Heimarian Odyssey Chapter 29: Dialogue
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Knight's Journey!
To ask an aristocratic woman to be a wife, Locke is a little excited about it. Of course the woman is not Christine, but Grace.
Grace was sitting in the room at this time, and she heard Locke's return. Although Locke's plan is not clear to her, she can guess a general idea, because the way Locke looks at her has already seen it in the eyes of many men.
But she couldn't help it. She asked Lafite, that man's strength is not much worse than the old butler before, is he so young that he has the strength of a low-level knight attendant?
Grace is not like Christine who can misread Locke's age. From Locke's voice, Grace can roughly tell that this is a young man of about twenty years old.
Not long after, a soldier brought Locke's lunch. Of course, it is impossible to eat only one chicken for lunch. He had already ordered people to bring the meal, and it was excessive.
Lafite has some skill in cooking, and even made a pot of delicious chicken soup with almost no condiments. Originally, Locke thought she could make roast chicken.
It was still on the stone table in the yard. Locke bit the meatloaf and sipped the soup from the bowl from time to time. "Come and eat together." Locke beckoned to Christine.
"Oh!" The girl Christine was not very polite, leaping over and sitting in Locke's arms. The girl's body fragrance echoed around Locke, and Locke moved her position uncomfortably, but did not refuse. He didn't indulge in this, but thought, is this the charm of strength and power? Locke's heart to become stronger is firmer.
The maid, Lafite, was not as embarrassed to have a meal with the little host, but at Locke's insistence, she couldn't help but sat down with Fanxiang's temptation.
Grace was not hypocritical and sat aside after she came out of the house. It's incredible that the four people are sitting together for dinner like a family.
"You have also practiced vindictiveness." Locke asked Rafi the maid at dinner.
Lafite was silent after listening, seemingly not knowing how to answer. Grace answered for her, "Yes, Lafite has cultivated our family's fighting spirit."
Locke heard something unusual. Could Grace's family have a lot of grudges? The highest nobleman he knew was also Baron Kedozi, and the baron only possessed a grudge practice technique.
Grace went on to say, "As long as you can take us out of this city, there must be a reward..."
"Stop, you are my slaves now, your wealth is mine, so you don't need your generous rewards." Locke knocked on the table and said to the woman who hadn't recognized reality.
Although Lafite also cultivates vindictiveness, it seems that she is only in the same position as his, and her fighting consciousness is extremely poor, and she is incomparable to Locke who was killed from the blood of the corpse mountain. Locke is confident. Rafite can be won with one hand.
Kristin saw the embarrassment of her aunt, and hurriedly came up to complete the game, taking a bite of "brother", and the name of Locke was very crisp. Christine has lived by herself since she was a child, and her parents were in high positions and did not have time to care about her, so she lacked care.
Locke is a strong man who appeared when she was sick and uncomfortable, alone and helpless. Although she was a hostile force, Christine didn’t know so much. She was simply concerned about the security that appeared to her. Brother has a good impression.
Although there was an episode for lunch, it was still very pleasant under Christine's adjustment.
After the meal, Lafite consciously went to clean up the rice bowl, while Grace and Lafite sat in the courtyard watching Locke practice. Locke took out the section of Red Sea Flower from his arms, wrapped his vindictive energy in his hand, crushed it into powder with a pinch of his palm, and began to guide the vindictive energy circulation in his mouth.
How the Red Sea Flower accelerates the condensation of vindictiveness, Locke does not know. I only knew that there was a lot of heat in his belly at this time, but fortunately, Locke had one experience and was not panicked. Silently running the vindictive route, vindictiveness quickly absorbs and grows in operation. When the vindictive energy runs in the hot part of the abdomen, its growth rate is significantly higher than elsewhere.
Two hours later, Locke finished his practice. He could feel that his grudge vortex had increased by a third, but the effect was not as obvious as when he took Red Sea Flower for the first time. Now the grudge vortex is half the size of a soybean, which means that Locke already has half of Uncle Joshak's grudge.
There is almost no bottleneck in the entry-level knight attendant stage. The main cultivation is the total amount of fighting energy. When does the fighting energy vortex reach the size of a thumb, when will it be considered to break through to the low-level knight attendant. No bottleneck does not mean easy promotion.
