Chapter 60 It's alright! (Thanks to the leader of poorsen! +3 for the extra chapter!)
early morning.

When Herbert walked out of the Third Discipline House, he met Brother Jeffs who was waiting at the door.

"Sir Herbert, a group of people are here to see you."

Jeffs, who was freed from the torture in the interrogation room, looked a little haggard, as if his skin had been peeled off, but there was also a strange sense of relief.

He looked at the puzzled Herbert with a respectful expression and said softly: "They claim to be servants of the Albert family."

Came so fast!

This was Herbert's first thought after hearing the news.

He wrote a letter to Grand Duke Silver Wing three days ago notifying him of the money he was going to transfer, and today he received a reply letter and a package.

Letters can be delivered directly to the monastery over extremely long distances through magic, but this cannot be done on living people.

Even if they could reach the nearest big city through a teleportation array, they would still need to walk for at least two and a half days to cross the dangerous Misty Mountains and reach the monastery.

This meant that less than half a day after Grand Duke Silver Wing received the letter, they had already assembled and set off.

Relying on the teleportation array, and then crossing mountains and rivers, he rushed to his side.

So, I rush towards you over mountains and across rivers.

Moved?
I'm not moved at all!
Herbert only found their behavior strange.

No, why are you in such a hurry?

I'm not rushing you... Why are you in such a hurry?

After thinking for a moment, the second thought came to his mind - he was so anxious.

"My dear father, you are really in a hurry."

Thinking of the person behind this forced march, Herbert couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "What are you doing? Are you trying so hard to ease the relationship between you and me?"

"But I'm a little curious, are you worried that I'm not living well in the monastery?"

"Are you still worried that I might come back, and want to use this thing to calm me down and control me?"

Herbert would like to question this issue for the time being, as he is a good father who has not paid any attention to him for a whole month since he came to the monastery.

"Well, for the sake of this thing, I'll just assume it's the former."

With these in mind, Herbert, led by Jeffs, came to the guest room and met the guests waiting there.

He was a tall warrior who was over two meters tall, with curly brown hair and a simply trimmed beard on his face.

The moment he saw Herbert, he stood up straight, then knelt on one knee, bowed his head and saluted respectfully, "Your Highness."

Herbert looked at the man's face and thought for half a second, then found his name from his memory and nodded, "... Blake, it's been a long time."

Blake Jones, an elite warrior trained by the Albert family, is less than 40 years old, but his strength has reached the early high-level axe warrior.

For a long time, he has been serving as the guard of the Duke's heir.

It can be said that Herbert grew up under his care.

Blake raised his head and looked at the back of Herbert's hand. Looking at the golden lines, he whispered with mixed emotions: "Your Highness, you have really become..."

"Well, as you can see."

Herbert knew what he was concerned about. He raised his hand to show the stigmata and said calmly, "I have taken a vow and become a paladin."

"If the lady were still here and knew about this, she would probably... No, I'm sorry." Blake lowered his head hurriedly after speaking out of turn, fearing that he had touched Herbert's wound.

"...It doesn't matter."

When talking about his mother in this life, Herbert's reaction was a little flat, with only a few memories flashing through his mind.

The sadness of his mother's death did make him sad, and even at this moment, he could still feel the pain and loneliness at that time.

But things have come to this point, and ten years have passed, and he has become accustomed to the pain.

Herbert shook his head, not wanting to recall these past events, and deliberately changed the subject:

"By the way, why did you come here suddenly? Do you want to become a monk too?"

He raised his eyebrows, thinking of some funny things in the past, and chuckled and teased: "I remember, didn't you always say that you wanted to marry three wives?" "Ahem! Your Highness, you, you are joking."

Blake was a little embarrassed when this was pointed out. His eyes fell on the expressionless Brother Jeffs behind Herbert, and he said with a stiff face:

"I was just joking..."

I was just bragging, why did you take it seriously?
"That's it."

Herbert chuckled and said leisurely, "I was thinking of arranging it for you later, but now it seems that there is no need to be so troublesome."

Blake: ?

"Your Highness! Um, I! I can actually do it!"

"Cough cough!!!"

Jeffs, who was standing behind the two of them, couldn't bear to listen any longer. He coughed and took the initiative to leave: "Sir Herbert, since you have already met, I will leave first."

"Well, Brother Jeffs, thank you for your hard work. Please go back to work."

"Farewell."

After the outsiders left, Blake's expression calmed down a little. He carefully looked Herbert up and down before saying in a low voice, "Your Highness, I'm relieved to see that you're okay."

He thought Herbert would have a hard time in the monastery, but now it seems that he has integrated into the place smoothly?
fine?

Herbert wanted to laugh when he heard this word, and shook his head and said, "Haha, maybe that's what you think."

If you knew what I was going through?
You won't think I'm okay.

If you knew what I was going through?
You wouldn't have this expression now.

you do not know.

You know nothing!
fine?

Ah.

How dare you use such light words?

Am I okay?

You think that being wrongly imprisoned, forced to come to a monastery, and forced to be a jailer...

After all I've been through, am I really going to feel good?
Ok.

meeting!
I can’t really say that I’m fine now, I can say that I’m doing pretty well.
All day long, he either uses his authority to influence the monster girls in charge, or is being fought over by his two superiors to be promoted into his department... His life is so comfortable.

Do you understand my happiness?
You won't understand.

Because of my happiness, you can't even imagine it!

Blake certainly didn't know what Herbert was really thinking. After hearing this, he just thought that he was pretending to be strong and that he actually suffered a lot in the monastery.

He couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

Especially when he thought of Grand Duke Silver Wing's strange attitude at that time, he felt even more distressed.

But as a retainer, there are some things he cannot say, is not qualified to say, and absolutely cannot say.

Finally, Blake could only say in a low voice:

"Your Highness, you have suffered."

While Blake was struggling, Herbert had been silently observing his reaction. At this moment, he had some guesses in his mind - the Duke's family's attitude towards him might not be positive.

He shook his head and said calmly:

"There's no need to talk about these things anymore, let's get down to business."
