Chapter 240 Five Goodbye Beauty

Leon didn't want to inquire about Corinna, it was entirely out of his friend's concern and curiosity. 【】

"No..." Corinna shook her head: "I'm here to visit a senior elder, and I didn't expect to meet you here."

With her smiling and beautiful appearance, there is no doubt that life in Ugru is not bad. If the rumors are not false, this place belongs to her hometown.

"Why don't we have dinner together after I get the title certificate? Less words," Leon invited, "I just don't know how long we have to wait."

"The time of the elders is always very tight, let me wait here with you." Corinna smiled lightly, "I still want to hear your story about fighting the barbarians on the extreme arctic ice sheet."

Her news is very well-informed, but Leon led the team back to Ugru from the extreme north. After walking for more than half a month, relevant news must have reached the capital long ago. As her identity, she wants to inquire about the absolute not a problem.

The point is that Corinna is obviously paying attention to the news about him, which makes Leon's heart feel warmer.

The same is waiting, with a beautiful woman by your side, chatting softly, the waiting time will no longer be boring.

In fact, Leon didn't wait long before chatting with Corinna for a while, and a tiger-born nobleman in a golden robe appeared with a deacon.

"Hello, Your Excellency Deparici"

Seeing this tiger-born nobleman, Corinna got up and smiled at him.

This is also a reminder to Leon, he also stood up and saluted: "Hello, Elder Deparici"

The elders of the kingdom are not powerful dignitaries, they belong to the top figures in the kingdom, no matter how arrogant and unruly Leon is, he still needs to maintain enough respect and courtesy in front of the other party.

"Hello, Princess Corinna, you are getting more and more beautiful." The tiger-born nobleman laughed, and his eyes fell on Leon: "This must be Baron Leon, the lord of Thrall. You've been waiting a long time."

The title of Princess Corinna surprised Leon.

According to rumors, Corinna is the daughter of Sophia Rhine, and her status as a princess is of course beyond doubt.

But Sophia's era has long passed, and Corinna didn't even keep her own territory. Naturally, she was deprived of her princess status, and she couldn't even gain a foothold in Ugru.

But now Corinna has not only returned to Ugru, but the elders and nobles are also very polite to her. The title of this princess does not contain any sarcasm, at least it means that Corinna has taken back all or part of what originally belonged to her .

Thousands of thoughts went through his mind, Leon's expression remained the same, and he said neither arrogant nor humble: "Master Yuan, you are too polite."

Without Corinna by his side, I'm afraid this veteran nobleman with eyes above the top would not appear here at all

Leon's heart is clear.

"Take the things to Baron Leon." Deparic waved his hand and ordered.

The deacon of the Senate who was standing behind hurried forward two steps, and respectfully presented a golden scroll to Leon.

"This is your title of Viscount and proof of newly added territory, congratulations, Viscount Leon"

After receiving the golden scroll, Leon saluted the other party again: "Thank you, my lord."

Deparic nodded reservedly, and smiled at Corinna again: "Princess Corinna, if you have a chance, come to my place and try the red mist tea I just got."

After a few words of politeness, Elder Deparic left with the deacon, and Leon felt that he had expressed enough respect to Corinna, but apparently he did not intend to be too close.

"I know you have a lot of questions, let's find a place to sit down and talk slowly." Corinna expressed Leon's doubts.

"Okay." Of course Leon had no objection.

The two walked out of the central hall of the Senate together. Corinna took the initiative to hold his arm, which attracted quite a few strange looks.

Those who can enter and leave the Senate are not ordinary people. There are many dignitaries, knights, warriors, and shamans in the capital. Even an ordinary deacon here has the title of nobility.

However, Corinna and Leon's intimate gesture undoubtedly fell into the eyes of many people. Many of them obviously knew Corinna's identity, so their eyes basically focused on Leon.

Curiosity, shock, jealousy... let Leon, who has a keen sense, feel a thorn in his back.

There is pressure to walk with a beautiful woman, and the pressure to walk with a beautiful woman with the title of princess is huge. Leon couldn't help turning his head and glanced at the people around him. The fox-born princess smiled calmly. , It seems that he didn't realize that he had caused a lot of trouble.

Forget it, anyway, if there is any trouble, it is impossible to catch up to Thrall, right?Leon thought about it, he didn't need to care about these people's laws.

But what he didn't expect was that the trouble came so quickly.

