Chapter 514: Ambition
Asked by O'Neill, the faces of the girls in Elana became unnatural, and the brown-haired girl even said that she had something to do and needed to go home first, said hello to Elana, and walked towards her carriage go.
Seeing the girls' reactions, O'Neill already understood what happened, and quickly turned to Xifa and bowed: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Major, my sisters said something they shouldn't have said, and I apologize for them."
Xifa waved his hands and said with a smile, "Second Lieutenant O'Neill, I'm just a brother who came to pick up my sister tonight, not a lieutenant commander."
Hearing what he said, O'Neill was relieved, knowing that Xifa would not pursue it.
When Sifa was talking with her sister, Elana pulled her brother's sleeve boldly and asked in a low voice: "O'Neil, Miss Belle's brother is really a major?"
O'Neill glanced at Sifa and saw that they had no intention of leaving, so he said hastily, "Of course, I witnessed this officer's award ceremony with my own eyes today."
"And I heard that Mr. Major was directly promoted from second lieutenant to major. He must have made a huge contribution, otherwise it would be impossible to jump three levels in a row."
Elana stuck out her tongue and said, "Is he so powerful?"
"Yes, and I'm already his adjutant. Mr. Major will go to sea after the new year, and I will serve on his ship. Moreover, I will join a mysterious department that is against the 'MI9' It can be regarded as MI9 at sea." O'Neill said excitedly.
Elana's eyes sparkled when she heard this. Although their family has not yet declined, and their elder brother O'Neill has joined the army, the future can be expected.
If there is no accident, Elana's future husband should be a middle-level officer in the army. It's not that she doesn't want to marry someone with a higher position, but those people usually don't like a girl from a small family like her.
Even if you barely get close, at most you will become someone else's lover.
But now, Elana has a better choice. The young major in front of her has climbed to her current position in just a few months, which shows that his ability and potential are extremely huge.
Maybe it is true as what Harri Belle said, her brother will become the general of the kingdom in the future, if so, she will not be able to climb high by then.
Now, there is still a chance, especially since my brother is his adjutant.
The girl immediately looked at Harri Bell, and made up her mind to have a good relationship with her no matter what. To be her friend, her sister, and get to know the major through her, this is the fastest way to marry yourself to the major!
Another year.
I will be an adult in one year!
It's too late to work hard now!
Elana held her brother's hand a little harder: "O'Neal, you have to work hard, and you must make this major look at you with admiration."
O'Neill didn't know what was going on in his sister's mind, thinking that his sister was motivating him, so he nodded vigorously: "Of course."
At this time, he heard Sifa say: "Let's go, let's go home."
O'Neill hurriedly bid farewell to his sister, stood beside the carriage, and only got into the carriage after Sifa and Harribell got into the carriage.
This special carriage provided by the General Office of the Navy has a spacious compartment that even a tall man like Levtor can sit in. There is even a small round table in the compartment.
Sitting next to Xifa, Harribell looked at him seriously again: "I'm not dreaming, when did you come back, are you a major now?"
Sifa leaned on the back of the cushioned chair and said with a smile, "I just came back today. I went home first. I heard from my mother that you were here for a party, so I went to the General Office of the Navy first."
"I completed a mission at sea. I'm sorry I can't tell you the main content of that mission. What I can say is that through that mission, I made a great contribution to the kingdom. This contribution made me Became a major."
What Xifa didn't say was that he also received a reward of 50,000 pounds from the navy, and now his bank account has a deposit of 87,500 pounds.
If you add the investment made by lawyer Lynn, then Xifa's property has exceeded 100,000 pounds, which can be called a rich man in Backlandry.
Only then was Harribel relieved, she glanced at Levtor unintentionally, and instinctively felt fear. Not only because of Levtor's burly figure, but also because of the black iron mask on the puppet's face, the skin under the mask seems to have some burn marks.
Xifa held her hand lightly: "Baal is a person who is worth relying on, a reliable comrade-in-arms whom I can turn my back to. At sea, he caused disfigurement in order to save me. Don't look at him as vicious, but in fact he A gentle man."
Hearing that Levtor's face was injured by Salvation, Harribel immediately said sincerely: "I'm sorry, Mr. Barr, I shouldn't be afraid of you."
"Also, thank you for saving Sifa and my big brother."
Levtor chuckled softly from the mask: "Don't worry, beautiful lady, you really should be afraid of people like me, after all we are all dangerous people."
After manipulating the secret puppet to respond to Harri Bell, Sifer apologized to his sister in his heart, he lied. The wound on Levtor's face was not because of saving him, but because Sifer had destroyed his original appearance before coming to Backlund in order to prevent anyone from recognizing Secret Puppet's true identity, and then put a mask on him.
In this way, it is not necessary for Lev Thor to wear the "Traveler with a Thousand Faces" all the time.
162 Berklund Street.
The carriage stopped in front of the gate, and after Xifa helped his sister get out of the car, he said to O'Neill, "Go back first, it's getting late."
O'Neill gave a military salute and said, "Tomorrow morning, I'll be back for my dispatch."
Watching O'Neill leave, Sifer smiled. He didn't dislike this energetic young adjutant, but he also knew that he was a pawn placed beside him by 'Black Sails', responsible for monitoring and ensuring that a captain like himself would not be at sea. Forget being a navy.
Xifa is sure that there are similar people around Ken Angus on the 'Breaker', and this is a shackle imposed on them by the kingdom.
"Go, let's go into the house."
At this moment, the door has opened, and Sebas, the butler with a gray beard, has brought his servants out to greet him. It's just that when they came to Backlund, there were far fewer servants than in Enki Town, and there were only four male servants standing beside Sebas.
"Welcome back, Master Sifa, Miss Belle."
"Good evening, Mr. Sebastian." Xifa nodded, and said to the sister next to him, "I have to quickly change this dress, it makes me look like an actor on stage."
Holly Belle covered her mouth and smiled slightly: "I think it suits you quite well."
While talking, the two headed to the villa in front surrounded by the butler and servants. It is not as spacious as the baron's mansion, but it also has a garden, stables, and servants' rooms.
The villa has three floors, with a total of more than a dozen rooms. The furnishings, furniture and utensils cannot be compared with the Baron's Mansion, it can only be called decent.
When Xifa came back today, she heard from her mother that Baisen was only planning to live here temporarily and would move to Queens later.
From this decision, it is not difficult to hear that this baron from a remote town has some kind of ambition hidden.
