Section XVI The Grand Duke of Bernard

Therefore, the target of the assassination is generally not willing to provoke the Ravenhold Alliance, and even if the killer is caught, most of them will avoid trouble and let go. Anyway, I don't have to worry about a killer coming to attack in the future. Therefore, many killers are willing to play for the league, although the league will 'steal' a part of the commission, but the protection of their own life is more important than anything else. Who can guarantee that an assassination will not be captured?

Moreover, the Ravenhold Alliance also has the principle of three non-acceptances, that is: the tasks of important officials of the empire are not accepted, the tasks of level 8 masters and above are not accepted, and the tasks of prestigious nobles are not accepted.

Imperial officials, who are related to the political or economic lifeline of the empire, but some local officials or insignificant officials are not among them, and the Ravenhold alliance does not want to oppose the empire, no matter how strong an organization is, it is impossible to defeat the country.

Fighters above level 8 are already considered to be the top masters in the empire, and the killers who can assassinate masters at this level are almost phoenixes, after all, if they have extraordinary strength, who would be willing to devote themselves to the high-risk industry of killers? Most killers are at level 6-7 strength, and they are very reluctant to level 8 fighters, and the masters may not sell the face of the Ravenhold Alliance. So even though Ravenhold has killers who can threaten level 8 fighters, he will never take on their missions.

Prestigious nobles are generally hereditary nobles, and the involvement is often very large, and if a certain family is annoyed, the Ravenhold Alliance will not have a good time.

The reason why the Ravenhold League survived in the empire was inseparable from his strict system. If you can't afford to mess with your opponent, then don't mess with it!

Harry had all learned about it in the library, and the Ravenhold League had existed for more than 300 years. No assassination target has dared to slaughter the killer of the Ravenhold Alliance, except for the failure in the battle, after learning that the killer is a member of the Ravenhold Alliance, they will let him go. The method of identifying the killer of the Ravenhold Alliance is also very simple, just look to see if the killer has a magic crystal unique to the Ravenhold Alliance on the thumb of his right foot.

Ha used his sword to pick off the shoe of the killer's right foot, and sure enough, there was a magic crystal in his thumb, and this magic crystal implanted in the skin technology was unique to Ravenhold, and the rest of the killer organization could not imitate it. Seeing the magic crystal, Harry depressedly considered a countermeasure.

Killing this person is undoubtedly a ** annoyance for himself, thinking about not guarding against those elusive killers all the time in the future, Harry felt a tingling on his scalp, although he had a 'spirit' divine power warning, but it was not a pleasant thing to be disturbed by people all day long.

Let him go? would represent a compromise with the Ravenhold Union, even if such a compromise would be beneficial to both sides.

After much deliberation, Harry hesitated. He frowned and looked at the killer who was still moaning, and asked with a cold snort, "Then what should I do with you?"

"Your Excellency had better let me go, otherwise our Ravenhold Alliance will never let you go!" The killer was a little nervous, this little magician didn't look like he wanted to let himself go, could it be that he hadn't heard of Ravenhold's name?

"Are you threatening me?" said Harry.

It seemed that the killer had been captured for the first time, and he lacked some experience, and if he begged for mercy or softened his tone, Harry might have let him go, after all, he would have saved himself trouble later. Being threatened like this, wouldn't it show that Harry was afraid of Ravenhold if he was released?

"If you dare to kill me, our alliance will definitely hunt you down to the ends of the earth, and you won't die!" This killer seems to be a little 'lustful', and Ravenhold's killers have always been released after they miss, and this little magician should be no exception!

"Well, I'm going to give you the Ravenhold League a little face, and I'm not going to kill you. Harry smirked.

"Your Excellency really knows the current affairs!" Hearing that the other party would not kill him, the killer breathed a sigh of relief, and his words became a little proud, and he was really afraid of our Ravenhold Alliance.

"Because I have always been a law-abiding citizen, I believe that all evil deeds must be punished by the laws of the Empire. So, I've decided to take you to court!" Harry turned to Kiru and said, "Go and call the guards at the sheriff's office, I'm going to **! Someone is trying to murder the future princess!"

"......" Kiru didn't say anything, and turned around and went to the police station guard as Harry had instructed.

"The princess colt?" the killer had just let go of his heart again, how could this be? How could the Alliance's mission on his behalf make such a big mistake, how could the princess pony be assassinated? He had automatically ignored the word 'future' in Harry's mouth. Even if the alliance really took on such a task, it shouldn't be carried out by an ordinary killer like himself.

Soon the guards of the police station arrived, and Harry came up to him and complained: "The security of this imperial capital is really too problematic, and the future colt was assassinated on the street in broad daylight. Fortunately, the princess didn't come with me today, otherwise you would have taken care of what had happened?"

"Horses?" the captain of the guard clearly didn't understand what was going on.

"It seems that you are a little incompetent as the captain of the guard, and it is no wonder that Her Royal Highness always complains to me that there are often no patrolling guards on the streets of the imperial capital, and that the Imperial military pay is not a handout?" Harry looked indignant.

