Carter Horton sat calmly opposite me in civilian clothes, his slightly fat belly was slightly erect, against the edge of the table, he frowned slightly, looked down at the chair, and moved back a few times, rubbing out a gap of more than half a meter, before he comfortably straightened his position and sat down.

After taking a few breaths of comfort, he said in a deep voice: "It's been many days since I said goodbye last time, and I'm still doing well?" ”

Smiling slightly, I said, "I listen to the little days that I longing for my wishes, but there are always people who don't want me to be happy." ”

"Oh?" Horton was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Who is it that can make such a young handsome man like you feel unsatisfactory?" ”

"Listening to Your Majesty's words, are you going to avenge me as a grass people?"

"Oh yo, I didn't say that," Horton laughed, "How can I, the little Lord of Ari City, take care of someone who dares to offend even the righteous son of the legendary giant Master Dewey?" ”

Looking at the harmless smiles of other animals, I said lightly: "If this person has a relationship with you, what should you do?" Is it asylum to death? Or do you ignore it? ”

Horton's face did not change, and said, "Then it depends on the relationship between this person and me." ”

With my chin on my chin, I stared straight at him and said, "I wonder if I can have the honor of listening to His Majesty's definition of 'relationship'?" ”

Horton paused for a moment and said, "If you can get the ears of Master Dewey's son, it will not be in vain for me Carter Horton's life, well, I will tell you about it." ”

"If that person is my family, I can't sit idly by, if that person is not my family, but my subordinate, I will also consider it at my discretion, after all, it will be related to my reputation, and my status in the Zephyr Continent, if that person has nothing to do with either, then you can like it."

"Okay" I clapped my hands again and again, laughed, and said, "This person is neither your family nor your subordinates, although he may be in Ari City, but I am afraid he is not on His Majesty's protection list." ”

"Round-the-bush" Carter Horton snorted coldly and said, "Since they are not under my protection, you just have to do it, why bother to invite me over?" ”

"Isn't this to show politeness and respect for you," I smiled slightly, and said, "Speaking of which, the person who offended me is not even from Ari City, but from Yorkhan. ”

He frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "Then you go to the city lord of York Han, what are you doing here with me?" ”

My smile remained unchanged, and I said leisurely: "Because compared to the fiery temper of the lord of York City, you seem to be easier to speak." ”

"Hmph" Horton snorted coldly again, and said, "Do you still want to thank you for looking up at you?" ”

"If that's what you think, it's okay to be grateful."

Carter Houghton's eyes widened and his face was quite ugly, but after a few seconds, he took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, and said slowly: "Since you have said so, I will sell you face, let's say, who is the person who offended you, remember, don't beat around the bush again." ”

"Okay," I nodded, "Then I'll tell you, I wonder if you've heard of a guild called the Knights of the Round Table." ”

Horton's expression was stunned, he was silent for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I've heard of it, so what?" ”

"They sent an ambush to hunt down a woman in Arie."

Horton lowered his eyelids and said slowly: "I don't know about this, besides, the Adventurers' Guild can set up an ambush to hunt down a woman, I'm afraid this woman has done something that people and gods are angry about." ”

"Whether people and gods are angry, I don't know, and I don't plan to find out, I just know that this woman is related to one of my subordinates, and you are also a person who cares about reputation and status, so you should be able to understand my current situation."

"How do you understand, and what if you don't?" Horton said slightly.

"If you can understand, I will naturally express my gratitude, if not, I have nothing to say, but, I hope you can discuss with the lord of York Han City, abandon this guild that is good at causing trouble, and it is best to hand it over to me, you can rest assured, as long as it falls into my hands, I will stop making trouble for you, and soon it will disappear on the Zephyr Continent, along with everything related to it, will be disposed of."

"What if I don't follow your instructions?" Horton's expression was grim, and the majesty of the superior was instantly unmistakable.

I chuckled and said lazily, "That's not what you have to talk about?" ”

Horton's brow furrowed, and he looked at me like a man-devouring tiger, but no matter how ferocious he was, it seemed to me not even as oppressive as an Amon had brought to me.

After being silent for a long time, he said in a deep voice, "You're so rude, aren't you afraid that I'll leave you in Eri City?" ”

"It doesn't matter," I spread my hands, and said lightly: "I was prepared for this before I came here, if I can't go back unharmed, or before I get a satisfactory answer, I will be driven back in disgrace, as long as I encounter either of these two situations, Ari City and Yorkham City will suffer the joint blows of the other three countries, and the Carter family and the Simmons family will also be destroyed, not only you, but also your family, relatives, friends, and even all the families who are good friends with your family, A hundred years later, my name will be engraved in the history books as a single hero, and your family, and Simmons's family, will be buried forever in the dust of history. ”

With a smile, I added, "Actually, it's good, and it saves future generations the trouble of studying the history of your two families, and it can be regarded as saving some effort for those archaeologists to excavate some more valuable ancient heritage." ”

Carter Houghton's face was rather ugly, as if he had swallowed a toad alive.

It's no wonder he has such an expression, as a hegemon, he did not hesitate to kill his brother and brother, became a monarch, and reigned in Ari City, no longer threatened by others, but today, he is once again faced with a choice, leaving him with a problem, and forcing him to choose a child who has not yet been weakly crowned.

How can this keep him from being annoyed?

His eyes wanted to peel me alive.

However, this middle-aged man who was blessed and angry insisted on treating me with no fault.

The reason why Ari City and Yorkham City have repeatedly provoked Dasai City is to let Dasai City take the lead in starting a war, and only in this way can they fundamentally curb the interference of Siege City and Moonlight City.

Carter Horton is not a fool, no matter how strong the alliance of the two countries is, it is impossible to withstand the heavy crushing of Vicky Castle and the overwhelming rain of arrows in Moonlight City.

Well, the rain of arrows is still easy to say, find a good cover, the mortality rate will be relatively reduced, but the dwarves are not covered by heavy loading, in the battle of the five guilds that year, the dwarf guild relied on the power of one to crush the other four.

Who dares to guarantee that once the war ignites, the dwarven guild will not cross the ocean, pull off the fight, and push Eri City.
