Chapter 221: heritage
The mansion of the Edward family is located in the new city of Thrace, which was an area expanded on the basis of the original castle after the establishment of Thrace.
Because the risk of war is not considered at all, the planning of the new city is more tidy and reasonable than the old city of the original castle. From a height, the buildings are separated by the streets, like neat squares. Close to the broad road are wealthy families and shops; relatively remote ones are ordinary families and villas of big families.
Edward House is located in a relatively remote area, and at first glance it seems to have a low status. But when he got to the door, the panda immediately saw the name.
At first glance, this mansion looks no different from the villa next to it, but in fact it has many names. If nothing else, just the fence surrounding the mansion hides a mystery.
He could clearly feel that these fences covered with green vines contained divine energy. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the seemingly meaningless small decorative pieces on the fences, forming a huge sacred circle. . The power of this magic circle is not very strong, but it can ensure that people in the circle will not be hurt by the curse, and will not fall into abnormal states such as madness. It can also make undead, demons and the like act out of disgust, which is very practical. .
"This house was acquired by the ancestor of our Edward family. He rescued a prince from the claws of a mad beast by coincidence during a hunt. Later, the prince became king and gave it to him. This mansion," James said. "Before that, our family lived outside the city—it would be a bit embarrassing for us to enter the city without permission."
He didn't shy about the origin of the family's illegitimate children, on the contrary, he seemed very relaxed. It could be seen that he really did not take this to heart.
In this regard, the panda nodded secretly. There is a saying that a man does not ask about his background, as long as he can make contributions and make achievements, what does his background matter?
In the future, James Thrace was well-known for his "crusade against the ice dragon". He was a famous dragon-slaying hero. In terms of fame, he was not necessarily better than "the Lion of Thrace" Richard. · Where is Thrace. If this world is not destroyed by the dragon of doom, after thousands of years, who is more famous.
There are far more kings who want to unify the world and start wars than heroes who destroy powerful dragons.
Jaime pushed open the fenced door and yelled, "Kent! Pristin! I'm back! I brought friends with me!"
The door of the mansion opened quickly, and a maid in simple and exquisite clothes walked out and said with a smile, "Young master, welcome back! I don't know what to call this gentleman?"
She is not very beautiful, but she has a quiet and indifferent temperament. Standing there, it gives people the feeling of being quiet and stable, very reliable. If you take a closer look, you can see that the corsage she wears is the emblem of the Edward family, and it is still emitting weak magical fluctuations.
The maids of the Edward family even have magic equipment!
Panda looked at her, then looked away and replied, "Just call me Panda."
He didn't say much because he was looking around curiously at the moment.
After entering the courtyard, he found that the mansion had traces of magic almost everywhere, and it could be seen that it had been carefully arranged. Although the layman can't detect it, in the eyes of an expert like him, it can be said to be a huge magical art exhibition.
Such a mansion, I don't know how much effort it took the designer, and how much it cost to build!
Although the life-saving grace is very heavy, it is indeed generous enough for the king to use such a mansion as a gift!
Just as he was talking, a middle-aged man in his forties walked out. He was wearing a tall and straight dress, his whole body was neat and tidy, and he couldn't find even a single piece of messy hair. With the rigorous look on his face, he could see that he was a serious and upright person.
"Master, you are finally back!" He looked very relieved and said with a smile, "I advised you before that if you want to make achievements, you don't need to go to the border... Anyway, just come back!"
James is obviously very close to these two people, and introduces them to Panda with a smile: "This is Kent, my housekeeper, since my grandfather's generation, his family has been our housekeeper, very capable and reliable... oh , In terms of competence and reliability, Pristin is of course no less, the head maid of our Edward family, but also a part-time teacher, helping the etiquette school to open maid education courses!"
Panda also smiled and greeted them.
As soon as they entered the door, a maid came over and helped them change out of their travel clothes that were not suitable for home use, and brought casual clothes to put on. The amazing thing is that the panda arrived at the beginning of Mingming, but the Edward family was able to come up with casual clothes that fit his figure immediately, which made him amazed.
What surprised him even more was in the back. When they came to the living room, they saw two chairs of different sizes next to the table in the living room. One was obviously much larger than the ordinary chair, so it was naturally prepared for him. of.
"Do you still have clothes and chairs suitable for me?" Panda asked curiously.
"There are many orcs living in Thrace. In order not to be disrespectful, we have prepared for all races and body types." Butler Kent replied.
Looking at his expression, it seems that this matter is very ordinary, and there is nothing to be proud of.
Panda estimated the cost and was speechless.
How much preparation does it take!
And...they can prepare what suits them with just a few words. The servants of the Edward family are really well-trained. If they go into the army, they must be the most elite soldiers, fully enough to be incorporated into the quick reaction force.
As soon as I sat down, a maid brought tea and fruit. The tea is fruit honey tea, the fruit is in season and the taste is very good.
Panda secretly admired—he was a little clueless. This kind of tea and fruit were the favorites of the bear clan, but the Edward clan was prepared even for this kind of thing.
The two sides chatted for a while, and James invited the panda to have lunch. Their family's lunch is not rich, vegetables, rice soup, bread, stewed meat, fruit, pastries, but the portion is not much, it can be seen that they are not the kind of meal that has to be put on twenty or thirty plates. The one who would rather waste in the end.
James didn't have the habit of "not eating", he said while eating, "You can stay at my house for a few days. The conditions at the mission's mansion are not very good. They have money, but they don't want to pay attention."
Panda didn't refuse. James's house was in good condition and living in his house was very comfortable.
When you go out, you can stay at a friend's house with good conditions, which is very good.
"By the way, Kent, Pristin, do you know that my friend is a dragon slaying hero!" James nodded and said to the butler standing next to him, "Serious dragon slayer He is not the kind of young knight who kills a flying dragon and brags about it for a long time!"
Butler Kent's always serious face showed a shocked expression, and the head maid on the other side opened her mouth slightly and looked at the panda in surprise.
Although they could see that pandas are highly skilled, they never expected that this simple-looking orc with strange hair and hair was actually a dragon slayer!
Each of the characters who can kill the giant dragon can be called earth-shattering. The extraordinary deeds and the easy-going appearance with a smile form a sharp contrast, which makes them feel a sense of non-display.
Of course they wouldn't doubt their young master, so they couldn't help but glance at the panda again.
"Master, you have finally made a really great friend!" Kent's butler said with relief.
James was a little embarrassed, laughed dryly, and said, "Those friends I used to have can't be considered bad."
"Of course they are not bad, but they are not more honored than their own family." The Kent housekeeper said, "And this Mr. Panda is different, he is more honorable than most families, and this honor belongs to him. Own."
Panda couldn't help nodding secretly, thinking that this housekeeper is really a talkative person.
James also nodded and said, "By the way, hasn't the shattered ice armor been borrowed yet?"
"No, no one can take even a straw from the Edward family without your permission!" Kent's butler replied solemnly.
James smiled: "That's good, then help me prepare a piece of equipment that can keep out the cold, maybe I'll need it soon."
Butler Kent nodded, and Pristin walked out.
By the time the lunch was over and Panda and James came back into the living room, she had returned with a ruby-encrusted bracelet. The bracelet was full of brilliance, and it was obviously a magic tool.
"This is a 'Phoenix bracelet'," she said. "The work that Master Parrotti has just completed is very effective in keeping out the cold."
Panda couldn't help being surprised.
From what James said before, it can be seen that the cold protection equipment is currently very popular, so that many well-known people have not been able to buy it, and have to borrow it from James.
But his maid went out of the door, and it took less than half an hour to get one back.
The depth and energy of the Edward family is truly shocking!