At this time, someone in the guard whispered in the captain's ear, it was no secret that Kiru and Shanny often worked together, but no one dared to say that Shanny must have taken a fancy to Kiru, but Harry's affirmative tone convinced the guards that something was wrong.

Hearing that the target of the assassination was the princess's colt, the captain of the guard immediately put on a respectful attitude, he still didn't know Harry's identity, but he didn't think it was an ordinary person, and he had to handle the matter carefully. "Is this the person? It's not a small amount of courage, bring me back and torture me to ask who instigated it!"

"Then there is a lot of work, according to his own 'handover', he is a killer of the Ravenhold Alliance, and he actually threatened me that if I didn't let him go, I would be in great trouble! What is the origin of this Ravenhold? How dare you be so arrogant! You must interrogate him well and let him know that the laws of the empire are not decorations!" Harry pretended to be righteous and regent.

"Ravenhold Alliance!?" the captain of the guard immediately made a difficulty, and cursed Harry in his heart. I didn't expect the killer in front of me to be a hot potato.

"Yes, is there something wrong?" Harry looked innocent, turned to Kiru and said, "It seems that this Ravenhold Alliance really has a background, no wonder they dare to be assassinated in the streets of the imperial capital!

Without waiting for Kiru to answer, the captain of the guard hurriedly stopped: "There is no need to bother the princess in this matter, I will handle this matter carefully, and I will definitely give your Excellency a 'delivery'." ”

"Then this person will be 'handed over' to you! Kiru, let's go. Harry left with Kiru, leaving behind the embarrassed guards.

He is a guard captain who does not dare to offend the Ravenhold Alliance, he is not an important person, and Ravenhold's killers will not take into account his identity as the captain of the guard; let go? If Kiru is an ordinary person, he is not afraid, and he will be released, but with the relationship between Kiru and the princess, if the princess asks or the emperor asks, he is afraid that he will not be able to eat and walk around; he is just locked up? I am afraid that the emperor will also commit a crime of dereliction of duty at that time.

After thinking about it, the captain of the guard decided to report the matter to the above. When the director of the police station heard about this, he couldn't make up his mind, so he continued to report the matter.

At this time, Xianni was having lunch with her father and queen mother in the inner hall, when suddenly the 'attendant' guard reported that the prime minister, the Grand Duke of Bernard, asked to see her.

The Grand Duke and Nilander were not outsiders, and although they were still eating, Nilander still asked the 'squire' guards to invite in to talk.

The Grand Duke of Bernard looked 6 or 70 years old, but his hair was already a little 'flowery' gray, and wrinkles stood out on his face, but his 'shrewd' eyes were still bright. Saying that he was Lilith's father, if Harry was here, he would have shouted impossible.

"Xani is there too, and it just so happens to have something to do with you. Grand Duke Bernard said with a smile, it seems that this is not the first time he has disturbed Niland's meal, and even polite words have been saved.

"Uncle Bernard, what's the matter with me?" asked Shannie curiously.

"My Lord Chancellor, what is there so much that you are in a hurry to see me, and it is not even reassuring to have a meal!" said Nilander grumbling.

"Hehehe, it's not a big deal, but I still have to ask Your Majesty to get an idea. Bernard said mysteriously.

This piqued Niland's interest, and he asked urgingly, "You said it had something to do with Shanni, could it be ......?"

"Yes, our pony was assassinated in the street!" said Berner, smiling at Shanny.

"Prospective pony?" Shannie didn't react for a moment, she was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked worriedly, "You're talking about Kiru, and how is he now!"

"Rest assured, he's fine, the assassin has been captured and is now being held in the police station. ”

Xianni breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately her face turned crimson (to be continued, if you want to know what is going on, please log in., mobile phone users log in to ap., chapters more, please log in to 16k literature network to read!). The queen smiled and said, "Last time I asked you if you were interested in that boy, and you said that it was just an ordinary friend." As soon as this Berner came, my little senny was 'exposed'!"

Niland smiled and asked with great interest: "So since the assassin has been caught, why don't you 'hand' this matter over to the police station, what do you need me to do?"

"This assassin is a killer sent by the Ravenhold Alliance. Bernard said slowly.

"Ravenhold?" said Nilander angrily, "They even dare to assassinate someone that Sunny has a crush on!

"I think they probably don't know about this matter yet, otherwise they would not dare to take on this task! But this time the old minister came to ask Your Majesty, this is an opportunity, I don't know ...... Your Majesty."

"What do you mean......"

"The Ravenhold Alliance has existed for hundreds of years as the Empire's largest killer organization. Successive empire rulers have tried to get rid of it, but they have not been able to do so because they are deeply hidden and well-organized. Through the captured killers this time, maybe we can 'touch' the melons along the vine, find out the base camp of the Ravenhold Alliance, and destroy them in one fell swoop!" Harry's capture of an Assassin made Berna's heart move a little.
