It is a very simple room.

A bed, a desk, a chair, a wardrobe, nothing else, not even a carpet that should have been on the floor, not to mention lighting and other decorations like magic lamps, the only illumination being a candle on the desk.

However, although the room is a little too simple and unpretentious, it is very clean, and it is clear that it belongs to the kind that has been cleaned for a long time.

This is the master bedroom of Lord Sean in the Black Swan Castle.

In terms of Sean's status alone, this room is definitely not worthy of Sean.

Because in this world where nobles are to show off their privileges and wealth, if other nobles find out that Sean's residence is actually like this, then this matter will definitely become a joke in the entire aristocratic circle, and even become an excuse to question Sean's wealth, ability, and credit. This is also the reason why other people with noble titles still insist on putting on a pomp that matches their status, even if they are bankrupt.

In the world of nobility, bankruptcy does not mean losing everything, but if you, as a nobleman, can't even do the superficial work of maintaining your status symbol, then even if you have a noble title, no one will take care of you.

Of course Sean understands these unspoken rules, but does he need to care?

Not to mention that the funds in the current territory are not allowed to be used for meaningless things such as decorating the Black Swan Castle, even if he has money, Sean does not plan to spend a lot of money on the Black Swan Castle. Because at the beginning of the Black Swan Castle, Sean only came to the underground sacrificial platform, but now this sacrificial platform has been uprooted by Andrew, so the Black Swan Castle has lost its corresponding value, after all, as a castle, the Black Swan Castle was not built on the scale of defending castles or fortresses. So in terms of defensive capabilities, the Black Swan Castle is not too outstanding.

And the most important thing is that the Black Swan Castle is a half-mountain castle, and there was no such thing as a retreat at all when it was built, so once the enemy hit the castle, then there is really no way out.

A castle that has lost its value, has no outstanding defense capabilities and retreats, and is purely symbolic, is certainly not worth Sean's spending a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to prop up the façade.

Besides, Sean is only a knighthood now. In the system of aristocratic circles, knights cannot be considered nobles at all. And once he becomes a formal nobleman, judging from the ability and territory that Sean is showing now, it may not be a problem to take a marquis with a strength prefix, even if he is not a strong earl, he will definitely not be able to escape. So since he is a powerful nobleman, do you still need those false façade methods?

Now. Sean sat down in a chair next to his desk.

"How's Sheena doing?"

"It's completely stable." Cecilia sat on the bed. Because there is really no other place to sit in the room, "The burden of the sixth-level demonic beast is really beyond the capacity of Sheena, and if there is no Andrew, the consequences are really difficult to predict." ”

Sean nodded slightly.

It's not that difficult to sign a magic contract, but it's usually a master-servant contract. It is a type of forced contract. However, equal contracts such as cooperation contracts and life and death contracts require more careful preparation, and usually the strength of both parties who sign the contract will be very similar. But Sheena is still just a little girl now, and she even has the strength of a first-order profession. However, the sixth-level demonic beast is equivalent to the strength of the lower gold, and with such a huge difference in strength, Xina naturally can't bear the amount of strength that the Cold Spider Queen has fed back.

However, this plan itself was proposed by Andrew, and Andrew was also present to assist when the contract was signed, so Sean was actually very optimistic about the outcome from the beginning, but the danger of the process was still a little beyond his imagination.

Sheena was in a near-death state at one point.

In the end, the only way to deal with it was to rely on the chain seal to forcibly suppress the power of the Cold Spider Queen's power riot, which saved Hina's life.

At this time, Sheena had also been sent back to her room to rest, Alfred was accompanying her, and Andrew left first because the matter had been resolved. Now, Sean and Cecilia are talking about the aftermath and how to arrange Sheena in the future.

In the history of the Miracle Continent, no one has ever been able to sign a contract with the Spider Queen, even if it is an underground demon, they can only curry favor with the Spider Queen through means such as sacrifices, or capture the Crypt Spider by more extreme means to cultivate a powerful Spider Knight. And Sheena's current actions are not to say that they are unprecedented, but they are definitely unprecedented, because there has never been a crypt spider that can be born by oviparity, let alone the queen of the crypt spider.

