They all call me master.

Chapter 718: Alliance II

Facing Arthur's question, Ekaterina did not hesitate at all, and without showing any expression on her face, she immediately answered -

"certainly!
Someone needs to be held accountable for the loss of Dordot Port this time!
and……

The Neiwan Golden Lion Family has already damaged the honor of the West Berlin Family!"

As she spoke, anger appeared on Ekaterina's face, and the hatred in her eyes seemed to be tangible.

But when Arthur saw Ekaterina like this, he frowned slightly.

The young 'medium' did not answer, but turned his head to look at the port of Dordot.

The castle of the West Berlin family was built on the top of a mountain, and from here one could overlook the entire Dordot Port. According to the West Berlin Marquis, his ancestors had anticipated the rise of Dordot Port when they built the original castle.

Therefore, this location was chosen to ensure the safety of the port of Dordot and to contain the army on land.

Such words, although judging from the results, have been recognized by most people.

But to Arthur, who had seen the original castle, it was nonsense.

The original castle was slightly larger than a mill and looked like a watchtower.

I guess the original military camp was just two tents or something like that.

It was obvious that the West Berlin family was much poorer than imagined.

There is a saying in Arthur's hometown: 'Good money is spent on the blade', which also applies to this world. Simply put, if the potential of the Port of Dordot is really seen, the limited resources will definitely be placed in the Port of Dordot instead of building a castle here.

Therefore, the ancestors of the West Berlin family did not have such foresight.

Of course, maybe they really had such vision, but the situation at that time did not allow it, so the ancestors of the West Berlin family could only live here.

Who can explain this kind of thing clearly?

After all, time is the most poisonous poison.

Not only does it age people, it also confuses everything.

Fortunately, Arthur is young enough and has enough antidote.

He doesn't think he can see the future or read people's minds.

But he could clearly see the remaining flames and black smoke at the port of Dordot.

It can also make people think that he can see the future or peek into people's hearts.

Don't forget, he is a 'psychic'!

Arthur raised his right hand, raised his index finger and gently rubbed his frowning brows, his eyes moving in a flash.

Seeing this scene, Ekaterina felt something was wrong.

'My expression gave away something?
impossible!
I definitely didn’t…

etc! '

Suddenly, the lady thought of something, but before she could sort out her thoughts, Arthur took the lead and spoke directly -

"Is the West Berlin Marquis seriously injured?"

Ekaterina was stunned.

The lady looked at Arthur in disbelief.

'He knows?'
He got it!

How could he know that!'

The secret that she had tried so hard to hide in her heart was discovered, and even Ekaterina showed a little panic. In order to hide this panic, the lady immediately asked.

"Is it a divination by a psychic?"

"no.

It's your sudden appearance, Ekaterina.

And the straightforwardness just now."

Arthur replied.

"Oh?

Can you tell me more about it?"

Ekaterina frowned, waiting for Arthur's explanation.

The young 'medium' did not try to be mysterious, but answered directly.

“You are the heir designated by the Marquis. Although it has not been made public, everyone in this castle knows it.

So, when a riot breaks out in the port of Dordot, you will be well protected.

If there's even the slightest danger, you shouldn't be here.

Unless, the Marquis of West Berlin gives up on you.

But this is not possible.

That leaves only one possibility -

There were some problems with the West Berlin Marquis, so you had to step on the stage early as the successor to stabilize the situation. "

Ekaterina nodded slightly, acknowledging Arthur's words, and then continued to ask, "What about just now?"

"Your answer just now was so straightforward that I almost mistakenly thought that between the Neiwan Bay and West Berlin, West Berlin had the upper hand.

But in fact?
The inner bay has absolute advantages.

In this case, your straightforwardness inevitably makes people think, combined with the first point, so I boldly asked, is the West Berlin Marquis seriously injured?"

Arthur continued to explain.

Hearing this explanation, Ekaterina couldn't help but applaud.

Pop, pop, pop.

“How I wish you came here for divination.

Your cleverness is as if you actually saw it in person."

Amid the crisp applause, Ekaterina looked at Arthur with fear in her eyes.

This fear was not hidden.

Arthur saw it clearly.

Immediately, the young 'medium' laughed.

He said:

"Have you never doubted that this is really divination?
Haven't you ever thought that it is your thoughts that tell me everything?"

Arthur's smile was full of warmth.

But Ekaterina subconsciously took a step back.

The lady was a little frightened by Arthur's words.

The lady originally wanted to use obvious "fear" to remind Arthur that she was not to be trifled with, but this reminder brought more fright.

Although the lady was not really frightened, the pressure was doubled.

She found herself constrained in every way when facing Arthur.

And that's what Arthur wanted.

He needs to take the initiative in subsequent negotiations.

That kind of——

Absolutely proactive!
At this moment, it has been reached.

"I was just kidding, don't mind it."

Arthur said, shrugging his shoulders and apologizing in a casual manner.

However, Ekaterina did not feel any relief.

The lady knew she was at a disadvantage.

But the lady who still refused to admit defeat immediately said:

“You really scared me a little.

However, it is my honor to have a partner like you - I think we should add a few clauses to the contract signed between my father and you.

For example, about Jacqueline and Catherine."

Catherine did not show up, but Ekaterina could sense the 'weak' aura of her sister.

If you can't break through from the front, try the side, which may produce unexpected results.

This was the teaching of the Marquis of West Berlin, and Ekaterina took it to heart.

And, trying at this moment.

“Jacqueline and Catherine have already recognized Malinda as their adopted sister.

It has nothing to do with our cooperation agreement.”

Arthur kept smiling.

There was a loud bang in Ekaterina's head and it exploded.

It's really an unexpected effect.

But it is negative!

The lady bit her lip secretly.

She knew that she had completely failed.

The frustration was so great that the woman couldn't even keep her expression.

Arthur watched the scene quietly.

It’s not that Arthur has any perverted hobby, he likes to see a lady loser.

Instead, Arthur was waiting for someone to appear who could truly give him a 'definite answer'.

The next moment, footsteps were heard in the secret passage.
