200. The Truth About Binks' Tavern
As one of the most famous taverns and inns in Loomingen, Binks' Wine naturally has the best luxury rooms. But Sean and the others chose to live in just relatively clean ordinary rooms, and did not choose these luxurious rooms - not because they couldn't pay the rent, but because it was easy to attract the attention of others, which was seriously inconsistent with the principles of Sean and others who were ready to keep a low profile.
Sean's room is a room with good lighting, and compared to other ordinary rooms, this room has an extra window.
Outside the window on the right, there is a view of Shuk Street; Outside the window on the left, there is a view of Seventh Avenue.
This room happens to be the bevel of the intersection of the two streets of the tavern.
Originally, such a room was usually treated as a utility room or a public bath in a hotel. But Binks' Wine doesn't seem to have done that, and has carefully arranged the corner room, which is smaller than the other rooms, into a dormitory, and because of the light and arrangement, this obviously smaller single room charges the same as the other rooms on the second floor.
But even so, this room is the most booked room.
After all, for the price of a regular dormitory, you can experience the feeling of a third-floor luxury room, which is a very good deal for many people. The only pity is that this is only a single room, and the beds in the general dormitory are standard double beds, but because the mattress in the room is very comfortable, it is naturally not qualified to force anything.
Naturally, this room became Sean's room.
Because the layout of the room is small, the place where Sean and the others gather at this moment is not in his room, but in Alfred's room.
After Elekate's disguise, Alfred does not look like a middle-aged man now, and looks much younger than before in appearance. It's just that there is no way to change a person's temperament and eyes, so Alfred's body still exudes that sharp aura, but because he is wearing armor, he feels more like a young family knight who is responsible for protecting the safety of the young master.
Anno's situation is similar to Alfred's, if you just look at it from the appearance, it is easy to think that the two should be related by blood, after all, in addition to the difference in temperament and eyes on the body, the hair color, body shape, and appearance of the two are extremely similar. However, since Elekate was able to disguise Alfred as a young family knight, it was not difficult to disguise Anno as Alfred's sibling.
Two family knights of the Silver Realm. This is also very much in line with the aristocratic status that Elekate formulated for Sean.
A ruined aristocrat who lost his territory due to the decline of his family, but only retained his title of nobility and tried to revitalize his family.
Title, is a viscount.
However, in front of this title of nobility, there is a word to be added, honor.
Meaning: Although this title of nobility has been recognized and recognized by the Kingdom of Dabion, it can indeed be regarded as a member of the aristocratic system. But compared to the orthodox aristocracy. Sean's status as a noble title was promoted by commoners, merchants, and other identities because of doing things of greater significance to the kingdom. To put it simply, it is a lifelong nobleman who has no territory and only a title, and cannot pass this title to the next generation, but if you are lucky or have enough wealth, it is not impossible to obtain a territory or even turn the tenure system into a hereditary system.
Like Ruud. Mitchlin's family, that's it.
After three generations of investment and paving the way, his family finally made Ruud's father a baron. And then. In order to prosper his family, the old baron spent his whole life striving to become a field nobleman, until Rude was nine years old when he finally became a field nobleman, and then he continued to work hard to provide a better platform for his son. But it wasn't until the moment he lost his territory that he finally became a viscount because of his exploits, but after losing the meaning of his existence, the old baron also collapsed.
Fortunately, Ruud eventually reconciled with his father and chose to inherit the viscount title. And just when Rud was about to start from scratch again, Asuna also returned all the territories of the Dabion Kingdom, so Rud was able to become a local nobleman.
But now, Ruud. Michilyn was already a traitor to the kingdom of Dabion. And Ruud himself became the city lord of Void City and the acting administrator of Panda Territory, in the absence of Shaun and Neil, he has all the administrative power of Sean's entire territory, and is the rightful second-in-command of internal affairs in Sean's territory, only in terms of status and identity, he is a person who can be equal to Alfred and Rena.
But in any case, the title of honorary nobility may not be valued by the Hasteen family, but it will definitely be valued by the wealthy merchants in Lomminen City, especially such a young viscount, and there are two knights of the silver realm by his side, all of which are worthy of investment by these merchants.
