From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider
Chapter 7 Precious Gift
The guest room where Krober rests is on the second floor near the watch tower - this is what he and Flack requested, because this room can see the scene of the Knights training.
The room provided for Baron Adam to rest is located on the top floor, right next to Count Stephen's bedroom, separated by three full floors.
Although it was midnight, because the banquet had just ended, the entire castle was still lit with a large number of oil lamps, and a large number of servants worked all night to restore the entire hall to its original state before the nobles dine tomorrow morning.
With Knight Foster, Krober quickly crossed the stairs one after another and soon reached the top floor.
On both sides of the stairs on the top floor, there were two heavily armored knights standing on the left and right. After they saw Krober coming up, a heavy armored knight on the left stopped him.
"Master Clobber, Sam says hello to you. Baron Adam has been waiting for you for a long time. I will lead you to the room where Lord Adam rests.
Sam Wineglass, one of Clobber’s acquaintances in the Moonlight Mushroom family.
The family he belongs to is not an aristocrat, but it is one of the top wealthy businessmen in the area. The most important property of the family is the Broken Wheel Tavern located on the west side of the city. The surname "Wine Glass" also comes from this, and is used to represent the family's most precious items or properties.
Sam is a young man in his mid-twenties. He was recruited as a squire by Earl Stephen's knights when he was a teenager. Now in his twenties, he has reached the peak of apprentice knights. It is expected that he will have a lot of confidence before he is thirty. After being promoted to a formal knight, Sam can become a low-level military noble under Earl Stephen and have a new surname.
Under the leadership of Sam, Krober came to the room where Baron Adam was resting. Sam left after knocking on the door.
As soon as he left, the door opened, and it was Krober's uncle, Adam Golden Rose, who opened the door.
He changed out of the dress he had worn to the party and put on a loose, comfortable brown shirt.
Seeing that his nephew came to him, Adam was also very happy. He smiled and invited Krober into his room.
The decoration of the room is very luxurious, with carpets made of high-grade Warcraft furs covering the floor, and a huge python head hanging on the wall.
Signaling the servant who had poured the coffee to leave the room, Adam invited Krober to take a seat.
"Sit down, Krober. Don't worry too much about these etiquettes in front of me. I am your uncle."
Krober smiled slightly and sat directly opposite Baron Adam, picked up the coffee on the table and smelled it.
"The aroma is rich and mellow. When you close your eyes and savor it carefully, you feel a sense of silence like the night. This shouldn't be a local product of the principality, right?"
Although Krober's life is not very wealthy, he has not fallen behind in education at all. Tasting is also one of the aristocratic courses.
Adam nodded.
"This is a high-end product from the Emerald Kingdom. I don't have much collection here. I originally planned to send you a jar. Who would have thought that I would meet you in the Castle of Moonlight, so I simply gave it to you in advance."
Krober didn't like drinking coffee very much, but he wouldn't refuse Baron Adam's kindness, so he nodded to express his acceptance.
After the topic ended, the two started chatting like they were talking at home. After chatting for who knows how long, Baron Adam asked about the training of Knight Krober.
"Now that you have broken through the peak of the trainee knights, what you have to do now is to find a way to break through the formal knights before the war. In this way, maybe you can catch up with this war and win a fiefdom and title for yourself."
Baron Adam is right. In a national-level war, only formal knights can protect themselves. Trainee knights are nothing more than senior cannon fodder.
In every Western Expedition of the Principality, a large number of new nobles rose up, and a large number of old nobles died.
Adam hopes Klober will seize this opportunity.
"Uncle, what you said is quite simple."
Krober smiled helplessly.
He also wanted to break through, but it was difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. He didn't even have a suitable breathing method at hand, so what could he use to break through the formal knights.
Baron Adam seemed unhappy after hearing this.
"What? If I give you a breathing method that suits you now, wouldn't you be able to make a breakthrough in a short time?"
Krober carefully felt the aura and majestic vitality in his body.
"If there is a suitable breathing method, I believe I can break through to the official knight level within a week."
Krober replied firmly.
Hearing this, Baron Adam also smiled.
"Isn't this enough? Come on, take it."
After that, he opened the drawer and threw a book-like object into Krober's hand.
