4. The Earl's butler visits
After Windsor sat down at the desk, before Sean could speak, Windsor spoke first:
"Sean, this...is this a new world? I found that the furnishing style of this house is completely different from ours in Azeroth."
Windsor looked around, looking as confused as Sean who had just arrived in the other world two days ago.
"You are right, this is not Azeroth, but a new world." Sean nodded.
"It's really like this. I didn't expect that I would have a chance to live another life, even though it's no longer Azeroth." Windsor sighed.
Windsor's sigh was filled with disappointment, joy, unwillingness and confusion. Sean didn't know what to say for a while.
After Windsor calmed down a little, Sean said, "By the way, Windsor, what was your main job in Azeroth in your previous life?"
I'm embarrassed to say it. Sean really can't remember where he heard the name "Wendsor" before.
"Oh, it all started with the raid on Medivh's Tower." Windsor's thoughts returned to the distant past, and he slowly talked about the events of his previous life.
...
Reginald Windsor was once a soldier under Anduin Lothar (Regent of the Kingdom of Stormwind), and he followed Sir Lothar in raiding the tower of Medivh (the most powerful mortal mage in Azeroth)
.
In Medivh's Tower, he also saw his future ending: dying at the claws of the black dragon.
Decades later, he grew from a soldier to the marshal of Stormwind City, and deciphered the conspiracy of the black dragon Onyxia.
Although he had long seen that he would be killed by the black dragon in Medivh's Tower, this could not stop him from upholding justice and the truth.
In the end, he exposed the black dragon's conspiracy and died under the black dragon's claws.
...
Windsor slowly told his story, and Sean listened quietly beside him without speaking.
Marshal of the Kingdom of Storm! He really summoned a big shot! There is a reason why the explosion rate of golden cards is so low.
Half an hour later, Windsor finally finished talking about his life that was full of glory but ended in tragedy.
"Sean, I've basically finished telling my story. Can you tell me about this world? What is this world like?"
Windsor clenched his fist, and a gray energy emerged from his fist (this gray energy was the fighting spirit given to him by the system to imitate the aboriginal power system).
"Is this the power of this world? It's really weak." Windsor frowned dissatisfied.
...
Faced with Windsor's question, Sean didn't know how to answer it.
The memory of this body's predecessor has become fragmented, and he doesn't know what the world is like.
However, in his current predicament, he can ask Windsor to help him come up with ideas. After all, two people can definitely think about the problem better than one person.
"The place where we are now is the only large city in the southwest of the Principality of Lane, Yoen City." Sean began to tell about his previous experience: "I am the fourth child of Archduke Lane, and I left the royal capital because of some disputes with my father.
..(Two hundred words are omitted in the middle)…In that battle, all the mercenaries and servants I led were killed, and the materials for building the territory were also stolen by bandits. What do you think I should do next?”
Sean told Windsor everything he knew.
Windsor had been listening attentively, and he couldn't help but frown at the end of the story.
"The development of a territory will definitely go much smoother. Although I have never managed a territory, I have met many lords and know many ways to manage a territory.
But now we can’t reach the territory and we don’t have gold coins, so this is a big problem.”
"Oh, I have been thinking about what to do next." Sean sighed: "If it doesn't work out, I will sell the territory first and move around Yoen City first. When we become stronger, we will find a way to redeem it.
Return to the territory.”
"That's a good idea..." Windsor nodded in agreement.
Before he finished speaking, Windsor suddenly stood up alertly and looked in the direction of the door.
"Sean, someone seems to be coming. I can feel him coming to the door." Windsor lowered his voice.
"It should be a servant of the residence. It's hard to explain why you're here... Well, let me try the button in the system first." Sean remembered that the [Summon] button had changed to [Cancel] when he had just summoned Windsor.
Summon], which should be able to send Windsor back to the system.
Sean immediately called up the system and focused on the [Cancel Summon] button.
"System? What is a system..." Before Windsor could finish speaking, a white light flashed and the person disappeared.
It is worth mentioning that as Windsor disappeared, the shield he placed on the floor at his feet also turned into white light and disappeared with him.
...
After Windsor was returned to the system, the [Cancel Summon] button next to [Golden Town Infantry] on the follower interface turned green again, and the [Stonetooth Boar] and [Secret Guardian] buttons next to
The Summon button is still gray and has not changed.
In other words, you cannot summon different followers by canceling the summons.
It seems that you need to be more careful when choosing to summon followers in the future.
...
At this moment, there was a knock on the door in Sean's ears.
"Come in!" Sean turned off the system and said to the door.
As soon as he finished speaking, a male servant opened the door of the room and walked in.
This valet was specially sent by the Earl of River to take care of Sean's food and daily life. After these two days of contact, Sean was already very familiar with him.
"What's the matter?"
"Dear His Highness Sean, it's like this. The Earl's butler is here and said he has important matters to discuss with you. He is waiting for you in the living room." The manservant replied respectfully.
The butler of Earl River actually came, which surprised Sean.
He has been staying here for two days. Through communication with the guards and servants, Sean knew that the Earl of River and the housekeeper were not in the city these two days. He did not expect that they would actually come back today.
"Okay, go meet him."
Sean straightened his clothes and was led by the valet towards the living room.
...
After a while, Sean came to the living room.
As soon as he entered the living room, Sean saw a middle-aged man wearing a black tuxedo and a bow tie. This must be the butler of Earl River.
The butler held the coffee brought by the servant with both hands, but he did not drink it. Judging from his cold and red hands, he just wanted to warm his hands with the coffee.
Seeing Sean's arrival, the butler hurriedly put down the coffee in his hand and stood up, saluted Sean respectfully, and said: "Dear Your Highness Sean, I am William, the steward of the Earl of River. Please forgive us for our poor hospitality.
In the past two days, the master led the guards to eliminate the group of bandits that attacked you, and obtained more than 50 enemy emblems. This group of bandits has been completely wiped out by our master."
"Really? This group of bandits has been wiped out?" Sean cheered up. Just now he was worried about this group of bandits, but he didn't expect that they had been wiped out.
"Of course." The butler replied with a smile.
"What about the supplies I brought to the territory? Have the grain, horses, livestock...all been recovered?" Sean asked hurriedly.
The housekeeper didn't seem to expect Sean to ask this question. He was slightly stunned, but he quickly responded: "At that time, the guards surrounded the bandits' camp. The bandits knew that they had no hope of winning, so they burned the camp and committed suicide.
Already.
Everything inside, including the supplies you brought, was completely burned by the fire. Only the metal emblems they carried and some gold coins that could not be burned remained."
"Is that so?" Sean frowned.
"That's right. The master returned to the castle early this morning. I hope you can go there now. I have more important things to discuss with you," the butler continued.
"Now?"
"That's right, right now."
