Chapter 287: I'm not taking responsibility

Robb was almost driven crazy by the woman's sudden turn of words.
He had no strength to be angry and said weakly, “I'm sorry.
I grew up in the countryside and was raised by my mother.
I've never seen my father since I was a child.
I'm completely unaware of what happened with my father in the past.
I don't admit that I have such a father, so I won't be responsible for what he said in the past.”

“Well, don't worry.
I didn't ask you to take responsibility.” Madeleine said seriously “Although I was only five years old at that time, I was not stupid enough to accept the marriage between the nobility by such means.
The Smith family and my family were both famous families at that time, and our marriage could not be settled by a joke.
How could I agree? Moreover, not long after that matter, the black dragon came.
My father died, and so did your father.
Our two families were no longer what they used to be.”

Robb was speechless

You were only five years old and you know all these? You are indeed the best friend of that damn woman! As the saying goes, “the closer one is the darker one is.
The bestie of that damn woman was also a damn woman, full of schemes.

Madeleine stretched out her right hand to Robb and said, “we are the only survivors of our clans.
I hope you can give us more advice in the future.”
  Robb shook hands with her, but he didn't hold the girl's soft hand.
Instead, he held the cold iron gloves.
He even felt a faint dark magic flowing on the girl's palm.
It was obvious that she had prepared a black magic in advance when she shook hands.
If Robb suddenly hurt someone, she could immediately react.

How insecure was she? Even at the gate of the capital city, her subordinates had to prepare magic to shake hands with others.

Robb didn't play any tricks and shook her hands seriously.

Madeleine didn't say anything more.
Seeing that Robb entered the city and followed the other young nobles to the magic school, she suddenly waved her hand and shouted, “Fourth uncle was very good to me back then.
If you have any difficulties, you can come to me.”

Robb turned around and nodded at her.
Then he continued to follow the second-generation nobles.
  After walking far away, Kante said in a low voice, “brother Robb, the Duke Madeleine is very fond of you.
With her taking care of you, you can be free at Bright Road from now on.
No one will dare to hurt you except the queen.”

Robb laughed and said, “you're joking.
How can a man rely on a woman to cover him? Shame! I will only rely on myself.”

Kante laughed, “don't treat her as a woman, she’s a duke.”

Robb smiled and said nothing.

Seeing the calmness and ease on his face, Kante thought, [it seems that Robb is arrogant and relying on women.
Oh, it's really a waste.
If my family can be trusted by the queen and the duke, it will be a great opportunity for us to fly… tsk, the resources.]
  They walked through the streets of Bright Road.

Robb observed what big cities in this world looked like.

Sure enough, it was the capital of the Empire.
The city was so huge that it was not like Westwind Town.
The street was incomparably prosperous and packed with people.
There were shops everywhere on both sides of the street, selling weapons, food, cloth, spices…
There were all kinds of them, and even an adventurer guild.

Robb saw the “Royal dessert shop” at a glance.
There was a big advertising board hanging at the door of the shop, on which there was a picture of pudding.
Next to it, there was a brochure, “new products are on the market.
Pudding, a specialty of Westwind Town; worth two gold coins.
The quantity of goods is limited.
If you want to buy it, hurry up.”

Pointing at the advertisement, George laughed and said, “it only takes 50 copper coins to buy things from Godfather in Westwind Town.
It's so funny to spend two gold coins for it here.”

“Yes, I used to think I was a woodlouse.
But now that I’m here in Bright Road, I feel that the people here are woodlice, hahaha.”

The rich-second generations nobles laughed together! Their laughter was full of superiority.

Seeing these two goods, Robb just wanted to shake his head.

At this time, one of them pointed to the front and shouted, “ah, look! That's the Church of Darkness.
It used to be called the Church of Light, but now it's all black.”

Following the direction he pointed, a magnificent church stood in front of him on the right.
The overall style was black.
On the open space in front of the church, there was a huge statue of the God of darkness.
A large group of priests and nuns in black robes, as well as believers, came in and out of the church.

Robb had already known a lot of things from the two little dark nuns.
The headquarters of the Church of Darkness was located in the city of lost on the southwest coast of the continent.
The Church of Darkness in Bright Road, was rebuilt from the Church of Light.
It was now the second largest Church of Darkness in Fengmo Continent.

There were countless experts, dark priests, dark nuns, knights, and judgers.

They were extremely powerful!

In fact, without the help of these people, the queen wouldn't have been able to forcibly grab so many territories from Mondra.


Robb lifted his foot and walked towards the Church of Darkness.
He had to “Light up the waypoint”.
In the game “Dark Blade”, the way to light up a waypoint of a city was to go to the cemetery of the church.
Only in a city with a lit up waypoint could the portal be opened.

“Hey, Robb what are you doing going there?” asked Kante.

Robb said, “such a large church seems to be very influential.
I have never seen it in the countryside.
If I want to go in and have a look, the church won't reject tourists, right?”

The other rich second generation nobles who had never been to Bright Road also cheered up, “Okay, okay, let's go inside and have a look.”

Therefore, they left their servants and guards outside the church, and the group went into the church together.

Robb didn't go directly to the cemetery, in case his movements were too suspicious.
He asked the two rich second-generation nobles to lead the way, and he followed them quietly, so that no one would doubt him.

The two young men who were walking in front of him were immediately welcomed by a dark priest.
They were talking about the teachings of the God of darkness.
Anyway, the two religions in Westwind Town were united into one, and everyone could recite a few words from their bibles, no matter it was the Bible of Light or Bible of Darkness.
The rich young nobles were skillful in dealing with the dark priest.
