Chapter 402: Borg’s Despair

Not long after, Borg appeared at the side door.

Following him were the old butler in charge of the firm, as well as the family butler that Kant had seen before, who was captured in the Nahrin Desert together with Borg back then.

But compared to their once humble and down-and-out appearance, they were clearly more spirited now.

Hair oil was smeared on their heads.

The clothes on their bodies were all top-notch noble attire.

Top-notch accessories were hung on their bodies, and there was an emerald ring on their slender and white fingers.

Other than their gloomy and unsightly expressions, if they met him outside, he would definitely be regarded as the legitimate son of a top-notch noble. The family butler beside him was also a hereditary butler that could only be passed down from generation to generation by a top-notch noble.

“Lord Borg.” the maidservants who were originally standing by the wall saw their master and came over one after another to salute.

Borg did not care. Instead, with a gloomy expression, he swept his gaze over the 10 Sarrandian Horsemen who were sitting in the hall. He directly waved his hand and berated the maidservants, “Retreat.”

The maidservants could not wait to leave and immediately retreated.

The room immediately became quiet.

“Mr. Borg.” Cheshire also walked over and nodded, standing behind Borg.

“Mm.” Borg also nodded, his expression softening slightly. However, looking at the 10 Sarrandian Horsemen who were still sitting on the chairs in the hall, he could not help but say in a deep voice, “You guys can come over too.”

However, the 10 Sarrandian Horsemen did not seem to hear him and continued to sit on the chairs.

This made Borg annoyed.

“I’m not familiar with you.” He gritted his teeth and snorted coldly.

He looked at Kant and forced a smile on his gloomy face. “Mr. Kant, I really didn’t expect you to come to my firm. However, I can’t receive you tonight because I have to attend the port governor’s banquet.”

“Banquet.” Kant smiled calmly. “Do you like to attend the banquet at nine o’clock?”

“If I want to.” Borg, on the other hand, leaned on his black cane and raised his chin slightly. His expression was slightly arrogant. “I can attend.”

His tone paused. He looked at Kant, who did not have the slightest hint of anger. Instead, there was a playful look on his face. Borg narrowed his eyes slightly. “I am about to win the daughter of the port governor and obtain the title of baron. Although I am a noble in the palace, I have already established my foundation in the Silver Platter Kingdom. I can buy a village on the south bank of the Renistons River.”

Kant smiled and said, “On the south bank of the Renistons River, I remember that it should be Fort Nazaire. It was occupied by the Silver Platter Kingdom ten years ago. The villages and farmland there have also been allocated to the villagers of the Silver platter kingdom for reclamation.”

“But I have connections.” Borg raised his eyebrows and said, “The financial officer of Fort Nazaire is my good friend!”

Kant continued to smile and nodded. “Oh, that’s good.”

However, Borg felt humiliated by Kant’s calm appearance. The recent honor had made him a little lost. However, when he glanced at the two grand knights who were dressed in ordinary clothes but actually possessed extraordinary powers, he still suppressed his anger, he said, “Lord Kant, you have to understand the current situation.”

“The current situation?”

Kant was still acted flighty, he pretended to be confused and asked, “Please answer.”

“Ha.” Borg gritted his teeth. He could not maintain his gentlemanly demeanor.

He took half a step forward and looked at Kant. He was not afraid at all. He slowly said, “The East County is not the North County. Countess Agatha controls everything. Even Grand Duke Cameron could not infiltrate this place.”

Kant smiled playfully. “And then?”

“What do you want!” Borg completely lost his patience. “Kant, do you really think that the 2,000 great silver coins you once gave me and these 10 ingrates that can’t be fed enough can buy me off!?”

“What do you mean?” Kant was not angry.

“I’ll give you 3,000 great silver coins!” Borg did not hesitate.

He glanced at the two guards and gritted his teeth, “Our relationship ends here. Don’t think that your table salt is what I need. If I want, I can use my own trade caravan to buy it from other merchants.” He paused and then said solemnly, “My Borg Chamber of Commerce will always be mine. Even you can’t interfere.”

“Yes.” Kant nodded. “Of course it’s yours.”

“Mr. Borg, Mr. Kant.” The old butler said at this time, “How about this? We used to be friends. We will hold a grand banquet tomorrow and invite the noble and famous people of the East County City to come as a welcome ceremony.”

“They will come because of me.” Borg also curled the corners of his mouth.

Looking at Kant, Borg continued, “Then I will take my leave first. The governor of the port is still waiting for me. If nothing goes wrong, I will give you 3,000 great silver coins at noon tomorrow. Mr. Kant, we don’t have much to talk about, but I also want to thank you for the help you gave me back then.”

