Comprehensive comic: Starting from jobless reincarnation
Chapter 237 Philip’s Ambition (4k)
Standing under the sun for a long time, looking at the towering city wall, Roja stepped forward.
As usual, the mercenary checked Roja's package without saying anything. There was nothing ulterior in the package, so he handed it over to the other party for search.
The mercenaries were two young men. They opened the package and took a look. They found that they were just ordinary clothes. They nodded and were ready to let them go.
The moment he raised his eyes and saw the young man, his expression froze.
"Magic Swordsman Roya?"
The guard on the side slapped the guard hard on the head and shouted with dissatisfaction: "Don't you have eyes? How can you be so rude to my noble Demon Swordsman?"
After speaking, he secretly looked at Roja. Although the soldier loudly scolded his reckless partner, he was actually covering up.
Little people naturally have their own way of survival, and there are many rules and regulations.
Roja hadn't reacted yet, but then he suddenly remembered what he had done not long ago, and couldn't help but smile. The soldier in front of him was indeed interesting, but Roja didn't feel much concern.
There are two kinds of people in this world who are respected by others.
One is a person who is particularly powerful, and the other is a person with high authority.
Both types of people have their own arrogance, and not everyone will queue up and wait for a body search like Roja.
Some strong men or nobles are very arrogant, and doing so is undoubtedly equivalent to giving them a slap in the face.
So many times, when faced with those famous adventurers or nobles who ran out to play from above, the guards would be put directly in.
The people who queue up for inspection when entering the city are more targeted at the merchants and ordinary people of Luo Ya.
And those powerful adventurers would almost announce their names very proudly, and then walk directly into the city. The nobles were even more arrogant, and they would just pass by them without even looking at them.
As for these guys, the guards didn't stop them.
Just kidding, how many copper coins do you only have every month? Is this matter worth taking seriously?
So they turned a blind eye and didn't get too entangled in this little matter.
Of course, this situation only applies to normal times. If it were a time of war, it would be another matter.
How is Roja's reputation? Although he only showed a little bit of strength, even this little bit of strength is enough to keep this group of idle adventurers bragging for a whole day.
There are definitely the largest number of adventurers in the world. Those adventurers are very well-informed. They have been bragging in the tavern recently, almost exaggerating Roja's strength.
Roja shrugged and said with a smile: "Then, can I go in?"
Some of the pedestrians behind him looked surprised when they heard Roja's name, and some showed strange expressions.
Ignoring everyone's surprised or strange expressions, Roja picked up the package and walked towards the inner city.
There are all kinds of things on the roadside stalls. Miscellaneous items are placed randomly on the table, with vendors on both sides.
It's autumn, and there are many fruit vendors.
Most of the fruits are of weird varieties. Just by looking at their appearance, you can't tell the similarities between these things and the things in Roya's memory from his previous life.
Although this town is not very prosperous and it is not the capital of a country, it is really lively.
There were many pedestrians coming and going, including some adventurers. Those guys wearing armor and with a long sword hanging across their waists were looking around.
The cat-eared beast girls on the street would catch their gazes and subconsciously avoid them, then hurried away from these guys.
Of course, there are some who are more courageous among them. Those cat girls with animal ears stare back angrily, full of momentum.
This has nothing to do with Roja. Roja only glanced at it for a few times before heading straight towards the palace at the top.
The distance from the bottom of the city to the top is not that far, but it still took Roja about half an hour.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen something familiar, and it’s worth spending a little time on the road.
A familiar noisy voice came to my ears, a rough man hawking, and the day was like usual.
When Roja came to the door with the package, the guard in front of the door took a step forward and blocked Roja.
Just like the scene at the gate of the city wall, the moment they saw Roja, the two servants lowered their heads and leaned over and said: "Master Roja, welcome back."
Roja was a little surprised by the title of servant. He couldn't remember when he became the young master in their mouth.
However, Luo Ya was not bored enough to correct the two people's titles. The young master would be the young master, and he didn't care about the change in title.
Roja nodded and walked directly into the mansion.
When he walked into the door, he saw a familiar scene. According to the memory left in his memory, Roja walked through the corridor and strode towards the living room.
Recalling the memories in my mind, my room was in the upper right corner of the living room. Going up the stairs directly to the next floor was the house I had lived in for a while.
However, when he came to the living room, Roja was noticed by someone.
"You're back, Roya."
The handsome young man sitting on the sofa and leaning lazily on the chair spoke like this.
Roja nodded, thought for a moment, and made an aristocratic salute: "Good morning, Mr. Philip."
It had been a while since I had used the noble ceremony, and Roja felt a little unfamiliar.
Phillip smiled, pointed to the sun which was almost noon, and joked: "Now is not the time to say good morning."
After speaking, he winked at Roja.
Roja was indifferent to Philip's teasing, and did not take up Philip's words. Instead, he asked curiously: "How is Rudeus? He didn't cause trouble with you, did he?"
Phillip shrugged, sat on the sofa and said casually: "Rudi? He should be training at this time."
Luo Ya said lightly "Oh" and prepared to move forward.
"etc."
Philip called Roja, and Roja's movement about to move forward paused slightly, and he looked back at Philip.
"Is there a problem?"
"You haven't been home for so long, don't you want to sit down for a while?"
Philip pointed to the chairs in front of the table.
Roja nodded, picked up the package and sat down where Phillip pointed.
The chair was made of mahogany. Roya couldn't tell what was special about this kind of furniture, but just by looking at the stripes and exquisite workmanship, he knew that it was expensive.
