Sword Sorcery

Chapter 53
(A chapter of 3000 words, please recommend tickets~!)
(PS: Some people have suggested why not directly scan the strength of those soldiers without chips. This involves the difference between 'data scanning' and 'detection scanning'. Besides, there are some things that cannot be scanned by current chips, such as the mysterious power of wizards, or even Can interfere with the operation of the chip.)
(I will mention these in detail later-to put it simply, the condition of 'data scanning' means 'distance' is very harsh, just like Aron's 'stealing' books and scanning Viscount Steve's At that time, I deliberately depicted them at a fairly close distance. Anyway, "data scanning" is not as convenient as "detection scanning". Another: the above words are not included in the 3000 words, so feel free to eat this chapter. )
"Master Eric, are the other five loyal and heroic soldiers also powerful and respectable 'knights' just like your lord?"

When Eric heard Aaron's question, he immediately retorted and reprimanded: "Although they are just ordinary soldiers—ordinary soldiers who have not even reached the quasi-knight level. However, their loyalty to His Royal Highness Ronald has gone through this journey. They are all warriors who are absolutely loyal to the Kino royal family!"

"So they deserve a reward that matches their loyalty. Even if you feel difficult and crowded, you must give me an empty carriage for them to ride—this is a reward for their loyalty!"

"Butler Aaron, you must empty the compartment for me no matter what, do you understand?"

Hearing Eric's words, Aaron drew a strange and imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but bury his head even deeper, so as to cover up the 'weird' expression on his face that was completely inconsistent with the words in his mouth——

"Yes~! Master Eric, I will definitely handle this matter to your 'satisfaction'!"

Obviously, Eric did not hear the well-concealed 'joy' in Aaron's words at all. Seeing Aaron's 'humble' and respectful appearance, he couldn't help nodding slightly, and the expression on his face was slightly soft A little bit more:
"Looking at your young age, it is not easy to become a quasi-knight. You must know that when I was your age, I was only the pinnacle of the quasi-knight level, and I just touched the threshold of a full-fledged knight!"

"Since you can reach [-]% of my level back then, it's still considered a good talent. I think you may break through to a formal knight in the future. Work hard and don't waste this talent."

These words caused the corners of Viscount Steve's mouth to twitch, and his face became a little weird. He had to lower his head in the same way, and hid the expression on his face well.

As for the other people behind them, they seemed to suddenly understand something. The soldiers quickly lowered their heads, not daring to let Eric see their expressions, while the servants quietly covered their mouths with their hands. , bowed his head and twitched his shoulders from time to time, as if he was enduring something.

At this time, only the pure-hearted Angeli hadn't reacted yet, she looked at Aaron's back with a puzzled face, and couldn't figure out why this 'demon'-like bad guy would lie to deceive that Eric—— Obviously he is an official knight, but he still wants to call himself a quasi-knight level existence, and incidentally changed his identity to 'Aaron Butler'!
Is he still going to grab Jerry's 'job'?

At the same time, the expression of the real butler, Jerry Butler, was even more exciting. He already had vague guesses about Aaron's next move, and there was a turmoil in his heart, but he didn't dare to show any strangeness. Like everyone else, he lowered his head tightly and muttered secretly:
"Lord Aaron's palace and scheming are so deep and terrifying. However, the most frightening thing is not this, but"

Jerry raised his head slightly, stared at Aaron's back with hidden fear, and sighed in his heart:
"That chilling decisiveness and determination!"

Obviously, most of the soldiers and servants under the Viscount's command understood the meaning of Aaron's actions, and all of them lowered their heads and did not dare to show any abnormalities, lest Eric would find out some clues.

Eric naturally didn't notice the subtle changes of the servants, because in his heart, these pariahs didn't even have the qualifications for him to take a look, let alone pay attention to their detailed changes.

At the same time, when Aaron heard Eric's evaluation of his own strength as "not bad", and boasted about his own knight talent, he sneered secretly, but his face showed a look of fear expression--

"Master Eric was able to become an official knight at such a young age. I think you are also a well-known genius in the capital. Young people like us who come from small and remote places naturally have no way to compete with Sir Eric. Compared."

Eric was flattered by Aaron, his whole person was ecstatic, and the expression on his face became three points of frivolity, and he immediately forgot the 'disrespect' that Aaron had interrupted before. , even Aaron's appearance in his eyes became much more pleasing to the eye.

Seeing this, Aaron knew that Eric had relaxed his vigilance towards him. An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he lowered his head again, pretending to be a silent wooden man, quietly waiting for things to go as he expected. develop--

"Okay, stop talking nonsense~!"

Prince Ronald was a little impatient, interrupted the conversation between Eric and Aaron, turned his head directly to Viscount Steve and said: "Steve, I ask you to escort me to Cocoa of the Finnish Empire next." Port of Voss, all other requirements should be done according to what Eric said, do you have any opinions on this?"

