Chapter 245 Goodbye Beauty (Part 1)
Chapter 245 Meeting the Beautiful Woman Again (Part 1)
Leon was not trying to inquire about Corinna’s, it was entirely out of the concern of his friends, and he was also curious.
"No..." Corinna shook her head: "I'm here to visit an elder, and I didn't expect to meet you here."
Looking at her beautiful smile and beautiful appearance, there is no doubt that she has lived a bad life in Ugru. If the rumors are not fake, this place originally belongs to her hometown.
"Why wait until I get the title certificate and let's have a meal together in the evening?" Leon invited, "I just don't know how much time I have to wait."
"The elders always have a tight time. I'll wait here with you." Corinna chuckled and said, "I also want to hear you tell the story of fighting the barbarians on the extreme Arctic ice."
Her news was very well-informed, but Leon led his team back to Ugru from the far north. After walking on the road for more than half a month, the relevant news must have reached the capital. It is definitely not a problem to ask for it as her.
The key is that Corinna is obviously very concerned about the news about him, which makes Leon's heart feel a little warm.
It’s the same waiting. With the beauty around you, chatting quietly, the waiting time is no longer boring.
In fact, Leon didn't wait long before chatting with Corinna for a while, and a tiger nobleman in a golden robe appeared with a deacon.
"Hello, Mr. DePalic"
Seeing the tiger nobleman, Corinna stood up and smiled and greeted him.
This was also a reminder to Leon, and he stood up and saluted: "Hello, Mr. Deparic"
All the elders of the kingdom are powerful nobles and are the top figures at the kingdom. Even if Leon is arrogant and unruly, he needs to maintain enough respect and politeness in front of the other party.
"Hello, Princess Corinna, you are getting more and more beautiful." The tiger nobleman laughed and his eyes fell on Leon: "This must be Baron Leon, the lord of Thrall. I'm very sorry for letting you wait for a long time."
The title of Princess Corinna surprised Leon.
According to rumors, Corinna is Sophia Rhine's daughter, and the identity of the princess is of course unquestionable.
But Sophia's era has long passed, and Corinna has not even saved her territory, so the princess's identity was naturally deprived, and she could not even gain a foothold in Ugru.
Now, Corinna not only returned to Ugru, but also the veteran nobles were very polite to her. The title of this princess did not contain any sarcastic meaning, at least it means that Corinna had taken back all or part of the things that originally belonged to her.
After a thousand thoughts passed in his mind, Leon looked as old as before, and said in a humble manner: "Sir, you are too polite."
If Corinna wasn't around me, I'm afraid this old nobleman who was above the top wouldn't have appeared here at all
Leon's heart was bright.
"Take the thing over to Baron Reon," Deparic waved his hand and ordered.
The deacon of the Senate who was standing behind quickly took two steps forward and respectfully presented a golden scroll to Leon.
"This is your Viscount's title and new territory. Congratulations, Viscount Rean"
After taking this gold-rich scroll, Leon bowed to the other party again: "Thank you, Mr. Elder."
DeParic nodded reservedly, and smiled at Corinna again, "Princess Corinna, if you have the chance, come to me and taste the red mist tea I just got."
After a few words of politeness, the veteran Deparic left with the deacon. Leon could see that he expressed enough respect to Corinna, but obviously did not have too much intimacy.
"I know you have a lot of questions. Let's find a place to sit down and chat slowly." Corinna saw the doubts in Leon's heart.
"Okay" Leon certainly has no objection.
The two walked out of the central hall of the Senate together, and Corinna took the initiative to hold his arm, which brought a lot of strange gazes.
Those who can enter and exit the Senate are not ordinary people. There are many high-ranking officials, knights, samurai, and shamans in the royal capital. Even an ordinary deacon here has the title of nobles.
The intimate attitude of Corinna and Leon undoubtedly fell into the eyes of many people. Many of them obviously knew Corinna's identity, so their eyes were basically focused on Leon.
Curiosity, shock, jealousy... makes the perceptually sensitive Leon feel like a thorn on his back.
There is pressure to walk with a beauty, and the pressure to walk with a beautiful woman with the title of princess is huge. Leon couldn't help but turn his head to look at the people around him. The fox princess smiled and looked calm, as if she didn't realize that it had caused him a lot of trouble.
Forget it, anyway, it’s impossible to catch up with Thrall if you have any trouble, right? Shaozi Leon was so excited that he didn’t need to care about the opinions of these people.
But what he didn't expect was that trouble came so quickly.
