"Are you sure? That caravan is disguised by those delicate nobles in the south? "
In a room in Creekwood Town, Anders nestled on a bed and looked at the thin guard.
Hearing his words, the guard's expression was a little helpless.
"Sir Anders, this is the seventeenth time you've asked me. If I'm not wrong, they must be nobles in disguise …"
"Think about it, with their stature and appearance, are they ordinary mercenaries and caravans? And they have a temperament. Although they deliberately didn't look like nobles, they didn't look like caravans or mercenaries. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that they are a group of fledglings … "
"Moreover, they also plan to go to Maple Leaf City, so I wanted to ask you if we can go together …"
The guard said carefully.
Anders didn't answer immediately.
He narrowed his eyes and asked,
"They … Did they say anything else? Other than what you told me before. "
"No."
The guard shook his head.
"They … are really just a group of young masters and ladies who pursue adventure and excitement. Sir Anders, you should be able to see that."
"Oh right, and the goods they brought, didn't I show you? That's not something ordinary people can get … "
Anders nodded slightly.
This was not wrong.
The plain wheat and Ayres's potatoes had a little bit of magic aura, indicating that they were carefully cultivated.
And this kind of thing could only be obtained by nobles.
Even some of the commoner knights and mages had no way to do so.
Moreover … Since they came for excitement and adventure, and came to Creekwood Town, it meant that they didn't encounter anything else that interested them along the way.
Thinking of this, Anders was slightly relieved.
He nodded slightly.
"Then let's go together."
Although as a retainer of the Empire's border count, he was not interested in these foreign noble young masters and ladies who loved adventure, nobles were nobles after all. Making more friends was also very helpful to expand one's connections.
Connections had always been the most powerful weapon and tool for a butler.
…
Time passed very quickly, and the night passed very quickly.
It was noon in Bluestar.
Therefore, some players chose to go offline and take a nap in the real world. Some chose to sleep in the game for the night, while others simply went offline to do other things in the real world.
After one night, the players who had regained their energy went online one after another.
The mighty caravan gathered at the entrance of Creekwood Town. The skinny guard and Anders were already waiting there.
The pass for the caravan was also brought over by the skinny guard.
After bidding farewell to some of the villagers who came to see them off, the players' caravan and the two humans set foot on the road to Maple Leaf City.
After leaving Creekwood Town, the journey became much easier.
Perhaps due to frequent maintenance, the flagstone road connecting Creekwood Town and Maple Leaf City was very flat, making the players, who had been bumpy for many days, much more comfortable.
Along the way, the players also had deep conversations with the guards and Anders, probing each other.
However, the players mostly inquired about the local customs of the Maple Leaf Territory, as well as some information about the nobles and the auction.
In fact, by this time, the players had already realized that their disguise as a caravan had been seen through.
However, for some reason, they seemed to have been mistaken for a group of noble young masters and young ladies who came to play and adventure …
This could be seen from Anders's indirect questioning of the players' origins and the faint politeness in their conversations.
Of course, the most important thing was that the guard accidentally let it slip during lunch.
When it was time for lunch, the players naturally took out their dry rations.
As people of the Celestial Empire who knew how to enjoy themselves, even in the game, the food they brought was much more superior than that of the natives of the Continent of Segers.
Especially Salty Meow.
This girl had already pulled a group of lifestyle players to make delicious pastries in the otherworld.
After being given a fruit snack that she brought, the guard couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
"As expected of a noble from the south … You really know how to enjoy yourself. This is the best food I've ever eaten in my life."
Of course, after saying that, he knew that he had let it slip.
Then, there was no then.
The players were dumbfounded at first, then they quickly understood that the other party might have misunderstood.
However, it was quite good.
Since they were mistaken for nobles, they might as well make the best of it. They were even more unscrupulous when asking about the local customs and customs. They no longer concealed themselves as caravans.
Anyway, they didn't look like nobles!
And this made the guard and Anders feel that it was normal.
However, to their regret, no matter how much they asked, these "southern nobles" were tight-lipped about their origins ….
Of course, in the end, Anders didn't force them.
After all, although he was only a butler, he was also considered a low-level noble.
Since they were so distant, why should he stick to them?
Another reason was that after further observation, Anders discovered that although these young nobles were strange, they lacked the self-restraint and common sense that nobles should have …
Of course, young people were always frivolous.
However, this also showed that even if these young nobles were nobles, they were probably nouveau riches among the nobles and didn't have a deep foundation.
Nobles were also divided into different classes.
The noble families with the deepest foundations in the Segers world all had a history of thousands of years.
Some of them even had demigods in history!
And those at the top even had the bloodline of a true god!
Especially in the Holy Mania Empire, many nobles were like this.
Of course, with the passage of time, many of these mythical families had declined or even ceased to have descendants …
Although the Earl of the Border was not such a noble, it had a history of thousands of years.
The earliest Earl of the Border was established by a Legendary Master who made meritorious contributions in the Millennial War. It was a real Legendary Family!
In recent years, although the new Earl of the Border had not broken through to the Legendary Realm, the influence of the entire Maple Leaf Family in the empire had increased as he became the new imperial candidate through marriage …
It could be said that in the circle of the empire, the nobles of the Maple Leaf Family were considered upper-class.
And this made Anders, who had always been proud of the Earl of the Border, straighten his back.
These young nobles from the south probably didn't have such a foundation.
Not only that, they weren't even nobles of the empire!
The history of the Kingdom of Iris was not as long as that of the Holy Mania Empire. The founders were only some survivors of the Magic Kingdom, so the nobles of the south were also looked down upon by the nobles of the northern empire.
Although the nobles of the Kingdom of Iris were generally richer, in the eyes of the northern nobles, they were just nouveau riches who played with magic and business.
After the change in mentality, the way Anders looked at them changed again.
These young nobles who were obviously very rich with all kinds of goods were no longer friends at this moment, but a group of fat sheep …
He had already begun to think about how to take advantage of this group of fat sheep who didn't know anything.
When he entered Maple Leaf City …
That would be his territory!
