Noble Emblem

A young Brave walked out of his village, gathered companions to his side, defeated the Great Demon King, became famous, then came back with beauties in hand! This was a legend that appears in the world of Seyrol every 200 years! Our protagonist, however, isn’t a Brave. Even so, for over a thousand years his figure has loomed throughout its history. Unwittingly, the name of the Red Priest began to resound throughout the world. Red Priest’s legend included extraordinary sword techniques and magic, erudite knowledge, and an almost prophetic ability to lead young Braves toward the proper path. People of the world think of him as a descendent of the ancient Golden Race which led to his omnipotence. In essence, however, this was just the characteristics of the profession known as ‘Noble’. A word from the fabulousest translator/editor on Earth which is me I took upon this translation/editing project for the same reason I started translating my first Chinese novel. There are just too many big ass gems buried in a deep cesspool. I've long guessed that Qidian stopped introducing good Chinese novels on this platform in order to give some breathing room for English (and other) originals, but I don't agree with such approach. From a reader's standpoint, it is such a shame that we don't even know how many brilliant works we are missing because of the language barrier. To be honest, I'm mainly copypasting from the site called Novelhi. It is a really good resource and their machine translation is the best I've seen so far, and they also translate up to the latest available chapter. Still, they have several issues. For some reason they always miss the last paragraph which make you can missout on a potentially very important information related to a story, and they also have parts where just a couple of words gets repeated for a whole paragraph and it actually replaces the original text. They also translate an ad together with a chapter which is immersion breaking. I'll be correcting the inherent sins of such MTL with manual editing and translation and I will also polish some rough edges so that the readers will have as much seemless reading experience as possible. You will definitely have a better time reading this than me for sure

Frey's arrival

"I've never seen it before, which is why I'm even more apprehensive." Beta flicked his whip. "Even if it's love at first sight, it's rare for a woman to give herself to a stranger. Even if there is, she's an idiot. But I don't think an idiot can become a professional, much less a Master. "

Kail was shocked. "She's a Master-level professional? I really couldn't tell! "

Alice also covered her mouth. At the party, her mind had been on Kail, and she didn't look at anyone else at all.

Emma, on the other hand, could sense Frey's strength because she was quite strong herself. But what really made her feel pressured wasn't how strong Frey was, but something else.

For example, Emma felt that she would never be able to express her love to a man in front of so many people.

The three of them each had their own thoughts. Kail increasingly felt that he wasn't experienced enough. If Frey was an enemy and he underestimated her, the consequences … would be unthinkable.

Alice, on the other hand, felt that she was lucky this time. The young mayor had taken a fancy to Beta. What if she had taken a fancy to Kail? What would she do? Barbara alone was enough to give her a headache.

The atmosphere in the workshop gradually quieted down. Back at the hotel, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.

Emma didn't sleep. She sat in front of the window, leaning sideways on the table in the moonlight. The cold wooden table made her feel extremely comfortable, but she wasn't in a good mood.

Who exactly was Beta? This thought kept circling in her head. If the young mayor named Frey hadn't made a declaration today, Emma wouldn't have known that Beta's surname was "Lyon."

The more you wanted to get close to someone, the more you wanted to know everything about them. But the problem was that that person had almost no desires, and most importantly, he seemed to be able to resist beauty. No matter how Luv Ma thought about it, her greatest strength was none other than her outstanding appearance.

But it was useless in front of that person.

What should I do! Emma sighed deeply.

As the person involved, Beta was making magic scrolls across from Emma's room. He wasn't going to sleep tonight. He didn't want to be pulled into the dream space by some woman and do some strange things.

Although, in general, it was the man who took advantage of the situation, and the City Lord's wife touched it. It felt so good, but she was someone else's wife. The fusion of the soul was more addictive than the flesh. If this continued, Liang Lidong was afraid that the City Lord's wife would abandon her husband and daughter and crazily pester him.

This is not a good thing. Although he wasn't the one who took the initiative to destroy other people's families, it was still related to him.

So, he spent the whole night making magic scrolls.

After dawn the next day, he breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was said that one or two nights less sleep would not affect a professional, he guessed that the castellan's wife had already woken up, so he went back to bed for a while.

As a result, Kail and Emma came to visit him one after another. They thought that Beta was sick.

Alice even went outside to collect some herbs. As a half-elf, she had some attainments in herbology. This was a racial talent that ordinary people couldn't be envious of.

The three interrupted Beta's morning rest plan one after another. He had to get up, eat breakfast, and was about to go out to inquire about Frey when three nobles came outside the door.

There were a lot of wooden boxes in the three carriages. Several strong men carried the wooden boxes and placed them in front of Liang Lidong. One of the young nobles said with a "you understand" expression, "Sir Beta, this is a little something from us. I hope you can remember the promise you made last night."

Liang Lidong nodded and smiled. "Of course."

Both sides understood. The three nobles left happily, and Beta was also quite happy. They brought down a total of thirteen wooden boxes. In each wooden box, there were at least two hundred gold coins. In other words, the nobles of Blue Harbor pooled more than two thousand gold coins as a thank you gift. To keep Beta away from the young City Lord.

Beta was more than happy to see such a deal happen.

"More than two thousand gold coins …" Alice sighed, "My family's net tax for about ten years is about this number."

