Chapter 6 Dinner
Victor gently stroked the parchment scroll on the table and let out a long breath.
This is a registration document for the hereditary territory of Centaur Hills. This document proves that this vast land of more than 12,000 square kilometers in the southwest corner of Centaur Hills is a legal territory recognized by the Kingdom of Cambis and will be protected by the kingdom's army and reported to the Kingdom of Gambis.
The kingdom pays annuities. The lord of this territory is Baron Victor Wimbledon. The territory is hereditary by the baron and his family.
This territory is very large, far exceeding the area of a barony, and even much larger than the average viscounty.
Victor frowned. Although the territory is large, its location is very remote. The territory is close to the Jinshui River in the south and the vast swamp with unknown borders in the west. It is said that this kind of orcs-lizards even live in the swamp.
people.
The entire territory is very far away from the Black Castle, the center of the human-horse territory. If you ride a horse, it would probably take about ten days to go there.
Victor couldn't believe that the York family had developed that land at such a long distance.
Thinking about the hordes of goblins, kobolds, stinking gnolls, and possibly other more terrifying monsters in that wilderness, Victor's scalp went numb.
But Victor has no regrets. Staying away from the struggle for the throne is the most urgent thing. Although the territory is far away, it is more in line with his current expectations.
At that time, recruit a mercenary group and farmers who lost their land due to the war near the Black Castle. Once in the new territory, as long as the castle in the territory develops slowly, safety should be guaranteed.
Thinking of this, Victor couldn't help pinching a money bag made of lizard skin around his waist.
The purse contained 50 purple gold coins issued by the royal family of Cambys. One side of the purple gold coin was engraved with a high mountain, with a sun rising from the top. This pattern represented the divine power of the Lord of Glory, and the other side was engraved with a winged figure.
The eagle represents the imperial power of the Lant Empire. As a subsidiary kingdom of the Lant Empire, the Kingdom of Gambis is not yet qualified to engrave its own emblem on its currency.
The royal family of Cambys promised that every purple gold coin could be exchanged for 1,000 gold soles at the Internal Affairs Office of the royal capital of Cambys. Thinking of the grief-stricken expression on the Earl of York's face when he took out the purple gold coins, Victor felt secretly happy.
.
The knowledge and skills stored in these 50,000 gold soles and x-3 chips are what give Victor the confidence to open up the wilderness.
However, Victor could not control so much how furious Marquis Sophia would be when the news of the territory change reached the royal capital.
There was a sound of light footsteps outside the door. This should be the entourage sent by the Countess to pick him up for the banquet. Victor had just put away the coins and documents when the knock on the door came as expected.
"Your Excellency Baron, I am here to take you to the dinner party on the order of the countess." A clear and sweet voice sounded outside the door.
Victor opened the door and saw the tall and beautiful female guard standing at the door.
"Please lead the way." Victor smiled and signaled to this heroic beauty.
The tall and slender beauty was slightly startled, then turned around in a panic to lead the way.
Victor followed the female guard and saw the beautiful woman in front of him with slender and straight legs, a slim waist and a raised butt. She was swaying as she walked, looking extremely sexy. Victor's eyes couldn't help but linger on the beauty in front of him.
On top of the slender waist and beautiful legs.
After a while, Victor saw that the female guard was walking in an unnatural manner, and when he saw that her earlobes had turned pink, Victor felt a chill in his heart.
With such a keen perception, even if she is not a knight, she is not far away. Fortunately, she is not repulsive to me. Victor is secretly grateful.
Knights, the pinnacle of human power, must be respected even by nobles.
A gorgeous four-wheeled carriage was already waiting on the roadside. Victor and the female guard entered the carriage one after another. The driver shook the reins, and the carriage began to move forward slowly.
"How rude, haven't you asked me the name of this beautiful lady?" Victor looked at the female guard who was still blushing, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.
"My...my name is Nicole." The female guard's face darkened instantly.
In the human kingdom, civilians and slaves do not have surnames, and knight blood is mostly produced among nobles, and knight attendants are generally children of nobles. Knight attendants like Nicole who do not have a surname indicate that her mother should be from the York family.
maid.
According to aristocratic tradition, the offspring of a maid and a noble are still low-class people. Unless Nicole is promoted to a knight, she will always be a low-class low-class person.
On average, only one out of five knight squires can be promoted to knight.
Victor wanted to comfort him, but had no words to talk about. The two of them were speechless for a while, but the carriage unknowingly drove to the destination, Rose Manor.
"Your Excellency Baron, the dinner will not start until later. You can take a rest in the reception room now." Victor was led by a manor attendant to the door of a room. The waiter bowed to Victor.
Nodding to the waiter, Victor gently pushed open the gorgeous golden wooden door and walked into the room. When he entered the room, he saw pink curtains, snow-white cashmere carpets, a luxurious ivory bed, an exquisite dressing table, and a long
A curvaceous woman lies on her side on the chaise longue.
This was clearly a noble lady's bedroom. Victor immediately turned around and opened the door to leave, but found that the door had been locked from the outside.
At this moment, a soft voice sounded in the room. "Baron Victor, you are so rude, why did you come into my bedroom?"
Victor took a closer look and saw that the woman on the chaise longue had slowly stood up. Her golden hair was casually scattered on her fair shoulders. Her beautiful eyes were looking at Victor with a smile but not a smile.
None other than the Countess of York.
Victor was about to say something when he saw the countess walking towards him. She was wearing a low-cut red spider silk robe that highlighted the countess' skin as beautiful as snow. Her appearance was as beautiful as a flower. When her willow waist was swaying lightly, her two snow-white legs were slender.
Her beautiful legs appear and disappear under the slit robe.
This seductive scene made Victor's mouth go dry and he was speechless for a moment.
When the Countess came closer and saw the deep white ravine on her chest, Victor suddenly felt embarrassed and hurriedly moved his eyes downwards, only to see the pink toenails shining like crystal on her slender feet as white as jade, which dazzled him even more.
Mysterious.
"Victor, what are you thinking about?" The countess's white and tender hands had already been placed on Victor's chest, and she looked at him with charming eyes.
"Countess, I..."
"Call me Sylvia." The countess covered Victor's lips with her delicate white hands, turned around, took his arm, and walked into the room. "I heard that Sophia once invited the head of the palace ladies to
Countess Ariel, I will personally teach you etiquette lessons, so let us discuss court etiquette before the dinner."
In Victor's memory, the lady Ariel taught him the techniques of pleasing women, and the lady even invited some beautiful women with masks to give him lessons from time to time.
Although the young Baron is no stranger to the absurd life of aristocrats, the current Baron Victor is a fake. This kind of erotic scene has already made him unable to control himself, and he has no choice but to be at the mercy of Sylvia.
