Chapter 35 The Baron

"Hello, His Majesty the King, your loyal nobleman Anthony Sloe sends his regards."

After a brief daze, Anthony came to his senses, took off his top hat and placed it on his chest, bowing slightly to show respect for George III. This was also the etiquette that a nobleman should have after meeting the king.

Well...the confusion I felt before is understandable.

"No need to be polite, kind Mr. Anthony, I have heard about your deeds. I can't believe it. You are only seventeen years old. Baron Carlo really has a good son."

George III smiled and pressed his hands, obviously very interested in Anthony in front of him.

Although he has been the king of Loen Kingdom for a long time, he has never held a knighthood ceremony for a young nobleman who is only seventeen years old, and he is even a baron.

You know, this is almost unique in the entire history of the Loen Kingdom.

Although ordinary earls and even dukes also have such ability, they will not do so, otherwise they will not gain any benefit except that their reputation in the aristocratic circle will be lowered.

"Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty the King. This is what I should do."

Anthony bowed slightly in humility, and when he felt the gazes of other members of the House of Representatives and nobles sitting around him, he couldn't help but smile.

This can be regarded as a hidden benefit of obtaining a title.

Although he is only a small baron, his seventeen-year-old age cannot be underestimated by others. Even if they are counts or even dukes, no one can guarantee whether Anthony will be equal to them in the future.

As a result, there were quite a few nobles who wanted to make friends with him in advance.

His network of contacts will also expand accordingly.

"Okay, kind young nobleman, Anthony Slow, I will hereby confer on you the title of Baron of the Kingdom of Loen."

George III did not continue to trade business with each other. As the king of a country, he had a lot of things to do. At least after the investiture ceremony, he still had to deal with more things.

He was just a baron. Apart from his age, which surprised him a little, he didn't need to be too concerned about it.

"Because of your kind character and passion for the country, I, George III. Augustus, hereby confer on you the title of baron of the Kingdom of Loen, reward you with a mansion, and thousands of gold coins. I hope you can continue to be the king of Loen."

Contribute to development.”

King George III wore a crown and said with a solemn expression.

The congressmen and nobles present also bowed their heads to express respect for him.

"Thank you for your reward, Your Majesty the King. I will definitely continue to contribute to the Kingdom of Loen."

When George III's voice fell, Anthony also replied officially, with a solemn expression, as if he had accepted a major mission, which made everyone present sigh with emotion at his loyalty to the king.

Well, with the ability of "Faceless Man", Anthony is very talented in acting.

George III nodded with satisfaction, then announced the end of the knighthood ceremony and left alone.

In the hall, many councilors and nobles also left directly. Well...this included Anthony's "father-in-law" Count Hall, but there were still many nobles walking towards Anthony to see the smile on his face.

, the designation is to make good friends with this young noble who may go further in the future.

And Anthony was naturally happy to hear it.

——

"it is finally over."

After leaving the palace surrounded by many nobles, Anthony stretched himself on the carriage.

Compared with fighting with extraordinary people, the mental energy required to communicate with upper-class nobles is more tiring.

But it was not without gain.

After inadvertently revealing that he was still an occult enthusiast but lacked some materials recently, several viscounts took the initiative to provide information and revealed to Anthony the extraordinary materials held in their family's treasury.

And this also covers the potion formula materials that Anthony needs to become the Sequence 7 "Amnesia Master".

In this way, he no longer has to worry about finding extraordinary materials, he only needs to trade with those viscount gentlemen.

By the way, the funds he currently has, even after donating nearly one million, are still half a hundred.

This also made Anthony couldn't help but sigh, no matter which world he is in, the money is best made by the common people at the bottom.

To put it harshly, it’s like cutting leeks.

Anthony shook his head helplessly, and continued to admire the scenery outside the window, watching the carriage drive straight towards the Eastchester Manor in Queens Backlund.

Yes, he was going to find his "father-in-law" Count Hall.

Previously in the palace, many nobles surrounded him, but Earl Hall just gave him a look, then turned and left.

But Anthony knew that Earl Hall had something to tell him.

And I'm afraid this will also involve Audrey's problem.

Soon, under the rapid driving of the carriage, Anthony arrived at Eastchester Manor.

Putting on his top hat, Anthony checked his clothes to make sure there were no wrinkles before knocking on the door of the manor.

"I am the newly promoted Baron Anthony Slow, here to visit Earl Hall."

Holding his cane, Anthony stood at the door and waited for a few minutes. Then the valet opened the door for him and led him in.

"Mr. Baron, Mr. Earl is already waiting for you inside."

Entering the manor, it was the same study as last time. Anthony knocked on the door, and Earl Hall's voice came from inside.

"come in."

Perhaps it was close to afternoon tea time, but Anthony did not see Audrey.

After receiving Earl Hall's response, he also stepped into the study room and immediately saw the black tea that was poured into a cup with hot steam floating around.

It seems that he is indeed waiting for Anthony.

"Anthony, no, Monsieur Baron, I think I should call you that now."

"You should call me Anthony, Count. I'm not quite used to the title Baron yet."

Anthony took the black tea from Earl Hall and said with a smile.

I remember at the beginning, if you hadn't said that if you want to pursue Audrey, you must have an identity that matches her, otherwise I would have been put on the back burner and wouldn't have gotten a viscounty title. You must have half of the credit for this.

Anthony cursed in his heart and sipped the black tea in a slightly calm mood.

The improvement of his status also gave him the confidence to remain calm and composed in front of Earl Hall.

"Well, Mr. Anthony, first of all, I would like to congratulate you on becoming a baron and fulfilling your promise to me."

"Among the nobles in the entire Kingdom of Loen, you are the most capable and courageous noble I have ever seen. You are not shy about this, I can see it."
