Heliga's question made the two of them stunned for a moment. They were discussing some luxury items in full swing just now. I thought that this kind of talk and laughter would continue, but Heliga suddenly changed his conversation and pointed the topic to a certain nobleman.
"Um... that's right. By the way, I seemed to see you talking to him just now?" said one of the blond noble youths. "That person has always been like that."
"Is it always? It's hard to imagine. I think it would be difficult for him to continue the conversation if he personally talks about business with people. Is it possible that there are other people in his family? Is in charge of this matter, and he is in charge of some work like logistics and tidying up?"
"Um...this doesn't seem to be the case. I remember seeing him trading and negotiating with those outside suppliers a few times before." The blond nobleman showed a thoughtful expression, and then it seemed as if he had suddenly remembered something. , "By the way, I seem to have heard from the elders in the family... it is a rumor about Earl Hertha."
"What rumors?" Heliga asked eagerly, and then seemed to notice that he was a little too impatient. In order not to arouse suspicion, he coughed secretly, adjusted his expression, and pretended that he was just curious about such gossip rumors. Look like.
Fortunately, these two nobles were just like the performance they had encountered during their internship before. They were completely idiots. They didn't notice any unnaturalness in Heliga, let alone relax their vigilance. Heliga showed a keen interest, probably to please Heliga, the young master of the Haidu nobleman who seems to have a good relationship with Euses. The two naturally began to think desperately, "Ah, the elders seem to have sighed. Count Hertha was a very cheerful and talkative person when he was young. Originally, his family was the title of Viscount, but because of the contribution of Count Hertha and his father to Baryahat’s trade in trade, and what they did It has been here for nearly two hundred years-so the Duke of El Barrea raised his title to earl, and His Majesty the Emperor recognized this."
"Wait... Do you mean that Earl Hertha became like this after he became an earl?" Heliga heard what these two people meant.
"Yeah...but it's probably not very credible." The blond nobleman scratched his head and continued, "It was about seven or eight years ago... I can't remember the details. But he did. It looks very strange now, but it is said that at least it is still very credible in business. Apart from becoming bad words, there is no other problem, so slowly everyone does not care about this matter. Up."
"Seven or eight years ago... I hadn't left the circles around my hometown at that time, so there was no way to know what happened." Heliga shook her head and thought to herself, "But since I already know that he has gone "Paradise"-at that time, "Paradise" should have not been swept away by the organized forces, and it still exists somewhere in the world. "
What's more, Earl Hertha's personality has changed drastically since that time-referring to the things that "Paradise" has done for children who have suffered all kinds of suffering, I am afraid it is not unreasonable. If he remembers correctly, Joachim’s notes also seem to mention that "Paradise" will provide special services to those who come here, from all over the world, if it includes taking some special drugs. To enhance the physical pleasure--
"Um... Excuse me, is there anything wrong with what I said?" Seeing that Heliga's face began to change slightly, the blond nobleman seemed to be a little flustered.
"That's why I told you to stop talking nonsense." His companion gloated on the sidelines, "Such stories are just rumors at best."
"Yes..." Heliga recovered from his thoughts. The information provided by the two men may not be accurate, and they did say that it was just a possibility pieced together based on their own memories. If you want to confirm it further, "It's all rumors... But you are still very good at telling stories, and I was a little fascinated just now."
"Well... I think so." The man listened to Heliga's flattery and said triumphantly, "Speaking of which, how about telling us the story of Haidu? Is there something similar, such as urban legends? "
"Um... Haidu's words, it seems that there are very few rumors in this regard." Heliga carefully said something that he knew better, "If you have to say it, it is probably the Count Florard's house... ...?"
"Florard...this name, I remember it was a very famous nobleman in the Haidu area? Run a big trade-related company." The nobleman recalled.
"Yes... The Florards can be regarded as the treasury of Ordis-at least Duke Kane and the others said that." If Kane heard this, 80% of them would shout out "I didn't "Such words, Heliga thought, "However, it seems that the new type of chambers of commerce supported by the reformists, such as the existence of the "Klester" in the imperial capital, are currently suffering a considerable blow. Moreover, because the original Chu Lai city-state was merged into an autonomous prefecture by the imperial government, the trade routes were further restricted... how to say it, the earl’s family seems to have had a lot of trouble recently. "These rumors are naturally heard by Heliga from Alyssa's usual chatting-she and Florard's daughter Felis belong to the bag club and have a good relationship.
"It seems that I can't get more information." Heliga is a little regretful, but out of caution, and further questions, he is indeed not suitable to continue to ask-if he just pretends to be about rumors and gossip Very interested. In the subsequent dialogue, he was a little absent-minded, and finally slipped away after seeing other acquaintances as an excuse.
"Haha, it seems that you had a great time." While Heilija was walking among the other nobles and thinking about the next action plan, a bold voice suddenly came from his ear. Following the reputation, it turned out that it was Earl Goti, with a half glass of mead gently shaking in his hand, looking at himself in full bloom.
"Ah...Earl Gotti." Although it happened suddenly, Heliga didn't respond unnaturally. "I didn't see you here... In fact, I'm looking for Juss."
"He is probably chatting with others...Needless to say, Your Excellency Helmut, even Lord Rufas is looking at the whole situation from the sky at this time. The burden on Master Juss is not light." Count Gotti said.
"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility." Heliga said softly.
