Pendor Empire In Other Worlds

Vol 2 Chapter 70: Challenges and Responses 8

  Looking at the old baron's shocked and inexplicable look, Lothar felt satisfied with his evil taste.

But he still forcibly maintained the image of a brainless admirer, only gave the old baron two or three seconds of symbolic answer time, and continued to talk excitedly.

"Seventeen times, more than once a year.

The seventeen injuries were just to protect the Grand Duke’s.

Count the shameful sneak attacks on him by the enemy and the damage he suffered when he took the lead in destroying the fierce pirates. Your Excellency was safe and sound for almost no month.

It is really admirable.

Hey, by the way, do you remember the gangster who was wiped out by the Viscount at the beginning of this year? "

There was still a pause of two or three seconds, and Lothar continued to preach in the same tone as the Baron's expression "I don't know what you are talking about".

"Yes, Moraduo and the'Iron Bucket'.

Those guys have always boasted that their pirate group is as unbreakable as an iron barrel.

Ha, as a result, wasn't it smashed by the troops led by the Viscount?

I heard that Moraduo was still dreaming until he was executed. Haha, you said it was ridiculous.

And..."

The voice is loud and loud, the speed of speech is fast, the ups and downs, and the emotion is full.

Unlike Zapon Erkui, who was indulged when he was swearing, Lothar's speech could not be interrupted at all.

Except for Zapeng Erkui himself, who was anxious to get angry, everyone else, including those nobles who followed the old baron to find fault, all listened with relish.

In all fairness, except for the performance of underestimating the enemy in this war.

Lothar still recognized the merits and character of the guard of the principality.

Even in the encounter that ended in failure, Lothar's performance of leading the cavalry to attack at the most dangerous moment of the battle was not low in his heart.

Therefore, these flattering words did indeed have a bit of true meaning.

But to say that it was really just a brainless lick of the dog, that would be really wronged by Lothar.

The reason why he keeps touting Hollum is to break the claim that Lothar arrogantly compares himself with Hollum in the mouth of Baron Zopponque.

Lothar couldn't deny it directly, although he had never said anything like that himself. But the source of this remark is the supporters standing behind him.

Of course, he couldn't just admit it like this, because in the hearts of other nobles, Lothar was indeed inferior to Hollum.

Yes, even if he used his own power to make a critical turn in the battle, he still couldn't compare to a defeated general.

why?

Because Lothar's biggest contribution was won by sneak attacks when the barbarian army was scattered.

Although Hollum was defeated, he was defeated in front of dozens of times the enemy because of the disparity in power.

The troops commanded by him still maintained the "miracle" of fighting will despite the damage of nearly 90%, which won him unanimous praise from the nobles of the principality.

If this war continues to erode, then he will naturally become the backer to replace the Grand Prince like the previous Viscount Trin.

Now that the war is simply won in the end, the ‘loss’ of the encounter is not inexcusable.

In this way, the means used in the war is a very important basis for the nobles of the principality who do not understand military affairs to comment on their merits.

Sometimes Lothar really wanted to complain.

Do you say that a semi-commercial country that relies on sea trade to develop and grow has a positive style for Mao?

Shouldn't you like "no matter black cat or white cat, catch the mouse is a good cat"?

However, it is a pity that the cultural concept of a country is formed in the joint action of the country's long-term historical development and the natural environment.

That is not something Lothar can comment on or change at this stage.

All he can do is accept reality.

Therefore, touting Hollum, in a deeper sense, is to cater to the long-term values ​​of the nobles.

To put it bluntly, Viscount Hollum was just using a weapon against the enemy.

Zopeng Erkui used it, and Lothar could also use it naturally.

By stealthily changing the concept, he can't be more familiar with it.

Turning the old baron's affirmation of Hollum's merits into admiration for himself was just the first step in Lothar's operation.

In comparison, the old baron's methods are too crude, and people can see the strong ‘utilization’ at a glance.

As for Hollum's own flattery, there is a sense of no trace of the spring rain.

It's just that, every question of "Do you know...?" is enough to make the roles of the two people turn around in the hearts of the onlookers.

After all, one talked about the hero's deeds with great interest, while the other hesitated to respond.

Isn’t it clear who is the one who truly recognizes Hollum’s merits?

But then, Lothar's topic began to change.

If you just tout Hollum's achievements, you can only dissolve the accusation of Zuopeng Erkui.

The nobles like warriors who face challenges head-on, not cowards.

...

"...By the way, do you know what Viscount-sama's favorite hobby is?"

The uninterrupted chattering stopped again, Lothar stared at the old baron scorchingly.

Different from the previous pause, Lothar showed a gesture that he really wanted to listen to Zopon Erkui's opinions this time.

In this regard, the old baron, who finally recovered from the series of deeds in Hollum, expressed a dazed look.

‘Practicing martial arts, women, clearing pirates? ’

‘D, who cares about the hobbies of someone you don’t know well? ’

"I mean, you know what Viscount Holm's usual hobbies are?"

‘Maybe’ thinking that the old baron hadn’t heard the question clearly, Lothar repeated it, still looking at him expectantly.

"Uh, of course I practiced martial arts. Your Excellency is an extraordinary martial artist~www.readwn.com~Zopeng Erkui, who can reverse the negative image of the family, is still a bit quick-witted after all. After a long silence, he gave a The answer seems to make sense.

"what?"

Lothar frowned as if he heard some joke, waved his hand and said disapprovingly.

"What kind of martial arts, that can't be regarded as a hobby.

Viscount-sama’s favorite thing on weekdays is dart fish, dart fish!

It is said that he once dart to a sharp-nosed shark of more than two hundred kilograms in the waves.

He thought it was a sailfish at first. "

After talking about the last story enthusiastically, Lothar finally smiled as if he realized that the other party didn't understand the "worship" person.

He squinted his eyes slightly and looked up and down the old and strong baron diagonally.

"The next admirer.

After all, who are you? "

Before the old baron introduced himself, the ancient repair knight behind him winked and said in a weird tone.

"Don't you know your Lord Lothar? This one, but what about the famous baron "Zopon Erkui" in the Principality."

"Zopeng Erkui...Oh," Lothar broke out the sudden long voice, "It turned out to be Baron'Trin'."

As he spoke, his body had already stepped back four or five steps, and he patted the front of his body with his hand, as if it had been stained with something dirty.
