Chapter 496 The Person in Front of You Is the Leader of the Michael Knights!
"Ahem..." The village chief, who still had some embarrassment on his face, coughed a few times, "I'm really grateful to both of you for your help..."
"No need to thank you." Raymond waved his hand, "I just did what we could. Samuel and I just cleaned up some cockroaches that blocked the view and the way forward."
"Well...please allow me to ask you two some very abrupt questions." The village chief continued, "Who are you two? I think you two seem to be very familiar with Mr. Su Cheng. You two Are you an acquaintance of Mr. Su Cheng?"
Having said this, the village chief paused for a moment, and then continued in a hesitant tone.
However, this time he asked Su Cheng:
"Mr. Su Cheng, I saw that the two of them seemed to be very respectful to you, and they kept calling you 'leader'...Mr. Su Cheng, are you not a big shot?"
At this time, Su Cheng was standing between Raymond and Samuel.
After hearing the village chief's question, Su Cheng secretly tugged on the clothes of Raymond and Samuel, who were standing on both sides of him, and winked at them.
Su Cheng didn't want too many people to know his true identity. In order to prevent Raymond and Samuel from revealing his identity, he kept winking at them to signal them not to talk nonsense.
Samuel immediately understood Su Cheng's eyes, shut his mouth obediently, and stopped speaking.
While gesticulating at Raymond and Samuel, Su Cheng was also working his brain rapidly, thinking about words.
In just a few seconds, Su Cheng thought of a perfect answer.
After clearing his throat, Su Cheng said loudly to the village chief:
"Village chief, are you kidding me? I'm not a big shot..."
I'm just an ordinary person who can be seen everywhere. These two people are just my friends. The title "Leader" is just their nickname for me. Su Cheng didn't have time to finish the perfect answer that he just thought of. Lei Meng, who was beside Su Cheng, said loudly to the village chief with a proud look on his face:
"That's right! The person standing in front of you is none other than one of the few important figures in our Britannia Empire!"
"A few big shots?"
"That's right! You guys don't have much information here, so you must not know yet! The Michael Knights, one of the three major knights in our empire, which is stationed in the north of the empire, has recently taken up a new leader! The person in front of you is... It’s Baron Liya of our Britannia Empire, the new leader of the Michael Knights, and the top leader of the empire’s northern front, Su Cheng! Huh? Captain, Samuel, why are you looking at me so strangely? look at me?"
"M-Head of the Michael Knights?"
"The highest person in charge of the Empire's Northern Front?!"
"He, he, he is the leader of the Knights of Michael?! Such a young man is actually the leader?!"
"No..."
"But if he is the leader, then everything makes sense... No wonder the horse thieves arrived in the early morning, and two masters came to the rescue at night... It is very likely that Mr. Su Cheng used some method to The two of them were called over to rescue us!"
"In the early morning, Mr. Su Cheng was able to make the gang of horse thieves leave with just one word, and the reason why the bald man spoke so respectfully to Mr. Su Cheng is now clear! The person who is the leader of the Knights,
It's not easy to overwhelm a small horse thief with the momentum cultivated by living in a high position for a long time! "
…
As soon as Raymond finished speaking, the villagers burst into exclamations.
They looked at each other in disbelief, casting gazes containing various emotions towards Su Cheng.
The villagers' words of praise for Su Cheng seemed to be of great benefit to Raymond. He closed his eyes half-closed and looked like he was enjoying it very much.
"And I am Raymond Weir, the commander of the 1st Army of the Michael Knights! I am the right-hand person who will eventually become the commander of the regiment in the future! And this person is the commander of the 2nd Army of the Michael Knights, Se Muirbrook!”
"The two of us came to rescue the villagers of Bright Village on the orders of the regiment leader... Huh? Captain, regiment leader! Please stop looking at me with such strange eyes! Samuel, you too! You guys? Why are the two of you looking at me with such strange eyes? Did I say something wrong?"
…
…
30 minutes later.
Brett Village, home of Kellor.
"The red cabbage soup is ready. Please drink some, both of you. You must be exhausted after coming all the way in this cold weather, right? Drink some to warm your body."
As Vika spoke, he placed the two plates of beetroot soup on the low table in the living room.
"Oh, black tea soup..." Samuel, who was sitting at the low table, took a plate of red cabbage soup. "It's a very classic dish of the Holy Hiran Empire. It smells so delicious."
After briefly praising the aroma of the red cabbage soup in his hand, Samuel picked up the spoon and started drinking.
As soon as he put the soup in the spoon into his mouth, Samuel's eyes lit up.
From Samuel's expression, it can be seen that this plate of red cabbage soup is very to his liking.
Compared to Samuel who was leisurely tasting beetroot soup, Raymond didn't have so much leisure time.
Raymond, who was also in the living room at this time, stood up straight and apologized to Su Cheng, who was sitting cross-legged opposite him and looking at him helplessly:
"I'm really sorry! I was too stupid! I didn't understand the expression in your eyes, the captain, and exposed your identity as the captain!"
This was the countless times Su Cheng heard Raymond apologize to him tonight.
"Okay, okay, no need to apologize. I don't blame you. I have never been angry with you. After you helped me inform the villagers of my true identity, there are still many benefits, such as: the villagers At this time, everyone has calmed down, no longer afraid of the coming horse thieves, and can go to sleep peacefully."
"But... there are still some disadvantages..."
After saying that, Su Cheng glanced out the window of the living room with a look of helplessness on his face.
Because the identity was leaked, many curious people were gathered outside the house, hoping to catch a glimpse of the leader of the Michael Knights.
After all, there are still many people in the village who have never seen Su Cheng's face carefully.
"I'm really sorry!"
"Ah, okay, okay, you really don't need to apologize anymore. Just sit down and eat beetroot soup in peace. This is a military order and you are not allowed to disobey it."
"……yes……"
The hall was a bit crowded at this time because there were too many people in the hall at this time.
Su Cheng, Alyssa, Alan, Kailuoer's family of three, Raymond, and Samuel are all here at this time.
While Raymond and Samuel were eating the red cabbage soup cooked by Vika in silence, Vika was kneeling respectfully aside, rubbing her hands together out of restraint.
Although Yegor, who was kneeling next to Vika, was not as restrained as Vika, his expressions and movements were not as natural as before.
The strangeness between the two of them at this time naturally did not escape Su Cheng's eyes.
That’s why I don’t want to reveal my identity as the leader of the Knights…
Su Cheng sighed helplessly in his heart.
