Chapter 322 Thaddeus’ Holiday
My name is Thaddeus, I am a Spartan, and I am currently serving in the Knights of Winter.
Because of the frequent dispatches some time ago, and not long ago, he was sent to Baiyan City in the south of the Kingdom of Tyran to protect the great princess of the Kingdom of Tyran and the man named Sutton Stewart.
So after the mission, the team leader Gareth Stanton gave us a vacation so that we could do something we wanted to do and relax.
I had a comrade from Sparta like me and invited me to go back to Sparta, but I refused. I just wanted to stay in Winter City.
The longer I live in Winter City, the less I feel willing to go back to Sparta. Anyway, I have no family to worry about, and I don’t want to go back to that backward place.
Sitting up from the soft and comfortable bed, I looked at the alarm clock on the head of the bed.
I turned off the alarm before going to bed, but I still woke up at this time. The habits I developed for a long time are not so easy to change. Even if I was on vacation today and could sleep until any time, I was not sleepy now.
Get up, get dressed, wash.
This is my home in Winter City, Earl of Glamorgan... Oh, now it should be the Duke of Glamorgan who is very generous to the soldiers. In addition to his normal salary, there are additional bonuses for each battle.
Since I was usually in the military camp and had no money to spend, I quickly saved up a deposit and then used the money to buy this house, which made me feel like I had become a real Winter man.
Many Spartans who came to Winter City with me didn't know that I had settled down here.
"Good morning, Mr. Thaddeus."
"Good morning, Marianne."
I was greeted by my tenant, Marianne and her husband Abbas from a small village southeast of Iron Tree Fort, and later came to Winter City after seeing the announcement issued by the Kingdom of Tyran.
The middle-aged couple, along with their ten-year-old son, Rany, live on the first floor, will help me clean and see the house when I am not at home.
"Good morning, Lord Thaddeus."
"Good morning, Abbas, I've said it, don't call me sir."
"Lord Thaddeus is a knight of the Knights of Winter, so of course I would like to call you Lord."
"I'm just an ordinary soldier, not a knight."
"It'll be so soon."
I have lived in Winter City for so long, and I know what the title of Knight means, but there are rumors that the Duke is preparing to make some adjustments to these bans, and I don’t know what the situation will be.
"Lanny, haven't gotten up yet? Even Lord Thaddeus has gotten up. You are still sleeping in. Do you want to go to school without breakfast?"
Listening to Abbas' roar at his son, I tore off a piece of bread in front of me and stuffed it into my mouth, then forked up some scrambled eggs.
While chewing slowly, I cut off a piece of bacon and stuffed it into my mouth. I chewed it a few times before swallowing it.
There is no need to rush to train, nor do I have to worry about suddenly having a task to be executed. I will completely relax today... Huh? Why is the meat gone? It seems that I only ate two or three bites!
Looking at the small amount of bread left in my hand, I sighed again: The habits I have developed for a long time are indeed not so easy to change!
After breakfast, I left the restaurant and came to the back door.
The house is facing the street, but there is a completely personal yard behind the house. From the back door to the yard, the verdant green makes people feel good. I began to think about whether to make a cup of tea and bask in the sun in the yard to read books? Just pass this day over?
Just as I was thinking about this, I suddenly found a young girl standing in the yard next door. She had outstanding height and beautiful red hair.
Looking at this girl's outstanding physique, I think she can give birth to a very healthy and strong Spartan warrior. Should I take the initiative to say hello to her? Maybe my son has an excellent enough mother!
"Hello!"
Before I could speak, the red-haired girl opposite had already greeted me. Although she had a little accent, it was nothing. Many people in Winter City had a little accent, and they would slowly disappear after staying for a while.
"Hello, my name is Thaddeus."
"My name is Sansa Stark."
"Stark?" This surname is so familiar, and it seems that you often hear it. After thinking about it for a few seconds, I didn't think about it, so I was too lazy to continue to worry about this question: "Did you just come to Winter City?"
"I just arrived here shortly..."
The girl named Sansa was halfway through her words, and another blonde girl came out of the house next door. The other party looked at me in surprise: "You are..."
"My name is Thaddeus."
"Oh, you are the owner of this house. I heard Marian mention you."
The blonde girl immediately changed into a bright smile. It seemed that she was doubting my identity just now, and I didn't care about it. It is a good thing for young girls to be a little wary. Recently, it is not very peaceful in Winter City.
