Your notoriety is known to everyone

Chapter 120 The marriage in another world is in progress (4k)

What determines a person's mood is not the environment, but the state of mind.

After being exhausted for a long time, Luo Gesi ignored the slight soreness coming from various parts of his body and kept chewing these words in his heart.

He leaned on his cane and walked tremblingly to the door of the villa. He looked at the morning sky blocked by clouds and felt the light moisture in the air, sometimes mixed with the caress of the breeze.

"Is it going to rain?"

A low murmur came from his mouth, and his thoughts seemed to become much quieter at this moment.

"Lord Baron, are you not going to dance anymore? Don't you say that every day you don't dance is a failure of life? Why do you look like a sage now~"

The corners of Alina's lips were slightly raised, and her eyes curved into two long arcs. With a graceful smile, she gently supported Rogers' arm to help him step onto the parked car parked in front of the villa. Prepare to return to the enchanted carriage in Braidland.

"The most regretful thing in life is to give up easily what you shouldn't give up, and stubbornly insist on what you shouldn't insist on." Rogers' eyes were clear, without sadness or joy, and he calmly and indifferently said to the girl beside him. .

"Logos can always say something very reasonable no matter what the situation is." Lufia rubbed her sleepy eyes. She followed her two friends into the carriage and saw Rogers sitting down and holding his cane. He put it aside, looking ready to take a rest, and praised it sincerely.

As the coachman's whistle sounded, a faint jolting feeling spread throughout the carriage. Rogers' body was affected by this jolting feeling and swayed slightly.

He sat on the right side of the carriage by the window, and Alina was opposite him. The little princess who got on the car last was at the innermost side of the carriage. Even on the road, Alina arranged a lot of knowledge for her to learn. with matching test questions.

The luggage of the three of them was stuffed into the magic book by Logos. After hearing Alina's instructions, he took out the test paper and pen and ink and pushed it to the table in front of Lufia who looked sad.

The gloomy weather also brought a bit of dullness to the carriage. Among the three of them, Alina was the only one smiling.

Luo Gesi closed his eyes and calculated in his mind how long it would take to save [Incomplete Praise] before he could completely suppress Alina in terms of strength.

Although the opponent's physique is not as good as that of a warrior of the same level, it is completely beyond the level of a normal magician. He seriously doubts that this is also the ability brought by the opponent's special code.

Creation, time and space, and destiny, the bonuses with any of these three attributes are more buggy than the last, and it is still a question of how many destiny bonuses Alina has.

Luo Gesi suddenly thought about his [Time Retrospective Special Code]. It not only helped him escape the fate of being punched to death by Kevin, but also interfered with the usurpation process of the Shadow Demon.

From this point of view, this special code should have the ability to escape and change fate, if it also has the possibility of growth and change...

"What, do you want to dance again? Do you need me to help you again tonight?"

Elena, who was watching Lufia do the questions, seemed to notice something. She raised her eyebrows slightly, stared sideways at Rogers, who had her eyes closed in deep thought, and asked in an inexplicable tone.

"Ahem, no, thank you." Rogers slowly opened his eyes. He opened the magic book seriously and placed it on the edge of the table. His fingers slid slightly on the pages, as focused as he used to study the Sage's Codex.

【inform! The gods of the Abyss cast their gaze upon you. 】

[The honest businessman said that most of the special codes have the possibility of evolution, but the special codes of the space-time genus are a bit special and require very special methods to promote evolution. However, he happens to have such a method, and he generously said that he can work with you. Use this to trade. 】

When Luo Gesi saw that he could evolve, he felt happy. As for the following content, he simply ignored it.

Because it was neither a task nor a sacrifice, but a deal proposed by an upright businessman...

After that, several gods also expressed their opinions one after another, but none of them gave a direct explanation. They even encouraged Logos to make some grand sacrifices quickly in exchange for special gifts in the fields they controlled.

It wasn't until the gods saw that Luo Gesi didn't react much that they all looked away without interest.

For him, just getting the news that he can evolve is already precious.

