Great Nobleman

Although there are indeed many descendants of nobles in the Human Alliance who have a bad reputation.

There are various affairs with beautiful or handsome servants.

But this kind of thing rarely happens among the nobles above the middle level of the empire.

After all, the higher you are in a high position, the more you need to pay attention to your words, deeds, and external image.

For a small nobleman with no big ambitions, this matter is nothing.

But for the upper-class nobles, or the middle-class nobles who intend to further develop the family.

This can be regarded as a more troublesome scandal.

In the Human Alliance, the virtues that the nobles have been promoting to the outside world are never just words.

Although the nobles are often cunning, cunning, and ruthless.

But such faces usually only appear when interests are entangled and purposes conflict.

When there is nothing to do with interests, they will still show a gentle, kind, abiding by their creed, elegant and generous side.

——Only with this kind of behavior can one be worthy of the title of great noble!

As a new generation of nobles almost appointed by the Kaya Empire, Brand is more concerned about his image.

So, after a brief thought, Brand called Hisari over to give a lesson on nobility.

He told her the values ​​that members of the Holland family should have.

After listening carefully to Brand's words.

Hisari gradually became thoughtful.

Then, she asked curiously:

“I have heard about low-status servants marrying nobles in many places.

Hasn't this happened in the Kaya Empire? "

Hearing this, Brand shook his head and said:

"You should be talking about fictional stories compiled by bards based on various rumors, full of suspense and twists.

Most of these stories deliberately praise divine love and remove many boring but necessary realities. "

After a brief pause, Brand continued to explain:

“In our Kaya Empire, there have been cases in the past where servants eventually succeeded in becoming the wives or husbands of nobles.

However, when the two got married, the servant was no longer a servant.

Rather, he is a strong or powerful person who matches his noble status.

Because status is no longer an obstacle, they can get married. This is the so-called necessary and boring reality. "

Hearing this, Hisari couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and said:

"Then I have no chance? After all, I am now the young master's slave."

"That's not true."

After shaking his head in denial, Brand explained:

“Our Holland family’s management of slaves is still very relaxed.

Many people who had contributed to the family were transformed from slaves into retainers.

There are also some people who choose to leave their families, become free people, and then venture out on their own in the Farnes Continent.

The same goes for you. When you make enough contributions, your identity will also change! "

Hearing this, Hisari's eyes suddenly shone with anticipation.

Brand, on the other hand, drank the tea made by Catherine leisurely and said nothing more.

——He just said that hard work can bring about changes in identity, but he didn’t say anything else!

After using a little trick to make Hisari calm down.

Brand turned his attention to the several portable rune arrays in front of him and began to think about ways to improve and strengthen them.

——Compared to the narrow shield, he still wants to rest in the wide barrier!

As for Hisari.

After thinking about a bright future.

Looking at Catherine who was reading a book beside her, she recalled the "bullying" Catherine had done to her some time ago.

And one time before, Catherine knocked her out with a fist.

She couldn't help but cast a "rebellious" look.

——Forget about that fist, after all, she was not one of our own at that time.

——But now everyone is Master Brand’s slave, and you are just a little stronger and more qualified than me!

——It’s really not certain who will be favored by the young master in the future!

Immediately afterwards, perhaps he got annoyed by being stared at by Hisari.

Or maybe she thinks that Hisari's attitude is not correct enough and she doesn't understand her own status.

After thinking briefly, Catherine took out an envelope and threw it to Xisali, and then said:

"You're not even close yet!"

He looked at the writing on the envelope with a puzzled expression.

Sisali quickly discovered that it was a letter written by Brand's father to Catherine.

Open the envelope, take out the letter paper, and read it carefully,

Hisari's expression changed quickly.

Apart from the gorgeous rhetoric, this letter can be simply summarized as Brand’s elders’ “approval” of Catherine!

——Recognize that Catherine can become Brand’s wife!

Yes!

Catherine has been with Master Brand for a long time and is deeply trusted by him. Her strength and talent are so amazing...

——How could the respected head maid Catherine be just an ordinary servant!

After carefully placing the letter back in the envelope.

Sisali, who recognized the gap in status between them, returned the envelope to Catherine with a "correct attitude", and then sat aside and quietly looked through the knightly inheritance of the Holland family.

At some point in the night, Brand finished studying the rune array and lay on the bed to rest.

Catherine and Hisari also extinguished the lights and lay on the other two beds, one on the left and the other on the right.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, the three of them continued on their way.

As it goes deeper and deeper, the yellow sand of the earth element rolls more and more violently in the area outside the shield.

They gradually had the feeling of walking on the rugged bottom of a sea of ​​yellow sand.

After noticing the surrounding situation, Catherine asked softly:

"Master, the elements outside are getting denser and the ground is a little unstable. Do we need to slow down a little?"

Brand shook his head and said:

"No need to go to such trouble, my talents in wind element and earth element are quite good, and my perception has not dropped too much.

I will choose a relatively stable road to walk on. If it doesn't work, I will use magic to build a road. "

Although Brand said so.

However, something unexpected happened. Catherine and Hisali moved closer to Brand's side and grasped Brand's palm harder.

All the way along the direction of the more violent elements, driving spells and knight secret skills at high speed.

Occasionally using earth magic to build roads, occasionally collecting resources, and occasionally stopping to eat, they did not start to rest until late at night.

When the sun rose again one day, Brand found that they had been buried under the yellow sand.

After wasting some effort and returning to the ground, the three of them continued moving forward.

That evening.

Brand was keenly aware that the ground had become a little moister, and there was gradually an active atmosphere of water element around him.

——They are about to enter the central area of ​​the elemental storm!

Brand then pulled the two of them to a stop.

After carefully testing the shield's endurance, they continued moving forward.

Not long after they walked, there was no longer loose sand under their feet.

Due to the influence of the water element, the gravel of the earth element has become thicker, and it no longer flies easily in the wind in large tracts.

But at the same time, the gravel flying and hitting the shield was much heavier than before.

The small shield of the sublimated portable rune array will be slightly rippled from time to time.
