Chapter 12 Conspiracy

"What, arrange for me to coordinate the food team?" Karl said in confusion, looking at Sir Dias who returned to the hotel with a happy face.

"Karl, I really don't know what kind of luck you have. Baron Thors recommended you. Perform well. Maybe your good work will be appreciated by the earl." Sir Dias saw the surprise on Karl's face.

There was no surprise, I just patted him on the shoulder and said deeply.

"No... Baron Thors? Do we know him? Has he recommended me for so long? And even if you want to win over father, you should go to Brother Pine..." Karl asked doubtfully.

"I don't know about this, but Baron Thors said that Pine would go to the front line with me. As a quasi-knight, Pine is indeed going to do something that a knight should do." Sir Dias shrugged.

Shoulder.

"Karl, this is a good opportunity. Take advantage of it and find a job when the time comes, lest you leave and be unable to make a living." Pine also came over and said casually.

He is not jealous of Karl for getting this opportunity, and he even dislikes this position a little. He is a knight...well, although he is only a quasi-knight now, but even so, he still wants to do what knights do - gallop on the battlefield, not

Staying behind would be a coward, or so he thought.

"That's... okay." Karl hesitated for a moment and then nodded. This was not a bad thing for him. As a new youth of the 21st century, he still didn't want to go to the battlefield in person if he could.

It was really too dangerous. Swordsmen have no eyes. Relatively speaking, he was satisfied with this safer job.

And he knew what Sir Dias meant. As the second son, it was impossible for him to inherit Blackthorn Village. Moreover, Sir Dias obviously did not have any property to give him part of. If he wanted to make a living in the future, he would have to make a living on his own.

There is a world out there, and this is a good opportunity.

"Baron Thors is such a good man. You must remember each other's help, understand? We must know how to be grateful." Sir Dias warned. He has always been upright and maintains the qualities that a knight should have. Others give him

If you help others, they will naturally appreciate the kindness of others. If you have the opportunity, you should repay the kindness of others.

"I know, father." Pine said noncommittally. Sir Dias always wanted to instill his ideas into him, which made him very unhappy. He felt that his father was too pedantic. If his father hadn't been so pedantic,

Pedantic, their family can definitely live a better life.

Sir Dias looked at Karl again, and Karl met Sir Dias's gaze and could only nod his head.

But despite this, Karl always felt something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't express it.

Would Baron Thors really be so kind to help him? Or was it really just to win over their family as Sir Dias said? Karl didn't think so, at least he shouldn't.

There is no love for no reason in the world. His family has no interaction with Baron Thors. Why would the other party help him? To win over his family? It may be a bit hurtful to say it. Karl really can't imagine that Sir Dias and his family have any relationship.

What's worth being attracted to is just a dozen so-called "light infantry" wrapped in tattered linen and carrying tattered spears?

Baron Thors is probably not short of such levies without any combat effectiveness...

After thinking for a moment, Karl couldn't think of a reason, so he shook his head and had to give up.

"It's a good thing that Carl can find a good job today. I'll take you to the pub to have some wine to celebrate!" Sir Dias suggested.

"Oh, this is really a great proposal, let's set off right away!" Sure enough, Pine, who was listless just now, jumped up with joy when he heard that he could go to the pub for a drink.

"You kid, you know how to drink all the time!" Sir Dias covered his forehead, a little helpless, but he didn't say much.

"Come on, let's go. I'll let you drink enough today to have a good time before going to the battlefield." Sir Dias waved and walked out of the door, and Pine quickly followed.

Karl has no interest in this. The wine in this era is not very good. At least he feels that it is far different from what he drank before he traveled through time. It can even be said that it is not the same at all. However, after all, the technology in this era is limited and there is no way to drink wine.

All good.

Considering that it was a celebration for him after all, Karl did not refute their face and followed them, but he was still thinking about guarding the food team...



"Your Majesty, there is an envoy from the Earl of Lens. It is said that he came to see him on the order of Baron Thors."

The monarch of Lorraine Castle, the Count of Lorraine, was sitting on the throne in the castle, squinting his eyes slightly and supporting his chin with his hand, as if he was taking a nap, listening to the report of the middle-aged man in front of him, his originally calm face showed

There was a slight fluctuation.

Count Lorraine raised his brows slightly, slowly opened his eyes, and said, "Salm, my Prime Minister, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it is the real Earl. The envoy is outside the castle now. Should we invite him in?" Salm asked.

