Chapter 2 - Removing Hidden Dangers

"Brother-in-law, when did you get here?" After being rescued by Verleka and going to the barracks to mobilize a part of the army, Muka went to a high-end hotel in the city of Astyanax under the leadership of Verleka and met Lu Ming. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"What, Muka do you welcome your brother-in-law?" Helping Muka tidy up the clothes on his body, Lu Ming asked with a smile.

"Not really. I'm very happy to welcome my brother-in-law. It's just that you didn't say anything to me in advance when you came this time? ”

Looking at Muka's awkward appearance, Lu Ming couldn't help but smile and pointed behind Muka.

Seeing this, Muka knew that it was not good. But before he could turn his head, a slender white hand slapped on Mka's head, and then he heard: "Mka, you haven't been on the house for three days!?" ”

The aura of terror, the words of danger, and the feeling of familiarity all made Muka feel deep fear!

However, at this moment, Lu Ming stopped the person behind Muka in time to make Muka feel terrified.

"Alright, alright, Sham. Muka already knows it's wrong, don't be angry. ”

Hearing this, Muka nodded desperately, indicating that his worker bee would never challenge the authority of the queen bee again.

In this way, Sham let go of Muka, a little fool who tried to challenge the majesty of his sister, and walked to Lu Ming's side instead, and whispered a whisper in Lu Ming's ear.

"The clan elders have all been caught, but there are some things that cannot be made public, and we can only execute them quietly."

"......" Hearing Sham's words, Lu Ming immediately knew what was going on. It was nothing more than in the mansion of the clan elders that they found letters with the elves and the people of Evennes. It will have a very bad impact on the Hatu family, causing the reputation of the Hatu family to plummet, and it cannot be dealt with casually.

"What a hassle!" Complained slightly, and then Lu Ming walked out of the room quickly, to help deal with this matter, lest Muka be stupid to let someone who can't be trusted deal with this matter.

After Lu Ming left, only Muka and Sham, and Sham's female knight were left in the room.

It may be that he is not used to being with Sham, so Muka is very reserved, which makes Sham very uncomfortable.

However, the two of them were both more awkward personalities, so the two of them were silent there, until Lu Ming dealt with the matter and came back after casually talking to the mother of the three Sham siblings, neither of them said a word.

When Lu Ming came back, he saw that Sham's female knight was about to cry because of this sister and brother, and couldn't help sighing, and said, "The matter has been dealt with, and all of them died of sudden illness." In addition, Mom will let us go back to the Lord's Mansion for two days, and you two will go back with me! ”

"Oh." After a slight response, Sham followed Lu Ming, preparing to go to the lord's mansion in Muka to stay for two days.

Muka breathed a sigh of relief, and then followed them.

Turning his head and looking at Sham, who was a little silent, Lu Ming suddenly hugged her and said in her ear, "Don't worry, everything is with me." ”

"Hmm." Nodding slightly, Sham snuggled into Lu Ming's arms.

-----------------------------------

In the evening, the entire inhabitants of the city of Astyanax knew that the elders of the family of Muka Hatu, the lord of Hector, had been infected with an unknown plague virus for some reason, causing them all to die of heart failure due to the plague. Their children are lucky not to have the virus, and are now being examined in the city's hospital, and when they are sure that they are free of the virus, they will take over the work of the clan elders and serve the lord's family.

After the incident of Sham and Muka, they couldn't help but admire and be puzzled by Lu Ming's approach.

Among them, Sham turned the matter into a plague accident to Lu Ming, and completely solved the matter, and even if others want to investigate, they have to think about whether they will be infected with this plague!

However, Muka was deeply puzzled by Lu Ming's approach, especially the practice of keeping the descendants of the clan elders. In his opinion, cutting the grass and eradicating the roots is the most correct!

