Mythical Card Master: Start with the Knight

"Irina, what are you doing?"

Chu Ming returned to the courtyard and shouted inside.

"Here we come, Master."

"Irina is cleaning the room with sister Milisa."

Irina's voice sounded from the corridor of the wooden house, and she pulled Milisa out of it.

Chu Ming waved hello to the woman, and then looked at the tiny Irina.

"I plan to go back to visit Nulia's mother today. Do you want to go with me?"

When Irina heard this, her eyes shone like shining stars. She grabbed Chu Ming's hand and nodded vigorously, fearing that Chu Ming would not take her there.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Mama Nulia and Mama Valerie. I miss them so much."

Chu Ming smiled and said: "Then you go pack your things quickly, we will set off later."

"Okay."

Irina excitedly stepped on the wooden floor and walked upstairs with a thumping sound.

After the girl left, Chu Ming looked at Milisa and said, "Sorry, Irina and I have something to do today and can't take care of you. If you have any needs, you can ask the maid here or go to the training hall to find Miguel. , go to the guild hall to find Amy, they should be able to help you."

Milisa shook her head and smiled: "Brother Ren, don't worry. I have adapted to the life of the guild in the past few days. I can solve it by myself."

Chu Ming nodded without saying anything. After Irina came down with a cloth bag, he said goodbye to Milisa and walked out of the courtyard.

The two of them were walking in the back hall. Chu Ming looked at the package in Irina's arms. He finally discovered that Irina is like a hamster. She likes to collect things and can accumulate them every once in a while. Come up with a lot of weird stuff.

Fortunately, the girl is also good at sharing. Both the guild staff and the knights have received gifts from her, otherwise Chu Ming would have suspected that her room would be full of stuff.

The two walked out of the back hall, and Chu Ming looked at a maid who was bringing tea to the knight.

When the maid saw Chu Ming approaching, she quickly bent down and saluted, "Master Ren, do you have anything to tell me?"

Chu Ming nodded, "Help me prepare the carriage, I want to go back to Tulip Street."

"Okay, Master."

The maid saluted again, holding the tray in her hands and hurried towards the stable.

"Hello, Master Ren."

Chu Ming walked through the bustling hall, and many knights bent down to salute after seeing him appear.

"Good morning everyone."

Chu Ming put his right hand on his chest, bowed slightly to everyone, and walked out of the guild hall on a path separated by the crowd.

Chu and Ming waited in the yard for a minute. The sound of horse hooves sounded from behind the yard, and an old servant appeared in the yard driving a carriage inlaid with gold patterns and the Yunlei clan emblem.

The old man said respectfully: "Master, please get in the car."

"sorry to bother you."

Chu Ming pulled Irina onto the carriage, gradually left the guild and drove towards Tulip Street.

In fact, Vasco Street and Tulip Street are less than ten streets apart, and it is not too far to walk there. In fact, Chu Ming has always walked there before, but now that there are many royal spies in the city of Sauron, he does not want to walk. People are looking at me pryingly on the street, so it is better to hide myself.

The carriage reached a market halfway and entered a market. After Chu Ming bought a basket of fresh fruits from a stall, the carriage drove at a steady speed for a few minutes and soon entered the tulip street.

Chu Ming has never been back to Tulip Street since he went to Reran Kingdom. Looking at the familiar streets around him, he couldn't help but feel relaxed.

"Xu."

The old man's voice sounded from the front, and the carriage stopped in front of the yard.

However, Chu Ming and the others did not seem to be the first guests to visit today. A low-key black carriage had already parked in the yard.

"Is anyone visiting Mama Nulia?"

Chu Ming's face became a little strange. Normally, this courtyard was very quiet, and there wasn't even one guest in a year. Why was it such a coincidence today.

Just when he was still confused, the head maid Valerie hurriedly walked out of the room.