Many people stay in the entry-level knight attendants for doing nothing in their lives. The reason is that one is unable to persist in practicing for many years, and the other is that one's own qualifications are not suitable for absorbing grudge. People from wild origins like Locke and Yoshak have no way to measure their own aptitude by relying on military merits in exchange for the opportunity to cultivate vindictiveness. They do not need aptitude for life-threatening people, they just need to work hard.
The effect of the Red Sea Flower is reduced, and Locke is already prepared. If you can continue to improve, Master Sauron will not stop at the peak of the entry-level attendant. However, this is also a way to improve. If you have a chance, you still have to ask for Red Sea Flowers like Master Sauron until you can't improve.
At this time, there was already a pain in the body, and Locke began to exercise martial arts. The total amount of his grudge is still too small, it is impossible to rely entirely on it in battle, he still needs his own ability.
One hour later, Locke took a cloth and wiped the sweat from his body. Christine stared at Locke's pectoral muscles without blinking, not knowing what she was thinking, her face blushed. Lafite is still absent-minded.
After wiping off his sweat, Locke took out a gold bracelet from his trouser pocket and threw it to Rafi in a daze. The little maid did not see what it was, and after a rush to catch it, she exclaimed "Where did you find it?"
"Picked up on the ground." Locke's face was not red and heartbeat.
"Thank you. Thank you!" Rafi was extremely excited. "This is the only thing my mother left me."
Locke didn't say anything after hearing it, and seemed to be touched "Don't lose it in the future!" Locke warned.
"Definitely, definitely." Rafi clutched the bracelet tightly for fear of losing it again.
After seeing this scene, Grace looked complicated, "I know you are a good person, can you let us go?" Grace said after pondering for a while.
"I let you go, do you think you can survive in this world?" Locke asked.
Grace is not stupid, she naturally understands that after leaving Locke, even if the three of them can escape from the city, there is no safe place in the war-torn Charlotte, especially the three of them are all woman.
"If you can send us out of the country, to another country..." Grace still insisted.
"Impossible, I am an ordinary squadron captain, without the ability, and you are a Charlo, I am a Faustan, you are now my trophy, I have no obligation to help you." Locke interrupted After Grace's words, turned around and ignored her.
There were tears in Grace's eyes, how could anyone dare to talk to her like this before. "Forget it, aunt, it's fine to follow the big brother." Christine comforted Grace.
Locke still doesn't know the identities of Grace, just as a noble woman. Locke is just a commoner, and he has hardly contacted the nobles, leaving Grace behind, but there is also a bit of darkness in his heart. Locke is quite longing for the nobles.
Franz City eventually became the occupation of Faustine, just like many areas in Charlo. The baron began to summon the remaining soldiers and logistics transport stationed in the town of Giza to the city of Frans, the wealth of the city needs these transport teams to be transported back to the kingdom.
A few days later, Xia Qian came to Frans City, and Locke arranged her in the courtyard. Of course it is them who live in the master bedroom and the three women live in the side room. At first, Xia Qian was slightly hostile to the three women, but after Locke showed that he had no affair with anyone, Xia Qian was relieved.
Henry, the logistics businessman, also came to visit Locke. Locke's soldiers handed over half of the seizures to him. Henry made a small payment this time. He also brought the leader of the town by the way, which is the respect of Xia Qian's ex-husband.
Locke now has about 200 silver coins in his hand, most of which were obtained in this siege. The higher the status, the more he gets, Locke has more and more experience. He planned to ask Henry to lead the line and find a special blacksmith to build him a shield.
Locke's current half-length armor and the squadron leader's long sword given by the baron are indeed suitable for him at this stage, but he still feels that his protection ability is not as good. The injury he received this time was to resist a rolling stone, and the broken shield he picked up was scrapped on the spot.
"Shield? No problem!" Henry patted his belly, "Wrapped me."
"A shield is best." Locke demanded, "You don't need a big shield, the focus is on sturdiness." Similar to a tough battle, a good shield can not only improve self-defense ability, but also smash people. This kind of shield tied to the arm is the best choice.
"Yes, I know a good blacksmith in Peters, you tell me all the requirements, I will solve it." Henry said.
Finally, Henry took the goods and left with the caravan. After each battle, the soldiers would have a short rest, and they, the merchants, had just started to operate. Henry promised Locke would bring his shield in half a month.
