Afternoon.
Chi Sui was leisurely drinking afternoon tea on the balcony.
To be honest, afternoon tea is not very interesting, but... it is quite cool when it is prepared.
Don’t ask, if you ask, just pretend to be cool on Xianyu.
Ellie looked worried: "Lady..."
She really wanted to ask how the baroness could smile when she only had one gold coin in her hand and was about to set off tomorrow.
Chi Sui shook the black tea in his hand, picked up a piece of greasy sweetness, took a small bite of the three-pound pastry and said, "Shh... This lady wants to be quiet for a while."
Ellie... sighed. She only found out this morning that her family would follow the Baroness to the Wasteland... Oh no, the Wasteland has changed its name now. The palace calls it the Land of Hope.
Ellie's father is an official in the royal city who has been demoted repeatedly.
At this moment, Ellie's father Ole was sitting in a conference room, looking down at the documents in his hands.
Opposite him was a man with a sharp-looking face.
"Ole, after all these years, you've finally made it."
"It is your honor to be the Baroness's steward."
The man's tone was odd, but considering his position in the Cassio Kingdom, there was nothing wrong with what he said.
The earl's steward is not just a steward, but also the highest-ranking administrator in the earl's territory.
In other words, in the territory, the earl comes first and the steward comes second.
But the wasteland is specifically designed to counter lords. Besides, how can a useless lord without any magical elements scare away the undead at night?
Following such a lord and going to such a place is no different from committing suicide.
Ole lowered his eyes, looked at the map in his hand, and said nothing.
He knew very well why he was not welcomed in the royal city.
Because he speaks without mercy, doesn't understand the ways of the world, and doesn't know how to flatter.
Because he publicly said that the king was stingy, he was repeatedly demoted.
But does Ole regret it?
No, he doesn't regret it.
Coming from a poor background, he truly wanted to do something for the country. He wanted to expose the ugliness and darkness, which was bound to offend some people.
"Ole? How about it? Do you agree to join us?"
The man smiled sarcastically. What if he disagreed? The king had already given the order, hadn't he?
Ole looked at the barren land on the map, his eyes gleaming.
This place was too poor and difficult, he thought, he was willing to go, he wanted to change everything.
"I, Ole, am willing to follow the Baroness to the promised land."
Ole raised his head, a hint of a smile on his usually stern face.
The man choked, sneered, threw a parchment scroll to Ole, and turned away.
Chi Sui didn't pay much attention to the fact that Ellie's family of four became his relatives.
Early the next morning.
Chi Sui, wearing the luxurious and heavy baroness's dress, walked towards the gorgeous carriage inside the teleportation magic circle.
Ole, wearing clothes that were washed a little pale but smooth and straight, walked towards Chi Sui.
"My dear lady."
Ole knelt on one knee, his upper body slightly bent, and the five fingers of his right hand wearing white gloves were joined together and placed reverently on his chest.
"I'm your butler, Ole."
Chi Sui lowered his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man with graying but neatly combed hair.
"Well, Ole. Get up."
After knowing that he was Ellie's father and his housekeeper, Chi Sui smiled.
Ole stood up respectfully. Behind him was a young man and a middle-aged fat woman.
The woman is Ole's wife Mary, and the young man is Ole's eldest son, the knight Al in the royal city.
The fat woman Mary gave an uneasy and nervous smile and tugged at the hem of her old-fashioned dress nervously.
When Chi Sui looked over, Al quickly lowered his head, clenched his right fist on his chest, and bowed slightly.
Chi Sui nodded and looked at Fu Mingcheng and Ruan Ruan who came to see him off in the crowd.
Fu Mingcheng's face looked unhappy. Seeing Chi Sui looking at him, he raised his chin stiffly, indicating that the gold coins were in the carriage.
Chi Sui raised the corners of his mouth, lowered his eyes, bent down and entered the carriage.
There was indeed a box in the carriage. When they opened it, they found it was full of gold coins.
Opening the carriage window, Chi Sui smiled at Fu Mingcheng, then looked at the great magician: "Please activate the formation."
The great magician nodded, signaling Ellie and her family of four to enter the teleportation array.
Ruan Ruan glanced at Fu Mingcheng beside her, and a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes.
Fu Mingcheng borrowed money yesterday from a baron he wanted to curry favor with.
1000 gold coins.
Ruan Ruan's face darkened. Why did Fu Mingcheng give Chi Sui gold coins? He even went so far as to lose face and dignity and borrow money from the baron?
Ruan Ruan clenched her fists, and when Fu Mingcheng looked over, her expression was still gentle and sweet.
A flash of golden light passed by, and Chi Sui looked at the complex array pattern that was emitting light, smacking his lips.
Three minutes later, the light curtain surrounding the surroundings disappeared.
Chi Sui saw the endless fields and smelled the fresh...
"vomit……"
Chi Sui quickly closed the window and the carriage door. Her eyes rolled back and her nostrils expanded and contracted: "Ugh..."
What is this smell...
Feeling... familiar yet strange...
Oh, my God! She remembered! It was the smell of poop!
"Ellie~~Who pooped nearby...?"
Chi Sui's stomach cramped.
Ellie said calmly, "Lady, it's normal to have a smell. The entire Cassio Kingdom, except for the royal palace, has the same smell."