After Roja sat down, Philip called the butler and prepared to make a pot of tea.
As if he thought of something, Philip asked: "What would Roja want to drink? Black tea or something else?"
Luo Ya hesitated and said: "Black tea, of course, put more sugar."
Luo Ya doesn't like drinking black tea, but it seems that he has never seen anything else except black tea in the mansion.
The butler nodded and walked towards the kitchen.
For a moment, only Roja and Phillip were left sitting opposite each other in the living room.
Phillip looked at the boy he hadn't seen for a while, with a strange look in his eyes.
This is a young man who looks more like a noble than any noble, to be precise, both in terms of his appearance and his temperament.
In this world, there are very few people with bright blond hair, but there is no doubt that those royal families with orthodox bloodline all have such beautiful hair color.
However, what really surprised Phillip was not the boy's appearance, but his temperament.
Although he was simply sitting there, and the young man did not deliberately show any aura, Phillip felt inexplicably inferior to him.
Roja didn't speak, and Phillip didn't speak in a hurry. He suppressed some complicated emotions in his heart and slowly tasted the tea in the cup.
The tea in Phillip's cup was also black tea. After taking a few sips slowly, Phillip slowly said, "I heard that you have gained a lot of limelight recently."
Roja glanced at the guy in front of him, but after all he couldn't hold himself back and asked directly: "What do you want to say?"
A smile appeared on Phillip's face, and his brown eyes narrowed slightly. Phillip stopped being secretive and said directly: "What do you think of my daughter?"
Roja's expression became playful, and Roja said directly: "Alice is a good child."
Phillip raised the corners of his mouth with a faint smile and continued to wait for Roja's words.
Roya paused and continued: "If something happens to her, I will feel very sad, so if I can help her, I will help her. What do you think? Mr. Philip."
Phillip's expression remained unchanged and he put down the tea cup with his right hand, still smiling.
"Your father, Paul, should have inherited the mantle of the Graylat family, but don't you feel it's a pity to be deprived of the position of patriarch? That position should have been his, and it will be yours in the future."
Philip began to try to induce Roja.
Roja was unmoved. His golden pupils looked directly at Phillip. Roja said, "This is his decision, and that guy Paul ran out on his own."
"But don't you have any ideas? If we go by common sense, he is the next clan leader. He can have many things, rights, money, everything at his fingertips."
Roja's smile gradually disappeared, and he listened to Phillip's words expressionlessly.
"So what?" Roja suddenly said.
"What do you mean, so what? The Graylat family is the upper-class nobles of the Kingdom of Asra. In the royal capital, the family also has a great say, which is not something this small place can match."
Phillip explained patiently, not paying attention to the impatience in Roja's tone.
At this time, the housekeeper came up and came to the two of them with a pot of brewed black tea.
Phillip sighed, closed his mouth, stretched out his hand to rub his eyebrows, and did not continue to speak.
Pour the brewed black tea into Roya's cup, then scoop out half a spoonful of sugar and put it into the cup.
After all this was done, Phillip said calmly: "Butler, please step aside."
The housekeeper nodded, backed out, and closed the door to the living room.
Roja did not directly take the tea on the table, but tapped the table with his fingers, making a crisp sound.
Philip frowned, as if he was dissatisfied with the behavior of the young man in front of him. Roja glanced at Philip, and finally asked: "Why do you think my father gave up that position?"
Without giving Philip time to answer, Roja said to himself: "I know what my father is like. I'm afraid he chose to run away from home because he couldn't stand the complicated etiquette, right? From your mouth, I only heard the benefits of becoming the so-called head of the family, but Do you really think those benefits are really so-called benefits to me?”
Philip was silent and did not speak.
Roja continued: "We were not from the same world from the beginning. Just as this border fortress is too small for you, this country is too small for me."
"The position of Gray Rat Patriarch is indeed very tempting, but how does it compare to the seven major powers?"
Hearing this, Phillip wanted to mock the young man, but after seeing the young man's half-smiling eyes, he couldn't say any mocking words.
Seven great powers.
How many people in this world can be called the Seven Great Powers?
The seven heroes who stand at the top of the world.
Reality is always crueler than ideals. Heroes are heroes because they have accomplished feats that are unimaginable for ordinary people.
"You mean, can you become the Seven Great Powers?"
Luo Ya smiled and said nothing, but his eyes were filled with unparalleled confidence.
Although Roja still may not be able to defeat the Dragon God, it is hard to say who are under the Dragon God.
Phillip didn't speak anymore, and the hand he stretched out trembled slightly, trying to pick up the tea placed aside. The trembling hand showed the excitement in Phillip's heart.
Yes, Phillip was very excited at this time.
A sword king is enough to give Philip enough confidence.
The arrival of Cyrennus made Philip's political opponents restrained a lot.
Personal force may not be able to solve everything, but when the strength reaches a certain level, it has the confidence to overturn the table.
To become one of the seven great powers, at least one skill needs to reach the legendary god level.
Phillip stood up, looked at the ridiculously handsome man in front of him, and bowed deeply.
"Then, if something happens to us, please protect Alice."
Roja looked at the man in front of him and felt a little funny.
Is Philip the kind of person who takes his daughter seriously?
No, although Philip would give in to Alice on many things, when it came to important matters, he didn't mind sacrificing Alice in exchange for what he wanted.
For example, what he wants to plan at this time.
As Roja said, this border fortress is too narrow for him.
Smart people are always proud, especially smart people like Philip. He is confident that as long as he is given the right, he will be able to display more talents and create more value, instead of being an unknown person in a frontier fortress. Little lord.
