Four days earlier, Luke and another man had set out from Qiandu to follow the instructions to a village in the kingdom of Remirabel. The operation was secret, no questions should be raised, and no contact could be made with an unrelated third person in the middle of the operation.

It's just that on the way out, Luke found himself for the first time that he would be so hated by others.

The companion who traveled with him to the kingdom of Remirabel only knew his name and acquaintance, but he was criticized for his incompleteness along the way. A young man with dark blond hair, who must have looked about the same age as Bridge, was named Pamont Inhill. When he was introduced to his name, he said that he was also a knight.

"What the hell is going on with you?"

At the end of the day, after a brief contact.

Pamont frowned deeply, "It's just a stone that can be seen everywhere on the side of the road, why did you arrange for you to act with me? You don't have any idea of your own, you don't have any questions about this mission?"

"That's enough, I'm going to come with someone like this to a terrible country like Remy Rabel!"

"The air, the land, and the people here!"

Moreover, they also encountered a battle, and Luke was almost pulled in.

It was a carriage ride to the town, when a few fierce men suddenly jumped out of a grove.

The men were armed and demanded that they keep all their money.

The coachman was too frightened to move, and when Luke and Pamont left the carriage and walked towards the bandits, Luke accidentally tripped over a stone on the ground and fell forward. Pamont walked behind him and immediately yelled.

"You guy, I've never seen such an inferior person!"

Bypassing Luke, Pamont drew his sword and charged directly at the bandits, who fell to the ground in less than five minutes.

Pamont turned around and saw Luke rubbing his feet.

"It's really bad today, I actually met a robber in such a rural place, and I actually had the courage to fight my master's idea!"

Pamont spat on the ground and reproached Luke, "The worst of all, it's not these, it's people like you. I don't see any strength at all, how the hell did you get into the Knights? It's like painting a landscape, you're just an ordinary stone on the road, no wonder your name is Luke!"

"Tell me clearly! What the hell are you here for, to be a drag on others? Do you think you're embarrassed? A stone! I've never seen a knight who trips over a stone!"

Seeing that Pamont became more and more angry, Luke was silent and did not speak, but returned to the carriage.

For the next few days, the same reproach never stopped, and Luke listened silently.

"Coward!"

"Stones by the side of the road!"

"Just change your name to Autism Knight!"

"How the hell did you grow up!"

……

Then, Luke and Pamont finally arrive in the village.

And met each other.

Similarly, in that alley, strange footsteps appeared, and Xiao Tie's first reaction was a strange passer-by, and he turned back in surprise. But he saw Luke, and the darkly blonde young man beside Luke.

"It's you...... Won't it......"

Xiao Tie opened his mouth, almost thinking it was an illusion.

"Long time no see, Arnold. ”

Inhil...... Your Excellency...... I'm not dreaming...... Why are you here? I remember you weren't in Ciudad Morta? Why are you here?"

Xiao Tie was puzzled and excited by the presence of Pamont Inhill.

"Acquaintance?"

"You don't know anything, why are you with Lord Inhill?"

"Leigh, you don't have to be so polite, we're here to match your actions. But now is not the time to catch up. What to do with this guy? Also, you are dressed like this, simply, I really want your sister to see it, hahahahaha!!" Finally, halfway through the sentence, I couldn't help but laugh.

"It's really not the time to catch up, and this dress is complicated to say. ”

Xiao Tie showed a helpless expression, but he was secretly relieved.

They hadn't seen each other for years, and now it seemed that Lord Inhil should have moved on from that. Lord Inhill, and, sister.

"I have an idea, please help me do something. ”

Originally, if they didn't come, they would have to carry out this method alone, and it would be a little more troublesome to do.

An hour later, in a room in a hotel.

"That's what you were thinking?"

Pamont carried Atley to the inn on his back and explained to the innkeeper, who was afraid that he might get into trouble, that Atley was too drunk and paid twice as much to get a room.

When he came to the room, he tied Art with a rope that was difficult to break, and tied his hands and feet, and gagged his mouth with strips of cloth. Even when I woke up, I couldn't speak.

"That's it. ”

"I said, is it necessary to do it to this extent, what is the matter with this task?"

Pamont still didn't understand anything, so he had to ask Xiao Tie.

"We're going to snatch a sword from someone, that's why I'm here. The rest of the details, you'll understand when you get the sword. It's not a glorious solution, and that's all we have to do. ”

When this is over, you can get rid of this troublesome outfit.

Xiao Tie continued: "Next, all you need to do is write a letter and send it to a friend's village, I have already written the letter. Lord Inhill, could you please stay here and keep an eye on this guy. Luke, come with me to Friend's Village. ”

"Hmm. ”

Luke...... Forget it, what I want to tell you is that we make sure to deliver the letter to our friend's village. Xiao Tie looked at Luke in a cautious tone and said.

"It's strange, I don't understand, Leigh, is this Luke really a member of the Knights?" Indic turned his attention to Luke and asked Xiao Tie face to face, "This mission is really mysterious enough, and what kind of origin this person is, I asked him if he didn't say a word, and he was dumb from beginning to end." According to the Knights' recruitment standards, this guy must have been brushed down at the first level, and he can actually become one of you?"

