Lord: I have a skill talent tree

As the sun fell the next day, the bloody night that lasted for a whole night in Maro City finally came to an end.

That night, both inside and outside the city, there was a river of blood.

According to subsequent statistics, the death toll exceeded 2,700, including women and children.

As for the number of injured, it is impossible to count them.

With the end of the liquidation, it also means the end of the era of a group of nobles in Maro City.

Of course, they don't disappear.

It won't be long before a new group of families will appear and gradually take their place.

The Holy Light Religion became the biggest winner in this liquidation.

Not only were they completely unscathed, they also took over most of the family's property and are now very proud of themselves.

However, they also have headaches.

Those were the members of the Doerric family captured earlier. Since they showed no resistance, the Holy Light Religion found it difficult to deal with them.

Logically speaking, if others are at your mercy, how can it be difficult to deal with it?

This sounds ridiculous, but it is true. The Holy Light Religion also has its concerns.

Generally speaking, if you want to fabricate charges to punish civilians, there is basically no need to consider anything.

But the other party is a noble after all. Unless the facts are conclusive, you must be careful about fabricating charges. After all, the other party still has a family and still has a certain say in the empire.

Of course, if you have to deal with them, it is not impossible, but there must be equivalent benefits.

As far as the Doerric family is concerned, although their family's magic metal industry is pretty good, they are just middlemen and do not own their own minerals.

For this little gain, it is obviously not worth it to have a reputation in the minds of all the nobles as "fabricated charges and robbery of property."

And the Central Church and the Pope will definitely not agree.

This stumped Cardinal Zaccaro and Capudo.

Now it is not true that they are letting people go, and it is not true that they are not letting people go.

Just when they were worried about how to deal with it, things took a turn for the better.

The young and beautiful widow of the patriarch of the Doric family asked to see Bishop Zaccaro.

Zaccaro agreed.

The two chatted alone in Zaccaro's office for nearly an hour.

When the widow went out, her clothes were disheveled and her hair was messy.

Although her image was not very good, she had a slight smile on her face because Zaccaro agreed to let her 10-year-old daughter, now the new patriarch of the Doeric family, travel freely.

And this 10-year-old child, after leaving the gate of the Holy Light Cult, went straight to the Bertner Manor where Ethan was located.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the manor, he knelt down and bowed down, stated his name, and asked to see Ethan.

Ethan didn't want to see her at first, but at this time he happened to be playing with his daughter. When he heard that the person who came was just a little girl, he softened his heart for a moment.

After taking a look at his daughter, who had yet to grow teeth and was giggling non-stop in his arms, he asked someone to bring the little girl in.

When the girl entered the study door, she straightened her wrinkled clothes and messy hair, then patted her face vigorously to make herself appear more energetic, and then slowly walked in the door.

After entering the door, she was not as shameless as Andre of the Tegru family, who knelt down and licked everyone she saw. Instead, she elegantly opened her skirt and gave Ethan a ladylike salute.

"I am Pelinka, the patriarch of the Doeric family. It is an honor to meet you, Your Majesty the Great Sword Master!"

Ethan was very surprised by the little girl's stability and was very satisfied with the other party's behavior.

After all, only those who respect themselves can win the respect of others.

So, Ethan stood up and gave her a gentle courtesy: "I'm Ethan, and it's an honor to meet you. Miss Pelinka! Please sit down!"

Ethan stood up and invited the little girl to sit on the sofa prepared for guests while arranging for tea and snacks to be served to her.

However, the little girl did not sit down, but kept standing, and then looked at the little daughter in Ethan's arms with a smile.

"Thank you very much for the preferential treatment! Your Majesty the Great Sword Master, is this your daughter?"

Speaking of his daughter, Ethan smiled: "Her name is Nicole!"

"She's so cute, so pink!

Actually, I also have a sister, who is two years old this year.

I remember her as a child, just like your daughter, and so cute.

I used to like to hold her and play everywhere.

Once, I took her to ride a rocking horse. I put her on the rocking horse and told her, rock it quickly, rock it quickly!

Guess what?

She seemed to understand what I said, but not completely.

I said shake, but she heard it as bite, so she bit the wooden horse with her mouth. I was shocked at that time! "

"Ha ha……"

Ethan burst out laughing after hearing this.

"It's very interesting! My daughter was like this too, once..."

…

In this way, Ethan and a ten-year-old little girl chatted there for a long time about their daughter.

Of course Ethan knew the little girl's purpose, but as soon as the conversation started, he couldn't control his mouth and kept talking nonsense.

Most of the time, Ethan was there talking, and Pelinka stood there nodding in agreement.

And when Ethan ran out of things to say, Pelinka would take over and tell stories about her sister, choosing only those stories that were similar to Ethan's daughter.

In short, it just keeps talking nonsense, and talking nonsense!

However, Ethan listened with great interest just like her.

Many people may not understand why Pelinka is still talking nonsense when she is so desperate.

But in fact, the more anxious a person is, the less he should show his anxiety, even if your anxiety is known to everyone.

And nonsense itself is an art.

Whether it is talking nonsense or listening to nonsense, it can clearly express a person's attitude.

For example, you will find that there are always some people around you who can make you talk nonstop just by opening their mouths.

Invisibly, the distance between the two people is shortened.

This is the attitude of the person who leads the nonsense. He wants to get closer to you or ease the relationship.

And listening to nonsense is even more powerful.

You will find that when you chat with someone you like, such as your girlfriend in the passionate love period, you will not feel bored when she talks nonsense.

Even if she just calls your name over and over again for no reason, you will respond to her over and over again without getting tired of it.

But if it is a person you don’t like, no matter how interesting the story he tells is, you probably don’t even want to listen to it, and you may even turn around and leave without any hesitation.

Therefore, being willing to listen to others' nonsense and being willing to talk nonsense with others shows your attitude.

Although Pelinka is only ten years old, it is obvious that she has good family education. She has already mastered the skills that many people will never learn or even understand in their entire lives.

And she has understood Ethan's attitude since he was willing to talk nonsense with her.

Therefore, seeing that the time is ripe, she began to express her purpose: "Sir, the Great Sword Saint, my sister is still imprisoned in the prison of the Holy Light Church. She is only two years old and it is impossible for her to make any mistakes. She is innocent!

She is innocent like my family.

This time I came to see you presumptuously, first, I hope you can help us clear our grievances, and second, I hope you can give us a chance to be loyal to you.

If you can help, no matter what the result is, from now on, our Doerrick family will offer you unprincipled loyalty."
