Early the next morning, a slightly shabby carriage drove slowly toward the city at the end of the road.
"Uncle, thank you. Fortunately, you came back last night, otherwise I would really be dead!"
Clemont, who had just woken up, looked at the groom driving outside and thanked him sincerely.
"Just call me Ferdinand!"
Ferdinand, who was concentrating on driving the carriage, said softly.
"Okay uncle, that uncle, do you think I can really defeat him with just swordsmanship?
"What? Don't believe in yourself? Didn't you kill him with your own hands?"
Hearing this, Clemont scratched his head. Even so, there was actually luck involved last night. What's more, the black-armored knight probably underestimated the enemy, so he was able to kill him. If he had used all his strength from the beginning,
If you go, I guess you will be completely cold by now.
But if my physical fitness were better and my strength was stronger, it wouldn't be impossible.
Having said this, he seemed to have thought of something, and got into the car again. After a while, he walked out with a black emblem and sat on the shaft of the car on the other side, with an unusually heavy expression on his face.
Seeing his expression, Ferdinand shook his head, then waved his riding whip, and then the carriage drove towards the city at an extremely fast speed.
…
"Originally I thought you were just mean, but I didn't expect you to be so vicious. I've made a note of this!"
At this moment, Clemont had mixed feelings in his heart, because he knew this emblem, and he remembered that the emblem of his nominal stepmother's family was like this.
If the woman Pamela wanted to kill herself in order to consolidate her son's status, then what role did her biological father play in this matter?
Did he not know about this? Or did he acquiesce to it? Clemont didn't know all of this, but the only thing he could be sure of was that the woman owed him a life, and she had to pay back the life she owed!
The carriage quickly arrived at the gate of the city. This city is the city of Baron Odison, and it can be regarded as one of the most prosperous cities in this area besides Sacker City.
After handing over four Ota copper coins, the two successfully entered the city.
The city is not big, but there are people everywhere. The streets and alleys are full of bustling atmosphere. There are many shops beside the streets. The shops are constantly putting goods on the shelves. At a glance, it is full of a dazzling variety of goods.
Many of these goods were things that Clement had never seen before.
Sitting on the carriage shaft, looking at the otherworldly buildings and pedestrians on both sides, Clement's dull mood suddenly improved a lot.
"Uncle Fernandi, let's deal with this horse right here!"
When passing by a horse dealer, Clement couldn't help but look at the horse pulling the cart in front of him.
This horse was the mount of the knight last night. Although he and his attendants had been buried by Uncle Fernandi, all his belongings were placed in the carriage at the moment, including the expensively fake black suit.
First.
"Yes, but not here! If you sell it to him, you will only harm him!"
After hearing Uncle Ferdinand's words, Clement slapped his forehead hard.
Yes, how could I have forgotten this? Knight mounts like this will be recorded in the knights' order. They are military horses in nature. Selling military horses is a capital crime.
"Uncle Ferdinand, how should we deal with it? This horse is also a disaster if it is left here. Could it be that he finds a place where no one is around and kills him..."
In fact, Clemont really hoped to keep this valuable iron-bone horse, but the horse's identity was there, and if he stayed, it would only bring him endless trouble.
"This matter is not urgent, let's heal your injury first!"
After hearing Ferdinand's words, Clemont nodded. The main reason they went to the city this time was to treat his injuries. Although the wounds were sewn up by Uncle Ferdinand, due to the medical conditions in this world, they could not be treated in time.
If so, 99% of the time he will wear his braids.
Soon the carriage arrived at the designated parking spot. Although it was morning, the large open space was already filled with various vehicles.
This place is very close to the city gate, and is specially designated for parking. On the one hand, it is for the convenience of businessmen who come here, and on the other hand, parking fees can be charged to subsidize the finance. Baron Hardison is very profitable.
"Tsk, tsk, it's so big! If this guy was placed in the previous life, he would definitely be regarded as a giant dragon!"
Looking at the huge lizard lying in front of him with its eyes closed and glowing blue, Clemont couldn't help but admired it.
"The first-level monster scale lizard has a docile personality, is not afraid of hot and cold weather, and has long endurance. It is a very popular tool for pulling carts among merchants."
Fernandi handed the two Ota copper coins to the guard, then glanced at the huge truck behind the scale lizard and chuckled.
"Haha, I didn't expect it to be them. Don't worry about dismounting now. Let's go and treat your injuries first."
…
"Rita, don't sleep, guests are coming!"
In a small shop in a remote alley, a young-looking girl was lying on the table and fast asleep, with drool dripping from the corner of her mouth without even realizing it.
Next to her is an old lady wearing shabby clothes. The old lady's body is very thin, but her eyes are very bright and energetic.
She smiled apologetically at the guest at the door, and then gently pushed the sleeping girl.
"Get up quickly, Doctor Rita. If you don't sleep again, the copper coin will run away!"
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, the sleeping girl suddenly opened her eyes, and the next moment she stood up straight, muttering "Don't run away with the copper coins~!"
But when she saw the smiling guests at the door, her young face suddenly turned red, and she felt a little cramped and didn't know where to put her hands.
"Haha, please sit down, two guests. The child talked in his sleep and made the guests laugh!"
Hearing this, Clemont and Fernandi sat down on the shabby chairs in the store, and then chuckled.
"Haha, it's okay, the little girl is quite cute!"
The old lady smiled, and then pushed the little girl who lowered her head angrily, "Rita, don't be stunned, go and treat the guest's injury!"
"Oh, okay grandma!"
After seeing Clemont's injury, Rita touched her chin and said with a serious face.
"Guest, let's agree first. Your injury is very serious, so the cost of treatment is a bit high. Well..."
"Ding ding ding~"
Ten copper Ota coins were placed on the table by Fernandi.
"Okay, guest, I will treat you now, please take off your clothes!"
Seeing the little girl's money-obsessed look, Clemont was a little amused, but the next moment he couldn't laugh anymore.
"Ouch!...Woo..."
Deep in the alley, two dogs who were working hard to strengthen their pack were frightened by this miserable cry and ran away with their tails between their legs.
In the store, Clemont, whose mouth was gagged with a rag by Fernandi, now had veins on his neck and his face was red from holding in. Against the backdrop of the green light ball in Rita's hand, he looked like an evil ghost.
"Um, I'm sorry, guest, I haven't awakened my power for a long time, so I can't do painless treatment yet. Please be patient, I'll be fine soon!"
After Rita finished speaking, the green light in her hand pressed on Clemont's shoulder again, and a magical scene happened. The necrotic and white flesh at the wound was like snowflakes melted by the sun when exposed to the green light.
The same, turned into green smoke bit by bit, and the fresh flesh and blood below grew rapidly as if taking hormones, and healed together quickly.
A few minutes later, looking at the sweaty and hopeless Clemont, Rita lowered her head and kicked her toes like a child who had made a mistake.
Ferdinand on the side was staring at Rita as if he had discovered a unique treasure.
