Chapter 228 227. Unfortunate Ruvel
Lezhiman opened his eyes and looked at Ubemo with a full mind of doubts.
Why did he suddenly bring up Bui?
After thinking about it, Lezhiman could only pretend to be calm and pretend that he knew nothing.
With a sigh in his heart, Ubemo felt how much he cared for Lezhiman, and now the other party finally understood him.
At this moment, Ubemo looked at Lezhiman with a gentle look, then raised his head, closed his eyes slightly, and tried to hold back his tears of joy.
After a few seconds, Ubemo found that his eyes were still a little dry. He blinked slightly and said, "You continue to study, I will go to find books first."
Lezhiman breathed a sigh of relief. He would rather face those hypocritical nobles than see Ubemo.
...
"Ganar is old, Ma Enli, you should have made a choice early, Xisong will definitely welcome his new master." Forna shook the transparent red wine and said softly.
His voice was a little low, but it seemed majestic, and at the same time with a hint of weirdness, as if full of danger.
Marenli sat across from the long dining table covered with a gorgeous red tablecloth, looking at Forna with a classic aristocratic hairstyle from afar, and sighed inwardly.
Once upon a time, he should have been sitting on the main seat, while Forna had no chance to enter his manor. Perhaps one day, seeing himself traveling, Forna might be as excited as a domestic dog.
But now, the long time has smoothed the temperament of the other party's nouveau riche. He is more like an aristocrat than others, because he controls the power, even if that power may be lost at any time because of Ganar.
One thing Marenli had to compromise was that Ganar was really old. He had not attended those activities for a long time, like an old man in his twilight years, quietly waiting for death.
So, Xisong will eventually usher in a new wave, perhaps a new life, perhaps destruction.
But this does not mean anything to ordinary people in those homes. Instead, the nobles will undergo drastic changes, and some families may decline or even disappear in the long river of time.
Therefore, Marenli had to put down the pride of the traditional aristocracy and surrender to this first-generation viscount who had only been in office for more than a decade.
He had to make a choice for his family.
Marenli took the clear and transparent goblet with both hands, paused slightly towards Forna, then abandoned the etiquette that was deeply rooted in his bones and sipped it.
Forna's smile became more and more prosperous. He stopped shaking the goblet with his right hand, then gently tapped it in the air, responded to the other party, and then sipped it gently.
Marenli wiped his mouth with the white napkin on his neck, then smiled and said: "May the people of Xisong be able to bathe in the red holy water from Bedoun."
Bedoun is the name of Forna Manor, and it is also a famous red wine manor in Xisong.
Forna's wrinkles that were originally smoothed out became more prominent as he smiled slightly, making him look much older.
He said softly: "The red pearls of the Fedori Mountains will also be famous in Yuri, and even the royal palace of Feroza in the north will be placed to entertain many nobles."
Marenli's tiny eyes became more and more black slits. Although he knew that this was just a compliment from the other party, it did not prevent him from having such fantasies.
Yuri's grapes are indeed very famous, but there is no stable channel, and the distance is too far to transport to the northern continent.
In particular, there is a Lalasi Plateau in Ferosa, close to Rennes. It is said that "Eternal Sun" once performed miracles here, making it extremely suitable for the growth of grapes. The taste is not inferior to Yuri's best grapes, and it has even become the favorite of the nobles because of its fame.
So even if Marenli has high-quality grapes and uses the most precious craftsmanship to make wine, it is not enough to gain an advantage there. After all, considering the cost, the nobles of Ferosa prefer the cheaper Emil wine.
After talking about business, Forna felt that the dessert in front of him was even more tempting.
...
Six of the twelve seats have already fallen to me, plus myself... Forna thought of this, and his mood couldn't help but become happy.
He was originally just a down-and-out extraordinary person, but he didn't expect that he would enjoy glory and luxury one day. Seeing that the fate of the nobles who were once unattainable is now in their own hands, Forna was a little excited.
Even though many years have passed, Forna still remembers his previous identity, because it makes him feel the humility of the nobles and produces a strong sense of pleasure.
However, when he thinks of that person, he is a little worried that everything he has now may be taken away at any time. That kind of uneasiness makes him feel that the extra dessert in front of him is a little tasteless.
...
It's dark!
The heavy black clouds cover the sky, and only the occasional thunder snakes swim in the sea of clouds.
Except for the sea areas close to the land, the weather in other sea areas is extremely changeable. There is rarely a quiet time in a year. It is either thundering or accumulating thunder.
However, as long as you stay away from the thunder sea, these violent thunder snakes will soon disappear, and at most they will just make the sky restless.
