"Hmm?"
Gray looked at the two of them in surprise, but he soon guessed their plan. He looked at them thoughtfully and said, "Let's go.
"What are your names?"
"Marlene."
"Liana."
The girl with brown hair and the girl with brown hair answered respectively.
"The work in the castle is not easy. Are you sure you want to work in the castle?"
He could roughly guess what they were thinking. After going through that disaster, they clearly understood that their families could not protect them, so they wanted to work in the castle in exchange for protection.
"Yes, sir. Please let us work in the castle."
"Okay. I will send you home to report your safety, and then I will bring you to work in the castle."
Gray nodded in agreement. He did not lose anything by taking in two beautiful maids.
The missing girls were perfectly solved. Gray and Sarah returned to Fergus Castle. He asked the head maid to arrange for the two girls to work in Fergus Castle.
With Gray's current status in Fergus Castle, it was not a problem to arrange for two maids. And because it was Gray who arranged it, the two girls were given easier jobs than other maids.
In Gray's training room in Fergus Castle.
A five-meter-long wolf-shaped blood fiend stood quietly. Its body was covered in green fur, and there were mysterious black patterns on both sides of its abdomen.
Powerful.
Majestic.
Mysterious.
Whoosh —
As Gray could not hold on any longer, he withdrew from the training state. The green wolf's figure slowly became blurred and finally disappeared completely.
Gray, who was sweating profusely, stood up, took off a towel, and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
He opened the door of the training room and saw that it was snowing outside like goose feathers falling from the sky.
The roof of the castle, the walls … all the buildings were covered in a layer of white.
It was a white world.
Because of his cultivation, Gray's clothes were rather thin, and the chill seeped into his body.
However, Gray did not feel cold. He only felt a slight coolness.
After swallowing the Ice Soul Beast's blood, Gray's body had been modified. He had a strong resistance to the cold, so he was not affected by the cold at all.
It was now November and winter had arrived.
The winter in this world was divided into three months: November, December, and January. It was slightly different from his previous world.
"Young Master Gray, quickly put on your coat!"
The maid, Barbara, walked over quickly with a coat in her arms.
Compared to the summer maid outfit, she was wearing a winter maid outfit with a lot more fluffy fur. Her beautiful figure could still be seen. As she got closer, a faint feminine fragrance wafted over.
She walked in front of Gray and carefully put the coat on Gray.
Gray smiled and didn't refuse, even though he wasn't cold.
"Young Master Gray."
"Young Master Gray."
Walking into the hall, the maids and maids were bustling around. When they saw Gray, they all saluted.
Gray saw Marlene and Liana among them. They looked at Gray with gratitude. Gray smiled and nodded at them.
After taking a hot bath, he took a book from the library and went to the warm room with a fireplace. He enjoyed the leisure time of winter with Sarah, Caroline, and the others.
Gray enjoyed the luxurious life of a noble. It was very different from his previous life.
They had personal maids, personal chefs, and personal servants to feed the horses …
There were only a few of them, but he enjoyed the service of dozens of people.
Of course, he also understood that the reason he could enjoy such a life was because he had great strength and sufficient power.
It was because of these that he could live such a comfortable life. Knowing the relationship between the two, he naturally wouldn't be worn down by such a comfortable life.
Clop, clop, clop!
Heavy snow swirled in the air. A man in battle attire was riding a sturdy warhorse, galloping through the snow.
The horse was panting heavily, its breath turning into white smoke.
His battle attire and hair were covered with snow.
He didn't wipe it off with his hands. Instead, he looked ahead.
On the hillside in front of him, a castle covered in snow appeared. That was his destination, Fergus Castle.
In the afternoon, Gray and Bernal were called to Viscount Fergus's study.
The two opened the door and saw Viscount Fergus sitting in front of the desk with a solemn expression.
On the desk was an opened envelope. The wax seal on the envelope was a blood beast with three sharp horns on its head. It was the emblem of the Sidney family.
"Father, what is written in the letter?"
Sensing that something might have happened, Bernal raised his eyebrows and asked.
Today, he knew that a messenger from the Sidney family had come to the castle.
"The Sidney family has decided to take action against the Shadow Serpent."
Viscount Fergus said.
"Have they found the whereabouts of the Shadow Serpent?"
Gray was deep in thought.
