Yellow hair can also have a husband-chasing crematorium

Finally, the interview phase was over. Langdon left a water magician and an earth magician, and did not expel Williams from the defense department.

The court magician of Williams quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

But then, he became proud again.

Haha, the little duke really can't do without me. Magicians in the main defense department are rare, right?

Although it's not that I can't find another place to work, but it's really influential if I get too stiff with my previous employer. It's better not to move or not.

Langdon could roughly guess what Magister Williams was thinking.

Speaking of this, he had to complain about his father again.

They only hired one magician!What a surprise!

Didn't Dad know that only one magician would make him think he was indispensable, two magicians could be competitive, and three magicians were the basic talent pool? !

Considering the financial problem now, it is not easy to invest too much in magicians for the time being. We can only hire three first. In theory, it should be able to kill Williams' arrogance, but this guy is likely to start talking about his qualifications , Suppress newcomers...

In this case, some preventive measures must be taken.

So Langdon called Williams over alone.

"Is there anything to order? Duke?" Master Williams, who was not expelled, asked refreshedly.

"Well, there is actually something I should have told you before, but I forgot, I just remembered."

Master Williams raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter?"

Langdon smiled politely: "It's like this, Helena has awakened the defensive bloodline magic, and because it is not stable enough, she stayed in the temple of the imperial capital to adjust her state..."

Master Williams: "..."

Fuck! ! !This little duke did it on purpose! ! !

You can tell when you come back to see him on the first day!Why choose now! ! !

The little duke had a real knack for manipulating people's hearts.

After letting him worry about the recruitment for a few days, just as he was relieved to be able to stay, he immediately told him the news...

This sudden ups and downs is too much a test of one's psychological endurance.

It's beating him!

We can't blame Williams for having such a big reaction. He has been really suffering these days.

Moreover, the path of blood magic is different from their natural magic, and it is likely to be better than him after decades of learning when he just awakened. The only disadvantage is that if the family has no records, it is difficult to learn anything, and he can only explore by himself.

In addition, Helena is the adopted daughter of the Stuart family, so she is naturally more valued than an outsider like him. If only one of the two defense magicians can stay, it can only be Helena.

……Huh?Wait, the little duke is telling him this now...

Recalling the rumors that he vaguely heard that Helena and the little duke didn't seem to get along very happily in the imperial capital, Williams came to a realization.

Not only is it beating him, but it is also giving him a chance!

Although if he was too cautious, the little duke would give up on him without hesitation, but on the other hand, as long as he could make himself more important than Helena, the little duke would actually stand by his side!

He understands! ! !

Williams looked at Langdon with a little more fear, and even his words became a little humble: "Your Excellency, I understand, and I swear to be loyal to you from now on."

This is not a dude who is easy to fool, but as long as he has value, he will not be given up. From this point of view, it is very reassuring.

A mere adopted daughter, even if she awakens blood magic, how can she beat this little duke? Outsiders have to look like outsiders!

"I have deeply reflected on the slack of these years, so I will go back to improve my magic and strive to advance as soon as possible!"

Langdon: "...? Well, as long as you understand."

In fact, Langdon just used Helena's name to simply hint at the other party, to show that he was not irreplaceable.

The main purpose is to make the other party tighten up, and don't get too flustered just because you can stay.

According to his vision, Master Williams may feel aggrieved and a little dissatisfied, but the ultimate goal can still be achieved.

...But the reaction of Master Williams seems a bit strange, as if he has been beaten...

Langdon, who didn't know that Williams was overthinking, was a little confused, but since the effect seemed to be better than expected, he resisted the urge to ask "what do you understand?", and nodded as if he was inscrutable. , accepted the other party's allegiance.

Probably because I finally felt a sense of crisis, and I couldn't care less about being threatened with layoffs, which made sense.

Alas, in this world, it is really difficult for a duke with such a status to gain the respect of a great magician, so he has to become stronger quickly.

I just hope that he can find useful information about his own blood magic from the library.

Langdon absent-mindedly settled the matter of the court mage, and then stepped forward in a delicate mood, intending to meet Bridget, the hard-headed senior who kept the promise.