"My name is Shirley Birkin. I just moved here not long ago. I am your neighbor."
"So that's it...Welcome to Winter City."
Unexpectedly, I had the opportunity to say this, and as she smiled and thanked me, I felt more and more that I was a real Winter Man.
I chatted with the two neighbors through the low wall. I really wanted to introduce this beautiful city to the two "newcomers" as my master, but when I was about to speak, I realized that I actually didn't know so much about what fun places are in Winter City.
After all, I stayed in the military camp most of the time, and Winter City developed very quickly. During this holiday, I found that there were more houses in the entire city and many new shops.
But it doesn’t matter, I can act as a flower protector!
No matter where the two girls want to go, I will just go with me.
"Sansa wants to go to school."
"School?" I thought about it, the only school in Winter City is Winter Academy: "Winter Academy?"
"Yes." Shirley nodded, affirming my guess: "Sansa wants to know what her peers here in Winter City do on their usual basis."
"People of the age?"
"Yes, Sansa is only thirteen."
“…”
I looked at Shirley and then at Sansa. I seriously suspected that Shirley was fooling me. How could she look like she was only thirteen years old?
But if you think about it from another perspective, you have such a good physique at the age of thirteen and will definitely grow into a very excellent mother in the future!
But I was a little concerned about the surname Stark. This seemed to be a great person... Well... The chief consultant of Winter City seemed to be the last name of Stark. This Sansa Stark, could it be the daughter of the consultant?
I felt a little panicked and kept thinking about my performance just now, whether I had offended this girl named Sansa.
Because I gradually remembered that the consultant didn't seem to be a good person to contact. If I had inexplicably provoked the other party, wouldn't my wonderful life in Winter City end here?
A headache, should I apologize first?
Thankfully, I soon learned that Sansa Stark had no relationship with the Mr. Consultant, and it seemed that I didn't have to worry about being in trouble with the Chief Consultant.
At the same time, I also learned that Shirley is currently working in the security department and has become a patrolman not long ago.
It was a surprise that Shirley and Sansa stood together. I think Sansa was the one with stronger combat power, but the actual situation was completely the opposite.
"I know Abbas is working for the farms of Marty and Diogo; Marian works at the grocery store on the street corner; Thaddeus, what job do you do?"
"I served in the Knights of Winter." I was very proud of my identity.
But I didn't see surprise and admiration in the two girls. Shirley showed a little surprise, and Sansa... what happened with that expression that didn't know what the Knights of Winter was?
It seems that Sansa said she had just arrived in Winter City not long ago, so she didn't know what the Winter Knights meant.
Seeing Shirley whispering a few words in Sansa's ear, Sansa suddenly sighed: "So it's a knight."
Although I was surprised, it was completely different from the reaction I wanted!
Depressed, I took the public bus to Winter Academy. I had almost no chance to speak for the next visit.
When I learned that Shirley was taking Sansa to visit the school, the school directly sent a special person to take us to visit, introducing the various situations of the school throughout the process, and answering various questions raised by Sansa and Shirley at any time.
There were two soldiers from the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment who were accompanying him to "guard" to prevent any emergencies.
Looking at these two unlucky guys, I was once again glad that I had joined the Knights of Winter, otherwise I would have been assigned to the school to take turns, which would be too uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, I finally waited for the moment when the tour ended, but before I could walk out of the academy, I saw a familiar figure waiting there and directly stopped Sansa Stark.
Lord David Glamorgan, the Lord of Winter City, actually came to Sansa specifically? What's the situation?
And looking at the expression and content of the Duke talking to Shirley, this neighbor seems to be an ordinary person either!
What are the identities of these two girls?
Just as I kept guessing the true identities of Shirley and Sansa, Duke Glamorgan, who was regarded as a god in Sparta, suddenly walked in front of me.
"You are Thaddeus, a Spartan second-year student, and now serving in the Knights of Winter."
"Yes, sir!"
Looking at the Duke of Glamorgan who was close to me, I was very excited!
Lord Duke knows my name, does this mean that I have been noticed by Lord Duke? Maybe I will be able to get promoted and raise the salary shortly after, become the leader of the Knights of Winter, marry Bai Zhuangmei, and reach the peak of my life!
I was a little excited to think about it! As for Sansa... what are the three fools?