"Your Majesty obeys His Majesty's orders."

Viscount Steve lowered his head to respond to Prince Ronald's inquiry, but his eyes looked straight at the ground under his feet, and his eyes seemed a little flickering
Prince Ronald was naturally ignorant of this, and after hearing Viscount Steve's reply, he nodded with satisfaction: "Okay! Steve, you made a pretty correct choice, don't worry, I also I will not treat my loyal ministers badly!"

When he said these words, Prince Ronald seemed full of confidence, because he had that "token" in his hand-enough to make him a powerful existence in the future, and possess the capital to restore the country!

Even though the current situation in the Chino Kingdom is very critical, this is the reason why Prince Ronald did not show too much worry.

Seeing that 'the overall situation is settled', Prince Ronald immediately let go of his guard and told Steve, "Okay, hurry up and organize your things, and try to get on the road as soon as possible, don't waste any more time."

"By the way, send me a few maids. Wait a minute, I'll pick them out myself."

Ronald glanced at him, pointed at one of Viscount Steve's concubines—Ms. Leisi, and said casually: "Well, she's not bad, let's send her to my carriage first."

He completely disregarded Viscount Steve's opinion in his words, as if it was a matter of course.

Next, Ronald continued to scan his eyes casually. Suddenly, his eyes were fixed, and he hurriedly raised his finger to point at Angoli who was not far away, and shouted eagerly: "Steve, why don't you take her as well?" Forget it, I don't want anyone else, I just want her!"

After finishing speaking, Ronald looked at Steve unquestionably, as if swearing that he was determined to win An Geli.

An Geli's complexion changed immediately, and she couldn't help exclaiming: "I don't want~! I don't want to go into his compartment!"

At the same time, An Geli's gaze drifted to Aaron involuntarily.

Ronald, who had been paying attention to An Geli, of course also noticed this, and suddenly looked at Aaron with some doubts, guessing their relationship in his heart—could it be that they have a crush on each other?Well, it seems that there may be some good feelings for each other, hmph, but what's the use of this?Can a housekeeper compare to me as a prince?

Thinking of this, Ronald said directly: "She seems to be the daughter of Viscount Steve, right? Well, I still need a wife in the future, Steve, you can marry the direct relatives of the Chino royal family Relationship, this is a great honor for you—”

"Do you have any comments on this?"

Ronald was not only asking Steve, but also Aaron cryptically.

Steve lowered his head to express silence, while Aaron, who had been lowering his head, responded calmly:
"This is the honor of the minister."

Not far away, after hearing these words, An Geli's pretty face immediately turned pale without blood, and she looked at Aaron in disbelief, her lips murmured and she couldn't speak.

Ronald laughed out loud when he saw this scene, and thought to himself: "Huh~, let me just say, how can a butler compare with me? This is the gap brought about by power and status—— As a prince, even Viscount Steve must bow his head, let alone a mere housekeeper?"

"No matter how unwilling and reluctant Aaron is in his heart, he can only bow his head to me obediently, and confided, 'This is the honor of the minister'. This is the gap brought about by royal power, hahahaha."

"However, it seems that there is indeed some affection between them. Let's find a chance to get rid of that Aaron in the future."

Ronald, who was so facing, couldn't wait to walk towards Angoli, and Eric beside him saw Viscount Steve and "Aaron Butler" keeping their heads down and silent, and couldn't help showing a smile—this is The power of kingship!
When the difference in status between the two parties reaches a certain level, everyone must bow their heads to the other party and submit to the other party's feet!

As the head of Prince Ronald's guard, Eric knew this kind of royal power most clearly.Especially when he saw Aaron and Viscount Steve 'surrender' without any suspense, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart. Coupled with Aaron's previous weakness, Eric Finally, at this moment, he completely relaxed his vigilance.

At the same time, Prince Ronald walked towards An Geli excitedly, seeing her pale face kept retreating, keeping a distance from him, a feeling of "cat and mouse" suddenly rose in his heart A sense of playfulness.

However, just as Ronald passed by Aaron's side.
The sudden change! ! !

I saw Aaron's right hand placed on the right side of his body suddenly swayed, and instantly grasped the cross sword tied around his waist, and suddenly pulled it out forcefully, exploding a dazzling light——

Swish! ! !
A silver glow was like an arrow that flew off the string, flashing across Ronald's right side in an instant, directly bringing up an arm and spurting a spring of blood that soared into the sky!
At the same time, an extremely calm voice came from Aaron's mouth very clearly——

"It's an honor to be able to cut off His Highness's arm!"

The next moment, countless silver lights bypassed Ronald's position, and bombarded Eric who hadn't reacted behind him!
