Who says knights can't backstab

Chapter 328 Romanus
Atzke leaned on his forehead, sat on a small creaky and shaky chair, and looked at Cyril Adrian who was flipping through the school textbooks with a bit of "grievous resentment".

Why, why did I and my student almost make each other cry without saying a word, and the young lord just said something in a "soft voice", and the little girl gave her name so obediently?

Even going to the kitchen to prepare fruit for them now?

Just because you have long ears, isn't it amazing!

The two were talking in a low voice. As for the guard Div, he had already gone back to stand guard.

"Irina Romanus, the three of them moved to Siliki just a few months ago, and their family's situation... is a bit complicated."

"a little complicated?"

"They are three sisters. They don't have parents around. I heard that they escaped from the southern part of the kingdom."

"Is it a refugee from the noble rebellion?"

"perhaps."

Cyril held his chin and tapped his fingers on the table.

He has no impression of the three sisters, and has never heard of them in the game.

But the surname Romanus has been heard before——

Romanus is a well-known family in the southern part of the kingdom.The Romanus family was not aristocratic, but the family members were quite famous, and one of them was the teacher of an important minister of the kingdom a few years later.

In the game, the minister released a related mission to find his teacher, but the final plot seems to be a tragedy... Cyril has never done this mission, and only has a slight impression.

While he was thinking, the girl who looked rather weak had already returned to the small living room with the cut melons and fruits. dare not move.

"Sit down, Irina, the teacher is not here to blame you for not going to class." Azike gave up his seat, pressed the girl's thin shoulders, asked her to sit down, and then asked: "What are you doing?" Where's my sister?"

"Sister...hasn't come back yet." Irina whispered, watching the "Lord" with long ears pick up a piece of fruit and put it in his mouth, with a hint of anticipation visible to the naked eye.

"Mm...very sweet."

The full juice exploded in the mouth, and the sweet taste permeated the mouth all at once. Cyril's eyes lit up: "Is this your sister's plant? It tastes good."

A smile appeared on Irina's face, her hands gripped the hem of the clothes more tightly, and she whispered, "Thank you."

After Azike tasted a piece, he was surprised by the taste of the fruit.

If it's just good taste, it's not enough to explain anything, but before this was the period when the natural elements of the three cities were disordered, and others couldn't even grow crops——

But this eldest sister of the Romanus family can actually grow crops, and they taste so sweet.

This is not something ordinary people can do.

This made Cyril feel a little more anticipation in his heart.

I really didn't have much to say to the reticent and shy Irina. They just chatted as much as possible and sat for more than an hour. Then they heard a rush of footsteps from outside the window.

The sound of footsteps stopped outside the courtyard gate for a short time, followed by the sound of the fence door opening, and then the footsteps became light and slow, followed by the sound of iron tools rubbing against stone slabs...

Cyril and Atsk looked at each other, feeling that something was wrong with the unfolding.The wooden door was quickly opened, and then a figure jumped into the room, holding up a shovel in his hand, and smashed it straight at Azike who was sitting not far from the door, and at the same time there was an impatient and slightly hoarse voice. A female voice sounded:

"Irina, run!"

In this narrow room, the swing of the shovel almost occupied half of the room, and an ordinary farmer would definitely not be able to dodge it.

However, neither Atsk nor Cyril was an ordinary person. Atsk reached out his hand at random and grabbed the shovel.

The face of the woman wielding the shovel immediately turned red, and she tried her best to get the shovel back. Her expression gradually became exaggerated, and her body gradually leaned towards the ground...

Azik said hastily: "Miss Romanus, we are not villains. I am Irina's teacher, and this is the lord."

"what?"

The woman froze for a moment, vented her strength, and fell to the ground with a thud.Irina hurried forward to join her sister, explaining in a low voice the reason for their visit.

Misunderstanding resolved.

After a while, Cyril and the woman sat opposite each other, and Azike led Irina to stand—the space in the house was too small, and there were not many seats for them.

"Cecilia Romanus, my lord, just now... I lost my composure and offended you."

Cyril looked at the woman in front of her. She was probably in her twenties, with black hair and a hairstyle similar to her sister's. She was dressed in ordinary clothes, apparently without much modification.The trouser legs and cuffs are still rolled up, obviously they were still working.

"Cyril Adrian, Earl of Siliki appointed by the kingdom, the new lord." He said.

"The new lord? Let me just say, why isn't it the strong man... Ah sir, I don't mean to slander the baron, I think, this, uh..."

Cecilia's flustered appearance made Atsk and Cyril laugh a little bit, and Atsk also said in time:

"You don't need to be so restrained. Your lord is easy to talk to. His trip is for Siliki's food reserves."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cyril was keenly aware that the flustered expression of the woman in front of her had subsided, her delicate eyebrows were slightly frowned, and she said with some concern:
"Grain reserves? With all due respect, Siliki's agricultural situation is very bad. I can guarantee a certain amount of production in the first two months, but recently the natural yuan... no, I mean, er, the land situation is not right, the production It's getting lower and lower, and it's extremely prone to weeds..."

natural elements.

Cyril caught the word Cecilia wanted to say but concealed it, and couldn't help squinting slightly.

How could an ordinary farmer know words like natural elements?

He waited for Cecilia to finish speaking, then cleared his throat, and replied:

"That's right, Miss Romanus. If you don't have to worry about the land itself, and you are given full responsibility for Siliki's agriculture, will you be able to do it?"

"This... but the problem of the land itself is the biggest problem. Otherwise, even with the farmers of Siliki, they can grow well." Cecilia said euphemistically, "But it seems that the elves are here. In addition to the situation, everyone is saying that the family of the God of Nature is unwilling to share the land with us."

"Nonsense." Atzke shook his head, "You don't have to think too much, just answer the Lord's question."

"Can you do it, or can you not do it?"

　Farm and farm!
