The Sun King's Evidence

Chapter 193, Duke’s secret conversation

The wizard's tower is known as a symbol of the wizard's status and wealth. It's no wonder that Theresa was obsessed with having a wizard's tower of her own. The sorceress still shares a wizard's tower with her mother.

"Teresa is still obsessed with her wizard tower. I remember that she has always considered whether she can come out and own a wizard tower by herself as the basis for her independence." In the white snow, Ryan held Veronica's hand. , the two of them had just visited the vineyard. The wine expert sent from the Wenford Palace could indeed be called a master. Under his care, the grapes in the vineyard were well maintained. It is expected that next year You can produce high-quality wine.

So the two of them returned to the castle. Veronica was about to choose a place for her wizard tower. The witch had several requirements for her future wizard tower. First, it had to be close to Ryan's castle, and then it had to be hidden enough so that it wouldn't be easily disturbed. The place needs to be relatively easy to access.

As for the magic wind, there are no requirements, because in the main material world, the big whirlpool binds the magic wind, so there is basically no so-called "spiritual gathering place" for immortality in the entire world, and the magic wind is complex and changeable. And there are no rules at all. The wizard's practice relies more on himself.

"...I wonder what kind of medicine Trovik gave you? How come you always remember the good things about her?" Veronica held Ryan's hand and said angrily, Katzenberg and Garth Patton took his people to deal with his own affairs. Anyway, they were back near the castle, and they no longer needed to follow the lord.

So only Ryan and Veronica were left. The witch enjoyed the feeling of holding hands in her free time, but she didn't like Ryan's topic: "Don't you remember the unpleasantness Trovik brought you? Do you have any memories?"

"Veronica~ I'm a Holy Grail Knight. I can't dwell on Theresa's bad points. It's her first time to take risks. Her performance is already qualified. According to you, then Didn't you also leave me with a lot of bad memories? For example, you kicked me down three years ago as I said..." Before Ryan could say anything else, Veronica twisted his arm: "Don't say this! Didn't I apologize later? Now that you have taken control of me, what else do you want to do?"

"Okay, okay, what I want to say is that Teresa also mentioned to me about building a wizard tower." Ryan had to change the topic: "I'm a little strange, you witches in Gloria all like to talk to people. Are you talking about this? After you were my partner for two years, you kept telling me this."

"??!!" Veronica's face turned dark immediately, her eyes moved, and she immediately asked: "You agreed?"

"No, she told me that she wanted to build a new wizard tower and told me that she wanted me to work harder. I said, what does this have to do with me?" Ryan said the conversation at that time without taking it too seriously. Repeated it.

"That's right, she wants to build her wizard tower herself, it has nothing to do with you!" A trace of pride flashed in Veronica's eyes. She took Ryan's arm and said softly: "You are doing the right thing. !”

The witch didn't think so in her heart. She was very proud of herself for taking precautions early.

In fact, there is an unwritten tacit understanding in the Gloria Council, that is, when a witch tells a man that she plans to build a wizard tower, she is actually expressing her favor in a subtle way. Veronica can Sure, that's what Teresa meant.

But what the sorceress didn't expect was that Veronica had vaccinated Ryan early. After the relationship between the two was established, the sorceress often emphasized to him that when the sorceress talks to you about the wizard tower, it's their fault. If you want to borrow your financial resources and power, you must be cautious and vigilant on this issue. Except for me, they are all bad people!

So Ryan didn't realize Theresa's hidden meaning at all.

After looking at a few places, Veronica settled on an open space with a mountain backing about five minutes away from Lane Castle. This open space was close to the Oracle mountains and mountain trails behind Baron Jean. There was a forest next to the open space. , there is a trail directly leading to Lane's Baron Castle, and only a section of city wall can be built to connect it with Lane's Castle.

After deciding on the address of the Wizard Tower, the wind and snow outside were getting bigger and bigger, so Ryan took Veronica back to his castle. The two of them sat around the fire and enjoyed the snow. During their free time in winter, Ryan and Veronica snuggled together, feeling cozy to both of them.