Kail was a little puzzled, "Aren't the nobles very xenophobic and fierce? They can do anything for their own interests. If they can marry the City Lord, it will be a great benefit. Why didn't they use tricks to deal with us, but gave us money and let us leave? "

"It's a matter of strength." Beta laughed, "If I was alone, they would definitely find ways to deal with me, but we are a small team … Although Emma didn't say her identity, I think many people already know in secret. There are not many half-elves active in the human world, so Alice's identity is easy to guess. As for me … they think that a person who can be favored by Frey is certainly not weak. They have their own considerations, so they try to solve the problem in a friendly way."

"One aristocrat can't come up with so much money, but it's easy for ten or a hundred aristocrats to come up with two thousand gold coins." Beta waved his hand and more than ten boxes were put into his space backpack, "To some extent, the nobles of Blue Harbor are very xenophobic and united. They think that the young City Lord of Blue Harbor should marry the local nobles and digest the benefits internally. Unfortunately, they don't have the ability. That Frey is not easy to deal with."

Kail took a breath, "Teacher, what do you mean?"

"Momentum!" Beta laughed, "The female City Lord is a Great Swordsman … a Great Swordsman in her teens, and she is even a Master! Except for a few people who can see her strength, most people are in the dark. Kail, do you remember when we first met, I told you about Great Swordsman? "

"Great Swordsman is a powerful profession that fights through mountains of corpses and seas of blood." Kail replied.

"Yes!" Liang Lidong nodded, then he looked in the direction of the castle, "I investigated a little about Frey yesterday. Almost everyone thinks that she is a weak girl who has never left Blue Harbor. Don't you think it's strange? How can such a girl become a Great Swordsman? Even if she is talented, it's impossible to comprehend things like momentum and killing intent out of thin air. "

"So, I think she is a lioness in sheep's clothing, but there are leopards and wolves who think she is a sheep. Hehe, I dare not accept such a girl's confession of love to me. It would be strange if there is no inside story. "

Kail sighed, "Teacher, you are too rational. The beautiful young City Lord publicly confessed her love to the Red Priest. If you agreed, it would be such a beautiful rumor."

"Then after a while, the Red Priest would die for no reason. I don't want such an ending." Liang Lidong clapped his hands, "Okay, everyone get ready. We are leaving for Cambay Island in the afternoon. Finally, bring some anti-vomiting medicine. The sea is different from the land."

All three of them responded, but Kail and Alice didn't care. Only Emma listened.

In the afternoon, the strong man who was responsible for secretly taking them out to sea came over, but this time he was followed by a person … the young City Lord Frey.

The girl looked at the four of them with a smile, then said, "Intending to ignore the ban and go out to sea, and then taking bribes from nobles. Your Excellency Knight King, I heard that there are more than two thousand gold coins. You are really amazing."

Liang Lidong also laughed, "First, we are in the hotel now, not out to sea. Second, you said that I took bribes from nobles, please show me the evidence! More than two thousand gold coins, there are more than a dozen boxes. I can't hide it. If the City Lord doesn't believe me, you can search around. "

Seeing that Liang Lidong was lying so calmly, Kail and the other two were impressed.

Frey brushed her long hair with her right hand and smiled with some charm, "As far as I know, someone has special spatial abilities?"

Liang Lidong turned his head and asked, "Hey, Kail, is that you?"

Kail looked depressed, while Emma and Alice covered their mouths and laughed.

Frey couldn't do anything about such a thick-skinned person. She sighed helplessly and said, "I will allow you to go out to sea later, but I also have a condition. I want to go with you."

"Why?" Liang Lidong asked curiously.

"Can I be the supervisor?" Frey said, "This is my territory, no matter what. You are going out to sea in violation of the ban. As the real manager of this place, can't I go and take a look?"

Liang Lidong thought for a while and then said, "Okay, City Lord, we are more than happy to have you go with us. But I want to say something first."

"Please say it."

Seeing that Liang Lidong agreed, Frey smiled happily. Emma saw her expression and frowned.

"We are going on an adventure this time. I heard that there are treasures on Cambay Island, so we want to go there and make a fortune." Liang Lidong said leisurely, "If City Lord comes with us, according to the rules of the Mercenary Association, we have to pay you a 'companion fee'. So I want to know, how much do you need, City Lord?"

Kail and the other two knew that Liang Lidong was lying to scare them, so they cooperated and pretended to be unhappy that their wealth was being divided.

Frey waved her hand. "No, no, no. Actually, I want to go out with you to broaden my horizons. It's already pretty good that you don't charge me a companion fee."

Liang Lidong had a hypocritical smile on his face, "Sir City Lord is indeed sensible. Since that's the case, we welcome City Lord to travel with us. After all, you are also a powerful force!"

"Huh?" Frey looked surprised. "How did you know that I am a professional?"

Liang Lidong smiled without saying a word.

Frey sighed, her chest rippling exaggeratedly. "So you already knew that I was a professional. You made me pretend to be a weak girl. How boring. That's right, I am a professional, a Master-level warrior. I will definitely not be a burden to you. "

"Warrior?" Kail asked doubtfully.

"Yes, a warrior. Don't look at me like this. I am someone who uses a two-handed greatsword. "Frey said proudly.

Kail was not stupid. He said 'oh' and did not say anything else.

Emma kept staring at Fulei's chest. As a flat-chested girl, she had a strong misgivings towards this part of the body.
