A dragon who doesn't want to be a killer is not a good businessman
Chapter Fifty-One: The Bond of Reason
It does not seem to be in line with noble etiquette to visit someone else's home late at night.
But the Grande family has never had this rule, and Morgan doesn't take it seriously, unless it affects his ability to make money. To a certain extent, the "surprise attack" strategy will help him implement his hobby - to control everything.
Because of this, he was also happy to see that when Frank opened the door for the second time in the middle of the night and saw him with sleepy eyes, he forcibly pinched his penis to wake himself up, and then looked over with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.
"Why am I so not surprised..."
Just when Frank was about to complain, he suddenly saw someone behind Morgan and took half a step back in fright.
Mo Gan added the second half of the sentence for him, "So I have brought you a little surprise - but you can rest assured that it is not this harmless nobleman."
But Frank didn't listen to a word.
Perhaps it was because upon closer inspection, the king's solemn demeanor did not look like that of just another passerby. Even if Mo Gan deliberately reminded him, he did not immediately come to his senses and even seemed rude.
"Don't look." Even Morgan felt helpless at this unexpected and reasonable change of gaze, "Frank, I'm not just visiting you this time, nor am I looking for anything to do with you, or even looking for you.
You asked for boss Fleming’s personal information.”
Only then did Frank come back to his senses and was greatly surprised, "What?"
This Mr. Grande who came to visit me five times did not regard him as a tool. This was simply an accident among accidents.
"Of course, I won't give you a reward." Mogan mentioned an important point that only he cared about, and then said the purpose, "I want to tell you a story."
"I hope you really just want to tell stories and don't have any other agenda..." Frank felt uncomfortable and rubbed his eyes, "You don't know, I had to work overtime for no reason during the day, and I watched it all by myself.
I’m exhausted from stalling all day…”
But Mogan's next words abruptly woke him up again.
Not to mention rubbing the unknown sand out of his eyes, or soothing the tired and overtight eye muscles, Frank almost hit his eyeball with his fist, and froze in place with a half-clenched fist.
"The story I'm going to tell mainly happened nearly a year ago, and the protagonist is a fourteen-year-old boy named Will."
In a prosperous city in the Kingdom of Cole, a knight captain has led the local knights for decades, guarding the stability of the city with vigorous strength and strength.
The knights of the Kingdom of Cole share the title of "knight" from top to bottom. There are only prefixes specially granted by the queen to commend the knight's own special abilities or achievements. The general title of knights will not be directly distinguished based on the level of positional strength.
Coexisting with it is the title system, which is currently the only way to distinguish between high and low positions in the Kingdom of Cole——) But the Kingdom of Cole is not a country where rank is solely determined by blood.
The knights of the kingdom who defended one side should be rewarded. Because of this, the knight captain who was born in poverty and was later called into the knights also became a viscount at the age of forty because of his outstanding achievements.
The knight captain has extraordinary strength and high reputation. He has almost no obstacles in his career and life. And he is not slacking off in his family life either. He and his wife have raised two children together.
They were twin siblings, the daughter was named Conner and the son was named Will.
The two children were born late, and the knight captain and his wife thought they would have no heirs, so they loved them very much, but they would not relax in their education.
The promotion happened just in time for the two children to reach school age. The couple also used the income of the knight captain to arrange tutors for the two children exclusively for the nobility, and the daily classes were filled up.
They say that they no longer need such extraneous things, but for children, knowledge and education are lifelong gifts - Will grew up in such an environment.
The two siblings were surrounded by teachers of noble children, who not only taught them abundant knowledge of astronomy and geography, the beauty of art and literature, but also taught them to be humble and polite.
Due to family influence, the two siblings still retained the simplicity and enthusiasm of their poor parents, as well as some of the real "weapons" of knights.
Be brave and strong.
Especially my sister Kangna. She has liked to stand on the wall and watch the knights' drills since she was a child, dreaming that she could become a warrior someday.
As an initial exercise, she also had to practice fighting skills at home with branches, stepping back and forth, at least to bluff people, and even tried to lift heavy objects at home every day, often making a mess accidentally.
In comparison, Will is timid and does not have such clear enthusiasm.
He only thought that in addition to his sister who would definitely become a knight like his father, there should also be someone in the family who could fulfill his parents' wish and become a noble scholar with rich knowledge.
Will wasn't sure he wanted this kind of future, but he couldn't think of any other options.
On their fourteenth birthday, her father allowed the two children to make their own expectations for the future. Kangna excitedly asked her father to take time out to conduct "warrior training" for her, and she was approved.
But Will was extremely confused. During such a serious conversation, he felt empty-headed and had no idea what he wanted.
Fortunately, his mother was considerate and saw his doubts, so she communicated with his father. The two decided not to interfere and took the initiative to put Will's wish on hold until tomorrow to make a decision.