“No, no, no, it’s not like that.” Kant smiled and raised his right hand, indicating for a pause. “Please wait.”

“Is there anything else?” Borg took half a step back.

He was still afraid of Kant’s calm expression, or rather, of the two grand knights behind him, he could not help but warn, “I am now a top-notch merchant in the East County City. I am qualified to attend even Countess Agatha’s banquet. If you want to make a move, I hope you can think clearly about the current situation.”

“I heard that Mr. Kant, you have always been under great pressure from the other noble families in the North County. However, in the East County, we can become friends.”

The personal butler also smiled. “What do you think?”

“What do I think?”

Kant still smiled.

However, he said in a sarcastic tone, “Back then, you were not like this when you knelt before me like a dog. Why? Do you think that you can be a gentleman in front of me now that you have done well?”

The hall suddenly fell silent.

Cheshire looked at everything in front of him in shock.

The old butler was also shocked and didn’t know what to say.

But for Borg and his personal butler, their faces were extremely red. It was as if someone had slapped them a dozen times. In fact, Kant’s action was indeed slapping their faces.

In the past six months, Borg had never heard such vulgar words!

He pointed at Kant and was so angry that he could not speak. “You... you really... really...”

“I’m telling the truth.” Kant pulled the chair over.

He sat down directly and looked at Borg who was standing in front of him. “I don’t need 3,000 great silver coins. Remember what I told you before? Don’t choose to betray me.”

“I’m not loyal to you.” Borg’s face turned red. “You’re just a small baron!”

“That’s right.” Kant nodded. “But you’re not even a Baron.”

“So what you’re a baron?” Borg roared angrily. “This is East County. If I call my friends, you won’t even be able to leave the East County. You’ll be hacked to death in this port. Do you understand? Don’t think that just because you have two grand knights, it doesn’t matter. This is the East County!”

“It seems like your friends didn’t tell you anything.” Kant narrowed his eyes, and the mocking smile on his face became more intense. “If they had told you, I’m afraid you would still be kneeling in front of me.”

“What on earth are you talking about?”

Borg’s face turned red, but his anger strangely disappeared.

He looked at Cheshire, who remained silent like he was not involved.

He also saw the shock in Cheshire’s eyes. He slowly turned his head and saw the other eight guards in linen robes standing up at the same time. His hand that was holding the wooden staff trembled slightly, he was completely stunned, “They... they are all... grand knights...”

The red light appeared before his eyes. All of these grand knights in front of him terrified him. He did not even know what qualifications he had to oppose Kant.

Even Cheshire, who was also a grand knight, was terrified as well.

In front of these mighty grand knights, what was he?

At this time, he also remembered Kant’s words.

He finally understood why those noble friends had been a lot more cautious in the past two days.

But when he asked them what had happened, no one told him. They just told him to be more steady recently. Now that he thought about it carefully, it was clear that those noble friends had heard the news of Kant’s arrival!

Avilis Castle was a necessary route to come here and related it to the so-called transformation of Viscount Gibran into a demon.

How could Borg not have guessed that it was the infamous Baron Kant in front of him!

“You should know now.” Kant smiled.

Sitting on the chair, he looked at Borg and said calmly, “Kneel down and beg for my forgiveness.”

“Plop.” Borg knelt down without hesitation. “Kant... Baron Kant, please forgive my rudeness! Forgive my rudeness!” his whole body trembled, and he felt like he had turned back to the son of that broken businessman.

At this time, even the personal butler had knelt down, including the old butler.

“And you,” Kant looked at Cheshire. “Kneel down.”

The ten Lion Knights behind him placed their hands on the hilt of their swords and looked at him coldly. Red light flashed, and the extraordinary power that belonged to the Sarleon national knights slowly spread out with a dense killing intent.

“I... I am a Grand Knight sent by the Silver Platter Kingdom...” Cheshire gulped.

His arrogance and pride had disappeared without a trace. There was only fear, “You cannot treat me like this!”

“A grand knight sent by the Silver Platter Kingdom?” Kant’s lips curled up. “I’ll make you kneel.”

“Plop.” Cheshire only felt his legs go weak.

The premonition of death made him kneel on the ground without hesitation. “Baron Kant, please forgive my rudeness. My family was once loyal to Princess Sofia. I hope you know this.”

“Oh, Princess Sofia, my mother.”

Kant smiled calmly. “Very well, things are getting more and more interesting.” He looked at Cheshire, he said, “Then what is your purpose in coming to the Dukedom of Leo? I know clearly that the former subordinates of Princess Sofia were left behind on the Resniston River and become the lowly bandits!”
