The Immortal Wizard is watching

Chapter 9 Offsetting Arrears

"excuse me, you are?"

The relieved Baron Exeter noticed Ronan at the side.

Looking at his aristocratic attire and the guards who were obviously knights, Baron Exeter's face was instantly filled with a flattering smile.

"Ronan Ordosius, it's a pleasure to meet His Excellency the Baron." Ronan handed him the letter of visit engraved with the family crest.

In the center of the coat of arms on a red background is a golden scepter painted with gold powder.

"God-given Kingship"

This is the imperial family, the coat of arms of the Ordosius family, but it is different from the emperor's coat of arms. In the coat of arms pattern in Ronan's hand, there is an additional distinguishing symbol similar to a pendant on the coat of arms to distinguish the main line from the side. Department of family.

Due to age and the fact that the family has not been separated, Ronan can still visit the outside world in the name of his father's family.

Baron Exeter received the visiting letter, and after seeing the coat of arms on it, he carefully put it in his arms, and the flattering smile on his face deepened a bit.

"It seems that some small troubles have occurred here." Ronan looked at Akesha who had already recovered a little.

The latter's face was pale. After noticing his gaze, he suppressed a smile and hurriedly took out a scroll from his body.

"My lord, you misunderstood." Akesha spread out the scroll in his hand, on which was the loan contract with the seal of the city hall.

"Baron Exeter borrowed 200 gold coins from our Brotherhood. This is a notarized contract. If it weren't for the baron's unwillingness to pay back the debt, how dare we come to trouble a nobleman."

When he noticed Ed's gaze was on the scroll, Aksha couldn't help taking a step back, his arms trembling, fearing that the other party would take it away.

But Ronan would definitely not let him do such a stupid thing.

In Triumph City, violence is always the last choice, especially for nobles, no matter what virtue they have in private, they need to protect their reputation on the surface.

Everyone here needs to follow the rules, even the emperor.

It was also because of this that the baron's face turned dark again. It wasn't that he didn't want to pay back the money, but that he really had no money!
After coming to Triumph City, in order to integrate into the local noble group, he needs to hold a grand banquet to entertain the guests. For this, he also needs to prepare the venue, buy decent dresses, purchase rich food, and hire a group of maids who understand etiquette Reception service.

In addition, there are so many odds and ends of living expenses that he can't even support the servants around him.

It is really helpless to borrow money from the local gangsters. If he cannot be accepted by the local nobles and cannot return to the fief, he is no different from a commoner.

As for the issue of repaying the money, Baron Exeter, who has been hanging around the banquet these days, has already selectively forgotten.

It's ridiculous, how dare a group of scum who hang out in the sewers come to trouble him as a Baron?

That's why he's so angry when he sees the fraternity at his door.

Baron Exeter didn't understand the difference between Triumph City and his territory until he truly felt the threat from the other party. The gangsters here obviously didn't take him seriously.

The anger at being humiliated turned into fear, and he quietly moved behind Ronan.

"In that case, as a gift of the visit, I will pay the bill for the Baron."

Ronan looked at the contract and said, making both the baron and Akshay smile.

"Of course, my lord, of course, you seem to be a reasonable person." Aksha rubbed his hands and smiled, "The principal is 200, the interest is 250, and the three-day extension increases by 60, a total of 510 gold coins."

"What did you say?" Baron Exeter stuck his head out from behind Ronan and stared at him in disbelief.

"I got a total of 180 gold coins at the beginning, and you have nearly tripled it now! Triple! Damn it, the vampires in the Death Mountain are not as greedy as you!"

"It's clearly written in the contract, I dare not fool you, my lord." Aksha ignored the baron, but explained to Ronan.

In this regard, Ronan's expression did not change, but nodded with a smile.

"Okay, let's calculate it at 510 gold coins."

But before Akesha could continue to be happy, Ronan's next sentence made his mood drop rapidly.

"As the price for your brothers to offend me, these 510 gold coins will be used as compensation."

"Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean."

Aksha tried his best to slow down his tone, and his smile became more and more dry, "I will always respect you, my lord, and I am sure that I have never committed any offensive behavior."

"Don't worry, I didn't mean anything against you." Ronan reassured him and continued to explain.

"On the way here, someone from your companion stretched out his hand to me, you should understand what I mean."

The girl who was caught by Ronan, who was just standing there in a daze, suddenly felt a chill running down her spine throughout her body.

She looked up, and what she saw was a pair of cold eyes that wanted to tear her apart.

Her feeling was right, Aksha, who had already understood what Ronan meant, couldn't suppress the anger in her heart, and had already conceived ten thousand ways to torture her to death.

Thinking of the punishment for failing to complete the mission, he couldn't hold back his expression anymore.

"My lord, I think there must be some misunderstanding in this, I,"

"I'm not discussing with you." Ronan interrupted him, and said to Ed, "Let him hand over the contract himself, otherwise he will be punished as the crime of provoking the nobles."

After finishing speaking, he stopped paying attention to the other party and turned to look at Baron Exeter.

"Take the liberty to visit, can I go in and sit down?"

"It's an honor." With a bright smile, Baron Exeter spat contemptuously in Aksha's direction, and then led his wife and children to lead the way for him.

Ronan dragged the girl who had lost his mind into the house, and Ed, who stayed outside, looked at Akesha and the two, eager to try.

He was expecting the opponent to resist.

"My lord, just now, I saw His Majesty's demeanor in you! This bunch of trash dared to threaten a nobleman. If you ask me, the kingdom's army should cut them all down!"

?

Hearing the first half of his sentence, Ronan's movement of holding the cup became a little stiff.

He carefully looked at the expression of Baron Exeter, and after confirming that this was just an unintentional remark after the other party got up, he put the cup down.

Otherwise, he would throw a cup to summon Ed, can this be said?

After greeting the baron with noble courtesy, Ronan also formally informed the reason for his visit.

Regarding the sale of Territorial Cold Wind Collar.

The baron, who was originally enthusiastic and humbled, calmed down when he heard this question.

Ronan was not surprised by this at all. Don't look at how respectful the other party was to him, it was because he didn't touch the other party's interests.

Once it comes to your own fundamental interests, the nobles don't care if you are a royal or not, you should turn your face every minute.
