The Troublesome Hero Among the Heroes
Chapter 153
When the sun began to set, Steward sent Neo away, and Charles returned to the house with Modred and Aalto Evil God. The kind-looking old man was waiting for them in the dining room.
Although the self-proclaimed Lorenzo did not reveal his identity, Charles has learned from other sources that this person is Chief Steward of the City Lord of Mason City.
Mason City is not a city directly under the king, but the territory of a count here. The fight for ownership of the city in the southern part of the kingdom can run through the history of the kingdom.
Today is D+10. Charles and Modred have been disguising themselves for several days. Except for the difficulty of studying etiquette on the first day, Lorenzo is satisfied with everything else.
"Sit down and eat." Lorenzo said, pointing to the roast pork leg on the table.
"You did a great job today." Lorenzo started the day's routine summary, "No one can see through you, and the price of the crystal has been raised according to my request."
Speaking of this, the steward of the mansion here walked behind Charles their three people, and then placed two gold coins in front of each of them.
"This is a reward for your excellent work." Lorenzo left after speaking, leaving only Charles their three people and the steward in the restaurant.
Although Charles is a young and rich count in front of others, it is just a very good tool in Lorenzo's eyes. It is impossible to ask him and Charles to eat together.
After Aunt Aalto stuffed the gold coin in front of her into the place where the gold coin could be hidden, she started to cut the roasted pork leg with a knife, and then divided it among Charles and Modred.
"Eat more." Aunt Aalto put a large piece of roast meat on the plates in front of Charles and Modred respectively, seeing Charles helplessly shaking his head.
When eating every day, Aunt Aalto, who is in charge of dividing the meal, always distributes a large amount of meat to Charles and the two of them, which makes them eat every time. In her words, it is rare to have such delicious meat, so take this opportunity to eat more.
The past few days, Mordred’s little face is not as thin as before, and his body like ribs has begun to grow a bit of meat.
Because there was a steward who was watching them, the three of them didn't say much at the dinner table, just ate voraciously each minding their own business.
The taste of the three of them is naturally incompatible with the elegant temperament advocated by nobles. In Steward’s contemptuous eyes, the three of them sat on the chairs for a while, and then left together. Dinning room.
To make a full set of the show, Lorenzo arranged the lives of the three of them according to the standard of the real count. The bedrooms of their three people are together, Charles sleeps in the master bedroom, Mordred sleeps in the servants' room, and Aalto sleeps in the adjacent guard's room.
After scrubbing back, Charles coaxed Modred onto the bed.
"Do you want to hear a new story today or continue the story from last night?" Charles asked as he helped Mordred cover the quilt.
"Continue with the story of last night." Mordred replied.
So Charles picked up the "Knight King Biography" on the bedside table-which was taken from the study of the house-turned the bookmarked page, and continued from last night Read the progress.
"Knight King is waiting in front of the cave of monsters. In the dark forest at night, her ears are listening..."
Mudred, who did not know when he fell asleep, said After a soft snoring, Charles, who was sitting by the bed, clamped the bookmark, put the book back on the bedside table, and lightly tucked Modred's hand back into the quilt, and then helped her tuck the quilt back again.
After walking out of Mordred's room, Charles heard a low voice from Aalto's room next door. Although he doesn't know where the folk song is, he can hear the joy and hope for future life in the hearts of the singers.
The door to the room was ajar, and Charles saw Aunt Aalto sitting on the bed counting gold coins.
Because of the outstanding performance of the past few days, Lorenzo rewarded them with a lot of gold coins.
Although the fake dull hair on her head has no detection function, Aunt Aalto still felt Charles who was watching her counting money outside the room.
Mother Aalto beckoned Charles and motioned for him to come into the room.
Mother Aalto in pajamas is still very good if she doesn't look at her face. She has a very good figure from an adventurer background. Although her back muscles are not as good as the original, her chest muscles can surpass the original.
Aunt Aalto asked Charles to sit by the bed and asked: "How is your aunt's character, can you trust it?"
Although Charles and Cassandra It only took a few hours to get along, but he still replied: "It's pretty good. The manager of the hotel opposite the Adventurer’s Union trusted her very much. She said that she would let us work there as a guarantee, and the manager immediately agreed. ."
Lorenzo and the people behind him asked someone to pretend to be Charles. There is one person who can't get around this thing, that is, Cassandra, who shows up with someone's aunt. After Lorenzo made a huge profit to keep Cassandra silent, Cassandra also made a request of her own, that is, let her visit someone and them every other day.
Aunt Aalto is hearing this nodded, "Then it should be fine if I ask her to send the money for me."
"Who to send to?" Charles curiously asked, he only knew This aunt who was found far away is a former adventurer, and other circumstances are unknown.
"My son." Aunt Aalto's face glowed with maternal love at this time, "He is studying at City of Knowledge, but life there is very expensive, so I want to Send him the money."
Charles in the heart agrees with Aalto's statement. He has long heard that there is a place where consumption levels are not low, and learning is also a resource-consuming thing.
While talking about her son, Aunt Aalto put the gold coin on the bed back into a bag. The bag is silk with a white horse embroidered on it.
Finding that Charles was looking at her pocket, Aunt Aalto said: "This pocket was left by the child and his father. He used to save a big businessman, and then the businessman gave him the bag. ."
"Oh..." said Aunt Aalto sighed here, "Unfortunately, when the child was young, his dad participated in a mission to defeat the followers of Evil God with others in order to make money. I never came back."
"Later, I stopped being an adventurer. I took the money I saved and took the child back to my hometown. Then I usually planted the land, sometimes hunting, just like that. The child is pulling too much."
"If it wasn't for the child who wrote back last time and said he was in favor of a good set of armor, and I didn’t have that much money on hand, I wouldn’t accept it. This task is here."
Perhaps because of too much pressure accumulated in the last few days, Aunt Aalto was there nagging about the parents, so as to change her mood.
Charles acted as a loyal listener on the sidelines, responding to each other's words from time to time.
After a long time, Charles said goodbye and left Aalto's room.
After putting the money bag under the pillow, Aunt Aalto knelt down in front of the bed with her hands folded, and started the night prayer that was necessary before going to bed every night.