Krober held the book, vaguely having his own guess in his mind, and quickly looked at the cover of the book excitedly.
"Heart of Gold"
"This...this is!"
The surprised Krober quickly looked up at Adam, only to see that Adam was drinking the coffee in his hand and looking at the unbelievable look of Krober.
"What? You can't believe it? Can I give you the intermediate breathing technique inherited from my family?"
Baron Adam's smile was about to turn into laughter, and he seemed to be very happy with Krober's current reaction.
"I know you had a hard time in that poor place in Deepwater Territory, but you have to know that not all noble families are like your stupid father."
In fact, it is true. Most of the nobles are sophisticated egoists, which is beyond reproach.
Klober did not have a clear understanding of his talent and future positioning.
In his eyes, he was just the unpopular second son of a small baron family. Although he had some talents, these talents had not yet been realized, and he was still very weak now.
But in the eyes of the people of the Golden Rose Family, Klober was a rising star in the Principality.
Moreover, from the appearance alone, Klober was almost no different from the direct descendants of the Golden Rose Family. The only difference might be the surname.
Neither the head of the Golden Rose Family nor Baron Klar himself took this issue to heart.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see it at a glance.
After Klober became an adult, whether from the perspective of family affection or material conditions, it was inevitable that he chose the Golden Rose Family.
Only the Golden Rose Family could bring his excellent talents to the extreme.
In addition, the Golden Rose Family was one of the few great nobles in the Principality who cared about family affection.
Kroeber's biological mother, Lilith, is the most beloved daughter of the current Golden Rose Earl Dennis.
The above points add up, which makes Kroeber's importance far more important than he realizes.
"Having said that, although the Golden Heart Breathing Method can be given to you, you must also know the importance of the intermediate breathing method, so you still need to sign a contract with the family."
Kroeber said that he had no opinion on this. He had already made preparations for the worst before coming here, and the current situation is already quite good for him.
"I can sign the contract now, please give me the contract, uncle."
Adam also took out the contract that had been prepared long ago from the drawer and handed over the ink-dipped feather pen together with the contract.
Kroeber didn't even look at it, and directly wrote his name at the signature.
Baron Adam raised his eyebrows.
"Don't you need to see the content of the contract? Aren't you afraid that I will sell you out?"
Kroeber shook his head.
"Since the family believes in me, then I am naturally willing to believe in the family, that's all."
Baron Adam shook his head helplessly and smiled.
"You, you... look carefully, I've told you so many times, there's no need to put on airs in front of me."
Krober had no choice but to pick up the contract on the table and read it carefully.
The content was not much, the general content was that Krober would announce his joining the Golden Rose Family after his coming-of-age ceremony at the age of sixteen and become a member of the Golden Rose Family.
Both the surname and the flag emblem used must be changed to be unique to the Golden Rose Family.
In exchange, Krober had all the treatment of a direct descendant of the Golden Rose Family.
For example, the family's secret intermediate breathing method Golden Heart, or the monthly supply of two bottles of magic potion within the family, and the right to recruit servants and followers from the territory during the war.
(Note: The third right takes effect after becoming a formal knight.)
It can be said that this contract contains the full sincerity of the Golden Rose Family. For Krober, except for his surname, he is almost a member of the Golden Rose Family.
The only request he made was to change his last name to Golden Rose, which sounded much better than Oatmeal. The former represented precious potions and great elves, while the latter was just an ordinary crop elf.
After stating that he had reconfirmed, Krober hand-copied a breathing method of the Golden Heart in Baron Adam's study and returned to his room.
Before leaving, Baron Adam also gave Krober this month's training resources.
In view of Krober's current preparation for a breakthrough to the official knight, Baron Adam decided to replace the original training resources with an equivalent value and added the benefits of two bottles of potions per month specified in the previous contract - a total of three bottles of family-made Golden Water potions were given to Krober.
After getting the potion and the training method, Krober returned to his room without stopping, and after saying hello to Foster and Frank, he immediately entered the training state.
He planned to successfully break through to the official knight within a week and strive to gain greater benefits in the war ahead.
Kroeber sat cross-legged on the bed, with three bottles of golden potions beside him. He planned to get some sleep and get his energy back before preparing for the breakthrough.
"Whether it will work depends on this time."
