I'm an Aristocrat, but I've Started a Farming System

Chapter 82: Assassin

Linn turned to look at Matthew. There was no expression on his face, and his eyes could not be seen as he looked into the distance.

It seems that when you came to the town, you didn't just want to drink. You also have a certain concern and understanding of the changes in the town. Lin En said quite unexpectedly.

From the time Matthew was brought here by Jack and Miles, his appearance and appearance showed one thing - decadence, self-destruction, and no idea of ​​change.

Lin En has been ignoring him these days. He lives and eats with his servants. Lin En thought that Matthew had completely abandoned his dignity. But now that he has spoken, he has changed this view.

Matthew's words were calm, I just chose to escape. It doesn't mean that I won't observe the surrounding situation. In my opinion, the things you did, although they changed the town, were of no use at all.

Oh, why do you say that? Lin En became interested. The other party was not a simple person. If he got something from him that he, a manager, could not see, it would be an unexpected gain.

Matthew said no more.

Linn stared at him and suddenly laughed, Biton, bring the beer.

The valet Beaton immediately brought beer and poured them two glasses.

Matthew drank the beer in one breath and then said: You should know my origin, but what you don't know is how many towns I have moved to over the years, ranging from a small village to a town with a few hundred people to a large town with thousands of people. A small town, a kingdom of tens of thousands of people, I have met countless people.

I have seen serfs, commoners, merchants, nobles, royals, knights, mages, even dwarves and elves.

Linn was surprised, Dwarves and elves?

It's normal for you to be surprised. These two races rarely enter the realm of human life, especially since your location is too remote. It's not surprising that you haven't seen them before. Matthew said while pouring himself a glass of beer. , drinking gurglingly.

Linn nodded, Indeed, Ash Town is already at the edge of the Earl's territory.

No! Matthew shook his head, The kingdom you belong to is just too remote. The Kingdom of Kais is just an ordinary small country. It is adjacent to several kingdoms such as Grant Kingdom and Otto Kingdom. The earl you mentioned, in the eyes of those big kingdoms, Here, he may not even be as good as a viscount.

Lynn: ???

Don't think it's an exaggeration. This is the fact. In the eyes of these serfs, you are a noble lord, but in the eyes of others, you are nothing at all. Do you suddenly have the idea that your status is inferior to others?

Lin En's face calmed down. He didn't think there was anything wrong with this. No matter which world it was, it was the same. If there were ordinary people, there would naturally be masters.

The class gap between nobles and serfs is solid evidence.

Matthew finished another glass, refilled it for himself, and after drinking half of it, he said: In these places I have been, the lords of some towns have the same idea as you and want to change some things, just like what you did. Let the serfs participate in the training and teach them how to read and write. However, they trained civilians. There were no exceptions. They all failed. The noble lords fled or died, and even their territories were occupied. And you are on your way to follow them. Same path.

Linn suddenly laughed.

Matthew couldn't help but turn his head and look at him, wondering why he was smiling.

It turned out that he was not the only one who wanted to change, but there were more people who had this idea. Lin En suddenly felt a sense of joy that he was not alone in his path.

Of course, this is also an exaggeration. What Linn is more concerned about is that these people all have the idea of ​​​​changing, just like there are people with lofty ideals in dark places.

Do you know why they failed? Matthew asked.

I know! Lin En answered affirmatively, I don't have the strength to change, but I force change instead.

Matthew was a little surprised, Then if you still do it, aren't you afraid that you will eventually be killed?

Afraid, of course, who is not afraid of death? As a noble lord, although I am not as rich as other nobles, I still have enough food and clothing. But fear does not mean that you cannot change. On the contrary, fear can make you cautious.

Linn took a sip of beer and said, When I first came to Ash Town, I only had a butler and a few servants around me. Not to mention knights, there were not even knights' retinue. In fact, I don't know what my father is holding. What an idea.

When I came to the town, I also found out that there was a difficult mayor here. He turned out to be a knight and had his own secret. Regarding this situation, I couldn't lose my temper like other nobles. I had to keep it in check. He quickly became a knight, but in the end he got rid of the opponent.

Staying still? Matthew didn't know much about this word.

Oh, it means growing carefully, not being noticed, and waiting until the critical moment to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy. Lin En explained.

Matthew said: Isn't this an assassination? Are you not only a knight, but also an assassin?

He had a strange expression on his face and took a step back slightly.

Lynn: .

Forget it, he didn't mean to explain more, just misunderstand it.

Lin En continued the topic just now, I am a knight with my own strength. My father is an earl. If someone dares to attack, you need to ask him first. Finally, Ash Town is very remote and in a In the Sunset Forest, few people were willing to come. These factors gave me the premise for change.

However, I understand what you mean. Facing those powerful noble lords, I don’t have the strength to compete, right? The food has to be eaten one bite at a time, and the road has to be walked step by step. Maybe I will become a senior knight by then, and maybe you can recover. Woolen cloth.

Linn looked at Matthew, You said something before. You escape, but you also observe the surrounding situation. This means that you want to live. Maybe abandoning dignity is just a way for you to protect yourself.

Matthew's body was shaken, but he didn't say anything.

You haven't given up on life, then live well, maybe things will change in the future. Lin En thought for a while, By the way, I have a snake gall from the Wild Hunt snake here. It is said that it has the effect of improving eyesight.

Matthew said, When I was first cursed, my strength was still weak. I hunted many monsters to make potions, including the Snake of the Wild Hunt. I once ate more than twenty snake gallbladders, but they were of no use. .”

Lynn: Okay, I'm curious, how did you get the curse, and are you really sure you got the curse?

Matthew didn't speak, just drank the rest of the beer, and then groped back to his house again.

Linn looked at him, then at the empty beer barrel, and murmured, I don't know if you suddenly said so much, because you were touched, or if you just wanted to cheat.

Master, I brought what you asked for. Karis's voice sounded from outside.
