The Secret Journey Begins with Becoming a Pirate

Chapter 117: Count Otto (2)!

   Although he knew that Elok might know a little bit of information and he didn't want to say it, Count Otto was not angry.

   After all, being cautious is the best choice in the face of extraordinary times. Moreover, it is the secret of the gods. Knowing nothing is the right choice.

   is facing another nobleman who doesn't know good or bad. A little resistance is common.

   did not continue this topic, he suddenly smiled and said:

   "What do you think of Archduke Drol."

   Why do you suddenly ask such a question? Do you want to change the subject? Or have any other ideas? Elok didn't understand a bit.

   Duke Drol? He thought about it. To be honest:

   "No impression."

   "Hahahaha~~~"

   Unexpectedly, this caused Count Otto to laugh, he held the table with a helpless expression. Open the mouth:

   "It seems that Duke Drol has failed a bit."

   Is it really good to say that Lord Duke? Lord Otto? Also, this is called detachment from the masses. Elok was a little embarrassed and explained:

   "Uh~~ I just don't like reading newspapers. I don't pay much attention to events in Droll City."

   "Alright, alright. Elok. I'm just kidding. Duke Drol is a responsible lord." The smile on Count Otto's face still couldn't be dispelled, and he said.

   And I’m from Duke Droll’s faction, so don’t worry.

   Seeing that Elok really didn't understand what he was saying, it is probably because he didn't know the bad things of the nobility. Count Otto smiled and turned off the subject and asked:

   "Stop talking about this. Let's talk about you."

   "I heard that your sister's cooking skills are great, I don't know what you are interested in."

I? What am I interested in. I am interested in the food my sister cooks.

   Hmm~~ Not bad. After thinking for a while, he smiled slightly and said:

   "Me? I'm a senior amateur food critic."

   "Oh? Hahaha~~" This drew Count Otto's smile again. He clapped his palms, and then he held his forehead with a joking expression:

   "I didn't expect it. I didn't expect it. You are still a couple."

   "Since you and your sister's interests are well matched, I don't know that you are not interested in history. I remember your father is a historical consultant in Droll City." Count Otto asked again.

   "History?" Elok first recalled that his historical knowledge was really weak, and he knew a little about the history of the sewers. So he replied:

"Recently, I am a little interested in the history of the Fifth Age. I learned about the history of the Fifth Age in Droll City through my father. What people think most is that the most historic part of Droll City is the sewer. You said It's not strange."

   His expression was a little surprised, and he said, "I really don't know this. I'm also a little interested."

   Hearing the words, Elok recalled what his father said, then considered the language, and said:

"The city of Droll has a huge sewer system. I have always felt very strange. What is more unexpected is that these sewers have a history of 1,000 years. Construction has been completed since the end of the Fifth Age, and then the city of Droll was destroyed. After the reconstruction, the previous sewers are still used. It's a war~~~"

   "Dad!!"

   was speaking vigorously, and Lorna's complaining voice suddenly interrupted the pleasant conversation between the two.

   "Why did you call Elok here? I'm so anxious."

   Elok turned his head and looked behind him. After hearing Lorna's words, he turned his head and looked at Count Otto. His eyes just collided in the air. The two coughed very tacitly.

   "We had a good conversation. Rona." Count Otto said first. Then he said quickly: "Then I won't bother."

   Hearing the words, Rona curtseyed gracefully and smiled slightly. Decent. Then he pretended to whisper: "Thank you. Father."

   Then he beckoned to Elok. Motioned him to go quickly.

   Seeing this, Elok got up from the chair, took off his hat and bowed politely to Count Otto, and turned away after Count Otto nodded.

   Through the corridor covered with gorgeous wool carpets, the two again came to Rona's small reception room. After closing the door, Elok asked directly:

   "Is my bullet finished?"

