1034 Untitled
The debate on whether to be a man or a dog has already been settled in Beta's "hometown", which can be summed up in a very simple sentence: Kings, ministers, generals, and ministers are better than being kind.
So Beta never considers such issues, because he always thinks he is independent and free. He can work for others and do things for others, but this does not mean that his boss should control him and trample his dignity on the ground.
If you do this, the boss will either be beaten black and blue, or be beaten back badly. So in the current information plane, the more important the person is, the more high-ranking the person is, the better they speak, and occasionally they can chat with you.
Of course, there are also some bosses who like to bully certain people, because he sees clearly that the essence of these people is a dog, not a person.
But now, Beta saw that Monica seemed to want to be a person. Although the former Monica was stern and had once been the hidden queen, she was still a 'dog' in essence, the dog of the spider queen, the dog of power, and the dog of ambition.
And now Monica, although she still wants to be the Pope, has the same idea, but her essence is different.
For Monica's change, Beta is happy to see it happen. After all, she was also Sasha's older sister, so it was impossible for Beta to really ignore her.
Tonight's moon is covered by dark clouds. Without candles, torches, or spells like light sources, if you go outside, you will definitely be blind.
A carriage with an oil lamp on it slowly came to the front of the temple. The driver quickly jumped off the carriage, knelt down on the ground, and used his back as a step.
Claire stepped down on the coachman's back.
The Hotel California team guarding the entrance of the temple immediately went to Beta. When Monica was away, Beta had the final say on the temple, and this order had already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Beta met Claire in the living room.
Looking at Beta, Claire remembered Billy's evaluation of this man, a strong man who can't see through.
Originally, Claire only regarded Beta as a very powerful mercenary. Although he was a little admirable, in his heart, he had a superior, even overlooking attitude.
I am a nobleman, you are a commoner, this is the difference.
But now, after receiving Billy's guidance, Claire realized that the man in front of him was indeed very different from ordinary mercenaries.
He looked casual, but not vulgar. His appearance and fair skin are not characteristics that a mercenary should have. Most importantly, in normal interactions, this mercenary is neither arrogant nor inferior. He is almost equal to any Get along with people, whether they are nobles, ordinary people, or ordinary soldiers.
This is indeed not the attitude a mercenary should have.
And the other party is sitting here quietly, holding a glass of fruit wine and drinking slowly, and there is a feeling of calmness like an abyss.
Human beings' feelings about things come from different cognitions. Some people think a thing is good, while others think it is not worth mentioning.
Claire looked Beta up and down for a while, feeling a heavy pressure more and more. He took a deep breath without any trace, and then asked, "Ms. Celia is not here? Can you tell me where she went?"
Beta replied indifferently: "Inquiring about the whereabouts of a beautiful lady late at night is not a commendable act. Your Excellency Claire, if it is important, please wait here. If it is not important, please come back at dawn tomorrow." .”
Claire liked Monica, quite a bit. Men in this complex will have a kind of resistance to all the males around the target.
Although he didn't like Beta wandering around Monica in the past, but at that time he felt that Beta was a mercenary, and even if Monica was interested in Beta's "masculinity", it was only a temporary need.
In this country, sexual behavior before marriage is not valued so much, they value life after marriage more. Therefore, he felt that Celia was just playing for fun, and after a while, she would naturally abandon that mercenary. Power and wealth are the most important things.
But now it seems that this mercenary is not simple, very not simple. Celia may also feel his difficulty. That's why you stayed by his side all the time
Claire felt a bit of a headache, her body healed, it should have been a very happy thing, and finding the woman she loves was also a happy thing, double happiness... Thinking of this, Claire suddenly felt that the world seemed to be full of malice.
Why come Li Lin first, and then Bowens and himself to grab a woman.
These two people seem to be better than themselves, this world is really unfair.
He sighed inwardly, and his expression became unhappy. After looking at Beta for a while, he said: "Your Excellency, I understand the matter of Celia and come and talk to her in person. Now I will convey the words of Prince Bowens to Your Excellency."
"You are my subordinate now, don't keep wandering around in my woman's temple, come back and do things for me now. You can't mess around with me after taking my money."
Beta laughed when she heard this: "Marquis Claire, please go back and tell the prince. The fifty gold coins were my reward for helping him get out of trouble. Speaking of which, I remember that the reward for a mercenary like me is It will be every half a month, and until now, he hasn’t paid me a salary, so I’ve helped him patrol the manor for quite a while.”
Claire looked at Beta in surprise. After hearing these words, he finally realized that he was really far behind Count Billy.
The other party has already seen that Li Lin is not an ordinary person, but he has more contact with him, but he has always only regarded him as a stronger mercenary.
After a long sigh, Claire nodded disappointedly and said, "I understand, I will tell the prince truthfully."
The two sides chatted politely for a while, and then Claire left the temple.
Sitting in the carriage, Claire looked from the window at the temple that was receding behind, feeling quite sad.
He sat back in the carriage, his mood fluctuating like the carriage.
A few years ago, he always thought that he was a rare talent among the nobles. If it wasn't for the situation, if it wasn't for the physical fatigue, he would definitely break the situation and lead the revival of the family.
But now, he found that, not to mention the ministers far away in the royal city, Count Billy alone was far superior to him in terms of ability.
And a Li Lin made himself feel even more ashamed.
The other party seemed to be three or five years older than him, and he could be regarded as the same age, but the other party was already strong enough to make a vicious man like Earl Billy dare not move.
But myself and the prince, before, regarded each other as a thug.
But the only fortunate thing is that he now knows about Li Lin's extraordinaryness, but the prince doesn't.
Speaking of which, he was considered a member of the royal family. If his uncle Bowens died, would there be one less enemy on his way to the throne of the king
In the dim compartment, Claire's eyes reflected a strange light.
