That's very badass

Chapter 71 tit for tat
Entering the lord's hall, Viscount Whitnet laughed and walked over.

"Roland, I knew I didn't misunderstand you. I didn't expect you to wipe out the troll in just half a year."

Viscount Whinette's enthusiasm made Roland a little confused. Even though he was wearing armor, Viscount Whinette still hugged him.

Before Roland could speak, he continued, "The Duke of Osborne has already sent me a letter about your visit. He said that you are a nice person and asked me to get along with you."

Viscount Whitnet complained about Duke Osborne's handling. He felt that Duke Osborne's management was obviously too lenient.

He was still very envious of Roland's territory, because it was the nobleman's deep-seated need for land.

"This is something the Duke of Osborne can appreciate. Compared with the bravery of the Whitnet family, I am still far behind."

Viscount Whitnet thought Roland was praising him when he heard it, but later he thought that the Whitnet family took the development of the Forest of Eternal Night as their mission.

However, an outsider was allowed to obtain this land. This person also specifically mentioned the bravery of the Huinet family, obviously knowing about it.

Viscount Whitnet's smiling face has faded, and he said with a very ugly face: "Do you have to do this? Roland."

Seeing that Roland was expressionless and silent, Viscount Whitnet continued: "You are humiliating a family that has been passed down for five generations. Maybe you don't know what it means."

Roland looked at Viscount Whitnet's face, smiled, and then said slowly, "Of course I know what this means, isn't it just a war?"

Listening to Roland speaking appalling words in such a relaxed manner, the guards in the Lord's Hall felt their throats become dry.

Looking at Roland, who was full of plate armor and burly, he couldn't just fight here.Anxiety made their hands holding the hilt of the sword sticky and full of sweat.

"So are you going to declare war on the Whitnet family? You have to know that you are just a quasi-noble without a title."

Facing Viscount Whitnet's question, Roland of course answered in the affirmative: "No, no, how could I declare war on the Whitnet family.

I still have a lot of respect for the Duke of Osborne.

However, about Jeremy Knight coming to instigate Andal against Andal at your behest.

The valiant Whitnet family is not very valiant. "

As for the guard who heard this, he wanted to leave here immediately, and act as if nothing had happened.But obviously, this is just their wishful thinking.

Damn Jeremy, I knew he was unreliable, and Roland already knew about it.

Viscount Whitnet really remembered Roland's repeated provocations deeply in his heart.And he is already planning revenge. He only needs an introduction to make Duke Osborne faceable.

But Roland can't have an accident in Huinet City, he knows this, and Roland also knows this, which is why he is so unscrupulous.

If the Duke of Osborne knew that they would make such a mess, he would never have the idea of ​​letting them talk.Unfortunately, the Duke of Osborne did not expect this.

Regarding this kind of questioning, Viscount Whinette would not admit it. He believed that no matter how stupid Jeremy was, he would not leave any substantive evidence, and he also made a verbal promise at the time.

"For this matter, I don't want to give any explanation, and you came from Osborne City, if there is any evidence, the Duke will definitely reprimand me for this." The more Viscount Whitnet said, the clearer his thinking became. , A smile slowly appeared on his face.

"Obviously not, then I don't have to worry about your malicious slander. My lord has a lot, and of course all of this is because of the Duke of Osborne."

Roland did not make any rebuttals, as he acquiesced to Viscount Whitnet's words.

Then the two seemed to let go of their prejudices and just had an irrelevant awkward chat.Roland, who couldn't stay any longer, said he wanted to leave.

However, Viscount Whitnet invited him to stay and rest for a night before leaving because of the upcoming dinner party.

If the news of his quarrel with Viscount Whitnet reached the ears of Duke Osborne, he must be very disappointed in himself.

At least to maintain the harmony on the surface, so that no one can find any faults, presumably Viscount Whitnet also thinks so.

So he decided to stay for one night, which can be regarded as a face for the Duke.

Looking at Viscount Whitnet who was smiling but not smiling, Roland agreed to his request.

Not long after, someone brought delicate dishes to the long table one after another.

This time, Viscount Whitnet did not invite the knights, otherwise Roland would have wanted to confront Jeremy on the spot. Presumably Viscount Whitnet had considered this point and regarded this banquet as a family feast.

Viscount Whitney introduced his son 'Marico Whitney' to Roland, but it seems that this Marico is very unfriendly to Roland, as can be seen from his silent attitude.

Marico had already heard about what Roland did at the gate of the city, and he didn't have a good look at this person who had made his family lose face.

Although he already knew from his mother that Roland was a quasi-noble, but in his opinion, what kind of territory is called a forest is at best a poor baron, so he looked down on Roland very much.

If it weren't for his father's presence, he even planned to humiliate the former mercenary leader.

Everyone had no interest in chatting with each other, and the banquet ended in a silent atmosphere.

Roland came to the room, looked at the two guards standing at the door, opened the door indifferently, and walked in.

What he didn't expect was that there were visitors tonight, and it was Vicky Whitney.

The two walked in the garden at night.

A head of big wavy golden curly hair shines dazzlingly under the moonlight. She has a snow-white melon-seeded face, her skin is more radiant than snow, her eyes are like a pool of clear water, and the moonlight shines through her dress, outlining her beautiful figure.

I have to admit that Viscount Whitnet really has his reasons for wanting to 'sell her daughter for a good price'.

Roland didn't know what Miss Vicky meant, but he really couldn't hate Vicky.

And no matter how you look at the conspiracy, it will not have anything to do with her, so he accepted Miss Vicki's invitation.

"For what my father did, I would like to express my deep apologies to you." Vicki lifted her skirts with both hands and bowed her head at the same time.

After a salute, she continued, "Thank you for everything you have done for the Whitnet family."

The whiteness of this ceremony almost dazzled Roland's eyes.

It's just that Vicky's words made him a little confused about what he was talking about. Although he had all guesses in his heart, he didn't confirm it.

"I heard your conversation, which is why I didn't go tonight. I'm sorry for the Whitnet family's apology, I just came to you now."

After speaking, it was another salute.

This made Roland feel very embarrassed, accept it, I feel uncomfortable, don't accept it, it seems that it is not good.

Simply shut up and said nothing.

It's just that Vicky's face was full of disappointment, which made Roland feel a little uncomfortable for some reason.

"Please don't make enemies with the Whitnet family, because... I like you!"

Miss Vicky ran away after saying this.

Now it was Roland's turn to be dumbfounded, what a .
It's just that whether I want to be an enemy or not is not up to me alone, and on the bright side, the Whitnet family has a better chance of winning.
