Chapter 5 Captain of the Guard
The next morning, the warm sunshine shone through the window, and Vivian's eyelashes were trembling slightly and about to wake up.
The sleep I slept last night was unprecedentedly sweet, with an extremely soft feeling under my body, and a faint fragrance in the room that she had never experienced before, who had only lived in a dark and damp shack.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Vivian realized something and quickly opened her eyes. She actually forgot that this was the Lord's bedroom.
She quickly sat up and found that she had a brand new wool blanket covered with her body. She quickly lifted the blanket to check her clothes.
Everything was as usual, and Vivian breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next moment, Vivian's eyes became a little dim again. She was the daughter of doom. The lord washed her and took her to the bedroom, but she didn't...
That means that the Lord Lord’s words last night must have been false.
Vivian is not actually afraid of death, she is just worried about her twelve-year-old sister.
She remembered her sister who was abandoned by her cruel father and picked wild vegetables and fruits with her, but she never cried because of hunger. Instead, she kept pretending to laugh and make her happy sister.
"Little sister! It's sister who's sorry for you! You must live well!"
Vivian prayed silently in his heart that if the gods hate him, then let all bad luck come to him, please let his sister live fortunately!
"You're awake!"
Just when Vivian didn't know that it was time to walk out of the bedroom and was still waiting in place, a soft voice came from the door of the bedroom, which was the handsome and kind Lord.
"Lord... Lord!" Vivian hurriedly got off the sofa and knelt on the ground barefoot.
"Get up!" Narant ordered softly, and then said, "Vivian, see who is here!"
"elder sister!"
Just as Vivian was confused, her extremely familiar voice suddenly came from the door.
"Lilia!"
Looking up, a girl in a brand new maid outfit was standing at the entrance of the bedroom, her sister Lilia.
Vivian instantly showed a surprise expression, and she thought she would never see her sister again.
"Sister, Lord Lord said I would come to the castle as a maid in the future! He said he would give me a salary of ten copper coins a day!"
"What? Let you be a maid?"
Vivian couldn't believe it when he heard this. The castle maid was a very noble profession. How could the relatives of the Daughter of Doom become the castle maid?
Vivian couldn't help but look at Narant.
Narant smiled and nodded: "In the future, you will be my guard captain, and your sister will become the maid of the castle. I hope you can serve me more with peace of mind! Vivian, would you?"
"I...I do, thank you Lord Lord..."
Vivian's eyes were slightly red, and she finally knew that the Lord's words last night were true.
"But Lord Lord, I...I can't fight!"
Not to mention the captain of the guards, even ordinary guards need a strong figure in Kong Wu, which makes Vivian feel unsure.
"Ding! System side mission: Help the lucky daughter Vivian understand her abilities!"
"System Reward: Information about the Second Elf!"
"Hmm? There is still such an operation?"
The system actually released the task again.
However, this online mission is a gift for Narant, after all, he was going to let Vivian show her abilities.
But I didn't expect to get the information about the second elf, which made Narante overjoyed.
"Vivian, don't worry about these things. You will know what you have in a while! Let's go, the servants in the castle have already started to eat. Go and eat quickly. After I finish eating, I will officially accept you as the captain of the guard!"
"Yes, Lord Lord!" Vivian replied nervously.
Narant then took Vivi and the others to the first floor and handed it over to Butler Thomas.
In this world, civilians cannot sit on the long table of the nobles in the castle restaurant, otherwise they will be hanged on the charge of despising the nobles, and the nobles must also keep this rule in mind.
Sitting alone on a six-meter-long table, Narant was eating the most hearty breakfast in the Storm Collector, a piece of white bread and a piece of roasted bacon. Just as he was about to finish the meal, the castle servitor brought Captain Queke to the restaurant.
"Is things done?"
Narant looked at Quak, took the white towel handed by the servant and wiped his hands, then he spoke slowly.
"Yes, you have brought all the ten serf youths you need, four of whom have been hunters, and the others are the strongest young people in the territory!"
"Very good!" Nalante nodded.
These ten serf youths were the candidates for Narant to form the second guard team.
The plan to form a second guard team on the first day after coming to the territory, Narant ordered Quak to do it, in order to suppress Anthony.
After all, Anthony also has five guards, so he needs to form another team and gather twenty people to effectively suppress Anthony.
After saying that, Narant picked up a delicate mask on the long table and left the restaurant.
Arriving at the castle vestibule, Vivian had finished her breakfast and was watching Thomas teach Lilia how to become a qualified maid.
"Lord!"
Vivian, who had a faint smile on his lips, immediately restrained his smile and knelt respectfully on the ground when he saw Narant come out.
"Get up, Vivian! Bring this mask with you! From now on, except in the castle, when you go outside the castle, you will always wear this mask!"
This mask was found in the warehouse in the castle and was used by those nobles when they held dance parties.
This castle has experienced four baron nobles, and they all ended up falling into the sand here, leaving behind many trivial objects.
No one has any idea about these unworthy things. After all, everyone is worried that the objects in the castle will be infested with bad luck, and in the end it happened to be cheaper.
"Yes, Lord Lord!"
Vivian also knew that if she walked out of the castle, she would definitely scare everyone who knew her. After taking the mask, she would wear it obediently on her face.
"Hiss, no wonder the nobles all like this tone!"
When Vivian brought the mask, Nalante was amazed.
The mask is very delicate and only covers the eyes and is made of hollowed-out copper pieces.
The hollow pattern of the mask is beautiful, not only does it not be stuffy when worn, but it looks extremely luxurious. With the fair skin of Vivian's serfs, it is graceful and a little wild. This is an image wandering between temptation and dignity, and the heartbeat is playing...
...
"I've seen Lord Lord!"
Outside the castle, ten ragged young men, aged 18 or 19, knelt on the ground and greeted loudly.
The uncontrollable joy could be seen from their faces.
The Lord's direct guard can be said to be the most glorious profession in the territory. It not only has a generous reward and a high status, but also can follow the Lord.
Being selected by Quick is as lucky as winning the lottery jackpot in their previous life.
"Do you all know what you are going to do!"
"I understand! Lord Lord!"
"Very good! Then I announce that from now on you will officially become my subordinates of Narant Berwick, the guards of the Storm Leader!"
"Thank you Lord! I swear to be loyal to Lord Lord!"
Hearing Narant's words, all the young men were instantly excited and used all their strength to issue a pledge of allegiance.
From now on, they have sworn allegiance to Narant, which means they have the qualification to be free from the status of serfs.
If they are lucky enough, have enough military achievements and have strong abilities, they will have the opportunity to become civilians and even be rewarded with a piece of arable land.
Although not a few of the 100 people can do this, at least they have hope, which is why the guards under the little noble are so loyal.
"Very good, then let's meet your captain!"
"Vivian! Come here!"
Wow!
When Narant's words fell, everyone at the entrance of the castle was in an uproar.
