Night Raven Master

Chapter 11 Aristocratic Transactions

Art looked at Miss Alti, the scent of flowers in the carriage was light and unforgettable.

This girl, who looks to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, is dressed in black and red. The top fits tightly and has graceful curves. The skirt on the lower body is wide, light at the top and heavy at the bottom, forming a conical shape.

Platinum hair, eyes like blood rubies, together with a beautiful face, formed a strange charm, and her fair skin with a little paleness gave her a morbid beauty.

This is a popular Gothic clothing among the nobility.

Although in the previous life, the continuous baptism of the Internet made Yate extremely immune, but I still have to admit that this earl's daughter has a very high charm.

As for character?

This Miss Alti is just like the rumors. Compared with other nobles, she is more friendly to others, and Art can also tell that the other party has no malice towards him.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that he does not have enough value to make the other party malicious.

Now he has nothing but the crow on his shoulder and the food and water in his rucksack.

He didn't have any doubts about the very low level of "Dark Night Poetry" that the other party said.

He didn't believe that other nobles hadn't come into contact with this meditation method obtained from a collection of poetry that was easily available on the market.

However, although the wizard who created the "Dark Night Poetry" meditation method, the little nobleman himself has not reached the realm of a formal wizard, and the wizard meditation method he created does not have the following realm.

However, it does not mean that this meditation method has no possibility to continue to extend backwards.

At least, from the perspective of his system, there is.

At least, the profession of [Night Sorcerer] can reach the realm of a formal wizard.

Alti sighed, she originally meant to recruit talents for her father.

There is no comparison between the Kingdom of Allen and the mainland. Glora is a notoriously barren land in the Kingdom of Allen. The small nobles here are lower than other places in terms of quantity and quality. level.

Unlike professionals, wizards will only emerge from nobles, so the noble class essentially represents the wizard class.

The number of wizards is small. Although they have powerful spells that other professions cannot match, the problem of the small number is still difficult to solve.

Even with Earl Gloria, she was the only daughter and a senior who was formerly the second son of a certain earl. There were two wizard apprentices in the entire Earl's Castle.

No matter whether it is an experiment or something else, manpower is needed. Forget about those experimenters, they can barely handle some materials, but they can't do other things.

It was a pleasant surprise for her to meet a wizard who had just awakened psychic power this time.

But alas.
She looked at the boy who was slightly younger than herself, and sighed in her heart.

Although it was a pity, she didn't think too much about it. After all, she was just an outsider. After putting the matter aside, she and Art began to talk.

Half a day later, near dusk, the carriage finally arrived at the Earl's Castle of Gloria.

At dusk, the crimson light passes through the forest and through the dense branches.

Surrounded by many tall thorns and roses, stands an ancient castle. The age of the castle seems to have been a long time ago. The tall gray outer walls are covered with dark green and dark green vines. They are in the castle. Climbing up and down, densely covered the exterior walls, leaving only the windows.

However, there are still some vines getting into the window, which has a somewhat gloomy feeling.

Art looked at the castle in amazement.

In Viscount Castle Clauredo, there is also the feeling of a wizard, but it is not as strong.

But this earl's castle is completely mysterious.

"Okay, here we are." Alti smiled lightly at Yate, then lifted his skirt and got out of the carriage from Yate's side.

A gust of fragrant wind brushed the tip of Art's nose, almost making him sneeze.

Arter, who forcibly held back the sneeze, rubbed his nose, and got out of the carriage.

After getting off the carriage, Art really felt the power of the castle.

When he was in the carriage, he didn't feel that oppressive force, but when he got out of the carriage, he immediately felt a strange force coming from the castle.

Psionic radiation.

A formal wizard, so to speak, is a high-energy creature in itself, exuding power all the time.

At this time, an old man wearing butler clothes came towards the carriage: "Miss Alti, welcome back, the Earl is already waiting in the castle, by the way, Miss Alti, who is this gentleman?"

The butler looked at Art with some doubts.

"This is Yate, who has just become a wizard apprentice." Alti looked at Yate with an aristocratic smile on his face, "Yate, he is the butler of Earl Castle, Avons."

After hearing the words, Butler Avons immediately saluted: "Master Yate, hello."

"Mr. Alphonse." Arte nodded.

Although it is very cumbersome, you still have to do the aristocratic routine, otherwise, it is easy to be labeled as a hat.

