Chapter 138: Fatis and Kenrad
In Uxhall's tavern, the Peony mercenaries gathered at the card table to watch the gambling between Alleyne and Kenrad.
At this time, Alleyne whistled, and his face was relaxed. Bandak, who was sitting across from him, frowned and said nothing.
The dice cups in front of the two of them were buckled on the table, and Ellen smiled slightly, took the dice cups away, and took the two dice with the number five to the side, and then put the rest of the dice into the dice cup and shook it again.
"Smack!"
Alleyne's palm slapped on the table and quickly removed the dice.
The onlookers hurriedly looked at the dice inside, but unfortunately, none of these dice had the same number.
Unfortunately, Alleyne didn't finish in time and he didn't score in this game.
Alleyne shrugged, and a relaxed smile appeared on Bandak's face.
He opened his dice cup, and all the dice were numbered one. In this game, this is the highest score imaginable.
"You won."
Alleyne sighed, untied his waist pocket, and threw it to Kenrad.
Bandak quickly reached out and caught the purse in mid-air, pouring out a gold coin and several silver coins of 5 dinars from it.
"I'll invite everyone to drink!"
As Bandak's hearty laughter rang out, the mercenaries who were watching next to him cheered and walked to the tavern counter in their arms.
"They're having so much fun, why don't you try it?"
At another table, Kenrad held up his glass and smiled at Fatis, who sat across from him.
"I don't have that hobby."
The corners of Fatis glanced at Bandak, who was smiling as he walked back to the table with a beer keg in his hand, and Alleyn, who was still in a good mood despite losing money, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"What about you, you won't try?"
Fatis drank half of the ale in his glass in one gulp, and then asked Kenrad.
"I played a few games with Alleyne before you came, and I lost to him for 50 dinars. Good luck is not with me today. ”
Kenrad put down his glass, pointed to his wallet a little helplessly, and then filled his own glass with wine.
"But you, why didn't you go to the tavern today to talk to that priest about your incomprehensible things?"
Asked this, Fatis's expression became solemn, and his tone became heavy.
"Yesterday Jamila went to the Baron of Kent to collect the money we had sold to his family for the armor and weapons, but they refused to pay anything but the deposit."
Fatis paused at this point, his eyes fixed on Kenrad.
"They said that we had robbed half of our caravans of their goods, and that we were going to pay off our debts with those things. Until now, Jamila had been left there to continue negotiations with them, and she had only one infantry by her side, and the situation was very bad. ”
Fatis had an obvious point, because it was Kenrad who was leading the robbery and extortion of the caravan. At that time, Byron did not make up his mind to rob the caravan with Baron Swadia as the majority shareholder, but Kenla had to help him directly, killing three people and taking all the most valuable goods in the caravan.
"Well, they're right. There is no way, that caravan is too fat, and it is still smuggling with the Rhodoks, and it would be a waste of opportunity if you don't rob it. ”
Kenrad did not deny the impact of his actions on the incident, and Fatis told him his purpose.
"Mr. Byron doesn't want to show up, and I think we can settle the matter ourselves."
Fatis said to him.
"If he meant it, then I have nothing to refuse. He's a good team leader, and he's so rich. ”
Kenrad nodded, then looked at Alleyne, who was drinking with Bandak, and asked Fatis.
"Don't you call him? If I'm not mistaken, this Wiki and the little Rhodoc girl seem to have a leg. ”
As for Kenrad's suggestion, Fatis just shook his head and sighed lightly.
"He's too impulsive. If he had been told that Jamila had been forcibly left behind, it would not be impossible for him to cut down the baron. ”
Kenrad didn't say much about Fatis's explanation. He raised his glass and drank the rest of it, then picked up the saber that he had set aside.
"How many people are there with that baron?"
Kenrad asked, putting on the armor he had taken off to the corner of the table.
"Is he at home? There are fifteen guards and soldiers combined. ”
Fatis replied after a moment's thought.
"Very good, then I'll bring ten friends from the army over, you can go first, and wait for me at their door later."
Phatis knew that Kenrad was not an ordinary person, and his old troops were all heavily armed cavalry, and they were still strong infantry when they dismounted.
Although he couldn't do it casually because of the identity of the other party, Fatis believed that the words of deterrence were enough.
Soon, a small group was assembled at the entrance of the tavern, and Kenrad led them to Baron Kent's address in the city.
Fatis was the first to enter the mansion, and the baron's butler told them that the baron was not here, that he could not be the master, and that they were to go back.
As for Jamila, who was with another mercenary and guarded by the baron's soldiers, he also said that he had no right to release her.
He insisted that Byron come here in person to apologize and discuss the rest of the compensation with the baron. Obviously, this was the request revealed to them by the baron.
Fatis argued with the other party for a while, but the butler was very slippery, and did not give in at all. Fatis argued with him for a long time, but in the end nothing came to an end.
Kenrad stood aside and listened to their argument for a long time, and finally he couldn't help it.
He rushed in with his saber and kicked the guards in his way.
And the veterans he brought with him for a long time no longer politely greeted the barons' guards after seeing Tada's performance. They did not use weapons, and in a flurry of punches and kicks, they knocked down all the guards in the house of the Baron of Kent, who was blocking the way.
The butler was dumbfounded, he didn't expect the other party to really play a mercenary temper here. In front of the other party's mercenaries, these guards, whose level is equivalent to 1 light soldier, will be so vulnerable.
Neither side would benefit from the fight, so he never showed up, and the baron of Kent, who was said by the steward to go hunting, "returned" in time, and asked the attendant to put his orders in the hands of the steward.
After reading the contents of the letter, the housekeeper still ordered the release of the person. However, they still refused to pay their salaries and called in the nearby security team to help.
Kenrad threw Byron a mess, and Fatis could only report the situation to Byron in its entirety, leaving with Jamila by the way.
It's common sense that trees are big and windy. And the tree planted by Byron has attracted a lot of jealousy.