"Have you verified his identity?" Count Lorraine did not agree immediately, but asked.

"I have verified that it was indeed sent by Baron Thors. The envoy carried the coat of arms of the Eric family and had a personal letter from Baron Thors." Salm said, as an excellent person

Palace Prime Minister, he has naturally taken care of everything.

"Very good Salm, I believe in your ability to do things, but I don't know why Baron Thors sent people to me at this juncture?" Count Lorraine nodded and confirmed Salm, but frowned again.

Come on, Baron Thors is one of the important vassals of the Earl of Lens. Now he is following the Earl of Lens to attack Lorraine Castle. How can he contact him at this time?

"Your Excellency, I don't know this either. The messenger insisted on handing the letter to you personally and was unwilling to tell us the purpose." Salm spread his hands helplessly.

"Oh? Are you so cautious?" Count Lorraine pondered. It seems that it is not a small matter to be so cautious.

"Let him come in." Count Lorraine waved his hand and ordered.

Not long after, a man wrapped in a woolen coat was brought into the castle.

"The ruler of Lorraine Castle, the noble Count of Lorraine, I pay tribute to you on behalf of Baron Thors." The man bowed down respectfully.

"No more polite words. Tell me what your name is and what you're doing here." Count Lorraine said impatiently. Although flattery can indeed make people happy sometimes, it's obvious that Count Lorraine doesn't like flattery.

people.

"I am Elvit, the butler of Baron Thors, and I am here to deliver a letter for Baron Thors." Elvit saw that the other party was impatient, so he didn't say any more nonsense.

He directly explained his intention.

"Drink...it's interesting. That old guy, Count of Rens, is now interested in my territory. We are at war. You don't know, right? Are you here to deliver the letter at this time?" Count Lorraine sneered.

"I think you have misunderstood, Lord Count. This letter is written to you by Baron Towers in his personal capacity," Elvitt said.

"Oh? Private status...what do you mean?" Count Lorraine asked with a raised brow.

"Your Majesty, the Earl, will know after reading the letter." Elvitt smiled lightly, but it was a small lie.

The look of confusion on Count Lorraine's face became even more serious. He groaned and motioned to Salm with his eyes.

Salm understood, walked up to Elvitt, and took the letter. Elvitt did not stop him and allowed the other party to take the letter, and then watched him hand the letter to the Count of Lorraine.

The Count of Lorraine tore open the wax seal, took out the letter inside, and read it carefully.

In Elvitt's sight, Count Lorraine's brows became more and more frowned, and in the end they were completely twisted together. His fingers tapped the armrest lightly, maybe even he didn't notice it.

After reading the letter, Count Lorraine put it aside, frowning, leaning on the backrest, thinking about something.

The Count of Lorraine did not speak, and others did not interrupt him. The castle fell into an eerie silence for a while.

After a long time, Count Lorraine opened his eyes, hesitated, and asked: "What does Baron Thors mean..."

"The Baron must have made it very clear in his letter." Elvitt replied softly.

"Then should I believe the content of the letter?" Count Lorraine folded the letter in his hand, but had no intention of destroying it. This kind of thing may be put to many uses in the future.

"My Lord Earl, believe it or not, that is your business. It's just that there is no benefit for Baron Thors to lie to you. And if this thing is done, it will be a big deal for both you and the Baron."

Great news, please forgive me, I think you also know the difference between Lorraine Castle and Rensburg, right?" The smile on Elvitt's mouth did not change, but Salm looked at him angrily, and he was so disgusted with him.

It was an insult to Lorraine Castle's feelings.

"Be patient." Count Lorraine pressed his hand down. He did not take the other party's words to heart at all. This was undoubtedly just the other party's provocation, and there was no need for him to be fooled.

However, he also seriously considered the other party's words. Elvitt was right. After all, there is a big gap between Lorraine Castle and Rensburg. Even if it is a city defense battle, there is a lot of risk. After all, the other party is the border.

Count, his combat prowess is not comparable to his.

And if this method can be used, then the opponent's army will definitely be severely damaged by then, or even be unable to recover...

Thinking of this, Count Lorraine no longer hesitated and said: "Tell Baron Towers to express my gratitude to him for me."

Elvit smiled, knowing his mission was accomplished.

"I will bring it to you. I believe the Baron will be very happy." After a few simple greetings, Elvitt left. After all, the two sides are still in the war stage. If he appears here for a long time, he will still be there.

Bad.
