Chapter 376 - 376 180 Golden Lion Knight

376: Chapter 180 Golden Lion Knight 376: Chapter 180 Golden Lion Knight Olivia introduced Lola to the two companions, but even until the end, when they left the Mage Tower, Leon still hadn’t told Azeryan and the other person about the relationship between Miss Mage here and the Holy Sun Church.

“If both Kovis and I aren’t around and you encounter some strange matters you can’t handle, you can come inside the tower to ask Miss Lora for help.

She’s usually not stingy with assistance,” said Leon as he led them down the stairs.

Azeryan nodded beside them, taking note.

“When you first mentioned a mage from a thousand years ago, I thought it would be an old granny with a walking stick.

I never expected it to be such a beautiful young lady…” Lokhak remarked with a sense of awe.

He suddenly leaned in with a thoughtful look, lowering his head to whisper, “Hey Leon, according to what you said, you knew Miss Mage back when we were escaping…

even before Olivia…

Do you guys have…

something?

Does Olivia know you’ve been hiding a pretty girl by your side?”

“You big hulking brute, how did you end up with such a lovesick brain?” Leon pushed his head away.

“In Lola’s eyes, even our ancestors are probably just brats, what nonsense are you thinking about?

Besides, Olivia met Lola before the both of you.

I’ve already brought her here before.

What do you mean ‘hidden’?

Don’t unjustly soil my reputation.”

Lokhak shrugged with an aggrieved expression, “How can you blame me for wild thoughts?

Just look at how many beautiful girls like you…

Azeryan doesn’t attract half as many bees and butterflies as you do.”

“Hey, are we back to this?

I see what you’re scheming.

You just want to skip the wedding and have Olivia run me through with a sword so that you can attend my funeral feast, huh?

Watch it!” Leon pushed back at him.

Lokhak dodged his companion’s swinging arms with a laugh and quickly scooted away, joking as he ran, “It’s not that serious.

I reckon Olivia wouldn’t have the heart to strike you down.

Besides, now that you’re a Baron, for a big man like us, what’s a few lovers, right?”

“Sure, sure, you remember what you said, oh!

I’ll make sure to relay it word for word to Miss Sali,” Leon pointed at him in mock seriousness, not pursuing the fight and turning to walk away from the square.

Lokhak’s face instantly turned pale with regret as he chased after him shouting, “Hey!

Bro, I was wrong, just kidding around.

I’m a good man who abides by the chivalrous code of fidelity, don’t!

Please, spare me!”

Azeryan shook his head, quickening his pace to catch up with the two playful companions.

…

…

The preparations for the ceremony weren’t all too cumbersome, but as the area of the residence increased exponentially, it became quite apparent to Leon that the servants’ hands were few.

Ladies such as Miss Elena and Lady Martha were starting to get busy with their significant tasks.

For such a large castle, it was wildly impractical to rely on the mere five little maids and three little male servants to do the housework.

Besides, Leon was not planning to let Lena and their daily study regimen fall behind; once they had learned enough, he would not have these children continue to do housework for himself forever.

Therefore, expanding the servant staff was an urgent matter.

However, after some thought, Leon felt that it was not quite appropriate to recruit servants for his personal life within the unfamiliar Avalon Town at the present time.

The example of the castle servant from Farolis City who betrayed Eriv was still fresh in Leon’s memory.

Those who take care of everyone’s daily life should still be selected from those who are truly trustworthy as much as possible.

After much consideration, he felt more at ease with the older Selvians who had followed him through thick and thin.

It just so happened that for the upcoming ensignment ceremony and the subsequent inspection of the territory, he had to summon Mr.

Brian Sr.

to lead the troops as a witness.

So, in his letter, he asked the old Knight to recruit up to thirty trustworthy local female servants from Selva to come along with the army.

For those who had established new households, he would also arrange for their families to have housing and work in Avalon Town.

The maintenance of various public facilities inside and outside the castle was also currently lacking manpower.

The reason why only “maids” were mentioned, with no mention of male servants, was not due to any strange fetish, but because most of the original strong young men from Selva were in the army, and the younger boys and children of suitable age…

Lena and those seven surviving kids, they were all there was.

…

“So, from now on, Kovis is the orphaned far relation of your deceased wife’s family.

Your wife’s surname was Allen Del.

She was once a distant relative of Villania’s Royal Family, but she fled the war by taking a ship to cross over to the Western Continent for refuge.

There’s no problem with this story, right, uncle?” Leon asked.

Mr.

Brian Sr.

scrutinized Olivia’s transformed golden eyes, then turned to look toward Kovis, who indeed bore a striking resemblance to a distant cousin at first glance.

Regarding this newly fabricated identity, the old Knight had no objections, “As always, you are full of ideas; we will go by your arrangement.”

Olivia, seemingly restless, stood up and came in front of Kovis, smiling as she inspected the boy up and down, apparently expecting something.

“What is it, Miss Olivia?

Is there something on my face?” Kovis asked, puzzled.

“Nothing.

It’s just that suddenly having a cousin feels like having another family member, and the feeling is rather odd… Alas, Kovis, could you perhaps call me by a relational title?

I want to hear it,” Olivia requested with her hands clasped together.

Kovis hesitated, looking at Leon.

Leon, enjoying the entertainment, smiled at Kovis, who had become his “little uncle” for the moment, “Give it a try, it’s like practice for when others ask in the future.”

With the Lord’s permission, Kovis turned back and hesitantly began, “Alright, if you don’t find it offensive, then…

cousin?”
