Matthew's tone was so clean and sincere, which made Hughes immediately have a good impression on him, and a smile naturally appeared on his face. Hughes didn't hesitate, he nodded and responded directly: "I feel your sincerity, Matthew. Although you are indeed wrong in this matter, you are not the murderer. I don't want to pursue too much. However, light me Admit that your apology is not enough, this matter actually involves the face of the family, I think, my father will have some communication with you."
Matthews' words undoubtedly calmed the surface, but Matthew, who was very nervous, was relieved. My father had confessed before coming, and it was also very important to get the victim's understanding.
Matthew smiled bitterly and slowly replied: "As long as you understand. As for your father, the respected Viscount Gael, I am willing to accept any punishment from him."
Just after speaking, everyone had entered the living room, and the living room was already full of rich tea fragrance. The earl inhaled gently, then smiled and nodded gently to the host.
The crowd sat on the sofa in a circle, in which Count Alpha and Viscount Gael sat on the large central sofa, while the rest sat under their heads.
After taking a sip of the fragrant tea, Count Alpha smiled and praised: "Very good craftsmanship, and the servants in the house are clever. This tea is almost better than the tea maker from Daxueshan in my house."
Mrs. Betty bowed her head slightly: "Mr. Earl is wrong, and the servants in the family are so crude that you laughed."
Count Alpha laughed: "This is not polite."
Having said that, he suddenly turned his attention to Hughes, bowing his head slightly, and then smiled and asked the Viscount: "I heard that your son, Master Hughes, has received an admission notice from the Allianz Royal Warriors Academy, isn’t he? ?"
Viscount Gael nodded and admitted: "Yes, Lord Earl, he is very lucky."
Earl Alpha smiled and shook his head: "You are too humble, Gael, the fourteen-year-old child has officially become a junior swordsman. How can it be said to be lucky? This is due to the strict discipline in your house and the hard work of Hughes itself. Efforts are inseparable."
Baron Deka also smiled and echoed: "Yes, such a small genius, even in the surrounding cities, has not heard of it in recent years."
Hughes was sitting there, listening to everyone boasting about himself, and he felt a little ecstasy in his heart, and suddenly felt that the hard work he had done in the past years had already begun to pay off, and there was a smile on his face.
However, the habit of restraint makes him still trying to suppress his joy. In the face of the guests, the first thing is not to be rude, such as being proud and forgetting.
"You're really powerful. I went to see to be promoted to a junior swordsman. At that time, I was sixteen years old, but you were two years earlier than me. I haven't heard of anyone in Guangyao City who exceeds you." Matthew couldn't help complimenting the new friend next to him.
"You have won the prize, Matthew, just lucky." Hughes said a little embarrassedly, and the joy in his heart increased a little, because the recognition and praise from his peers are more so than the ones from adults. He is happier.
Matthew whispered: "Lucky? Why don't I have this luck? Men of this age in Guangyao City have no 100 and 70, and why haven't they seen them so lucky? Hughes, luck always favors those who are prepared, I I think this is the biggest reason why you succeed and we fall behind."
Speaking of which, even Matthew was a little bit emotional. Seeing so young new friends, they have already made their dumbfounded dumbfounded achievements, saying that they are not jealous, it is false. But more is reflection and motivation. This is not to say how good Matthew's character is, but it is a habit necessary for a long-term trained noble heir.
While consolidating its own foundation and reducing errors, it is the true guarantee of the longevity of a family to absorb the strengths and strengths of others and integrate itself. This is an important concept inherited by the nobility. It is like treating a person like Matthew. Even though his character can't be so generous, strict training will always make him familiar and accustomed to such operations.
Matthew said this, Hughes is not good at speaking, he can't boast about himself, it will make people feel crazy.
"Matthew, you come." At this moment, the earl's voice suddenly interrupted the communication between the two, and Matthew immediately stood up and walked towards the large sofa in the center.
Hughes pouted, he knew that Matthew's test was coming, and he didn't know how his father would express his dissatisfaction with Matthew.
While talking to the earl, Viscount Gael watched his son's conversation with the earl's master. He clearly saw Hughes talking and laughing with each other, and seemed to be talking well. In this way, he knew in his heart that his son actually did not care about each other's mistakes, and even that they might become friends.
