"That's amazing, brother. Do you think I will be as powerful as that sister Qiao Li Bessemer in the future?"
After hearing Viscount Fergus's description of the Bessemer family, Sarah's eyes lit up and she looked at Gray expectantly.
Although she is young, she is quite smart. In the past six months or so, the huge changes in her living environment have made her realize the importance of strength, so she is full of expectations for the training of the Blood Warrior.
"Yes, definitely."
Gray smiled slightly and affirmed.
As Gray brought up the topic, the atmosphere specially created by Baron Harris and the three men was broken, and Gray and Sarah were finally able to participate in the conversation.
However, the atmosphere became a little subtle. The expressions of Baron Harris and the three people twitched slightly, obviously very dissatisfied with Gray's anti-customer approach, but Gray didn't care about the attitudes of the three people at all.
Respect between people is mutual. Since the other party doesn't respect the two of you, you naturally don't need to respect the other three.
In the final analysis, it was the Harris family themselves who caused it, and he was just a passive counterattack.
An hour later, a servant came to inform that dinner was ready, and everyone moved to the Harris family dining room.
Dinner is fried fish in green water, sweet and sour salad noodles, and musk beef soup. It can be seen that the Harris family has prepared this dinner very carefully.
Qingshui fish is raised and sold by the Ford family. The meat is delicious and does not have the fishy smell of ordinary fish. Just add some sesame oil and fry it, and it will become delicious food immediately.
The salad contains not only vegetables but also fruits, with a little bit of sweet and sour taste, giving it a unique flavor.
Musk beef soup should be cooked with wild musk beef for several hours. It has a very rich taste. After one sip, the aroma will fill your lips and teeth.
Gray had a great appetite and finished his portion quickly but gracefully, and then said to the maid serving next to him.
"One more!"
In the end, he stopped after eating three servings.
"This amount of food...? Sure enough, half of the civilian blood is flowing in his body."
Baron Harris frowned slightly, and his dislike for Gray became even more intense. Kevin Harris and Lady Bess almost had their disdain written on their faces.
Gray didn't care about this at all. The three Barons of Harris didn't want to see him, and he didn't care about their opinions. Of course, the most important thing was that he had to eat.
Not only because I don’t want to go hungry in the middle of the night, but also because of the need to improve my strength.
The second transformation that is currently taking place in his body will consume a lot of nutrients every day. If the nutrition cannot keep up, it will affect his cultivation progress.
Compared with the progress of cultivation, the opinions of Baron Harris and the other two people are simply irrelevant.
After dinner, Bernal, Ellis, and Caroline were called into their bedroom by Kevin Harris. They did not call Gray and Sarah. The alienation in this was self-evident, and Gray and Sarah Sarah had no intention of shamelessly joining in the fun.
"Bernar, I'm not talking about you. You are too tolerant of that guy with untouchable blood. The more you do this, the more he will think you are easy to bully."
In Kevin Harris's room, Kevin Harris frowned and said.
"That's right, eldest brother is usually too tolerant, which makes that guy become more and more aggressive. Last time, he actually stole my share of the blood beast's blood..."
In such an atmosphere, Ellis thought of the losses he had suffered at the hands of Gray during this period, and the resentment he had accumulated against Gray exploded, and he said angrily.
"Cousin, you have to help me and my eldest brother vent their anger this time."
"Don't worry, I will definitely make him look good this time."
Hearing Ellis scold Gray, Kevin Harris said with a cold look in his eyes.
"Cousin, please don't—"
Bernal spoke up to stop him, but was immediately interrupted by Kevin Harris.
"Cousin Bernal, I know that you have the overall situation in mind and are not willing to conflict with him easily, but it is impossible for my cousin to let you and Ellis suffer like this in vain. You just have to watch."
"Cousin, you will make it difficult for me."
Bernal smiled bitterly.
This is the Harris family, and he can't stop what his cousin is going to do. If he informs Gray about it, it will make his cousin angry. After all, his cousin is venting his anger on him, although the method is a bit outrageous.
Next to her, Caroline glanced at Kevin Harris, frowned slightly, and then relaxed after a moment.
After more than a year apart, when she saw her cousin again, she was a little less friendly and a little more distant, and she did not agree with the other person's actions.
Although the cousin could embarrass Gray by doing this, it would inevitably break the trusting relationship that the eldest brother and Gray had finally established. It can be said to be extremely disadvantageous now that they are about to face "challenges" from other viscount families.
If there is a grudge between the two and they cannot work together to deal with the challenges of other Viscount families, the Fergus family will ultimately lose.
And she didn't think her cousin could really "beat" Gray easily.
After spending more than half a year with Gray, she got to know him to some extent. Although he usually seemed unobtrusive, he was definitely an extremely capable person.
The last time, Ellis snatched his share of the blood beast's blood, he actually turned around and invited Lord Linde, who was usually neutral, to stand up for him. It can be seen that he is definitely the kind of person who does not lack means.
This time he tried to "push" Gray. Most likely, he failed to pummel Gray, but instead made it impossible for him to step down.
It was late at night. After taking a bath in the bathroom of the Harris family and changing his clothes, Gray was led by a male servant of the Harris family to the bedroom assigned to him by the Harris family.
The gown has been sent to be cleaned by the servants of the Harris family, and it should be ready tomorrow morning.
Generally, noble families will have a clothes drying room. This kind of room is equipped with runes that can quickly dry clothes. Even in seasons with low temperatures, heavy clothes can be dried overnight.
Under the leadership of this valet, Gray came to a bedroom at the far end of the corridor on the second floor of Harris Castle.
"Master Gray, this is your room."
This male servant was a young man in his early twenties. After bringing Gray to the bedroom door, he immediately turned around and left without even opening the bedroom door for Gray. This is very rude for any servant of the family. .
He raised his eyebrows. Although he felt that the servant of the Harris family was very rude, he was not a servant of the Fergus family after all. Gray was too lazy to care about it and stretched out his hand to push the door open.
However, the next moment, his expression turned cold, and he suddenly turned back and looked at the servant who was already more than ten meters away.
"Wait a moment."
"Master Gray, is there anything else?"
The young servant stopped, turned back slowly, and asked with a slightly guilty look.
"Are you sure this is my room?"
Gray said with a sullen face and cold eyes.
"Yes, it is."
Being stared at by Gray's sharp eyes, the young servant seemed to be being stared at by a beast more powerful than a tiger and leopard, and he was a little awkward when speaking.
This is normal. With Gray's current strength as a mid-level blood warrior, how can it be comparable to ordinary tigers and leopards? The most important thing is that he has participated in actual combat, killed people and beasts, and has accumulated some murderous look.
Normally, these murderous intentions are not easy to detect, but when he is angry, these murderous intentions are aroused, immediately making the young servant, who is an ordinary person, run cold all over.
"It seems that the Harris family is not ordinary thrifty."
Gray's eyes were cold.
Just now, he opened the door and immediately found that the sheets and plush quilt in the bedroom were extremely worn, and many traces of sewing could even be seen.
That's it, it's a little worn out, but as long as it's still usable, he won't care about it.
During his stay at Fergus Castle, although he lived an aristocratic life, he did not become picky because of this and could not tolerate sheets and plush quilts with patch marks.
But what made him even more angry was that there was a musty smell coming from these sheets and plush quilts.
If I sleep in a room like this for one night, I'm afraid my whole body will smell of mold tomorrow.
There is no doubt that this is a deliberate attempt to trouble him.
