king of the castle

Chapter 48

"Obviously Fisichella invited us here, but now this attitude is too much!" Eddie, who graduated from the Imperial School of Etiquette, was the first to bear it, and lowered his voice to Mike beside him: "He is insulting our master by doing this!"

Mike said angrily, "We'll rush in and chop that earl off now!"

Mike and Eddie were originally civilians, and it would be a great honor for them to be able to catch a glimpse of a big man like Fisichella, and they didn't even dare to discuss killing an earl. 【】

But now that both of them have sworn allegiance to Roger, naturally they can't stand by and watch Fisichella insult their master.And both Mike and Eddie firmly believe that Roger is also a nobleman, and the honor of a nobleman cannot be violated by anyone.If a nobleman encounters such a thing, he can only use blood to wash away the insult he has suffered.As Roger's followers, Mike and Eddie have a duty to uphold the honor of their master.At this moment, both of them were furious, only thinking about how to restore the master's honor.

But Roger himself was not as angry as his subordinates.Although Fisichella's attitude was bad, Roger had already responded. He was not so careful that he would kill someone if he disagreed.Hearing the conversation between Mike and Eddie, Roger immediately stopped the two with his eyes, reminding them not to act rashly.

Fisher did not hear the conversation between the two, he motioned to Roger to let the soldiers stay behind the city wall, and then took the others into a large room in the castle, and said with a poker face: "I will soon Let the servants deliver the food, and the soldiers outside will be taken care of, if you need anything else, just ring the bell to call the servants."

As soon as these scenes were finished, Fisher also quickly left the room.As the earl's butler, Fisher is naturally very discerning.Since Fisichella's attitude towards these people is indifferent, he will not be too enthusiastic towards Roger and others.

However, Fisher was very interested in Roger's soldiers, and the steward was already thinking secretly that if he could recruit these people into his master's command, he would be more confident of sticking to the day when the reinforcements arrived.With this in mind, Fisher found a servant and told him to treat the soldiers outside well, while he hurried to the study to find Fisichella.

"Lord Earl, I have settled those people, and those soldiers will be properly settled." The steward said respectfully to Fisichella: "However, my mercenaries have no plans to stay in Fort Davao for a long time. It would be a pity to let them go like this..."

After hearing what the butler said, Fisichella was also a little anxious, frowning and dissatisfied: "Why... Are these mercenaries not satisfied? I have provided them with enough shelter, what else do they want?"

Fisichella's words were quite shameless.It was obviously because he coveted the power of Roger's hand that he invited everyone into the castle.In his mouth, it turned out that Roger and others were seeking his asylum. This ability to reverse black and white is considered first-rate.

However, Fisher didn't think there was anything wrong with what the master said, and he immediately continued: "Maybe these people still don't understand what you mean, do you want me to give them some advice, so that these mercenaries can understand your concern and concern for them?" kindness?"

Fisher's so-called "teaching" is actually a threat.The power and status of nobles on the Continent of Em is very high. Even in a weak situation, it is very common to threaten characters like mercenaries.

Of course Fisichella understood what the butler meant, and after thinking for a while, he calmly said, "Will the mercenaries agree? My leader named Roger is very polite, and I'm afraid he's not an easy person to deal with."

"My lord, don't worry, I will persuade them." Fisher said confidently: "Isn't the mercenary fighting bloody for money? I believe those people will not refuse your request. Even if their leader is not willing, I will You can also talk to those soldiers directly, I think it should be no problem to keep at least half of them.”

"Very well, I'll leave this matter to you." Fisichella felt that the steward's words were right, nodded in satisfaction and said, "As long as the mercenaries are willing to work for me, I can give them a chance to pledge their allegiance to me." .”

"You are so generous, my lord." Fisher took no time to flatter his master, and then excitedly went to negotiate with Roger.

"what?!"

"nonsense!"

"If you say it again, I'll kill you!"

"You are insulting my lord!"

When the butler stated Fisichella's conditions in front of everyone, he immediately received a series of reprimands.Even Lisa was very dissatisfied, and glared at Fisher with a stern face, obviously pissed off by his words.

Maybe Fisichella's conditions are indeed quite generous for real mercenaries, but Lisa and the others thought that Roger himself was a nobleman, so it would be too polite for him to raise such conditions.How can there be any reason for a nobleman to be loyal to another nobleman?Even if it is the lowest lord, the only ones who are qualified to accept his allegiance are the king and the pope.So among the crowd, Fisichella raised such a condition is tantamount to slapping Roger in the face!

Seeing his master being insulted like this, even Eddie, who has always been polite, couldn't accept it, so he drew out the dagger he carried with him and stabbed at Fisher.He planned to end this guy's life first, and then go to his master to settle the score.

"Stop, Eddie." Roger stopped his men's actions in time, and said to Fisher without changing his face: "My people and I will leave until dawn, don't bother us with inexplicable requests If you annoy me, I will kill your master first without using undead creatures!"

Roger's words are not false threats. In fact, as long as he is willing, he can kill Fisichella and his soldiers and replace them as the master of Fort Davao.

Hearing the undisguised murderous intent from Roger's words, Fisher, who had always looked down on these inferior people, was immediately drenched in cold sweat.He was sure that if he persuaded Roger to serve the earl again, this guy would definitely do it!

"You lowly low-class people dare to threaten a nobleman, and you will all be hanged sooner or later!" Roger dared not say anything to Roger and the others. He left the room in a panic.

However, the butler did not go back to report to the master immediately, but walked directly to the soldiers who stayed outside.He has already boasted in front of his master, and he must gain something before he can go back to work.

At the same time, the furious Eddie and others are suggesting to Roger that they should immediately command the soldiers to rush into the castle, and ask the noble who dared to insult him to pay in blood.Roger just wanted to appease everyone's emotions, but he suddenly laughed involuntarily.
