However, he faintly smelled various unpleasant odors, seemingly a mixture of human excrements and other stenches, which made him frown.

It seemed that this area was likely a civilian district, with seemingly poor hygiene conditions.

The carriage continued to drive for about half an hour, making a left turn and two right turns, arriving at a villa district, which was significantly cleaner and broader than the civilian district seen upon entering the town.

The ground was very spacious and neat, and on the outer walls of the independent villas, a variety of meticulously planted greenery and flowers could be seen.

Even now, in the frosty month, there were still many cold-resistant flowers blooming, which was quite beautiful.

As the carriage slowly stopped, Miss Jenny gave a slight smile and said, "We\'ve arrived, Lord Reine, this is the Crawley family\'s estate here in County Town."

Experience tales with mvl

Lord Reine nodded.

Upon alighting from the carriage, Lord Reine saw the plump Lady Crawley, accompanied by two tall knights and five or six servants, waiting inside the mansion gate. Upon seeing Lord Reine descend, a smile appeared on her beautiful face and said:

"Lord Reine, welcome to the Crawley family!"

"Thank you, madam, you are too kind," Lord Reine immediately bowed slightly, smiling as he spoke.

However, he keenly noticed that the two knights by Lady Crawley\'s side seemed unwelcoming toward his arrival, even showing subtle hostility.

This was because, with the improvement of Lord Reine\'s spiritual power, and his "danger perception" reaching the Lv3 level, he could easily discern the gazes that clearly held hostility.

After a moment of thought, Lord Reine recalled that these must be the two family knights Lady Crawley had previously mentioned.

"Lord Reine, if I may, this is Knight Shelton of the Crawley family," Lady Crawley slightly raised her hand, introducing the bald knight on her left.

"Knight Shelton, hello," he said.

"Lord Reine, hello," replied the knight.

This bald knight was at least in his forties, but his tall and sturdy figure still possessed a certain menacing force.

"And this is Knight Stein," Lady Crawley then pointed to the bearded knight on her right.

"Knight Stein, hello," said Lord Reine.

"Knight Reine, hello," Stein responded.

"Lord Reine, let us then head inside; the journey must have been tiring," she said.

At this moment, the beautiful Lady Crawley proactively stepped forward, taking Lord Reine\'s left arm, and walked him inside.

As they walked, her pale, ample bosom brushed against Lord Reine\'s arm with each step.

This caused the two nearby knights to exchange glances, seeing both resentment and a kind of longing in each other\'s eyes.

Mad, seeing the fresh meat has come, she just had to stick herself to it?

Damned slut!

Still pretending to be pure in front of me.

The knight named Stein seemed even less patient, and upon seeing this scene, it wasn\'t long before he couldn\'t restrain himself and spontaneously said:

"I heard that Lord Reine has only recently become Transcendent?"

"Yes, Knight Stein, I indeed have become Transcendent less than a month ago," Lord Reine nodded, casually replying.

"Oh? I thought that was just a rumor. While it\'s not impossible for a new knight to become a Guardian Knight of the Crawley family, shouldn\'t a Guardian Knight display convincing strength?"

"How about it, Lord Reine, would you mind demonstrating on the training ground? Of course, I can act as your sparring opponent," Stein suggested with seemingly reasonable doubt, yet with an undertone of provocation.

This caused Lady Crawley, who was holding Lord Reine\'s hand, to tense noticeably.

Clearly, she was annoyed that Stein had so quickly proposed a duel with Lord Reine; she thought it would at least wait until the afternoon, or perhaps even later, for such a scenario to unfold.

"Stein, you are too impudent. Lord Reine has just arrived...." Lady Crawley chided, quite angered.

This quickly?

The real action has already begun?

Lord Reine raised his eyebrows; having promised Lady Crawley and since he had also taken money on the carriage ride, he naturally had to handle the matter well.

He simply waved his hand, stopping Lady Crawley from continuing her speech.

"Oh? Knight Stein, are you proposing a challenge?"

Upon meeting these two family knights for the first time, Lord Reine took a careful look and realized their strength was indeed very average.

As such, Lord Reine did not intend to waste much time on these two.

He would quickly demonstrate his strength, fulfilling Lady Crawley\'s request.

This way, he could still find time to visit the army supply at County Town and perhaps even gather some information about the "Bat Market."

Wait!

Lord Reine suddenly thought these two might be great "NPCs" for experience.

He just might need to steer the situation slightly.

Thinking about his gains from the Habs estate just the day before, a faint smile rose on his lips.

Thus, he formulated a small plan in his mind.

Upon hearing Lord Reine\'s straightforward acceptance, Stein could not help but laugh.

Just a green young man after all.

A little provocation and he accepts the challenge.

This is in the bag!

"If Lord Reine doesn\'t mind, it would indeed be my honor," Stein offered ingratiatingly.
