Lord: The inheritance right is taken away at the beginning

Chapter 26: Surprise

In the castle's courtyard on the lake, the Hermann family sat on a bench and spent a warm afternoon tea time.

"Father, isn't it inappropriate for us to treat Luo Ning like this?"

Malik couldn't help but express his feelings. He was very surprised to hear German's arrangement.

"Yes, father!"

Marina agreed while eating her favourite fruit pudding. She was almost depressed after eating bread and dry meat on the road for the past two days. It would be more comfortable to be home.

"Although the food in Ronin's team is terrible, at least he saved Malik and me. I'm going to ask the chefs to make something delicious to entertain him!"

"Hehe~"

The tall and muscular, one-armed lone wolf put down the fruit plate and said, "You are still young and don't understand many things. Although Roning was deprived of his inheritance rights and was sent to a poor and remote mountain town, Barrington of the Hyde family is very narrow-minded."

Marina didn't understand, but the younger Malik understood a little.

"Father, are you saying that the Hyde family will still avenge Selina? Will they still deal with Ronin?"

German shook his head. "Not yet. Lord Lulans is still alive. But Lord Lulans is in poor health. If he is gone one day, it will be hard to say."

"Although Roning saved you, I am very grateful to him, but it is not a good thing to be caught by the petty-minded Barrington. Therefore, it is better for us to keep a distance from Roning as much as possible."

At the same time, Roning's convoy had left Hushang Town and was resting on the side of the road.

"Master, the Green family is so rude!"

The butler Chahar still complained to Roning about the Green family's hospitality.

"We saved their family's heir after all, but they didn't even arrange a lunch for us and just let us take our things and leave. It's clear that they don't take you and Wushan Fort seriously!"

Yes, after Flavia prepared the supplies, she decided to leave without saying goodbye.

No matter how thick-skinned Luo Ning was, he would not want to force someone to stay for a meal.

For him, as long as he gets the thing, it's enough.

Chahar glanced at the new carriages at the rear of the team and complained, "We only have so little supplies. Who would care about them?"

Luo Ning laughed, "What do you know!"

He was very rare in these supplies.

If he counted, he had 488 gold coins on hand, just a little short of 500.

For Roning, if he wanted to complete the first recharge gift and obtain a subordinate with the Qualification of the Proud Sun, he could simply sell a horse to collect the 500 gold coins.

Add to that the magic crystal I got from Pedro, and it's more than enough.

However, he did not do so. All the money was used to buy magic crystals. If he arrived in Shanlin Town and needed them but didn't have them, that would be a problem.

Moreover, he now has two subordinates, McKen and Elrond, and he himself is about to become a mid-level professional, so there should be no problem for him to settle down in Shanlin Town.

"Master, you are just too good-tempered. With the Earl's character, they would never dare to do this!"

Chahar was still angry about Luo Ning, "Thank goodness we took good care of Marina and her brother these past two days!"

Let alone Chahar, to be honest, Roning was ready to have a good night's rest in Lake Town. He really didn't expect Baron Hermann to be so cautious, or it would be more appropriate to say that he was timid.

"McCann," Roning called out.

McCann came over immediately, "My lord, what do you want?"

"After leaving Lake Town, the guards' training continued as usual."

Luo Ning ordered: "Also, I will improve your strength again; don't let me down!"

McKen was stunned for a moment, then he felt the fighting spirit in his body filling up, and he understood what Roning meant.

"McCann will definitely live up to your expectations!"

Luo Ning waved his hand and said, "Go ahead and digest this improvement."

To break through from intermediate to advanced level, a knight needs 200 energy points, while a magician needs 300 energy points.

Taking into account that the current situation required a combat power ranking and Elrond was a light magician, Ronin planned to upgrade McKen's level first and allow him to reach the advanced level as soon as possible.

At this time, Mikan's level of progress has reached 70/200.

