"What?" Urs frowned.
Scambed's gentleness a few seconds ago was still on the smile on the corner of his mouth, but this smiling expression seemed to be unusually cold and ruthless at this moment, and this ghostly feeling was obviously like turning a page of a book in the blink of an eye, and the former acquaintance was smiling and greeting you with a smile one second, and the next second he was actually going to come up with a set of charges that sounded simply trumped-up to arrest him?
Besides, he said what did he and Thea do?
Rebel...... Country??
"Please, please wait, Lord Sir, I don't really understand what you just said, you say ......" Receiving such an abrupt answer from Scambed's mouth, Thea blinked sluggishly, and immediately wondered if she had heard something wrong, so she quickly spoke out to ask the situation.
Skambed rode on his horse, listening to the wolf-eared girl's somewhat panicked voice, and unhurriedly put down the right hand that had just been raised to signal the guards to surround the two, the index and middle fingers of his right hand were stretched together in mid-air before falling back to the reins, and the mouth with a white beard and a gentleman's smile opened and closed calmly: "Treason, Reverend Thea, please trust your beautiful ears." ”
"But, but—"
Hearing that the chief steward, whom she knew in the past, still said this, Xia felt incredulous, and reflexively tried to argue again, but suddenly saw Urs raise his left arm obliquely to stop his body that was almost stepping forward in excitement, and the two brown eyes under the latter's black hair glanced at him with a side face, and then opened the five fingers of his left hand and clenched his fist, turned his eyes back to stare at the other party and asked for himself:
"Your Excellency, may I ask a few questions before I am arrested?"
"Allowed."
Scambed nodded, calmly raised his right hand again, and made a virtual motion with his palm downward, signaling the guards present not to worry.
Urs maintained a posture of raising his right arm above his shoulder, holding the molten iron greatsword behind his back, not rashly unloading his weapon, nor inending to release it immediately, after witnessing Scambed's attitude, he took a deep breath, and then tried to calm himself down and speak: "May I ask the evidence that the Lord Regent has concluded that we have committed treason on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor?" ”
"According to the testimony of the Viscount of Perdigau after his redemption, the Knight of Urs, you once served as a scout in the expeditionary force, but often went deep into the snowfields alone despite the itinerary of the army, and finally led the army to the ambush circle of Byron Tas, which led to the annihilation of the entire army and the capture of the commander, suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason."
…… Ha?
"I'm sorry, Lord Scambed, but as offensive as my tone may be, I can't accept that the Knight of Urs has been slandered like this, and I've never seen anything as thick as Viscount Perdigau—"
Thea clenched her fists indignantly, and after listening to Scambed's explanation, she finally couldn't control her emotions a little when she thought of Viscount Perdigau's face, even if she was usually docile and polite, she unhappily erected the two wolf ears on the silver hair on the top of her head at this moment, and the surface of the ears was as white as snow and even faintly showed signs of exploding.
Obviously, she was a little angry—if it weren't for the fact that the young man next to her was still paying attention to stopping her with his hand in front of her to stop her again, and almost blurted out a string of foul words that would be absolutely difficult to say on a normal day.
"Urs?" The silver-haired wolf-eared priest girl stopped what she hadn't finished saying, and turned her head to look at the young man who was still holding her hand obliquely, her amber eyes flashing with reluctance and incomprehension.
"......" The afterglow of Urs's eyes fell on her face, and his eyes and half-raised left hand signaled her not to be impatient, and then turned his gaze back to face the court chief under the command of the Earl of Northland, and was silent for two seconds......
Then, I slowly closed my eyes, and I figured it out a little bit in my head.
Why, in response to the return of his group, Thogas was both joyful and wary? Why do some passers-by on the streets of the city look at them strangely? Why, when she saw the palace guards coming in in the tavern and trying to take him away, did she ask herself something that sounded inexplicable to her ears at the time? The sentence: "Could it be that the rumors are true?" ”
Rumor......
Oh, I see.
Bad luck or hell, it's no wonder that things have evolved into the current state of affairs by various coincidences......
"Pierdigau, I'm *you**!"
After probably thinking through a lot of things, Urs reopened his brown eyes, bared his teeth in his heart, and greeted the family ancestor of the son of the prince of the imperial regent with the customs and habits unique to his previous life, and tried his best to vent his anger with the greatest restraint, so as to maintain the necessary calm at the moment to face the Scambed who was about to arrest himself and Thea.
Then, he withdrew the left hand that had just been raised diagonally to stop Thea, raised it to the side of his head, stretched out his index finger and tapped the corner of his eye twice, pointed to the wolf-eared girl beside him, and then looked at the old steward riding on the horse in front of him and asked, "But what does my crime have to do with Thea, Lord Steward?" Even if Pierdigo had not been insane, and Thea had not been on a reconnaissance mission with me during her expedition with the army, why did Fromeier convict her by virtue of His Majesty's imperial authority? ”
"Watch your words, Knight of Urs, it is disrespectful to call the Duke Regent by his name as a slave knight, and to openly question the mental state of the Viscount of the Empire." Scambed shook his head lightly, pulled out his right hand on the reins again and pointed his index finger at Urs as a warning, and then moved the direction of his fingertips to the young girl beside him and explained, "As for Pastor Thea, she is your accomplice, and the suspicion is huge, and this alone is enough evidence to prove it. ”
"Yes......" Urs twitched the corners of his mouth, and suddenly understood in his heart that it would be useless to say anything more, so he shrugged his shoulders and sighed, "Then Lord Steward, I have one last request." ”
"Say."
"The other people in this tavern who have been in contact with me are innocent, they have nothing to do with my crimes, please don't send people to interfere with their normal lives."
“…… Well. As long as they are innocent, I will not. Scambed looked sideways on horseback at Urs's prompt, glanced at the street tavern called Warm House Drunk, built on the side of the street, and then chuckled in agreement.
Hearing a personal response from the head of the Northland court, Urs quickly turned his attention from the tavern next to him and Thea, and looked at him for a few seconds, and then as if his side had chosen to compromise, he released his right hand that held the hilt of the molten iron greatsword from the shoulder side of his back.
Xia looked at Urs's actions, and naturally immediately understood his choice, although she was puzzled and unconvinced, but then she felt that the young man's left hand suddenly stretched out to her side again-
But this time, the young man's left hand was no longer to stop her, but only to find her hand by the touch of the fingers, and the larger hand then gently and forcefully held her smaller hand, the warmth of the hand supplemented by the eyes, and in this very simple way "told" her not to be afraid.
Don't be afraid, it's okay......
I'm here.
Urs took Thea's hand, glanced over at the surprise in the girl's eyes, and smiled confidently at the corners of his mouth as if to comfort and persuade the latter.
Scambed craned his neck, the focus of his eyes temporarily removed from the two of them, casually looking at the flying snow falling like goose feathers in the air and the sunset that soaked the sky before the sunset, the golden white hair on the top of his head and the side of his head washed away by the years and the cold wind on his face interacted with a few times, the two blue eyes given by the orthodox blood of the Holm people blinked in their sockets, feeling that the time and negotiation process were almost over, and then waved his hand to order the surrounding guards.
"Take it away."
The guards received the order, and without hesitation, immediately held their halberds and quickly tightened the encirclement, approaching the two prisoners who looked like they were ready to be captured......
