Chapter 558 Returning to the City (Part 2)
I haven't had time to eat at noon. He set off and kept on his way, and finally arrived in the city before dusk.
There was a residence in the city, and a servant came to greet him, and led Romon and Tekaxiu to the room. Seeing them both start talking, they retreated knowingly.
Tekaxiu looked at his back and said, "My lord, the attitude here is good, and the vigilance is high, but it is not indifferent. It makes people feel very comfortable."
"Well, the price here is quite comfortable." Romon said with a smile.
Tekaxiu really didn't know how much the rent here was, so he asked curiously, and after Romon told him, he was speechless: "Sure enough, the price is really...comfortable."
"Did you notice it just now? The ordinary servants here are at least at the level of a first-level fighter. This servant is at least a second-level fighter. Don't think about it. How amazing it is to be a fourth-level fighter now. The way to learn is to Endless, well, come in and talk about it." Romon said looking at the back of the one who was going away.
This servant is in charge of the affairs of his small courtyard. Romon has known him for a few days. He has a smooth personality and a good character. He is very talented in combat skills. Although he doesn't know why he came to a hotel as a servant, But the salary here is indeed higher than that of ordinary adventurers. Everyone has their own aspirations, but they cannot be forced.
"My lord, I will train hard. I plan to take a few missions and kill some little devils in my free time. As my lord said, fighting is the best way to train myself." Tekaxiu said respectfully, knowing that Romon After his identity, his goal was immediately crossed, and now he aims to become a knight.
The two of them walked in while talking. What no one noticed was that the servant just now turned around at this moment and looked at the backs of the two of them enviously. Standing for a long time, a long time.
"My lord, the environment here is really good. No wonder the price is so expensive." As soon as he entered the yard, Tekaxiu said in admiration, which revealed his true nature. No matter what, Tekaxiu is a pure The warriors here are not very literate, and it is difficult to show the skills of the hereditary servants of the nobles. No, they have exposed the breath of mercenaries again.
In this regard, Romon basically didn't care, looked at Tekaxiu, and said: "Yes, that's it, by the way, your current clothes are still the clothes you came back in the morning, there is a lot of dust, you go to wash them first Take a bath. Change clothes, it's night, let's go out to eat together."
"Yes, my lord!"
half an hour later.
"Let's just go here. I heard that the food there is pretty good." Romon took Tekaxiu, who had changed into clean clothes, to the street. The commercial street they were on,
They are all very high-end shops. After walking for a while, I saw a very nice hotel.
There are all kinds of professionals in the hotel, but, relatively speaking, the professionals who can come here are not low-level, and they are not the poor and poor people who have no money to patronize.
As soon as I entered the first floor, I saw that in the lobby with a good environment, one-third of the guests were already seated, and it wasn't very noisy because it wasn't time for dinner.
"Do you know? Eagle Druid..." As soon as they entered, they heard someone talking about Romon, and both of them stopped.
"Do you know? The Giant Eagle Druid is a remarkable figure. Although he is not very old, I heard that he is already a tenth-level advanced Druid..."
Romon and Tekaxiu looked at the voice of the voice, and saw a man who looked like a businessman, who was talking to his companion about the giant eagle druid.
Looking at the people around him, all of them were listening attentively, one knew that the other party must have been talking for a while before this.
"My lord, someone is talking about you." Tekaxiu turned his face away. He smiled at Romon, feeling very proud in his heart. You must know that Romon is his lord. Leaving aside the Viscount far away, the deeds of the Giant Eagle Druid have already begun to spread in this county, although most of them are The people here are all businessmen from the county they just left. It is precisely because of the spread of these floating population that some things can spread across the entire continent.
Most of what poets praise is the deeds of people who have become heroes, while what businessmen spread is some worth mentioning things they have encountered before. , There is brilliance on my face.
Romon smiled, and took Tekaxiu to a table not far from theirs by the window. Romon was wearing a good-quality but low-key ordinary robe at this time, which did not attract the attention of others.
A hotel clerk came over long ago, and asked with a smile: "You two, what do you want to eat? Here is the menu of the small shop. Please take a look."
The clerk has a very exquisite booklet in his hand, which is actually the same as the menu in the modern world, except that the materials used in this shop are even more exquisite. After all, the people who patronize here are all from the city of Kexiu. upper-middle-class figures.
There are no pictures, and there are very detailed descriptions and introductions behind each dish and wine, at least it is more objective than listening to people talking about it with empty teeth.
Romon looked at it himself and ordered a few dishes. I ordered a bottle of wine, and asked Tekashio to order.
Tekaxiu had never been to this kind of place before. Seeing the expensive price above, he was a little apprehensive at first. However, under Romon's instructions, he finally chose a few foods on the menu that he was more interested in.
"What are you afraid of? This time I will pay for it!" After the man left, seeing that Tekaxiu was still in pain, Romon joked.
Tekaxiu smiled, thinking that his lord is indeed rich, so he felt at ease.
After the food arrived, it tasted really good. Although it cost a lot of money, it was still a good deal. They are all famous local food, and it would be difficult to eat them again after leaving Kexiu City.
Drinking a kind of fruit wine made from fruits and flowers, neither of them spoke, but quietly listened to the high-spirited talk of the person at the next table.
They are all talking about recent events, about adventurers, about policies, and talking about the large-scale mission a few days ago, because the scale of the mission was very large, and the participating elites Many people died, and most of the topics people talked about during this time were inseparable from this incident.
"The person who killed the devil baron with his own hands is said to be a druid. What's going on? Druids shouldn't be the main combatants, right?" Someone asked curiously.
