Chapter 163 (1/2)

Are you the new Lord sent by the Marquis?

Puda's words reveal a strange emotion that even Sean and Cecilia can feel. What do you seem to be looking forward to?

”Cough.” Sean showed an expression that he thought he was very reserved and modest. He grinned. The smile was very friendly, ”yes.”

Then

Sean saw a disappointed look on Puda's face.

He made no secret of his disappointment, and the naked expression froze the smile on Sean's face for a moment. Can it be said that his expectation just now was that he wanted to say a ”no”?

Sean looked at Cecilia suspiciously and whispered, ”did I fail so much?”

Cecilia thought about it and whispered, ”maybe it's because you look too young?”

Sean looked helplessly at Cecilia. The little fool's comforting words sounded unreliable at all. A lord's talent and strength have nothing to do with her age. As the youngest Marquis of strength in the Principality of lane, Athena is only 26 years old this year. Although she is about to turn 27, she is definitely the youngest aristocrat of strength in the Principality of lane.

Who would say she's still young? Or, who dares to say she is young?

Puda's disappointment confused Sean.

”I thought the new Lord would be one of the three followers of the female warrior God.” Puda is a relatively honest man. He simply has one to say one and two to say two. He won't hide his ideas at all.

Sean said reluctantly, ”I'm also a follower of Lord Athena.”

”Ha ha.” Puda smiled and said nothing.

Sean's face became a little ugly. The polite smile of ”ha ha” really reminded him of too many bad memories before. If it's Athena or Elizabeth, Sean thinks he can accept it, but if a man or a middle-aged man hehe to himself, Sean has a crazy feeling of wanting to hit the wall.

In fact, if Sean had known that Puda judged his strength according to the number and quality of followers around a lord, he would have selected several strong men who looked more powerful to support the scene, or just wait until Alfred came back. After all, in Puda's eyes, the Lord only has a burly northern barbarian follower, and it seems that the strength of the follower is not very good.

However, Puda can still ”ha ha” at the moment. The old mayor on one side has become a little unnatural: ”Lord, I have just made it clear to you that this is not our Puda town's fault...”

Sean looked at the old mayor.

The old mayor was covered with silver, his face was deeply wrinkled, his figure had begun to shrink, and his body gave off a rotten smell. Even if Sean didn't understand this, he knew that the old mayor in front of him would not live for a few years. But even so, he has been making every effort to contribute to the development of the whole town over the years. Otherwise, he would not say the words ”just ask the new Lord not to be too harsh”.

”I don't mean to blame you.” Sean shook his head gently and said, ”I have a thorough understanding of the situation in the town. It's not your fault. At the beginning, it was abandoned and became a land without owner. If I were the mayor, I would do the same in order to survive. ”

At this point, Sean stood up and saluted the mayor slightly: ”I'll solve the problem of habinder's snake.”

”At present, there are two or three hundred members of habinder's snake. They are all murderers who have really fought in the war. You saw the situation in the tavern just now.” Puda's eyebrows wrinkled. He also stood up and said, ”and habinder himself is a lower silver strength. Although his mercenary regiment is relatively weak in the three nearby towns, his own strength can definitely rank in the top five It is said that the heavy hammer you saw before is not his opponent. ”

Puda's words are a little straightforward, which is easy to misunderstand. He is questioning Sean's ability. Even if Sean and Cecilia knew that Puda didn't mean that, it still sounded a little uncomfortable.
