Act 63: Awakening
“...... Wake up, wake up. ”
Edlandall struggled to open his eyes, only to find himself in a large soft bed.
On the unrecognizable ceiling, the scenery of the creation of the goddess is depicted, solemn and solemn.
The futon was very light, and Irandall felt very comfortable in the bed.
"Hmm, let me sleep a little longer......"
She felt her eyelids sink and her eyes a little dilated, and finally tried to focus on the person who was shaking her beside her.
"Hey, you're it?"
The woman opposite, Irandall obviously didn't know, the other party was wearing a black and white old-fashioned maid outfit, about twenty years old, and her simple face was still a little freckled, looking like a maid who served in the aristocratic family everywhere.
"Miss Randall, you must be asleep, I'm Mina. ”
The maid seemed to be accustomed to the appearance of Randall, and said helplessly.
"It's already nine o'clock, and the lord asked me to wake you up and say that the other party has arrived. ”
"Uh, Mina......"
Irandall was still in a state of some confusion, but she soon remembered.
The maid in front of her is indeed called Mina, who was brought back by her father from an orphanage ten years ago, and has been with her for ten years as a maid who takes care of herself.
Looking around, memories gradually revived.
She is the daughter of the Scarlett family, she is only sixteen years old this year, and because of her father's doting, she has always kept all suitors out of the house, and even many noble children have not been able to see Irandall.
Her father, Viscount Scarlett, had been running the land for many years, and had already had a high reputation, and was a good lord praised by the people.
It's just that about a month ago, when Irandall went out to play anonymously, he happened to encounter someone who was bullying others, and Miss Scarlett, who had a sense of justice, took action directly and taught the other party a hard lesson.
Originally, this was just a small episode, but I didn't expect that the bully guy turned out to be the eldest son of the Grand Duke Brigitte, and he would inherit the nobility of a province in the future.
And what's even more troublesome is that because of Randall's direct action, the other party actually recognized her identity, and a few days ago, a letter was sent, in addition to asking Viscount Scarlett to apologize publicly, he even wanted Randall to marry that gentleman.
Although Baron Scarlett was able to refuse those who were engaged, the Grand Duke of Brigitte was in power and could not guarantee that he would not directly find a way to frame the Scarlett family, and at that time, Elandall might face an even more miserable situation.
As for today, it was the guy who came to the door in person, and it seemed that he wanted an answer from Viscount Scarlett before he gave up.
After a little dressing up, Irandall looked at himself in the mirror and felt a little unreal.
With long silver hair, red eyes, delicate face, and a slender and soft body wrapped in exquisite dresses, anyone who looks at it will be amazed by its beauty.
But Irandall always felt that something seemed wrong.
Frowning slightly, she followed Mina down the stairs to the reception room.
On the side of the reception room, sat the light-gray-haired Viscount Scarlett, this middle-aged man looked quite sophisticated, he had the fortitude of a soldier who had experienced the war, and his face was serious at the moment, which filled the entire reception room with a solemn atmosphere.
But on the other side of the room, there was a guy who didn't care, but was judging in front of the famous paintings on the walls, looking quite relaxed.
This is exactly what Irandall had taught before, named Griffin Brigitte.
Elandall noticed that there was a man standing behind the griffin, who seemed to be his bodyguard, with a sword at his waist and large rough hands pinned behind him, looking menacing.
"Are you coming? ”
Viscount Scarlett raised an eyebrow when he saw Irandall.
"Hehe, you're finally here. ”
Turning his head, Griffin grinned and sat down on the couch as well, facing Viscount Scarlett.
"Then let's talk about what is suitable for a wedding. ”
His tone of voice was taken for granted, which made Viscount Scarlet's face a little ugly.
"Your Excellency Griffin, I don't seem to have promised you about this, I apologize I can make a public statement, I want other compensation, I can also try to provide it, but this marriage, I'm afraid I can't agree. ”
"Lord Viscount, I won't say those polite words to you, do you know Viscount Lacis?"
