"There are some, including swordsmanship and riding... In short, if you continue to train like this, you may have the possibility of improvement, but in the end it is not as good as the progress brought by combat."

Soderol frowned. The idea of ​​"wanting to become stronger" was always his purpose to follow Roddy, so he had an extremely intuitive understanding of his own strength.

"Have you ever thought about being a knight? I don't mean the title that is not very useful, but the real knight... the kind that can lead the team to charge on the battlefield."

Roddy smiled after saying that, "This has nothing to do with the 'No. 1 Cavalry Regiment of the Kingdom'. I just think your physical fitness and ability should have better room for performance if you cooperate with the war horse."

Soderol thought about this question seriously and then replied: "I know the knight's powerful force, but the equipment needed and the energy consumed..."

“That’s not a problem.”

Hearing Roddy's promise as a "rich man", he smiled helplessly and nodded, "...If it was such an ideal state, I would rather be a knight."

"That's good--but I want to ask you a question, have you heard of the Wellington Knights?"

Roddy recalled the advanced profession of "Knight", but suddenly asked such a less relevant question.

"Knight Wellington? The 'Shadow Knight' beside Duke Russiflon?" Soderol frowned and thought, "I only know that he is very powerful, but he seems to rarely take action. I don't know much about it... why did he mention him suddenly?"

"He is actually much better than you think, I mean-"

Before Roddy finished speaking, Carter hurriedly ran up from downstairs and shouted: "Captain Roddy, outside the hotel... there is a knight from the Duke's Mansion looking for you."

"who?"

Roddy stood up and asked.

"He said... his name is Wellington."

Carter swallowed, his face filled with a little awe, and he obviously knew what the name meant.

...

A few minutes later, Roddy, who was sitting in the Duke's carriage, had basically guessed what he would face today.

The Wellington Knights came to greet him for a special trip. Such treatment had already shown many problems. When he looked at the tall knight riding a war horse outside the carriage, he couldn't help but remember what he wanted to say to Soderol just now...

Simply put, what he wanted to discuss with Soderol was his future advanced career direction. The reason why he mentioned Wellington was because his "advanced career" happened to be one of the few "imba" professions Roddy knew - "Ghost Knight".

In the memory of another world, Roddy never saw the Wellington Knight in the game, because the opponent died in a battle in 594. However, the reason why this name can be clearly remembered is entirely because the only video that reveals the combat effectiveness of the "Ghost Knight" caused a stir among the players as soon as it was released.

At the beginning, this powerful knight was level 50 of the "Ghost Knight". He led more than 200 defeated soldiers and was surrounded by three thousand orcs. When he broke through, the Wellington Knights brought six "ghost clones" with explosive attack power and directly crushed nearly 100 wolf cavalry and orcs. The powerful strength he showed completely shocked the players to the ground.

Although the Wellington Knights eventually died of physical failure due to outnumbered people, such combat ability has really become the focus of discussion for a while, and this imba profession has also become the target of countless players.

Roddy's previous idea was how to get Soderol to obtain the inheritance of this knight - his ideas were very direct: Titus and Wellington were both "guardian knights" of Duke Angmar, and he had no chance to become his subordinates. If we talk about training, letting Soderol, a talented guy, learn directly, is definitely the best choice... But as for how to find opportunities, this is the question he will think about next.

But Roddy knew better that at this time, the first thing he had to face was the awakened Duke of Angma - and what decision would the other party make after seeing his letter? Are they friendly to him? Be wary of him? Or both?

Looking at the Wellington Knight walking in front of the carriage, Roddy frowned slightly, but he was not sure what such a powerful lord was thinking.

"What do you do if you think so much... You won't have any conflicts anyway."

He shook his head, exhaled, leaned against the back of the chair and sighed softly.

*******

At the same time, the atmosphere in the Duke's Mansion seemed very warm.

The busy servants walked back and forth in the corridor, passing documents, preparing lunch, and reporting taxes. The originally deserted mansion returned to its original liveliness - Sally opened the door and sighed quietly in her heart... She seemed to have not seen such a scene for many years.

When she suddenly walked out of the shadow that had long been shrouded in herself, she still couldn't adapt to such a change. So whenever she looked around, Sally always tried hard to imprint everything in her mind, fearing that all this was just a beautiful dream that would wake up at any time.

It was two hours since she returned to the Duke's Mansion, and until now, her heart is still filled with an inexplicable satisfaction and joy - not only because of her father's recovery, but also because she knew who was the one who cured her father...

The Duke told her very simply that there was something about Roddy, and the letter left by Roddy was also read by Sally. The things written in the letter were actually very formulaic, just explaining the threats of orcs, undeads and Francis to the territory of Iversa. Although it seems a bit alarmist to ordinary people, from the perspective of the lord's level, the things on it were indeed bloody. In some conversations, Sally could hear some "approval" meaning from her father's words, which naturally made her very happy.

