After Alvin hurriedly finished chewing the bread in his hand, Onian went to the Earl's Mansion with him.
Originally, Kui Qing said that she would go back to Lomu Town to pick up her father, but Alvin said that he had already sent Qiao Zhi and she should arrive soon.
After hearing this, Kui Qing blinked and looked at Alvin, feeling very strange. She knew that Alvin and her father had never dealt with each other, but she didn't expect that Alvin would be so delicate and considerate.
"Don't look at me like that. Being thoughtful is just a way for me to deceive the little girl." Alvin grinned and said.
"That's true." Onian stood next to Alvin and looked at Aoi with a testimonial smile.
Kui Qing looked at the pair of beautiful young people in front of her and sighed in her heart: "There is probably no one more suitable than them."
When Alvin and Onian came to Onian's house again, their moods were completely different.
At that time I was the guest, now I am the host. That is naturally different.
Even though Alvin had not slept all night, he was still very energetic now, mainly because he washed his face and felt quite awake. He looked around the outside of the Earl's Mansion with great interest, but was not in a hurry to go in. He thought in his heart that wealth could disappear so easily, and that life was so impermanent.
But he didn't come here to seek other people's property.
The Mengqi mercenaries guarding the gatehouse recognized Alvin at a glance and quickly opened the door.
This time there was no butler to welcome Alvin and the others in.
Shiba also arranged some people in the front yard, so there were people watching along the way. Shiba remembers the order given by Alvin, and no one is allowed to escape.
Alvin's main target was Oneyin, and he didn't pay attention to the other minor characters. Speaking of these captured nobles, after their impassioned speech in Lia, they were released in front of the eyes of the people and amid thousands of salivating denunciations. They were given three days to leave the city on their own. Thinking about it, they probably don't have the shame to stay in Zanc City any longer.
Just now Turang saw Alvin walking in a hurry, thinking that Alvin was rushing to exploit the wealth of these nobles.
He thought Alvin was the kind of person who said one thing but acted another. In this regard, he really underestimated Alvin. Since Alvin mentioned the importance of private property in that program, he would not do such a thing of slapping himself in the face.
After Alvin and Onian entered the front hall of the mansion, Shiba led Bai Kang to greet them.
"Are your hands and feet clean?" Alvin glanced at the two of them and said calmly.
"Everyone is on guard. Who dares to act rashly?" Shiba said quickly.
"Yes, Mr. Alvin, we do everything according to your request. Although there are many good things in this house, the brothers haven't even touched it." Bai Kang also added at the side.
Alvin nodded, then patted Shiba's shoulder, "The matter in Tilea City was well done. The ten thousand runi I promised you last time has been prepared for you."
"This subordinate is just following your instructions." Shiba bowed.
"Okay, take me to see Oneyin."
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------
The entire Earl's Mansion is now in a state of panic.
The maids in the corridor all looked anxious and uneasy, especially when they saw Alvin and his party.
Alvin still saw Oneyin in the study room last time.
At this time, Oneyin had changed into a loose purple nightgown, and was sitting alone on the sofa, stunned. Looking at the thick bags under his eyes, there is a circle of black, probably a
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
No sleep at night. He stared blankly at the ray of skylight coming through the window, completely unaware of the arrival of Alvin and others.
Alvin and Onian entered the study, while Shiba and others were left outside the door.
"What's wrong? You haven't adapted to your new identity yet?" After Alvin closed the door of the study, he teased Oneyin, walked to several floor-to-ceiling windows, and opened all the curtains.
In an instant, the entire study was brightly lit, and even the flying dust was clearly visible.
Oneyin covered her eyes angrily, obviously not wanting to be disturbed by the white light coming in from her thoughts.
"Isn't this... not going to give you peace of mind for a moment?" Oneyin said in a hoarse voice, looking at Alvin in displeasure. Obviously he didn't drink much from the open bottle of red wine on the coffee table, and his throat was probably so dry that it was smoking, but he didn't seem to feel it.
"You didn't mean to exile us, then what do you mean by leading these people to surround me like a waterless person?" Oneyin looked at Alvin with sarcasm.
"Let's not talk about this for now, what are your plans?" Alvin sat down opposite Oneyin generously. Onian, on the other hand, was minding his own business by flipping through the classics in the bookcase. In fact, she wanted to read it the last time she came here, but she was a first-time guest at that time, so it was not easy to make mistakes.
"What does it have to do with you?" Oneyin replied with lowered eyes.
"That's just the question." Alvin said with a smile, "The last time I came here, you didn't treat me like this."
Alvin's words seemed very offensive, but Oneyin did not have the capital to fight against Alvin at this time. After all, the lives of the whole family were in his hands.
"If you don't let the nobles live, is it possible that there will be no nobles left to live in this world?" Onein said and glanced at Alvin. Apparently, listening to Oneyin's tone, he still felt that people like Alvin could only occupy Zantz City for a while.
