north.
, which caused us a lot of trouble during this period."
After saying this, he continued to pat Adil on the shoulder: "You should have a good rest here. In two days, there may be an order for you to lead a team to suppress those scattered orcs."
Adil nodded and walked Elva all the way to the door before stopping.
Two days later, as Elvar said, after learning that Adil had returned to the castle, Count Boria issued an order to transfer Adil directly.
In the early morning, Adil rode a white horse and walked quietly to a flat field outside the castle.
There, a group of soldiers had already gathered and were lining up. Among them, Adil saw a familiar figure.
At the front of the team, there was a tall and majestic middle-aged knight, wearing black armor, with a serious expression on his majestic face.
"Lord Fular!"
The moment he saw this middle-aged knight, Adil quickly walked to the front of the team and shouted loudly to the knight.
Hearing the familiar shout, Fular turned around and looked at Adier, with a smile on his face: "Adier, long time no see."
"It's been a long time indeed." Adier said to the other party with a respectful smile on his face.
While speaking, he shouted to the chip in his mind: "Chip, analyze the other party's body data."
In an instant, the chip in his mind responded to him.
Up to now, it has been more than half a month since the last battle, and the sequelae of the opponent's life seed explosion have not completely disappeared. If the explosion of life seeds is not included, the opponent's current combat effectiveness is not even as good as that of a newly promoted knight.
To a certain extent, this also explains the embarrassment of Count Poria. Even a seriously injured knight has to be sent out, which shows that there are really not many men left at his disposal.
Of course, if Fular is like this, Adir is not much better either.
This is the result of Adier's previous explosion of life seeds. Although the data looks better, it is actually more tragic than Fular.
After all, his physical quality is much higher than that of the other party, and being reduced to this situation is enough to illustrate the seriousness of the consequences.
Thinking of this, Adil silently stretched his hand to his waist, took out a black crystal core, and held it tightly in his hand.
The familiar warm current slowly flowed from the crystal core to all parts of the body. While improving his physical fitness, it also accelerated the healing of his physical injuries.
"Soon, soon..."
Silently walking to one side of the team, feeling the changes on his body, Adil whispered to himself.
He had a strong hunch in his heart that when his physical injuries were completely healed, it might be the time when he would be promoted to a Grand Knight.
