The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes

When the eastern sky just showed a white line, the dragon landed in the forest with a big basket.

Charles and a lady in leather armor with a long sword hanging from her waist jumped out of the basket.

"Excuse me, Olympus!" Charles said to the giant dragon beside him.

"You're welcome," Olympus replied, and then he handed a card to Charles with the tip of his paw's fingernails, "Please rate this service."

After Charles scored a perfect score on the card, he returned the card to Olympus.

Olympus, who had collected the cards, flew away with a basket, leaving Charles and the others alone in the glade.

At this time, it was dark in the woods, and that little bit of light could not illuminate the way for the two of them.

Fortunately, the dragon power that Olympus brought with him just now scared away all the monsters around, otherwise the two of them would have to be on guard against the danger from the dark.

A ball of light appeared above Charles' head, illuminating the surrounding area.

"Let's go, Arturia." Charles said to his partner, "We'll be able to reach our destination in the morning."

Arturia nodded, then followed Charles to the east.

In order not to reveal his identity, King Dumb Mao used another identity when he returned to human society this time.

In the past three hundred years, being born in Avalon City and its surrounding areas, naming boys "Artoria" and girls "Artoria" is the same as naming children "Jianguo" and "Jianguo" back then. Emancipation" is as common. Therefore, Duo Mao Wang Xing did not change his name, the pronunciation was the same, but the spelling of the letters of the name was changed to feminine spelling.

However, her surname is about to be changed, and no one dares to call herself the surname of the King of Knights.

In addition, she has the identity of a knight. She is an authentic knight of the small landlord, not the kind of free people who are rich enough to buy a knight's equipment and pretend to be outside.

She is now a knight of Arturia Poklonskaya under the command of Earl McGarden. She not only has complete documents, but also has a fief.

Charles gave her a piece of hill in his territory near the road.

In the future, the money paid by the people who go to that mountain to collect maple syrup will belong to Arturia, and she only needs to pay the tax to Charles.

Charles, on the other hand, returned this part of the tax to her in the name of the rent of Ex curry sticks, and set up a receipt.

At the same time, Artoria also has a knight's coat of arms designed by herself - a sword inserted in a stone.

All of these procedures were completed under the witness of the true God. Reimu personally helped Charles and the others to do a notarization in view of Charles's prosperous business development on the Demon Clan's territory.

If someone now disagrees with Artoria's identity, the priest only needs to make an appraisal of the ring on her finger.

This is also the reason why no one in this world can control private power or pretend to be a noble, because there is a professional organization for appraisal.

Nicholas II was very frightened at the beginning of Arturia's go-and-go trip. When he received Arturia's resignation letter early in the morning, he thought he was in the wrong position to get up. Hallucinations occurred.

After figuring out the cause and effect, Nicholas II approved her resignation.

Anyway, she was captured by Charles' direct ancestor, and there is nothing to say about leaving with Charles now.

On the contrary, it took two or three days for her to hand over her work, which prevented Charles from meeting with the caravan at the agreed place as planned.

However, Elizabeth had a record before, and now the destination of Charles and Artoria is a place where the caravan must pass south, and they can wait here for a few days to wait for the caravan.

When the sun had risen and it was about seven o'clock in the morning, Charles and the others came to the gate of a manor by the road.

This gate is just the symbolic gate of this huge manor. A two-meter-high and four-meter-wide wrought iron gate in the shape of a vine is flanked by shrub walls of more than 20 meters long. Although it is possible to bypass the only symbolic wall and enter the manor, it is not a way of serving as a guest. Only people who steal things will do this.

Next to the gate hangs a football-sized bronze bell, with a small hammer on the stand. Charles took the small hammer and struck the bell five times. In the butler's room in the central manor house, an identical bronze bell automatically rang five times at the same time.

"According to the identity of the visitor, the number of times the bell is tolled is different." Charles introduced to Artoria a custom that has only become popular in the East in the past two hundred years, "The commoner knocks once, the knight knocks twice, the baron three Down, four Viscounts, five Earls and Marquis, and six royals."

At this time, the bronze bell hanging at the door rang five times by itself, and Charles said to Arturia, "The owner of the manor has been notified, let's wait a moment."

Now Artoria decided to talk less and watch more, she stood silently behind Charles, just like an ordinary knight guard behind her master.

Not long after, a butler in a black tuxedo sat next to the driver of an open-top BMW and followed the car to the front door.

The housekeeper was first attracted by Artoria's indomitable sword-like temperament outside the door, and then he found a masked child standing in front of the female knight.

Soon, a recently rumored name appeared in his mind.

The white-haired butler, who was meticulously combed, opened the door, came to Charles, and then greeted him: "Guian, guests from afar, welcome to Greenfield Manor."

Charles only knew that this was the only way for the caravan to pass, but he didn't expect this to be the place his mother mentioned in his lifetime.

"I would like to extend my sincere greetings to the master of this place, the forerunner of art, Mrs. Very." Charles bowed to the butler, "I am Earl Charles McGarden from North Maplewood. During the journey, I hope to be able to harass here. day."

The butler turned to Charles with an inviting gesture, and then said, "Please don't be polite, Earl McGarden. My master has known your mother, Mrs. McGarden, for a long time."

After some courtesies, Charles and Artoria got into the carriage and headed to the core area of ​​the manor.

Not long after getting in the car, the butler said to Charles, "It's really unfortunate that the count is here~www.readwn.com~ Your family's caravan just left the manor three days ago."

"A'Fu and the others just left?" Charles asked in surprise.

The caravan of their family was originally led and managed by Charles' father, but when his grandfather died, it was changed to his father who was in charge of the house and sent the most trusted butler to manage the caravan.

This caravan came back from spring to autumn. Counting the time, now is the time when they went north from the Villingen Kingdom to the prairie, and then took a detour from the prairie back to the territory. This way, although the journey is a little farther, it is the road with the least toll.

Thinking of this, Charles sighed. Ah Fu's daughter was Charles' mother's maid, and the wives or mothers of many people in the caravan also worked as maids or cooks in his home. Now, they are all buried in the sea of ​​​​fire.

The housekeeper replied, "He knew what happened to your house, so he rushed back after replenishing the supplies."

"Thank you for telling me this news." Charles sighed. He was afraid that A'Fu, who was not too young, couldn't take such a heavy blow, and at the same time, he was afraid that A'Fu would make some irrational actions.

Then Charles asked, "Have the 'Tree and Wheels' caravan passed by here?"

"No." The butler replied, he obviously knew the relationship between Charles and the caravan, "It is estimated that they will come here in five days."

After Charles got the answer, he didn't say anything more, and he began to appreciate the surrounding idyllic scenery.

On both sides of the road is a large field of oat that has just been harvested, and you can see several houses in the middle of the wheat field in the distance, as well as the huge rotating blades of the windmill.

Directly in front of the road is a beautiful big house sitting on a mound.