Da da da da da
Three horses galloped from one side of the street and steadily landed at the gate of the Senate.
The knights turned over and jumped off the horse's back, just blocking the way for Reon and Corinna.
"Princess Corinna"
One of the young knights greeted loudly, with an incredible look of enthusiasm in his eyes.
But when he saw Corinna holding Leon's little hand, the enthusiasm in his eyes turned into uncontrollable anger and jealousy, as if he had grabbed his lover's husband.
"who is he?"
Who is this guy? Leon was stunned for a moment.
The knight is about twenty-seven or eight years old, with a strong body and tall figure, handsome appearance, and his dazzling golden curly hair has obvious lion characteristics, but a pair of lion eyes are full of violent blood.
He was wearing a set of dark gold armor, and the mount beside him was even more miscellaneous. He was undoubtedly a noble knight among the rich families of the royal capital.
"Count Sayat..." Corinna frowned slightly and said coldly: "You are blocking our way."
The Knight's face suddenly turned red. He looked like an angry lion, staring at Leon with his eyes burning, his right hand clenched into a fist, and his knuckles made a "gaba" crisp sound due to force.
"No matter who you are, get out of Princess Corinna immediately." He squeezed out a few words from his teeth, and he looked like he was going to eat Rayon raw: "Otherwise..."
"What else?" Leon asked faintly, a hint of disdain flashed in his tiger's eyes.
In this wealthy capital, Leon doesn't want to cause trouble, but he is absolutely not afraid of trouble.
This guy should be Corina's suitor, but as a noble knight, he is so arrogant and impulsive, he must be a person who is used to being arrogant. The Count's identity shows his strong background.
But this does not mean that Leon is afraid of the other party.
Suddenly, a follower knight standing next to Suster came to his ear and whispered a few words.
Sayat's expression changed immediately.
Leon was surprised because he actually knew Pasting Tiger, the entourage of Sayat.
When he was in Tormond, Pastin had caused trouble with Leon a lot, and he colluded with the unlucky guy, Wald, to plot against Leon in the temple.
As a result, Wald died in the end, and Pastin, the initiator, disappeared for a while.
This guy gave Leon the impression that he was cruel, compassionate, and was not an easy-to-deal character. He had also coveted Corinna.
Leon still remembers that Pastin was an intermediate commander of the Southwest Provincial Garage Army. He didn't expect that he would actually run to the capital now and become someone else's entourage.
"I think of it as a big man, it turns out to be just a little baron..." Sayat said contemptuously: "If you want to die, just say it."
"His Excellency Sayat"
Before Leon could speak, Corinna was angry first, her pretty face was covered with frost, and her eyes became as sharp as a knife: "Vissole Leon is my friend. If you still have a hint of knightly demeanor, please get out of here immediately."
"friend…"
This word was quite stimulating to Sayat. A ferocious look appeared on his face. He took off his gloves and slammed Leon hard on the face.
"I want to duel with you"
The scene that happened at the gate of the Senate attracted a lot of attention. Many nobles gathered in groups of three or three to watch, whispering in a low voice.
The guard knight guarding the door turned a blind eye.
Leon snorted coldly and waved his hand to slap Sayat's gloves thrown away.
"What? Are you afraid? If you are still a man, pick it up immediately." Sayat shouted loudly.
"Dull?" Leon sneered: "According to the laws of the kingdom, private duels are to be whipped and deprived of titles. It doesn't matter if you are stupid, don't treat others as mentally retarded?"
The aristocratic duel was once a tradition in the aristocratic circle of the human nation state, and later the Begun nobles spread this trend.
Because many Beimonian nobles were aggressive by nature, the trend of duels was extremely popular a hundred years ago. Many nobles used this life-and-death duel to resolve their hatreds, causing the deaths of many people.
In view of the serious impact, the kingdom formulated a special law to strictly prohibit private duels between nobles. Leon had learned the Bemon law, so he had some understanding of this.
If he really agreed to the other party's duel, it would undoubtedly fall into the trap.
In addition, if both parties agree and apply to the Senate, an open duel will be held under the supervision of a notary, this is allowed, but similar duels are rare now.
"Okay, wait"
Sayat glared at Leon with hatred, turned over and jumped onto the horse: "If you have a habit, don't run away."
He whipped the horse hard, as if he wanted to vent all his anger, and the horse's belly was covered in blood.
The mount was hurt and ran forward with a long hissing sound, and disappeared at the end of the long street in a blink of an eye.
