In the corridor at the entrance to the castle hall, there are many collections of the Earl of the River. Among them are the heads of monsters, severed armor, and a rusty long sword.

At the end of the corridor, there is a mirror the size of a basin hanging. I don't know if it is made of crystal or glass.

Sean looked towards the mirror, and what he saw was an unfamiliar face, which made him startled slightly.

There was no mirror in Sean's residence, so he didn't know what he looked like during the three days of time travel. He could only see his blurry face in the water when he washed his face every morning.

It wasn't until he saw this mirror that Sean clearly saw what he looked like in this life.

The appearance in this life is still somewhat similar to that in the previous life, but the appearance is a little more handsome than in the previous life.

After all, Sean comes from a big family like Violet, and his ancestors are all fish people... That's wrong, his ancestors are all handsome guys and beauties, so it's normal to be handsome.

Even after watching it for a long time, I am still a little fascinated.

I have been single for a long time, and I look pretty.

...

Earl River, who was sitting on the main seat, was in a very good mood at this time and looked quite radiant.

He accidentally saw Sean looking in the mirror at the entrance of the hall, and walked towards Sean with a smile.

"Your Highness Sean, I have been waiting for you, and you are finally here!"

Earl River had a very good impression of Sean. After all, Sean made him easily make a lot of money, so Earl River was particularly pleased with Sean.

At this time, Sean was facing Earl River sideways. When he heard Earl River's hearty laughter, Sean immediately turned around and faced him.

At this time, Earl River was not walking towards Sean alone. He was accompanied by a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old.

Sean took a look at the girl and realized that he actually knew the girl!

Isn't this the librarian girl I met in the Magic Guild Library? Why did she appear here?

…

But when Earl River and the girl approached, Sean realized that he had identified the wrong person.

Although this girl looks very similar to the librarian I saw yesterday, the librarian girl has fiery red hair, but the girl in front of me has blond hair. It is obvious that they are not the same person.

Earl River naturally noticed that Sean frequently looked at the girl behind him, so he introduced to Sean:

"She is my daughter, Jessica River. Although she is only 15 years old, she is the only heir to my earldom."

"Your Highness Sean, it's a pleasure to meet you! I'm Jessica, and I've often heard my dad talk about you recently." Jessica showed a meaningful smile on her lips and stretched out her hand towards Sean.

"It's an honor to meet you, Jessica." Sean kissed Jessica's hand (the normal etiquette for nobles to greet noble ladies).

At this time, Jessica was wearing a light green simple long skirt with a white unadorned belt tied around her waist. Her long blond hair was surrounded by a slightly playful gauze hat with ribbons and flowers. There were no accessories on her body, except for

There is a silver bracelet on her left wrist.

Although she was dressed simply, such a simple outfit made her stand out among a group of nobles wearing expensive dresses.

"Who is this?" Earl River also noticed Windsor, who was wearing civilian clothes standing behind Sean.

"His name is Windsor. He is my newly recruited guard captain. He saved my life from the assassin today." Sean replied.

"Oh, I remembered it. I thought I heard William say it when I just woke up this afternoon, but I forgot about it when I was still awake. Are you not injured?"

Earl River looked at Sean with concern.

"I'm fine and not injured. According to Matthew, those assassins were sent by the Black Hand Brotherhood."

"Assassins from the Black Hand Brotherhood actually came to Yonn City." Earl River frowned.

"But don't worry, I will ask William to try his best to help you find the mastermind behind the scenes." Earl River patted Sean on the shoulder and comforted him.

"Thank you very much for doing so much for me!" Sean said gratefully.

"Haha, it's all what I should do... The dinner is about to start now, and all the nobles in the city are almost here. I want to go on stage to give a speech, so I won't talk to you for now.

Even if you encounter an assassination, don't take it too seriously. After all, most of the field lords in the Principality of Lane have been on the battlefield.

You will understand when you go to the battlefield. Basically every day you will encounter one or two assassins who want to kill you. These assassins will disguise themselves as soldiers, officers, or even your personal guards...

Forget it, let’s not talk about it, just have fun tonight and treat this place as your home!”

After Earl River finished speaking, he took Jessica away.

...

After Earl River left, Sean took Windsor to find a relatively remote location and sit down.

After all, except for the Earl of River, other nobles avoided him, and Sean was happy to be quiet.

Now the dinner party has officially begun.

Earl River walked to the front of the main seat and cleared his throat. When all the nobles stopped talking and looked at him, Earl River began to say:

"This dinner is held to celebrate the victory in the suppression of bandits!

This time we seized a total of 36 black iron emblems, 12 bronze emblems, and 2 silver emblems. We have completely wiped out the bandits in the south. The villages and towns in the south no longer have to worry about their own safety!"

The emblem that Earl River mentioned is not the same thing as the [Black Iron Emblem] Sean received from the system. The emblem that Earl River mentioned was a round medal.

This kind of medal is issued by the warrior guild or magic guild. Warriors or magicians will receive it when they reach a specific rank, and then they will always carry it with them. If they lose it, they will not replace it.

Except for the emblem of the sky level which is made of high-purity magic crystal, the emblem of the black iron level is made of black iron, the emblem of the bronze level is made of bronze...and so on.

Therefore, the Count of Rivers displayed so many emblems, which proved that he killed so many enemies.

At this time, the steward William also directed his servants to carry a shelf full of emblems and walked over, and walked around the hall several times to show it to all the nobles.

...

When these emblems were displayed, exclamations continued to sound from every corner of the hall.

The black iron level and the bronze level are fine, but the silver level is not a big deal. Many small nobles even only have one or two silver level masters in their families. As for gold level warriors, they are generally found in the families of the nobles above the viscount level.

Seeing these emblems, there were endless compliments (offerings) and sighs (admirations) in the hall. They were all praising the Earl of River for his wisdom and prowess, and that he would lead the city of Yohn to glory.