"Miss."

While thinking about the next arrangement, Sally was stopped by the maid who ran away from home. She turned her head and smiled and said, "Mel, what's wrong?"

Mel, who was disguised as flawless, made a happy look and replied: "The master asked you to go to the study room, saying that it is a luncheon that may invite important guests."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

Sally, in a good mood, responded with a smile, then gently carried the hem of the white gauze skirt and trotted towards her father's study, happily looking like a deer.

But behind her, although Mel still kept smiling, the smile in her eyes became cold without notice...

Soon, Duke Angma, who was writing a letter in the study, noticed his daughter's arrival. After writing the last stroke, he inserted his quill into the ink bottle and said casually: "I haven't returned to his bedroom for a long time, right? Do you feel okay?"

"Everything is the same as before." Sally smiled, but her eyes were slightly darker, "It's almost the same..."

Francis' bedroom had been completely emptied. When Sally discovered this fact, she knew that her father had known the cause and effect of the matter. However, the father and daughter had never mentioned this matter tacitly. Sally was actually nervous, but Duke Angma's attitude really made her, the daughter, unable to see through...

"Of course some things can't come back." Angma smiled, his words were very dull, and the feeling of melancholy was quickly covered up. He raised his head, "You should have heard of the luncheon. I just received the news that Rubens came to the Bishop of the Bishop, so dress up more formally at lunch."

"kindness."

Sally walked behind her father obediently and gently kneaded his shoulders.

Angma smiled with relief and continued: "By the way, in addition to Titus and Wellington's meetings, there should be someone else to attend."

"kindness?"

In the past, my father rarely emphasized such things to himself, and Sally raised her eyebrows-"I know him?"

"Of course I know... it's Roddy-oh, daughter, I pinch it a little lighter."

"He, he, what is he doing here?" Sally's voice was obviously a little wrong, "Uh-I mean, why is he a scout captain... not right! Father, you fool me!"

Sally immediately understood his father's thoughts, and his little fist hit Angma's shoulder, causing the duke to burst into laughter. This was the first time he saw his daughter in such a look, and he couldn't help but ask curiously: "I don't mean to test you. Don't hold a grudge against me, go and prepare first, and you'll say anything at noon."

"Okay... OK, I'll go now--No, I don't care about him coming!"

Sally was originally happy, but then she remembered Roddy's "bastard" answer when she "confessed" last night. She was so angry that she immediately frowned and snorted a few times, leaving angrily.

Duke Angma has a funny expression. Although he doesn't understand why his daughter is so angry, he also knows... she is probably moved by someone.

He smiled and shook his head, then shifted his energy to the luncheon that was about to begin, and reached out to pick up the letter from Roddy on the desk. However, the duke suddenly narrowed his eyes and whispered: "What kind of young man is he?"

***

The carriage that Roddy was riding in passed through the city and arrived at the Duke of Russiflon.

However, just as the luxury carriage was bypassing the sculptures and flower beds in front of the mansion, he noticed a carriage next to him that was driving into the mansion almost at the same time as him... Looking at the golden and red roses and cross logos outside the carriage, Roddy couldn't help but frown - is the Bishop coming?

For the "Rose Cross", Roddy still holds the player's mentality, that is, "I only have reputation and rewards, and I don't care about anything else." So even if I meet the general or even the cardinal, he is not interested in going up to talk or hug his thighs. When he meets the general, he does not have any respect or fear in his heart, but he doesn't understand why the Duke invites himself and the general to attend the luncheon at the same time...

Could it be that Rubens wanted to thank himself for saving his life?

When he got off the carriage, Roddy couldn't help but meet with the Wellington Knight and Rubens in the robe, so he soon discovered that things were not as he had imagined.

"Who is this?"

When he saw Roddy, the governor was neither enthusiastic nor cold, and asked the butler John beside him with a reserved look on his face.

Of course, John didn't speak much and replied simply: "This is the captain of the scout in Nolan Village, Roddy."

"Oh, hello."

Nodding and walking, this was Rubens' subsequent reaction - obviously he didn't know at all... Yesterday was the young man in front of him who saved his life.

In his eyes, the status gap between "Captain Scout" and "Biography Supervisor" is not in the same plane at all. When he heard the title of "Captain Scout", Rubens had already divided Roddy on the list of "ignoring attention"...

The reaction of the Supervisor made Roddy very embarrassed, but his face was not as thick as he could directly seek credit from others... So seeing the Supervisor's perfunctory and disdain for him, Roddy could only curl his lips helplessly and follow him silently.
