Chapter 235: Dark Elf Meadowville
Nia scrept cautiously in the direction of the Dark Elf Maiden. But in terms of concealment, all she can do is lighten her body.
Because of this, the dark elf girl in front of her immediately noticed the movement behind her.
"That's ...... Demons? Vigilantly turned around, but after realizing that it was only a child coming from behind him, the dark elf Meadowville secretly exhaled.
In fact, she only came here with the same momentum as she did at the beginning. Deep down, Meadowville had already had a slight retreat.
Being killed or caught was not the most terrible thing, in fact, she knew very well what a dark elf girl like herself meant to human nobles with strange preferences, and she had known these things from her master's mouth.
But this is not the most terrifying, Meadowville was not sent to the human city this time to play, but has an important mission.
However, the thought of what had happened during the day made Meadowville feel irrepressibly angry, neither her own thoughts nor the will she had inherited from her master could turn a blind eye to it.
But at least, Nia's unexpected appearance calmed Meadowville a little, and she began to calculate the gains and losses of the operation in her mind.
If the officers and soldiers who were arrested before were average combat strength, then how high could the highest combat strength be here, and could it be that he would let such evil deeds continue just because of his own momentary cowardice?
At this moment, a soft cough from the front pulled Meadowville's thoughts back.
"That...... The moonlight is so beautiful today, isn't it? Seeing that she was easily discovered by the other party, Nia was embarrassed to find a topic.
"But now the moon is very dim, and there are few stars."
ββ¦β¦β
"Well, does this young lady know me? I don't think I have any friends here. "Until the daytime incident, Meadowville thought that his whereabouts had been very hidden, and if the other party knew him, it must have been because of that incident.
If this is the enemy person...... The position of the two of them was now very close to the City Lord's Mansion, and if someone shouted, it would definitely attract the attention of the patrol guards.
In that case, Meadowville would have to retreat with increased patrols. She was an assassin rather than a warrior, and in the face of an impenetrable patrol network, she could not guarantee that she would be able to infiltrate smoothly with only a third-order patrol.
If she's an enemyβthen knock her out. Meadowville didn't intend to involve too many people in this matter.
"I saw it during the daytime. You're going to the City Lord's Mansion, it's dangerous over there, I hope you don't go there. Nia originally planned to turn around and leave after giving the other party a hint, after all, there was not much intersection between the two.
But after all, this was the first time Nia had seen a dark elf other than Sharan, and out of curiosity, she still asked the doubts in her heart: "It's rare to see a young dark elf like you on the mainland, you shouldn't be here for fun." β
As she said this, Nia noticed that the other person's body trembled slightly.
"That'...... So what, even if it is the highest combat power here, it will be very easy, you can rest assured. As if to embolden herself, the dark elf girl Meadowville muttered, "And this place is so close to the destination, even if something goes wrong, that lord will definitely not stand idly by." β
Although the voice was small, Nia could still hear it clearly.
"If that's what you really want to do, then I'm not going to say anything."
Staring at the other party's pupils, Nia said seriously.
With that, Nia turned and walked into the darkness. After all, isn't she here because of her own will?
"What I really want to do...... Is it? Seeing Nia leave, Meadowville snuggled in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion while reflecting on the words that Nia had left behind.
βββ the King of Huttonmarβββ
It is located in the west-central part of the Duchy and is also the political center of Huttonmar. Although it is not as economically as trading as the cities of Grazli or the West Coast, it also attracts a large number of people due to the unique advantages of the royal capital.
If you look at the layout of the city from above, the walls built in concentric circles divide the city into three parts, the outermost part being the civilian area, the center being the rich area, and the center being the real political center.
At this time, in a luxuriously decorated secret room in the wealthy area, four people in brocade robes were talking.
