Chapter 183 Nobles
Ten months later, a baby's cry was heard in Leon Castle in Bagley Kingdom, and the cry spread throughout the castle.
"My Lord, the young master is born." An old woman wrapped the baby in precious cotton cloth and brought it to a man in armor with a serious expression.
The man was depressed, but his face became more harmonious when he saw the baby.
He said, "Take good care of the young master. If there is any problem, you will be buried with him!"
"Yes!" The old woman did not dare to neglect it and immediately found someone to take care of the baby.
The baby was naturally Su Lun. He had been in the fetal state for ten months and now he finally spoke.
He could have been born a few months earlier, but he was afraid that he would be born too early and had congenital deficiencies, so he had been waiting.
Su Lun's clear eyes swept across everyone present, because he was studying language every day in his stomach, and the language of this world had been completely mastered by him. He could understand what these people said.
The man in armor was his father in this world, named Puli Leon, a little earl. He rarely saw this father and looked very busy.
Judging from the clothes on his father, there must be frequent wars in this place, otherwise he would not dress like this. This place is at least not particularly comfortable.
Count Puri walked to the woman who had just given birth and said softly: "Rest assured, don't worry about what's happening outside."
He comforted her and took Su Lun away.
Su Lun was placed in a warm and comfortable room, and there was a special person to take care of her every day.
...
Fifteen years later, in the library of Leon Castle, Su Lun was flipping through various books.
These books were very old and no one took care of them. If he hadn't come to read books often, these books might have weathered.
Su Lun opened a book called History of Various Countries. The book was made of parchment, and the text on it was a symbolic text similar to Latin. After several years of study, he thoroughly mastered the common text of this world.
As a visitor from another world, he was learning about this world every day. As he learned more about this world, he was more surprised, because this world also had extraordinary power, and the level was not low.
After a long time, Su Lun closed the book and stretched himself.
"Master Aiden, the Earl wants you over." A servant standing by whispered.
Su Lun stood up from his chair. Aiden Leon was his name in this world.
He glanced at the servant beside him, and the servant in linen clothes immediately lowered his head with an extremely respectful look.
He sighed in his heart. This was a world similar to the European Middle Ages. The hierarchy was very strict. When servants met nobles, they had to bow their heads to show respect.
He didn't like the many levels here. After all, he had lived in a more enlightened era, but he was just the son of a little earl and could not change all this. If he wanted to change the rules, he had to pay a price.
Su Lun said lightly: "Gro, I remember I said, don't use honorifics when calling me by my name, just call me by my name."
Being a noble may be interesting. After all, it is a noble person, but Su Lun doesn't think he is superior to others, and the same is true for nobles.
The attendant named Gro was a little flustered when he heard this. He lowered his head even deeper and said in a trembling voice: "Master, please take back the order. Disrespecting the master will result in death!"
He has been with Su Lun for many years and has learned a lot of new knowledge from Su Lun, including the concept of equality for all, but he knows very well that in this world, nobles are nobles and commoners can only be servants forever.
Su Lun suddenly felt a little irritated when he saw this. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything."
He didn't force it. Changing ideas is not a matter of one day or one night.
Su Lun walked out of the library. The cold wind outside was blowing non-stop, and the air was gradually getting colder.
He took a fur coat from Gro and put it on. The fur coat was made of wolf skin, which was very soft and comfortable, and his body became much warmer.
They walked towards the main building. When they walked on the road, everyone on the road gave them respectful looks. This is the difference between nobles and commoners.
Su Lun has become accustomed to this. He is now in the castle. There are only soldiers guarding and various important personnel in the castle. Commoners live outside the castle.
Soon after, Su Lun came to the palace in the main building of the castle, where the earl and his men discussed important matters.
His father, Earl Pulley, was discussing with the cabinet ministers, so he didn't want to disturb him, so he just waited aside.
"Okay, all of you go out!" They didn't talk for too long, and Earl Pulley called everyone out, leaving only Su Lun alone.
After saying goodbye to these people one by one, Su Lun walked up to Earl Pulley and said, "What does my father want to talk to me about?"
He rarely saw his father, because it was not easy to manage the territory, not to mention dealing with various thieves, the harm of wild beasts and the conflicts between civilians. Even if there was anything, it was only the servants who conveyed it to each other.
"You went to the library again?"
Pulley looked at Su Lun, his expression was as serious as ever.
Su Lun nodded. This place did not attach importance to knowledge, so there was a rumor in the castle that the earl was dissatisfied with him going to the library.
He carefully observed Earl Pulley's expression, but Pulley did not get angry as he imagined.
Earl Pulley said calmly: "There is nothing wrong with learning knowledge, but don't neglect physical training. Learn more practical skills from the Knights General in the palace. These will be of great help to you in the future."
Although he seldom came into contact with Su Lun, he also knew from his subordinates' reports that Su Lun's performance was completely beyond the ordinary, both in terms of personal ability and moral character.
He used to worry about what to do if his child was a playboy, after all, other noble children rarely had the ambition to make progress, but now he found that he had no need to worry about this.
"Don't worry, father, I haven't left any of these behind." Su Lun replied in the same calm manner.
He once looked for the Knights' Steward in the palace, who was responsible for managing knights and soldiers.
Su Lun found that the Knights' Steward's actual combat ability was not as good as his. He had practiced cold weapon combat in the virtual world, which was just right for this world.
Puli did not doubt what Su Lun said. He could tell from Su Lun's strong muscles that Su Lun was not lying.
He turned and looked out the window. Because the castle was located on a relatively high ground, he could clearly see through the window that the people in the territory were working hard, and the civilians were always repeating the same work.
The civilians always worked hard on their own land, with almost no channels for promotion, and they had to deal with various dangers at all times.
