Chapter 321: Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone

Windmill Manor.

Lord Marcus was complaining to a fat pangolin: "Pange, can't you restrain your descendants from digging holes in the manor? If you want to dig holes in Jiandao Mountain, why are you always digging holes in the manor?" !”

This pangolin is his contracted fantasy beast - the Pangolin King.

As a fantasy beast with the characteristics of a beast king, Pangolin King Pange can naturally also command ordinary pangolins.

However, Pango ignored Marcus and just dug holes in the yard, which was his favorite thing to do.

Marcus was helpless.

Pange is the second phantom beast he contracted with. Perhaps because of his limited talent, or maybe because they are not compatible with each other, so far he has not been able to synchronize perfectly with Pange's mind. Naturally, he cannot advance to the third level of the phantom beast. knight.

He glanced at the distance and saw that the first phantom beast he had contracted, the steel thunder beast Ai Fen, was eating grass leisurely.

"It's better than Aifen. I never have to worry about it, and I still earn a lot of transportation fees for the manor every year." Marcus praised.

Every year when the warm season comes, especially in the hot summer, he will let Ai Fen lead a team of thunder beasts to pull carts and transport bulk goods.

The caravan's subsidy alone is higher than the manor's annual land harvest.

It can be said that the steel thunder beast Ai Fen is not only his contract partner, but also the family's most important money maker.

"Marcus, how many days can you rest at home this time?" His wife, Mrs. Safali, came over and asked.

"I don't know. Let's see when the Lord will summon the knights."

"Do you really have to go to the snowy fields to fight endlessly? Even if you have to work hard for three years, there is no need to work so hard." Mrs. Safali complained slightly, "Besides, you can take turns sending knights with the group, but you can't do the same Let’s fight with you for three years.”

"Okay, how many times have I told you not to question the adults' decisions!" Marcus frowned.

Mrs. Safali stopped talking about this topic, but changed the topic: "You have to worry about Malena's matter. The marriage with Salty Waterhole Manor should be finalized. If you delay for a few more years, Malena will become an old girl. ”

Marcus nodded: "I will take time as soon as possible to go to Stormrage City to discuss the marriage with Lord Minor."

Then he said: "You should also go to Fluorescent Castle more often and chat with the Baroness. If you can get the Baroness to match her, there will be no changes in the marriage, and Malena can graduate from Stormrage City Women's College with peace of mind."

"Mrs. Meryl is easy to talk to. She is definitely willing to match her. She has apologized to me several times for delaying Malena... Well, you said our Malena is so good, why can't Mr. Russell look down on her!"

"Don't mention that kid!" Marcus immediately turned cold, "Before she was promoted to the Phantom Beast Knight, she already looked down on Malena. Now that she has been promoted to the Phantom Beast Knight, her tail is raised to the sky, and she won't let anyone go. It’s in my eyes!”

"No, I think Russell is still very gentle. He is gentle and polite to everyone, even to the servants."

"It's just a disguise!" Marcus said with disdain as he was already deeply prejudiced against Russell. "I have watched this boy grow up. What kind of person is he? How can I still not know clearly? My Lord and Madam tried to persuade me several times, and I finally Consider letting him and Malena..."

Having said this, Marcus clenched his fists again: "If I hadn't considered your kindness, I would have beaten this kid long ago!"

"Marcus, be careful, don't act out of emotion, Russell is also a knight of fantasy beasts." Mrs. Safali said, "And he is a knight who is looked upon by the dragon. His future is limitless. Alas, it is also our Malena. Not so lucky."

"That's bullshit being watched by a giant dragon!" It was okay if his wife didn't say anything, but Marcus became even more angry when she mentioned it, "It's just a transformation into a fantasy beast knight, I only need to beat him for a few minutes! Maybe he will have a future, but that's Many years later!”

While the couple was talking, the housekeeper suddenly rushed over: "Master, Madam, Mr. Russell is here to visit with someone."

Mrs. Safali suddenly let out a cry: "Why is Master Russell here?"

Marcus also frowned: "How dare he come?"

The housekeeper naturally knew that his master was very unhappy with Russell because of Miss Malena, so he just said: "Your Excellency Russell and the few knights he brought are still waiting for the master and madam in the living room."