But now Sheena has signed an equal contract with a Crypt Spider Queen, and in a way, Sheena is equivalent to having control of this Crypt Spider Race. And the benefits that Sheena has obtained are not only these, through the strength given back by the Crypt Cold Spider Queen, now Hina's body has also been greatly improved, and becoming a low-ranking golden powerhouse is definitely not a problem.

"Have you already determined that she doesn't have the talent of a magician?" Sean asked.

"Nope." Cecilia sighed helplessly, "If she has to become a magician, she will barely become an ordinary magician in the future." ”

Hearing this, Sean smiled, and then said, "It seems that little Sheena is lucky." ”

"Yes." Cecilia is also very happy when she thinks of Sheena's current situation, after all, she is a companion who came to this strange land from Tindes, and Cecilia does regard Sheena as her sister, so of course she is extremely nervous about Sheena's future.

Through a series of evaluations before, it has been determined that Sheena is not suitable for becoming an internal affairs talent, of course, this is not absolute, as long as you are willing to work hard and give more time than others, then you can still be suitable for the position of city lord, but this is the limit of Sheena. It is precisely because of this that Sean wants to make Sheena a magician or a warrior, these two ways out are much faster than the previous one to become an internal affairs talent, but what is unexpected is that Sheena also has no talent in this area.

If you continue to learn magic knowledge, you can only become a magician at most, but the third-order profession of the lower bronze is really worthless. And if you want to become a warrior, because of Shena's own bloodline and her body, which has been significantly weaker than ordinary since she was a child, her highest achievement is probably to stop at the lower silver, and even the back of her father Alfred can't catch up.

Although as a relative of Sean's first followers, Sheena will not even know anything, as long as Sean still has a bite to eat, she will definitely not go hungry to Sheena. But Alfred still felt a little sad from the bottom of his heart about such a result, after all, what parent doesn't want their children to get ahead? Alfred certainly didn't want his daughter to be just a beautiful vase if he had a choice.

Fortunately, this rather difficult situation has changed completely because of Andrew's proposal.

Even if Hina doesn't do anything, as long as she grows older and her body develops, she can become a low-ranking golden powerhouse around the age of thirty. But if Xena is willing to cultivate hard, maybe this process can be advanced by more than ten years, and even future achievements will definitely not stop at the next golden powerhouse.

"I'll put Rena in charge of teaching Sheena."

"Yes." Cecilia nodded in response.

Now Rena is already the strongest person in the Sean Territory, so it is naturally the most reassuring thing for her to be responsible for teaching Sheena's words. Moreover, Rena is a knight, and the Crypt Spider is also one of the most suitable mounts to become a cavalry in the underworld, in a sense, Sheena is also destined to become a knight in the future, so Rena is naturally the most suitable person to teach Sheena.

When these things that can be regarded as serious things are resolved, Sean also gossiped with Cecilia, and at this time Sean found out that Cecilia has not been wasted during this time, and she now has several more kinds of magic, two of which even belong to the category of high-level magic, which makes Cecilia inevitably able to exert stronger combat effectiveness in the upcoming war.

However, Cecilia alone is still too limited in what she can do in the upcoming war. After all, Sean as a provocative opponent of the war is the Nugus family, which is one of the five powerful dukes of the Dabiang Kingdom, with the background of the Nugus family, even if there is no priest group, there is no problem to get a mage group out, and the Mage Guild has always been very generous in this regard, of course, the premise is to have money.

However, there is no Mage Guild in Sean's current territory, and it is obvious that in the assessment of the Mage Guild, they still do not believe in Sean's strength and the future of the territory. However, based on Sean's previous troubles with the Mage Guild in Ting Qi Yin Ling, if the people of the Mage Guild were to know about it, I am afraid they would definitely not be willing to help Sean - even if Sean had more money.

So Sean found that it was also imperative to cultivate a group of mages within the territory that was entirely his own.

Otherwise, once the war turns into a national war, then the strength of the army under his command will not have any advantage at all, which is unacceptable to Sean. Thinking of this, Sean suddenly remembered that among the territorial tasks he had completed before, there was still a lottery chance that was useless, and in the award, he also clearly remembered that there was such a reward as "army", if he was lucky enough to draw a mage group, this help was definitely not small.

Thinking of this, Sean immediately called out the lottery system. (To be continued......)
