Chapter 368: Miss Merry II.
The doubts in his heart, Dean did not show it again, but continued to listen to the Grand Duke's swordsmanship's account of Count Merry; And this narration did not stop until the Count Merry's mansion.
Dean looked up at the mansion in front of him.
Without too much decoration, there is naturally no sense of luxury, on the contrary, it is very simple.
Even compared to the mansion of Baron Tyre in memory, it is much worse.
However, this highlights the essence of its civilian origins.
After entering the hall of the mansion, Dean and the Grand Duke Swordsman waited quietly - Tom and the countess's guards rested on the other side.
A moment later-
Knock, knock, knock!
Heavy footsteps rang out.
The feeling of stepping on the ground and shaking the ground around him immediately caught Dean's attention.
It's a fat man.
He was the kind of man who was eight feet tall and had an eight foot waistline.
The first time he saw Earl Merry walking in, Dean had this impression in his heart.
The thick sideburns and beard cover part of the facial features, but the exposed eyes are blazing, and the wide nose is like thunder.
Hulong, Hulong!
As he walked, his breathing was unusually loud.
"Etrice!"
Count Merry greeted him, and his voice was as loud as if there was a muffled thunder in the sky, which made people's ears buzz.
"Lord Earl!"
The Grand Duke swordsman bowed and saluted, and then introduced Dean to the Earl in front of him: "Lord Earl." This is Dean. Willing. Zelgaon! ”
Count Merry with the introduction. And looked Dean up and down.
The same Dean. He also looked at the Earl Merry.
The looming aura of arrogance on the other party's body made Dean very careful - although it loomed and seemed unusually erratic, but once it was truly and thoroughly revealed, it was: gold level!
"Surely, it's somewhere between the silver pinnacle and the gold tier?"
Dean thought silently in his heart.
Dean, who has played against the gold level more than once, gave a clear judgment accordingly.
The Count Merry in front of him only needs to take another half step. It's a gold level that countless people can't reach.
Moreover, according to the accumulation of the other party, it is definitely not a new gold level, and it is far from the general 'new' gold level that can be compared.
"Very nice lad!"
Count Merry did not hide his evaluation, and after looking at Dean for a long time, he said directly.
"Is Merry alright?"
The Grand Duke Swordsman inquired about his friend's condition.
"Okay, almost, I just took the potion and I'm already asleep!"
At the mention of his daughter, the rough Count Merry, he suddenly softened.
Even the beard obscures the face. It's hard to hide the tenderness of being a father.
Of course, there is also a hint of concern.
"That's good!"
The Grand Duke swordsman let out a sigh.
The next half hour. It was the small talk between the Grand Duke Swordsman and Count Merry, because it was something that had happened recently in the three southern counties, Dean was naturally not too familiar with it, and rarely expressed his opinions, just sat on the sidelines, and only said a sentence when the Grand Duke Swordsman or Count Merry asked directly.
Afterwards, Count Merry worries about his daughter, and the conversation ends.
"Count Merry is such a good father!"
Grand Duke Swordsman and Dean walked side by side, and then, suddenly, he said.
"Hmm!"
Dean nodded, not overcommenting.
Because, he knew very well, this was not a very good topic - family affection in the aristocracy was thin, and for the sake of power and status, there were not a few cases of father and son killing each other, and brothers killing each other.
Even without these, in order to raise a suitable heir, that kind of Spartan education from an early age was enough to make Dean difficult to accept.
Although, he now bears the name of the heir of the Zelgang family.
In the same way, Dean understands that the Grand Duke Swordsman's childhood was not very happy—measured by ordinary markings.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have shown the lonely look he had at the moment.
"Dean, what is your father like?"
Grand Duke Swordsman asked.
"My father?"
This was the first time that the Grand Duke Swordsman had asked such a private question, Dean was not guarded, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he frowned and thought for a long time, but he didn't come up with a more standard answer.
"It's me who is abrupt! I shouldn't have ......"
The Grand Duke Swordsman gave an apologetic look.
"No, no, I just didn't think about it, how to say it!"
Dean waved his hand, and then, explaining, "When my memory was vague, it was difficult for me to see my father, and when I had a clear memory, my father had already passed away—in a magical reality, my father caused an explosion due to negligence!" ”
Dean said thoughtfully.
In order to concoct a perfect life story, he had to do this.
Luckily, there are such deeds in the origin of the body itself, which makes Dean a little easier.