Although the agreement was remembered, the other party did not come to touch porcelain, but Langdon had been stabbed in the back too many times after all, even if Bridget looked like he was missing a string and didn't seem like someone who would engage in conspiracy, he still Don't dare trust Bridget right away.

At least let's have a chat first, confirm what the senior sister thinks, and whether she has any other goals, and then make a decision.

Langdon took a deep breath and walked into the reception room.

"The Duke!"

Senior Bridget immediately stood up, looking at him with sparkling eyes like a puppy, and Langdon even had a vision of a tail wagging behind her.

...Don't, don't waver!It's time to ask!

Langdon stabilized his mind and asked his first question: "Long time no see, senior sister... Let me ask, do you know Lilica?"

"Senior Lilica?"

Bridget didn't show any strange expression, and answered the words very naturally: "I know, after all, mixed blood is quite rare, and I heard that she used to be from the Stuart family, so I went to call her on purpose." Say hello."

Langdon couldn't help asking, "What did she say?"

"Huh? Didn't say anything. Senior Lilica has always been very taciturn, and I was the one who was talking."

Bridget scratched her cheek with her index finger embarrassingly: "I hope senior doesn't find me annoying... Uh, probably not? After I finished talking about the Duke helping me, Senior Lilica encouraged me."

Langdon asked in confusion, "How did she encourage you?"

"'Then don't forget the promise' - that's what Senior Lilica said."

Langdon: "..."

This is also called encouragement! ! !You can beautify too! ! !

But it is indeed Lilyka's style, the feeling that she just replied after someone said a lot...

Bridget also smirked: "Actually, my relationship with senior Lilica should be pretty good. After all, when others talk around her, she will directly beat them away, but I don't care."

Langdon was very confused: "What are you talking about with her?"

Bridget replied naturally: "Of course I'm talking about you, the Duke."

Langdon: "...we only met once. Is there so much to talk about?"

"Why not." Bridget sighed, "The duke is really worrying. Although I often go out on missions, I always hear some strange rumors when I come back to inquire about it... Senior Lilica asked I don't care about it, but I just care about it, so I always complain to Senior Lilica..."

Now that this topic was brought up, Langdon had to ask, "So, did you come to me to apply for the job because you saw the clarification in the newspaper? If you didn't get the clarification, you didn't plan to come?"

Bridget was inexplicable: "No matter what the Duke has become, the agreement is the agreement. The Duke did spend so long comforting me at that time. Could it be that because you have changed, can I forget all of these? Impossible, But after knowing that the duke was slandered, I was really happy—but, isn’t the agreement after the duke becomes a duke? I was on a mission for half a year, and I’ll come here as soon as the emperor knows you’ve inherited the title!”

Langdon's mood is very complicated now, a little speechless, and a little want to laugh.

Obviously answering "I have always trusted the Duke", would it be more favorable to him, wouldn't it?

In the end, he wanted to reveal something that he had never trusted, and then turned around and said that the agreement was an agreement, even if he was really that kind of person, he would still fulfill the agreement...Honesty is so honest that people can't get angry, only emotion is left.

Indeed, a person who has only met once, why should he force others to trust him all the time?

Rather, he only met once, and the agreement was just casually said as a joke, but the other party actually took it seriously, and cared about things that had nothing to do with her because of him, what else could he complain about?

"...Thank you." Langdon smiled relaxedly, "In that case, I will formally ask, are you willing to be my knight?"

Bridget stood up from the sofa and knelt down on one knee in front of Langdon. Her serious and heroic face made her look a lot more reliable, and she was completely different from the one who jumped away just now.

But when she raised her head and looked at Langdon, the joy in her eyes couldn't be concealed, which made people feel familiar again.

Bridget responded solemnly and joyfully.

"Of course—this is my honor, Your Excellency, I will be your sword from now on, please use me as you like, I will swear to protect you to the death."

Asking the palace director to take Bridget through the process, Langdon returned to the study by himself and found that Shalltear was already waiting there.

Xia Tiya adjusted her glasses: "You seem to be in a good mood."

"Well—it's really a good mood." Langdon didn't deny it, "When you forget, someone still remembers the agreement with you... Wouldn't you be happy when this happened? This is the royal knight A genius magic swordsman recognized by the head of the regiment."

