374F, belated pursuers
When Moran met Philora, a fleet of ships had also reached the shores of the kingdom of Beauville.
This is a fleet from the kingdom of Sidl, and the leader is none other than the king's most important minister, Seronnias.
Upon questioning, Thronias quickly zeroed in on an outsider named Moran.
A skilled female traveler.
Although it has wings, it is easy to fake...... After all, the pair of wings on his body are not genuine.
Thronias inquired about the ship that had brought them, but found nothing.
Maybe it's gone.
So he set his sights on the king's palace.
I heard that Moran and his companions had been taken to the palace.
If Seronias is not mistaken, the king of this country must have been related to the king of the kingdom of Sidl.
The late Queen Anna was none other than King Raimo's own sister.
Although the relations between the two countries are not very good, they are still friendly, and there should be no problem in basic negotiations.
"The two brave men have gone to the Weeping Canyon to destroy the pig-headed monsters that have caused trouble. ”
Here's how King Okka replied.
Thronias frowned and said, "That woman named Moran is a snitch who has stolen our country's treasures, and that's why we're here. ”
"That's going to be difficult......" King Okka looked embarrassed.
But...... Thronias saw it on the other man's face, asking for a favor.
He had done some research beforehand, and this king of Okka had only been seated on the throne by mercenaries of the Fishmen.
After that, the mercenary of the fish-people was like a parasite of the country, constantly demanding benefits, and the king did not dare to resist.
The people complain about the atrocities of the fish-man mercenaries in the country, but the state still spends a lot of money every year on these blood-sucking moths.
So, what Okka lacks is money.
As for Seronias, the last thing he lacks is money.
Because...... The money is not his.
And from the treasury of the Kingdom of Sidl, and from the people of Siddle who toiled hard.
"If you can help us recover our country's most important treasures, we are willing to give away some treasures to help the development of the kingdom of Beanville. ”
"Speaking of which, the group did look suspicious. "As soon as they came to the island, they inquired about the whereabouts of the pig-headed monsters, perhaps with them." Oops, I was deceived by them...... Blame me, blame me. ”
With a few words, Okka agreed to assist Thronias, captured two heinous thieves of the country's heinous national treasures, and even agreed to lend the Fishman mercenaries.
Naturally, he had the idea of losing both ways and letting the group of bloodsuckers die.
Thronias was not stupid, and led his troops into the Weeping Canyon, which was not a problem for him, but it was still an extremely dangerous place for this group of waste.
To come to the map, look at the three exits of Crying Canyon, and the soldiers are divided into three ways.
On the left and right, they were guarded by the soldiers and horses of Beauville.
"Your Excellency, you mean that we and the borrowed mercenaries of the Fishmen are guarding the main exit?" said a tall, sturdy man with a red beard, in a smug voice.
This is General Wolfe, who came with Thronias, and although he is not as strong as Dunning, he also has first-order strength.
"This exit is connected to the capital of the Kingdom of Beanville, and they are most likely to leave from here...... Seronias said.
After discussion, the others left.
It was only then that Thronias noticed a maid standing at the door of the room with a tea tray in her hand.
He glanced at the steaming cups of black tea on the table, and he didn't know when they were placed at hand.
Thronias shook his head, he just didn't care about these little bugs, he completely ignored their existence.
He waved his hand and motioned for the maid to leave.
Tomorrow is the day, and he's not in the mood to care about these bugs.
The maid gave a polite salute and walked away quickly.
-
As soon as Mary left the room, her steps grew faster and faster.
The hand holding the tea tray has also emerged with green tendons.
- What to do, what to do!
She recalls her communication with Moran, who was so gentle and friendly, that it was hard for Maria to imagine that such a person could be a thief of national treasures......
No, it's not.
Even if Moran really stole it, it must be for the people!
Mary had heard rumors of the recent miasma of the kingdom of Sidl that had made the people miserable...... Of course, this people are not living well, and it may only be limited to the wingless.
In short, in Maria's opinion, King Okka was not a good thing, and neither was the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked pet Thronias......
People are working hard to destroy monsters for them, and they want to ambush them at the exit?
- I have to think of something.
Maria suddenly remembered that Moran had said that she had bought a lot of things in the city. But she hadn't seen any of those things in her room, so the only possibility was that Moran had sent them to his ship.
If she finds Moran and Hayraj's boat, she should be able to find a way.
When you think of it, you do it immediately.
Mary turned around and asked the maid for a day off, then ran to the shore to inquire about the ship's whereabouts.
-
"Captain, someone is inquiring about the ship on which the mistress and the man are traveling. ”
A tall, dark-skinned man stood beside Bennett Sr., reporting.
"Again?" said old Bennett, scratching his head in annoyance.
Two days ago, when they were leaving, they came here and told him that they were going to Crying Canyon and told them to wait here for a few more days.
However, old Bennett had a little more heart, and asked his subordinates not to reveal the owner of the ship according to Moran's earlier instructions, and lied to the outside world that it was the caravan docked here.
I didn't expect that there would be a "return" so soon.
A group of soldiers with the seal of the Siddle Kingdom on their bodies searched everywhere, and their men did not know anything.
It didn't take long for the soldiers to leave, and old Bennett thought they had given up, but they didn't expect that they had just left on the front foot, and someone on the back foot came to inquire?
"Who are they?" asked Bennett Sr.
"Just a maid. ”
"She's the only one?"
"Yes. ”
"Who does she work for?"
"It seems to be just a low-level maid, doing all kinds of chores. ”
Old Bennett took out his pipe, added some tobacco, and before he could say anything, the black-skinned man took the initiative to light a cigarette for him.
The sailor's name was Masik.
Of the seven or eight people hired, only Masik had followed Bennett Sr. for many years, which made him particularly trusted.
At that time, when Moran hired people, Bennett Sr. also highly recommended them, so they were hired together.
Old Bennett snorted his pipe, puffing through the clouds, not knowing what he was thinking.
Masik said aloud, "These two little masters don't seem to be ordinary people, they may be able to help us." ”
"It's useless to be able to help, it depends on morality. Old Bennett knocked his pipe and said, "But it's all right, they're not bad." Especially that Hairaj is already a little stupid...... He's a lovely lad. ”
"And they're wingless, and I'm sure they can understand our situation. Masik said. He remembered that Hayraj had rushed out without wings one day, and was then reprimanded by Moran.
Masik happened to pass by and accidentally glanced at it, but then pretended not to see anything.
"Wingless Man...... Perhaps......" said old Bennett thoughtfully.
"Captain, what's next?"
Old Bennett thought for a moment and said, "Ask the maid to come over." ”
