Chapter 224: Layla's Request
National Mansion.
Layla looked out the window sadly, her eyes looking in the direction of the south, and she thought to herself: Is it out of the city gate?
"Layla!"
Fraco's voice rang behind Layla.
"Father!" Layla wiped away a handful of tears, then slowly turned around.
Seeing Layla with red eyes, Duke Fraco's heart seemed to be pinched, it was not that he was unwilling to save Liu Wuyao, but he was too sensitive on this issue and it was difficult for him to make a move.
"Layla, I'm sorry. Father has no way to save your sweetheart. "Duke Vlaco is a figure who turns his hands into clouds and rains in Elmegiana, but when he encounters Bhasa Yar of Ötzi, he can't do anything about it.
This is a country where the weak eat the strong, and the strong will always eat away at the weak, although Duke Fraco is a big man in Al Megia, but how can the national strength of Al Megia be like the country of Otzi.
At nightfall, Layla went to her boudoir early after dinner.
Entering the room, Layla quickly changed into her night clothes.
"Miss, is this really good?" A middle-aged man in a black robe with a withered face asked.
"I don't know, but I can't do it watching my favorite person die. I'm sorry for you. Layla said it with some determination, and she tidied up her belt and pocketed a few hedrons of different colors.
"Miss, if you let the master know, I'm afraid something will happen." The withered man was a little worried, Layla went to save Liu Wuyao this time, if there was a case, it would subvert the entire Emir family, and she would have done her a disservice.
"Miss, I still feel inappropriate." The withered man is very stumbling.
Harrison...... Please. Layla hugged the withered man, "If you don't save him, my heart will stop beating, I feel like my soul is going to die, help me." ”
The withered man is Layla's servant and has served by Layla's side since he was a child, and he is a magician wanted by the Sorcerers' Guild, whose home country is not in El Megia.
The withered man's name is Harrison, he is 40 years old this year, his home country is in the country of Burabye, Harrison was originally a promising magician, he became an intermediate mage at the age of 25, looking around the entire ancient continent, there are few people who can reach the level of an intermediate mage at the age of 25, all he is a very talented magician.
The turning point was when he was 28 years old, his family was implicated because of its involvement in the battle for the crown prince, and more than 200 members of the entire family were brutally killed, but he left with a blood feud. In 10 years, he learned dark magic, and finally killed the second prince of Bulabiyah, who framed his family, that is, the crown prince who was already very much the crown prince, killing the prince can not be a joke, he was blacklisted, the entire magician association is wanted by him, after tossing and turning, he came to Elmygia incognito, and then met Duke Fraco, the duke took him in, Duke Fraco of course knew his identity, but still took him in, this is a kind of courage, and long-term consideration.
Although Harrison's rank is an intermediate magician, in terms of his current strength, he is on par with Taiher, which means that he is the fourth greatest magician in the shadows.
Harrison has always been arranged to protect and accompany her, Miss Layla, for as long as Layla can remember, she has been accompanied by Harrison, Harrison is a person who values affection, and treats Layla as his own daughter in the long relationship, and this sincere affection has gone beyond the relationship between master and servant.
Again, Harrison felt guilty that Layla was attacked by orcs and almost died. Although that incident was irresistible, because at that time, Layla was a cavalry team disguised as a man, and Harrison could not accompany her.
"Miss, isn't it too risky?" Harrison was still worried.
"Do you want to watch me die?" Layla's misty eyes were full of sorrow, and the pain seemed to infect Harrison.
"Miss, the power of Po Sayer should not be underestimated." Harrison said admonishingly.
"Are you scared?" Layla let go of the hand that was encircling him, and asked straight with stunned eyes, like a sun pass through the clouds, piercing Harrison's heart.
"I'm not afraid, my life is worthless." Since his revenge, Harrison has been at peace, and his heart has long been free of waves.
"Human life is valuable, and if you are escorted to the country of Ötz this time, I will also save you."
This sentence swept through Harrison's heart like a spring breeze, and Harrison's eyebrows stretched, some moved, some sad.
"Miss......"
"Harrison, help me, with your strength, Aberham is no match for you."
Harrison was indeed stronger than Aberham, and more intelligent, he felt that the matter was far from being so simple, such a major escort, and only Aberham was dispatched, there must be something wrong with it, he wanted to say it, but seeing that Layla was so resolute, he swallowed the words back.
"Harrison, please, help me this time, I'll be grateful to you for the rest of my life." Layla pleaded, twinking through her eyes.
Harrison sighed heavily and said, "Okay. ”
Hearing Harrison say yes, Layla hugged him gratefully.
"Thank you, thank you so much."
At the moment in Duke Fraco's study.
Tahel: "Duke, it seems a bit wrong to send only Aberham this time?" ”
"Well, it seems that the princess still has a back hand." Duke Fraco squinted his eyes and said, "The princess must have tried to induce the black hand behind it, but she didn't even consult me. ”
"It seems that the princess is also suspicious of us?"
"Hehe, I can only say that the princess has grown up, and on the surface we are indeed on the side of the princess, but ask yourself, I am a profiteering, and I want to seek benefits for the family."
"Duke, there doesn't seem to be movement on Gray's side, and the more there is no movement, the more suspicious it becomes."
"How's Archmage Ulla going?"
Ulla is one of the three great magicians.
"It's still on Gray House, there's no movement."
"Oh, so ......" Duke Fraco paused, and suddenly curled the corners of his mouth, and laughed wickedly.
"The Duke'......"
"Hehe, it seems that Gray, this kid, is going to use the dark troops. It's a really interesting game, the princess wants to hunt down the masterminds, Gray wants to kill Kuti and them, causing a fight between countries, let's watch the show quietly. Fraco smiled thickly.
"Is Miss Layla at ease?" Tahr asked with concern.
"Although Layla is a girl, she has inherited our family blood very well, and after understanding the relationship, I believe she has given up on this relationship."
Layla has been a political visionary since she was a child, and she is a very rational child, and she knows what a powerful relationship is, but this time Fra is wrong, and the girl will have a time to change. Especially when the love is first opened. (To be continued.) )
