Start As a Lord In a Viscount

Chapter 70: : Wine holder

It has been two or three days since I left Nafu City, and I am getting closer and closer to the capital.

Claire was lying in the carriage at this time, and without bringing anyone over, she brought the wolf king over as a mount. Since he didn't want to walk, he wanted to get into the carriage and was kicked off by Claire.

Followed by a row of carriages, all the grooms that Claire selected from the original shop to deliver the goods. The carriages were loaded with monosodium glutamate, shredded squid, and wooden boxes.

There were no guards accompanying him along the way, and there were several fourth-level magic scrolls in Claire's space ring, and he was not afraid of any robbers who would dare to come and rob. If there is a robber at the level of an archmage, then he will consider himself unlucky, and he has become an archmage, and he is still doing this kind of stealth. What can he do? It is impossible to invite them to do such a thing with 100,000 gold coins. The cargo of my convoy has not reached 100,000 gold coins.

The closer you are to the capital, the more horses and convoys you will encounter, and the safer you will be.

Suddenly the carriage paused, and Claire sat up in shock.

The driver outside explained in a panic, "Lord Viscount, there are strange birds in the sky!"

Claire opened the curtains, leaned on the window and looked up at the sky.

With his knowledge, he quickly recognized it. It was the transportation mount of the Royal Capital Academy of Magic. The Light Chasing Bird could spread its wings up to more than 200 meters, and could easily carry hundreds of people on its back. It was said to be the Royal Capital Academy of Magic. It was a hybrid of a magister from , which was very fast but had little attack power, and was later used as a means of transportation.

But it's not something that ordinary people can afford, at least with Claire's current net worth, it's completely unaffordable, and the threat from the air is also very big. Because its own strength is too weak, it generally has to be followed by an archmage-level wizard to resist the interference and sneak attacks of other air monsters.

Claire also saw the teenagers with their heads stretched out from time to time on the bird's back, and their eyes were full of anticipation. He said to himself, "This time period should be the time for admissions to the Magic Academy. These should be the children of nobles from various places."

Magic is not the same as fighting spirit. Generally, only those with some wealth in the family can practice it. Except for some really talented magicians, most of the magicians are from nobles. Otherwise, it would cost dozens of gold coins to do a random experiment. But your family's income doesn't exceed three or four gold coins a year, what kind of magic are you doing?

The Magic Academy officially entered the school at the age of sixteen. When Claire's family was still in the middle, his father spent tens of thousands of gold coins every year to hire some senior wizards to teach him to learn magic. At that time, you can directly enter the Royal Capital Magic Academy as a junior mage. But it is a pity that Claire finally learned the ranks of junior mages. If she entered the Magic Academy, she would definitely be a lot ahead of the rest of the students. However, when the family went bankrupt, she could only return to the Viscounty to inherit the territory.

However, the strength of these noble children sitting on the chasing bird is definitely not as strong as Claire's previous strength. The truly powerful nobles either live in the royal capital, or they live in the big cities in the kingdom, and There are also special magic schools in those big cities, so you don’t have to spend a lot of time here to study. Even if you really admire the Magic Academy of the Royal Capital, you won’t come with so many people on the Light Chasing Bird. lower their status.

"It's alright, let's go." Claire pulled down the curtain and instructed.

The coachman took a few more glances in surprise, then reluctantly took his eyes back and continued to drive the horse forward.

After another half day's journey, Claire finally saw the city gate of the royal capital. From a distance, it looked like a hill, much more imposing than Nafu City.

Claire touched her nose, "I'm back in less than a month."

After arriving at the gate of the royal capital, Claire got off the carriage and rode on the wolf king. These goods have to go through several layers of inspections before entering the capital. You can just hand them over to the people below, and you don't have to follow. Just come and pick it up.

The soldiers guarding the city didn't react too much when they saw the Wolf King under Claire's seat. They were used to seeing these nobles who rode strange monsters in and out of the capital.