Earl Alpha also stood up at this time. With a serious expression, he said sincerely to Gail and Betty: "Actually, I am here today to apologize to both of you and your son Hughes. My son Matthew The impulsive words of Ka Manor put Hughes in great danger. Although Hughes itself was not weak and resolved the crisis, it was ultimately caused by my son’s arrogance. Here, on behalf of Earl’s Court, Xiang Gai Viscount Earl and Mrs. Betty, and the direct victim Hughes, express my family’s deep apologies. Please forgive the three."
At the same time, Lord Earl lowered his noble head, and his son Matthew even bent his waist to ninety degrees, which is the second major etiquette after kneeling on one knee!
"Master Lord Gail and Mrs. Betty forgive me for my mistakes, and I am willing to bear any punishment for both of them!" Matthew's words can no longer be described in sincerity. It should be said that Gail and Betty did indeed repent from them. Mind.
Looking at each other, Mrs. Betty nodded with a sigh, Viscount Gael pursed her lips, and nodded in response. The sheriff at the side looked in his eyes, happy in his heart, his eyes narrowed into a slit. He wanted to speak very much, expressing joy at the peaceful resolution of the two hatreds, but the identity of both parties was much higher than him. At this time, there was no room for him to intervene.
"Master Earl, please get up, Betty and I, feel your sincerity, this is the mistake of the children, you should not bear the consequences." Viscount Gael said slowly.
Count Alpha got up, he sighed, patted Gail's shoulder, but said nothing, but gave up his position and placed his son Matthew in front of Gail.
He already understood what Gael meant. The other party has basically forgiven his family, but still has to teach his son a small lesson. Although he was lucky, the importance of an heir to the family made him understand that most of the other party would not let Matthew go by just apologizing.
Of course, although he didn’t understand how Gael wanted to do it, it was obvious that his son suffered at least a little loss of face. As a swordsman, Gael couldn’t possibly use bullying and force to clean up. Matthew's.
Matthew is also very interesting. Although he secretly complained, he still did not retreat. He bowed his head and apologized again: "I am willing to accept any punishment for my mistakes."
"Very good! Men should be brave enough to take responsibility for their mistakes!" Viscount Gael nodded, and then took two steps over the open space in the middle. He took off the saber on the waist and shook the sword flower.
"In my position, fighting with you is really bullying you, so I will not take off the scabbard, nor will I use arrogance, simply rely on the strength of the body to attack you with a sword, and give you the opportunity to use it Fighting with all his strength to block. No matter what the result is, I will never pursue this matter again, would you like it?" Gael stared at Matthew, and Yu Guang covered the count at the same time.
Sure enough, the count frowned, but then relaxed again, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. He also nodded gently towards Mrs. Betty, apparently already understanding the meaning behind Gail's approach, and was very satisfied.
Matthew just listened to the first half of the sentence, inevitably scalp tingling, cold sweat. His own father, Count Alpha, is the master who is about to break through to a senior swordsman. Even if he played against his father who held the Lianshei sword, he would definitely be shot off in one blow. What's more, he is now facing a real great swordsman, but that is two more powerful forces than his father.
Fortunately, though, he was still calm, and after suppressing his fear, he could not help but relax a lot.
"Even the sheath long sword, don't need to be arrogant, physical strength, simple attack, block with all strength! This is simply to release water, I am already a sixth-level swordsman, can't even stop this! I don't believe it! Ha ha, look Come, my father's prediction is indeed true, sincere apology, plus the power of Earl's Court, Lord Gael finally has some scruples!"
Thinking of this, Matthew raised his chest and faced Gael's attention: "Adult, willing to accept your punishment, no matter what the result, I will become a good friend with Hughes!"
This remark was sincere, but Gail also heard another feeling, and he couldn't help laughing. Because, that feeling is actually a kind of self-confidence!
"It's still a kid!" Gael also sighed, remembering the blood and impulse in his youth, and the arrogant belief that the world is not as good as mine. But now, when Gael has become a powerful great swordsman, he dare not dare to be arrogant and proud, and talk about the greatness of the world. He deeply understands that he does not have that qualification yet. Perhaps, in his lifetime, he cannot reach that level.