"Yes... Master Euses is not a person who is afraid of challenges... Rather, during the time he was in charge of the father-in-law for the time being, I didn't seem to see any difference from the time when His Excellency Helmut was here. Prosperity as always." Earl Gotti nodded, "But...just so, the Earl of Omansia just now was talking to me about you--"
These words of Earl Gotti made Heliga suddenly realize the nobleman who looked like an extraordinary temperament beside him-isn't this the person who spoke to Earl Hertha just now? Heliga thought to herself, it seemed that her guess was not wrong.
However, it seems that this person is much more difficult to deal with than the guy just now. Direct inquiry will inevitably arouse suspicion, even if it is a side attack, I am afraid it will be easily noticed by such characters-this time is more like a trap than chance.
"I admit that at the beginning, I really didn't know..." The man named Count of Amancia, with a faint smile on his face, proactively extended his hand to Heliga, "Saving the capital... even There are rumors that the hero who saved Galeria Fortress from fire and water... actually is here."
"Huh... Fortunately, I was not in a hurry to start." Hearing this, Heilijia couldn't help but secretly rejoice-the Count of Omancia, even knowing that the news that has been suppressed by the official media and intelligence agencies proves that his status is definitely not Same thing. In a sense, he seemed to be more familiar with things around this than Earl Goti.
"Um... what kind of rumors are that?" Heliga didn't admit it or rushed to deny it, but wanted to hear what the Earl of Omansia said. He politely responded to the other party's etiquette, reaching out and shook briefly.
"Where... what happened in the Galeria Fortress is a secret for the first time. I don't even know any details. I just know that some special class where Master Euses is involved is involved." The Count of Amancia said casually. "As for what happened in the imperial capital... I myself was on the scene at the time. To be honest, the scene at that time was really terrifying-Her Royal Highness was almost about to be taken away by the thieves."
"..." This guy is really difficult to deal with-Heliga thought, after this inquiry, not only did he fail to get any useful information, but the other party's reply made it even more impossible to respond. Was he really in "Notre Dame Park" at the time? I didn't have any impression of myself at all, and it was originally. At that time, my eyes were completely on the Empress Alfin, who was a direct threat to the terrorists.
"I know about our class VII...Haha, just now, in order not to get into trouble, when I talked with the noble colleagues here, I pretended to be Juses' classmates, but they came from other places." Heliga still decided to take the initiative-knowing the existence of Class VII, and seemingly knows a lot, this has already shown that this person is not simple, "It seems that the information network of the Count of Amancia really extends in all directions... No wonder Earl Gotti is called the double wall of the duke capital business."
"Haha...Where, how can I compare with Count Gotti?" Count Amancia laughed loudly. "It's just that I have a good relationship with Ching Rufas, one of the board of directors of your school-this matter. , He barely mentioned the involvement of Master Euses only when I was so soft and hard."
"That's it... It's a friend of Your Excellency Rufas. Speaking of it, Your Excellency Rufas, it seems that he is currently fighting with Duke Kane in the west to suppress the regular army there?"
"Yeah...the situation in the west is much fiercer than ours. The regular army there seems to have been pushed a little too hastily by the "Golden Rakshasa". Now it has entered the stage of desperate defense regardless of return. Regarding the fact that the output and input of their encirclement and suppression is terrible than efficiency, it seems that the offense is slightly hindered. "This time Earl Gotti interjected, "Because of this, our business will be slightly unsuccessful. "
"Yes... My hometown is also affected more or less." Helijia nodded, "The circulation of materials is not good... But fortunately, some mutual aid agreements have been signed with Ragram recently. Come and get better."
"Haha... Thanks for your hard work." Earl Goti smiled heartily, "After the war, trade and various restrictions on passage will be released again-by then, without the obstruction of reformers, the empire will surely be able to develop. Better."
Afterwards, there were some meaningless greetings and simple conversations-Count Gotti first praised Heliga and his father's inflexible stubbornness again to the Count of Omansia, and then it was nothing more than to talk to Thorz. More diligent words-and Heliga also responded with the polite words prepared before. In the end, Juss ended the conversation with the other nobles and came to "rescue" the entangled Heliga in a tacit understanding. The two came to the place where the Count Hertha was before—the Count Hertha himself is no longer there. There was a table left, and the snacks and drinks on it were barely moved. It was obvious that he had no intention of enjoying it at all.
"The Earl of Amancia... really an old fox." Heliga whispered to Juses, not letting others hear.
"He has a very good relationship with his brother... This is the first time I have heard of this. However, my brother does rarely tell me these things." Heliga briefly described the little information he had just received, which also made You Ciss was slightly surprised, "Maybe he also has some contacts with Earl Goti and their circle. After all, as an aristocratic leader, my brother is much better than me."
While the two young men were chatting with you and me, the Count of Amancia swept his gaze sharply toward this side, but he quickly shifted his gaze.
Your Royal HighnessHidden beside such a person? It was a little unexpected. Although I don't know if he has any bad intentions when he appears here this time, it seems that there is nothing special about it at the moment.
As for the matter that Rufas confessed-just in case, I'd better ask again, as confirmation. After all, the words just now are completely thorough and truthful, that is-he indeed, on the day of the attack on Midsummer Festival in the Imperial Capital, in the Saint Mary Park of the Imperial Capital, he witnessed the young man in front of him and directly used unknown power A scene of the monster torn to pieces.
Put aside other questions for the time being-that powerful force is genuine. Without absolute certainty, he did not dare to take risks at all.
