Chapter 1 The young master of a noble family
, Heron Kingdom.
Silverpine Town.
Clavel Castle.
Under the bright morning light, the castle stood high on the plain like a golden giant, and a winding river stretched around the castle into the distance.
The inner castle garden is colorful, especially the blue iris in the center of the flower bush, which is in full bloom. The breeze blows and sways gently, as charming as a blue enchantress.
It's been three days, Richard sighed, he knew he couldn't go back! Rubbing his sleepy eyes, he was now lying on a rocking chair in the garden, with a bandage on his head and a thin blanket covered by the maid.
Every time he opened his eyes these days, he felt like he was in a dream.
Obviously, he was a clerk in Class 996 in Shanghai. As a child who grew up in an orphanage, he lived every day in the company cautiously and cherished this job with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan.
But three days ago, he had a rare indulgence and made an appointment with a netizen of the opposite sex for a drink in the evening. As a result, when he woke up and opened his eyes the next day, he found that the world in front of him was completely unfamiliar to him.
Through these few days of observation, he found that this was an environment similar to medieval Europe.
He is the second son of Baron Clavel. He has an older brother, a mother who cares about him very much, and the baron himself, a stern but kind father.
Most of the people around him are Caucasian. For example, his personal maid Serena is fair-skinned and beautiful, with long golden hair. She is very youthful and beautiful.
After inheriting the memory of the original owner, he discovered that although the original owner was thirteen years old, most of his memories were about eating, drinking and having fun, and there was also a small amount of knight training. He thought this might be related to the original owner's identity as the second son. It must be related!
Richard's lazy look was also deliberately acted out according to the memory of the original owner in his mind. After all, no diligent worker ever enjoyed the life of a noble young master.
"Master Richard, are you awake? Do you want some afternoon tea? There is also freshly baked caramel cake in the kitchen, which is your favorite. Do you want some too?" Serena saw Li Cha woke up and came over with a smile.
As Serena approached, a fresh scent of orange blossom floated into Richard's nose, which smelled very good.
Serena is sixteen years old, three years older than Richard.
Here, the first benefit of time travel is reflected. The first is to become younger, from thirty years old to thirteen years old.
The second benefit is that he has become handsome, from a plain-looking passerby to a tall, thin and handsome boy.
The beautiful sixteen-year-old girl is already fully grown. She wears the uniform gray maid uniform of the castle. The slim-fitting outfit outlines charming curves. She has fair skin, a high bridge of nose, and deep eyes. She has a charming European girl style.
Before time travel, Richard would never have imagined having such a girlfriend, but in this world, such a beauty was just his maid.
Life is like this, full of surprises everywhere.
"Then let's have an afternoon tea, plus two pieces of caramel cake." Richard said lazily. Under the lazy sunshine in the afternoon, he had just woken up and really needed a cup of tea to refresh himself.
"Okay, Master Richard." Serena gave a slight maid salute, then turned and walked towards the kitchen.
"This can be regarded as realizing the otherworldly version of wealth and freedom! A noble young master, he will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life and still have people to take care of him."
Although he is only the second son and cannot inherit his father's baronetcy, according to the regulations of the kingdom, when he becomes an adult You can also be granted the title of a second-class lord, which means there is no fiefdom until you die of old age.
Richard has been thinking in the past few days that he worked hard in his previous life just to make ends meet. If time comes, he will have the chance to hit the middle class again.
But after he survived the three days after traveling through time, he was surprised to find that he had directly arrived at the finish line in his previous life.
No, it should be a long way beyond the finish line of the previous life!
It seems that it is quite good to live my life like this.
After a while, Serena walked over quickly carrying a tray. There was an exquisite silver teapot, a plate of caramel cake, and two silver teacups on the tray.
Richard picked up a piece of caramel cake, and a warm feeling came from his fingertips. It seemed that Serena was right, it was indeed a freshly baked caramel cake.
It was delivered at just the right time, neither cold nor hot. When I took a bite, the crispy texture and the sweetness of caramel intertwined in my mouth. With another sip of the fragrant black tea, I can say that my life was very pleasant. .
"By the way, Serena, I didn't see my father and brother this morning. Where have they gone?"