"Just let him wait." Marcus drank tea calmly.

But Mrs. Safali pulled him directly: "Okay, it's okay to be angry. It's rare for Mr. Russell to come to visit, so you can't lose your etiquette."

"Huh!" Marcus snorted, but he didn't insist anymore. He was pulled to his feet by his wife, and they went to the living room to greet Russell.

When they arrived in the living room, they saw Russell reading a handwritten newspaper in a leisurely manner.

"Master Russell." Mrs. Safali smiled enthusiastically.

Russell stood up and bowed: "Mrs. Safali, Mr. Marcus."

"What's the matter here?" Marcus asked nonchalantly. Even if his wife winked at him from the side, he still had a straight face and no trace of enthusiasm.

Seeing her husband's attitude, Mrs. Safali also had a headache, but she couldn't help but could only keep calling the servants to serve tea and snacks.

When the courtesy was over, Russell didn't talk nonsense.

With an indifferent smile, he said: "Sir Marcus, I came to visit today for only one thing."

"Say it."

"Sir Marcus, you have always been the second master in the Netherworld Valley, after my father. You are known as the Level 2 Advanced Fantasy Beast Knight, even in the volcanic oasis." Russell said with a smile, "And I I have made some gains recently, and I want to challenge you as a Level 1 Phantom Beast Knight!"

"Huh?" Marcus was stunned.

Then he was overjoyed: "Are you really going to challenge me?"

In his dream, he wanted to beat Russell violently, but after all, Russell was the second son of Baron Roman, so it was difficult to do so without sufficient reasons.

I never expected that one day, Russell would come to my door.

"This kid really knows how to care for people. I'm starting to like you a little bit, hahahahaha." Marcus laughed in his heart.

"Why do you have to challenge someone who is so good? Master Russell, why don't you stay in the manor for lunch first." Mrs. Safali also wanted to advise.

But he was directly interrupted by Marcus: "Okay, this is a challenge between knights, why are you, a woman, interfering with it!"

Then he looked at Russell: "Do you want to go all out or have a normal sparring? If it's a normal sparring, you should find someone else. I don't have so much free time to play house with you. There are many things in the manor and I don't have the energy to be a teacher."

Russell smiled: "Then attack with all your strength."

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Both of them had ulterior motives for this challenge. They immediately hit it off, put on their armors and swords, and came to the lawn in front of the small castle.

The weather is calm and sunny.

Behind Russell flew the unicorn Baoli, and behind Marcus stood the pangolin king Pango and the steel thunder beast Aifen.

"Father, Wan Sheng!" Marcus' son Musk has returned from school at the Knight Academy in the town.

"My lord, Wan Sheng." The knights under Marcus also came over after hearing the news and spoke out to cheer for their lord.

certainly.

Russell was not alone. Eric, Grove, and Katie all came with Russell.

Starting from Katie, everyone cheered for Russell: "Sir, Wan Sheng!"

Russell gently pulled out the green ceramic sword from his waist. As his strength continued to improve, the green ceramic sword with only one emerald inlaid was no longer worthy of his status as a knight of fantasy beasts, but it could still hold up. support.

"Sir Marcus, are you ready?"

Marcus was about to nod when he suddenly saw two more knights coming on horseback in the distance. He couldn't help but feel moved in his heart and suggested: "Sir Russell, why don't you wait a while? It's better to have fun alone than to have fun together. Wait until there are many spectators." Let’s fight again.”

His idea is simple.

He just hoped that Baron Roman would hear the sound and come over, and then personally witness Russell challenging him and being beaten up by him.

First, he could beat Russell upright.

Secondly, it was also a relief. After all, Marcus had some complaints against the Baron and his wife in his heart.

It was the Baron and his wife who insisted on marrying Marlena to Russell, but in the end, she was disliked by Russell and was completely embarrassed. You definitely can't get this face from the Baron and his wife, then you can only get it from Russell.

Russell didn't have similar thoughts, so he immediately nodded and said, "Okay!"

The two of them stood on the lawn like this, letting the sun shine on them, until a quarter of an hour later, a loud "chirp" dragon roar sounded.

Baron Roman arrived at the Windmill Manor riding a clay dragon.