The woman stood in front of the door, bent down in front of the carriage and apologized: "I'm sorry, this guest, Miss Nuria is entertaining guests from the family. Please come back tomorrow. I'm very sorry."

Chu Ming was stunned. It was impossible for Valerie not to recognize his carriage, unless she was hinting him to leave the yard.

"The guest from the family...could this person be Pedro?!"

Pedro Bernudez, like Nulia, comes from the Bernudez family, one of the three major families in the Clinton Kingdom. However, after marrying the royal princess, he can also be regarded as a member of the royal family. This time, one of the three legends sent by the royal family to the city of Sauron.

Chu Ming cried out in his heart that he was unlucky. He originally thought that the royal family's attention should be on the devil's nest that appeared in Cress County, but he did not expect to run into Pedro who came to visit Nuria.

His heart tightened, and he was about to follow Valerie's wishes and tell the old servant to drive the carriage away.

At this time, a calm voice came from the door of the house.

"The visitor is a guest, how can you reject the guest because of me?"

Chu Ming looked through the glass of the carriage in the direction of the sound, and saw a middle-aged man with gray hair and wearing aristocratic clothing, his hands crossed, and he looked into his eyes quietly.

The man moved the corners of his stiff mouth and smiled, "Knight Ren, it's an honor to meet you."

Chu Ming narrowed his eyes slightly. Since Pedro directly named him, he had no reason to avoid it. In this case, it would be better to simply get off the carriage and meet the man. Anyway, the worst outcome would be He just joined the reserve army and was temporarily summoned by the royal family.

He pulled Irina out of the carriage, bent down and saluted the man: "Good morning, Senior Pedro."

Chu Ming did not address the man as sir. He tried to use his half of the Bernudes bloodline to bring the identity of the younger generation, rather than representing the knights of the Brick family.

Although there seems to be no difference between the two, if Pedro still has feelings for the Bernudez family, even if he knows what Chu Ming is thinking, he will not hate his rhetoric. On the contrary, maybe the man will still He will be treated as a junior.

Of course, if Pedro had no feelings for the Bernudez family, he would only find Chu Ming's actions ridiculous.

However, the situation Chu Ming was facing now was already very bad, and he didn't mind if it got even worse.

After Pedro listened to Chu Ming's words, the stiff smile on his face became much more natural, "Come in quickly, don't make your mother wait anxiously."

Chu Ming secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Pedro's attitude showed that they still needed to discuss it. At least the man probably didn't come specifically to arrest him and join the reserve army. His situation was not very bad.

He smiled and said, "I'll be here right away. Senior, please go in first. I'll pack up my things and come back."

The man nodded, looked at Chu Ming, said nothing, and followed the maid back to the house.

After Pedro completely disappeared from everyone's sight, Valerie walked up to Chu Ming with a bit of worry, "Master, Mr. Pedro is the young lady's uncle. He..."

Chu Ming stretched out his hand to stop the woman's words. He comforted: "Mom Valerie, please don't worry. Senior Pedro is a friendly person. We are just chatting."

In fact, Chu Ming didn't know what kind of character Pedro was, but the distance between him and Pedro was less than a hundred meters. Who knows if the man could hear him in the room. Even if he was a cold-blooded person, Chu Ming couldn't. He must be praised as a great good man.

"Please keep an eye on Irina for me, and I'll go in and have a chat with Senior Pedro."

Chu Ming pulled Irina to Valerie's side.

Although Irina didn't know what happened or who the so-called Pedro was, she always felt that it was not a good thing. The girl lowered her head and stubbornly pulled Chu Ming's sleeve with her right hand without letting go.

Chu Ming rubbed her head and looked at Irina quietly.

Irina shook her head and said: "Master, Irina will go wherever you go."

Chu Ming had no choice but to say, "Then you can come in with me, but I didn't ask you to speak, so don't say anything."

The girl nodded vigorously, followed Chu Ming step by step, and followed him into the house.

