Chapter 65 Facial Pain
Although Master Gervis’s territory is a little run-down, this castle is very majestic.”
Led by the castle guards, the convoy finally arrived at the castle gate. Looking at the towering Viscount Castle in front of him, Na Shen couldn't help but say with envy.
"The Rose Castle is truly majestic."
When he first saw the coastal town, Driss felt a little sympathetic, but when he arrived in front of the huge castle, the sourness in his heart surged up again, especially when Nashen beside him was looking at Gervis's castle with envy.
However, as they had already arrived at the castle gate, Driss did not dare to say anything bad in front of Gervis's men, and could only say something neutral.
However, although Deris said this in a disgusted way, he was still muttering a lot of words in his heart.
"Humph, it's just luck! What's the use of things obtained by women? Only people like me who break through through their own practice and become titled knights will be respected! I have become a bronze knight, and I can strive to make achievements on the battlefield in the future. Maybe I can even get a viscount."
"By the time I go on the battlefield and gain merit, Gervis may not even be a titled knight yet! Haha!"
At the gate of the castle, Deris kept hypnotizing himself so that he could regain the feeling of being the eldest brother.
"Haha, I finally got you here, dear Lord Nashen and my elder brother, thank you for your hard work along the way."
When Nashen and Dris walked into the castle gate, Gervis was already waiting in the vestibule. Two servants quickly came forward, stopped Nashen and Dris's horses, and waited for them to dismount.
"Hey, Master Gervis, you have also broken through to become a bronze knight. When did you break through?" After Nashen and Driss got off their horses, Nashen was extremely surprised to find that Gervis had actually become a titled knight.
"Haha, what luck! What luck! I broke through by chance, and it's only been over a week! Hey, big brother, you broke through too? Congratulations!"
Gervis felt rather embarrassed. It was not uncommon for others to break through to become bronze knights at this age, but the original owner was a weakling in cultivation. According to his original development, even if he had a cultivation space, it would take at least two to three years to break through and become a titled knight. That was why Nashen was so surprised when he discovered that he had made a breakthrough.
"Brother, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Just as Gervis finished answering Nathan, Driss, who had just dismounted from his horse, suddenly had an unpredictable look on his face, turning pale and purple. Gervis thought it was because he was too tired from the journey.
Little did he know that Deris was originally full of joy and wanted to show off in front of him and slap him in the face, but he didn't expect that as soon as he saw Gervis, he was hit by Gervis with a club. He failed to show off and got beaten up instead.
"It's okay, I'm just a little tired from traveling!"
Deris felt a little pain on his face, not physical pain, but mental pain.
This time he felt even more uncomfortable than the last time in Rose Castle. After all, there was an element of luck involved in Gervis being chosen by the Earl last time.
But this time, although Gervis was a weakling in cultivation, he became a Bronze Knight. He was younger than himself and broke through earlier than himself. Driss felt like crying but had no tears. This was a great honor for Gervis.
"Ahem... Master Gervis, I am indeed a little tired from traveling in such a hot day..."
Nashen was old, so of course he knew why Deris looked like that, but since he was in trouble, he had to give Deris a way out as their elder, so he coughed and awkwardly tried to help him out.
"Come on, let's go into the castle and take a rest. This time we'll need Lord Nashen and Brother Deris to help escort us!"
Gervis had no idea of what was going on in Dres's mind. Seeing Dres's listless look, he thought he was tired from the journey, so he patted Dres' shoulder happily and walked into the inner castle gate first.
Gervis brought Nashen and Deris to the restaurant. They had traveled a long way, so Gervis felt it necessary to prepare some delicious food to reward them. After all, they came here for their own business.
"Come, sit here and wait, the food will be here soon!"
Before Nashen and his companions arrived at the castle, Thomas had already asked Jimmy to prepare food. Although it was still a little early for lunch, Gervis, who had eaten some dry food, knew very well what kind of hospitality the two needed.
"Lord Nashen, how is my father doing lately?"
After sitting down, Gervis saw that Driss was not in a good mood, so he started chatting with Nashen.
"Master Gervis, Lord Gandalf is in good health, but he often mentions you, worried that you will suffer here alone."
Since entering the castle, Na Shen has been quite interested in this Viscount Castle and has been looking at it all the time. In this world, the castle is not only a defensive fortress, but also the carrier of the world's highest civilization. Every nobleman is yearning for the castle.
Nobles would spend their entire lives or even several generations building a castle for their own family, because the castle symbolized the glory of their family. The larger the castle and the more exquisite the decoration, the stronger the family was.
"He is a respectable father." Gervis praised him out loud. These words came from the bottom of his heart. Gandalf absolutely loved his children, and he could also feel it after traveling through time.
"Lord Nashen, I wonder how many men my father has sent this time!"
The polite exchanges between the nobles ended and Gervis began to get down to business. It was not that Gervis liked to waste time, but the nobles in this world were all very polite and had to exchange a few pleasantries before speaking. After integrating the memories of the original owner, Gervis had learned these things unknowingly.
There was no one else in the restaurant at the moment. Most of the servants in the castle had gone to the front hall to help, so Nashen glanced around and lowered his voice to say to Gervis: "This time, Lord Gandalf sent a total of fifty soldiers. Ten of them have revealed their identities and are following as guards for the convoy."
"Another forty soldiers are in civilian clothes and are stationed in the convoy as farmers. Their armor and swords are already hidden in the carriages, so when the action starts, there will be forty soldiers to participate."
"Fifty soldiers are coming? That means there will be few soldiers guarding my father's territory?" Gervis was a little surprised. He didn't expect Gandalf to send so many guards to support him.
According to Gervis, the total number of soldiers under his father was only seventy or eighty. Now that so many people have been sent here, I am afraid that there will be no one to take turns patrolling the territory. After all, the population of Gandalf's territory has exceeded tens of thousands, and the garrison force is too small, so problems may easily occur.
"Master Gervis, don't worry. Lord Gandalf's territory is not far from Winterfell, and it is not on the border of the earldom, so there won't be any danger. In addition, there will be ten guards returning with the convoy tomorrow, and they will reach Gandalf's territory in three or four days."
Seeing that Gervis was a little worried, Na Shen quickly explained to Gervis.
