Hong San could not speak.

Logically speaking, he naturally did not want Kang De to run around. After all, the Viscount had ordered him to serve Lord Kang De. If this distinguished guest of Cathay encountered anything bad during this period, if the Viscount pursued the matter, he, Hong San, would definitely not be able to escape. He would definitely be the first to be punished.

He still had this self-awareness.

However, he could not change Kang De’s mind.

This was because he was only a servant and had no right to interfere with the guests’ schedule.

Therefore, he forced a smile and said, “Master, wait a moment. I’ll prepare the carriage for you.”

Kang De said, “There’s no need. I like to walk.”

Hong San’s smile became even more forced. “That’s not good. The road is dusty and dirty. Why don’t you ride a horse? I’ll choose a horse for you. It’ll definitely be good.”

Kang De shook his head and said, “There’s no need. I don’t know how to ride a horse. I’m afraid of riding it.”

Hong San was about to cry.

He did not know how to ride a horse?

—Oh my Lord Kang, I can see it clearly. That Iron Halberd is almost the strongest warhorse in the entire Viscounty. You pinched its mouth and it didn’t dare to move. Is this called not knowing how to ride a horse?

He looked bitter as he searched his mind for other reasons.

Kang De placed his hands behind his back and said, “Alright, there’s no need to find a reason. Go and report to your master.”

Hong San jolted and looked at Kang De with fear and panic.

Kang De said, “You’re not going, right? Then let’s leave now.”

“I’ll go! I’ll go!”

Hong San nodded like a chick pecking at rice and hurriedly retreated out the door. In the end, he did not forget to nod and bow, “Master, wait here for a moment. I’ll be back soon.”

Kang De watched him disappear and a cold smile appeared on his face.

Through the answer just now, Hong San’s personality was almost clear. This fellow was born to be a dog. With his survival philosophy, he would definitely obey the Viscount and serve him as his true master.

At the very least, Hong San had to report what he had just said to Samuel.

In other words, the entrapment that Kang De deliberately said was to lure Knight Glenn to the chaotic town to take revenge and take the opportunity to kill him. This plan would definitely reach the viscount’s ears. This noble definitely did not want to see this happen. The higher-ups hated trouble.

Therefore, the Viscount would most likely remind and warn that stupid knight. He would even secretly send people to protect Kang De.

Therefore, there would not be any danger wandering around this time, and this was not the main point. Kang De did not want to fish, but he wanted to disgust that stupid knight again. This was because although this fellow was narrow-minded and petty, he would not necessarily attack Kang De in the town. The probability was even very small… However, this was not important.

Most importantly, Kang De wanted to take the opportunity to disgust this guy.

This made him useless and furious, and then he took his anger out on Hong San even more. This was Kang De’s goal… He had his own thoughts on how to deal with Knight Glenn and Hong San.

This was only one of the parts.

In other words, only one sentence that Kang De and Hong San had said was true.

He had to think of a way to kill Glenn.

“An arrogant racist who looks down on strangers. He’s narrow-minded and prideful. Moreover, he doesn’t hide his hostility and hatred for me…”

Kang De said in a low voice, “Whether you die or not will depend on Hong San’s luck…”

He sat on the chair and thought carefully. Occasionally, he looked up and saw himself in the mirror.

His expression was indifferent and his eyes were sharp.

Kang De was horrified.

This cold expression disappeared without a trace. He patted his cheek.

“D*mn, what’s going on?”

He shook his head, then smiled bitterly. “How did I become like this?”

Kang De, who lived on Earth, would not do this.

He would not think of manipulating or killing a person.

When did his mentality… change?

Was it when he designed to destroy the Wayne Wings? Or when he took out his lighter when facing the Goethe people?

Or… before?

Kang De was stunned for a long time and sighed softly.

He felt a little confused.

When Hong San returned, he saw Kang De sitting in a chair in a daze.

He whispered, “Master?”

Kang De came back to his senses and glanced at him. “Are you ready?”

Hong San nodded.

Therefore, Kang De stood up. “Let’s go and do something good.”

“Huh?”

He slowly left the manor and walked out of the territory of the Viscount’s residence along the flat stone road. Outside the noble and elegant life, the real and ordinary world entered Kang De’s eyes.

The bustling town, the lively market, and the sand became lively.

A smile appeared on Kang De’s face.

It was not that he was very down-to-earth, nor did he enjoy life in the market. It was just that compared to the neat and elegant viscount residence, this place undoubtedly had an additional sense of liveliness.

No matter how tidy and particular the viscount’s residence was, it was only the residence of a small noble. In terms of environment and comfort, it might not be comparable to the high-end hotels on Earth. In Kang De’s eyes, those could only be called novel and not bad. They could not make him addicted, but they felt unfamiliar to him. To an Earthling, the lively foreign style in front of him made him feel more refreshed.

Be it the shops along the street or the people passing by, all were very interesting to Kang De.

Hong San frowned and followed behind Kang De. He whispered, “Master, what’s so good about the things here? If you want to play, why don’t we go to the tavern or…”

Kang De shook his head and said, “No, just walk and take a look.”