The growth of the active skills of [Ignorance Special Code] requires the improvement of the character; every increase in the effectiveness of [Contract Special Code] is closely related to the bottomless pit; as for the [Enlightenment Special Code], it is noted that it can evolve into a miracle. Mark, until now no clue has been found.

From this point of view, there are no clear rules to be found for the advancement of the special code functions or the evolution of the special codes themselves.

Just thinking about it, he suddenly discovered that his special gift was either erasing memory, manipulating thinking, signing a contract, or controlling time.

"Why do I have an inexplicable sense of sight? It seems that the male protagonist of a certain type of drama in the previous life often had similar skills..." Luo Gesi kept muttering in his heart.

As my thoughts drifted, time continued to pass.

The three of them had some refreshments in the car and used them as lunch.

A dull and powerful knocking sound came from a distance, and the speed of the carriage seemed to have slowed down a lot. This meant that they had entered the urban area from the wilderness where they could run at will.

The sound of wood being planed gradually became clearer, and people's shouts and various noises rang out one by one, intertwining into a chaotic movement in the air.

Rogers turned his head and opened the curtain. He saw carriages transporting building materials and tools driving back and forth on the road. Many workers were sitting directly on simple wide cargo boxes, either beating stones with heavy tools or sawing them with saws. wood.

Next to the road crowded with traffic, there is a construction site filled with dust and sawdust, and the supervisor's sharp and piercing shouts are constantly coming from the depths of the construction site.

"If magicians could put aside their dignity and fame and directly participate in the work, how much faster would the project be..."

Luo Gesi looked at the scene outside the window, rubbing his chin while imagining the scene of magicians working together.

After a while, the carriage drove past the outskirts of the city where construction was in full swing. On the way to Earl Braid's Mansion, the attire of the pedestrians on the road also changed significantly.

The closer the people are to the Earl's Mansion, the wealthier they are, and the more courageous they are to set their sights on the carriage at the Earl's Mansion.

Most men here wear light, breathable shirts, usually white or light-colored, paired with black or dark trousers. Women mostly wear wide-brimmed hats to protect themselves from the sun, loose tops paired with plain long skirts, and the edges of the clothes are decorated with details such as flowers, lace or feathers.

When the crowd saw Rogers' face, they all took off their hats of different styles in a gesture of respect for the Lord.

Many citizens showed admiration, and some even directly praised Luo Gesi loudly. However, there were also some people who were hiding their disgust and resentment towards Luo Gesi. They either bowed their heads deeply or simply bowed their heads. After the ceremony, he left in a hurry.

After observing the changes in his own territory for a moment, Rogers then raised the car curtain again until he returned to the Earl's Mansion.

When he just arrived at the mansion, Earl Breed called him to the pavilion in the garden and detailed the recent series of changes in the East.

The most talked about thing is that although the "Eastern Territory Unification Association Coin Provisional Council" was able to be brought together, when it came time to actually discuss specific matters, the lords started all kinds of wrangling, so that so far, there has not been a single resolution. can be officially passed.

Rogers leaned against the back of the wooden chair, holding the handle of the teacup in his hand, looking down at the dense heat.

"We have to be faster. Private lending institutions will definitely grow uncontrollably. After the factory system officially takes shape, the securities trading that has been gradually flourishing before I was born will probably also usher in a big explosion.

“If an institution with monopoly power of currency issuance and manipulation is not established as soon as possible, I have a hunch that many bad situations may happen to the economy at any time, and by then, unless the institution has been truly built and functioning, no matter how much money there is, The knights and the constables are useless."

After taking a sip of tea, he placed it on the table with his fingers clasped together, looked at Earl Breed on the other side seriously, and spoke in a low and firm tone, extremely seriously.

Although he doesn't know much about finance, various famous events in history and the occasional news about finance still give him some basic understanding of it.

"Son, although we already have the right to mint money and collect taxes, the hasty integration has greatly stimulated the royal family. If we continue to push forward in a large way, the war may no longer be a rumor." Earl Breed looked at it. He replied with an unchanging expression, holding the manuscript in his hand.