Da da da

Three fine horses came galloping from the side of the street and landed steadily at the gate of the Senate.

The knights turned over and jumped off their horses, just blocking the way of Leon and Corinna.

"Princess Corinne"

One of the young knights greeted loudly, his eyes were full of eagerness.

It's just that when he saw that Corinna held Leon's little hand, the eagerness in his eyes turned into uncontrollable anger and jealousy, as if he had caught his lover's husband.

"Who is he?"

Who is this guy?Leon froze for a moment.

This knight was about 27 or [-] years old. He was tall and tall with a strong physique and an extraordinary handsome appearance. His golden and dazzling curly hair had obvious lion-like features, but a pair of lion eyes were full of violent blood.

He was wearing a set of dark golden armor, and the mount beside him was even more extraordinary, without a trace of hair on his body, he was undoubtedly a noble knight from a wealthy family in the capital.

"Earl Sayat..." Corinna frowned slightly, and said coldly: "You are blocking our way"

The knight's face suddenly flushed red, he was like an enraged lion, his eyes were blazing and fixed on Leon, his right hand was tightly clenched into a fist, and the knuckles made a "crack" sound due to the force.

"You don't care who you are, get away from Princess Corinna immediately." He squeezed out a few words between his teeth, looking like he was going to eat Leon raw: "Otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?" Leon asked lightly, a look of disdain flashed in the tiger's eyes.

In this royal capital full of rich and nobles, Leon didn't want to cause trouble, but he was definitely not afraid of trouble.

This guy should be Corinna's suitor, but as an aristocratic knight, he is so arrogant and impulsive, so he must be a person who is used to being arrogant, and the status of the earl is enough to show his strong background.

But this does not mean that Leon is afraid of the other party.

Suddenly, an accompanying knight standing next to Suster came to his ear and whispered a few words.

Sayat's expression changed immediately.

Leon was surprised, because the knight following Sayat actually knew Pastintag.

When he was in Tormund back then, Pastine made troubles for Leon a lot, and even collaborated with that unlucky Wald to assassinate Leon in the temple.

As a result, Wald died in the end, and Pastine, the instigator, disappeared for a while.

This guy gave Leon the impression that he was ruthless, kind and forbearing. He was not an easy character to deal with, and he once coveted Corinna.

Leon still remembered that Pastine was a high-level commander of the garrison in the Southwest Province, but he didn't expect that he would go to the capital now and become someone else's entourage.

"I thought I was a big man, but I turned out to be just a small baron..." Sayat said contemptuously, "Just say it if you want to die."

"His Excellency Sayat"

Before Leon could speak, Corinna got angry first, her pretty face was covered with a layer of frost, and her gaze became as sharp as a knife: "Viscount Leon is my friend, if you still have a little bit of knight demeanor , please get out of the way immediately"

"friend…"

This word irritated Sayat quite a bit, and a ferocious look appeared on his face. He took off his gloves and slammed Leon's face hard.

"I'm going to fight you"

The scene that happened at the gate of the Senate attracted the attention of many people. Many nobles gathered in twos and threes not far away to watch, talking in whispers.

The guard knights guarding the door turned a blind eye.

Leon snorted coldly, and waved away the glove thrown by Sayat.

"What? Are you scared? If you're still a man, pick it up for me right away," Sayat yelled loudly.

"Duel?" Leon sneered, "According to the kingdom's laws, private duels are subject to whipping and deprivation of titles. It doesn't matter if you are stupid, don't treat others as mentally retarded, okay?"

Noble duels used to be a tradition in the noble circles of human countries, and later the Beamon nobles infected this trend.

Due to the combative nature of the Behemoth nobles, duels were very popular a hundred years ago. Many nobles used this life-and-death duel to resolve their enmity, resulting in many deaths.

In view of the serious impact, the kingdom formulated a special law forbidding private duels between nobles. Leon had studied Beamon's law, so he knew something about it.

If he really agreed to the opponent's duel, he would have fallen into a trap.

In addition, if the two parties agree and apply to the Senate, a public duel under the supervision of a notary is allowed, but similar duels are rare now.

"Okay you wait"

Sayat glared at Leon bitterly, turned over and jumped on the horse: "If you have the guts, don't run away."

He lashed the horse hard with a whip, as if wanting to vent all his anger, the horse's belly was dripping with blood.

The mount galloped forward with a long hiss under the pain, and disappeared at the end of the long street in a blink of an eye.
