Release that Witch - Chapter 790

[Chapter 780 Edith’s Condition]

“Sister, are you…planning to travel far away?” Cole Kant’s voice came from behind.

Edith continued to arrange the clothes in her hands without turning her head, “It’s not far, just wander around the western border.”

“How many days?” The younger brother walked to her side.

“I don’t know.”

“I didn’t choose a dress, I didn’t wear a corset, I didn’t even wear your favorite corset…” Cole looked at the piles of clothes on the bed, “Isn’t this trip going to visit nobles, attend Dinner or something?”

“The observation skills have improved, but there are some things that need not be said.” Edith glanced at him sideways.

The latter shrank suddenly, “You taught me this.”

“Then let me teach you a little bit more. When facing ladies, you must always be graceful and carefully consider your words. Do you understand?”

“But you are my sister… …”

“If not, you’ve already suffered.”

Cole shuddered, “I, I know.”

“Very well,” Edith shrugged, “how does it feel to work at City Hall? ”

It’s okay… I didn’t reveal my noble status as you said, and I usually just write and record, and there is no difficulty. It’s just that I don’t understand…” The younger brother hesitated, “Why didn’t you arrange me in your department Where?”

After watching the artillery drill last time, Cole Conde finally gave up the idea of returning to Eternal Night City, and the two also moved from the diplomatic building to a spacious house close to the castle, which can be regarded as becoming the city of Neverwinter. official resident.

As an aristocrat who has received traditional education, it is not difficult to find a clerical job in the city hall. With nearly a hundred scholars and attendants transferred by her father from the north, she now has her own staff in the city hall. .

Although these people will not stay here forever, His Majesty will never reject the people of insight sent by the North to learn the new system. She knows how hungry the young king is for talents, and she is willing to provide him with all his strength. For those who live there, there is still only one place in the north.

As long as she keeps changing, she will always be able to occupy a place in His Majesty’s new regime.

“Because it’s not necessary, and it’s easy to make mistakes,” Edith smiled slightly, “My lord manager usually keeps an eye on me, if he transfers you over and asks him to find your fault, no matter if I help or not, he will be in trouble.” Passive. Damage to the honor of the Kant family will also affect His Majesty’s opinion of me.” She paused, “No matter how distant our relationship is, we are still a whole to outsiders. So no matter what you do in the future Everything, you must understand that you represent more than yourself.”

Cole lowered his head, showing a pensive expression.

Edith didn’t know how much he could understand, but she couldn’t help him understand this kind of thing. Even if the fiefdom nobles no longer existed in the new regime, the influence of blood and surname would still last for a long time, and even In the short term it will be even more compelling than before.

Just like after the sun goes down, the moon becomes the brightest celestial body.

After a while, he nodded, “I will pay attention.” The

father’s evaluation of the second son was timid, indecisive, and not good at force, and he was not suitable to be the leader of the family.

Especially the first point, in the era when the lord had to take knights to defend his homeland or go out to plunder at any time, the cowardly behavior style could easily arouse the dissatisfaction of his subordinates.

Edith knew that her father had something to say.

That’s Cole Kant like himself.

If Timothy hadn’t broken the order in the northern region and was eager to support the nobles with no deep roots as allies, the Kant family might still stay in the corner of the northern region, far from where they are today.

That’s why her father placed high hopes on her.

But for Neverwinter, these shortcomings have become irrelevant… On the contrary, to a certain extent, they have become advantages, such as being cautious, unassuming, and quick to learn, all suitable for working in the city hall.

From the moment when a group of civilians took snow powder weapons and conquered the capital in just one day, personal force and courage are no longer important. This is why she insisted on keeping her brother in Neverwinter from the very beginning. .

“By the way, sister,” Cole picked up a long skirt and compared it to himself, “Where are you going? I don’t want to stay in such a big room by myself, it’s boring.”

“At the beginning, but You asked to buy a big house, five hundred gold dragons is not a small amount even to me, but now you think it is too big?” Edith asked coldly.

“No… no, no… I’m satisfied,” Cole was so scared that he almost dropped his clothes on the floor.

“Third brother will come to Neverwinter next summer, and you will have company by then.” She looked at the other party, and unexpectedly found that the skirt covering Cole’s body matched him very well. An interesting thought arose involuntarily, “As for where I’m going, it’s Neverwinter’s secret—it’s not that I can’t tell you, but according to the old rules, you have to pay a certain price.”

Cole hesitated for a moment. He is not unfamiliar with the small game of exchanging information, and he has been teased a lot, but in the end, curiosity still overwhelmed the fear in his heart, “I want to hear.”

Edith raised her mouth, “Western Snow Mountain, Act together with the First Army.”

He was surprised, “Are you talking about the source of the Chishui River? What’s there?”

“Unknown hybrid monsters, or alien enemies, it’s not uncommon to encounter anything,” she said During the meeting, he briefly recounted the information provided by the Taquila survivors, “And we also have a group of tentacled allies. Monsters are really looking forward to monsters.”

“Wait, wait…” Cole opened his mouth wide , stammered, “Aren’t you afraid at all? Your Majesty has actually dealt with monsters. Even a devil won’t grow up like you said!”

“So?” Edith spread her hands indifferently, “Isn’t this a good thing?”

“Good thing?” Cole couldn’t believe his ears, “Sister, are you okay?”

“Huh?”

“No, I mean…”

She sighed, “Do you still remember that we served His Majesty’s purpose?”

“Because of…a higher power?” Cole replied cautiously.

“It’s not accurate enough, but it can’t be wrong.” Edith looked at him with burning eyes, “and the power comes from the vast land and the people, if even the ancients, alien races, and even the devil are on His Majesty’s side, UU Read the book www.sonicmtl.com Doesn’t that mean that the power we can share can also spread beyond human beings?”

Cole gasped, obviously stunned by this statement.

“A small nobleman who manages a village can call out the names of every Humin; but a lord of a town can hardly do this. The more complex the residents in the territory, the bigger the territory… As for the future There has never been a king under the rule of a foreign race. Since the reason for leaving the northern border at the beginning was that the duke’s land was too narrow, why should you worry about this kind of thing now?”

Cole stood where he was and passed It took a long time to come to my senses,

“But…”

“But they are different from us after all, aren’t they?” Edith curled her lips, “As long as His Majesty takes the dominant position, it’s not up to him to deal with it as he wants.” What?”

Cole seemed to feel a chill in the heated room.

“Then it’s your turn to repay the reward,” Beidi Pearl narrowed her eyes slightly, pointing to the long skirt and said word by word, “Put it on and show me.”