"Then let's first build a private bank with some functions." Rogers pondered for a moment, thinking about the history of the Medici family, which was world-famous for the Renaissance in its previous life.

"I have considered this method, but I have been struggling to find a suitable supporter." Earl Breed spread the manuscript on the table, his face showed a more serious look than Rogers, and he spoke with a slightly dignified look. road:

"You are already fourteen years old and will soon be fifteen."

Luo Gesi was startled when he heard this. He suddenly heard this inexplicable reminder, and his thinking could not be completely changed for a while.

“What we just said is very important, but these are only important if the surname Breed can be continued.

"My child, you are not young anymore. It is time to take on more important obligations for the family." Earl Breed's words were sincere and direct. He had a trace of worry and some kind of earnestness. He spoke directly. Staring at his son.

Luo Gesi did not expect that after coming to another world, he would face the legendary forced marriage, and this form of forced marriage.

Just when he was trying to unleash Sir Humphrey's skills and forcefully avoid the topic with a bunch of long and difficult sentences, Earl Breed seemed to see through his son's intentions.

The earl raised his hand to signal Rogers to stop talking. At the end, he told him a few words about the family's future in a meaningful tone, and then waved for him to leave.

……

The heat of midsummer is gradually dissipating, and the day has arrived for the resumption of school at St. Helte.

As the light on the return notice lit up, Rogers, Alina and Lufia were sent to the large lawn of the Hilmi Campus dormitory area by the magic circle.

The second-year students return to school much earlier than the first-year freshmen. Originally, Rogers was still thinking that if he could wait for the first grade to start, he could find a junior student and trade for a trial in front of the school. If he has a quota for refining, he can go in and chat with the senior sages, and maybe they can help them find some ideas for the evolution of the [Time Tracing Special Code].

However, the reality ruthlessly forced him to completely give up this originally unlikely opportunity.

After experiencing Professor Idrul's homecoming speech and the opening ceremony in the auditorium, the students had a few days of leisure before the official start of classes.

Among them, the students were very surprised by the way Rogers was leaning on a cane. Especially after they heard that Rogers had not laid the foundation stone, the discussion about him became even more intense.

"I went to squat on the lawn next to the Hilmi Academy Library for a day. The guy was there this morning. I observed carefully and found that the guy's legs were really broken! He was not pretending!"

In the social hall on the first floor of the Morost Court dormitory tower, a student said with great certainty to his friends around him.

"Ah? Really? I heard that not only was his leg disabled, but he didn't even seem to be able to attend the groundbreaking ceremony."

"Then is he still qualified to continue to participate in the promotion ceremony to the silver rank? The ceremony will start in a few days, right? The chief has always been nervous, because he is afraid of failing the promotion."

"If he is promoted directly, he will be inherently weaker than the chief in terms of position. But if he is not promoted, wouldn't he be no different from us?"

"Fart, even if he doesn't get promoted, he can turn you into a madman with just a wave of his hand. Do you dare to go to him and have a magic duel to prove your courage?"

"Ha! That's not necessarily the case now! That guy's legs are broken, as long as he runs away fast enough! He may not be able to catch up with all of us!"

"What do you mean by us? Only idiots whose brains have been invaded by dwarfs can possibly go with you to provoke that kind of thing!"

"Stop the quarrel, stop the quarrel. Her Royal Highness Princess Ilias has also enrolled in school. It is rumored that after she entered the school, she had a big fight with the third prince in the dormitory area of ​​Augustus Court. It seems that it was also because of that Guy."

"Stop spreading rumors, the world doesn't revolve around him..." When a certain student retorted with disdain, he suddenly saw a purple-haired and fierce-looking student from Hilmi Academy stepping into the hall. :

"Shh... shut up now, the devil's evil-faced dog is here to collect interest..."

After the Magic Duel Competition last semester, many students did not hastily choose to pay back all the credits. Instead, they kept some of them without repaying them, and then paid a certain amount of credits to Rogers on a regular basis, in order to pray that the other party would not give up. Pay too much attention to them.

And now, it was time for Derek to come to collect the debt with his little notebook in hand.