"What about your mother?"
The Grand Duke Swordsman asked as if changing the subject.
"I don't know this, in my memory, mother, it seems that there is no zài!"
Dean said dryly.
This is the most authentic memory of the body he inherited, and it doesn't need to be made up.
"Oh, is that so?"
Grand Duke Swordsman nodded.
"Instructor, why are you asking about this?"
Dean looked at the Grand Duke Swordsman in front of him suspiciously, and suddenly, the latter's face turned red.
"No, nothing, I, I...... See you at dinner! ”
After a slight stammer, the Grand Duke Swordsman hurriedly ran away.
Dean stood there and frowned, he subconsciously thought of the conversation between Countess Katyu and the Grand Duke Swordsman when he left two days ago; Eventually, though, Dean shook his head. Walked to his room.
Because. Dean is clear. What you want to do.
And under this premise, some things cannot happen.
What's more, the Grand Duke swordsmanship is even more impossible, after all, the other party's. Sex. Dean's orientation is unusually clear.
……
When it was completely dark, Tom temporarily served as his attendant. Woke Dean up.
In fact, Dean had woken up moments before Tom knocked on the door.
With a strong physique, Dean became energetic after only three hours of sleep.
"Young Master!"
After bowing, Tom removed the teapot with hot water from the fireplace and poured it into the basin; Then, the dresses belonging to the Zelgang family are neatly hung on the hangers next to them.
That subtle movement is completely a 100% qualified entourage.
Dean nodded in satisfaction, then. Start washing and changing.
When the qiē was over, Dean walked out of the room first. Tom followed - the Earl of Merry's welcome dinner, although it was only a private family dinner, but some etiquette was still observed.
Especially Dean was involved for the first time.
And the Grand Duke Swordsman was much more casual, and he didn't change into a formal dress, but just changed into a clean white knight's uniform.
The Dagong swordsmanship, who was already pale and had delicate facial features, became more and more beautiful under the background of this white knight's uniform, especially the long silver-white hair, which showed an extraordinary luster under the lights.
The Grand Duke is like the legendary frost elf.
"Instructor!"
Dean said hello.
"Let's go, Dean!"
There was no longer the tension of the afternoon, and the Grand Duke Swordsman said calmly.
The banquet was not held in the hall of the Earl's Palace, but in a side hall in the backyard, and there were only four people in attendance, including Dean and the Grand Duke's swordsmanship.
Undoubtedly, this is a veritable family feast.
"Good evening, Lord Earl!"
Dean greeted Count Merry, who had already arrived, and at the same time, looked at the girl sitting next to Count Merry.
The long black hair is shawl, there are no accessories on the body, just a simple and simple pink and white long dress, and the clear collarbone makes the young lady look thinner and thinner, but it makes the other party's beautiful face have an extraordinary gentle temperament.
At this moment, the young lady's eyes were looking at Dean, and when she met Dean's scrupulous gaze, her slightly pale face showed a blush.
"Good evening, Miss Merry!"
Dean, who felt that he was a little rude, immediately bowed and greeted the other party.
"Hello, Lord Zelgaon!"
Miss Merry bowed in return, her voice as gentle as the other party's expression, with a faint softness.
"Take your seats!"
Count Merry said with a loud laugh.
The family dinner began, and the sumptuous food began to be put on the table.
In the meantime, Miss Merry had watched Dean, and from time to time whispered inquiring about things—mostly anecdotes from various places.
Dean was able to answer all he could.
If he can't answer, he also admits that he doesn't know-although he knows it well in his heart, but in order to fit this identity, there are some things, Dean did not answer wisely.
The dinner went on as Dean and Miss Merry talked.
During this period, Count Merry let out a loud laugh from time to time, and the Grand Duke Swordsman looked at his friend with a slightly strange look, and then, as if thinking of something, his face couldn't help but tighten.
"Merry, on Midsummer Night this year, His Highness will go to the Emerald Capital, do you want to go along?"
The Grand Duke Swordsman subconsciously inserted into it, and, staggered the topic.
"Dean, is your territory near the Emerald Capital?"
Miss Merry looked at Dean and asked.
"Yes!"
Dean nodded.
"Can I go to your place for the night?"
Miss Merry asked suddenly.
Suddenly, there was silence at the table.
Count Merry was surprised at first, and then looked at his daughter in surprise.
And the Grand Duke Swordsman clenched his sword and fork.