"I don't know, and about this task, it's been arranged, and it's just going to be done. After a pause, Luke continued, "I won't ask." ”

He pulled out a few notes, "You have these too, finish one, and move on to the next one." ”

"You guy...... What the hell is going on...... Forget it, Her Majesty is also mysterious. ”

Because the Council of the Six Nations was approaching, Pamont came to the city of Cyr, came to the palace and was summoned by the prince, was arranged for an errand, and then met the queen, and there was little explanation of what it was, and the content was only a few small notes from His Majesty.

The first note asks them to arrive at the village, and the second note is to wait for Xiao Tie to appear and cooperate with Xiao Tie.

"It's a very, very important task. ”

Xiao Tie, deliberately lowered his voice, he could only say that.

Pamont Inshi earnestly measured the little iron.

A few minutes later.

"Looks like you've really grown in the Knights, Leigh. Inshi smiled, "It's time for you guys to go, it's almost time for this guy to wake up." ”

"Please, Lord Inhil. ”

Xiao Tie nodded at him, and personally handed a note he had written to the other party. Put on that troublesome wig again and walk out of the room with Luke.

Leave the inn and head out of the village.

"You have a good relationship. ”

With Irsi not around, Luke speaks his true thoughts.

"Before he came here, he was always angry. After meeting up with you, his attitude changed. ”

"I can imagine that when I first met him, I was often scolded very badly, and your Excellency had two diametrically opposed attitudes towards men and women, which was like the difference between heaven and earth. At that time, I felt like crying many times. I even thought that if I told my sister these things, it would probably make my sister start to hate Inxi, but in the end, Xiao Tie didn't do it. Because, as a boy, no matter what happens, you must not cry. He had heard that sentence from his sister's mouth, so Xiao Tie endured it.

Thinking back to that time now, Xiao Tie showed a nostalgic expression.

"Speaking of which, you don't know my real name. My real name is Leigh Arnold, and like you, I am a commoner. ”

"I know about civilians, Leigh Arnold, and this is the first time I've heard it. ”

"I never imagined that I would become a member of the Knights, and it was thanks to His Excellency Insy that I was so admired. I received a lot of advice from him, even though he always scolded me very badly. Xiao Tie said this past in a flat tone, "Your Excellency, he is a genius, of course, Brother Qiao Yan is also very powerful, and I also respect Brother Qiao and Brother Yan!" mentioned Qiao and Yan, and his tone became a little excited.

"Your Excellency, he is actually Brother Qiao's younger brother, and he jumped two levels in the academy, so he graduated at the same time as Brother Qiao. ”

When Xiao Tie said this, Luke noticed that his hands were clenched into fists, clenched very tightly.

"They...... It's amazing. ”

When I first met him, Xiao Tie never thought that he could get his guidance, even if he scolded him to death every day, you are looking for death, if I continue like this, if I were you, it would be better to find a stone and crash into it and die immediately. and so on, all kinds of cruel words.

"Brother Qiao's strength is very powerful, compared to Your Excellency...... I didn't say anything bad about Brother Qiao, it's just that Brother Qiao has other advantages in other aspects, so don't tell anyone about these. ”

"Hmm. ”

"I feel sorry for Your Excellency...... He has what it takes to become the head of the Knights, but because of his family......"

"Knights?"

"Your Excellency, he was once a member of the Order, but he has since retired. ”

"I may ask, how did you meet? after all, nobles and commoners. ”

"I have a lot of brothers and sisters, and I have an older sister who almost became my brother-in-law...... Because the Hill family would never allow him to marry a commoner woman...... "Xiao Tie actually told Luke about his family, which surprised Luke a little.

"I don't know what to say. ”

"It's nothing, I've always wanted to find someone to talk to. ”

"The rest of the Order, their identity...... Unlike me, I think only people who are from civilian backgrounds like me can probably understand it somewhat. ”

"I don't know much, I don't know much about complicated things. ”

Xiao Tie looked at Luke, the corners of his mouth extending upwards in an arc, revealing a smile.

"You're really weird. ”

The outliers of the Order, no, among the people, are also an outliers.

It's been a short time since Luke joined in, and Xiao Tie saw that this guy would never fight for anything, and probably didn't even have a goal to live. I don't know if it's because of this, Xiao Tie will be at ease and honestly reveal his inner thoughts, even if he says it all, it won't have any impact on anyone.

"Your Majesty, she seems to like you very much, and it is the first time I have seen her recruit people from other countries, and I hope you will not live up to her expectations of you. Of course, Xiao Tie will not live up to her expectations of herself, he has to work hard to become a person like Your Excellency, Brother Qiao and Brother Yan, that is Xiao Tie's goal.

Luke didn't speak, and continued to follow Xiao Tie, and he didn't know how long he walked, and after thinking for a long time, he suddenly asked a question.

"Actually, I wonder why you don't call that Pamont Inhil the same as the Bridge and Flame in the Knights. ”

This question was asked very abruptly, and Xiao Tie did not react immediately.

"Salutation?"

