"That's amazing. Brother, do you think I'll be as amazing as Sister Qiao Li Bessemai in the future?"
Hearing Viscount Fergus's description of Bessemai's family, Sarah's eyes lit up and she looked at Gray with anticipation.
Although she was young, she was quite smart. In the past half a year, the huge changes in her living environment made her realize the importance of strength. Therefore, she was full of anticipation for the training of Blood Warriors.
"Yes, definitely."
Gray smiled and said with certainty.
As Gray threw out the topic, the atmosphere created by Baron Harris and the other two was broken. Gray and Sarah could finally participate in the conversation.
However, the atmosphere became a little strange. Baron Harris and the other two's faces twitched slightly. Obviously, they were very dissatisfied with Gray's way of turning the tables. However, Gray didn't care about their attitude.
Respect between people was mutual. Since the other party didn't respect the two of them, he naturally didn't need to respect the three of them.
In the end, it was caused by the Harris family. He was just passively retaliating.
An hour later, a servant came to inform them that dinner was ready. Everyone moved to the Harris family's dining room.
Dinner was Qing Shui fried fish, sour and sweet salad mixed with noodles, musk beef soup. It was obvious that the Harris family had put in a lot of effort in preparing this dinner.
Qing Shui's fish was reared and sold by the Ford family. While the meat was delicious, it didn't have the fishy smell of ordinary fish. It only needed to be fried with sesame oil and it would immediately become a delicious dish.
Not only were there vegetables in the salad, there were also fruits with a bit of sour and sweet taste. It had a unique flavor.
The musk beef soup was probably boiled with wild musk beef for a few hours. The taste was very strong. After drinking it in one mouthful, the mouth was filled with a rich fragrance.
Gray's appetite was great. He quickly finished his portion but didn't lose his elegance. After that, he said to the maid beside him.
"Give me another portion!"
In the end, he ate a total of three portions before stopping.
"This appetite … …?
As expected, half of the blood flowing in his body is that of a commoner. "
Baron Harris frowned slightly. He disliked Gray even more. Kevin Harris and Madam Bess almost had disdain written all over their faces.
Gray didn't care about this at all. Baron Harris and the other two didn't like him. He didn't care about their opinions. Of course, the most important thing was that he had to eat his fill.
Not only because he didn't want to starve in the middle of the night, but also because he needed to improve his strength.
His body was currently undergoing a second metamorphosis, and a large amount of nutrients would be consumed every day. If the nutrients couldn't keep up, it would affect his cultivation progress.
. Compared to his cultivation progress, the opinions of Baron Harris and Baron Harris were simply insignificant. he didn't matter.
After dinner, Bernal, Elise, and Caroline were called to his bedroom by Kevin Harris. He didn't call Gray and Sarah. The meaning of alienation was self-evident. Gray and Sarah also didn't intend to be thick-skinned and join in the fun.
"Bernal, it's not that I want to criticize you, but you're too tolerant of that bastard with the blood of the commoners flowing in his body. The more you act like this, the more he'll think that you're easy to bully."
In Kevin Harris' room, Kevin Harris said with a frown.
"That's right. Big Brother is usually too tolerant, causing that bastard to become more and more rampant. Last time, he actually stole my portion of the blood of the blood fiends … …"
In this atmosphere, Elise recalled the losses she had suffered at the hands of Gray during this period of time. The accumulated resentment towards Gray completely erupted as she spoke angrily.
"Cousin, this time you have to help me and Big Brother vent our anger."
"Don't worry, this time I'll definitely teach him a lesson."
Hearing Elise's criticism of Gray, Kevin Harris's eyes flashed with a cold light.
"Cousin, you mustn't —"
Bernal wanted to stop him, but was immediately interrupted by Kevin Harris.
"Cousin Bernal, I know you're looking at the big picture and don't want to easily come into conflict with him. But as your cousin, I can't let you and Elise suffer for nothing. You just have to watch."
