Blood of Mercury

When Robert finally found "Miss Hurland", she was cooking porridge for the toilers polluted by magic dust in front of the Iron Curtain Wizarding Inn. Please search () to see the most complete! fastest update

"No...not porridge." Robert sniffed lightly.

This smell, seems to be in the broth?

"Miss Hellland! What are you doing!"

Robert stood on tiptoe and raised his head, shouting loudly.

But "Miss Hurland" was already surrounded by layers of people. Although she heard Robert's call, she could only turn her head and show an apologetic smile at Robert.

Robert frowned.

Cooking porridge in the ghetto is a customary thing in the aristocratic circles of the countries around Banza. If it is held every once in a while, it can not only enhance the stability of the territory, but also show enough kindness.

However, Shi broth is different.

In the circle of Bansa aristocrats who value tradition, they insist that the principle of "distinguishing superiority and inferiority" must be applied to every detail of life. This also includes food and building scale and so on.

"If you don't know how to be humble, you don't know how to fear—"

When Banza founded the country, Thiel's famous words were engraved on the inside of the crown and passed down from generation to generation as Banza's national training.

The nobles of Banza have educated their subjects well and learned the essence of this sentence from various directions. In fact, they even think they are being nice to them.

Monsieville is kind, and the War Church will distribute white bread and milk to the poor during festivals. These two things exist as "sacred food" and "sacred drink" in the teachings of the gods of the Tyre family. They are eaten by priests on a daily basis, making the priests of the Tyre family become tall and strong. , Delicate skin and bright eyes.

However, once those lowly poor people eat these foods blessed by God, they are prone to diarrhea. This even made the nobles of Banza believe that the lowly blood could not touch the noble things.

The lower goes down, the upper goes up, and there is a clear distinction between the superior and the inferior.

Strict hierarchy concept, strong centripetal force based on national pride and belief in national unity. This is the foundation of Banza's nation. Caral, as part of the split from Banza, naturally had the same idea from the start.

Under the influence of two countries in the West and the South, Su Ze also began to have similar thoughts in the past ten years.

Robert gave a thoughtful look.

The nobles of Su Ze are different from the Titan nobles who have new ideas and new ideas every day. The nobles of Su Ze have been divided into two factions from a long time ago.

One is a noble from the imperial capital who likes to carry out some taboo experiments in secret, supports private alchemy consultants, and encourages alchemists to develop new technologies and new weapons; A frontier nobleman who hopes to set off a retro wave.

The former controls the Royal Alchemy Society. The latter holds the military and political power, and neither is easy to deal with.

Now it seems... I am afraid that Hellan's family should be the nobles of the Imperial Capital faction.

Sudden. Robert suddenly realized.

He still remembered that Hurland's father's surname was Alex... and one of the nobles of the Imperial Capital faction was indeed named Alex.

He is Duke Swan—the older brother of the contemporary Queen Su Ze.

Because half of the blood of the winter elf flows in his body, he has a long lifespan and at the same time, the chance of successfully giving birth is also greatly reduced. Therefore, although he has many wives, he has only one pair of children, and they are both born by Born in one child by a half-goblin concubine.

This sword dancer with golden rank strength used to be his chief guard, and now he is the mother of a pair of twin girls... Now that I think about it, it is probably Miss Helland's mother.

Robert couldn't help but rejoice that he had seen the truth.

Subsequently. His ambitions also gradually ignited.

That's right, Herlan's long, pure black hair undoubtedly proves her royal bloodline.

Herlan Ming's bloodline is even nobler than that of the next generation of Emperor Su Ze - a quarter of winter elf blood and a quarter of goblin blood flow in her veins. No wonder she is so charming, she probably inherited the natural charm ability of fairies.

And more importantly, she is not a concubine as Robert thought at the beginning, but a direct daughter who has a half chance of inheriting the throne of the Swan Duke.

Robert was suddenly a little reluctant to give up Hurland to the boy An Ruosi.

Duke Swan has only two daughters. If you can marry Helland, you have a half chance of winning the title of Duke—

If you marry a wife of noble blood, coupled with his achievements in hiding in the White Tower for several years, it is impossible to say that he can still compete for the throne of the emperor that he has long given up—

Kill two birds with one stone, and Robert could not help but be moved.

"That's right... An Ruosi already has Natalia. Besides, in his capacity, it's impossible to have a result with Miss Helland... I'm doing it for his own good..."

Robert murmured.

Because Hurland suddenly rushed out of the hotel full of strange atmosphere before. Robert began to worry about her.

Although it seems that Miss Hurland is a very powerful priest, as a girl, it is not good for a person to rush out rashly.

So Robert took the initiative to ask Ying, looking for her little by little in the direction that Hurland rushed out.

Originally, they had agreed to return immediately after Robert found Hurland. But now Robert has decided that he will go back later.

At least find out how Hurland and An Ruosi met. It would be nice to have a meal alone with Hurland.

Because of Hurland's identity, he does not expect to use coercive means. But even fair competition. An Ruosi would definitely not be able to compete with himself.

An Ruosi has it, and he has it; on the contrary, most of the fellow An Ruosi does not have it.

As long as An Ruosi's advantage of knowing Miss Hurland first is negated, what is there to be afraid of that thin-skinned dead wood?

Robert was full of confidence.

"Mr. Robert, would you like a drink?"

Suddenly, Hurland's cold and soft voice came from in front of him, which immediately startled Robert a little.

"…Ah, okay, thank you."

He raised his head and found that Hurland looked at him quietly with his arms around his chest, and the oak barrels behind him were empty.

"Don't worry...I left some for you after I saw you."

"Thank you so much."

Robert took the bowl of soup from Hurland and took a sip with a grateful expression.

...what a strange smell.

He almost frowned.

The broth was basically cold, the meat in it wasn't overcooked, and there wasn't much salt, let alone spices.

However, being stared at by Miss Helland at the moment, Robert only poured a bowl of broth into his stomach with cold sweat. And it didn't feel warm at all.

"Is the taste okay?"

"...To be honest, the taste is average."

Robert hesitated for a long time before deciding to tell the truth.

He believed that Hurland must have drank the broth too, and it would be bad if she thought she liked to lie.

"I'm afraid this is a taste that you will never taste for the rest of your life."

Hurland said meaningfully.

Afterwards, she seemed to suddenly remember something. Seeing Robert's eyes lit up, her voice became a little louder: "By the way... You are a noble of Titan, right?"

"…Yes."

Robert was rather confused.

He didn't know what was the point of Hurland asking this at this moment.

"You first lend me ten silver coins... I want to show you a magical thing. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

Hurland put his hands behind his back, bent slightly, and looked mysterious.

Robert took out a gold coin without hesitation, but was rejected by Hurland shaking his head.

"Ten silver coins is just right. It can't be more or less."

"What's the matter?"

Robert was also somewhat intrigued by Hurland.

"I may have found a channel," Hurland said vaguely, "don't care what I do... In short, you give me ten silver coins, and I will pay you eleven the day after tomorrow."

Robert was thoughtful and nodded solemnly. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
