"The singing of the nightingale sings through the quiet woods and floats towards you."
In the serenity song of the bard's tenderness, Lucian left the bar, slowly walked across from the three adventurers, and startled the linen-haired half-elf girl who was drunk in the music, Back straight up.
"Dear guest, do you want to hire us?" The mature and chalky half-elf lady gently patted the wine table in front of her and asked funnyly.
Although she, like other adventurers, thinks that Lucien is a runaway aristocratic master who has been poisoned by Knight novels, with a slight banter in her smile, she is polite on the surface, because this teenager has always been generous and is an employer. One of the best choices, no one will hate Kintal.
Kushiro nodded in a hurry: "I'm going to Corse City, I don't know if the three are willing to accept employment?"
Ms. Half-Elf seems to be responsible for communicating with the employer. She smiled and pointed to herself and the two next to her: "I'm Joanna, a two-handed sword warrior, and a high-level knight servant. This is my husband. The sword and shield warrior Simon also has the level of high-level knights. This is my sister Betty, an excellent archer, no worse than us. So, respectful guests, it is not cheap to hire us. Of course, our reputation has always been Yes, unlike some guys whose employers always like to disappear, you can ask Uncle Hanson for this. "
Hansen is the tavern owner and the head of the local adventurer's guild.
Joanna did not lower her voice. For a moment, some of the adventurers and mercenaries in the tavern's face became very bad, but the strength of Simon and the three of them was obvious to all in the local area, and the team was very reasonable, except for the Cavaliers. The strongest of the ranks, otherwise at least three times the risk-taking will dare to fight their ideas.
"Go to Corse City? That's great. I heard that a talented musician, Bert, is going to a concert in Corse City, and is looking for a chance to go back." Lucian hadn't answered the half-elf girl yet. Betty froze with great joy, causing her sister to glance at her with a fierce glance at her side. This little kid was always unable to understand the situation, but now is the crucial time for bargaining. In the case of limited conditions, music that can be transmitted through bards is a common way of entertainment rarely seen by ordinary people in this world. Other circus X operas require specific times. This is why musicians are widely welcomed, although they do not bring much benefit to musicians.
Betty was glared by her sister's beautiful eyes before she knew she had made a mistake. She quietly spit out her tongue and closed her mouth. She looked expectantly at Lucian's linen-colored eyes, and her half-length ears shook slightly.
"I don't know how much you need to pay?" Lucian asked, not paying much attention, although he spent a lot of money on the way because of food and so on. . Besides, there is really a lack of money to find a big city to hold a concert and become rich again. That's the benefit of being a famous musician.
Alas, it turned out that the rich young aristocrat, Joanna, narrowed her eyes slightly, wondering, and wondering what the price would be better.
Erhai personal one silver narr. "Seeing his wife hesitant, Simon with short brown hair and lean and strong smiled and answered on her behalf.
Joanna couldn't help but stare at her husband and asked him with his eyes, how could it be the same as usual? Are you as stupid as Betty? !!
Simon hung his shield and sword on the small hook behind the leather armor: "I don't want to destroy the credibility we have built up after years of hard work, which is recorded in the guild. By the way, the only requirement for the respected guests is The daily remuneration is paid daily, at the same time directly to me, not to Betty. She always does not know how to cherish money, we have to help her get up and wait to return to Korser City for regular knight training. "
At the chalk house in the middle and southern part of the Great Chalk Land, the rundown aristocrats are not as decent as those of Aalto, so the free knight training to cultivate their loyal servants has become a way to make chalk money. Of course, this also gives ordinary people more opportunities. After all, in the state chalk homes in the north such as Aalto, ordinary people can only pass the assessment of the knights if they want to perform regular knight training, and money has little effect.
Betty looked at her sister and brother-in-law poorly, but she could only shake her head relentlessly in the past.
Seeing that they were only half the price of Aalto's counterparts, Balussian pointed to the bar: "Let's sign a contract."
With the guarantee of the adventurer's guild, the chance of problems will be greatly reduced.
At the bar counter, Lucian handed identification and identification documents to the tavern owner Hansen, asking him to identify the authenticity and draft the contract.
"Happy to serve you, respected guests." Hanson said, smiling and taking two documents, but he took a closer look, his expression immediately became weird, but he is not young and has a wealth of life experience, very I was ashamed of the surprise, and did not attract anyone's attention.
Han Hansen lowered his head, looked at it carefully a few times, then checked the divine imprint, and then smiled more politely, "I have no problem with your identity document. I will draft a contract for you immediately, Mr. Evans."