"You don't want to... defect to Marquis Elu, do you?" Alvin narrowed his eyes and looked at Oneyin.
"It's not a big deal to go to my brother-in-law, right?"
"Have you forgotten what Theresia did on the battlefield?"
"This moment, that moment." Oneyin said lightly. Obviously, he had thought a lot this night.
After the Battle of Constant Plains, Onein, McNee, and the Marquis of Elu all suffered varying degrees of damage. Among them, Onein's side was the worst, being uprooted. But the little-known "Ecumenical Freedom Army" took advantage of the opportunity and took advantage of it. Therefore, for the Marquis of Elu who lost his troops, Oneyin should be quite welcome to defect to him at this time. Even though the Crazy Ax Legion was completely wiped out, Oneyin still had a lot of family property.
If Oneyin is really allowed to bring the gold and silver to the Marquis of Elu, it is still unclear whether he will be able to make a comeback given time.
But Alvin was not worried about this at all.
"Indeed." Alvin nodded, looking very much in agreement with Oneyin's point of view.
"However, it's not a pleasant feeling to be under someone else's roof. Especially if you go to Newfoundland in such a mess, the gossip behind others' backs will probably be as unpleasant as possible." Alvin changed the subject, with a worried look on his face. He looked like he was thinking about Oneiyin very much.
Alvin's words really hit the nail on the head. After all, Oneiyin was once a dominant player, and I'm afraid it won't be that simple for him to live his life with a nod and a low eyebrow in the future.
Oneyin naturally knew that Alvin was not really worried about her, so she rolled her eyes at him and looked elsewhere.
"I told you yesterday that times are going to change. But you don't understand, alas..." Alvin sighed as he spoke.
"What exactly do you want to say?" Oneyin frowned and looked at Alvin.
"Actually, for you, right now or in the future, isn't the most important thing like
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Do you live like a noble? Alvin said and glanced at Oneyin, "Don't nobles just live for a living?" As for whether you have noble titles or nobility, does it really matter? Isn't it what you want most to live in the envious eyes of others? "
Onian, who was reading the classics nearby, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment after hearing Alvin's words. She no longer paid attention to the content in the book, her mind wandered, and she began to recall what Alvin said.
"Your opinion... is quite different." Oneiyin also hesitated for a while before answering.
"Isn't it?" Alvin asked.
"It does make some sense." Oneyin nodded slightly.
"I have a way to let you live a decent life like before." Alvin said bluntly.
Oneyin stared into Alvin's eyes. He felt that the other party was not deceiving him at all.
"Are you going to betray the Universal Religion?" Oneyin asked with wide eyes. This was the only way he could think of.
Alvin laughed immediately, and then shook his head, "Those slogans of 'everyone is equal' that Riya preached are my core ideas. So how could I betray myself?"
"Then what are you going to do?" Onein was confused.
"I can't say it clearly right now," Alvin said. "I can only say that if you believe my words, I will never break my word."
Hearing what Alvin said, Oneyin became a little hesitant again.
"How many more Looneies do you have?" Alvin then asked. He asked such a private question so easily.
Oneyin looked at Alvin with complicated expressions, not knowing how to answer.
"I know, you must think that I am interested in your family property." Alvin looked at Oneiyin and said with a smile, and then he stopped smiling, "If you think so, you are looking down on me too much."
Oneyin was stunned by Alvin's words. Indeed, he could vaguely sense in his heart that Alvin had a big agenda.
Alvin curled his lips, looked at Oneyin and said calmly: "If I were really planning on your family fortune, believe it or not, you wouldn't be able to get far out of Zanc City."
Oneyin nodded, he believed that Alvin would indeed do this if he broke his skin.
"Then why do you want to help me?" Oneyin asked confused.
"I have to explain it to you. First of all, I personally believe that everyone's private property is inviolable. That's why I came to you to discuss it. I don't want this 'free city-state' that I and Ria have established. A barbaric organization similar to bandits.
"Secondly, when you talk about helping you, you are actually helping me. I really need the Looney in your hands." Alvin looked at Oneyin and said seriously.
"You need a large sum of money to support this newly established regime?" Oneyin immediately reacted.
"You could say that, but not entirely."
"What do you mean?" Oneyin was very annoyed with Alvin's way of half-talking.
"I can tell you something." Alvin said and glanced at Oneyin. "As I said just now, the era of nobility has passed. Similarly, the era of clergy has also passed. Whether it is universal Whether it is the Holy World Religion or any other religion, it is not the future."
"What's the future?"
Alvin smiled, picked up the note on the coffee table, and drew a Looney symbol on the paper. Then he tore off the note paper and shook it in his hand, making a "squeaking" sound.
The inexplicable and weird smile on Alvin's face at this moment made Oneyin unforgettable for the rest of his life. He felt as if he saw a demon with black feathers all over his body under the sun, smiling at him, and that smile could not help but make his hair stand on end.
