Start as Inherited Baroness

Chapter 17 The road is steep

After entering the forest valley, there is a formal road. Although it is not very wide, it also makes Simon and his party travel faster.

After walking for about an hour, a few cavalrymen suddenly caught up with them and were stopped by Kelley's mercenaries.

"Who are you?"

"I am Baron Gill's butler, Chad Rick, and I want to see Sir Simon." He smiled.

Kelley looked at him like a hawk, waved his hand gently, and a mercenary galloped away immediately.

After a while, he arrived at Simon's side and passed the message: "Lord Simon, Sir Chad Rick wants to see you."

"Damn! Chasing here, it must be bad!" He spat, his eyes sank.

Simon looked back and saw that there were only a few cavalrymen, so he said: "Bring him over, only one person is allowed."

"Yes!" The mercenary rode over immediately and whispered to Kelley.

Then Sir Chad was taken over, and the other light cavalrymen stayed where they were.

"Sir Simon, my Baron Gil wants to discuss something with you." He said with a smile on his face, pretending to be respectful.

"What is it?" Simon asked calmly.

"Uh... Baron Gil has a daughter who is about the same age as you. I think you can understand?"

Sir Chad manipulated his mount to get closer to him and whispered.

The voice was too low, but Simon still heard some meaning. He was silent for a while, and suddenly shouted: "Take him down!"

Aire and Sarit beside him immediately cheered up, and surrounded him with seven or eight light and heavy cavalrymen, and easily pulled him off the horse.

"What are you going to do!?" Chad was shocked and shouted.

The few light cavalrymen he brought with him were suddenly agitated, but they were surrounded by Kelley's people and did not dare to move for a while.

"Tell me, what exactly is Baron Gil going to do?" Simon drew out his sword, pointed at Chad, and said coldly.

"Sir Simon! We in Changlin Castle have absolutely no ill intentions."

Chad looked at the tip of the steel sword that was so close and shining with cold light, and sweat broke out on his cheeks.

Simon showed a cold look on his face, and gently pushed the tip of the sword forward, piercing his skin, and a thin line of blood flowed down his neck.

"Ah! I'll tell you! I'll tell you!" Chad was frightened to death, and his slightly round face was all pale.

Simon put away the sword a little, staring at him with cruel eyes.

"Baron Gill received a secret letter from Earl Anderson, asking us to find an opportunity to kill you..."

Sir Chad had no integrity at all, and told everything he knew and guessed.

According to him, Baron Gill had no idea about Simon, and he was completely following the orders of the Lord Anderson.

And Earl Anderson wanted to obtain the title of baron for his beloved illegitimate son, but due to various reasons, he could not be enfeoffed in his own territory.

He had been planning for this for many years. This time, he wanted to take advantage of the Marquis of Val's expansion of territory to gain a piece of territory in the West.

But his precious illegitimate son had no military merit, so he could only go through the back door, which was not easy. It was not enough to divide the military merit alone.

In addition, the Bavarian royal family also left 30 pieces of territory in the West, which were directly included in the royal territory. Fifteen of them were directly governed to support a border army.

The other half was only distributed, and the taxes were also used to maintain the expenses of the border army.

Simon was one-fifteenth of the territory that was distributed.

He was the most rootless type. Although he had a little background as a marquis, he still looked the easiest to bully.

After listening to Chad's narration, Simon's heart sank to the bottom, and he secretly said: "This Eagle City is really not that easy to go to.

Don't go to towns along the way. I'm afraid that there are more than just Earl Anderson staring at me."

"Sir Chad, you go." Simon waved his hand, put the sword back into the sheath, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Yes! Yes!" He was still in shock and wanted to take the horse, but was stopped by Aire.

He rode a top-grade warhorse, which was worth a lot of money. The feud had already been made, so there was no reason to return the horse.

In addition, it could also be used to warn Baron Gil.

As for killing Chad? That's not the case. Killing someone would offend Baron Gil to death.

The location of Changlin Town is not bad. It is located next to Green Valley Avenue and guards the main traffic route. There is no need to provoke a deadly enemy.

Chad didn't dare to take the horse again. He had to walk to the light cavalry he brought with him, let one of them give up his mount, he rode on it, and then led the others to gallop away.

The poor little one was left, his legs dancing fast, chasing desperately.

At this time, Kelair rode over and said, "Lord Simon, let's hurry up.

We will be out of the range of Changlin Town soon."

"Okay, speed up!" Simon also knew the importance of the matter and ordered.

Aire changed to a superior warhorse, and the medium warhorse he was originally riding was given to a heavy cavalryman.

In the blink of an eye, several hours passed, and Changlin Castle did not send anyone to chase.

With the size of Baron Jill, if all his troops were mobilized, he could almost deal with Simon and his men, but most of his elite troops would have to fight.

There was no need to hurt his bones like this when doing private things for the feudal lord.

Afterwards, Simon's team passed through several villages and a baron's castle. Because of sufficient supplies, they did not make too many stops.

The kingdom has occupied the Forest Valley for nearly a hundred years, so it is much safer than the West Sett, but at night, there are still many dangers in the wilderness.

Occasionally, he could even find ghosts floating in the forest, which opened his eyes.

However, these ghosts were not very dangerous, and even civilians could hardly be hurt by them. They just looked a little scary.

It was hard to see alien races, as this area was the activity range of the human race.

The subhumans of other races were either killed or expelled, or used as slaves.

They walked for more than ten days like this, and the progress was not bad. If they continued like this, they would reach Eagle City in at most a month.

At noon that day, the sun was shining brightly. The further south they went, the hotter the temperature became, and the armor absorbed heat quickly, so they rested longer at noon.

Simon was hugging Winness to learn the magic language. At this time, the two of them were already very familiar with each other.

If it weren't for the inconvenience of being in the wilderness, they would have started to applaud for love long ago, and hugging each other was commonplace.

The progress of learning magic was not bad. Now he had memorized more than 200 magic words, and he could understand many parts of the earth meditation method.

In addition, every evening, he also learned swordsmanship and archery from Sarit, and now he has made some progress.

His one-handed weapon skills have reached thirty points, the level of an apprentice, but his archery skills are a little worse, only at the entry level, and it is difficult to master the accuracy.

At this time, Simon was about to get close to Winness, but suddenly a dozen villagers came over from a distance and started talking to the mercenaries on guard outside.

It seemed that the villagers had encountered some trouble and wanted to ask for their help.

Simon didn't pay too much attention and continued to immerse himself in Winness's soft bosom...

After a while, Carlyle's deputy Rick came to interrupt at an inappropriate time: "Sir Simon! The villagers here have a commission.

The leader would like to invite you to discuss it."

Winness gently pushed Simon away with a charming look, her face flushed and shy.

Rick swallowed his saliva and his eyes were a little stunned.

Simon saw all of this, and said with a slightly cold expression: "Lead the way!"

"Ah! Yes! Yes!" Rick thought to himself that it was not good, and hurried to lead the way.