In the courtyard corridor of the house, Nulia and Pedro sat at the white wooden table and chatted happily. White steam rose from the black tea in the white porcelain cup on the table. The mellow and fragrant black tea floated into Chu Ming's nose. It eased his vigilance a lot.

Nulia stopped chatting with Pedro. She looked at Chu Ming with a smile without any strange expression, "Sit down when you are here and have a good chat with your uncle."

"Okay, Mother Nulia."

Chu Ming came to the corridor, untied the cloth bag he had been carrying, and put the fruits he bought from the market into the fruit plate.

He smiled and said: "This is the fresh fruit I bought from the market this morning. Mother Nuria and Uncle Pedro, please try it."

Nulia smiled and said: I am determined. "

Pedro nodded slightly, sat on the chair, and just took a sip of black tea without touching the fruit on the fruit plate.

He suddenly asked: "Ren, you have broken through the epic, why don't you register with the Knight Tribunal?"

Chu Ming paused in his heart, and he scratched his head honestly, "I just broke through not long ago. In order to adapt to the epic power, this junior has been practicing in the guild and forgot about it for a while."

Pedro put down his tea cup and changed the subject, "In that case, let's put aside the registration for now. You don't have to rush to register with the Knight Tribunal."

Chu Ming couldn't help but show a look of astonishment. Although he knew that Pedro might simply come here to visit his tribe in the City of Sauron and not come for him, he didn't expect that Pedro was a The legend sent by the royal family actually reminded him to avoid being noticed by the royal family.

This quite meant that he wanted to protect Chu Ming, which made him secretly sigh in relief.

It seems that Jerome is right, it is really useful to find Pedro, the senior of the Bernudez family.

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and he showed an appropriately puzzled expression.

"Excuse me, Uncle Pedro, why is this?"

The man chuckled and said: "You just need to practice hard. You don't need to know so much. If anyone dares to make things difficult for you in the City of Sauron, you can come to me at the City Hall of Sauron."

Chu Ming nodded in thanks. He originally thought he was going to face a dangerous dilemma, but he didn't expect that he would be hugging someone's thigh.

With Pedro's protection, even if other members of the royal family discover his identity as an epic knight, they must consider whether they can afford to offend a legend when reporting it, unless the other two legends will challenge Pedro for his little epic knight. Dro put pressure on him, otherwise he would be in almost no danger in the City of Sauron.

It was just the first time he and Pedro met, and the man was so kind to him. Could it be that Pedro really had no other agenda and was just taking care of the younger members of the family...

While Chu Ming was happy, there was also a trace of concern in his heart.

Sure enough, Pedro's next question confirmed that Chu Ming's inner concerns were not unreasonable.

Pedro picked up the fresh fruit on the fruit plate and took a bite. He smiled and asked Nulia: "Nuria, is Renne married now?"

When Chu Ming heard what Pedro said, his heart tightened and he suddenly felt bad. He complained in his heart: "Good guy, it turns out that this guy came to Nulia's mother to be a matchmaker. I just said why is he so kind? I am happy for nothing." .”

Nuria shook her head slightly, "Our family, Ren, has been obsessed with cultivation and has not considered this matter yet."

"Uncle, why did you mention this?"

Pedro raised the corners of his mouth slightly and looked at Chu Ming, "While you are young, you should go out more and meet more people."

"Princess Katie of the royal family is now twenty-five years old. She is in her youth and extremely beautiful. If you are willing, I can help you connect."

Chu Ming was silent for a moment. He didn't expect that Pedro was really a matchmaker, but if he thought about it carefully, he could understand why the man did this.

Although Pedro has joined the royal family, it still cannot change the fact that he has the blood of Bernudes. In some party battles, Pedro was weak and incompatible with other legends. He arranged the marriage between Chu Ming and the royal princess. In fact, it was to strengthen his power within the royal family and to train Chu Ming as one of his own. After all, Chu Ming himself had half of the Bernudes bloodline and had a blood connection with him.

