Chapter 32 Ruth
After a conversation with Old Sol, Luther's plan changed a little.
Originally, Luther's plan was to grow slowly and accumulate strength. Whether it was to transform the agriculture of Pompeii Territory or to research distilled liquor technology, the purpose was to accumulate wealth.
Only with financial resources and strength can the Pompeii family's title be promoted.
And wealth is the first priority, because only with wealth can you buy magic potions.
Now Luther's knighthood has actually been very bumpy. Because of the slow progress, his talent is neither good nor bad, and he is considered to be above average.
If he were to hone his skills according to the skill of dripping water into a hole, he would probably be an intermediate knight at best in this life.
This is not acceptable.
In short, grow slowly.
But after a conversation with Old Sol, it was different. Mainly, he got some information about the mess of the Barton family and the six major families.
Lucy, let's put aside the Barton matter for the time being. Anyway, it will take a long time for the current Baron Barton to die of old age.
The six major families are different.
This is the political legacy left by Old Sol and the ancestors of the Pompeii family, especially Old Sol, who is the leader of the six major families of this generation.
This raises his status.
Besides, the fat Newton is his cousin.
The other teenagers also grew up together. The most important thing is that Luther is a time traveler, after all, he is a few years older than these little guys.
And with a purpose, it is easy to gain the admiration of these little guys and become the leader.
But there is no rush for this matter, after all, it takes a long time. The boss did not grow up all at once, just like a seedling, slowly accumulating prestige and growing up.
After chatting with these little guys for a long time, Luther put on a mature look, initially established the status of a leader, and let the little guys reduce the time of playing dandy and increase knight training.
If the six major families unite in the future to establish a new baronial territory, the little guys will definitely be the backbone.
In short, it is fooling children, not glorious, and there is nothing to say.
After chatting with the little ones for a while, Luther took them back to the hall and continued the banquet. The women still surrounded Lucy and Barton.
To be honest, the third son of the baron's family is indeed handsome and elegant, and is a perfect husband and lover for the ladies.
Only Luther knew that the third young master had previously despised these women as "country women"
"Haha, a noble who says one thing but means another."
But Luther quickly remembered that he was also a noble, so he didn't think about it any further.
Late at night, the banquet ended.
The guests from the six major families, as well as Lucy and Barton, were retained by the Pompeii family and stayed in the castle, while their guards camped outside the castle to rest.
As for more noble descendants, I'm sorry.
The castle doesn't have so many rooms, so they can only camp outside the castle.
As I said, status. The real nobles and the descendants of nobles are actually two completely different classes.
Luther also breathed a sigh of relief. So many things happened at the banquet today, and Luther also spent some of his energy. I didn't expect that these political things were more tiring than knight training.
It's better to participate less in politics.
I still like to grow up quietly and farm quietly. When I am strong enough, I will give the entire Kingdom of Prussia a surprise.
Hehe.
Luther, with his mental fatigue, planned to go to the bedroom upstairs to rest. I miss the soft bed. Little Maya must have made the bed.
What a cute little maid.
She is just a little bit fierce and not considerate.
But at this moment, a girl called him.
"Master Luther."
The voice sounded familiar. Luther looked up at the girl, then nodded, turned around, smiled at the girl and said, "Miss Ruth."
It was the brown-haired girl.
Not long ago, Luther learned that the girl was called Ruth, Ruth, Ruhl. The blood relationship can be traced back to an ancient marquis, but the blood relationship is very weak.
Now the girl's father is just a businessman.
A descendant of aristocrats who does business.
The girl is pretty and fits Luther's aesthetics. She has brown hair that is slightly curly and shiny. Her face is soft and has the charm of an oriental woman.
Big eyes, small nose, plump lips.
Her facial features are impeccable.
Her figure is a little plump, but not exaggerated.
Of course, if Luther didn't like this kind of girl, he wouldn't invite her to dance the first dance. It's just that the flowers are willing but the water is ruthless.
Luther has not planned to get a wife yet.
Now the guests have almost all left. In addition to Ruth, there is a couple standing in the distance. They look like Ruth's parents.
This is normal. A girl can't come to this kind of banquet alone.
Luther also understands the purpose of the girl calling him.
The partner of the first dance at the ball, the purpose of this banquet is a blind date. The girl should have some fantasies in her heart.
Ruth looked at Luther's face, golden hair, handsome face, and tall and handsome figure.
Plus the identity of Pompey's heir.
For these noble descendants, it is like shining gold.
She is already sixteen years old this year, not too old, but not too young. There are two paths for her destiny. One is to marry a noble descendant with a surname like most noble descendants.
The second is to find an heir of a noble family like Luther to marry.
The difference between before and after is obvious.
So she came to the castle of Pompeii with her parents, and the girls who came this time also had the same purpose.
She was lucky to get Luther's first dance. She was surprised because she thought she was not the best among the girls present.
She was frustrated because Luther did not have further communication with her after the dance.
But she didn't want to give up, because Luther was too perfect for a noble descendant of her status.
Territory inheritance.
Handsome face, handsome figure.
In the eyes of the girl, he is definitely elegant.
Such an excellent noble, if you miss this time, it will be difficult to find the next time. So although she could see that Luther was a little perfunctory about this banquet.
But she still plucked up the courage and called Luther.
Maybe there is a chance?
"Well, um, can I write to you?" Looking at Luther's handsome face, Ruth had a fever and her face was red.
She lowered her head slightly, looked at her toes, and said shyly.
"A very innocent girl." Luther commented like this, of course, it was a preliminary evaluation. Aristocratic ladies are often drama queens. Whether they are really innocent or not, you can only know it after a deeper understanding.
However, it is undeniable that Luther had a good first impression of this girl.
Now the second impression is also very good.
Good looks, good figure.
Her personality seems good too.
Although I don't want to get married now, it's not bad to have a female companion.
Beautiful girls always make people happy physically and mentally.
"Okay." Luther smiled elegantly in the girl's surprised expression.