"Dong dong~ Master, the gift you ordered has been sent out." There was a knock on the door of the master bedroom, and the dark elf Olika came in with black tea. Olika put the things on the small table, Ryan Simply hold her hand: "Olica, let's go together."

"Okay." The dark elf blushed and sat down. She took off her black boots and sat next to Ryan. Her long legs in white stockings were very dazzling, contrasting with the witch's beautiful black stockings.

Veronica glanced at the dark elf with interest and said nothing, but there was some hostility in her eyes. Similarly, the dark elf also had some hostility towards the witch, but she didn't say anything.

"Have all the gifts been delivered?" Ryan asked Olika softly.

"Well, they were all delivered. Knight Ernest Hex personally brought the gifts to Winford and delivered them to the hands of His Excellency Francois." Orica replied, and the dark elf's face was very calm.

"Very good." Ryan told several big nobles who were friends with him, such as Boderick, Duke of Bordero, Berhemond, Duke of Bastogne, Francois, Duke of Winford, and Ascot. Marquis Connery, Marquis Surya, and others all sent gifts. Exquisite venison jerky, wood elf jewelry, silk satin, and fruit wine made up Ryan's gift. It was not priceless, but rare.

And just as Ryan thought, on this day, in the same snowy weather, the Principality of Winford welcomed two distinguished guests.

In the majestic and majestic Duke Helenschild Castle, a tall statue of a pure white horse is spreading its wings and is about to fly. The sky in the distance is gloomy, and heavy snow fills the entire Helenschild. On the high tower, a small At the round table, three Brittanian nobles in silk costumes were drinking wine and enjoying the snow. Other than that, there was no one on the tower.

Francois, Duke of Winford, held the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile: "Although the Wood Elf fruit wine sent by Ryan is not as good as our top wine in Winford, it is indeed rare. I haven't drunk this kind of fruit wine in almost ten years." ”

Berhemond, Duke of Bastogne, was also tasting fruit wine. Unlike François, Berhemond sighed: "I don't have as much red wine as you do here. I can only get it occasionally in Coulona." While drinking this kind of fruit wine, this time Ryan sent me ten bottles of wood elf fruit wine, which I plan to treasure."

"Haha, Berhemond, you are lucky. I have just made a batch of the top-quality wine 'Lysalus'. Please take a barrel back with you when you go back." Francois just laughed. , and at the same time said to another person in the tower: "You can also take a bucket with you, our Duke Louis?"

The last person among the three was wearing a red and blue silk nobleman's costume. His cloak was painted with a leaping lion. Different from the normal family coat of arms of the Principality of Connet, the leaping lion Holds the golden chalice in his hand.

In fact, these three dukes are all. Berhemond's red fire dragon holds the Holy Grail in its claws, and Francois's pure white horse also holds the Holy Grail, which illustrates their identities as Knights of the Holy Grail.

"It is indeed rare, but I am no longer a Duke, please don't say that." "The Honest" Louis, the former Duke of Connet, said relaxedly. He looked like he had just unloaded a heavy burden, and he was extremely relaxed. : "Laun has taken over my position. Now I am just an ordinary Grand Knight of the Holy Grail Knights who is about to go to protect the Lady's Cathedral. I stopped by to see Francois when I was passing by. What I didn’t expect was that Bochmund was there too.”

Yes, "upright" Louis is no longer the Duke of Connet. After his legitimate son Raun completed the Holy Grail Trial, he officially put aside all his secular duties and prepared to set off for the Principality of Carcassonne. The Cathedral of the Lady of the Lake. From now on, he will guard the holy place of the Lady of the Lake for the rest of his life.

