This shadow mage is powerful but abides by the contract, such a person with the spirit of the contract is really rare, and the previous attack and killing also made Sellers lose confidence in ordinary guards, if he hadn't hired this dark horse who became famous in the royal capital on a whim, he would have been wiped out just now.

Although there are nobles and private soldiers on this way south, if there is a "one of their own", it must be safer.

"Hehe, thank you Baron Cyrus, I don't have the idea of leaving the royal capital to go elsewhere for the time being."

Naturally, Morey would not say that his mercenary identity was only borrowed for use, so he naturally dealt with it hahaha.

Rejected again, Cyrus's smile couldn't help but look stiff.

"In that case, let's use this ring as a token! If you need anything or change your mind, you can come to me in the south! ”

Just as he was about to end this conversation, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and then he naturally took off the noble seal ring on his finger and handed it over.

The other party said so, it is naturally impossible for Morey not to take it, the left and right are just a token, maybe it will be useful to this baron in the future?

"Baron Cyrus, we should go!"

A middle-aged man dressed as a commander on a tall horse urged.

After all, this is the royal capital, and it is a bit taboo for aristocratic private soldiers to enter the royal capital after all, although they can prevaricate the past with various excuses, but more is better than less.

"Okay, I'll ...... it"

Cyrus nodded to Morey, then turned to walk to the carriage.

Rumble!

The sudden cold light flashed away, and Morey didn't even have time to react, and a [Flame Burst Arrow] directly blew the noble lord into minced meat.

Although with the help of the [Ice Shield], the [Flame Burst Arrow] did not cause any damage to Morey, but seeing the target he protected die in front of him, Morey's face was already dripping.

"Who!"

Morey looked into the distance in the direction from which the arrow had come, only to see a vague figure drifting away through the woods, and finally disappearing from their sight completely.

Looking at Cyrus, who was blown into a ball of minced meat, a middle-aged aristocratic private army commander in the lead immediately turned his suspicious eyes to Morey.

After all, this meeting place is quite hidden, and the only people who know about it are him and the Baron Cyrus, how could it be so coincidental that he was assassinated here?

So he thought about it, this mercenary who had been escorting the baron over was the most suspicious, and as for why this mage didn't kill Cyrus halfway and sent the baron over, it was not his concern.

Since I didn't receive a distinguished guest from the host this time, it's good to catch a scapegoat and go back.

The middle-aged man made a gesture covertly, and a group of guards quietly surrounded him.

"Looks like we're going to have another fight!"

Morey said self-deprecatingly, but the battle intent in his heart suddenly ignited.

He didn't want to explain anything, just looking at the middle-aged man's eyes, Morey saw a lot of things, it was a look that regarded the other party as an ant, is it meaningful for an ant's defense?

It's just that the commander suddenly shook slightly, showed a listening appearance, and then glanced at Morey in surprise.

"Withdraw!"

Hearing the commander's order, the team members walked past Morey's side without asking the reason, as if the encirclement action they had just made was an illusion.

"It's very deep!"

Morey naturally knew that the commander must have received an order from his superiors and gave up his plan to besiege him this time.

But the adult had been under Morey's watchful eye, and Morey had not noticed any of his actions to report the situation to his superiors.

But just now, the baron was killed by a dark arrow, and the commander who was supposed to be Cyrus received an order from his superiors to retreat.

Hehe, what a "coincidence"!

Green Elf Tavern.

"Mission failed?"

Although the bartender behaved normally, Morey still noticed a hint of surprise in the other party's expression.

It's not that the mission wasn't completed, it's like an accident that Morey was able to come back with all his beards and tails.

"Yes."

Morey looked a little "decadent", and even his voice was much lower.

"Well, don't be too disappointed, there are always failures and successes in this mission. It's the cost of a little comfort. ”

The bartender looked at the frustrated Morey, but threw a bag of gold coins comfortingly.

As soon as Morey took it, it became clear that it contained a hundred gold coins.

"Hush money?"

Morey thought to himself.

......

"Your Highness, the target has been disposed of!"

"Hmm."

"Your Highness, in fact, why do you ......" The butler was a little puzzled, but was interrupted by Bert.

"Well, I've got my own decision!"

"Did you get the thing? Alex? ”

"Your Highness, forgive your subordinates for their incompetence!"

Alex bowed his head in shame.

"Huh?"

Bert is a little curious, there shouldn't be any powerful subordinates next to that guy, as the young master of the Damyan family, Alex should have a lot of power at his disposal, why would he not be able to help a lost dog.

"There is an extremely powerful masked mercenary beside him, the guy who killed the fire demon before."

"The subordinates sighed that they couldn't completely subdue him, and there was still the group of people from the south present, so after confirming the death of the target, I left."

"Forget it, if you can't get it, forget it! Just kill someone! ”

Bert waved his hand and said comfortingly.

"Have you found out who the masked man is?"

"Your Highness, everyone in the royal capital is now investigating that guy, but this guy seems to be a devout disciple of the Night Lady, and he always slips away before we find him."

"Shadow mage? Now there are a lot of mysterious people in the royal capital! ”

Thinking of the complaint made to him by Count Alfonso, who was in charge of the security of the royal capital some time ago, Bert felt for the first time that his father might have thought everything simply.

The allure of this Book of Ten Thousand Laws may be greater than they imagined.

Just some time ago, the Royal Capital Garrison also cracked a tragedy, a group of brain-eating monsters mixed in the Chamber of Commerce, trying to use this identity to get close to the mission of a small kingdom participating in the coming-of-age ceremony.

If it weren't for the playful little prince who secretly ran out from everyone that day, he would have been parasitized by the brain eater by now.

It was still the blessing of Morey, the little prince's new mage friend, that he saw the flaw of the slow movement of the brain eater when he had just absorbed the memory, which exposed this shocking deception, otherwise if he was mixed into the coming-of-age ceremony by these mysterious and cruel impostors, I don't know how much trouble it would cause.

Thinking of this, he wanted to take the opportunity to thank Morey, if this Far Eastern Tiger hadn't discovered those guys, the face of the Holy Spear Kingdom would have been lost.

"Alex, look at how busy Morey has been lately, I want to treat him to a meal."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Alex is honestly a little envious of Morey, how long has he been in the royal capital this time! His Highness summoned him three times and twice, and he was born and died in order to get close to this Highness!

This luck is simply envious!
