"If possible, I'll live next door to you like back in New York. It'll be easier to take care of you this way."
Old Albert said as he followed Chen Mo upstairs.
Chen Mo naturally wouldn't object. After all, there were plenty of rooms in the castle. Old Albert could choose whichever one he wanted.
If it was someone else, Chen Mo might not want them to live next to him, but Old Butler Albert obviously had a different treatment. Chen Mo was the same as him. He also missed the days in the Brooklyn Dojo. With a trustworthy old butler by his side, a lot of things would be very convenient.
The two quickly went up to the third floor and walked along the spacious corridor to Chen Mo's room on the easternmost side.
Pointing at his room, Chen Mo said to Old Albert, "This is my room.
You can choose whichever of the two rooms next to it. However, the room on the south side has better sunlight. "
Chen Mo's room was at the end of the corridor on the east side. It occupied the easternmost area on this floor. It had windows on all three sides. The scenery was pleasant and the area was very spacious.
The two rooms next to each other in the corridor were on the north and south sides of the corridor. The area was less than half of Chen Mo's room, but it was still very large.
Chen Mo pushed open the door to the room on the south side and walked in first.
Old Albert followed behind Chen Mo and looked around the room. It was already close to dusk. The sun would set soon, but it was still bright.
The golden setting sun shone in through the wide windows, illuminating the entire room brightly and warmly.
Old Albert, who hadn't seen sunlight for a long time, stared at the sunlight through the window for a while. Then he slowly turned his head to look at Chen Mo and nodded with a smile.
"This one. It looks very comfortable."
"Okay!"
Seeing that Old Albert liked it, Chen Mo was also very happy.
Although the two of them were master and servant in name, and Old Albert had always regarded himself as a servant, Chen Mo had always regarded him as family, a trustworthy companion!
Therefore, Chen Mo couldn't treat him like an ordinary servant. Chen Mo still cared about his feelings.
Previously, he had asked Albert to help him manage the Hydra because he would be away for too long and needed someone he could absolutely trust to help him manage it. In fact, he knew that compared to managing the Hydra in the underground base that never saw the light of day, Albert was more willing to return to the dojo to accompany Wang Kun, or to continue painting in Liverpool's square!
Old Albert did not have any ambition or desire for power. His true hobby was painting!
When he first met Chen Mo, he was actually a painter!
Now that the Hydra was completely stable, it wouldn't be too long before he returned. There was no need for Old Albert to continue staying there.
Therefore, Chen Mo brought him to the real world to retire!
After all, this was Chen Mo's root, and the world of the Avengers still had to face the threat of Thanos in the future. If he snapped his fingers again, half of the life in the universe would disappear. Who could guarantee that Old Albert would not be one of them?
And here, Old Albert could still do what he liked to do!
After booking a room, Chen Mo led Old Albert downstairs to tour the castle while talking.
"Eddie, there are too few oil paintings in this castle, and I don't like the works of other painters. When you have time, paint a few more paintings. Decorate the hall, corridor, and rooms as you see fit."
Chen Mo's words seemed to be squeezing labor, but when Old Albert heard them, he couldn't help but smile.
Over the years, he had rarely painted. Managing the huge Hydra took up too much of his energy, but now, life seemed to have returned to the past. He was very willing to pick up a painting brush again and complete the "task" given by Chen Mo!
"As you wish, my Master!"
Chen Mo laughed and suddenly looked at Old Albert and asked.
"Eddie, do you know how to ride a horse?"
Old Albert's eyes flashed with a trace of reminiscence when he heard this, and he nodded.
"I rode before."
Chen Mo knew that the "before" that Old Albert mentioned should be almost a hundred years ago!
"Let's go, I'll take you to ride a horse and familiarize you with your new home!"
After Chen Mo finished speaking, he took a step forward and put his hand on Old Albert's shoulder. The next moment, before Old Albert could react, he felt the scene in front of him suddenly change. When he could see clearly again, he found that he was no longer in the castle, but standing on a grassland!
Old Albert looked at Chen Mo and found that he was looking at him with a mischievous smile, just like when he had disguised himself as him in Liverpool and scared him.
Old Albert had long been accustomed to Chen Mo's occasional little mischievous outbursts, and he couldn't help but find it funny. However, Chen Mo would only reveal his true side in front of him. In front of everyone else, Chen Mo would always be the dignified and cold commander, the master of the Hydra!
Old Albert was not in a hurry to ask questions. Instead, he turned and looked at the surrounding environment.
In front of him was a large grassland. It was late autumn, and the grass had already turned yellow. However, the vast yellow grassland, the distant continuous forest, the mountains, and the blue sky and white clouds still made Old Albert, who had not been in contact with the outside world for a long time, stare blankly for a long time.
When he looked along the grassland to both sides, he found that he was not only on a grassland, but on a peninsula that jutted into the sea. The borders on both sides of the grassland were blue sea water, and on the closer side, he could see a golden beach and layers of white waves on the seaside!
Old Albert finally turned around and looked behind him. A mountain hundreds of meters high appeared in front of him. He was now at the foot of this mountain. Not far away, an asphalt road that extended from the coast turned up the hill and disappeared into the dense trees.
Old Albert looked up at the top of the mountain. A retro castle made of yellow rocks was faintly discernible under the cover of the trees. Old Albert turned back to look at Chen Mo.
Chen Mo did not keep him in suspense and nodded directly.
"Yes, the castle above is where we were just now."
Chen Mo said as he stretched out his arm and gestured toward the grassland in the distance.
"This is my home in this world. Now, it is also your home!"
Old Albert looked at Chen Mo's sincere gaze, and a warm smile appeared on his face as he nodded gently.
His original home had long been destroyed in the war. When he was in New York, the martial arts school was his home. In Norway, the Hydra base was his home. Now, this was his home!
