Although Serey had doubts about the bloodline of the family, his father did not speak, and he could not speak nonsense. Although he was still young, Serey, who was in the noble circle, knew that talking nonsense could easily bring dangers. The DuPont Delin family did not seem to be harmonious on the surface. The Supreme King had deposed three "brothers" so far - demoting them and their families to servants or civilians, and also promoted some servants to new knights. Everyone knew that those servants used to serve the Supreme King in the past, which was a means of stable status.
Sere knew that trouble should be avoided before becoming a knight.
The city has a unique smell in the morning. The fireworks that spread out in the simple breakfast shop are the smell that Sere prefers, but many nobles think it is waste gas, and they would rather soak themselves in perfume.
The other nine people around Serey also changed into appropriate clothes because they were all nobles. In the world of knights, class is everything. No matter what age they are, they must do things that match their own status. This is the first thing they must learn after they become sensible, and it is even more important than walking.
When ten young men and women rode huge four-legged pack beasts from alien stars by the crowd, many people took off their hats and greeted them.
As an outer city, the roads here are not spacious, and there are still various vehicles driving on the road. However, when facing the Knight Master and the Lady, they had to work hard to open up space and keep their cars away from those muscular beasts. This seems a bit funny. Machinery should be more developed than flesh and blood, but these pack beasts are much more valuable than vehicles. They are all brought in from distant planets, and each of them is worth a thousand gold.
Olga City is called prosperous, with neat streets and rows of houses, as well as various tall buildings, street lights, rail trains, even airships, wing wings, etc., which are advanced tools. However, as a knight world, class gaps are inevitable. Whether it is an entire family or a scattered individual, when passing through residential areas, Serei can see some farmers who have lost their land or citizens in debt curled up near the alleys, or use their meager property to build rough huts and shelters to resist the cold wind blowing through the city in winter.
Sere tried hard to control the car. He heard that some naughty guys liked to run wildly on the streets and caused casualties. Although the Knight world has strict laws, the laws are also formulated according to the class.
When the group arrived at the wealthier areas in the northeast of the city, the streets became wider, but even here, several pack beasts still created a certain degree of chaos on the streets, and the guards had to work hard to maintain order and give way to the nobles.
There are many schools in this place, and many civilian children look at these knights through the school fence, which makes Sere sit in the saddle even more straight, with the leather under his butt creaking.
The streets in the wealthy areas are cleaner and tidy. The sidewalks are paved with smooth stone slabs and street lights are hung high, so there will be bright light at night.
Various advertisements are constantly playing on huge billboards on the streets, which is dazzling. There are tall buildings on both sides. At some intersections, huge sculptures are placed. They are usually various types of knight mechas. There are little angels hanging over the city, dragging flags and flying continuously. This is how different families express their "territory".
There is also an artistic museum in this neighborhood. Sere has been to several times. The museum displays various precious exhibits. The most eye-catching one is a giant sculpture depicting the scene of war. It is a scene where Lord Olga led his adopted sons to fight side by side with the Astral Knights. Through its realistic expressiveness, people feel as if they are there and feel the cruelty and glory of the war.
“That church is so beautiful.”
A gentle female voice came from the side. Sere turned his head and saw Tasia coming to him at some point when she was driving the pack beast.
Tasia is half a year older than Sere, and the two are still in a sense of marriage. However, since the adopted sons of Lord Olga have no blood relationship, they rarely call each other brothers and sisters before.
In fact, intermarriage among the DuPont Delin family has already occurred, and some are still doll marriages.
Tasia is a famous beauty and talented woman even in the academy. At this time, she is wearing a white cloak decorated with fur on the edges, and her long black hair spreads over her shoulders, which forms a sharp contrast. Under the cloak is a black knight's suit with a tail skirt.
Although she is still young, her appearance has been highlighted. She has a fair and tender oval face. Her eyes under her crescent eyebrows are as crystal clear as black gems. She looks so beautiful, and her pink face is red lips.
But her personality is not as gentle as her beauty. In fact, whether it is fighting training or weapon training, she often knocked down male students with an overwhelming advantage, almost including Serey - the number of winners and losses of the two of them was quite similar, and Serey's winning rate was higher.
Serei followed her gaze and saw the golden dome of the church, and the eagle emblem standing on the dome overlooking all living beings.
"The third new church, our Majesty Madyas, seems to be particularly generous to religion, and if he could give a little mercy to the peasants displaced by the flood, I would appreciate his kindness even more."
Tasia smiled slightly, and she already had a charming smell.
"You, like your father, care about civilians."
Sere shook his head.
"Everyone says that the poorest beggar in the capital also lives like a country lord."
He looked up at the Star Speecher's spire that was being built, which was said to be a thousand meters high. This huge project was said to have been in progress for ten years and will be completed soon.
Not far away, there is a huge metal statue two hundred meters high, carving the image of Lord Olga. It is said that it cost more than half a year of taxes to build it.
"So what life do these country lords live? The DuPontlin family already owns a civilized world, and should not be the same as those backward agricultural worlds. Have you heard of that? The tracks were built between two cities, and the lord of the forest that the tracks were going to pass through thought it would destroy his hunting ground and demand compensation of several times the cost of the track. In the end, this plan was put on hold... Some lords even made a horrifying nineteen tax on their territory."
"But it's natural for the knights to get territory."
"It should be..."
Serey smiled and shook his head, then sighed that he did not belong to this age.
Chapter completed!
