Wizard: I want to be a top student
Chapter 77 Guests
"What? Brother Evan, you have become the Baron of Marichatton and own a territory."
"What? You are the wizard who cut the boatman with the silver blade with bare hands, and you have become the hero of Flying Fish Harbor."
After returning home, Evan told his younger brother and sister the news. Padget and Sean had different reactions, but they were both shocked, and their mouths were wide open.
Evan glared at his brother: "Sean, don't always mention that boatman."
"Yes, Lord Baron."
Sean saluted in a fake manner.
For this sudden news, the two of them were like being hit by a pie. They looked around the Baron's iron scroll again and again in a daze. They didn't dare to touch it, for fear that it would be damaged in the slightest.
Padgett responded: "I'm going to send a message to Dad, Paul, and Beaman to tell them this great news."
Ivan held her back: "I just went to the mercenary group's base and asked Uncle Mickey to send a message for us."
Padgett stared at the Baron's iron scroll and read it again, and asked: "Maybe we can send a message to Grandfather and tell him that our family has also become a baron."
"Let my father handle Grandfather's affairs."
"What do you need me to do?"
"Prepare dinner."
"Yes, I will prepare a sumptuous noble dinner for the Baron."
Seeing Padgett's excitement at this time, Ivan realized that this title was much more important in the hearts of his family than he thought. For Earl Hobson, he not only no longer had resentment for being sent to the island, but also needed to remember a great favor.
Otherwise, he might have a big gap with his family.
The next morning, Aunt Kathy heard a knock on the door. She approached and found a person standing outside the door, pretending to be an old butler from a noble family.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Madam, I'm looking for Lord Baron Marichatton. Is he at home?"
Is Ivan really a noble? Aunt Kathy heard the three siblings talk about it yesterday. As someone who has watched Ivan grow up, she really can't believe it and has been in a state of half-belief and half-doubt.
"Yes, he is. I'll go and call him out."
"Wait, madam. Go and inform him first that Baron Karl's housekeeper is here to visit. After obtaining the permission of Lord Baron, you can take me in. Do you think it's feasible?" David hurriedly called the lady. He didn't laugh at anything, but gave a correction in a semi-negotiating manner.
Aunt Kathy reacted and quickly agreed: "Okay, then you wait."
Ivan didn't expect someone to visit so soon. The first person to come to the door was Baron Karl's housekeeper. The old housekeeper brought a box as a gift.
"Lord Baron, Baron Karl welcomes you to visit the manor at any time."
"I will definitely visit when I have time."
After a while, Ivan sent the old housekeeper out with a friendly attitude.
Baron Carl spent a lot of money this time, sending 150 gold coins as a gift, which is exactly ten times the original test fee, equivalent to the annual income of some small territories. He certainly couldn't treat them coldly when they showed an attitude of apology.
In the following time, people came to visit and send gifts one after another, but the gifts were naturally not as heavy as Baron Carl's.
"Mr. Ivan, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect you to become a brave hero and the honorable Baron Marichaton."
"Mrs. Halaya, welcome to visit."
Even Ivan's language teacher, Mrs. Halaya, came to visit in person. Her smile was brighter than before, her voice was still so warm and pleasant, and she praised him one after another. She was indeed a knowledgeable person.
Mrs. Halaya gave him an ancient book with great collection value as a gift.
When leaving, the lady held his hand tightly, showing her special enthusiasm and reluctance.
"Baron, if you want to continue learning Ferendo or other languages, just send someone to inform me, and I will come to teach you when you are free."
"Thank you for your trouble."
When the carriage left, the smile on Ivan's face faded immediately.
This lady gave him a feeling that as long as she gave a little hint and money, Mrs. Halaya would not mind becoming his mistress.
Or maybe it was just an attitude and means, hoping that he would not care about the previous invitation for the qualification test.
Mrs. Halaya had reminded him to leave quickly, but it was a pity that it was a little late. She was also a caring person, so he didn't plan to care about anything.
Padge couldn't help but remind him: "Brother Ivan, I feel that this lady is not good."
"You are right."
"Brother Ivan, is it tiring to deal with these people?"
Ivan said: "Most people who are related to nobles are very smart, and it is certainly not easy to deal with smart people."
If he was not afraid of ruining the reputation of the Marichatton family, he would have closed the door to refuse visitors. Talking to these smart people always requires a lot of nonsense, and you have to pay attention to your words all the time. It's too much effort.
At noon, Reed and Paul hurried home. Although they didn't cry out, the smiles on their faces never disappeared. This is the long-cherished wish of two generations of fathers and sons of the Marichatton family. Finally, the most important step forward has been taken.
The next day at noon, Biman also returned home to witness this great news.
On a new day, the Marichatton family of six, and the Giant Shield Mercenary Group, rode together to the territory of Sanggu.
"Then is the mission all right?"
Ivan found that both deputy leaders of the Giant Shield Mercenary Group were present, including Dane, a junior knight.
Dane explained: "The captain gave me the task, and I transferred the task to other mercenary groups. Bring the brothers back to cheer for the baron to prevent any blind people from causing trouble."
Receiving a territory is usually not a peaceful thing. Most of the people in the territory are unwilling, because having a lord means paying taxes, and some bad lords will have more excessive demands, and the people in the territory will certainly resist.
In order to come to cheer for the captain's family, there are a total of 26 people in the Giant Shield Mercenary Group. Except for Old Mickey who guards the station, all others came.
Ivan said: "Okay, it's all thanks to you."
Many people expressed politeness. Now no mercenary treats him as a child of the captain's family. After all, the person in front of him is someone who can catch the silver bone ray alive.
Located on the edge of the Black Mist Forest, Sanggu Territory and Black Pine Forest Territory are in the same direction. After leaving Flying Fish Port, they take the same road, and only take another trade route in the last section of the road.
Compared with the two, Sanggu Territory is closer to Flying Fish Port.
More than an hour after noon, a group of people appeared outside Sanggu Territory.
What a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack!
Three mountains intersect to form a triangular area, and this triangular area in the middle is Sanggu Territory.
From the inside of Sanggu Territory, there is a mountain behind, the same slanting mountain on the right and in front, and the famous Black Mist Forest on the left. The three mountains are not too high, and there is a road into Sanggu Territory between the front and left mountains.
In addition to the Black Mist Forest on the left, the other two mountains should be where the mulberry forest is. Looking around, it is difficult to see the green color on the trees now.
Their arrival broke the tranquility of Sanggu Territory. Someone noticed the movement and notified others. Soon, a large number of young and strong people with various weapons surrounded them, nearly a hundred people, and more people watched the excitement from a distance.
Deputy leader Gro stepped forward and shouted, "This is Baron Marichatton, the new Lord of Sanggu."
"Nobles please leave. Sanggu doesn't need a Lord."
"Yes, we don't need a Lord."
The people of the territory had obviously received a notice from the Feiyu Port Administration, otherwise they wouldn't have gathered so many people at once, almost all of them came, and tried to expel the new Lord.