Chu Ming thought to himself: "You shouldn't have any expectations for him. This guy also has ulterior motives."

After thinking, he said: "Uncle Pedro, why me?"

Pedro crossed his fingers and laid them flat on the table. He said calmly: "You should be less than thirty years old this year."

"An epic knight who is less than thirty years old is a very dazzling existence even in the royal family. It is not that I chose you, but that you have this qualification yourself."

"If you and Princess Katie get married, in time you can break through the legend, and you can officially enter the power level of the Clinton Kingdom and see the real world with your own eyes."

"Aren't you moved?"

To be honest, Chu Ming had no emotions in his heart. He was not interested in the so-called power at all. In his opinion, the Clinton Kingdom was just a stop in his life, and he would not stay here forever.

But how to deal with Pedro's invitation was a problem. He couldn't imagine the consequences of refusing.

After thinking about it for a while, he said cryptically: "Although what my uncle said is very attractive, I still want to focus on cultivation and strive to become a legend as soon as possible. I have no plans for marriage yet."

Pedro finished the fresh fruit in his hand, wiped his mouth, and chuckled: "It is a good thing to have the heart to pursue the way of knighthood, but men always have to start a family, and you have to consider the continuation of the family bloodline. "

"Your marriage to Princess Katie is not urgent yet. In a few days, I will write to my wife in the royal city and ask her to come to the City of Sauron with Princess Katie. You young people can get to know each other first. emotion."

Pedro's tone was calm, with a bit of a smile, but he could not refuse, and he directly arranged the meeting between Chu Ming and Princess Katie.

Chu Ming understood that Pedro was determined to let him join the royal family, but the man never thought that Chu Ming had no interest in joining the royal family or in the struggle for power. Otherwise, he might consider changing candidates.

Since he couldn't refuse, Chu Ming just nodded and said: "Uncle Pedro, you can arrange it. I just want to see what a royal princess looks like."

Pedro smiled from the bottom of his heart and said, "I won't let you down. Princess Katie is a recognized beauty in the royal family. She has also practiced the way of knights and has deep blue strength. I believe that my uncle is."

Chu Ming complained in his heart: "I believe you are a ghost and you will only cause trouble for me."

The smile on his face remained unchanged, he nodded slightly and said, "Then I'll look forward to it."

After confirming Princess Katie's visit to Clay County, Chu Ming chatted with the man about other topics. Taking advantage of the fact that they were still harmonious, Chu Ming asked about the legendary knight.

He asked curiously: "I have always been curious about the difference between legendary knights and epic knights. Can my uncle explain it to me?"

Pedro said vaguely: "It's just that the secret of blood and the physical body are stronger. You are still very weak now, so there is no need to consider the legend."

"Whenever you become a top epic knight, I will naturally answer your questions and help you become a legend."

Not getting the information he wanted, Chu Ming could only hold back his curiosity and thanked the man: "Thank you, uncle."

An hour later, the conversation ended and Pedro left the courtyard, saying he had other things to do.

After Pedro left, Irina, who had been squatting behind Chu Ming, rubbed her numb legs and stood up.

There was some inexplicable excitement in her tone, "Master, you are getting married, okay!"

Chu Ming coughed lightly and said angrily: "Why are you so happy? It's not like you are getting married."

Irina laughed and said, "I'm just happy anyway."

Nulia, who was sitting aside, also tried to persuade her: "Ren, this may not be a bad thing, and you are not young anymore."

Chu Ming rubbed his temples with a headache, "Mother Nulia, I have my own sense of discretion and will make the right choice."

Marriage was impossible, so the only option was to temporarily delay the marriage, or to let Princess Katie personally reject the marriage between the two of them.

Nulia shook her head helplessly. She knew exactly what Chu Ming was thinking, but she couldn't persuade him and could only let him make his own decision.
