Warm Dragon

Bonfire burning.

The focus of everyone's attention has shifted from Eric to Charles.

Just listen to Russell say calmly: "Charles, my tutor, is also my right-hand man in managing the territory. Although your fighting spirit has slumped and you are unable to fight side by side with me in the snowy fields, your diligent work has solved the worries in the territory. "

There was a pause.

Give Charles and everyone a time to digest.

Then Russell continued: "You can't make meritorious deeds, but you are still my loyal follower and have made great contributions. So tonight, I, Russell Fluorescent Mushroom, also want to share my glory with my follower Charles. "

Finished.

Russell looked at Charles who was shocked, incredulous and in a daze, and could understand the other person's mood at the moment.

He had already revealed his intention to be knighted to Eric, but not to Charles.

And Charles never fantasized about being knighted. His idea was to train his son so that he could continue to follow Russell and get a chance to be knighted.

Because he himself did not meet the conditions for enfeoffment.

Except for the second son of a great noble, if a knight wants to be knighted, he must first become a great knight and contract a fantasy beast.

If you can't even make a contract with a fantasy beast, how can you protect your manor?

Charles never expected that.

Tonight, I should have been disappointed, but I was able to share the glory of Lord Russell just like Eric, the fantasy beast knight, and he was ranked ahead of Grove, Katie and other fantasy beast knights, and became the No. 1 under the command of Baron Thunder Flame. Two Lords.

"Sir!" Charles didn't hesitate at all. The moment Russell's words fell, he knelt on one knee.

Tears could not be suppressed, running down the slightly wrinkled face.

Russell did not pause and said directly: "Charles, from today on, I will grant you the title of Lord, and you will become my loyal Lord, Baron Thunder Flame, and I will grant you the power of manor, serfs and lord."

Charles didn't contract the phantom beast, so Russell couldn't give him the phantom beast.

Buzz!

At this moment, Charles, like Eric, felt like his brain was dizzy due to lack of oxygen, and his eyes were full of little stars twinkling.

Fortunately, he was much more flexible than Eric. He came back to his senses after a slight dizziness. Then he knelt on the ground, kissed the toes of Russell's shoes, then beat his chest heavily and swore an oath: "Charles, swear allegiance to your lord to the death!"

Then he heard the most beautiful cry he had ever heard in his life.

"Lord Charles!"

"Lord Charles!"

"Lord Charles!"

The cheers continued until the barbecue buffet dinner started. The servants were busy grilling, while the knights stood, squatted, or sat on the ground to enjoy the food.

There were only three nobles.

Russell, Eric, Charles, can sit in the chairs and enjoy the meal.

"Lord Eric, come, let's have a drink together!" Charles raised his beer glass and shook it towards Eric.

Both of them were Russell's teachers in the past.

But in the past two years, Eric's status as the Phantom Beast Knight has firmly suppressed him. Now that Charles has finally found his confidence, both he and Eric have become Lords, and the previous situation of no distinction between high and low has resumed.

Eric also rarely kept a straight face, but smiled and clinked glasses with Charles: "Cheers, Lord Charles."

"Oh my God." Charles muttered, "No wonder you don't like to smile. You smile like you want to eat a child."

Eric's smile turned awkward.

Then he drank a large glass of beer in a big gulp. After drinking it, he stopped smiling and returned to his usual dull expression.

After knocking off the smile of his old rival, Charles was in a good mood and went to find someone else to drink with his cup in hand.

Russell sipped the dark beer brewed by the manor.

This is a magic beer.

He has a hop fairy bug and grows one hundred and fifty acres of hops for magic potion. In addition to using it to make magic potions, he also leaves some to brew magic beer, which he can use to entertain drinks at banquets or drink by himself.

"Sir, Charles gives you a drink." After enjoying the title of "Lord" from everyone in the circle, Charles came to Russell with a shy face.

Russell raised his glass and said: "After you become Lord, your job will remain the same. You will still assist my elder brother in opening up the Black Fire Land. When the Black Fire Land becomes self-sufficient, I will plan the estate for you and Eric."

At this stage, Black Fire Land has not even formulated a land plan, so naturally it is not possible to immediately divide the two people's estates.

Charles nodded repeatedly: "Of course, sir, the manor is not in a hurry, not in a hurry."

In fact, he was very anxious and wanted to enjoy the pleasure of being the lord of the manor. However, the facts were here and there was nothing he could do.

Russell swung the wine glass: "Cheers!"

"Cheers, my lord!"

The barbecue buffet dinner lasted for more than an hour. It was difficult for the knights to get drunk with beer, but their full bellies were enough to keep everyone entertained.

After eating and drinking, Russell yawned: "Okay, that's it for tonight. Let's go back and rest as soon as possible."

Then he said hello to the black oil dragon Roselle who was entrenched on the pillar, then rode the unicorn Baoli, piercing the night like lightning. After a while, he returned to the Cigar Courtyard, took a bath, poured some water, and lay down in a comfortable bed. In the big bed.

Started to have sweet dreams.

And this night, many people are destined to have insomnia.

Eric suffered from insomnia. When he returned to his temporary residence, he could not fall asleep despite tossing and turning, so he simply took Kevin, the golden and silver wolfdog with droopy eyelids, and chatted all night long.

"Kevin, I can't believe it. The Lord has made me a lord!" Eric said excitedly.

Kevin rolled his eyelids.

Eric continued, "And from now on, you and I are truly one. My manor is your manor, and we plan the manor together... But we don't know where the manor is now."

Kevin raised his eyes.

Eric sighed again, "I can't believe that Charles was also made a lord by the Lord. The Lord is really a kind and nostalgic person. Following such a Lord, how can I not do my best? I will work harder in the future!"

In this way, Kevin, who was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyelids, listened to Eric's words of "striving" and "gratitude" all night.

Finally, looking at the slightly white sky outside the window, Kevin was speechless and choked in his heart: "The spiritual practice has not made much progress, Eric, you have to find your own reasons!"

On the other side.

Charles also stayed up all night, with two dark circles under his eyes when dawn came.

He spent half of the night fantasizing about the wonderful life of a lord, and the other half thinking about the colorful world.

Before, because Katie was promoted to a fantasy beast knight, he didn't dare to make plans for Catherine.

"But I'm a lord now. Although Catherine can't become a lady of the lord, it's better than living alone." Charles thought with a little pride, "However, my identity is different now, and Catherine seems... not as beautiful as before."

People's hearts are fickle.

When Charles saw Catherine, his eyes lit up, and he felt that Catherine had completely grown up to his aesthetic standards.

But now that he has become a lord, he looks at her again and thinks that Catherine is just average.

"Tsk tsk, forget it. I, Charles, am a lord, how can Catherine easily get him!" Charles rubbed his eyes and used his fighting spirit to slightly dissolve the dark circles under his eyes. "Knights should focus on their careers. It's another beautiful day!"
