Western Fantasy: I can write unlimited entries

Ta-ta.

Clang.

From the woods came the sound of horse hooves trampling the ground and wheels rolling. The guarding knights sat on their horses with solemn expressions on their faces.

Even Joseph, who was driving, looked serious, not as relaxed as before.

Inside the carriage.

Veronica's eyes secretly glanced at Ron who was in deep thought from time to time. Before, she couldn't help but lift the curtain and witness what happened. Now she recalled Ron's domineering and decisive scene, just like the gods who judge all life and death. Generally, cannot be looked directly at.

Thump thump.

Veronica's heart beat faster. She was thinking of many inspirations in her mind, and she wanted to immediately draw a picture of Ron standing on the carriage overlooking everyone on paper.

Ron was thinking and didn't notice the strange expression on Veronica's face.

He recalled what happened just now. The boss of the other party said that they had been waiting for Ron for two months.

In other words, after the death of the previous baron, Ron had to go to the royal capital in order to inherit the title, and the other party focused on this opportunity to assassinate him.

Going deeper, we speculate that the death of the previous baron may have been caused by the other party!

The next thing is much simpler. As long as he is killed as the only heir, the Arnold territory will become an ownerless land. The fiefdom will be taken back by King Carlo's royal family and rewarded to the meritorious officials again.

Um?

It seems that the people behind the scenes are the Carlo royal family?

Ron shook his head and quickly overturned this guess. Most of Arnold's territory is in the Black Valley Forest, bordering the Alexander Empire. It is a hot potato. It is dispensable to the Carlo Kingdom. It is not worth the risk of exposure for the royal family to assassinate him.

Once exposed, the Carlo royal family will have no prestige at all, shaking the loyalty of the other lords of the kingdom.

By that time, the kingdom was in turmoil and there was a risk of annihilation.

If I die in this assassination and the territory is taken back by the royal family, who is most likely to take over the territory?

This doubt appeared in Ron's mind, and he was the first to rule out Viscount Gordon.

Because according to his understanding, the Gordon Viscounty did not have the strength and economy to monopolize two territories.

Although it is very powerful compared to the Arnold Territory, among the upper-class nobles of the Carlo Kingdom, it can only be regarded as a small noble in a remote place.

If the person behind the scenes is really Viscount Gordon, the correct approach is to send someone to pretend to be the illegitimate son of the previous baron as usual. After the illegitimate son is legitimate and can inherit the title, then assassinate Ron and support an obedient puppet to take over. At that time, the mines in Arnold territory The field resources are all his.

But to assassinate him now is like killing a chicken to keep warm, and nothing will be gained.

Thinking of this, Ron gradually calmed down.

The reasons behind this assassination are complicated and confusing. Ron does not think that the other party is desperate. It may be because even if he kills him, he can obtain the ownership of Arnold's territory.

Are there such nobles in the Kingdom of Carlo?

Ron felt that this trip to the capital would not be so peaceful, but he was not afraid. Now he had a big killer weapon in his hand. Anyone who dared to come would be killed!

Thinking about it now, if it weren't for my desire for stability, I would have been ripped off as soon as I left the house after staying in the mansion for two months and swiping out a few items.

Ron was still frightened, and he rubbed the red diamond ring on his index finger with his hand before he felt calm.

Although this red diamond ring looks tacky, it is an offensive item with a purple entry!

Open the item card.

[Ring (white)]

【picture】

[Entry 1: Light Cyclops (Purple)]

[Light Energy Cyclops (Purple): Gather light energy to issue a devastating blow, which can be activated as long as there is light]

This entry embodies a simple and crude way.

Ron couldn't think of anything that could check it. It could be used during the day and at night. Needless to say, there was moonlight at night. Even in the dark, can't it still light a fire?

I hold a torch in one hand and a Cyclops ring in the other. May I ask you how to deal with this?

Answer: Blow out your torch!

In short, with this ring in hand, Ron has the ability to stand on his own feet. But he didn't expand and do something irrational.

Ron withdrew from his thinking state. Although Viscount Gordon's suspicion was reduced, it was still speculation and he still had to go there to verify it.

Only then did he notice that something seemed wrong with Veronica, and asked, "What's wrong with you? Where are you injured?"

Veronica's body trembled, she shook her head repeatedly and said, "Thank you Lord for your concern, I'm fine."

Ron's eyes narrowed slightly, and he reached out to Veronica's forehead. The other party didn't dare to avoid it when she noticed it.

