Release that Witch - Chapter 889

[Chapter 877]

“Changed surname? What’s going on?” He frowned.

“Probably because I feel that I can’t support myself alone, so it’s more convenient to merge into another family.” William seemed a little surprised why he cared so much about an inconspicuous little nobleman, “It takes a lot of money to maintain a decent life. , if it is not managed well, the territory will be a drag instead.”

“Is it possible that the other party forced it? For example, to seize the territory or something.”

“This…should be unlikely,” the count pondered. “I have seen them a few times at previous banquets, but I didn’t talk about them in detail. The Glenn who changed his surname and the Sommer family are quite harmonious.” , it doesn’t look like you’ve been forced. If you want to know more, I can call Viscount Dot Somer over now—”

“No need,” Roland interrupted through Nightingale’s whisper, “I’m just asking casually, it’s not something important. However, it seems that the member of the Gulen family didn’t come over this time?” If she Nightingale should have recognized her younger brother Hyde.

“The banquet was invited according to the usual specifications, which was my negligence,” the old city lord stroked his chest slightly apologetically.

The meaning of these words is already obvious. Even if he changes his surname and becomes a branch of the Suomei family, he is still not included in his invitations at ordinary times. Guangcheng is somewhat similar. He values wealth and strength more than titles and titles… But it also shows from the side that the Ge Lan family is indeed on the verge of being forgotten.

One must know that after Nightingale left, Hyde inherited his father’s title of Viscount.

It’s sad enough to get to this point.

Back at the camp, Roland had just pulled up the curtains of the tent when Nightingale took the initiative to explain, “Your Majesty, I am not concerned about Hyde’s affairs. Since I left Silver City, I have no connection with the Glenn family. Please Believe me — I was just, just kind of surprised at the time.”

Seeing the expression “it’s definitely not what you think” on the other person’s face, Roland couldn’t help but want to tease her, but when he thought of Nightingale’s temperament, if she took it seriously and insisted on showing his ambition, it would be his turn. It’s time for him to have a headache.

So he coughed twice, nodded lightly, “I know, you never lie to me about this.”

“You didn’t believe it… No, you didn’t believe it completely!” Nightingale pointed out immediately.

Uh, not good, I still brought a little joking mentality into it, but it was distinguished by her ability.

Roland had no choice but to take a deep breath, get rid of distracting thoughts in his mind, then looked into her eyes and said seriously, “I believe in you.”

This time it was Nightingale’s turn to be uncomfortable. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and her eyes shifted unconsciously, “I’m really just surprised, and it has nothing to do with the person who betrayed me.”

Although Roland wanted to say that it’s only natural to care, but at this time, it’s better to follow her words, “Why are you surprised?”

“The Suomei family used to have a good relationship with my father…” Nightingale whispered, “After my father passed away, they also visited me at old Glenn’s mansion, but after they found out that I was a witch, old Glenn didn’t allow me I met them again. I didn’t expect that Viscount Somer would include Hyde into his clan, this… really surprised me.”

It turns out that Roland, who has been nurtured in this world for many years, immediately understood what she meant. If the relationship between the two families is really so good, they should help her younger brother to revive the family business after the death of old Glenn—this is not the case in the noble story. It is not uncommon for the downcast successor to make a comeback with the help of others, and give him several times the wealth in return, and even make the offspring get married.

Changing the surname of the sole heir is not the case.

This meant that the Gulen family was completely cut off, and the title of Viscount would no longer be passed on.

Roland is now determined to take back all the entrusted powers, so it doesn’t matter whether he is a noble or not, but from the perspective of traditional nobles, this is more serious than a conspiracy to steal money, and it is not at all like what a well-connected family would do thing.

“If you find something strange, you can go and check it out,” Roland sat back at the desk and spread out a stack of parchment—this is a job he must do every time he goes to a place: check the local population and finances Revenue and expenditure situation.

“I’m protected by Sylvie and the Witch of God’s Punishment. It’s absolutely safe if I’m only in the camp. You don’t have to stay by my side all the time.”

Nightingale hesitated for a moment, “But these are all about the Glenn family’s affairs, and have nothing to do with me…”

“Of course your father’s territory can’t be said to be irrelevant,” although it has to be handed over to the state now, he thought to himself, “and the mansion where you lived when you were a child is also on that land. It’s rare to come here once, so don’t worry about it.” If you are hunted down by the church, you should treat it as revisiting your old place.”

Maybe it was the childhood mansion that moved Nightingale’s heart. She was silent for a while before she made a decision, “Then you have to promise me that if you want to leave the camp, you must call me back first. Besides, I’m just going to see One glance and nothing else will do.”

“I know,” Roland smiled and shook his head, now it felt like he was forcing her to go.

However, instead of holding back some of the past, it is better to face it calmly. Only after experiencing it can we truly let go.

Nightingale is still too young and too…a little bit.

*******************

At dawn the next day, Nightingale left the camp and walked along the avenue towards the east of Silverlight City.

The memory of the home is large, in addition to a large two-story house, there is a farmland wide enough to drown the footprints.

UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com The edge of the field is a stream flowing out of the forest, and many crabs can be caught in summer.

Further east, you will encounter a steep ravine. The family often says that there may be a gemstone vein hidden underneath. When she gets married, the largest gemstone in it will be given to her as a dowry.

It was only after leaving Silver City with the Aid Association that Nightingale gradually understood that her own territory was considered the last among the nobles, and if it was placed in other places, it would probably not be much different from the average knight’s collar.

The water source is a small stream, so the area of farmland is bound to be limited. As for the gemstone mine in the ravine, I am afraid it is wishful thinking of the family. Even if there is, there are not enough golden dragons to develop it.

However, when she set foot on this land again after several years, the impression in her memory has not faded in the slightest. Even though it looks a lot smaller, the fields covered with weeds are no longer endless, but her childhood thoughts are for It adds an indescribable freshness.

She couldn’t help but understand what Wendy meant by “getting rid of the nightmares of the past doesn’t mean breaking up with the past”.

When approaching the location of the mansion, Nightingale couldn’t help but startled.

She had thought that this unattended family house would become dilapidated, but she didn’t expect that it not only had a new look, but also expanded several circles on the original basis.

Passing through the courtyard wall, I saw a lot of people gathered inside. They were dressed in simple clothes, and some of them were no different from beggars.

Several servants shuttled among the crowd, handing out bowls of hot porridge to them, and the crowd burst into expressions of gratitude from time to time.

Is this giving out relief food?

She followed people’s gazes to the end of the compound, where a man was standing at the door of the residence, responding to everyone’s thanks with a smile.

Whether in dress or manner, he looked like a well-mannered nobleman.

That man was her former brother.

Hyde Grant.
