Baron Ges was quite fortunate.
Although he did not et Commander Knight l, at least Adela, the security officer, had always been here, so he didn't suffer another embarrassnt.
Not daring to neglect the baron's invitation, Adela had also dressed up elaborately, and then rode his horse to the entrance of the town.
"Honorable Lord Ges, what wind has blown you here?"
Without ntioning Commander Knight l at all, Baron Ges raised his chin and said.
"Winter is approaching, and as the lord of Silver Pine Town, I need to see how the preparations of the townsfolk are going..."
Hearing this reply, Adela's face showed a surprised expression, not knowing which act this fellow was putting on now.
What lord would inspect his territory in a full suit of plate armor?
Moreover, Ges was never good at martial arts; not even the previous Demon King could make him don armor, so why did winter stir such a whim?
However, that was not really an important matter after all.
Adela didn't care what Baron Ges was really here for; he was secretly delighted that he had finally found this once-in-a-lifeti opportunity.
Just last month, Lord Demon King had assigned him a task, asking him to find a way to sell the Earth Cave Spider Silk textiles to the local lord.
Although Adela was eager to show them to the baron, he had struggled to find the right opportunity, which is why the matter had been dragging on until now.
Now, the opportunity had finally arrived.
To fully showcase the product's features and advantages, he had specifically changed into a set of light skirted armor, and slipped the white socks, which were as long as pants, over his legs.
To be fair, he had thought he would freeze his knees off, but unexpectedly, the seemingly thin fabric was surprisingly warm?
Of course, it might also be his thick leg hair that was keeping him warm.
In any case, it was excellent at blocking the wind.
"Having such a kind, gracious, and generous lord is truly the good fortune of the people of Silver Pine Town, accumulated over several lifetis... So, honorable Baron, where would you like to start the inspection?"
"The granary... I will look at that first," Ges said as he spoke, his raised chin unconsciously following his gaze downward, his eyes fixed intently upon Adela's legs.
Was that...
Pants?
It seed not quite so.
The silk fabric that clung to muscle curves perfectly showcased the beautiful contours of the legs, without seeming too deliberate or exposed.
Most critically, while displaying muscle lines, the attire also effectively covered the unseemly leg hair!
Of course, Ges would never admit he was drawn by those legs; he certainly wouldn't lose to a re subordinate in a contest of leg muscle definition.
It's just that those... uh, pants? He really couldn't take his eyes off them.
It was purely an appreciation of strength and beauty!
Ryan Kingdom was the land of the knights.
Although the martial virtues of this land of knights had declined compared to centuries past, the people here still valued martial prowess.
Even Ges himself.
Although he had squandered the Extraordinary Power in his blood, he still took ti to exercise his muscles for the sake of appearances at banquets.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to wear this suit of armor.
Exactly!
He was rely appreciating an artwork!
Just as Adela had anticipated, when Baron Ges noticed the uniqueness of his attire, his eyes imdiately stuck to his legs and would not move away.
Although that gaze made one's skin crawl, Adela was ready to grit his teeth for the sake of clinging to Lord Demon King's coattails.
"Please follow ."
The group moved toward the direction of the granary.
Different from usual, Baron Ges was unusually quiet this ti, his gaze flitting restlessly, seemingly lost in thought.
Perhaps realizing it was rude to keep staring at soone's legs, he tried to focus on the townsfolk around.
It was noon.
The adventurers were either in the labyrinth or running wild in his forest, with mostly peasants from his lordship left in town.
As far as he could tell, these bumpkins had prepared quite well for winter; they even had ti to sit by the roadside cracking pine nuts.
Baron Ges couldn't help calculating in his mind whether he could raise the rent next year...
However, more than the rent, he was actually more interested in Adela's legs... pah! To be exact, the pants on those legs.
Even as he thought about the rent, his gaze uncontrollably drifted to the pristine white color of the fabric.
Ges suddenly realized that he really needed this thing.
Next month, for the Holy Celebration, the Duke's eldest son planned to host a grand banquet in Thunder City, inviting all nobility from barons upwards in the entire duchy!
So said it was laying the groundwork for the eldest son to inherit the duke's position.
If that was the case, he couldn't miss this golden opportunity!
Compared to his land, which couldn't be flaunted at the banquet, a fashionable pair of pants was obviously more important for him at this mont.
He dared to bet.
Wearing them at the banquet, he would definitely beco the most dazzling presence there!
He might even gain favor with the future duke!
As a baron in an era of peace, this was his only chance to stand out.
Noticing that the baron's mind was elsewhere, Adela guessed the ti was ripe, so he controlled his horse's pace, drawing alongside the baron.