However, the leader at the head still politely called Claire: "Dear Viscount, your mount needs to be subject to some control, otherwise it will not be able to enter the capital."

Claire nodded, and passed the information to the wolf king to let him not resist.

"Did you see that the soldiers guarding the city are all silver-level soldiers, and their captains are even gold-level knights who can cut you in half with a single knife, so be careful not to roam around in the capital, understand? "

The wolf king whimpered a few times, and then he honestly put on a metal ring like a collar, which is a magic tool that can instantly release electric magic to paralyze the opponent's body when the beast goes crazy and bites people everywhere. Every monster that enters the capital must wear it.

The capital is divided into an inner city and an outer city. There are more residents living in the outer city, while the number of people living in the inner city is not so small. It can also be considered that the rich merchants or nobles living in the inner city, while the outer city has less people. Most of them were ordinary residents. Of course, there were exceptions. Four of the five churches were in the outer city. Among them, the main church in the kingdom was also in the outer city. Nearly half of the largest magic academy was in the outer city.

There is no obvious architectural blockage between the inner and outer cities, which is a regional concept formed spontaneously by the residents of the royal capital.

The store that Shane opened was in the inner city. Claire rode the wolf king to the inner city. As soon as he entered the inner city, Claire could clearly feel the difference between the inner city and the inner city, as if walking from a residential area. As in the business district, a very obvious change can be seen.

"Emmmmmm, I seem to have forgotten to ask where Shane opened that store." Claire scratched her head.

But I didn't care, anyway, if you are so famous, you should be able to find it if you ask anyone.

Claire set her eyes on a girl who seemed to be waiting in front of her, "Excuse me, do you know where iodized salt is sold?"

"Are you calling me?" the girl turned her head and asked, pointing to herself.

Only then did Claire see clearly that there were two cat ears on the top of the other's head that were different from humans, "Cat ears girl?" Claire secretly said in her heart.

"Well, can you tell me where the store that sells iodized salt is?" Claire asked again.

The cat-eared lady showed a sweet smile when she saw Claire's clothes. She pointed to the pub not far away and said, "Don't worry, let's have a drink first, and I'll take you there in person after drinking."

Claire was stunned for a moment. When he first entered the capital, he encountered a wine holder?

So he refused: "Well, I'm not an adult and can't drink."

"It's alright, this young master, no one else will know about you and me." The cat-ear girl threw a wink at Claire, and deliberately lowered her body to reveal a large piece of snow~www.readwn.com~ The corner of Claire's mouth twitched, and he kicked the wolf king secretly, signaling it to leave quickly, he didn't want to be entangled by the half-orc.

"I'm allergic to alcohol." Claire said expressionlessly.

Cat Erniang took a few steps forward again, bringing the distance between the two of them a little bit closer, "It's okay to do other things without drinking. People can get drunk even if they drink juice."

"Hey!" The wolf king showed a fierce expression and frightened the other party back a few steps. As Claire's mount, he still doesn't understand whether Claire is tempted, you ugly hairless bastard!

"Please get out of the way, or my prosperous wealth will bite."

Seeing that Claire couldn't be fooled, the other party could only stomp angrily and turn away.

Looking at Claire's back, the cat-eared girl said angrily, "It's obviously very useful to these little boys, why don't you eat this soft and hard?"

The status of orcs is not high in the kingdom. They are usually sold in the form of slaves. When Claire was in the capital, he heard that a nobleman also bought a large number of orcs. A prostitute, but after a long time, there are some free people, but they are also engaged in some low-level jobs. For example, the orc that Claire met just now is probably a wine holder, and lures people to spend in restaurants with beauty, and then When you check out, you find that a lot of money is spent, and when you go to the next step, people can't find it.

The other party is also very good at selecting guests. Generally, the local people will not start. They specially select those who come to the capital and want to be intoxicated with money but have no foundation. Those people can only break their teeth and swallow when they are deceived. Obviously just now. That beast-eared girl took Claire as her target. If it was a local, where would she ask someone for directions?