At this time, the woman next to him spoke: "Lord Alti, you and Lord Yate should go in quickly, the Earl is waiting."

Art also knew the woman's name, called Di Lite, who was Alti's bodyguard and swordsmanship instructor, a high-ranking swordsman, equal to a high-level apprentice.

"Okay." Alti nodded, then looked at Art, "Let's go in, and I'll introduce you to my father."

The castle approached the night, as if it had just woken up from the silence. In the huge castle hall, flames lit up one after another, and in the gorgeous candlesticks on the wall, flickering candles flickered gently.

Art immediately felt that the Crow Glora on his shoulders slightly contracted his claws, showing nervousness.

His eyes couldn't help looking at those candlesticks.

Noticing his gaze, Alti couldn't help but chuckled: "Those are the lowest-level fire elemental spirits. They are sealed on candlesticks. Whenever needed, they will activate the magic circle to make them light up."

It was only then that Art realized that the reason why the black crow was nervous was sealed on the candlestick. It sounded cruel, but from Alti's tone, it could be heard that such things are very common among wizards .

Art didn't feel it either, he didn't have that much extra sympathy.

Then, in front of the two of them, a maid appeared.

"plz follow me."

An elegant female voice sounded like a nightingale singing, and the maid turned around. Led by such a strange and silent maid, the two came to the dining room.

Warm fireplace, silver tableware.

A middle-aged man was sitting on the main seat, probably Earl Glora, with his eyes closed and meditating, as if he was meditating.

When the two walked in, the middle-aged man opened his eyes: "Is it Alti?"

"Yes." Alti lifted her skirt and gently bent her knees, "Father, I'm back."

Then, the earl looked at Art: "Are you?"

Art hurriedly made a noble salute: "My lord, I am Art Angus Crowley."

"Cloredo?" There was a flash of surprise in the earl's eyes, did Viscount Cloredo lead it?
A few days ago, news came that the position of the viscount had changed.

He looked at Art and took a closer look.

If I remember correctly, this kid named Yate should be 15 years old. At this age, he is only a junior apprentice?
The earl's eyes were a little strange: "Are you here to ask for help?"

As a part of Glora County, Crowridor is also determined by his vassal, Earl Fast Susie Glora.

He is also aware of what happened in Clauredo. Generally speaking, if the current viscount dies and his successor also dies, then the one who inherits the viscount is the offspring of this family, the atomic count. brother.

However, killing one's own brother to rise to power is also an extremely taboo thing in the aristocratic circle.

If Viscount Clauredo died normally or accidentally, it is indeed possible for Art's uncle to succeed.

However, he didn't hide it.

Now that he knows the facts, as a feudal lord, he will not allow such a thing to happen.

It is normal to choose to take back the fief and hand it over to another nobleman.

However, Earl Faster has no brothers, and besides Alti, he has no other heirs, so he can only accept them by himself.

And now, Art appeared.

Art understood what Fast had thought of, and he himself knew about the aristocratic succession system in this world.

However, he is not a management talent, and he is not interested in the territory. He prefers to run around as an adventure player to improve his strength, just like in the game.

Art bowed: "Dear Lord Gloria, I don't want to inherit the territory, I prefer to be a traveling wizard."

"Oh?" Fast was a little surprised, "You want to be a traveling wizard?"

Traveling wizards refer to those wizards who are unwilling to stay in the territory and like to take risks and travel to grow.

In this regard, Fast is not surprised. Many young people are like this, he was also like this when he was young, and now Alti is also like this. There are also many nobles who choose to travel instead of inheriting territories. In fact, they are all the second sons or other nobles without inheritance rights. As the heirs, they choose to travel, which is relatively rare.

Arthur nodded: "I need to experience and grow now, so I don't plan to inherit the territory, but I hope that the rebels can get the punishment they deserve, preferably-death."

Hearing this sentence, Fast also nodded: "The honor of a nobleman cannot be desecrated, Viscount Clauredo, he should not die at the hands of common people."

Art's uncle, the younger brother of the deceased Viscount Clauredo, did not have any title of nobility, not even a title of knight, because he had a grudge with the Viscount, and the manor did not score. Just a commoner.

A commoner killed a nobleman?

This is a provocation to the honor of nobility.

In these few words, the two completed an aristocratic deal—a deal in exchange for a death sentence for a traitor in exchange for inheritance rights.