"Why do you call Bridge and Flame Brother Bridge Brother Flame, your esteemed Pamont Inhill is called Your Excellency. What's the difference in relationships? I don't understand. ”

"You're really surprising ......"

Xiao Tie thought for a moment and replied, "Brother Qiao and Brother Yan...... That's what Shen started to shout, and then he called it that way, and one day everyone got used to shouting and shouting like this, and I shouted it too. To be honest, I didn't mean to criticize Shen, it is said that because of his family relationship, many times, Shenhe is not like the typical aristocratic boy, and he looks as delicate as a girl. If he is not so pampered, the task of pretending to be a girl should be arranged for him to be the most appropriate. ”

God knows, how much Xiao Tie wants to hand over this task to Shen.

"I see, and for this reason. ”

As for the shallow guy, I feel inexplicably annoyed when I think about it.

……

…………

In short, they chatted as they continued to walk towards their friend's village.

A few hours later, they came to the foot of the mountain where their friend's village was located.

"When you reach the top of the mountain, before you enter your friend's village, you can find a bush to hide. After a while, someone will come out of your friend's village, and that person should have the sword of water in his hand, and you should follow him when the time comes, and it is best to find an opportunity to snatch the sword of water from his hand. ”

"Isn't it a meeting change? And isn't there a problem with this plan?"

"It's going to be too much time to do what you say, and we can't afford to put it off any longer. As for the problem?" Xiao Tie thought about the plan again, "I took this kidnapper's letter and ran to my friend's village to tell everyone the news that someone had kidnapped Atley, and exchanged it for the Sword of Water. Take the Sword of Water to the place specified on the letter, and then arrange for them to meet Atley, and naturally release them. ”

"Will things go this way?

Luke thought about it, and it sounded like there were no loopholes.

"I've arranged a place. ”

Xiao Tie continued, "If this matter doesn't go well, I'll find a way to stop Lillian Klin, there are so many children in my friend's village, she shouldn't be too messy, and I still have a good chance of snatching the Sword of Water from her." Then, it's your turn to play. ”

Xiao Tie further explained some details, telling Luke not to come out easily, and to hide well.

Luke still has several strengths.

In the Knights, Xiao Tie had not noticed Luke's breath several times.

"I want you to hide without anyone noticing, and it's best to keep your footsteps in check. ”

If you can get close to it silently, then this guy is definitely a natural assassin.

Your Majesty, she must have discovered Luke's strengths earlier than them, so she specially recruited them.

How Xiao Tie wanted to bring the Water Sword back quickly and report to His Majesty.

******

"Finally here. ”

Neil rubbed his shoulders and rode in the carriage for days and nights, and his whole body was tired and scattered.

When I arrived in town, I found a comfortable hotel to stay in, and came to the restaurant, ordered a table full of food, and replenished my strength for tomorrow's action.

"Tomorrow we can step out of the border of Remirabel and enter the kingdom of Qiandu. Neil, let's get some rest early today. ”

"yes, you should go to bed early tonight, too. ”

The Sword of Light looked at the two men, leisurely spinning behind them.

"This is the first time, Ami thinks it can be remembered!"

"For the first time?"

"For the first time in so many years, Neil and Charlie don't stay in the same room at the hotel!"

"What is there to commemorate here......

Neil rolled his eyes.

Because there are two other people in the team, it becomes a room for Neil and Lance, and a room for Charlie and Joel.

"Then again...... The food here is not cheap, according to your appetite, you have to eat dozens of gold coins for a meal......" Looking at the table full of food, most of it fell into Yo'er's mouth. From the moment she sat down, Joel kept eating and eating. Hearing this, he glanced up at Neil and reached out with a cloth bag.

The cloth bag contained heavy coins, which were poured out with a clatter.

"That's enough. ”

Each one is a glittering gold coin that makes you can't take your eyes off it.

"I'm curious about how much money you have, most of the meals you have can be saved these days!"

"Neil, you can't just ask that kind of question. ”

Compared to the atmosphere in which they got along, Lance looked a little dull.

"Eh, Lance, are you still worried? Ami thinks she's going to be fine. ”

"We're a little worried, but, Lance, it's better not to think about it when you're eating. ”

"That's right, sorry, but I'm worried about you. ”

Lance smiled wryly and picked up his chopsticks.

******

A breeze blew in through the window, and the curtain swayed slightly, and the part of the sunlight that was hidden by the curtain was sometimes lengthened and sometimes shortened with the swing. The tired old man sitting on the bench was dozing off and woke up because of the sound outside.

Someone approached this way, and the sound of footsteps approached.

Then, the door was opened, and the sound of footsteps accompanied by the enticing aroma of food wafted in.

"Good morning, meow, we bought breakfast, is there any movement in the cage?

"Morning, what's going on? Pasta...... Well, it's still like that. ”

"Hey, don't suddenly squeeze in so many people, there's no place to stand. ”

"yes, sorry meow!"

Hima walked around the corner and looked at the magic cage, but didn't see anything.

"Meow, what a disappointed meow......" was about to sigh, when he suddenly noticed that the door of the magic cage was not closed.

"What meow?"
