This chapter is "My Horse Feeds the Sheep."
— — —
On land, there are magical beasts that can release magic, which are called World of Warcraft. In the ocean, there are also magical sea animals that can release magic, which are called sea monsters.
There are no marine experts to classify the animals in the sea, and naturally, there is no classification of whales and sharks. The huge animals encountered by ships at sea are called sea monsters. The Leviathan is obviously not a sea monster. Legend has it that the Leviathan is a sea snake that can release stormy magic and sweep away passing ships.
The appearance of the humpback whale provided some topics of conversation during the boring voyage.
In the afternoon.
The Flowers returned smoothly and docked at the crude dock. It took a full three and a half days to go back and forth. When he returned to the castle, Gort, who had heard the news, introduced him to two strangers.
"My Lord, Randy Kettle and Russell Scale are both Earth Knights, and they want to follow you." Gort said, "Randy is the son of Sir Leiden, and Russell graduated from the Knight Academy. They are both very young, but have good Knight talent and initiative."
Sir Leiden was the captain of the Knight of Tulip Castle, who often guarded Levis.
Randy was the son of Leiden, which meant that he was an illegitimate child. Otherwise, the introduction would have been Leiden's second son, third son, or something like that.
As for Russell, he graduated from the Knight Academy. There was no introduction of his family background, so he was obviously a civilian.
"Randy, Russell, since you are both Earth Knights, why didn't you join the Lords' Knight teams and follow the Count to the battlefield?"
Liszt looked at the two with interest. He didn't expect someone to join him so soon.
Randy was a handsome young man, and he replied politely, "I am a superfluous person at home, not valued, and not qualified to participate in the Knight team." He did not hide his identity as an illegitimate child and openly admitted it.
Russell then replied, "The Earl chose a Knight to go to the battlefield, and I was eliminated because I had just broken through and my combat effectiveness was not up to standard. But please rest assured, Lord Baron, I will train hard and master my own Battle Aura Secret Book. I will strive to become a qualified Battlefield Knight. "
He spoke confidently, and his attitude was decent.
At first impression, Liszt felt that both of them were good, but he would not easily recruit followers. He immediately said, "A Knight chooses to follow the Lord loyally, and the Lord also chooses a Knight to fight side by side. I hope that in the following period of time, we can establish a friendship."
"We are willing to accept Lord Baron's inspection!" Randy and Russell replied together.
Liszt nodded. "Since you are following me as Knight, I will not send you to the administrative office. You will be my assistants, assisting Markus in training the children and youths in the territory."
He directly threw Randy and Russell to Markus. It was not his style. The superior only needed to work, and the inferior needed to work.
After dealing with the Earth Knight's followers.
Gort reported again, "My Lord, I also received a letter in the last two days. The letter was written by Zambrotta. Do you remember him? He was Lytton's former tutor. He was punished by the Earl for condoning Lytton's beating of innocent civilians and lost his title. "
Liszt remembered after Gort's reminder.
Zambrotta was also a Lord Knight. He was hired as Lytton's tutor a few years ago and had been in and out of Tulip Castle a lot. It wasn't a big deal that Lytton was beating up a commoner, but the reason why the count was angry was that he didn't learn good things at such a young age. So Zambrotta was stripped of his title.
"Zambrotta wrote to you, what did he say?"
"He just talked about the past, but his thoughts were revealed between the lines. He may want to come to Flower Town and hope to get an official job."
Flower Town was indeed short of officials, but Liszt would not easily recruit people. "Do you know anything about him?"
"I haven't had much contact with him, and I don't know much about his character, but I know that he has a very outstanding talent. Well, he has traveled around the Iron and Steel Ridge Kingdom and seven vassal countries, and he can always say a lot of amazing customs and rare things."
Traveled around eight countries?
Liszt heard this and his heart moved. "Is that so … Adviser Gort, continue to keep in touch with him. If he is willing to come to Flower Town to work, you will be responsible for receiving him if it is inconvenient for me."
After all, Zambrotta was directly deprived of his title by the Earl.
Deprivation of title was a major crime second only to exile among the punishments for the aristocracy. As the Earl's son, he could not ignore the Earl's will and recruit such a person as an official of his own territory. He could only be appointed in private, and he could get the information himself to protect his father's face.
In one day, he would have three more subordinates.
Liszt was in a good mood. So many people were optimistic about him, indicating that his promotion to viscount was the general trend.
"By the way, Adviser Gort, you and Teacher Markus should cooperate more and build the temporary stronghold on Black Horse Island as soon as possible. Don't delay."
"Please rest assured that I will always put the important matter of Black Horse Island in the first place."
"At the same time, keep the news of Black Horse Island in your heart, understand?"
"Understood."
… …
After dealing with official business, Carter came to report on the affairs of the castle.
"Master, during the three days you were away, Mrs. Morrison and I have selected twenty children, ten boys and ten girls. They have begun their internship in the castle, mainly working in the afternoon, training during the day, and staying with host families at night. "
After Carter finished speaking, he asked, "Do you want to meet him?"
"It just so happens that I have nothing to do, so let them come over and meet me. By the way, tell me their names." Liszt said casually. In fact, he mainly wanted to know what kind of little girl Maggie was specifically mentioned in the smoke mission.
The young servants who were practicing downstairs, led by Carter, lined up one by one and appeared in front of him.
"My, my, my name is Polly, my, my lord."
"…"
Soon, Liszt met Maggie in the study.
"My name is Maggie, Master." The little girl who spoke was short among her peers, very cute, with a few freckles on her face.
Looking at her appearance, even if she grew up in the future, she would probably be an ordinary girl.
Such appearance conditions did not meet the secretary standards pursued by Liszt.
It was inevitable that he was a little disappointed, but at the same time, he was also sure that since it was not a secretary, there must be other clues on Maggie's body that would be involved in the follow-up mission of the smoke mission.
So he smiled gently, "I hope you have a good life in the castle, little Maggie."
"Yes, I have a very good life here, Master." Maggie's little face was red and a little shy. Maybe she had never seen such a handsome aristocratic lord, and he smiled so gently.
She waited for Carter to tell her that she could leave.
