Chapter 36: Mercy

Since it was planned that this team would also be tasked with escorting Vivien and Cook into the interior of the mountain range, the addition of Anderson, a five-star swordsman, was particularly important.

Facing the silent Anderson, Carlos couldn't help but think of the aristocratic rhetoric that his father Maury had instilled in him since he was a child, and broke the brief silence with a childish voice.

"If you help me with this mission, not only will you get what I promised, but you may also be able to return to the Sword Pavilion, Anderson. ”

"Why?"

"Because after this incident, you will be given a new errand to escort a dwarven Knight of Light from afar to the Holy See, which is enough to explain your guilt for being framed and abandoned in the city of Fine Forest. ”

Anderson was a little moved, escorting an alien knight of the Holy See of Light, and that was indeed a reasonable reason.

He frowned slightly, and said, "You don't need to deal with me with your nobles' gadgets, in fact, I don't care so much about the identity of the Sword Pavilion, that's in the past, but if you really have a dwarven light knight who needs me to escort him to the Holy See, I am willing to serve." ”

Carlos did not curse Anderson's hypocrisy, on the contrary, the other party's performance was actually more real.

Negotiating terms with such a person is more worthy of trust than playing with intrigues.

With the biggest candidate in place, Carlos turned to look at the three hunter brothers who were still hesitating.

Anderson suddenly said, "Is it to pity them by letting them participate in this mission?"

Anderson asked playfully, the longer he spent with the heir of the Stevenson family, the more he could feel the difference of this child, his intelligence was outstanding, his control of people's hearts seemed to be innate, although he was still immature in his actions, but it could be seen that he still maintained a good heart.

Anderson walked to the railing near the next prison, looked at the puzzled three hunters, and said: "Then have mercy, a nobleman should do more good deeds while he has not been wiped out by this world, since you chose to hurt them before, and now it is too late to make amends, I am just curious, did your servant deliberately not plunge the dagger into his heart that day, or was it just a mistake?"

Carlos looked at the short man with the wound on his abdomen wrapped in gauze, his thin and shabby clothes, his thin limbs, and his whole emaciated face, which was yellowed by excessive weakness, was slightly confused.

For such a person, for an assassin-turned-Uncle Grant, it doesn't even have to be very difficult to stab him in the vital point.

Of course, it's easy to deliberately keep the dagger out of his vital point.

Carlos turned his head to look at Grant's expressionless face, which was slightly wooden.

Suddenly I felt that no one in this world was stupid.

He asked the cell boss to find the key, opened the two prison doors, came to the three hunters, crouched down, groped for a handful of silver coins, and gave them to the frightened fat man among them.

"This time, I'll pay for it first, and add one more qualification for the apprentice knight. ”

The qualifications of the two trainee knights?Conrad's hand holding the silver coin was almost shaking, as for why the noble young master in front of him didn't just give the reward of the three trainee knights, he didn't think about it at all, and he didn't dare to think about it.

The big man Soli gasped for breath and suddenly fell to his knees and kowtowed heavily to Carlos.

"Little master, we have taken this task. Soli said firmly, banging his head.

For hunters who have not received any education, it may be the only chance of a lifetime to become a person with status.

Anderson, who also came from a humble background, could understand the big man's choked up mood at the moment.

All things considered, Carlos would be able to leave and cause a huge shock as long as he put up a notice in the town.

Those seemingly vicious bounty hunters will step through the threshold of the Stevenson family at the first time and ask to take on this mission.

In this remote wilderness town, even the strongest and most experienced bounty hunters can't resist the temptation to become a knight.

It's not about money, it's about the great sense of glory that comes with being a knight.

Carlos was glad things were arranged. He has always been a dislike of these trivial things, although he will face them more and more in the future.

Grant accompanied him out of the dimly lit cell.

Ride the steam elevator back to the surface.

She looked past the miners who were sitting on the ground eating in a variety of lunch boxes, and saw the figure of the dwarf Julio, the overseer of the mine, standing in the middle of a group of squatting humans, he was actually very tall.

Or maybe it's just a matter of identity.

No matter how strange you look, how short you are, when everyone else thinks you are a head lower, you are the tallest and most burly of the group.

"Yes, Mr. Julio. ”

Carlos reached out and gestured to the dwarven overseer.

Hearing this, Julio the dwarf trotted over and bowed in thanks.

"Yo, young master, are you done? Now that you're done, why don't you let the kitchen in the mine cook two small dishes?"

Carlos smiled and waved his hand, put his hand on Julio's arm and patted it affectionately.

Treat the heroes of the Stevenson family and express enough affection.

"Don't bother, Mr. Julio, my father is still waiting for me to return. I want your help to bring some food to the people in Prison No. 2 and No. 3, and Uncle Grant will send a carriage to pick them up in two days, and you will prepare some dry food for them by the way. ”

Julio nodded in agreement, watching Carlos leave the path made by a group of miners and disappear into the crowd.

What a handsome, confident and approachable young master.

Julio sighed, then slapped his thigh and muttered loudly to the miners, "Reba...... Go and get a few more meals in the kitchen, send them to the underground prison, and bring the ale beer that the labor and management have soaked in the spring water. ”

After speaking, the old overseer grinned and turned to look at the northeast sky, if the master of the family also took down the fine forest city, how big should this mine be in the future!

"Char is ready?" Carlos said as he stepped out of the mine and got into his carriage to Mav. Grant.

"I think so, the letter that came early this morning said that it was going to leave in the evening. ”

Carlos had already been prepared for the news that Char was going to join the Bounty Hunter team and leave, but he suddenly felt that the departure of this childhood friend was still a bit rushed.

He was silent for a moment before he said, "It's okay." Let's go back to my father for dinner, go back to the basement to get a bottle of brandy, and make an appointment to see him off at the bar in the evening. Hey, this place in Yanjing Town is really boring, and the outside world should be more exciting. ”

Grant drove the carriage and didn't answer in a funny way, and there was one less friend of the little master in the small town of Yanjing.