"Helenhilde will close the mountain with heavy snow soon, so I hurried over to take a look." Bohemond didn't say much. Duke Red Dragon asked Louis: "Are you so trusting of Lao En? He is an excellent person. A knight, but not necessarily a good duke."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I have handed over all the affairs of the principality to him, and everything after that will be decided by him." Speaking of his son, Louis' face did not show happiness that Lawn had completed the road to the Holy Grail. It's just a feeling of relief.

Both François and Berhemond knew that the relationship between Louis and his son Laune was not good.

Lawn was the daughter of Louis's first wife, and he was considered his legitimate son. However, when he was young, this legitimate son lived a bohemian life, and especially liked to go out and have sex. At a young age, he gave birth to an illegitimate son with a lowly biological mother. This incident was cited by Louis. Thinking it was a great shame and humiliation, the illegitimate son was abandoned in the wilderness by Louis' order. Since then, the relationship between Louis and Lawn, the father and son, has become extremely bad.

Fortunately, after Lawn experienced this incident, he also understood the mistakes he made, so he grew up from a bohemian knight errant and gradually became an excellent knight of the kingdom. Then after receiving the inspiration of the lady, , he decided to embark on the path of the Holy Grail and started his own Holy Grail expedition as a mission knight.

Five years later, Raun failed in his first Holy Grail trial and returned to Connet. Compared to a mission knight, the Duke's legitimate son was more like a beggar. During a grand banquet, his clothes Tattered and muddy, he entered the venue and asked for help from his father and the knights of the duchy: a necromancer summoned an army of the undead to overthrow the country.

Under the watch and discussion of countless distinguished guests, Duke Louis felt that he had lost face and was even more angry with his legitimate son. However, his virtue as a Knight of the Holy Grail told him that he should help his son. Perhaps the Kingdom of Knights was indeed facing the undead. threat, so he suppressed his dissatisfaction and asked who among the family knights was willing to follow Laun to fight against the undead.

So when Raun left the Principality of Connet again, he changed into a new set of equipment and took away sixteen family knights who were willing to follow him. There was no news from him until a few days ago when he announced that he had completed the Holy Grail After the trial, he returned to the Principality of Connet alone.

The Holy Grail Knight is also a human being and will have his own likes and dislikes. Although the Fairy of the Lake recognized Laune's virtue and strength and left Louis speechless, Louis still handed over the Duke's affairs to Laune early and left on his own. .

These are secrets among the great nobles of the kingdom. Only Berhemond and Francois, who are Dukes, know about the conflict between Louis and Laune. Since they cannot live in harmony and they are both Knights of the Holy Grail for ladies, Louis simply Leave the principality early to avoid out-of-sight and avoid further conflicts.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Francois shook his head and changed the topic: "What is our king doing recently?"

"Richard? He is really worried about the debt collection from Marienburg." Bohemond shook the goblet proudly: "The contract is written in black and white and witnessed by two gods. He really can't deny it. It is said that he plans to Using Le-Angoulen's tariff as a guarantee, we will temporarily borrow money from Her Majesty Morgiana to pay part of the short-term debt first to meet our urgent needs."

"Haha~" Francois knew why Berhemond was so proud. In this summer's chivalry war, his third son Gabriel was active in the war and captured a lot of money. Berhemond took advantage of this. The opportunity repaid a large amount of Marienburg's debts, and took the opportunity to destroy several bandit dens, and accumulated a lot of wealth.

The same goes for Francois. In this matter, both he and Berhemond must be indebted to Lane.

"Speaking of which, Casfan did something stupid recently. He saw that Lion Malcador was actually able to establish trade relations with the wood elves and earn huge profits, so he sent people into Esso The Loren Forest also wanted to engage in trade with the wood elves. Our Duke Palavon thought he would win the approval of the wood elves if he offered better conditions than Ryan's. But what happened?" Francois laughed: " His trade team and knights were shot into a sieve by the wood elves, leaving only one alive, and then returned to Palaon with the wood elves' reply. What do you think the message sent back by the wood elves was?"

"What is it?" Louis and Bochmond both asked with interest.

"That is……"
