"Count Deta, little Rose, Dean, here!"

The old butler led the way, passing through the gates of the castle, the cloister, and the two barracks, and stopped in a corridor - this was certainly not the study of the Emerald Grand Duke.

It's just a small conference room.

"Your Highness has left you with the information that Little Rose has about the Pirate Alliance...... Dean, you can check it out too! ”

The old butler said.

He didn't think of Dean as an outsider in the slightest.

The old woman sat quietly on the side, holding a cup of black tea from the old butler, obviously, she had already read this information.

It took about ten minutes for the Grand Duke Swordsman to read the information and handed it to Dean.

After Dean took the information, he began to read it carefully, and then, Dean divided the entire information into three parts.

First, there are two hijacked chambers of commerce.

One is the Locke Chamber of Commerce, and the other is the Sailing Chamber of Commerce.

The former was a petty aristocracy, while the latter was a simple merchant organization.

The two have no special connection, and they have always been at peace with each other, so the possibility of uniting with pirates can be ruled out for the time being.

Secondly, after investigation, the person who delivered the letter was a thief from Southport County.

It's the guy who took a risk after receiving a large amount of Kimpton.

At this time, he was already locked up in the dungeon of the ancient castle.

Last but not least, this morning, rumors began to circulate in Southport County that the former Pirate King was not dead, but only seriously injured. And now the injuries are healed to deal with it. It's time to gallop through the sea again.

And because of this rumor. The Jade Grand Duke will take it to sea.

After all, if this rumor is allowed to circulate, it is difficult to guarantee that the so-called Pirate Alliance will actually resurrect.

And the way to break the rumors is to find the source - the pirate king!

Let's see if the other party is really not dead from the serious injuries as rumored, or if someone is pretending!

Dean handed over the finished materials to the old butler again, and then. Sitting back in the same position-

"Dean, what do you think?"

The old woman, who had been drinking tea, suddenly spoke.

"Where?"

Faced with this kind of question, which obviously had the meaning of an examination, Dean did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

Although this is not a battle between life and death, Dean knows very well that this is another test after the 'Flame Orchid' test of force.

A test of unexpected events mixed with observation and wisdom.

To put it simply, it's a test of ability.

If you don't get through guò this time. Then he can only be cultivated as a high-end combat force - for this result, Dean is not averse. On the contrary, if there was no Blood Moon War, he would gladly see such a situation.

However, it is precisely because of the Blood Moon War that he needs to prove that he is not only suitable for a 'fighting general', but also capable of being a 'commander'.

"Oh, Dean, do you have a lot of opinions? I'd love to hear about it! ”

The old woman looked at Dean in surprise, and then, instinctively, asked.

The old housekeeper on the side was also a little surprised, but the next moment, the old housekeeper said with an encouraging smile: "Let's talk about it in detail, don't worry, young people are at fault, it's not that young people are wrong, it's just because of experience!" ”

Obviously, this is a benevolent old man.

He's setting the stage for Dean's possible mistakes.

And the Grand Duke Swordsman, who has been with Dean for the longest time, has a plain face - she knows quite well what kind of ability Dean has in addition to his own talent and strength.

After smiling gratefully at the old butler, Dean said slowly-

"First of all, where the rumors come from, I don't think a rumor that has not been fermented will become known to the whole city in a day!"

"Secondly, it is too early to judge whether the thief who delivered the letter or not took the risk for the sake of recklessness!"

"Finally, I think those two chambers of commerce should be checked more carefully!"

When Dean had finished speaking, the old butler nodded appreciatively, indicating that Dean was right.

This is not an overly exaggerated boast, but just a well-deserved compliment for the cautious attitude of a nineteen-year-old young man.

The old woman, however, was extremely harsh, and even asked with contempt in her words: "Of course I will send someone to find the source of the rumors—but, in the face of the taverns, restaurants, and inns of the whole South Harbor, shall I not be able to arrest them all?" And the thief who delivered the letter, who went through that kind of torture, I don't think he would have lied! As for the last point you mentioned, the Locke Chamber of Commerce is the foundation of the Locke family, and the same is true of the Sailing Chamber of Commerce, and besides, they have been in Southport for more than fifty years, and there is no way that they will be spies of the Pirate Alliance! ”

"All of them back? No, not at all, we just need to find the teacup in it, and the thief's interrogation can be done in another way, as for the two chambers of commerce, the merchant is profit-seeking, as long as he has a higher interest, they can sell a qiē - that's my opinion, or...... Do you think what I said was wrong? ”

Dean looked at the old woman with a smile.