   "Of course. It's done a long time ago. Just waiting for you to come. I didn't expect you to go and chat with my dad. It doesn't look like you care at all." Rona said angrily.

   shrugged helplessly, Elok said:

   "I can't help it. Lord Earl's invitation. Isn't it appropriate for me to go? I can't say to go straight away. That would be impolite."

   waved her hand with disgust, Lorna took out a gorgeous-looking small jewelry box from the small drawer under the coffee table. With a wave of his right hand, he lifted the spiritual net on the jewelry box, and said in disgust:

   "Here. Your bullet."

   reached out his right hand to take the box, and Elok opened it to take a look. The nine bullets were placed in three rows on the silk cushion in the jewelry box.

   The top three are shining golden light. The middle one exudes a dim purple brilliance. The bottom one is black with no brilliance.

   Lorna pointed to the bullets very contentedly, and said with golden eyes:

   "Golden hypnotic bullet, purple spirit twine, black tear."

   Seeing these bullets worth 550 gold coins, Elok was also very happy. After looking at it carefully, he cherished the lid of the jewelry box, smiled slightly, and said:

   "In that case, I still have something to do, let's go first."

   "Hey~hey~hey~ Don't worry. Take me out." Lona suddenly said.

   "Well. I have agreed with Count Otto." Elok said with a blink of his eyes.

   But I didn't say what was better.

   Seeing Lorna's suddenly enlightened expression, Elok suddenly felt a little sorry for Lorna in his heart.

   He smiled mysteriously again. Say again:

   "I'm leaving first. You are free."

   "Thank you. Elok." A little star suddenly appeared in Rona's eyes and said sincerely.

   With a smile, Elok turned and left the reception room.

   shook his head and thought helplessly:

   I'm sorry, Lorna. I failed you.

   Don't hate me.

   I have no choice but to do it.

   And it’s really dangerous outside.

  ······

Soon after.

   Lorna ran to Count Otto’s study and made a loud noise:

   "Why don't you let me out."

   "What are you going out to do, it's too dangerous outside." Count Otto said solemnly.

"But Elok told you. Why don't you let me go out? I'm an adult! You said that I can go out as an adult. Later, I can go out with a boyfriend. I have too. I'm a boyfriend. You won't be able to go out after getting married, right?" Rona's tone was quite agitated.

   "It's not impossible." Count Otto heard the words.

"I said I did. He said don't let you go out. The meaning couldn't be more obvious. He doesn't worry about you, afraid that you will be seen by another playboy. Tell me, are these things rare? "Earl Ober said out of nothing.

   "What? I'm talking about it with you~lightnovelpub.net~ Rona emphasized again.

   "What did you say? Isn't it this?" Count Otto asked knowingly.

   "Say~~~Say~~~"

   Suddenly, it seemed as though something had been remembered, Rona stomped her feet forcefully regardless of her image, and cursed hoarsely:

   "Damn Elok. Bastard. You wait for me. Don't let me run into you again."

   Then, he closed the door of the earl’s study, regardless of his image.

   made a "bang~" sound.

   The scared Count Otto jumped.

   shook his head, and said in a low voice:

   "It's better to put this kind of thing on my uncle. Fighting at the head of the bed. It's not a big problem."

   After a while, the knock on the door sounded again. Count Otto also put on a serious air once again, and said in a deep voice:

"Come in."

   Two seconds later, butler Pigg pushed the door to enter. Standing at the door and asking softly:

   "My Lord Earl. Are you all right."

   "It's okay." Count Otto smiled slightly and responded to the butler's greeting.

   Before Pigeon left, he continued:

   "Wait a minute."

  Pig leaned over and said respectfully:

   "Please give me an order."

   "Is there anything in my collection about the history of Droll City in the Fifth Age? Especially about the sewers." Count Otto asked.

   Hearing this, Pigg was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly got rid of the state of being stunned, and flattered quietly:

   "This may need me to look for it. Lord Earl, your collection of books is too rich."

   Hearing this, Count Otto nodded and said:

   "Well, find it for me as soon as possible and send it to the study. Recently I am very interested in the history of Droll City."