Griffin said that Viscount Lasis was originally a nobleman like Viscount Scarlett, but because he offended Archduke Brigitte, he was directly murdered and accused of rebellion, all the men in the family were beheaded, and the women were arrested and put in a noble prison, called imprisonment, in fact, they became semi-public prostitutes to please other nobles, and the youngest daughter of the Lasis family was only twelve years old.
"What do you mean?"
Viscount Scarlett frowned and clenched his fists slightly, while at the same time, the person behind Griffin also took a step forward, exuding a strong battle intent all over his body.
"What I mean is that the Scarlett family should be smarter, and give this woman over obediently, and maybe I'll be able to send you back when I'm tired of having fun. ”
Griffin smiled wickedly, licking his eyes up and down, licking Randall, causing her to feel a chill.
"Don't take an inch, Griffin, and don't think you can do whatever you want with your father's name. ”
Viscount Scarlet said angrily, but the guard in front of him was obviously very strong, even if he found a master in the entire mansion, he was afraid that it would be difficult to deal with.
"I'm sorry, the people of the Brigitte family can do whatever they want, since you can't bear it, Lord Viscount, then I can only take it myself. ”
Griffin winked, and the bodyguards beside him immediately struck out and headed for Elandall.
For a moment, Irandall felt that he was locked by a beast of prey, unable to move at all, and Viscount Scarlet leaped forward, blocking Irandall at the critical moment.
"Hmm-"
Clutching his obviously broken arm, Viscount Scarlet wailed in pain.
The guards outside heard the news, and pointed their swords at the bodyguard.
"Haven't you heard of the name of Dawn Excalibur?"
The bodyguard said, pulled out his long sword, and a cold breath locked on several guards, and then, between the lightning and thunder, those guards had already dropped their weapons, covering their bleeding wrists, and obviously broke their tendons.
"It's the Dawn Excalibur ......"
Viscount Scarlet protected Irandall behind him and said in surprise.
Dawn Sword Lehman, a famous swordsman in the Northland, is invincible with a fast sword, but he didn't expect to be absorbed into Brigitte's house and become Griffin's dogleg.
"Scarlett, I can now say that you intended to murder the nobles, but unfortunately you were not well prepared, and I killed you, I could have scrapped your hands and feet, and let you lie here and watch me go to your daughter, I gave you a chance, but unfortunately, it was too late. ”
Griffin's face froze, and then he snapped his fingers.
"Lehman, do it!"
As fast as lightning, the sword light suddenly rose, and Viscount Scarlet only felt a flower in front of him, and the cold light came towards him, with an awe-inspiring murderous aura, which made his heart sink.
"Death...... Ugh!"
But before Lehman's sword arrived, he suddenly changed direction, and then, as if he had been hit by a huge iron hammer, he flew out to the side, shattering an entire wall, and struggling twice in the dust, but there was no sound.
Viscount Scarlet watched all this in a daze, and still hadn't come back to his senses.
Griffin's face was pale, he was addicted to wine, he neglected to exercise, he couldn't beat these guards at all, and now that Lehman was inexplicably sent flying, he was the most panicked.
And Irandall looked at the person who mysteriously appeared and knocked the strong Lehman into the air with one blow.
The man had black hair, inky eyes, looked to be in his early twenties, wore a modest coat, and was in a punching position.
The man wasn't handsome, but his eyes were impressive, and he slowly straightened up, patted the dust off his body, and then looked at Griffin.
"You, who are you, difficult, don't you know that I am the rightful heir of the Brigitte family, and you dare to make a move on me!?"
Before Griffin could finish speaking, he saw the man throw a punch into his face, and the fist whistled and resounded in the air with a terrifying roar.
As the punch approached, Griffin lost consciousness due to fear, and the whole person fainted.
And the fist was very close to Griffin's face.
"I'm just a passerby of interest. ”
The man withdrew his fist and said slowly. 10