He has a little excitement, from the excitement that he can show off to his grandchildren later: "Hey, grandpa and my pub have been here ... a big man ... that's Lucian Evans, a famous musician on the Great Chalkland."
The contract was quickly drafted. After the two sides saw no problem, Lucian took the lead to sign his own name and stamp it.
Joanna took the contract and three pre-paid silver narres, looked at the seal, and then stamped her handprint.
"You are such a generous gentleman. By the way, is it okay to call you Mr. Evans directly?" Joanna asked with a polite smile, her family was illiterate.
Balussian nodded gently, "Yes."
When Betty saw the contract signed, she smiled brightly and said, "You are also Mr. Evans? Oh, he has the same last name as Aalto's talented musician Lucis Evans. He is my favorite musician, talented and young and handsome! Listen! He said that he was travelling around the Great Chalkland to collect his style and wondered if he would come to Djibouti. "His face looked longingly.
"Why can't that big musician come to a remote and poor country chalk home like Djibouti." Joanna shattered her sister's fantasy while educating her without losing the opportunity. "If you can stimulate blood power after receiving regular knight training, you can Go and apply to join the Violet Knights, and then our family will move to Aalto. "
Balussian asked funnyly: "Betty Little Chalk, how do you know that Mr. Lucifer Evans is young and handsome?"
"That's what bards say." Betty regained her spirits a little disappointed.
Outside the Longya Tavern, Lucien was preparing to get in a carriage.
"Wait, wait!" A young man came quickly:
He was in his twenties, wearing a white flowing robe, with long blond hair and blue eyes, neat facial features, and a light smile on the corner of his mouth. ? I'm willing to pay a third of my salary. "
Because the price of hiring adventurers and mercenaries is not cheap, many people choose to join others' teams, so they only pay part of the reward.
"Sir, you don't look like you are short of money. Why don't you hire yourself?" Lucian has also accepted many similar travelers during his three-month trip, and his eyes have become nasty.
Joanna, Simon and Betty didn't intervene, because they don't earn a bit more.
The young man replied calmly: "The tavern owner Hansen told me that Simon has the best reputation, the strongest strength, and the other adventurers are rude and rude, so I want to join your team, Mr. Evans."
"What are you going to Korser City?" Lucian asked.
The young man came up with his identity document: "I went to the Musician's Association of Coser City, uh, to learn chalk music." Modest and restrained.
"Musicians are like ... Boss Wise, I do n’t know if Chuan Sihan turned over his identity documents. Considering that he is a musician, he nodded." Mr. Wise, you are welcome to join the team, but I am personal I'm in a bad state and need to be quiet and sleep, so try not to disturb me. "
Wise smiled slightly: "Of course, I also like quiet. Only quiet can be full of inspiration."
"Mr. Wise, are you going to the Korser City Musician Association? Are you a musician?" Betty heard about the topic she was interested in, and when Lucian agreed, she immediately asked Wise in a frantic manner.
Wise laughed modestly: "I'm just learning chalk music."
"That's great too, have you ever heard" For Sylvia "? What do you think of it?" Betty ignored the anger of her sister and cheerfully discussed music with Wise until the carriage was ready to go.
Wise stepped onto the carriage and smiled lightly at Lucien: "The little girl is really enthusiastic, but I don't really know music well."
"I don't understand too Lucian smiled perfunctoryly, then closed his eyes, and then started his own magic analysis.
But at this time, another traveler asked to join the team. She was an ordinary lady in her thirties with a baby. Her expression was calm and gentle: "Hello, Mr. Evans. My name is Lina and I am going to Longya The foggy town in the middle of the town and the city of Kosser, I will bear your own costs if I can join your team. "
Seeing that Ms. Lina was carrying her baby, Lucian agreed to take her in a carriage, only slightly surprised that she had children at such an age.
The carriage was slowly moving, Simon was ahead, and Joanna and Betty followed each other.
I just came out of the town, and a short man who seemed to have the blood of Confucianism followed.
Joanna warned with a dangerous smile, "Chris, do you need our protection?"
"Haha, I'm back to Koser City, just on the same road as you. Joanna, waiting for you to save enough money, you can let Betty follow me to train knights, but I coached a good teacher of a real knight!" Ke Reese shouted loudly, "As long as I can inspire blood or have enough money, I can immediately restore the honor of the home chalk family and regain the title of Lord."
看着 He looked at the carriage while showing off, but there was no movement in it.
The hot sun shone, and the carriage settled smoothly on the rugged road covered with dust and dirt in the direction of Coser City.