And Lu Ming replied to him like this: "Among those people, many of them are the supporters behind these young nobles of yours, kill them, do you think those nobles of yours will listen to you as a child?" Like, the Grand Duke is gone, do you think the other counts will listen to him? Brother-in-law tells you that no! Before Lothric became an earl and advisor to the Grand Duke, all the counts had their own agendas! But because of the appearance of Lothric, they put away the greed in their hearts. With his help, the Grand Duke was able to make the nobles of the entire Ereposian loyal to him! Now those young nobles, in fact, think in their hearts, just like the counts before the appearance of Lothric, want to get more and more power from you, and after a long time, you will be hollowed out. So these true faithful to you and the Hatu family must live, and they will protect you until you reach adulthood, when you will be able to truly control Hector. ”

"But aren't they the children of the elders? How could they possibly be loyal to me? ”

"Do you think that the person I left for you, brother-in-law, is the child that those clan elders focused on cultivating?" Hearing Muka's stupid question, Lu Ming laughed inexplicably and asked rhetorically.

Immediately, Muka knew that Lu Ming did not leave behind those children who were loyal to the clan elders, and those who were left behind by him were basically those who were not valued in the family and were even bullied.

These people are already dissatisfied with the clan elders, and some of them are even resentful, so they will not be in the same league with the clan elders at all, and it is very normal for them to jump out and fund those young nobles to help him. Moreover, the most important thing is that these people are all members of the Hatu family, and basically they will not cause too many restrictions on his rule, as long as he does not mess around......

"I see, brother-in-law!"

Seeing that Muka had understood what he meant, Lu Ming smiled and touched Muka's head, and then was pulled over by Muka and Sham's mother, urging him to have a child with Sham as soon as possible.

Seeing that Lu Ming was being urged to give birth to a child, and when he was speechless and embarrassed, one of Lu Ming's wives, Yuersika, suddenly said beside Muka: "Nepotism when I was young, and meritocracy when I became an adult, this is the practice of the true nobles." But you must also grasp a degree, otherwise even if it is a family member, it will also empty you! ”

"I understand! Sister Ursica! ”

Hearing Muka's answer, Yursika smiled slightly, then walked to Lu Ming's side, and took the initiative to take on the task of supervising Lu Ming and Sham to give birth to the child as soon as possible to Sham's mother, which made Sham's mother like her very much, and also made Lu Ming slightly depressed.

At this time, Sham suddenly walked over from the hall and said to Lu Ming and the others, "The kitchen has prepared dinner, you guys hurry up and wash your hands!" ”

"Okay." Lu Ming, who was given birth to a child, saw Sham, and immediately pulled Yursika and Sham and ran away.

Seeing this, Sham's mother shook her head helplessly, and then went with Muka to wash her hands and prepare to go to the restaurant for dinner.

Meanwhile, in the city of Klimhild in Viscount Siegfried, the House of Tree Viper Sweikes welcomed two guests and their three thousand knights.

This man was Brook Kakaro, the lord of the county of Muspelheim, and Count Loslick, advisor to the Archduke of Raels.

The people of the Sweikes family immediately panicked when they saw these two coming, because these two were not good stubble, and they couldn't have come to Krimhild City for some trivial matter. Therefore, from the reception to the meeting of the head of the family, Colmont, the people of the Swinkis family were all trembling and did not dare to make any mistakes. This is especially true of those who have secretly joined Evenness's camp.

Sitting on the chair next to Colmont's hospital bed, Brooke peeled the orange to himself, and said to Colmont: "You old thing is sick like this, and I don't see anyone here to take care of you, it seems that you are quite miserable!" ”

"Lord Count, don't make fun of the villain, isn't the villain sick, we are afraid of being infected, and we ......" Colmont defended the people because he was afraid of the people who had joined Evennes' side.

"Okay, okay, look at your weak appearance. They were obviously poisoned to make it look like this, but they still spoke for them. Before Colmont could finish speaking, Brooke impatiently stuffed the whole orange into Colmont's mouth, leaving him speechless.