Hong San muttered, “Your interest is really unique. These barbarians work tirelessly every day and have very little time to catch their breath. It’s like this every day. What’s there to see?”

Kang De was about to speak when a ragged child approached from the front. His body was dirty. He looked like he had long planned it and had a clear goal. He reached out to him, “Sir, please take pity on me and give me some money…”

Hong San passed Kang De and kicked him. “Get lost!”

With a plop, the little beggar was kicked over and fell to the ground. He did not cry or shout. Instead, he subconsciously hugged his head and curled up.

The surrounding pedestrians only glanced at it before indifferently doing their own thing.

Kang De was shocked and said sternly, “What are you doing!”

Hong San was shocked, then he smiled and explained, “Master, I’ve seen many of these little beggars. They’re all very cunning. Seeing that you’re dressed well, they wanted to come up and beg. They’re very scheming…”

He wanted to say more, but when he saw Kang De’s sharp gaze, his heart skipped a beat. He immediately bent down and helped the little beggar up. Ignoring the filth on the other party’s body, he reached out and patted the dust. He casually took out a few coins and stuffed them into the other party’s hand. He smiled and said, “Little guy, don’t be afraid. He was joking with you just now. Take this money to buy some food…”

Kang De walked forward, squatted down, and sized up the little beggar.

He was dirty and his hair had not been washed for a long time. His body emitted an unpleasant smell. He subconsciously avoided Kang De’s gaze, like a pitiful little mouse.

Kang De said softly, “Are you alright?”

The little beggar nodded gently.

Kang De took out a few silver coins from his pocket. After attacking the Wayne Wings, he obtained a lot of spoils of war. Tina was meticulous and had thought everything through. She had also prepared some money for him in advance.

He stuffed the money into the little beggar’s hand. “Take it and do some small business, or…”

Seeing this, Hong San said, “Master, you’re benevolent, but giving him so much money will harm him.”

“I know,” Kang De said, “but isn’t Viscount Samuel in charge here? Hong San, I’ll leave this to you. I only want to see the outcome.”

Hong San hesitated for a moment before saying, “That’s easy. We just have to make a trip.”

Kang De nodded. “Alright.”

Therefore, he made a trip.

When he walked to the little beggar’s house, it was in the corner of the town. It was a dilapidated house that was in disrepair. Apart from the little beggar, there was also his grandmother. The old woman was already blind and could not do anything.

“We just have to make a trip. Everyone in town knows that I’m a big shot under the viscount.”

Hong San said, “On this trip, we can warn these bumpkins around not to have any thoughts they shouldn’t have. As for this little beggar, it’s easy to deal with. There’s no need for the Viscount. As long as I say the word, there will be shopkeepers willing to take him in as an apprentice and let him learn some skills. He won’t have to worry about food and clothing in the future.”

“That’s good.”

Kang De nodded and asked the little beggar, “What’s your name?”

The other party hesitated for a moment and said softly, “Li… Liszt…”

Kang De smiled. “Then, Liszt, goodbye. I hope your life can change. I’ll come and see you again… Everything will be better.”

This little guy was timid and introverted. He did not like to speak and did not dare to speak. His grandmother was also extremely timid. After asking for a long time, he could not find out the story of this family… so it was meaningless.

What was meaningful was the future.

He said, “Goodbye.”

Kang De and Hong San left. Before long, a shout came from behind, “Sir!”

He turned around and the little beggar, Liszt, ran to him quickly. He raised his little face and said seriously, “Can I know your name?”

Kang De smiled and said, “My name is Kang De.”

“Mr. Kang De, thank you,” the little guy said seriously. “I’ll repay you. When I become a knight, I’ll definitely repay you!”

Hong San was stunned, then he laughed, “Knight? What daydream are you talking about…”

Kang De glanced at him and let this fellow swallow the mockery. He looked at the child in front of him and smiled, “Compared to your repayment, I hope that after you become a knight, you can help more people who need help.”

After bidding farewell to Liszt, the two of them left this area. Hong San could not help but say, “Master, this little beggar is simply daydreaming. Does he want to become a knight? What a joke. I’ve been here for so many years. The son of this tiger is a tiger, and the son of a rat is a rat. How can he have such a future? Knight? He probably doesn’t know what a good father he needs to become a knight…”

He looked at Kang De’s expression and could not help but say, “Don’t tell me you take his repayment seriously? Let me tell you, don’t take it to heart. These b*stards who roll in the mud only have a nice mouth. Whatever you like to hear, he’ll tell you. In my opinion, it’s fine if you do good deeds, but don’t…”

Kang De said indifferently, “In life, it’s better to be kind. The heavens are watching what people do. Perhaps the cause you planted today will become the result tomorrow… I only feel that since you have the ability, why don’t you do it? That’s all.”

When Hong San heard this, he smacked his lips.

“I don’t really understand these principles. I was born stupid. Master also thinks I’m stupid.” He touched his head, “I only feel that since you can say this, you must be a high and mighty figure. How can the people who really live below understand these?”