Will still remembers that his father once repeated the Queen's words to him in such earnest words.
"Her Majesty the Queen once said, 'There is no 100% result in the world, you can create your own future.' Will, we also hope that you will not be bound by our wishes and can create the future you want."
In order to find what he wanted, Will began to read a variety of books.
Strange books.
That was content that would not be mentioned in the class of aristocratic tutors, including anecdotes between the mountains and the sea, anecdotes about the Kingdom and the Continent, running through the history of all races - Will also knew that some of them were true and some were false, but he was aimless and just
Can be found everywhere.
Will thinks these are very interesting, but he is not happy to spend his life choosing one of them.
Before he found the target he wanted, Kangna came to find him.
"Are you also interested in pirates?" Connor approached Will excitedly.
The relationship between the siblings is actually very good, but as they get older they often don't study together.
Ever since Kangna decided to be a knight and participated in the knight training arranged by her father, the two of them rarely played together, and even "parted ways" in their work and rest time.
Will muttered softly, "I'm not like you, my goal is so clear...but aren't pirates robbing? Why do you care about this?"
In his understanding, future warriors like Connor who are destined to become knights must be the embodiment of justice, and of course they must be incompatible with those evil pirates in the book.
"It's not just that, you still haven't seen enough!" Kangna couldn't stop talking about the topic she was interested in. "In addition to pirates who burn, kill and loot, there are also teams that are not recognized by the country. They sail freely on the high seas.
Treasure hunting without restraint, such as the recently famous Blue Eagle Pirates..."
Will still couldn't understand it. But after reading so much, he really didn't get any results. He also agreed that he had read too little, and maybe he couldn't find the goal.
"Then why not train with me?" Kangna suggested. "Even if you want to be a scholar, it's not a bad thing to be able to fight. At least you can exercise. Maybe you will become a mage in the future!"
So Will obeyed, but within a few days, he regretted it again.
"Come on, we're only half a circle away!"
Looking at his sister who was running around the city wall so fast that she still had the strength to turn back and shout to him when she ran ahead of him, Will felt more and more like he was on a pirate ship.
He even had some doubts as to whether his father secretly used the potion on his sister in advance. Otherwise, he just missed a month of special training. How could he be so different from his twin sister in terms of physical fitness?
In this way, Will practiced hard for a week and finally plucked up the courage to give up. However, when he was too guilty to see his father, he still planned to find the sister who took him on the pirate ship to talk first.
It was early spring, and there was still a while before the special training in the evening.
With years of understanding, Will found his sister trying to box with a big tree in the backyard.
But he obviously didn't express what he meant clearly the first time.
"Actually, I also feel that this kind of special training is a bit annoying." Kangna was very frank. "It took me a long time to wait until my father said that he would teach me how to be a warrior, but he didn't even give me a sword. He said that he didn't have the physical fitness to do it.
Nothing worked – I just didn’t think he had time to teach.”
Will was surprised to find that his sister who was willing to train actually felt the same way.
He finally had the illusion that "this blood relationship is not just a decoration in terms of commonality", and he had the desire to pursue this matter, even beyond the idea of correcting what he had not said clearly.
"Then what do you want to do?" Will blurted out.
"During the special training in the evening, we will go to the Knights to get two swords!" Kangna clenched her fists, "I don't say whether to use it or not, but at least touch it. If we are caught, we will go directly to the showdown with father!"
Will knew that his sister Kangna had always been resentful.
They are obviously the children of knights. Compared with the children of other knights, although their father gave them tutors, he kept them from learning fighting skills until Kangna made a formal request on their fourteenth birthday.
He also wanted to help his sister fulfill her wish, so he bit the bullet and agreed to the bold plan of the Knights at Night.
But what neither of them expected was that the change would happen before nightfall.
That night, Connor and Will, who had run half a symbolic circle around the city, slipped back into the city through the south gate, climbed over the wall and jumped into the knights' camp in the city, but they didn't see any knights training or patrolling.
.
The two didn't think anything was wrong at first, so they took their swords and ran away.
In fact, Will had already noticed something was wrong on the way, because the bustling and noisy city seemed quieter than before, and most of the houses on both sides of the road were closed - he was particularly sensitive to this subtle change.
Kangna, who often observed the knights and was familiar with their daily routine, found it even more bizarre.
"Let's go home." Kangna decided immediately, "Something happened in the city, otherwise the knights would not be left alone. Maybe they encountered a mission where everyone went out together, and my father may be there. Then I need to tell my mother."
Before they even got close to their home, they saw smoke and fire rising from a familiar location in the distance.
The two children already had a bad premonition and did not dare to approach directly. They tried to stand on the roof of another house and supported each other for a while. Will was pulled up by Kang Na who jumped up first.
All that caught his sight was the light of fire shooting into the sky.