Richard suddenly remembered that he has been visiting his family every morning these days. Today, in addition to his mother, the Baron's father and My brother Levi didn't even come, so he asked.
"Master, the Baron and the Young Master seem to have gone to Silver Pine Forest to investigate the disappearance of cattle and sheep. Yesterday, the town's sheriff came to report to the Baron, saying that he had found clues." Richard nodded, understanding.
In this world, for an ordinary farmer, a cow may account for one-third or a little more of the family property.
At the market in the town, a cow can be sold for four to five gold dinars. This is not a small amount of money, and can basically last an ordinary family of three for about two years.
Cattle and sheep disappeared one after another. As a lord, the baron certainly could not underestimate this problem, especially since his father was also a very diligent lord.
At this time, there was a burst of noise from the direction of the castle gate, which seemed to be mixed with the cries of women and children. Richard was immediately surprised and turned to look at the maid. Serena also looked confused, obviously not knowing what was going on. .
Richard immediately decided to take a look.
"Selena, let's go and take a look together!"
Richard greeted Serena while picking up the second piece of caramel cake and swallowed it in a big gulp. At the same time, he stood up and took Serena with him from the inside. Walking outside the castle garden.
As soon as he left the inner castle, Richard saw a dark group of people surrounding a cart at the gate of the castle, whispering.
The appearance of the corpses lying on the cart instantly shocked Richard.
This. What a monster this is! The body is at least four meters long, and the whole body is green. The upper body is lifelike like a human lady, and the lower body is shaped like a tutu made of hundreds of rattans.
The monster's body was full of marks from sword slashes and flames. The fatal injuries should be in two places, one was a small half of its head that was split open, and the other was a big hole in its chest.
Richard immediately stood on the spot, his heart in a state of turmoil.
"Isn't this Europe in the Middle Ages? Why did the painting style change and we came to a fantasy world?"
This made Richard's lazy and comfortable mood disappear without a trace in an instant!
On the wooden board of the second carriage lay the corpses of three soldiers dressed as soldiers. Several women and children were crying beside them. A lady with a dignified face was comforting them. She was Richard's mother.
The baron, who was wearing knight armor, had a white bandage on his left forearm, but he was not idle even though he was injured. He was directing his soldiers to unload the seriously injured captain of the guard, Barras, from the third carriage. The doctor who had been waiting aside quickly stepped forward.
But it was obvious that more than one person was injured. The three soldiers on the fourth carriage who helped each other down were obviously also seriously injured.
The armor of the captain of the guard, Barras, has long been taken off. His naked upper body is covered with bandages in many places, and his breath is weak. It seems that this battle to annihilate the monsters is more tragic than Richard imagined.
His brother Li Wei arrived one step ahead of him and was directing everyone's work.
Richard walked quickly to the baron and asked with concern: "Father, are you injured?"
The baron waved his hand and said slightly tiredly: "I'm fine, just a little injured. But it was Barras who wanted to protect me. , was pierced through the abdomen by the monster's vines. Fortunately, we still succeeded in killing the monster."
For a moment, Richard was a little distracted. As the baron's captain of the bodyguard, Barras's combat power was only slightly worse than his father's, but stronger than his brother Li Wei. He was considered the second master in the castle.
The day before yesterday, when Barras and his brother fought against each other at the training ground, the scene of them holding swords and shields with ease was still vivid in their minds, but they never expected that one day later, life or death would be uncertain.
Richard originally thought that even if there would be war in this world, he would be safe due to his family's protection.
But now it seems that it is quite different from what was expected. There are actually monsters in this world!
Even his father, a baron, was injured. It is self-evident how dangerous this world is!
Richard took a few steps forward and took a closer look at the monster. People who were originally watching the cart saw the second young master coming and gave up their positions one after another.
The monster's green skin has fine textures on the surface, just like tree bark, but it seems to be very soft.
This gave Richard a special desire to touch him. However, his instinctive fear of monsters made him dare not touch them at all. But even he did not expect that in the next second, he actually reached out like a ghost. He took out his finger and poked it.
Suddenly, the moment his index finger pad touched the monster's skin, a text suddenly appeared in front of Richard's eyes.
[A small amount of residual absorbable energy was found, the system has been activated, yes/no to absorb]
