Chapter 810: Allegiance

If a person is betrayed by his master and his subordinates at the same time, and is exiled to another country, but there are still people willing to follow, either this person himself exudes an aura called 'Wang Bazhiqi', or this person's character should be not bad.

Obviously, Harold doesn't fall into the former, so I'll have to put him in the 'nice guys' category.

Actually, that's how I explained it to him, but it seems that this explanation not only did not comfort him, but on the contrary, it plunged him into deeper confusion.

From the pained look in his eyes, I could almost read it, probably because of what I just said, which reminded him of the fear of being sent a good guy card by a girl with a crush when he was a student.

Looking at Harold's confused and heartbroken expression, I finally couldn't hold back anymore and laughed a lot.

"What are you laughing at?" He wondered.

"I think you're a little more approachable than you normally are."

"Is there one?" He scratched his head.

"Of course," I smiled.

He laughed too.

After taking a sip of water, I asked him, "How do you feel about here?" ”

"How's that?"

"It's the humanities, the environment, the friendliness between neighbors, and so on."

"Not bad," Harold said, "Orcs are much more warm and affectionate than Terrans, that is, the dishes are simple, and meat is an indispensable thing for a meal." ”

He paused, lowered his voice and added, "There are no brothels and casinos here, it feels like a very clean country, and I don't accept the fact that I have to wrestle on everything." ”

I was happy: "What you said makes a lot of sense, I thought so at first, but since I've been winning, I've come to terms with it." ”

"By the way," I looked around and asked him, "What about the goat-man guy I wrestled with yesterday?" Didn't he come? ”

Harold smiled bitterly, "He's not from my guild at all. ”

"Oh~" I nodded, a little understanding the meaning of this: "Could it be that you want the guy from the sheep clan to join the guild, but he put forward the request of wrestling, so there was a very interesting scene yesterday, right?" ”

"Haha" Harold laughed self-deprecatingly, "You're right, that's exactly what happened, but it's a pity, I'm not his opponent, so I'll make you laugh." ”

"It's normal," I waved my hand: "Wrestling is originally a tradition of the orc race, they have been learning and training since they were young, you are a person who doesn't know anything and a guy who has already been through a hundred battles, and it is inevitable to lose." ”

"Listen to you, I did a good job yesterday, didn't I?"

"It's not bad," I said, "You can stalemate with that kind of guy for the first time, you are already very good, you can't be cultivated anymore, and you can dominate the wrestling world in Dasai City." ”

"I know you're complimenting me, but why do I always feel so awkward?" Harold muttered.

I hesitate.

......

......

After that, Harold and I talked for a long time about meaningless things, in fact, the main purpose was to express the feeling of 'friends haven't seen each other for a long time, and today I suddenly see each other, I must have a good calf'.

While chatting and slapping the calf, I asked Harold, "Do you have the confidence to rebuild the Guild of Valorant?" ”

"Although I don't have enough funds, I don't have enough charisma, and I have lost my high-ranking position, but I am also a warrior who has completed the task of fading, and it is inevitable that I will rebuild the guild back to its former glory."

Harold said confidently.

"What a guy with determination and will" I nodded and said, "Then how long do you think it will take to return to the glory of the past in the current situation of insufficient manpower and lack of east and west?" ”

"Probably...... Less than ten years" Harold looked embarrassed: "The most important thing at the moment is to recruit people and make money, without a sufficient number of guilds there is no way to carry out large-scale activities, and without savings, there is no way to maintain its normal operation on weekdays, as well as the necessary equipment and weapons for guild members." ”

"If money is assured, how long will it take you to regain your former glory?" I asked him.

"Money?" Harold thought for a moment: "It depends on how much money it is, if it is the amount of money that can maintain normal operation on weekdays, it can be completed in more than five years; If even the replenishment and consumption of weapons and equipment can be maintained, it will take about three and a half years; If you include the training of reserve personnel, it will only take less than two years. ”

"Two years?" I thought for a moment, "It's a bit long, but it's acceptable." ”

"You...... Anything to say? Harold asked, frowning.

"If, I mean if, I'll give you this money," I said lightly, "Will you be loyal to me?" ”

"Allegiance?" Harold's face changed: "Xiao Yi, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Answer my question," I said, "Yes, or no?" ”

After a long silence, he said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, Xiao Yi, I have sworn allegiance to Rodney. ”

"That is, you won't change your faith no matter what, will you?" I frowned slightly, displeased.

"Yes," he said earnestly, "I have already sworn and want me to change my vow, unless I am killed." ”

Call~

With a sigh of relief, I smiled again: "Don't be nervous, Harold, I'm just kidding." ”

"It's not funny," Harold said seriously.

"You're still so stubborn, haha," I laughed, "it's like a buffalo." ”

Harold was stunned, then laughed lightly.

"By the way, Harold," I asked him, "what about Rodney?" And what about his cousin and Jin Siqi? Why didn't I see any of them? Aren't they usually with you? ”

"No, they usually stay here with me, but today it happened that they went home first after brushing the monsters, and I was the only one who stayed here to take care of business."

"When are you done?" I asked him, "Take me to meet them when you're done, I haven't seen them for a long time, and I really miss those guys~"

"There's nothing more to do, let's go now," Harold said, "just right, they miss you too, especially Rodney, who usually talks about you when there's nothing to do." ”

"Cut, he's talking about my dry hair?" I shuddered, "I'm not interested in men. ”

After that, Harold got off work early and took me, Yuffie and Morris, and walked towards a small villa not far away.

On the way, I took out the call crystal and called Phoenix and Cagalli, the two girls were still on a shopping spree, I told them to buy something for themselves in a while and go back to eat, no need to wait for me, who expected the two girls to tell me with a smile that they had already eaten.

Well, co-authored Phoenix and Cagalli squandered my money, and it was so squandering that I still remembered them so much.

Thinking of this, a sense of sadness permeated my heart.