The next moment, Veronica's character card appeared, Ron's expression changed, and a new change appeared in the favorability column.

[Favorability: 75 (worship)]

Her favorability has increased by 5 points, and her feelings towards Ron have changed from 'confidant' to 'admiration'. You must know that before today, Veronica's favorability was only below 65, among the maid's favorability. at a lower level.

It only took half a day to add more than 10 points! This is the fastest improvement in favorability Ron has ever seen.

He retracted his hand with a normal expression and said calmly: "It's good that he wasn't hurt."

The carriage moved quickly, and with the knights always on guard, the group quickly entered the Gordon Viscounty, where they felt much safer.

Enter a village.

Harvey, one of the six knights, asked Thomas: "Shall we go directly to Viscount Gordon next?"

Thomas nodded, "This is the purpose of our coming. He takes into account the laws of the kingdom, so he can only send people to assassinate the lord. Although we can't do anything to him, we still want him to give an explanation."

"We can't produce evidence, and Viscount Gordon won't admit it." Harvey shook his head.

Thomas fell silent.

Malcolm suddenly came up and whispered: "Do you think the lord will kill Viscount Gordon as soon as we meet?"

Because of his superb swordsmanship, he was also in the accompanying team.

As soon as these words came out, the knights looked at me and I looked a little unsure. If it were an ordinary noble, they would have some scruples and would not dare to be openly hostile to the other lord, unless there was an irreconcilable conflict. Even then, they would only report to the king and apply for a territorial war.

This kind of thing, such as directly killing each other when meeting, has never happened in the history of Carlo Kingdom.

"Sig, why don't you speak?"

Thomas noticed that something was not right with Sig. Normally, he would definitely say a word or two on this topic, but after meeting the Black Crow group, he became taciturn and did not say a word.

Sig smiled and said, "It's nothing, I'm listening."

The others watched and noticed something happened, so they continued on their way in silence.

Soon, the group of people arrived in front of Viscount Gordon's mansion and were stopped by the knight at the door.

Thomas wanted to make the other party look bad, but Ron's voice came from the carriage, "Be nice, we are here as guests."

Everyone was stunned. What did the Lord mean by this move?

In the eyes of the gatekeeper knight, Thomas's face seemed to be changing, from angry at the beginning to a hypocritical face that was smiling but not smiling.

"Sir, please inform Lord Viscount Gordon that Baron Arnold is here to visit." After Thomas finished speaking, the flesh on his face was squeezed into a ball, and the smile he tried to make was terrifying.

The knight guarding the door stared at him cautiously, and then told his companions, "I'll go find the Viscount. You watch them."

A knight entered the mansion to look for the viscount, and came out not long after, saying: "The viscount said he welcomes Baron Arnold, please come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ron stepped out of the carriage, looked at the house that was larger than his own mansion, and said calmly: "Lead the way."

Led by an attendant, Ron and others went all the way to the reception hall and met a tall, middle-aged man with an energetic look.

Thomas and others began to get nervous, and they all thought: Will the lord take action?

The middle-aged man is Viscount Gordon—Aserik Gordon.

"Nephew Ron, aren't you supposed to go to the royal capital to hold a knighthood ceremony? Why do you have time to come to my uncle? Could it be that it's over already?" Viscount Gordon strode over with a warm smile on his face.

Facing Viscount Gordon's sudden enthusiasm, everyone including Ron was stunned.

"No, I'm about to go. This visit is unexpected and I didn't hand over the letter in advance. It's really rude. Please forgive me, Lord Viscount Gordon." Ron was going to be polite first, and he didn't understand the other party's attitude clearly.

There is a special set of rules and procedures for visiting each other between nobles.

First, you must submit a letter of visit a few days in advance. If the other party agrees, a welcome letter will be written in reply.

A sudden visit like Ron's would be criticized by other nobles for not having aristocratic cultivation.

"You don't have to be biologically related to your nephew. Your father and I are old, so feel free to call me uncle. Our territory is far away from the royal capital and there aren't that many rules. You can come whenever you want without writing a letter."

Viscount Gordon said with a smile. He paused and then said: "I haven't gone yet. Counting the days, it should be almost the deadline. Nephew, you have to hurry up. The knighting ceremony is an important event and cannot be taken lightly. "

"Yes, I know."

Ron had been observing Viscount Gordon's expression and found nothing wrong. He looked completely close to his elders.