"It's not wrong, it's just that I don't think you can do it!"

The old woman said with a smile.

"I can't do it? Please tell us more about what you mean! ”

Dean's eyes narrowed, and he did not lose his mind in the slight sarcasm of the other party, but looked at the old woman with a very calm gaze.

"I'm missing a man here - I think you're a good fit, Dean! It's easy to speak, but if you just say it and don't do it, it's all nothing, it's all empty, and I think you should show what you say with actual actions! ”

The old woman's agitation continued.

"Actual actions to show? Why should I do this? ”

Dean looked at the old woman and shrugged his shoulders at all.

"Are you worried about failure?"

The old woman's words sank.

"No, no, you didn't understand what I meant—did you know that I had just gotten a new name?"

Dean asked with a smile.

"'Duel Butcher'?"

The old woman was stunned.

"yes. Nothing good for the good. I won't do it! ”

Dean nodded.

"Serve Your Highness. Also for the benefit? ”

The old woman sneered.

"No, no, it's not for Your Highness's allegiance, it's for you to ask me to do it—if Your Highness had ordered me, of course I wouldn't have said anything, but you?"

Dean smiled and didn't continue.

But the meaning couldn't be more obvious – are you qualified? Or what qualifications do you have to assign me to do such a thing?

"Good! Good! Good! ”

The old woman, who had apparently understood the meaning of Dean's words, looked at Dean with a smile of rage. Stretch out your finger and point in the direction.

"Then I'll give you a good deal - a conspiracy is brewing within the Seymour family for the position of head of the family...... If you can find a useful clue in this Pirate Alliance incident, I will tell you the truth! ”

The old woman restrained her anger and said slowly.

"There's a conspiracy in the Seymour family about the head of the family?"

When Dean heard this, a glint flashed in his squinted eyes, and he laughed lowly: "So, can I understand that this matter is inextricably linked to you?" ”

"Take your guess!"

The old woman picked up the teacup and did not explain at all.

"Still. What does this have to do with me? ”

Dean leaned back, then. said lightly: "It's not that you think that if I am Zelgaon, I should accept the Seymour United Family, right?" If that's what you're thinking, then I need to consider whether the rumors about you are true - my grandfather's generation left here and entered the Emerald Mountains, where my family's 'ancestral home' is still located! There, it's Zelgaon's qiē, not here! ”

With an armed fleet, Dean was naturally greedy for the seamanship of the Seymour family.

But Dean knew better that with the name of a 'Zelgaon', he couldn't get anything at all.

The name of the Frost Elves has long since disappeared with their disappearance.

The Queen of Frost is no exception!

Although the so-called frost aristocracy still exists, Dean, who has seen the notes in the 'ancestral house' of Zelgaon, is naturally clear about the attitude of the frost royal family.

If these frost nobles really had a trace of awe, then it wouldn't be Zelgaon's 'ancestral home'!

Therefore, Dean, who wanted to obtain that seamanship, was not so naïve as to exchange it for a name that was ethereal in Snow Dance.

"What more do you want?"

The old woman asked.

"I want to set the instructor 'free' - I want you to stop meddling in the instructor's affairs and let her have the right to choose for herself, rather than letting the family make the decision!"

Dean said slowly.

"Dean!"

The Grand Duke swordsman on the side was immediately stunned, and subconsciously exclaimed.

"I'd love to hear from you, but if there's a chance to solve a problem - I think I'll do it for you...... You are a kind man who cannot do such a thing; However, if I'm a 'butcher', I naturally don't have any worries! ”

Dean smiled and looked at the Grand Duke Swordsman.

"I'm grateful for what you've done for Etres, but what are you prepared to give? I don't think it's too light to be able to lean on top of Tracey! ”

The old woman looked at Dean with sharp eyes, and the momentum belonging to the silver level began to burst out.

"The instructor is 'free' at all times, and I have no intention of taking the instructor as a bet, but I have not corrected your thoughts - the value of a silver-level powerhouse is difficult to estimate, but I am willing to make a commitment for this, a promise that does not violate my bottom line and beliefs!"

Under the breath of the old woman, Dean had no effect.

"One of your promises......"

"Yes, one of my promises, a lifelong promise - I'm nineteen now, at what age do you think I'll reach the gold level?"

Dean interrupted the old woman's sneer, and he added slowly.

Suddenly, the entire conference room was silent because of Dean's words.
