Starting Life as a Baron

Chapter 58: AcceptingNick, Alans Attitude



Accepting Nick, Alan's Attitude

Alan was a little surprised because a junior potion master, who was about to be promoted, was a high-end talent that all nobles would never refuse.

It was hard to imagine that a potion master with such a bright future would actually come to this small town to join him.

Alan wouldn’t believe that there was no hidden agenda.

"With your status, there is absolutely no need to come to my small town, right?"

Alan said calmly.

"Did you offend someone?"

Apart from offending people, Alan could not think of any other reason.

Nick was silent for a while, then he smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, My Lord. I am being hunted by the court knights because I offended the second son of Duke Lane."

For some reason, Nick suddenly told the truth. He felt that the young man in front of him was different from the other nobles.

It was as if there was a magic power that made it impossible for him to lie to Alan.

Alan was taken aback for a moment and carefully looked at Nick.

"Do you have the courage to offend the son of the Duke?"

Alan was shocked. He couldn't imagine that a potion master like Nick would have such courage.

At the same time, Alan almost understood Nick's identity. He had superb skills, and he also had great potential to be promoted to an intermediate potion master.

He could also have contact with the Duke’s son.

Alan could guess Nick's identity with his toes. He should be the Royal magic potion master, right?

"I don't want to, but that beast is too much!"

When Nick said these words, there was a trace of grief and anger in his eyes.

"He tried to defile my beloved woman, so I wounded him and escaped by myself."

Nick showed a bitter smile.

Speaking of which, it was strange. Originally, Nick was preparing to flee for his life, but for some reason, he had an idea of ​​staying when he passed by the Thorn Flower Territory.

It was at this moment that the wine, perfume, and malt of Rose Town opened up the market, causing the entire Thorn Flower territory to shake, so Nick immediately decided to come and take a look.

After reaching Rose Town, he decided to stay here for some reason.

"I see."

Alan also seemed to have heard that the Duke had a son with a bad character.

"Okay, I understand. From today onwards, you can work for me. Since you are about to be promoted to the intermediate potion master, I will not treat you badly."

"You can control one-fifth of the total number of magical plants in my territory at will. This is equivalent to my investment in promoting you to an intermediate-level potion master. You can use them to accumulate experience and strive to become an intermediate-level potion master as soon as possible."

Alan patted Nick on the shoulder and then took the potion master to visit his own magical plant field.

"Oh my God, there are actually eight kinds of magic plants. My Lord, you have eight spirits of nature?!"

Nick was very shocked because he had heard that Earl Albert only had six spirits of nature.

However, Alan, a Baron, actually had more spirits of nature than an Earl.

It was unbelievable!

"That's right, so I have already given you a lot of magic plants. I think it should be enough for you to use."

Alan said calmly.

Nick's eyes were filled with tears. He was very moved because even though Alan was a Baron of a small town; he was willing to take out magical plants to train him to become an intermediate potion master.

"My Lord, that's enough!"

After receiving an affirmative reply from Nick, Alan did not waste any more words and asked his servant to take him down to rest.

Alan also returned to the study.

He thought about Nick's problem. There was no problem with this person's character, and he had the ability. Plus, it was given to him by the System, so he couldn't doubt his loyalty.

As for the trouble he caused, Alan felt that his pursuers would not be able to find him for a while. After all, this was just a small town in the countryside.

Of course, even if someone did find it, it didn't matter. Just kill them directly.

Alan had a thousand ways to make those who dared to chase him in his territory evaporate unless it was the golden knight who came to kill Nick, which was obviously impossible.

Although accepting Nick had caused Alan some trouble, this kind of trouble was not for nothing.

At least Alan felt that it was not a loss for him to get an intermediate potion master.

Furthermore, as long as he had a potion master to make potions, the knights he trained would have the opportunity to become stronger in the future.

This was also extremely important to Alan. After all, other people couldn't improve their strength as quickly as he did.

As for Duke Lane's second son, Alan did not pay attention to him.

That guy was just a playboy. Such a person could not earn Alan’s respect.

Even if he was the Duke's son, the prince of this Principality, he was nothing more than trash in Alan's eyes.

Alan had some respect for Duke Lane in his heart. After all, the Duke was a Dragon Knight and he could be considered Alan's senior.

However, he was only a senior. Alan, who had the system, now had too many things. He even had dragons. His mentality had changed long ago.

Alan was sure that one day he could become a Dragon Knight and build a nation.

In that case, his relationship with Duke Lane was no longer hierarchical, but equal.

However, no one knew about this.

The current Alan only respected the powerhouses and the senior Lord Lane. Other than that, he did not have much respect for the king.

Since he treated the Duke like this, why would he be afraid of a prince?