Roning calculated that if there was no other income from energy essences and only relied on monthly sign-ins, McKen would be able to become a high-level knight by next month.

In a small town, high-level knights are already the ceiling of combat power.

Take Lake Town, for example. Apart from Baron German, who is a bronze knight, the Green family doesn't seem to have a second bronze knight.

Their Knight Commander, Andrea Lawry, is only a high-level peak knight.

While Ronin was thinking, a commotion suddenly broke out among the guards.

"What's going on?" Luo Ning looked over.

But then a guard ran over excitedly and knelt on one knee in front of Roning.

"My Lord, my Lord! I have made a breakthrough. I have awakened the Dou Qi seed!"

"oh?"

Ronin's face lit up with joy. He glanced at the magician and said, "Elrond, please help me check this."

"At your service!"

Elron walked forward with a smile and poked his finger at the guard's heart. As his mental power penetrated a little, he sensed the other party's fighting spirit seed, which was in a very weak state.

The guards were unfamiliar with this man who suddenly appeared on the team. They only knew that Elrond was a friend of the Baron, so everyone was respectful of him.

At this moment, the guard, kneeling on one knee, finally understood that the Baron's friend was not a simple person.

He looked at Elrond expectantly, and the latter nodded, turned around and congratulated Ronin, "Sir, he has indeed awakened the Dou Qi seed."

"Congratulations, sir. You have another knight under your command!"

Chahar looked excited, and he felt more and more that following Master Roning was a wise choice.

When the other guards heard this confirmation, they all looked envious.

Extraordinary! There is actually an extraordinary person among them.

People say that to become noble, the first step is to become a freeman, the second step is to become an official, a servant or an awakened extraordinary person, the third step is to become a knight, and the fourth step is to be granted a title.

The guard in front of him took the second step.

Luo Ning looked at the young man in front of him, who was a little thin but had hope in his eyes and couldn't help but laugh.

"Very well, tell me your name and age!"

"Sir, my name is David, and I will be sixteen this May!" the boy replied excitedly.

Luo Ning's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that this was such a good young talent. Sure enough, he made the right choice by choosing someone under 18 years old.

"good!"

Luo Ning was very satisfied. "From today on, you will be McKen's deputy. Your salary will increase from 2 copper coins per day to 30 copper coins per day!"

It's not that Roning is giving random salaries. When he left Wushan Castle that day, he asked Hallward, and this is basically the treatment for junior knights.

"Oh my god, thirty copper coins!"

David was shocked by the number. He didn't expect to get such a high salary or to become a professional knight one day.

Thinking of his persistence during this period of time and the delicious food and drink provided by Lord Luo Ning, he was so moved that he shed tears.

"Thank you, sir. Wuwu, thank you, sir!"

David said with a trembling voice, "It is your gift and training that has allowed me to awaken the seeds of fighting spirit. The Seven Gods bear witness that from now on, I, David, swear to follow you until death!"

"I see your loyalty!"

Roning encouraged him, "I also believe that the junior knight is just your starting point. One day, you will grow to a level that will surprise me!"

"Guard Officer, I'll leave David to you. Train him well and make him the top fighter in Shanlin Town!"

"Yes, sir!"

Mikan responded with all his strength. He finally had a professional knight under him.

When the other guards, especially those under the age of eighteen, saw how David was treated, they were envious and jealous, but at the same time, they were more determined to train well.

If what Roning had said before about training leading to breakthroughs was a lie, then David's true deeds were telling everyone that what Roning said was true.

Training really works wonders!

Is it really true?

Luo Ning himself was a little sceptical.

He would rather believe that David could make a breakthrough, thanks to the recent improvement in food and also because the other party had good talent.

At the age of sixteen, he awakened his fighting spirit seed and became a junior knight with excellent qualifications.

"Now, I have three extraordinary people under my command!"

Luo Ning felt quite high-spirited for a moment.

"Hillwood Town, here I come!"
