"Ha!" Claire breathed out at his lord's seal, and then pressed it hard on the written letter of introduction.
Archmage Hughs, who was standing across the table, looked confused and didn't understand why Claire did this.
"Why are you doing this?"
"Personal habits." Claire shook the stamped letter of introduction and handed it over.
"It's been written. Take this letter to the August Family Sophia Countess's residence and forward this letter to the housekeeper. She should summon you in a few days. Whether you can stay or not depends on your ability." Claire said confidently that Sophia should give him this face.
Xiushi took the letter handed over by Claire and read it roughly. It was a very ordinary letter of introduction, nothing special. After looking at it a few more times, he put the letter of introduction into Spatial Ring and looked at Claire with interest.
Asked: "How did you get on the path of the August Family?"
Claire spread his hands. Since there is no Mental Connection now, he just opened his mouth.
"She was greedy for my body, but I'm the kind of person who feeds on soft food, so I resolutely rejected her. But even though I rejected her, since business cannot be done without righteousness, I still have a level of friendship with her."
Khushi frowned and hesitated for a moment, then took a closer look at Claire's appearance, and actually believed his lies. After all, there was a precedent for Sophia to fall in love with a baron before. At that time, the incident was widely spread in the capital, and even reclusive mages like him had heard of it.
Claire saw that the other party actually believed it, and then continued to pour dirty water on Sophia. Anyway, that bitch was not a good person.
"It's a good thing you didn't kill me. Otherwise, if she found out, she would have to seek revenge from you. At least she would have to send three or four Archmage level mages to hunt you down."
Speaking of this, Claire did not forget to take the vaccination and said, "Oh, by the way! You must not tell this matter to anyone else. Others don't know about it. If it spreads, Sophia might get angry and arrest you."
Khushi nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will rot in my stomach."
"Okay, if you walk slowly I won't send you off." Claire sat on the chair without even making a move to get up.
Xiu Shi didn't care. Anyway, after learning that Claire and Sophia had this status, he might become his boss in the future.
Khushi stood, a black and cold smoke filled his body and instantly enveloped him. When the fog dissipated, his figure disappeared from here.
Claire blinked and looked at it with envy. This is a short-distance transmission method that can only be used at the Archmage level.
After a while, he looked in the direction of Count Grein's Barony. He had already sent Regan out to discuss the handover. After obtaining those minerals, Nafu City would have new impetus to promote its faster development.
The previous Magic Ore made that generation of Viscount Griffin immediately rich. Nafu City also developed and expanded at that time. Later, Magic Ore withered. After it was exhausted, a large number of people moved to other territories, and the Viscounty became lonely within a few years. Now with these few rich mines, although it is not as powerful as Magic Ore, it is enough to put the Viscounty on the right track.
Regan once again took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat on his forehead. He had forgotten how many times he had wiped it along the way. He was suddenly called over by the young master to take charge of such a big matter. He felt a little nervous.
"Regan Administrative Officer, don't be nervous, we are here." Isaac, who was floating in the air, immediately comforted him.
Hant, who was following us, also nodded, "Even if the lord didn't come, they are no match for us now."
Not only Isaac and Hant came with Regan, but all the knights from the viscounty came with them. In Claire's words, they were overwhelming.
Regan put the handkerchief in his arms and explained, "The young master entrusted me with such an important matter, and I'm afraid I'll mess it up."
"It's okay. Claire has already reached a contract with the other party. I'm probably just going through the motions here today."
Regan didn't say anything, just nodded silently, thinking that he should behave like this later so as not to lose his position as a young master.
After more than half an hour, Regan and his party arrived at Count Grein's Barony's main city - Cosi City.
From the appearance, it is not much more spectacular than Nafu City. It is just like the main city of an ordinary earldom. This is also because the previous Griffin Barony produced Magic Ore, so it took several decades for Nafu City to develop and grow into the main city of an earldom. Other viscountries simply do not have this opportunity to be as luxurious.
However, compared to Nafu City, Cosi City has a lot more people flow. From time to time, you can see carriages coming out of the city and caravans entering from outside. It is much more popular than Nafu City.
Regan and others had just arrived at the gate of the city. When the knights responsible for guarding the city saw the familiar figures following Regan, their legs were so frightened that they almost fell down. Kellan These Wolf Riders beat them badly. They saw many of their colleagues die tragically in front of them. If the other party hadn't suddenly retreated at that time, their lives and others would probably not have been saved.
"Quick! Go and report! The knight from the viscounty is coming!"
"No, just go ahead. My legs are too weak and I can't stand up."
"Me too, I can't stand up either."
"Don't look at me, I can't stand up either."
Regan drove the horse forward a few steps, pondered for a moment, and then shouted at the top of his lungs, "I am the political officer sent by Viscount Griffin to negotiate peace! Hurry up and have your people come out to greet you!"
"Fuck!" The soldiers responsible for guarding the city breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out they were here to negotiate peace. They thought they were beaten at the city gate.
But why is the voice of the person shouting so arrogant? Shouldn't the peace talks be peaceful?
Isaac also looked over with a question mark on his face, weren't you quite nervous just now? Why are you so arrogant all of a sudden?
The caravans and residents who were still coming in and out stopped and looked over curiously after hearing the arrogant roar of Regan. The battle between Griffin Barony and Count Grein's Barony lasted for two days, and they still didn't get the news.
After the soldiers guarding the city learned that they had not been attacked, their legs finally stopped shaking and they quickly drove away the caravan that had stopped.
"Let's go! Let's go quickly."
"There's nothing to see, let's go!"
"If you don't leave, you'll have to pay an additional entry fee!"
After being driven away, the people who had stopped finally started moving again, but a trace of curiosity remained in their hearts, and they must inquire if they had the chance.
Inside the Earl's Mansion.
After getting the news, the housekeeper Bill reported the news of Regan's arrival.
Count Grein angrily clenched his fist and angrily hammered the metal seat he was sitting on. The force of the hammer made a dent.
"How arrogant! And he came so quickly and wanted to cut off my territory!"
Seeing that his Earl was so angry, Bill kept silent for fear of getting burned. He unconsciously touched the spot on his heart with his hand. Although the dagger was taken out, he would feel a dull pain every time he saw it.
Count Grein suddenly shouted, "Bill!"
Bill bowed slightly, "Yes! Lord Earl!"
"This matter is left to you to negotiate. Although I signed a contract with him, there is no stipulation on when to give it to him. You can delay the handover as long as you can! I will think of a way to see if I can get it back."
Claire After all, he just sent his own butler over. Green was an earl, and it was impossible for him to personally negotiate peace with a viscount's butler.
Bill pursed his lips, feeling a little unconfident. As a butler, he knew a little bit about the situation of the knights in his territory who were defeated by the other party.
"It's okay, I'll watch from the sidelines, you can just talk." Count Grein said, meaning that he was supporting Bill and telling him not to be afraid.
"As you command, Lord Count!"