Moreover, the appearance of Bridget actually meant a lot to Langdon.

Before and after Langdon recovered his memory, although his personality didn't change much, his thinking mode was uncontrollably affected by the memory of his previous life.

When the memory is not restored, the influence of the previous life is relatively weak, that is, it is more obvious in treating people as human beings, which also causes him to always like to do some behaviors that are completely inconsistent with the noble education, such as helping others.

But after recovering his memory, this kind of experience of always encountering Pengci and revenge, coupled with the imminent life crisis, made Langdon more inclined to protect himself first, and had no time to think about helping others.

In the past, Langdon might have been kind and didn't want to reciprocate, but he wanted to be happy, but it turned out that doing so was stupid, and Langdon also felt that he was stupid in the past, so after he recovered his memory, he didn't do similar things again. up.

However, the appearance of Bridget warmed Langdon's heart which had been refrigerated by his disappointment with the world.

For him, it is just a matter of lifting a finger, but for others, it may just change the trajectory of life.

——The kindness he once released, everything he did, Bridget proved that these were not meaningless, how could Langdon be unhappy?

Xia Tiya said in a joking tone: "I thought you were happy because you had another beautiful girl by your side."

Compared to Flora, Shalltear has a better mentality.

What's more, Bridget didn't show any extra feelings for Langdon, and it seemed that she was really just here to fulfill the agreement, so although she was awkward that Langdon seemed to have multiple competitive partners, she was limited to It's awkward, but you can still joke normally.

Langdon's smile collapsed: "...No, just let me go."

"That's right, you are afraid of women."

"I was just joking at the time, so don't keep mentioning this." Langdon complained, "It's just a little more worrying, not to the point of being really fearful of women... For normal people, there is nothing to worry about."

However, there seems to be a lot of beautiful girls around him. Obviously, the average appearance in this world is similar to that of his previous life, but for some reason, all the girls he knows are very good-looking...

Although Langdon wanted to think it was a coincidence, the words of the eldest nephew suddenly flashed through his mind at this moment.

【"In short, pay more attention to the new beautiful girls around you, they may all be the devil!"】

"........."

Langdon mused.

There is too little information about the demon king, and because of the strange characteristics of the demons, if you really want to be vigilant, no one can be trusted, but living like that is too tiring.

Until now, Langdon still doesn't quite understand what the concept of demon awakening is. Is it to restore the memory of being a demon?Or do you wake up and suddenly feel that your relatives and neighbors are not the same as you, and there is no pressure to kill at will?What's with that weird cohesion?

But since the devil is also a demon, it means that the awakening of the devil also needs a process. He is suspicious here. If the devil has not awakened yet, it is a waste of feelings. I can't stop it either.

In short, compared to being vigilant against everyone from the beginning and forcing myself to become mentally weak... the elder nephew's proposal is quite reasonable.

Treat the people around you well, maybe someone has awakened into a demon, and you can still retain a little friendship.

Therefore, even if Bridget will awaken into a demon in the future, at least for now, he is willing to believe that the other party's feelings for him are sincere, and he is willing to respond with sincerity.

"Hey, I think too much."

Think about it carefully, compared to him, the eldest nephew who is the son of prophecy is more dangerous!

As an ordinary duke, he has no plans for the demons. If he wants to go undercover, he must go undercover next to the Son of Prophecy!

That's right, I will pay more attention to the beautiful girl next to my nephew in the future...

Langdon signed the documents that needed to be signed brought by Shatear, and then called Lei Shidong, and explained his analysis to Lei Shidong.

Lei Shidong was silent for a while, and replied with a wry smile: "Uncle, I am not as good as you, the beautiful girls I am familiar with are Flora and Lilica..."

Langdon: "...then you are miserable."

"Flora is a vessel descended from the gods, she must not be a demon king, Lilica..."

Lei Shidong is a little bit tangled: "Her line is a bit strange. I played a normal ending. Obviously, many pitfalls have not been filled, such as her past. I didn't say anything at all, but the devil should be a new character and should not be covered. The strategy character that has already appeared, right? Speaking of which, what happened to you and Lilica? In the game, the yellow hair abused Lilica, but uncle, you wouldn’t do that, would you?”
