Chapter 7: The title is obtained
Raising thirty gold coins too quickly will make Father Vic feel that his asking price is too low and it is easy to raise the price temporarily.
Too late,
and you risk losing your title.
The proportion needs to be carefully grasped.
After two days of hard work, Karl's 'piety' was finally recognized by Father Vic, who agreed to give him a blessing.
In this world with powers beyond ordinary people, only by receiving the blessing of the gods can one become a true noble.
In terms of rituals, inheritance is far less complicated than conferring honors, but it also requires bathing, changing clothes, worship and prayers.
The whole process takes one to two days.
Karl wore a white shirt and a red robe, placed his weapons and soft armor on the altar, and took the oath with scriptures in his hands.
"I, Carl Bergmann, swear an oath in front of the icon of the great Lord of the Morning to uphold loyalty and honor throughout my life..."
"As a noble, I will treat the weak with kindness and bravely resist violence. Fight for the unarmed..."
"Baron Karl."
At the door of the church, a blond woman nodded towards Karl who had just finished the ceremony:
"Congratulations."
"Sir Dinah." Karl stopped and said in surprise:
"Why are you here?"
The woman in front of him had three-dimensional features, a tall figure, and a sheathed long sword hanging from her waist. , shawl blonde hair naturally rises.
The long trousers hug her slender legs, and the leather top perfectly fits the body curve, giving her a wild beauty.
Dina Yeager, Inspector General of Nancheng, the third daughter of Viscount Sassoon, is also Karl’s immediate boss.
The two of them were not familiar with each other.
The young and beautiful woman took out something from behind and handed it over:
"A gift."
"Thank you."
Karl bowed Thank you personally and accept the gift.
This is a gentleman's staff, made of cedarwood and decorated with silver ornaments. It has a beautiful shape and an excellent grip.
“As a noble, how can you not have a cane by your side?” Dinah chuckled and said:
“There happens to be something to do nearby, so come and take a look.”
"Is something wrong?" Karl tapped the ground with his stick and did not continue to be polite. The other party was not short of money:
"Do you need help?"
"No, you're still on vacation." Dinah put her hands behind her back and turned around:
"Two civilians died at night. Some people said it was the hands of vampires, so I had to run away."
“Vampire?” Carl’s expression changed:
“Real or fake?”
“Of course it’s fake!” Dinah laughed:
"It doesn't matter whether there are vampires in the world, but the blood on the deceased was indeed sucked dry."
"Hmm..."
"Although it's a little strange, I'll leave it to the police. That’s fine.”
Karl nodded.
They are inspectors, and will only intervene personally unless it involves nobles or events of huge impact.
The police are responsible for maintaining public order and arresting fugitives.
The difference between officials and members is here.
“Karl.”
As she walked forward, Dinah said:
“Do you remember that I have a cousin named Martha?”
"Martha?"
The scene at a banquet flashed through Carl's mind, in which there was a young and cheerful girl:
"Remember."
"She hasn't yet Get married." Dinah glanced at Karl and said:
"I'm a few years younger than you. Do you want to get in touch?"
"This..." Carl hesitated:
"I don't want to get married so early now, and I'm afraid I will scare others."
As he said that, he touched his face scars on.
"Men, being good-looking is of no use." Dinah said:
"Now you are a noble, and there are many women who are willing to marry you and even bring wealth."
Karl said nothing.
He has no objection to eating soft food, but he is not used to having soft food forced on others.
Before becoming a baron, the other party never mentioned this matter. Now he mentioned it just because he took a fancy to his title. Just like uncle Gedir.
“If a family wants to prosper, it cannot rely on just one person.” Dinah continued:
"Our Yegerson family is where we are today because we have enough children and the influence of our bloodline is strong enough."
"Yes."
Karl nodded and suddenly said:
< br>"Sir, it seems you haven't decided on a fiancé yet?"
Fuck!
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he regretted it. This woman was not easy to tease, but it was obviously too late to realize it at this time.
"Huh?"
Dina's face darkened, her steps stopped, and an invisible pressure enveloped the scene.
The majestic breath of life seemed to have substance, making Karl's breath short.
Knight Squire!
I heard that the other party is already a peak knight squire and may become an official knight at any time, which seems to be true.
The blonde beauty in front of her is not weak at all, and she may not be a match for the three of them.
Karl has been exercising since he was a child, but his physique is still within the realm of ordinary people.
Facing the peak knight attendant is like a mouse meeting a cat. To him, the life breath of a superior creature is There is also a kind of life and death instinctive deterrence.
“Sir.”
Karl's throat rolled:
"I remembered that I have something to do at home, can you leave first?"
"..." Dinah's face was expressionless, and she hummed lightly on the tip of her nose. See Karl leaving in a hurry.
"This guy..."
Looking at Karl's back, Dinah had a look of surprise in her eyes and whispered thoughtfully:
"My personality seems to be different from before?"
In the past, Karl had a reckless personality and yelled at every turn. Although his behavior just now was a bit disrespectful, he was much more cautious.
Touching her chin, she shook her head gently and stopped thinking about it. It is very common for a person's personality to change drastically after experiencing life and death danger.

Back at the residence, Jenny was singing as always, and her singing voice was more beautiful than the previous days.
Her singing talent is indeed very good.
“Peng!”
Karl threw himself heavily on the bed, crossed his fingers and looked at the roof, seemingly in a daze, but actually his thoughts were changing rapidly.
'It is indeed convenient to have the status of a noble. Even Chief Dinah took the initiative to act as a matchmaker. ’
‘However, what I want is not money! ’
If you want money and live a decent life, then marrying the daughter of a wealthy businessman is undoubtedly the best choice.
With the status of a baron, it is not difficult to do this.
But Carl is not short of money.
Well,
At least there is no shortage for the time being, and there is a high probability that there will be no shortage in the future.
Although the other world is a bit dangerous, it is still very easy to obtain a certain amount of wealth.
“What I want is the breathing method!”
As far as he knows, most of the breathing methods are in the hands of the Holy See, and some are passed down among the great nobles and knights.
There are very few scattered around.
It is even more difficult to get it, even some nobles who have inherited it for hundreds of years do not have the breathing method.
‘Compared with here, the breathing method in another world is easier to obtain. At least you can buy it with money. ’
A few days later.
Karl opened the curtains and looked up at the full moon in the sky.
"The Lord of the Dawn bless you..."
Close the curtains, hold all the things prepared in advance in your arms, close your eyes, and arrive at the mysterious place.
Jumping through a mysterious place, Karl, carrying a lot of supplies, came to another world again.
This time.
The cold and cold breath that penetrated into the bone marrow did not appear.
"On the day of the burning moon, the fog dissipates, half-dead creatures dare not show up, and the black city will become safer."