Where is the strength of the demon baron, can a druid kill it?
The person next to him said: "Don't underestimate the druid's combat strength. I heard that the druid who killed the demon baron is a famous figure in other counties. Do you know what he is capable of? A tenth-level young druid, this one is beyond the reach of others..."
"Really? Thousand Devils Slashing. This name is very powerful. I heard that there is also a young druid who is also very powerful. I heard that it is a giant eagle druid..."
"Cut! You don't know that, they are actually the same person..."
Listening to these discussions, Romon was a little amused.
To be honest, this time, because he killed the devil baron himself, he was sought after by everyone, which made him feel somewhat ashamed.
Before he killed the Demon Baron, this one had already been unable to move. Anyone who went up to it could kill it, and it had nothing to do with his own strength.
If you want to say, it can only be said that everyone else was in a state of healing at that time, only he was fine and capable of cleaning up the battlefield.
As for all kinds of rumors that are being released now, they are not harmful to him anyway, and Romon is too lazy to pay attention to them. Even if someone is dissatisfied with this kind of statement, firstly, he did not pass it on, and secondly, he really killed the devil baron himself. This is indeed true.
Anyway, because of this incident, his reputation has been greatly improved, and Romon is still happy to see it.
The meal was very enjoyable. The most important thing is that Romon felt that not only did he not let the people of the Lord of Radiance calculate this matter, on the contrary, he took advantage of the other party. Under the circumstances, Romon is still very satisfied with the occurrence of this kind of thing.
He also thought about it carefully. The reason for this situation should have something to do with the power of this mission. The combination of forces from all sides will also have a great check and balance effect on the residence of glory.
Even the local nobles don't want to see the power of the temple or the church is too strong. Is the person with the least background being pushed to the forefront?
Whether it's a good thing, such as the rise in reputation now, or a bad thing, such as being almost used as a scapegoat, isn't it all because he has no background, no real rights, and tyrannical strength at this time?
Although he had already reached the eleventh level at this time, he was still far behind to compete with a temple.
Thinking of this, the little bit of complacency that had arisen because of taking advantage of it suddenly disappeared.
He thought to himself: "It's really worthless. A little benefit will make you forget your current situation. Whether it is good or bad, they are all pawns. You can be so proud of being a pawn. I think your brain is really flooded."
Back at the residence, someone was already waiting there, because he had left his accommodation address in the Adventurer's Union, and it was very convenient for the envoys of the Adventurer's Union to find him.
The person who was looking for him was sent by the president of the local adventurer's guild. However, he was not invited by the adventurer's guild. The person from the guild just sent an admission certificate to Romon for the local count.
"I am here to congratulate Lord Romon first. The Earl will personally confer the title of Lord on you. You will once again have the legal territory of three knight realms here. The ceremony for awarding the Lord will be held in the conference hall on the second floor of the Adventurer's Guild. , Lord Earl will come in person to grant you a certificate of identity. Please be sure to come to the meeting hall on the second floor of the Adventurer’s Union before ten o’clock tomorrow morning. We will have someone waiting there for you to arrange relevant matters for you. This It is an admission pass for the conference, please keep it. Of course, even if you don’t hold this, with your current fame, the staff of the trade union will know you.” After handing the entry pass to Romon, the man talking.
The other party said politely, so Luo Meng naturally replied very politely. After sending this person away, Luo Meng went back to the room and thought about the whole thing. Judging from the current situation, what he guessed when he came back It should be right.
The honors and benefits he has obtained now are a means of balancing the power of the various forces: "Forget it, under the current situation, just be a chess piece. There is no harm at present."
There was nothing to do that day, and the next morning, Romon got up early. After tidying up, he changed into a more modest robe, called a carriage at the door, and took the carriage to the Adventurer's Guild. As for Tekaxiu, He was left in the courtyard, and if someone else came to look for him, there would be a way to deal with it.
The carriage passed through the streets and alleys, and soon came to the Adventurer's Union in Kexiu City.
The rough architectural style is eye-catching.
Romon got off the carriage, paid the driver the fare, and walked in.
It was more than nine o'clock at this time, and there was still some time before ten o'clock. As today's protagonist, it wouldn't hurt for Romon to come here earlier.
Sure enough, as the person said yesterday, seeing him coming, the people in front of the door and the guides didn't bother to ask for Romon's ID. They all seemed to be very familiar with him.
The conference hall on the second floor is very well arranged, because it is just a simple awarding ceremony, and the space used is not large. At ten o'clock, people came over one after another.
At about ten or ten o'clock, the local Earl came here under the protection of a group of people. He was an old man who looked very dignified.
It was the first time for Romon to meet this person. When the two met, the other party seemed quite enthusiastic, and Romon was also very polite and respectful. The two chatted briefly, and the ceremony began.
"...I now declare that due to Mr. Romon's meritorious service, the territory is granted here." After reading a long paragraph, the count finally spoke the key words.
Luo Meng walked over with a respectful face, took the document from the count's hand, and accepted the award from the other party.
The ceremony, at this point, is officially over.
Next, some local nobles came up to chat with Romon, because his ability has been spread around, and many nobles who asked for him were very polite in their words.
After finishing the work here, on the way back in the carriage, Romon had time to unfold the paperwork and the map of his new territory, and look at the specific location of the Lordship. After seeing it, he was immediately satisfied.
It turned out that the earl granted him three knight collars, which were obviously connected with the two knight collars he originally got. In this way, he would save a lot of trouble in management.
"This earl is very good at being a man." After receiving the map and documents into the space, Romon thought secretly. (!)