Suddenly in a flash, Gael nodded to Matthew and slowly raised his sword, posing in a standard attack style.
Matthew also sternly put on a defensive sword style, staring at the opponent without blinking his eyes.
Beside, Count Alpha, Madame Betty, Baron Deka, Hughes, and all the maids, stared at the center of the living room with wide eyes. Watching the shot of a great swordsman, even if the opponent does not need to be arrogant, it is also a huge gain for those who use the sword, and for those who do not understand the sword, it is definitely a wonderful performance worth remembering.
"I shot!" The warning sounded. When everyone was ready for the final preparation, there was a shocking scene. Viscount Gael unexpectedly used an extremely slow, snail-like speed. He stretched the sword toward Matthew Ping, the blade did not change a little bit, and even the weight of the thin sword caused the blade to be stressed, and the tip of the sword drooped slightly.
Matthew froze for a while, and he had only one thought in his mind: not even so much water!
In the living room, besides Lord Alpha still frowning, Hughes and others were stupid, and they couldn’t believe what they saw in their eyes. They also had a big question mark in their minds: Is this putting water? ! !
However, Gael's slender sword was not affected by anyone, and still steadily stretched out towards Matthew. It was still at that angle or speed, which did not change!
Seeing that Lord Viscount's thin sword had reached less than one meter away from him, Matthew still condensed his spirit despite his puzzling face, shaking his sword forward, and the high-speed operation of the grudge, which made the sword appear blue. . When Huss looked at it, he knew that it was the fighting strength of the sixth-level swordsman.
"Choke!" A short whisper, the two swords intersect!
Matthew suddenly widened his eyes, his eyes full of inconceivable colors, his sword holding hand suddenly raised back, and the sword in his hand simply out of hand, flew directly back.
After a snorting, his people rolled back like a ball and rolled out three or four heels until they were near the corner of the wall. They only crawled on the ground, and their heads were just lifted and they were weak. Posted on the ground.
Gail shook a sword flower, put the sword back, and hung it on his waist again. He nodded to the earl, who was obviously tense, and then the latter took a breath and quickly stepped forward to lift his son.
"Please don't worry, when he spit out the blood, the effect will be better." Gail exclaimed faintly.
This sentence made the smiling Earl's face instantly change, "Spit blood! He is just a child, Gael!" The Earl hurried and scolded. He had never imagined that the other party had such a heavy hand. Let a strong swordsman vomit blood, one can imagine that this is by no means a minor injury.
Gail was expressionless, and while the sheriff and the maids looked at the bloody, blushing, and countenance count in horror, Shi Shiran returned to the sofa without explaining anything.
Earl Alpha was frustrated by Gail's attitude. His previous apology was now completely forgotten. He was full of flames in his head, and his eyes and face were flushed.
At the moment when he pointed to the viscount's explosion, Matthew suddenly spurted blood, but then he smiled instead, crawled on the ground and beckoned to his father, said vaguely: "Father, don't be angry, cover Uncle Er helped me a lot."
"Child, how are you? Does your chest hurt?" Hearing his son's voice, he had no time to tell what he meant. Lord Earl immediately knelt half on his son, gently wrapped Matthew in his arms, his face was blue and his eyes were red. .
Matthew seemed to enjoy his father’s arms. He smiled more brilliantly and reported his father’s peace more clearly: “It’s really okay. Father, Uncle Gal’s sword made me understand a lot. The most important thing is that one in my body The big hidden danger has been removed and I feel unprecedentedly comfortable."
"A big hidden trouble?" The son's explanation made the count froze for a moment, but then, more anxiously licking his atrium like a flame, he quickly turned his head to look at Gal and asked urgently in a pleading tone: "What Hidden danger, Gail, has my son always been hurt?"
Gail stood up again, with a heavy weight on his face, and nodded and explained: "Probably something went wrong with the sword practice, and the gas veins next to the heart in the body were damaged. This injury, except for occasional dizziness and a slight chest suffocation, was dying. There will be no other abnormalities before. Until the qi is too strong, the veins of the air are exploded directly, hitting the heart. At that time, it cannot be recovered."
