Working Prophet

Fausto took a deep look at Li Yu, and then said to Ilea, "It seems that you have someone you can trust by your side, so I don't have anything to worry about."

"Director Fausto, what do you mean by this?" Miss Rabbit was stunned when she heard this.

"I have served the Arias family for more than 160 years. Now that I am old and my health is not as good as before, I beg Miss Ilea to allow me to retire and return home."

The old man paused, then continued, "Your great-grandfather saved my life in a great battle, and I made an oath to repay his kindness to the best of my ability. After the war ended, I left my hometown and followed him to this land, serving him and his family until today.

"As the steward of this castle, I have been working hard for more than a hundred years and serving the successive heads of the Arias family. I think this should be enough for me to pay off the debt I owed to your great-grandfather.

"The pansies in my hometown are about to bloom. I want to take my family back to have a look while I can still walk."

"What, you plan to leave me when I need you?" Ilea looked in disbelief, "Master Fausto, do you also think that my brother is more suitable to be the lord of the green field than me?

"Oh, by the way, you don't know, Vanessa has already been defeated, she took Blanco and escaped, and there are only two or three confidantes left by her side, they can't make a comeback.

"Because I have already received the favor of my family ancestors, that is, the necklace my father gave me. I awakened the ancient spirit inside. If you don't believe me, I can show it to you..."

The old man interrupted the girl, "My leaving has nothing to do with Mrs. Vanessa and Master Blanco."

"Why is that?" Ilea didn't understand, "Fusto, you have been in this castle since I was born, and you have taken care of everything in an orderly manner. If there is no you and me alone, how can we handle so many things? ?”

"I can stay for one more month so that you can choose a new steward for this castle." Fausto said.

"But I don't want a new manager, I just want you!" Miss Rabbit's eyes were red, "If it's because of what Alfred did to you, I can apologize to you for him."

"Knight Alfred only did what he had to do at the time, and I don't resent him, my lady."

The old man sighed helplessly and looked at Li Yu with half a face.

"Can we have a word in private?"

"Of course." Jude shrugged and walked out of the room first, with Li Yu silently following behind him.

About a quarter of an hour later, Ilea also walked out of it. Her eyes were red and swollen. It looked like she had just cried and was still sniffing.

She closed the door casually, walked straight to Li Yu, and said, "When you entered the door before, you asked me if I had a favorite candidate for a new manager, and you knew that Fausto was leaving, didn't you? "

Li Yu nodded, "You may not want to agree with this statement, but the Teacup Castle was indeed lost in his hands, and he succumbed to the intruders for the safety of his wife and son.

"Although this is human nature, he still chose the latter between justice and family affection. This is also an undoubted fact.

"What's more terrible is that Alfred Knight's behavior this morning is compared with him. With such a stain on his shoulders, he is no longer suitable for the post of Chief Steward of Teacup Castle.

"Otherwise, this castle will be attacked by a strong enemy again in the future. When the people below think of the "surrender to the enemy" before, they will act accordingly. Can't protect here.

"Faustad is a smart man, so as soon as he sees you, he will tell you his wish to retire and return to his hometown. This is the best way. If he doesn't mention it, then I will help him."

Ilea stared at Li Yu for a long time before she said tiredly, "You are right, Fausto really can't stay in this position anymore, but I don't want him to Get out of the green field."

Miss Rabbit explained, "I have never been a lord before, and I have never even taken care of a small village. Although I defeated my stepmother, my head is still a little confused. I don't even know what I should do next. .

"Fausto is just the opposite. He has assisted three heads of the Arias family and has rich experience. He can tell me what to do when."

"It sounds like he is the new head of the Arias family, and you are just a puppet in his hands." Half-face concluded.

"No, that's not the case." Ilea shook her head, "I want to keep him as another advisor to me, giving me advice, just like you, but of course it is still me who has the final say on whether to adopt those suggestions. "

The last half of the girl's sentence was addressed to Li Yu. She didn't know why. It was obviously just a normal request, but when it came out of her mouth, she felt inexplicably guilty.

Families with some strength in the Red Lion Empire will recruit consultants, and some big families generally don't have only one consultant. This is just her legitimate right.

Miss Rabbit comforted herself like this, but then she heard Li Yu say, "I'm not your consultant."

"Don't be so stingy." The girl said, "I will definitely listen to you more when the time comes."

"I'm not your advisor." Li Yu repeated, slightly emphasizing his tone.

"Uh..." Miss Rabbit was a little panicked, like a new wife who was caught having an affair, and stammered, "Then I...can't I just find another consultant?"

"This has nothing to do with whether you find another consultant or not." Li Yu said, "I told you a long time ago that me being your consultant is just a temporary measure. I am just following your previous words and acting for others to see."

"But later on, you also said that you wanted to establish a more long-term and stable relationship with me." The girl's ears perked up anxiously.

"Yes, but I'm not talking about being your adviser."

Ilea recalled it again. Li Yu didn't seem to have said that he would be her consultant at that time. It was just her wishful thinking that Li Yu would continue to stay by her side and give her advice.

"Then what do you want to do, noble? Well, I can make you my knight. By the way, I can also give you land. You help me become the lord of the green field. I originally planned to repay you."

"I may indeed use the land in the future, but the title of knight is not necessary." Li Yu said, "If you really want to repay me, just promise me something."

"whats the matter?"

"Allow me to form a cult in your territory."