"Greetings to Lord Jeffrey and Lord Timothy, I didn't expect that the four famous people of the Principality could be here today. So, are you finally going to have a showdown with our poor Queen Skady? β
A young man with a silver mask covering only his eyes, judging by his figure, was about twenty-six or seventeen years old, and said lightly, as if he could not feel the compelling momentum of the three people in front of him. He was the only one standing in the chamber.
"Lord Woolf, I guess it's not appropriate for an outsider to know about this."
Glancing at the masked man who was about to say something, he sat on the left, a thin man named Timothy with a treacherous face and said to an old man in the main seat. Timothy had been dissatisfied with this man when Woolf had brought him in, and this dissatisfaction was exacerbated by this man's attitude.
You know, the conversations in this chamber could even change the situation in the Principality today. No, it will definitely change the status quo of the current principality, Timothy has always been convinced of this.
"Aha, Master Timothy is mistaken, I've been involved in that all along. However, I have always had a question that I don't understand, since Lord Timothy has been so well prepared in secret, why should he be as timid as a mouse, when he can directly attack the royal city, right? β
With a chuckle, the masked man said words that were enough to cause panic inside and outside the royal city.
"Isn't the power of the Skady Queen already hollowed out by the alliance of several people? Am I talking about, 'The Queen's confidant', Lord Geoffrey? β
"Kid actually dares to say I'm a rat......"
"Ray!"
Just when Timothy was angry and wanted to shoot the case, the sturdy old man sitting on the throne was interrupted by a majestic voice.
"Shut up, no big or small, how can I talk to Master Timothy, stand aside for me, and I'll teach you a lesson later."
Afterwards, the sturdy old man Woolf smiled at Timothy and said, "In some places where it is inconvenient for me to come forward, it is true that this boy of my family has always been in operation. Although he can't speak, I can still guarantee that he will do things. β
"I apologize to Master Timothy for the rude of the dog just now. But we should also trust each other a little more, shouldn't we? β
"Lord Woolf laughed, since we are here, we are naturally grasshoppers on a rope. Of course I trust each other unconditionally. As for Lei's recklessness just now, young people are all a bit of personality. β
An ugly smile appeared on his face, but Timothy cursed in his heart.
Woolf, this old fox!
The conversation between the two just now was obviously Woolf's own meaning, and the other party was beating himself in disguise. In fact, when he heard his subordinates' report this morning, Timothy had a premonition of what was to come.
Could it be that the group of subordinates raised by himself are all waste, or ...... Woolf has expanded her eyeliner to that extent. The thought of this made Timothy feel his throat dry.
If this is not the case, it is difficult to explain the embarrassing things in Ivar City that time and this time, it is really too much of a coincidence. Obviously, he had deliberately chosen a small and remote city like Yvar City to secretly raise troops, but it was coincidentally discovered by Woolf's people, is this really just a coincidence?
It is understandable that Woolf, who was already in charge of military affairs, had the army in his hands, but Timothy, who was in charge of finance, was found to be secretly raising troops, which was a big problem.
"In that case, let all those worries dissipate, I think Master Timothy thinks the same way, right?" With an inexplicable light in her eyes, Woolf stared at Timothy and said.
"Yes...... Oh, yes. Sneering, Timothy, who knew that he was wrong, was a little weak by this gaze, and he naturally knew the meaning of the other party's words.
"I hope so, too, so for a better tomorrow for Huttonmar, cheers!"
"Cheers to a better tomorrow for Huttonmar!"
Next, the three old foxes in the secret room began to discuss some trivial matters, and Lei, who was standing aside, did not say a word, and the atmosphere that had been tense before suddenly became harmonious.
However, under this superficial harmony, the three of them are guarding against each other and hiding their hole cards.
After all, there can only be one person who can sit on the throne in the end, right?
βββ the city of Yvarβββ
Nia suddenly patted her head after parting with the dark elf Meadowville. She thought that the adult in the mouth of the dark elves before was probably Shalan, after all, she was the only famous dark elf in the vicinity.
At this moment, a flash of light exploded from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
The dark elf Meadowville, has been discovered.
