The girl's hair was messy, her frightened face was discolored, her small brows were already frowning, and she finally got up from the floor in a panic, she secretly glanced at the two men in front of her, and quickly stepped back.

Retreat to the corner.

There is no way back.

A pair of crystal clear brown eyes had revealed great fear and uneasiness, and the petite body in the pink and white dress began to tremble, like a quail frozen in the cold wind.

"I'm going to take her away."

Gross said, looking away from Eve as he stared at the bald Crocker.

The tone of his speech was very flat, but the attitude in it was resolute and unquestionable.

It's not a solicitation, it's more like a fact.

"W-don't come here."

When Gross took a step forward, the girl grabbed the scroll on the desk, and several thin pages of paper were stacked together, but at this time she used it as a shield, and this "shield" was protected by her chest.

"Eve, I have been commissioned by Mr. Ignati Woods."

He said to the girl, indicating his intentions. To strengthen this persuasiveness, he also made a point of mentioning a very small thing.

"I also heard him say that you loved strawberry-flavored cream cakes when you were a kid, but now it's been a long time since you've tried those little snacks to avoid gaining weight."

"Huh? Do you know, it should be that Dad really mentioned it to you. ”

The girl relaxed her vigilance slightly, but her little face was still suspicious, and under her long, curly eyelashes, a pair of watery eyes stared at Gross, as if trying to determine his identity and origin.

"You're a mercenary?"

She pressed on.

On Gross's belt, weapons were suspended on both sides, a scimitar and a longsword. In the territory of the Elantra Kingdom, there are not a few mercenaries who are accustomed to dual-wielding weapons, but the combination of a sword and a sword like this is really unusual.

Gross nodded.

And the "bald" Crocker stood aside, his expression still respectful - through the light green curtains, the thin faint sunlight shone on his bald head, and the usual fierce face looked at the girl Eve, but did not say more.

The young mercenary in front of him did not take the bait in the face of those women, and it seemed that under the temptation of beauty, this young man still had extraordinary willpower.

Of course, he didn't know that Gross was already aware of the ingredients in perfumes, and was deeply aware of the effects and negative consequences of using them.

However, the appearance of the young man in the corridor just now gave him another good idea.

After all, this kid can't be allowed to take the merchant's daughter away smoothly. Now it seems that this guy has no intention of paying from the beginning to the end.

Gross really didn't plan to pay, and the debt dispute between the merchant Ignaty Woods and the Dragon's Eye Brotherhood was not directly related to his mission.

Take Eve away and that's it.

He smiled. The girl saw sincerity in his eyes, and after biting her lip and hesitating for a while, she put down the scroll in her hand, glanced at Crocker, and cautiously walked towards Gross.

At this time, Gross finally noticed the name of the scroll in her hand, "The Biography of the Prince".

It seems to be another standard girl's book.

"Let's go, Eve."

But as soon as Gross turned around, a hoarse duck voice happened to come from the corridor outside the room, this voice was weak, and there seemed to be a trace of anxiety in his weak vocal cords.

"Hell! Crocker, do you have any pills there? ”

"And a few more, Master Sidney."

The door to the room didn't close, and Crocker replied loudly. He also mentioned the name of the voice, and as he finished speaking, he squinted at the young mercenary's reaction.

Sidney Collins, Baron of the Kingdom. In addition to this status, he was the third son of Count Maddock Collins, lord of Karthas.

Because of the relationship between the concubine, the inheritance of the family and the territory had little to do with him, and his own talents were so insignificant compared to his two elder brothers, so the young baron, who had just passed his twenty-first birthday, spent more time lingering on the sound of the dog.

In the last two years, the Baron has come to the "Eye of the Black Dragon" more and more often. And the leader of the "Dragon's Eye Brotherhood" gave the young baron a lot of dry shares for free for the purpose of befriending and entrapment-

You don't have to take on any daily affairs, you can get a fixed amount of Rael every month, and you can enjoy the attentive and thoughtful service in the "Black Dragon's Eye" at any time.

Ever since there were a few beautiful maidens here, the young baron seemed to have made the room upstairs of the "Black Dragon's Eye" his home.

Day and night.

One time when he was drunk, he put down his wine glass and sighed from the bottom of his heart:

I don't want to go home, the old man in the family is very fierce when I see him, and the countess always treats him coldly, and only stays in the "Black Dragon's Eye" to feel better. Everyone here is talented, and they speak well......

A wretched creature of the Collins family.

It is only in such a place that vanity can be gained from the attitude of others towards him.

Crocker's heart really despised this baron, the blood of the nobles had an absolute advantage in cultivation compared to ordinary commoners, but at his age, he was only worthy of completing his inauguration, which was no wonder that the Earl of Collins was dissatisfied.

However, because of his status, the members of the "Dragon's Eye Brotherhood", including Crock, still maintain enough enthusiasm and respect for this baron.

Right now, he shouted loudly, and it was a pretty good opportunity.

Gross's expression barely reacted to the name, which made Crocker feel a little disappointed.

It seems that the young mercenary in front of him doesn't know about Young Master Sidney of the Collins family, but it doesn't matter, he just needs to involve the second ancestor who is waiting for death-

Crocker knew the young master's temperament very well.

"Master Sidney, I'm here, I have something to do for the time being."

There seemed to be a faint murmuring voice wafting through the corridor, and Crocker's gaze was removed from Gross's turned, and the corners of his mouth inadvertently appeared with a smug smile again.

"Okay, I'll come over here."

The vague and scraggling footsteps drew closer.

Gross walked ahead, and the young girl Eve followed closely behind him, just in time to stagger past the pale-faced young master Sidney.

"Stop!"

The young baron suddenly shouted, his trembling voice tinged with a screech.

Gross glanced at him, but his footsteps didn't stop—but the young girl Eve was stopped by two outstretched arms.

"Crocker, you still have such a beautiful chick hidden!"

The young baron shook his dazed head, "Looks like I'm going to get a few more small pills......