In addition, Rena's identity has naturally been properly disguised, and she is now playing an unknown knight who has gone out to train, meaning a knight who does not belong to a family. Because of the reason why they fought off robbers together on the road, they temporarily traveled with Sean and others, and they are currently the object that Sean is trying to win over, and he is friends with Sean - this is also a safety bolt.
After all, gold-level powerhouses are already considered to be among the powerhouses in this world, and no matter which family they are, they will definitely not be too strong. Therefore, Sean has a great chance of being taken into the sight of the Hasteen family by virtue of the relationship that he is friends with Rena, and if there is no way to communicate with Rena privately, the Hasteen family must detour to Sean if they want to recruit Rena, then the final result must be in contact with Sean anyway.
Shephaneo, on the other hand, did not have the slightest disguise, this was a priest with a knife who traveled and preached by the way.
Of course, in terms of identity, he has naturally become the priest with a knife of the Ice Church - anyway, with Tiny's previous story and Sean's addition, Shephaneo is naturally not too unfamiliar with the Ice Church. At a time when the Church of Ice and Winter is not yet thoroughly known in the secular world, anyone's impression of the priesthood with a knife is naturally limited to the Church of Ice.
However, in this way, Sefanio naturally can't walk with Sean and the others on the front, she can only be used as a hole card hidden by Sean in his hand.
At this time, in Alfred's room, Sean sat on a chair and said in a deep voice, "This tavern is not as simple as it seems. ”
"Indeed." Alfred nodded, "As a tavern, but the influence seems to be a little unusual, this is indeed a noteworthy thing. …… Moreover, the body of that Binks IV has a very unusual aura. ”
"You feel it too?" Rena was a little surprised, "There is something special about him that can hide his aura, so he will hide his original aura." I speculate that this man named Binks IV is definitely also a powerhouse of the Golden Realm. ”
"If he weren't a powerhouse in the Golden Realm, I would be surprised." Sean smiled, "Zhilu said that he is a powerhouse in the Golden Realm, but I am much more relieved." ”
"For what?" This time, even Anno was surprised.
"Don't you notice that even those maids move skillfully?" Sean spoke again, "Their steps are very light, they walk quickly without making any sound, and their motor reflexes are very fast, remember what we saw when we went to the private room before?" …… A drunk man on the left almost knocked over a wine glass, but was caught by a waitress who was delivering food next to him. ”
Hearing Sean say this, everyone thought about it, and there was indeed such a scene, at that time, the other waitresses who saw the situation also laughed, but the waitress who took the wine glass was embarrassed.
"Now that I think about it, I suddenly understand that the reason why the other waitresses laughed was not because it was funny or anything, but because the waitress spilled a lot of wine when she caught the glass."
"This ......" Rena and Alfred had already reacted, with surprised expressions on their faces.
"Remember what Elekate said to us?" Sean continued, "In the private room, he said that 'the first skill that any member of the Thieves' Guild must master is stealth, which is already an instinctive behavior and habit, and it can't be considered a specialty at all', right? …… Now that I think of the walking habits and reflex speed of those waitresses, and the same mantra of 'oops, oops, oops', I have every reason to believe that this tavern is the branch of the Thieves' Guild set up in Tinchiin, which is the central system of the entire Tinchiin ward. ”
"If you analyze it...... "Anno said thoughtfully, "then didn't we give all that money for food?" ”
Alfred and Rena looked at Anno helplessly, this guy only showed extremely amazing ability when it came to the problem of eating.
"So what are we going to do now?" Alfred asked.
"According to the original plan." Sean said calmly, "Since he was recommended by Rupee, then we should trust our companions." ”
"In that case, when are we going to start?"
According to Sean's previous communication with Elekate, the two things that must be confirmed are obtaining the architectural blueprints of Hastings Manor and picking a noble target to choose to approach. Both of these things must be solved by Sean himself, in fact, it is not difficult to steal the architectural blueprints of Hastings Manor, of course, the people of the Thieves Guild can help solve it, but in this case, the risk will be much greater, so Sean decided to let Elekate provide the information, and they did it themselves.
As for the second thing, it was not at all difficult to steal the blueprints of Hasting's manor. (To be continued......)
PS: Hmm...... The book review area is deserted, and no one plays games and communicates together, which is a little boring.