Without hesitation, he raised his hand and made a handshake gesture, and said: "Thank you, Lord Viscount, for your concern. This sudden visit was due to an accident on the road. It happened suddenly and I didn't prepare a gift. Please don't blame me."

Viscount Gordon was stunned for a moment, then smiled and stretched out his hand to hold Ron's, "It's great that my nephew can come. There is no need to bring any gifts. However, you said something unexpected. Did something happen?"

At this time, Ron's eyes focused on the transparent character card.

[Silver Two Stars]

【Aserik Gordon】

[Favorability: 67 (concern)]

[Entry 1: Water Magic Affinity (White)]

[Entry 2: Many children, many blessings (green)]

——

There was a lot of information revealed on the character card, and Ron didn't have time to read it all. Viscount Gordon's favorability score for him was as high as 67, and it was still a caring relationship. Ron was glad that he was not impulsive.

For a person like Viscount Gordon, the favorability rating of 67 is already quite high, and even Ron can't understand it. This can only be attributed to the fact that the previous baron had a bad relationship with Viscount Gordon, and Aiwu and Wuxia were also good to him.

Thinking of this, Ron said: "It's nothing, I just encountered a group of people on the road who wanted to kill me."

"What! Why are these people so arrogant? I will immediately send knights to destroy them!" Viscount Gordon was furious.

At this moment, their hands were still holding each other's hands. Ron was surprised when he noticed that on the character card, the favorability level had increased by 2 points, reaching 69 points.

Ron took back his hand and said comfortingly: "Uncle, don't be angry, the matter has been resolved."

Only then did Viscount Gordon notice the six knights behind him. They were all injured. Seeing that Ron was fine, he nodded happily towards Sig and the others, "Not bad."

The six people in Sig were confused. What were they here for?

"It's not easy for my nephew to come here. Let's stay and rest today. I didn't have a good chat with you at your parents' funeral last time."

Ron nodded slightly, "Just listen to uncle."

"Haha, okay. Go and ask the chef to prepare the banquet according to the highest standards." Viscount Gordon laughed heartily.

——

Because of the "excellent" performance of Sig and others, Viscount Gordon specially invited the best doctors in the territory for them. With the treatment of professional doctors, they can get better faster.

Marvin, one of the accompanying knights, asked in confusion: "What is going on? Why can't I understand it? Aren't we here to get an explanation?"

Thomas stared and said angrily: "What do you think I'm doing, how do I know?"

As experienced as he was, he was in trouble at this time. In my heart, I can only sigh, the circle of nobles is really confusing, whether it is better for him to be a knight.

The other person, Anthony, had a deep expression. He looked around at the crowd and said in a low voice, "I think."

Everyone looked at him and listened.

".There must be a profound meaning to this matter!"

Everyone: "."

Malcolm scolded: "Who doesn't know now that Joseph can see it and want you to talk nonsense here?"

Harvey said dissatisfied: "Don't insult Mr. Joseph. Although he is a driver, he is very skilled."

Thomas: "If you can't speak, don't speak."

Anthony didn't expect that his words would arouse everyone's anger, so he shut his mouth and stopped talking, but Marvin's doubts just now still lingered in their hearts.

"Perhaps we have misunderstood. Viscount Gordon is not the person we are looking for."

Just when everyone fell into silence, someone suddenly spoke, and they all looked at the speaker.

It's Sig.

Thomas frowned, "Mr. Egbert and Captain Abel both said that only Viscount Gordon is the most suspect. If it's not him, then who do you think it would be?"

Sig shook his head, "I don't know, but I know that the lord also thinks that Viscount Gordon is not the one who wants to harm him."

Hearing this, Thomas frowned even more tightly, "What's the reason?"

Everyone's expressions became serious. They were all guardian knights. If they couldn't even tell who the enemy was, guardianship would become a joke.

Immediately afterwards, they heard Sig slowly speak, "A lord who is arrogant will not call someone who wants to harm him uncle."

Everyone fell into deep thought.

In the previous conversation, the lord always called the other party the viscount, only later he changed his name to 'uncle'.

"Perhaps it was then that the lord could judge the result." Sig shook his head, stood up and left.

"Sig, where are you going?"

"Training." Sig didn't look back.

Malcolm wondered: "What's wrong with him? He went to training before his injury healed."

Thomas withdrew his gaze, sighed and said, "It must have been a shock. Let him be alone for a while. People always have to experience setbacks before they can grow, just like me in Zeng Jin."

Hearing this, everyone understood what was going on.
