He actually called himself?!
Sean really didn't expect that he had just arrived at the other party's house today, but he actually wanted to meet him alone.
Looking at Igonia beside her, the little witch probably didn't understand why at this time, and just reminded herself: Go quickly, after all, it is the Earl who is calling you.
As for Alia, she also looked puzzled. Perhaps it was understandable that she had called the two Viscounts Isaac and Bernstein before, but why would she call this remote noble who had just arrived this time? There were obviously so many people present!
"Lord Weiger? Is Lord Weiger from Telemian here?" the man called again.
"I am here!"
Sean's answer made everyone's attention turn to him again, and this time there were many more situations appearing above everyone's heads than before.
"Come with me, the Earl is calling you."
He glanced at Igonia beside him to ask her to wait here, and then followed the butler who came to call him... On the way, he also took a special look at the two Viscounts Isaac and Bernstein who were surrounded by the crowd.
They never said what they heard in there. I guess the adult inside didn't let them tell anyone.
But there are so many people here, and I don't know if they will tell others about it privately...
"This way, Lord Weigel."
The old man leading the way looked to be in his sixties, but he was dressed very elegantly.
Seeing that several viscounts were very respectful to him, he guessed that they must be Earl Hamilton's confidants, and their trust in him even exceeded his trust in his own children!
There was almost no one along the way, not even the guards at the door, and the servants were called to wait on the other side... It was so serious that it was no wonder that the two viscounts didn't dare to speak after they left.
"Come in, the Earl is waiting for you." The old man said as he stood at the door and opened it.
He didn't go in but pointed the way inside to Sean...
It was afternoon now, the time when the sunset was at its most beautiful, but the room was very dark with all the curtains drawn.
The air in the room was filled with the strong smell of ointment!
It smells like burnt plastic, maybe a little better, but still unpleasant.
"Is it someone from the Weiger family?"
In the dim light, Sean saw a bench at the edge of the room near the window. There was a mattress on the bench, and sitting on it was a thin, middle-aged man with a frighteningly pale face.
Although he was middle-aged, his hair was completely white, but his skin was not yet wrinkled due to aging.
Besides, the Hamilton family children outside are not that old, so the Earl Hamilton in front of him should not be too old!
But the flesh on his face is so thin that you can see the bones. It's spring now but he's still wearing thick woolen pajamas for winter.
Sean saw [Weakness!], [Hallucinations!], [Nausea!] and other statuses appearing above the opponent's head. This was the first time he had seen so many negative statuses.
How could it become so miserable!
Watching the other person slowly raise his head, although he might be hallucinating, he was not unconscious yet. At least he could still talk to me normally.
"It's me, Earl Hamilton. What do you want me to do?" Despite seeing the other party's condition, Sean still asked the reason for calling him first.
"I heard you were coming over today."
The reply was very prompt, and it seemed that these conditions had not completely deprived the other party of the ability to communicate.
"Yes."
"I also heard that you were attacked by monsters in the southeast market today?!!" said Earl Hamilton.
When saying this, Sean suddenly looked seriously at the weak earl in front of him... Is this what the other party wanted to ask?
"Yes." Sean answered again affirmatively.
"It seems that Koga City has left a bad impression on you..."
"Thanks to Miss Alia's timely arrival, I was able to escape danger." I guess I should say what I want to say to different people.
Sean looked at the other person. He had gone around in circles but still hadn't returned to his question.
"Are you curious why I asked you to come here?" Only at this time was Earl Hamilton willing to continue talking about the most crucial topic.
"Because I don't think it should be me."
"Why?"
"There are many more capable nobles here, and they do better than me!" Sean said seriously.
However, he felt that there was something wrong. After seeing the other party's condition at this time, Sean understood that the other party might not live long. No matter how the other party was infected with this strange disease, it was not something he could get involved in now.
To entrust an orphan with a task in a time of crisis? To entrust with an important task?
There is no such good thing.
Do you still think you are the protagonist and you will never die no matter how you fight?
If I promise you something now, I might be killed before I can even leave the house!
So Sean subconsciously began to refuse, refusing to be dragged into the quagmire...
"Your answer is just like your father's."
"My father?" Sean looked at the other person.
I'm talking about the previous Baron Weigel.
"More than a decade ago, I wanted to unite all the nobles in the southern region, so I wrote to him and invited him to Koga City. At that time, I promised to prepare a ranch for you in the area where Xiaowan Town is now. But he refused in the same way you are doing now."
Sean didn't know what to say for a moment.
