Chapter XVIII: The Captive

When Days opened his eyes again, he found himself in a very strange place. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info here, it should be a tent in the enemy camp, and there are oil lamps lit in the tent, so it's still night. Himself, presumably sitting, but unable to command his own hands.

Ah, is it tied up? So do you say you're being captured? So you said you fainted before?

I don't have any impression at all.,I don't know how I fainted.,It seems that I haven't even seen the enemy.。 Or did you just forget your memories at that time?

"That...... Is anyone there? Days asked, squealing.

There was movement outside the tent, and a soldier stepped in to take a look, and the pattern of his uniform indicated that he was indeed a soldier of Kaunch.

"Yo, are you awake?" After saying that, he shrank back. Calm returned to the tent.

"That- how are my companions?"

"You should worry about yourself first, look at the coat of arms on your body, like one of the flags flying on the castle of Berryford, you should be a nobleman, you are lucky, someone should come to ransom you." It was the voice of another man, and it seemed that there were at least two people guarding the tent.

Redeem?

I don't know how much it will cost here, and I don't know how much the family will give at most. In other words, maybe the next time I go to the battlefield, I have to discuss this matter with my brother first, and maybe I can bargain with this side.

However, thinking of his bargaining power, Days is really not sure. Although he was in charge of a lot of the buying work at the school party, it was Sophia who actually handled the matter, and with Sophia's familiarity with Frankendo and her relationships in Frankendo, he was able to do his job well.

Also, just after arguing with his brother, he rarely had the opportunity to take himself to the battlefield, and this time he had to trouble his brother again, so he really didn't want to go.

There were hurried footsteps outside, followed by a somewhat immature voice: "The nobleman that the Kellner family protects, is inside?" ”

"Yes, sir." Two neat voices.

"Okay." The voice may seem familiar, but who could it be?

The man squeezed in.

The two men quickly met eye contact.

Oh no, it's someone Dyce doesn't want to see at allβ€”"Lawrence! ”

"I was surprised to see me."

This classmate of his own level had a devilish treacherous expression on his face.

"Indeed, sort of."

"As soon as I heard that someone from the Kellner family had been caught, I wondered if it was you."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Do you know why I immediately thought it was you?"

"Probably...... Not a good reason. ”

"That's right, because of the Kellner family, there are so many waste materials that will be caught intact by people on the battlefield, and you are the only one! Hahahahaha! ”

But it doesn't seem to be wrong, as a magician, I didn't use my mental power to scout the surroundings at that time, and I didn't know if I was approached, so I really lacked experience on the battlefield.

However, in a place like the battlefield, it cannot be said that you have passed without experience, and it is likely that your own slight negligence will cause you to never see the sun the next day.

"Well, that's true, I'm acting inexperienced."

"It's good to be aware of your own problems. But do you think I'm going to let you go back? ”

One kick. Kick in the thigh. It's a bit heavy. It hurts.

"You coward, why shouldn't you send you a challenge book!"

"I think it's childish ......"

"Childish!?" Continue to kick, "You think it's naΓ―ve!?" You're insulting a nobleman! "One more kick," you made me wait by the lake for a whole day, and then I heard that you had gone back in an airship with a pretty chick! ”

"I'm sorry."

"This kind of thing, say sorry and it's over!?"

Lawrence seemed to have accumulated a lot of resentment, and every time he said a word, he would hit Dyce hard, legs, arms, head, any exposed parts could cause this guy to be beaten.

"Huh? Don't think that I won't have a chance to have that big guy John protecting me in the school all the time, don't you think I will have a chance this time? ”

"Do you think it's okay to get close to His Highness Cecilia? It's a shame, I tell you, it's a shame! How could we, His Highness Cecilia of the Kaunch Kingdom, marry such a waste wood as you. That's the commander of the Shadow Force, the future Duchess! Are you kidding! ”

"I'm sorry."

"You bastard! At this time, saying sorry makes it even more unworthy of our Cecilia! None of our young nobles in the Kingdom of Kaunch are worse than you, what else do you have besides being able to get the top five in the exam? You're not even as good as a recruit on the battlefield! Bah, it's a shame that I went to the same school. ”

A stormy beating, kicking hard and scolding viciously, made Lawrence a little tired enough.

