CHAPTER XXVII
Jessica patted the boy on the shoulder, grabbed the top of his head with her left hand, and dragged his jaw with her right hand.
"Remember to give ...... when you get to the River Styx"
"Wait!Please, wait!" The girl who had just been kicked to the ground suddenly rushed from the side, and the thin figure pounced on it like a small beast, and two thin arms like firewood wrapped around Jessica's right arm.
"Please spare him this time!" said the girl's thin little face, full of panic, as if the sky was about to fall.
Jessica's movements stopped, and her whole body froze in place, and she even let go of her hand.
The boy who had escaped for his life fell to the ground with a weak leg, and did not even have the courage to look back, and rushed into the crowd on his knees and cries, but the children avoided him as if he were hiding from the plague, and wherever he went, he had a large vacancy, and he could not hide himself in any way.
"No...... Don't move, I command you not to move! Untouchables! Ahhh
"Let go of me!" Jessica kept her original position, but there was a bit of anger in her voice.
"I ...... I'll let go immediately, please don't kill him!" the little girl let go of her hand in a panic, and stood there with her head bowed, not daring to move.
"Get out!"
"Huh?" The little girl, who had been waiting for death with her eyes closed, raised her head in surprise and looked at the aristocratic lady who was still in a bent posture.
"Get out of here!"
This is...... Is this what does this mean to let me go? The thin little face was full of joy, and the little girl quickly wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve, bowed gratefully, and quickly turned around and ran away.
However, before she could run a few steps, she felt her collar suddenly tighten, and the clothes on the back of her neck were grabbed. She looked back in a panic to find the long-legged aristocratic lady looking at her with an angry expression.
"You, didn't you let me go?"
Jessica didn't reply, she lifted the dry little girl up, and found that although she was neatly dressed, she didn't seem to eat very well, and weighed only about the same as a bag of wheat flour.
He put the dancing little girl back on the ground and spun her skinny body in a circle, so that she was facing him. Look at the slightly ill-fitting skirt and the gray footprints on the chest. Jessica frowned dissatisfiedly and asked with a cold face, "He obviously kicked you, why did you save him?"
The little girl was taken aback, she even thought that the eldest lady was going to kill her, but she didn't expect to just ask a question.
Her little hands tightened nervously at the corners of her skirt. "Because...... Because my surname is Anderson too. ”
"That's not right!" Jessica shook her head coldly, reaching for the sword hanging from her waist.
The little girl's face suddenly turned pale, and she staggered back half a step. "Because I'm his distant cousin, and my mother is a cook in his house, my mother and I would ...... if I had seen him die."
Jessica glanced at her little hand that was tearing at the corner of her skirt, shook her head again, and slowly drew her long sword.
"I ...... I'm her sister, but my mom is really a father...... It's the marquis's cook, I didn't mean to deceive you, but he said that I was not worthy of being his sister, and I was not allowed to talk about it, otherwise the marquis would drive my mother out into the street and grab lamp oil with those people......"
Jessica's eyes narrowed, but she still didn't say anything, just pursed the corners of her mouth, ignoring the chattering girl, and instead looked up to find the boy's location.
After seeing the figure trying to burrow into the pile, she stepped over with her long sword.
"Don't! Please, don't kill him!"
The familiar stiffness spread throughout her body, and Jessica was once again wrapped around her thighs, and the arm she raised her sword suddenly froze in midair.
"You let go!"
"I ...... I'll let go, please don't kill him. ”
"If you're afraid of him, you're not afraid of me?"
"I ...... I'll let him go, please, don't kill him. ”
There was a tingling sensation on her body, and Jessica's face couldn't help but show anger.
"If you're in my way of killing him, I'll kill you first, and I'm ...... you and you"
When she said this, the corners of her mouth twitched and she didn't continue, but instead scolded angrily: "Are you stupid? He can't protect himself now, how can he drive your mother to the street to drink lamp oil?"
"Like...... It seems like this......"
"Then you let go!"
"I ...... I don't dare to let ......"
"You!" Jessica trembled with anger, killing people well, but was completely stirred up by this stupid girl. Seeing that she was unwilling to let go, Jessica, who was accustomed to cold words, actually took a deep breath and coaxed softly:
"You let go, you step back a little, I won't kill him. ”
“......”
"Listen to me, let go of your hand and stand back, I just want to teach him a lesson. ”
"......" The little girl silently let go of her hand and took a few steps back.
She's just not smart, and she's not really an idiot, if this eldest lady is determined to kill Rhodes, she will definitely not be able to stop her, and now such a big man is willing to talk to herself, then she should be able to talk...... Right?
Just after she retreated two or three meters, Jessica's figure immediately disappeared in place, and instead appeared behind the trembling Rhodes Anderson.
Jessica's right hand holding the sword tightened, and finally gritted her teeth to tie the sword back to her waist, unhooked the hardwood scabbard with her backhand, and slammed it fiercely on Rhodes's cheeks, shattering half of his teeth with a sheath.
"This is the last time!
Rhodes covered his swollen cheeks and nodded repeatedly, and in his wincing gaze, there were seven points of fear, two points of anger, and one point of hidden resentment.
Of course, all of this could not escape Jessica's eyes, but she didn't take it seriously at all.
There is no need to worry about this kind of stupidity, his father who was a marquis didn't think to take him with him when he ran away, just such a person who has no family, no strength, and no brains, and he is not even qualified to be cut down by her.
After sneering disdainfully, Jessica turned to leave.
At this time, the little girl in the white dress ran over quickly, wanting to check Rhodes' injuries, but when she ran to Rhodes' side, she was pushed to the ground by Rhodes, who was covering her face and screaming.
"Don't touch me with your open hand......!"
The nightmarish figure reappeared behind him, the iron-plated riding boots shattering the other half of his teeth with precision, and Rhodes didn't even have time to snort before he rolled his eyes and fainted in complete pain.
"......Cousin Rhodes! Are you dead? You can't die!" The stupid girl screamed, getting up to see if he was still alive, but was grabbed by the back of the neck again.
With a black face and a struggling little girl, Jessica walked back into the center of the square and smashed the gong into a big hole with one punch.
"Amelian!"
"The subordinates are here. A knight in black armor emerged from the shadows and knelt on one knee in a knightly salute.
Jessica pulled a piece of parchment from her bosom and threw it over. "You tell me the rest! Tell them what to do in the future! A backhand punch knocked out the little girl who was still struggling, and she turned to look at the people in the square.
"The Farrell family is the new aristocracy, and I hate the old aristocracy the most, so I don't look at the bloodline! I don't look at the background! I don't look at the men and women! Even if you are a pariah, as long as you are strong enough, I will give you the opportunity to climb up!
Jessica narrowed her eyes and scanned the shivering crowd.
"Farrell's family, don't raise waste!"
