At dawn the next day, the mutated old woman and several strong soldiers threatened with torches, forcibly dragged them to the farmland, and nailed them to the sturdy cross.

(The cross of this world has no other meaning, just a simple torture instrument)

The villagers were woken up one by one, rubbing their eyes and watching the scene.

Dawn is the coldest time of the day, not to mention that it is still winter, and the villagers are hugging their arms and shivering coldly at all this.

In their eyes, it was just the lord who wanted to assert his authority.

The sun poked its head out of the mountain nest, and a ray of sunlight shone obliquely, and the old woman screamed miserably, and black smoke continued to rise from her body, which frightened the surrounding villagers into retreating again and again.

The black smoke grew thicker and thicker, billowing and not rushing towards the sky like other smoke, but downward, sinking into the earth.

When the sun had risen and the black smoke had completely disappeared, the old woman hung her head down, looking thinner than before, as if all the flesh on her body had disappeared, which was extremely terrifying.

The old woman was not killed by the sun, but lost the support of the darkness, her already fragile body could not hold on, and the damage caused by the darkness forcibly coming out of her body caused her death.

The villagers chatted in a panic and kept looking at the lord at the head of the city.

Colt said loudly: "Everyone can see clearly, in the future, if you encounter this situation, you must inform me in advance, otherwise, you will be the one who will be killed, and also, if you have been hurt by this old woman, remember to stand up yourself, otherwise you will ......"

Several villagers lowered their heads, their eyes rolled, and they looked around in fear from the corner of their eyes, they had something to do with the old woman, if it weren't for the fact that the old woman was eating chickens too terrible, they even planned to hide this matter forever.

Later, they also personally captured the old woman and sent it to the lord, the old woman was too strong, and in the process, she inevitably suffered scratches on her body.

The surrounding villagers also looked at these people with suspicion......

When Angela saw this scene, she frowned, looked at the cold sun in the distance, and said, "Send some clothes, on such a cold day, sooner or later people will freeze to death." At least let them live, and if they have hope, they won't think about everything. Also, take precautions against ghouls. ”

Colter thought for a moment, felt that it made sense, and nodded: "Dear Miss Angela, thank you for the reminder, I will do it." ”

Angela is different from other crazy wizards, but she uses extraordinary strength, so Colt is willing to deal with Angela.

Angela didn't care, just a few words, she didn't mind saying more, but she wasn't sure how it would end up here, at least there was a strong castle here.

After spending a day here and recuperating a bit, it's time to head to Jeromy's Blackheart Castle.

This time there was a carriage for Angela to rest, and Angela was not polite, put it in the carriage and took out the book, entered the state of study, and began to read.

Five days passed in a flash, and after a difficult trek, I finally arrived at Blackheart Castle.

Undoubtedly, Blackheart Fort is much more than Blackwood Fort, and it is also much more prosperous, there are several villages around Blackheart Fort, and it is also because of these villages that Blackheart Fort can afford to raise so many knights, and there is a market outside Blackheart Fort, which is the bulk of Blackheart Castle's tax revenue, and one of the four pillars that support the entire Blackheart Fort.

Seeing that their lord had returned, the butler arrived at the door with a few servants, and the soldiers opened the castle gate and stood neatly on both sides to greet their lord.

Rich lords are very fond of throwing banquets, and there is no doubt that Jeromy, is a rich lord.

What's more, after Angela's reminder, Jeromy faintly felt that a special period was coming, and at this time, stabilizing people's hearts was the most important, so he didn't care about spending money.

Several knights and their families will attend the feast, and the lords of Blackheart Castle are full of joy.

Although they have to help the lord organize this banquet as a starting point, they will also get food that is difficult to eat on weekdays, which is their greatest happiness.

Jeromy even gave the beautiful women and men who could play musical instruments among the people to the banquet, which was a joy for everyone.

The cheerful music was played, and the beautiful woman turned in a circle, and the skirt was flying, and there was laughter.

Various spices are put in, and the aroma in the cauldron is overflowing.

The fat of the barbecue dripped into the fire, causing the flames to rise.

When the charming cook lady passed by, she was slapped on the ass by a knight, and she was not annoyed, but turned around and threw a wink.

The two strong men stared at each other with round eyes and wrenched their wrists, refusing to give in to each other.

Their thick arms were bruised, fighting back and forth, making others look nervous.

Unwilling roars rang out, cheers and boos erupted from the mouths of the enthusiastic audience.

Amidst a burst of cheers, the victor raised his arms to show everyone his strength.

The loser hung his head, took a sip of ale, and slammed it the table.

Metal wine glasses and hardwood square tables collided with each other, drowning in jubilation.

Snow-white foam splashed on the hem of the woman's gorgeous dress.

Jeromy looked at all this with a smile on his face, and his originally suppressed mood brightened, and he turned his gaze to the table where he started.

For Angela's sake, he found the most beautiful girl in the territory, the daughter of the tavernkeeper's family, and promised to exempt Angela from paying taxes for a year as long as he made her happy.

The tavernkeeper refuses at first, because Jeromy wants to let their cutie serve a witch, and the devil knows if he will be able to come back.

However, under the temptation of paying taxes for a year and the pleading of the youngest daughter, I finally agreed.

Although she is called a little cutie, 16-year-old Avril is not cute at all.

Avril has liked to dance with guns and swords since she was a child, but her physical fitness is surprisingly good, and she often beats some boys to tears.

Because of her wealth, Avril still has access to some books, especially since their family runs a tavern, which often attracts some bards.

Avril grew yearning for the legendary dragon slayer and always wanted to take a trip.

is also because of Avril's temper, even though she is 16 years old, no one dares to marry her.

When she heard that the lord was going to let her serve a powerful witch, Avril was excited.

Especially when this witch is Angela Witch who helps the warrior Earl James kill the powerful monster Graeme, Avril is even more excited.

Lately, she's been listening to the story of the contemporary legend James, and in either version, Angela, the Witch of the Swords, has a very important place.

She is adept at manipulating fire and subjugating monsters.

She is a master of swordsmanship.

As soon as Avril and the girls entered the hall, they saw the witch at first sight.

With a black robe and a black cloak, a long sword hanging from his waist, and black hair hanging down on his chest, his appearance was almost perfect, and no flaw could be found from any angle.

She sat there quietly, with a smile on her lips and wisdom in her eyes.

In the flickering light of the fire, out of place with a group of mortals.
