Chapter 49: Doug (Part II)


Doug didn't know that Ed beside him was worried about his future.

To be honest, he was ready to accept Lorne's ridicule.

But unexpectedly, Lorne not only did not laugh at him, but also helped him with advice.

Sure enough, people of the same kind are easy to get along with.

In the past, he always had to wear a hypocritical mask when communicating with other nobles.

But even so, others would make fun of him from time to time, saying that he was not worthy of being a northern noble.

Even after being told so many times, he himself felt unworthy of being a northerner.

If it weren't for the very similar appearance to Viscount Gerald, Doug would still wonder if he was the product of his mother's theft.

He became more depressed, and as time went by, Doug became even more timid.

Now that he finally met a person of the same mind, he seemed very excited.

"Sir Fast, you are right.

My duty is to inform people.

As long as I do this, who can say anything about me?"

Introducing Lorne as a confidant, Doug began to care that the meeting in front of him would not last more than a day.

The young guy said, "But in the direction you came from.

I don't think I saw the beacon signal.

Sir Fast, you didn't just forget to light the beacon while running away, did you?"

This is too bad, if the Marquis pursues the case, it will be difficult to handle.

How about this?

I'll put out the signal for you first, so that you can have an explanation when we get to the Marquis.

What do you think?"

He looked at Doug Gerald, who was a little chubby and suspected of being a mental patient, in surprise.

Lorne didn't expect that the other party would go on the road like this.

He just came to stay for one night, but he would just start a fight just because of a few words.

If they did this, the orcs would not appear on their side.

The one who will be held accountable should be Doug himself.

Just when he was about to politely refuse the other party, Ed, a knight who knew the grassland border, immediately stopped Doug's stupid behavior.

"Sir, you can't do this.

If something goes wrong, you will be in danger."

The danger Ed refers to is not that Doug's life will be in danger, but that Viscount Gerald might seize this reason and kill him.

He then helped his favorite younger son to ascend to the throne.

Doug understands the situation in his own family best.

When he woke up, he immediately realized that what he just said was a bit impulsive.

It's rare to meet someone who likes him, so it's no wonder that Doug almost made a mistake.

With a naive smile, he wanted to take back what he had just said.

But how can you say that you don't recognize the promise between nobles?

Fortunately, Lorne is not a nobleman, and promises are bullshit to him.

"Sir Gerald, don't worry.

The post I'm stationed at is not in the direction I came from, and I have already completed the signal that should be sent.

Even if there is an accident in the middle, I believe it will not have anything to do with me. ” Lorne told the truth, but in Doug's ears it sounded like he was trying not to embarrass him.

Thanks to Lorne's kindness, Doug was curious about why Lorne appeared here.

"Sir Lorne, since your sentry is not near here, why did you come to me?"

As he said this, Doug suddenly thought of the red distress signal yesterday and looked at the soldiers around Lorne who were all bloody.

The look further confirmed his suspicion.

"Oh, could it be that you were the one who sent that distress signal?

I remember that direction seems to be the headquarters of the Stany family.

Did something happen?"

Of course a lot happened, but Lorne couldn't explain it in a few words.

He could only say as concisely as possible: "The one who sent the distress signal was Sir Stanny, but he is safe now.

The post I am stationed at is No. 138, and I was the first one to send out the beacon signal, and then the Northern Army The people took me into their investigation team, but something unexpected happened and we got separated.

I think you saw what happened next. " Doug didn't expect that Lorne would be brought to the Northern Legion's reconnaissance team.

Being a scout on the grassland was definitely the most dangerous task.

Secretly thinking that Lorne must have been forced into helplessness, Doug felt deeply sad for him.

"Post 138" Doug originally wanted to comfort Lorne, but Ed beside him suddenly asked in confusion.

Doug, who was reminded by Ed, also reacted.

Post No. 138, isn't he the legendary bumpkin, the illegitimate son of the Fast family?

When thinking back to what Lorne said he was, Sir Fast, Doug really doesn't deserve to be a noble if he doesn't understand who he is.

But how could a small baron and an unpopular bastard have orcs as servants?

The soldiers on the other side did not look like ordinary farmers.

Although Doug, who had some knowledge, did not watch Robert and others take action, he could tell from their appearance that their fighting power was 100% stronger than the family soldiers around him.

"Yes, that's right there.

Why, have you heard of me?"

Lorne asked curiously about what kind of person Fast was in the eyes of others.

He could not find the answer from Fast's own memory.

Looking at the pensive Doug hopefully, Lorne sincerely wanted to know something about Fast from others.

It is also a good way to ensure that he doesn't reveal too much of anything in the future.

It doesn't matter if others see him, but it will be troublesome if Old Fast finds out that he is not his son.

Of course Doug had heard of Lorne.

Bad news like a scandal always spreads the fastest.

Lorne is a famous name in this area, but it's just not a nice word.

Doug was also an object of rejection, so he didn't care about the identity of Lorne's illegitimate son.

And through today's meeting, he had another level of speculation: Maybe Lorne was not the illegitimate son of Baron Fast, but the bastard of another powerful nobleman outside.

Otherwise, there is really no way to explain the elite guards around Lorne and the asymmetrical external rumors.

This kind of dirty deal is not uncommon news in the aristocratic circle.

As long as the person standing behind Lorne is strong enough, forcing Baron Fast to submit is simply an easy and pleasant thing.

It was not easy to identify Lorne, so how could Doug say those ugly words to make him angry.

Picking up some neutral sentences and processing them artistically, Doug said: "I have heard a little bit about it.

It is said that Sir Fast is always serious in doing things.

You are also open-minded and never argue with others.

In the aristocracy, He is definitely a model for everyone to learn from.”

He is said to be serious about his work because Fast is accustomed to doing things in a single-minded way.

The so-called open-minded person who does not argue with others is just because Fast felt guilty when facing other nobles, and from the bottom of his heart he did not dare to resist them