However, looking at the increasingly oppressive thunderclouds outside the window, although Gallia is a little annoyed, she still doesn't show it.
As a noble lady, especially the only daughter of the Duke's family, she is not the kind of naive little girl, but will restrain her emotions.
However, after becoming a transcendent, she could feel some changes in her personality, and by controlling the "mask" that could cheat the secret medicine, she was able to become quiet again.
Once upon a time, she longed for the sea.
But now, although she loves it equally, she feels that she is not as passionate. Maybe she is a little disappointed after getting it.
The sea is not as interesting as imagined. For a long time, it is just imprisoned in the ship, far from being like a fish.
Galleria suddenly understood why the pirates were so happy with entertainment activities. It was really the only way to pass the time on the ship.
"Aiya, come and save me quickly, I'm about to lose everything." Ruvel was sitting in the entertainment room and yelling outside.
Aiya heard Ruvel's somewhat rich voice, but did not respond. She knew that the other party was looking for a scapegoat.
Ruvel dared to play cards with the first mate Will Heiners and the second mate Meiners Engels because he really thought he had too many gold coins.
She had participated several times. With her poker skills, except for winning the first few rounds, she could only hand over the gold coins in vain. She completely guessed that the other party was fishing, so she did not participate again after that.
What concerned Gallia the most was Mainus. The person who gave her a fairy tale collection last time often wore a cloak, making it difficult to see his face clearly.
Through some traces, as well as studying and chatting with Garford Gui, Leah guessed that the other party had an ability similar to that of a "storyteller".
It's entirely possible to cheat.
Will, on the other hand, is not as rough on the inside as he looks on the outside. Of course, excluding his bald head, Galliya feels that his character is as smooth as his bald head.
And he is most likely the "Animal Tamer" in the 6th position, because she once saw Will controlling some underwater creatures, and among the people on the boat, he liked gambling the most.
Galliya couldn't help but curse in her heart, maybe it was Will and Mainus' design that made Ruvel have to play cards with them.
Otherwise, why would Ruvel be so stubborn? Even though he loses every time, he still holds on and continues to play cards with the two of them. But it may be Ruvel’s inner psychology that is at work. What about pirates? Can a pirate who doesn’t gamble be called a pirate?
No matter which aspect, it is very possible, with the abilities of Will and Mainus, it is completely possible to do this.
Will's "stubbornness", "control", and "guidance".
Mainus' "psychological suggestion" and "word spirit".
With so many abilities and all aspects taken care of, Ruvel can definitely play cards with them.
The boring life at sea makes it possible for Will and Mainus to pass the time, and some spiritual consumption is not so important.
At this time, Will shouted loudly: "Aya, look more at the thunderclouds outside. They are the objects you will tame in the future. Don't waste your time in such boring places."
After all, Gallia was the only woman on the ship, which meant that she was allowed to experience life on the ship for the first time. She could not be like other female pirates in the future. Will felt that she had to take more care of Ruvel.
Mainas also spoke up: "Ruvel likes the pirate's generous style very much, Aiya, please leave him alone."
Mainas's voice was very weak, but very clear. Even though Galliya was sitting in the hall, she could still hear it clearly.
Galleria replied: "I won't disturb you."
"No, Aiya, have you forgotten how much I took care of you? And I was the one who brought you to the Black Prince." Ruvel's voice choked up after hearing this.
Galliya looked outside, but said calmly: "It's all you who made me experience this boring sea life."
"I have no more gold coins in my pocket... You can't be so heartless..."
Gallia stood up and came to the deck, looking at the raging thunder in the distance and the restless ocean, but she was not afraid.
Because the surroundings of the Black Prince were peaceful.
A few minutes later, Ruvel ran out in a panic, his eyes a little dazed, and he murmured from time to time: "Damn it, I won't be able to go to the tavern next time, and those lovely pirates will have a hard time feeling my greatness."
Gallia touched her short hair, and then said: "You can go even if you don't have money, and then force them to pay you for the drink. You are a pirate anyway."
When Ruvel heard this, his decadence disappeared instantly, and then he said loudly: "I read you right, Ella, you have a deep understanding of our pirates. When I step down from the title of 'The Greatest Pirate of the Five Seas', this greatest The title is given to you.”
Gallia was used to the other party's obsession with pirates and did not answer the call.
However, Ruvel continued to laugh and said: "But even though I think highly of you, you will never get it unless I die."
At this time, Will came up from behind, looked at the storm and thunder in the distance, and said softly: "The fog of war is about to roll in."