"Cousin, you'll make things difficult for me if you do this."
Bernal smiled bitterly.
This was the Harris family. He couldn't stop his cousin from doing whatever he wanted. If he tipped off Gray, he would instead offend his cousin. After all, his cousin was venting his anger for him, even if the method was a bit overboard.
On the side, Caroline glanced at Kevin Harris. Her brows furrowed for a moment before relaxing.
After more than a year, when she saw her cousin again, she was less affectionate and more distant. Moreover, she did not agree with his actions.
Although her cousin's actions could make things difficult for Gray, it would inevitably break the relationship of trust that Big Brother and Gray had painstakingly built. It could be said that it was extremely disadvantageous for them when they were about to face the "challenges" from the other viscount families.
If there was a grudge between the two and they couldn't work together to face the challenges from the other viscount families, the one who would suffer in the end would be the Fergus family.
Moreover, she didn't think that her cousin could easily "make things difficult" for Gray.
After being together with Gray for more than half a year, she more or less had some understanding of him. Although he didn't usually show off his abilities, he was definitely the type of person who was extremely resourceful.
Last time, when Elise snatched his share of blood fiends' blood, he actually turned around and invited the usually neutral Lord Lynd to stand up for him. It could be seen that he was definitely the type of person who didn't lack methods.
This time, the most likely outcome of "making things difficult" for Gray was that he wouldn't be able to make things difficult for Gray and would instead embarrass himself.
It was already late at night. After taking a bath in the Harris family's bathroom and changing his clothes, Gray was led by a servant of the Harris family to the bedroom that the Harris family had arranged for him.
The formal attire had been sent by the servants of the Harris family to be cleaned. It should be dry by tomorrow morning.
In most noble families, there would be a drying room. In this room, there would be rune items that could quickly dry clothes. Even in a season where the temperature was low, heavy clothes could still be dried overnight.
Under the guidance of the servant, Gray arrived at the innermost bedroom on the second floor of the Harris Castle.
"Young Master Gray, this is your room."
The servant was a young man in his early twenties. After bringing Gray to the bedroom door, he immediately turned and left. He didn't even open the door for Gray. For any family's servant, this was very rude.
Gray raised his eyebrows. Although he felt that the servant of the Harris family was rude, he wasn't a servant of the Fergus family after all. Gray couldn't be bothered to care about this and reached out to open the door.
However, in the next moment, his face turned cold. He suddenly turned around and looked at the servant who was already more than ten meters away.
"Wait a moment."
"Young Master Gray, is there anything else?"
The young servant stopped in his tracks and slowly turned around. His eyes were slightly guilty as he asked.
"Are you sure this is my room?"
Gray's face was gloomy and his eyes were cold.
"Yes, yes … it is."
Being stared at by Gray's sharp eyes, the young servant felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast more powerful than a tiger or leopard. He couldn't even speak clearly.
This was normal. With Gray's current strength as a middle-level blood warrior, how could an ordinary tiger or leopard compare to him? Most importantly, he had participated in actual combat and killed people and beasts. He had already accumulated some murderous aura.
Usually, this murderous aura wasn't easy to detect. However, when he was angry, this murderous aura was stimulated and immediately made the young servant, who was an ordinary person, feel cold all over.
"Looks like the Harris family isn't just thrifty."
Gray's eyes were cold.
Just now, when he opened the door, he immediately discovered that the bedsheets and the plush blanket in the bedroom were extremely old and tattered. He could even see many traces of mending.
This wasn't a big deal. As long as it was still usable, he wouldn't care about it even if it was a bit old.
During his time in Fergus Castle, although he lived a noble's life, it wasn't to the extent that he became picky and couldn't stand the mended bedsheets and plush blankets.
However, what made him even angrier was that there was a moldy smell coming from these bedsheets and plush blankets.
If he were to sleep in such a room for a night, he would probably be covered in a moldy smell the next day.
