They all call me master.

Chapter 816 Beth's Morning Ⅳ

The huge roast was brought to the table along with the bones, and on the side were coarse bread, sweet soup, and a large bowl of lettuce. The seasoning included butter, honey, cream, coarse salt, and black pepper.

This meal is hearty enough for ordinary people.

However, for a great noble, it was not enough.

Anyone who is invited will feel slighted.

At least, at the very least, there should be a roasted deer.

The best thing is that the horns of the roasted deer are filled with all kinds of roasted fruits.

However, those who are familiar with Marquis Einhas do not think so.

Even flattered.

Because this marquis used the tradition of the Einhas family - a tradition unique to witchers.

Simple and direct.

Or……

Eat a lot and be full.

As a guest, Arthur was very glad that Marquis Einhas retained the tradition of the witcher. At least the Marquis did not torture him with grand balls and lengthy salons.

That's right!

For Arthur, such scenes of others socializing and relaxing were torture.

Because Arthur needs to keep his eyes and ears open.

Not only do you need to secretly record everyone's expressions, but you also need to review them repeatedly to infer things that may or may not be about him.

exhausted?

of course.

However, no matter how exhausted you are, it's better than dying without knowing why, right?

Just like this moment——

Marquis Einhas signaled his valet and cook to leave together.

Arthur's heart sank.

He knew that the Marquis must be talking about something important.

Or asking him something.

Whether it was a conversation or an inquiry, it made Arthur concentrate.

Arthur doesn't think that he can rest easy just because the two parties have signed a contract.

If one thing goes wrong and something is revealed, it will lead to big trouble.

At least, the Marquis in front of him will never give up.

The character of this Marquis is as sharp as his opponent's swords, and...

Easy to understand!

Although he increased his concentration in his heart, Arthur appeared to be nonchalant. He tore off a piece of barbecue, dipped it in coarse salt, and put it into his mouth, chewing it.

As for the sweet soup in front of him, he drank it like a cow.

In just one mouthful, the bowl of sweet soup in front of him was empty.

Looking at Arthur's appearance, Marquis Einhas did not feel offended at all.

On the contrary, the Marquis admired Arthur's style.

Therefore, the Marquis swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth, and waited until Arthur finished the third piece of barbecue and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face before he spoke.

And the straightforward questioning also became gentle at this time——

"Arthur, what do you think about that?"

that matter?
What matter?

I don’t know, how can I see?
Of course I can't bear to watch it!
Facing such nonsensical questions is enough to give anyone a headache.

Arthur is no exception.

In fact, Arthur hated this kind of riddle man very much.

However, there is no shortage of such riddlers around Arthur.

Therefore, Arthur had long been accustomed to it.

Even though he was extremely resentful in his heart at this moment, on the surface, Arthur frowned slightly.

Habit is inevitable.

Only the right medicine can bring results.

Under the watchful eyes of Marquis Einhas, the young Nanlos medium took out the first three ingredients of the 'Salt, Brick and Oil Sword': [Exorcism Holy Salt], [Evil-Repelling Brick Powder], and [Boundary Oil].

Surprise immediately appeared in Marquis Einhas's eyes.

The Marquis obviously did not expect that Arthur would have [Exorcism Holy Salt], [Evil-Repelling Brick Powder], and [Block Oil].

Moreover, the technique used was so skillful.

If [Exorcism Holy Salt] and [Evil-Repelling Brick Powder] are excusable, these two things are not rare.

But [Boundary Oil] is the core inheritance of the demon hunter. 'Is there a demon hunter in Arthur's family?'

Subconsciously, Marquis Einhas asked the old count.

'have no idea!

After that incident that year, the Demon Hunters had already fallen apart.

It is not uncommon for Arthur's family to have a witcher heritage.

However, Arthur is so careful, it seems that he really knows some of the things that happened back then.'

The old count replied.

In response, Marquis Einhas nodded slightly.

Arthur saw this scene out of the corner of his eye.

It wasn't an accidental sighting.

It is seen under real attention.

In response to Marquis Einhas's question, why did Arthur take out the [Exorcism Holy Salt], [Evil-Repelling Brick Powder], and [Block Oil]?
Isn't it just to attract the attention of Marquis Einhas, the 'Demon Hunter Successor', and Count Bernaken, the 'Demon Hunter Master'?
Then, infer more from Marquis Einhas's reaction.

'This kind of affirmation shows that 'that matter' is still under scrutiny and cannot be discussed casually, otherwise it will be heard - and with Marquis Einhas's current strength, he is still so sure, which shows that this matter is related to...

God?! '

Arthur felt his temples swelling.

For a small figure like him who had just entered the realm of God, it was already a huge step forward for him to come into contact with a demigod.

Now 'demigods' are not enough, we have to start contacting 'gods'.

If this goes wrong, I'm afraid it will be the end of us.

Arthur complained in his heart, but on the surface he was seriously using the [Boundary Oil] to circle himself and Marquis Einhas.

Then, a spark flashed across the fingertips.

[Boundary Oil] was ignited.

In the unique glow of the fire, Arthur sat back in his chair.

The young Nanlos medium rested his left hand on the armrest of the chair, supported his right elbow on the armrest, and supported his chin with his right palm. The fingers of his right hand slid gently on his upper lip with his breathing.

"What price are you willing to pay?"

Arthur asked rhetorically.

This question made Marquis Einhas stunned.

"You haven't forgotten what I said, have you?

Fair trade!

This is the psychic code.

That’s my motto too.”

Facing the stunned Marquis Einhas, Arthur said as a matter of course.

"I thought we were friends!"

Marquis Einhas emphasized.

“It is precisely because we are friends that I am willing to answer your question - if we were not friends, believe me, you would not have the opportunity to ask this question.

After all, it involves too much.

Related to this is...

This makes its value inestimable! "

Sometimes it is better to leave a lingering impression than to speak clearly.

The vague words made Marquis Einhas start to think seriously about what he should use in exchange for an answer.

This made Marquis Einhas very distressed.

Because he gave all his property to the psychic in front of him!

And this is exactly what Arthur wants!
When faced with a question that cannot be answered, one of the common solutions is to raise the price.

Raise it to the point where the other party is discouraged!
What if the other party still refuses to change his mind?
Arthur didn't mind a little wielding of the knife either.

When facing a person who has already given him all his wealth, Arthur will wait for the other person to fall into his trap.

Arthur is a soft-hearted man who would never hurt anyone.

It's just that Arthur is missing someone.

He needs a high-end combat force.

As it happens, Marquis Einhas is a good fit.

"This is fate."

Arthur sighed, and his eyes became more and more complicated as he looked at the Marquis.

But this complexity made Marquis Einhas frown.
