Steel, Guns, and the Industrial Party that Traveled to Another World

Chapter 624: Seville's Request

White waves lapped at the shore, and flocks of seagulls looked for food between the sky and the sea.

It was an ordinary morning in Port Fulan.

A passenger ship slowly sailed into the port and docked steadily at the dock under the tugboat.

Passenger ships are a recent development. With the rapid increase in the number of people traveling between the Northwest Bay and major trading points, the original transportation mode of cargo ships is gradually unable to meet the demand. After all, cargo ships are mainly used to transport goods, leaving little room for people. If there are too many and the space is small, the accommodation conditions will become poor.

As a result, shipping companies have launched passenger ships dedicated to carrying passengers one after another.

Considering that ordinary passengers are not as agile as sailors, the way of getting on and off the passenger ship has been improved from the original simple springboard to a gangway with guardrails on both sides.

A tall and beautiful woman stepped onto the gangway step by step and came to the dock. Her emerald green waist-length hair swayed gently behind her as she walked.

"Sevia Assitini?"

Not far ahead, a woman with chestnut hair caught her attention and surprise.

"Why are you here?"

Ladi Setia approached her and questioned the female spellcaster.

Sevia gave her a faint smile.

"In the past few years, I've been waiting for you at the dock every day. You said you would come back at this time."

But the expression on Sevia's face soon changed to confusion.

"Where is your count?"

"What my count?"

Ladi's reaction shocked Sevia. It was a tone that was a little bit embarrassed, as if something painful had been touched.

In Sevia's impression, La Di seemed to have a character that was as light as water and not alarmed by changes.

There must be something wrong with her coming back alone, Sevia thought secretly.

"I mean... where is Lord Grayman? Shouldn't you be coming back with his fleet?"

Ladi's eyes dimmed, "The plan couldn't keep up with the change. Lord Grayman will stay in Jingyao for a while. And I still have a lot of official business to deal with, so I came back as planned."

Sevia chased after him, "What happened? Do you still need him to stay in Jingyao?"

Ladi turned her head and said, "Paul Grainman is now the son-in-law of the royal family! Humph~"

Although the last "hum" was inaudible, Sevia still heard it.

"Wha...what?"

Sevia Assitini was shocked!

"Earl Grayman is married to the royal family? Ladi Setia, how can you let him be like this?"

"How could I let him be like this? Can I take care of this?"

"Oh my God! You've been so close to him all day..."

Sevia was a little anxious, but she immediately realized that the crowded dock area was not the place to talk about such things.

"Follow me!"

She dragged La Di all the way to the alchemy shop not far from the dock area. This was a shop opened by spellcasters who had escaped from the Cape Bay.

In a room in the backyard, Sevia began to question Ladi.

"Lord Setia, why has it been so long and you still haven't captured Earl Greyman?"

"What do you mean?"

Ladi raised her eyebrows and asked in a bad tone.

"Okay, okay! Let me put it another way! Why haven't you been captured by Earl Grayman yet? He...he is a powerful lord! You are so beautiful, how can the Earl be able to bear it?"

"What can't be taken down? I solemnly explain it to you again! Paul Grayman is my lord, and I am a vassal loyal to him, that's all!"

Faced with Sevia's unrestrained talk, Ladi made a rare high-profile statement.

Seemingly feeling that she was too impatient, Sevia sighed and softened her attitude.

"Alas, Lord Setia! Do you dare to slap your own chest and swear by sacred magic that you don't have any other feelings for Count Greyman?"

"I..." La Di was speechless, and a layer of flush appeared on her fair face.

Sevia asked: "Which princess in the royal family will Earl Grayman marry?"

"Catherine Rodney!"

"That princess? Oh, it's difficult to handle. As that princess, the help she can give to the Graiman family will be immeasurable."

"I know it without you having to tell me."

"Then what are you going to do next?"

"I plan to apply to be transferred out of Huxin Town and serve as a principal in some other town... and a teacher - after all, I swore an oath of allegiance to him."

The expression on La Di's face was indescribably desolate, "I have warned myself countless times that if I marry him, it will only bring disaster to him, so I just smile and watch him find a suitable partner to get married and have children." . But when that day comes, I still feel a little uncomfortable, so I will do the next best thing and find a place where I can’t see him and work for Alda silently.”

"no!"

Sevia suddenly raised her voice.

"Why not? This is my own business!" La Di was a little angry.

Sevia slowed down and said earnestly: "Lord Setia, if you follow my idea, since you are so close to Earl Grayman, why don't you make good use of this advantage?"

There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!

"Earl Graman is now the most powerful lord in Northwest Bay, and he is a lord who tolerates us spellcasters. Imagine if his first wife was a spellcaster, it would prompt him to further improve his view of spellcasters. How much help will this help our fellow spellcasters improve their living environment in Northwest Bay?"

"I don't want to be the kind of evil witch who seduces men!"

"How can normal feelings between men and women be seduced? How can they be evil?"

Ladi retorted, "Is that so? You are not bad looking, why don't you try it yourself?"

"Well, you are kidding, my looks are not comparable to yours. Anyway, I beg you, even if I can't become his wife, "I want you to be his son, and to continue to stay by his side as his assistant and as a link between fellow spellcasters and the rulers of this land."

"Why?"

Sevilla said earnestly: "I know you are a kind person. As the most powerful spellcaster among us, you are our natural leader. Don't you feel that you should have some kind of obligation to the situation of your compatriots? Even a little bit. "

"Count Graman did not oppress the spellcasters!"

"But he still has a trace of vigilance. Don't you admit that? If you, as the only link now, choose to exile yourself, God knows whether his attitude will change one day in the future. "

Lady fell into silence, with a tangled look on her face.

The person in front of her moved, and Lady looked at Sevilla in surprise.

This proud witch actually knelt down on one knee to her.

"There needs to be someone who can represent us beside Earl Graman, and that person can only be you, Lord Ladi Setia."

She lowered her head, her tone filled with anxiety, as if she was afraid that Ladi would say no.

The green-haired witch looked at her compatriots and couldn't say a word.

The two of them were motionless, and time passed in silence for an unknown amount of time.

"Ah!" Ladi bit her lip, "Okay, then I'll stay in Lake Town."

"You agree?"

Sevilla raised her head, and Ladi only then realized that there were crystal tears in the corners of her eyes.

The body was suddenly restrained, and the other party stood up and hugged her tightly.

"On behalf of my fellow spellcasters, I would like to thank you very much, Lord Setia. If you need us to do anything, please feel free to ask."

Ladi's tone returned to calm, "What's the point of saying we should do anything? Since we are all stranded in a foreign land, it is reasonable for us to help each other. By the way, why did you wait for me at the dock?"

"I wanted to give you some advice..."

"What advice?"

"Actually, I have already said it in what I said just now."

"Hmm?"

"You'd better... develop a closer relationship with the Earl."

"Don't push your luck!"