When Days looked up, Lawrence was amused.

The childish face, which was originally polite and polite, is now blue and purple, and there are some blood stains on the swollen corners of the mouth.

"Don't think I can't beat you, as long as you don't cripple you, you can still get the highest ransom, and no one will have an opinion. And don't expect Her Highness Cecilia to come to your rescue, she has her position, and besides, she is about to make a marriage contract. ”

"With whom?" Days immediately asked.

"Of course, I don't know yet. Because she will only be married to the future king of the kingdom of Kaunki. ”

"So, the old king died, and then his sons were fighting each other?"

A slap on the head of Dyce, "Yo, I didn't expect Mr. Wastewood, who is stupid to this extent, to have such an idea, it's good, but this is a matter for our Kaunch Kingdom, you captive, you are not qualified to make irresponsible remarks." ”

Another slap in the face, "Fight? Can such a thing as politics be called a fight? That's politics, you know? From small families, families, to kingdoms, to kingdoms, and even entire continents, this is an art, how much can you understand? To describe it in such a contemptuous tone, it is really waste wood, you must not even be able to get a fief the size of a small village in your family! ”

Well, it seems that there is no mistake at all.

Days just don't say it.

But even Dyce, who didn't speak, was constantly being torn apart by Lawrence.

Before dawn, Days was tied to a pillar in the open air by Lawrence's soldiers. As soon as the sun came out, he began to enjoy the abundant sunshine of the day - oh, this rare sunbath, if only someone could help him apply some sunscreen.

"Just don't kill anyway." Lawrence said it so easily, and then turned and left.

A few soldiers were left to guard him. The bored soldier begins to think of all kinds of ways to torture Dyce to kill time.

Days couldn't speak anymore, his face was bruised and his eyes were a little too open to be devastated by Lawrence.

And the fierceness of the sun also made Days feel like he was gradually moving away. Fluttering, fluttering.

No, I'm going to die.

He felt that it was getting dark, and he felt that he was floating faster.

I even heard my own familiar voice.

"Give him some water, oh my God, how did it come to be like this." It was probably Ruth's voice.

"This fool must have offended his brother. Otherwise, he would have been sent to the front line to reconnoiter at this time. The country is in civil strife, and the border defense will definitely strengthen its precautions. "It was a cold voice, as if it belonged to Miss Cecilia.

Days wanted to open his eyes, but his body didn't listen to the command at all.

It seems that he is really dying, and he will hear an impossible sound. It's just that in order not to see the grandparents who have passed away summoning themselves on the other side of the river?

Anyway, do you really have grandparents, why haven't you seen them? It seems like...... I really haven't seen it. That's why you won't see them on the other side of the river?

It seems that this is indeed the case, because I don't know them, but I just saw them in the castle with their majestic portraits.

O gods of light, forgive me for my earthly transgressions, and cleanse me from sin. Let me see your glory. Amen......

Upon hearing the news that the captives had been taken away, Lawrence rushed back to the scene.

It turned out that Dyce, a classmate who had planned to dry it into dried fish, was gone. A few of the soldiers on guard had been rescued by the priests, and a few had fainted on the ground.

Walking over to the post, Lawrence examined the broken rope that had fallen to the ground, which had been tied to Dyce's hand. Because it is cut by a smooth blade.

Who could it be? His Royal Highness Cecilia should still be in the capital. No, no, how can Cecilia be the first to think of it? Even if she could mobilize the most elite Shadow troops, she couldn't do anything like that.

Could it be the Kellners? But sending such elite troops in, in case of losses, isn't it even heavier? In this way, it is cheaper to pay the ransom directly.

It's a pity, I originally wanted to take this opportunity to rectify my classmate. A weak, incompetent fellow, even a nobleman from an enemy country, actually hit His Royal Highness Cecilia with the idea, what a lazy toad wants to eat swan meat!

Lawrence threw the rope the ground and turned away.

"The next time I have a chance, I must punish him even harder!"

Anyway, report to the commander first, maybe you haven't escaped yet.
