Chapter 285: The Director-General appears
Looking at the square that gradually subsided, Astolfo slowly turned around, smiled slightly at his master on the high platform, stretched out his hand and posed in a scissor pose, and Firena did not hesitate to give a thumbs up to the showy Ah Fu at this moment, and the pride on her face was self-evident.
On the other hand, Kane, as the patriarch, did not feel a trace of displeasure because of the cowardice of his own people, and still had a faint smile on his face, and his slightly squinted eyes made Firena a little confused about what he was thinking at the moment.
According to common sense, his own people are so cowardly and afraid of war, even if they didn't turn their faces on the spot, but they should have a gloomy and unhappy face, but Kane, as the patriarch, is now unusually smiling, which can't help but feel a little strange for Firena.
As if feeling the eyes cast by Firena from time to time, Kane slowly got up from the stool and didn't say anything, just smiled at Firena, and then walked to the front desk, ready to announce the end of the competition.
However, just as he waved his big hand and was about to announce the results, a gust of wind suddenly blew through the square, and then everyone saw a black light flash in front of their eyes, and before everyone in the square could react, Taylor, who was originally standing in the crowd, had already knelt down on one knee in the middle of the square, bowed his head and said loudly: "Patriarch! I'm not convinced! ”
Faced with the sudden situation, not only Firena and her party, but even Kane, who was the patriarch, frowned without a trace, and immediately raised his eyelids slightly, looked at Kane who was kneeling in the center, and said lightly: "Tell me, what is the reason?" ”
Seeing the coldness hidden on his patriarch's face, Taylor was stunned for a moment, and then felt even more angry in his heart, thinking that the patriarch Kane Kane was favoring Taylor, who was biased against this group of outsiders, pressed the fire in his chest slightly, showed a reluctant smile on his cheeks, and said loudly:
"This outsider only defeated Sass in the battle just now with a special weapon, otherwise with the strong strength of our Minotaur clan, how could he lose to a yellow-haired little girl."
"Oh? Is that why you're not convinced? After hearing Taylor's words, Kane took a deep breath and quickly shifted his gaze to the knight's spear in Astolford's hand.
At the same time, while Firena was talking to Matthew in a low voice, the corner of her eye also happened to catch a glimpse of the curvature outlined on the corner of Taylor's mouth, and then while making all the servants careful, a faint sneer also appeared on the corner of her mouth, after all, how big of a climate can a person who can't even hide his joy and anger be?
"Patriarch, I'm going to have another competition with her, I don't need a totem pole, and I hope she doesn't use that strange spear that can make people fall, let's really have a martial arts contest, and I will definitely be able to achieve honor for the Minotaur clan." Taylor said loudly, with a hint of pride on his face, as the pride of the sky, he never thought that he would lose to a little girl who had not dried up.
"Hmph, even if I don't have to touch anyone and fall, I can still beat you." After hearing Taylor's agitation, Ah Fu, who had evaporated reason, put away the golden knight's spear without hesitation, and immediately puffed up his chest, pointed at Taylor's nose and said with a smile.
Seeing Ah Fu's action, Firena's eyebrows raised slightly.
After all, Astolford was summoned to the other world by himself as a rider, because he was worried that the appearance of the phantom beast was too shocking, so he was ordered not to use the eagle in the duel, and his strength was already greatly reduced, and now he took back the person who touched it, which is tantamount to ten percent of his strength being sealed eighty percent, and his own strength is only second-rate, in this state of self-sealing, I am afraid it is extremely difficult to defeat the premeditated Minotaur genius.
Thinking of this, Firena gently put her right hand next to her ear and whispered to the director, "Chief, are you sure that you can defeat that minotaur named Taylor without using Haori?" ”
"No problem, master." After slightly estimating Taylor's strength, a hint of coldness flashed in the eyes of the general director, and then his clenched right hand loosened slightly, and said confidently.
"Okay, you'll ......be like this later" Firena, who was willing to replace the director-general, quietly informed the director-general of her idea to the director-general after a little thought.
Kane, who didn't notice Firena's small movements at all, looked at the tense atmosphere of the two in the square, and could only touch his chin and think alone, although he brought Firena and the others over to compete was just to relieve boredom, but the current situation seemed to have exceeded his expectations, plus there was a Jay Norn staring at him, although he was not afraid of him, but he couldn't be too partial to his own people, so he could only smile and ask Firena:
"Little girl, your follower seems to want to fight with us, I don't know what you think?"
"Of course there is no problem, I believe they are the strongest." Nodding, Firena's eyes narrowed slightly.
And as if he had received a hint from his master, the head secretary immediately stood up the moment after Firena finished speaking, saluted Kane respectfully, and then said lightly:
"Master, Lord Kane, it's rude, I have something to say."
"Yes, let's talk about it." Looking down at the equally slender head secretary, Kane was not in the least annoyed by the interruption of his words, but nodded with a smile and motioned for her to continue.
Hearing Kane's words, the dumb hair on the head of the chief suddenly jumped, and then said loudly: "Astolford, as a knight, has lost his mount and commonly used weapons, and his strength cannot be brought into full play at all, even if he wins, it doesn't mean anything, why don't let me replace him and fight against the warrior of the Minotaur below." ”
"Hmm...... A knight who loses his mount is indeed unable to exert his true strength. Stroking the beard on his chin, Kane glanced up and down at the director-general, then nodded at Firena and continued. In that case, let's replace the knight girl on the field. ”
"Yes, thank you, Lord Kane." Bowing slightly to Kane, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of the director-general, and he strode towards the center of the square.
"Eh, master, why don't you let me keep fighting, I can defeat him." As soon as he heard that he was going to be replaced, Astolfo's face suddenly pursed, and he said with a little displeasure.
"Go back, Mr. Astolford, Master, she has more important things waiting for you." Maybe it's because they've been together for a long time, and the general director can be said to have a very clear understanding of Ah Fu's habits.
Sure enough, under this lie, Ah Fu instantly abandoned the original idea of continuing to fight, and happily ran to Firena's side to accept the more important instructions she gave.
With the departure of Astolford, only the chief secretary and Taylor stared at each other coldly, and the cold and majestic momentum slowly spread between the two of them, and the collision of magic and fighting spirit made the originally calm square begin to hang a trace of cold wind.