Gray knew that the Sidney family had plans to destroy the Shadow Serpent. Once, when Zaloyan visited the Fergus family, he had mentioned it.
However, almost a year had passed since then, and there was still no news. Gray originally thought that the Sidney family had given up. He didn't expect that they would suddenly take action.
"How does the Sidney family want the Fergus family to cooperate?"
Bernal asked.
"The Sidney family doesn't intend to gather too many people, and the fewer people who know about this, the better. The Fergus family only gathered Gray and me. The other families will probably only gather people whose strength has reached the Ferocious Blood Warrior level."
At this point, Viscount Fergus looked at Gray.
"Also, they want us to bring the Mad class blood beast."
"Okay."
Gray nodded. This was within his expectations.
In order to take action against the Shadow Serpent, the stronger the combat strength, the better.
Although the four controlled Mad class blood beasts couldn't use their blood beast abilities, it was absolutely no problem for them to contend against two Ferocious Blood Warriors.
The Mad class blood beasts already had a huge impact on the battle. The Sidney family naturally wanted the Fergus family to bring out such powerful combat strength.
Of course, after Gray's selection, the four Mad class blood beasts' combat strength wasn't as simple as two Ferocious Blood Warriors.
The Windrider Leopard and the Copper Rhinoceros' blood beast abilities were their physical bodies. They could fully display their strength as Mad class blood beasts. One blood beast against one Ferocious Blood Warrior was absolutely no problem.
In addition, although the Jade Lizard couldn't use its blood beast abilities, it was still a special blood beast with powerful speed, defense, and strength. It had no problem contending against one Ferocious Blood Warrior.
Just these three blood beasts could already contend against three Ferocious Blood Warriors. With the addition of the fourth Mad class blood beast, their combat strength could be imagined.
"This time, the Sidney family annihilating the Shadow Serpent is also a good thing for us."
Viscount Fergus continued.
"The Shadow Serpent has lost too many subordinates in our hands. Even one Ferocious Blood Warrior died."
"I'm afraid that they have already reacted. In terms of hatred, the Shadow Serpent is not necessarily any weaker than the Sidney family towards our Fergus family."
Hearing Viscount Fergus talk about the grudge between the Fergus family and the Shadow Serpent, Bernal couldn't help but tremble in his heart and said in a deep voice.
"I hope that the Shadow Serpent can be annihilated this time."
"I hope so."
Gray raised his eyebrows slightly.
The Shadow Serpent had a grudge with the Sidney family for decades. Until now, they were still free and unfettered and hadn't been annihilated. This already showed how difficult it was to deal with the Shadow Serpent.
As for whether the Sidney family could succeed in taking action against the Shadow Serpent this time, although he wasn't without hope, he didn't have too much hope.
After some discussion, they decided to set off tomorrow. In the evening, it was Gray's last night at Fergus Castle.
Pushing open the bedroom door, the light from the oil lamp illuminated the room. On the bed in the bedroom, under the bedding, a slender figure could be faintly seen.
Gray walked over. The figure on the bed sensed his arrival, lifted the blanket, and walked out of the bed, revealing a beautiful figure wearing thin clothes. The towering snow-white peaks could be faintly seen.
This person was the maid in charge of warming the bed, Barbara.
She walked in front of Gray and helped Gray take off his clothes and change into his pajamas. An alluring fragrance filled Gray's nose.
Suddenly, Gray felt something soft and elastic touch his back. He turned his head and looked back, only to see the maid, Barbara, looking at him with misty eyes.
"Young Master Gray … …"
After being together for a long time, she had long developed a deep admiration for Gray, who was different from the rest.
In fact, it wasn't just her. There were many maids in the castle who admired Gray.
Young, with a delicate and pretty appearance, possessing one of the strongest strength in the castle, and having an important position in Fergus Castle … …
All these qualities made him too attractive to these young maids who were at the age of fantasizing.
Boom!
It was as if something had been ignited in Gray's heart. He pulled Barbara over and pulled her beautiful figure into his embrace.
Gray wasn't someone who could remain unruly. Being surrounded by so many beautiful maids, the only reason he had been holding himself back was because he was worried that he was too young and would easily harm his body.
Taking off Barbara's thin clothes, her perfect figure was completely revealed in front of him. Gray took off his pajamas, gently hugged her, and removed the blanket … …
