Mystery: Order and Disorder

Chapter 19: daily life of aristocrats

"Bah."

Grelint opened the delicate gold pocket watch and found that it was already two o'clock in the morning.

"It was not early morning when the party came back."

He muttered in a low voice, stopped tossing and turned off the gas light and fell asleep.

Generally speaking, the nobles of the Loen Kingdom are not all wandering around all day long.

Aristocrats who are not adults usually have to learn etiquette, philosophy, art, horsemanship... and many other things every day.

For example, Miss Audrey now, and Grelint not long ago.

There are roughly two types of adult nobles. One is the eldest son who inherits his father's title and most of his property.

Some of them have nothing to do, while others enter the House of Lords and participate in politics under the arrangement of their elders.

The former is represented by Grelint, and the latter is represented by Hibbert.

The other category is non-eldest sons who have no right of inheritance. Basically, they are not even educated by private tutors, but will enter schools to study.

From "Secondary Preparatory Class", to "Secondary School", and then to "Backlund University", "Tingen University" and other first-class universities to study.

Of course, this is also related to his father's wealth. If his father is rich enough, it is not too difficult to ask for more tutors.

This kind of non-eldest son is not qualified to "idle around and have nothing to do". If they don't fight for their future life, the best of them can only worry about food and clothing, and they are not "decent" at all.

After graduation, most of them will be engaged in relatively good occupations such as "lawyer" and "doctor".

Of course, like Audrey's second brother Alfred Hall, there are not a few who seek promotion in the military and in the Southern Continent.

And the reason why Grelint has nothing to do is because his father died prematurely.

He inherited the title when he was just 20 years old. Although Earl Hall urged him from time to time, he couldn't discipline him directly.

Of course, Grelint, who is addicted to occultism, has no interest in participating in politics, but participates in various occult discussion circles and clubs everywhere.

Of course, some literary and philosophical salons are inevitable, including some banquets.

Some of them were organized by some nobles, while others were organized by newly emerging rich people.

This kind of gathering is actually more social than the banquet itself.

—————————

The next day, Tuesday morning, Grelint, who was obviously sleep-deprived, was woken up early by Hash.

His original plan was to go to the Veterans Club this morning to practice shooting and fighting, and the same in the afternoon, and read some Torah in his spare time.

It's not that he suddenly became diligent, it's just a lack of entertainment.

So he planned the schedule yesterday, and Hash just followed the schedule.

And after Grelint slept late last night, of course there was no reason to stay in bed, which was quite disgraceful for a nobleman.

Tomorrow morning is the trial time for Patton's bodyguard murder case, and Grelint has to make more preparations for this.

Obviously, it is impossible for him to achieve anything in the law in a short period of time.

"Then we can only start from the 'logic' of the opposing defense lawyer."

You still have to try to insert the dialogue and act it out, otherwise it would be a waste of such an excellent opportunity.

Grelint chewed the bread and milk indifferently, thinking about tomorrow's affairs.

Even on the way to the Veterans Club.

Thanks to the coachman's good driving skills, he didn't feel any bumps.

After checking the level of several coaches currently serving in the "Veteran Officers Club", Grelint chose a retired East Balam officer named Colliffe, whose fighting skills were quite excellent.

At the same time, Grelint found that the opponent's shooting level was also quite good, so he decided not to make extra trouble and chose him as the shooting coach.

This is a sturdy man in his forties, but he is not strong. He is slightly taller than Grelint, with a rather contoured face and a darker complexion.

"You seem to want to learn some real fighting and shooting skills?"

He asked very suspiciously, but it made Grelint a little confused.

"Of course, Mr. Cliff."

"Is there anything wrong with this?"

"No, sorry, there's nothing wrong. It's just that I met quite a few young nobles in this club, mostly for 'exercising', 'socializing', 'pursuing beloved girls', etc. come here."

"In an age like this, they don't need to rely on force and guns to be safe."

That's because they probably don't know how dangerous and cruel the struggle in the Beyonder world is. For example, that was the case with the Viscount Grelint before I passed through.

Grelint didn't explain much, just confirmed with the other party that he had obtained the certificate of using all types of weapons, and then started training.

Because his physical fitness could not keep up, and in pursuit of the training effect, he took the initiative to take down the law ring.

Therefore, even with such a low-intensity training, Grelint felt quite exhausted, and Cliff shook his head when he saw it.

In order to divert his attention and not pay too much attention to the physical discomfort, Grelint thought about the following plans.

The first is that after repeated thinking, he decided to give Audrey the "audience" potion formula in advance.

This is due to various considerations. The most important one is that Audrey's own extraordinary ability in the original book actually does not contribute much to the plot, mainly because her wealth drives the capital flow of the Tarot Club.

Therefore, Grelint does not need to worry too much about Audrey's strength affecting too much of the original plot.

The second is to try to build a connection with the gray fog, otherwise it will be funny if you don't have the qualifications to participate.

This is actually very simple. He can learn from Miss Hugh Dilcha and recite the honorable name of Mr. Fool.

This doesn't even require Klein to set up an honorable name!

Because as long as he is released from the "Origin Castle", then "the fool who does not belong to this era, the mysterious ruler above the gray fog, the king of yellow and black who is in charge of good luck." This honorable name can definitely point to him.

"Well, I have to recite it when he just came down. Later, after his mind is clear, if I recite it again, he will definitely notice it."

"With his cautious character, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com will definitely not take the initiative to pull me up without knowing my background."

In fact, Grelint also considered letting Audrey join first, and then recommending him later. But this aspect had no proper reason to put it to Audrey, and at the same time it was too late.

After Zhou Mingrui came down, Old Neil passed away not long after, and Ince Cullo also completed his plan.

If you follow the normal recommendation process, there is a high probability that Grelint has not joined the Tarot Club at that time.

After Klein was tricked by Ince once, he would only be more cautious...

In addition, he also decided to try to borrow the new invention concept book containing the "Dark Emperor" card from the Steam Church through "Sylvie Heisenberg".

Originally, his idea was to wait for Klein to get the cards and then buy the formula from him.

Because he only needs the "recipe" and does not need the person corresponding to the card. On the contrary, if he holds the card, he has to go out of his way to prevent the extraordinary characteristic aggregation effect brought by the opponent.

But he felt that it was too slow!

As long as he knows how to act, even if his talent is average, it will not take more than four or five months for him to digest the "lawyer" and "barbarian" potions.

In other words, when Klein was put down from "Origin Castle", he was at least a "barbarian" who had been digested.

If the formula and materials go well, it is normal for him to become a "bribe".

There is no need to deliberately wait until the end of the year for him to steal the "Dark Emperor" card. It is more meaningful to improve the sequence earlier, whether it is for Grelint himself or for Klein to provide some help.

Of course, the best outcome that Grelint expected was that the Dark Emperor Solitaire could be sealed back after reading it, so that it would be possible to read the Solitaire cards without changing the plot.
