Chapter 261: Humiliation

~7 min read 1,225 words

Longfang City-State, Jin Sui Hotel.

Little Konrad sat quietly in his room, staring at the seed in his hand in a daze.

The seed emitted a hazy green light, full of vitality! The fine gold patterns on it showed the extraordinary nature of this seed!

But... what's the use!

Mr. Buluokesi had clearly rejected his apprentice qualification, and he could never become a powerful 【Druid】 again.

However, little Konrad couldn't feel much sadness, at least not as uncomfortable as his old servant Kalomu. The scene of Mr. Buluokesi turning into a weasel and being chased and hacked by Miss Vivian appeared in his mind from time to time.

【Druid】 wouldn't be so weak, Big Brother Nie is very strong!

If... if he really became Lord Buluokesi's apprentice... wouldn't that be very shameful?

The young master who didn't know the world was completely different from the old servant who was 'sensible'. 'Powerful' things were always exclusive to big shots. It was very difficult for small people to have an insignificant opportunity, and Lord Buluokesi's apprentice qualification was such an opportunity!

The door was gently pushed open. Old Kalomu saw the young master by the window and sighed again in his heart.

Little Konrad didn't know yet that if he couldn't become a Druid apprentice, then he would be useless to the family, then... his eldest brother who inherited the title...

Sigh!

A Druid apprentice of the Longfang City-State naturally couldn't be a noble of the Rhine Kingdom. The noble is the patriarch and has to lead the family to grow. It won't work to hide in other countries to study every day.

But if the second son of the family couldn't get the Druid apprentice qualification, then it's hard to guarantee that he wouldn't have some wild thoughts.

The sound of opening the door startled little Konrad, who was deep in thought. He turned to see his old servant.

"Grandpa Kalomu! Is something the matter?"

"Young Master, the hotel manager wants to see you! He has already learned that you... you were rejected by Lord Buluokesi!"

"Okay, I understand!" Young Master little Konrad was a bit worried. The hotel manager was the family's big manager in Longfang City. He wouldn't want me to go back to Rhine, right! That would be terrible. I still want to travel everywhere after becoming strong!

Clenching the seed in his hand, little Konrad followed the old servant downstairs with a heavy heart.

The hotel hadn't opened for business yet. Almost all the managers, staff, and servants in the hall were there, all looking at this young master of the Stein family with strange eyes.

Pity, indifference, or gloating, and some were even eager to try!

"Ah! Our hardworking young master is finally awake! Lao Fulanke greets you!"

The hotel manager's yin-yang-strange voice made little Konrad frown slightly, but thinking that he might be sent back soon, little Konrad was in no mood to argue with this guy.

"I heard that Young Master Konrad, you were rejected by Lord Buluokesi? Ah la la, this is really a pity!" The hotel manager sighed with an exaggerated face. "After all, that's a large sum of gold coins!"

Little Konrad kept a cold face and didn't speak, waiting for the other party to say the words of repatriating him.

"Yesterday, the patriarch of our Stein family, the newly appointed noble, has already sent a letter. If the young master fails to gain the appreciation of Lord Buluokesi, then he will lose the opportunity to return to Mingxing City! Young Master Konrad, do you know about this?"

Little Konrad was pleasantly surprised. He didn't consider why his eldest brother knew about it in yesterday's letter when he was rejected only yesterday. He just asked with bright eyes: "Is that so? Big brother said I don't have to go back?"

The old hotel manager nodded with a smile.

"Yes, of course, of course! After all, the noble doesn't need a useless younger brother, right?"

"You..."

Little Konrad was annoyed, and the old servant Kalomu on the side was also filled with righteous indignation.

"Frank, you've gone too far! Are you insulting the bloodline of the Stein family?"

The old hotel manager's face turned pale, and then he glared fiercely at old Kalomu.

"No, of course not! How dare I! I just doubted the ability of Young Master Konrad alone!"

"Alright, stop arguing!" Konrad was in no mood to listen to the two managers arguing. He was a bit unsure now.

Although it was good not to go back, he hadn't become a Druid apprentice now, so what should he do in the future?

However, he didn't have to worry soon. The old hotel manager had already thought about it for him.

"Then Young Master Konrad, we should discuss your debt problem!"

"What? Are you crazy? Where did I get a debt?"

"Oh, sorry! Didn't I explain clearly just now? In order for the young master to become Lord Buluokesi's apprentice, the family spent a large sum of gold coins!"

The old hotel manager used a heavy tone on the three words 'a large sum'.

"If the young master succeeded, then naturally everyone would be happy! Now that you failed, then... this sum of gold coins naturally needs to be repaid by yourself!"

"Lao Fulanke, what are you say..."

Before Old Kalomu could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the hotel manager.

"By the way, the goods in the backyard are ready. Manager Kalomu, please set off as soon as possible. The goods transported back to Rhine this time are all valuable items."

"You..."

Lao Fulanke just waved his hand, and two servants were about to step forward to forcibly drive Old Kalomu to the backyard.

Seeing his most loyal servant about to be driven away, little Konrad was in a mess. He had never experienced such a thing, and a sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart.

These guys who usually flattered him, they... how dare they...

I am the young master of the Stein family!

"Not repaying debts is not something a decent noble should do! Don't you think so? Young Master Konrad!"

"I... I... I have no money!"

"Oh, of course! Of course! The noble had already thought of this! Then, you can work in the shop to pay off the debt. For example... ah, cleaning the back kitchen, this is a good job. After becoming proficient, you can even come out to clean the hall and rooms. I think besides this... the young master wouldn't know how to do other work, right!"

Lao Fulanke felt that his life had reached its peak, humiliating a former noble, watching his expression of incompetent rage! Wow, God! I have to drink two more cups tonight!

"Hmph! You want me to do that lowly work, that's impossible! You can kill me, but you can never force me!"

Lao Fulanke naturally didn't dare to kill a Stein bloodline, but... the young master is really naive. This world has ways far more cruel than killing someone!

"Kill you? Oh, how dare I!" Frank retreated in a panic, his performance was serious. "But I do have the right to declare to the outside world that you are an indecent noble who was kicked out of the Stein family by the noble after not repaying debts!" ===== CHAPTER 262 =====
