Lockhee was a man of wood, he was not good at communicating with people, but he had a great skill at domesticating hounds, and for many years his apprentices could not even learn what he was capable of, and he was very complacent about this - he was gifted, and he was irreplaceable. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

People called him Rock the Dog Trainer, and he was very unhappy with this title, because it did not highlight his innate talent, and he gave himself the nickname "Dog Whisperer", but he was unable to convince others to adopt it because of his poor communication.

In addition to feeding and training the hounds every day, the brutal Lockhee was fond of indulging his vicious dogs to tear to shreds those who dared to disobey his commander—he had almost no desire, and he had always enjoyed Renault's trust, with the only desire that the commander would give him more pathetic traitors to entertain him...... And not to those obscene and shady inquisitors.

When it comes to torturing people, he dismisses torture and believes that only the bite of a pack of dogs is the most wonderful means of pleasure.

Lately, his hounds have been flaring up in a frenzy, and when a pale-faced red-clad elite comes to check his loyalty to the commander, he almost can't control them...... The members of the Red-Clad Elite are all people Renault trusts, and he will never hurt them, so he even kills the most screaming hound in front of the Red-Cloaked Elite as a sign of loyalty.

However, his loyalty did not seem to be sufficiently rewarded, and Renaud personally summoned him and asked a whole host of questions that he had no clue...... Like him and that damn traitor Aaron? Mograine's interactions, such as his knowledge of how the mysterious portal worked, and his opinion of the simple-minded hunk Herod.

He was not stupid, he knew that Renault was suspicious of himself, and the use of private inquiries also proved Renault's trust in him...... Lockhee was somewhat moved, and he wanted to firmly deny the frivolous accusations and show his loyalty.

Unfortunately, he was not good at words, and his master was suspicious of everything, so he was separated from his lovely hounds and locked up alone in the interrogation room he hated the most.

No one came to interrogate and torture him, but he could no longer harness the hounds to hunt down traitors for the commander, and Lockhee was sad about this.

……

Renault had more and more difficulty sleeping, and by the dim candle he buried his head in the pile of papers searching for the truth - he began to doubt the people around him, many of whom had recently become abnormal...... Sick leave, slipping away, being in a daze, some people are blinking all the time, as if their eyes are very dry...... Renault understood these manifestations as resentment against him.

He could only console himself that it was probably the change of seasons that had made them sick.

What made him even more troubled was that the list of reports sent by the secret agent was getting more and more chaotic, and many of them pointed to his henchmen, who felt that someone was deliberately playing tricks, but he didn't dare to guarantee that his henchmen were really fine...... Perhaps that's a good thing, it's better for his men to bite each other than for them to stick together quietly.

Herold suddenly kills the inquisitor and flees after confessing, leaving Renault to doubt his confession and implicate more people - is the loyal Loksh really that loyal? Is Duane, who has been hiding in the library and not going out, really not Aaron's sympathizer?

You know, Duane is an advisor to the Mograine family, and Renault can't figure out if he will support Arlen - by blood, Arlen is the first heir to the title of Duke of Mograini.

The thought of Aaron made him even more miserable...... It was a child he had brought up since he was a child, but he once turned against him because of his upright character, and all of Aaron's accusations were true, but he wanted to kill him for his own benefit.

He's like his son.

This affection was not enough for him to abandon everything, or even put Whitemayne in danger, for her sake he could destroy humanity...... But this affection was enough to keep him awake at night.

All are going to be against him! His father! His younger brother! His nephews and nieces! And his men!

Renault tore the papers in front of him to shreds, and after his irritability had eased a little, he picked them up from the ground and struggled to put them together, considering whether to send a team of soldiers across the portal to hunt down Aaron and the old undead who were pretending to be crazy, but there were not many people he could fully trust.

As the day approached, Renault decided to send sixty of his most loyal men to hunt down Aaron, replacing all the gatekeepers by the way.

In the end, he simply chose who he was to be imprisoned and censored based on his instinct - his instinct was always that those who had no suspicion about him were traitors, and those who often took time off to slip away were retained.

Whitemane walked into the room, and she stood beside Renault and took his hand.

Renault finally felt a little comforted, and he silently enjoyed a rare moment of silence before asking about Loria much later.

"She looked scared." Whitemane recalled Loria's performance and the guard's report, "Occasionally, there would be requests for food. ”

With a sad look on his face, Renault said, "Try to satisfy her...... Do you think she will plead guilty in a public trial? ”

"Whether or not she pleads guilty doesn't affect our plans." Whitemayne thought for a moment and replied, "As long as there is a public trial, it can damage her reputation, and she has little influence in the first place, and it is impossible for her to lead the opposition against us in the future...... However, Duane controlled too much power, and many spellcasters obeyed his orders. ”

Renault nodded in embarrassment, Duane had been an advisor since he was younger, and they had a long friendship...... It is impossible for Duane to willingly hand over the power in his hands.

"We're in a war, and wars always kill people." Whitemane squeezed Reynolds' hand, "All we do is to protect ourselves, think about the difficult days of the past, if you don't have strength and power, you can only suffer misfortune." ”

She seemed to recall the brutal murder of her parents, and the grim gaze that old Mograini looked at her after Renault's marriage proposal failed...... She grabbed Renault's hand harder and harder, and continued, "Those who stand in our way must be eliminated...... I know your feelings for Loria and Duane, and we can lock Loria up and let her live without food and clothing, or we can give Duane a job to concentrate on his magic. ”

Such a future sounds good, but the parties may not be happy to accept their arrangements, and what will happen in the process of forcing the parties to obey?

"I see." After a little consideration, Renault came to a conclusion, and he decided to solve the simplest problem first, "I will arrange for someone to start preparing for the trial...... Just two days later. (To be continued.) )