However, Brooke's words startled Colmont, but the next moment, a scream suddenly came from outside the room, which frightened him.

"We're here to help you deal with those in your family who have taken refuge in Evnes." Lothric was not far away, eating an apple, and said, "You must be wondering why the two of us would know that there are remnants of Evennes in your family, right?" ”

"Hmm! Hmmm! Hmm~!! Because of the orange stuffed in his mouth, Colmont didn't ask or answer.

However, Lo Slick didn't need him to answer either.

"We know that you originally asked Lu Ming for help, but unfortunately, the Hatu family in Niforheim also had something similar to your family, and he had to deal with that side, so the people who came were the two of us. However, you don't have to worry about anything, we have a detailed investigation report on everyone in your family, and you will definitely not be able to kill mistakes! ”

"Mmmm......mmmm

"By the way, didn't you say before that your people didn't take care of you because they were afraid of being infected by you? So, use this excuse to announce it to the outside world! They died of illness because you infected them! Ignoring Colmont's shock, Lothric made a horrible offer.

As soon as he heard Lothric's proposal, Colmont was terrified. Because if Lothric and Brooke really use this excuse to cover up the truth about the deaths of those in the Swinkis family, what will happen to him who gets 'sick' first?

The answer is obvious, and that is death!

Muspelheim didn't need a sick man to be a viscount, especially during this time when the Ifa Empire was about to invade. So he must die, otherwise the whole of Musberheim will be dragged back by him, and even Bruck Kakalo, the Count, will be scolded by the Grand Duke of Raels!

Because of this, Brooke decided to do nothing and just hack him to death.

So Brooke stood up from his chair, put his hand on the hilt of his sword, and slowly pulled out the long sword, and slowly cast his cold gaze on Colmont on the hospital bed.

"Don't worry, your title will be inherited by someone in your family for a long time, and not taken away by someone else. It's just that your four sons are really a little muddy and can't support the wall, even if they know that you were poisoned like this by those Evennes people, they still eat, drink and have fun all day long, and they don't have the idea of coming to me to save you at all. So, I've decided to let your brother's branch inherit your title. ”

Placing the sword on Colmont's neck, Brooke smiled and said, "Now, you hurry up and eat this orange!" ”

"......" knew that he was going to die, and instead of provoking Brooke to let his children be implicated, it was better to be obedient. So he ate the orange with difficulty, and the juice flowed everywhere.....

"You're an obedient dog, but you're so stupid!" Looking at Colmont, who had closed his eyes, Brooke smiled slightly, and cut off one of Colmont's hands with his long sword!

Suddenly, Colmont screamed, and there was no trace of the weakness he had before.

"Old guy, in front of me, you are still pretending, you are really not afraid of death!" Brooke couldn't help but sneer when he used his sword to pick off Colmont's hand, which had been cut off by his own sword, and saw that it was holding a teleportation magic device inside.

"Your Excellency... Plentiful... Plentiful... Plentiful... Spare your life......" The sharp pain of the broken arm made Colmont break out in a cold sweat and stutter when he spoke.

However, Count Brooke Kakaro was not a good man, and he would not listen to Colmont.

"I know you're known for cheating, so I've been on your guard for a long time. Moreover, Count Lothric has already obtained information from Lu Ming's bastard that you are faking your illness. Therefore, this sword is my punishment for daring to deceive me, the earl! He looked at Colmont lightly, and once again put his sword on Colmont's neck.

"Your Excellency... I... I... I don't dare......"

"Don't dare? It's not a question of whether you dare or not, it's a question of whether you can do it or not! If you dare to deceive me, you should accept my punishment! With a sneer, Brooke said slowly.

"Your Excellency... I ...... "Colmont wanted to ask for mercy, but Brooke didn't have the patience to talk nonsense with him anymore, so without saying a word, he cut off Colmont's head with a sword!"

At this moment, a knight walked in and reported respectfully to Brooke and Lothric: "Two Earls, now all the people on the list of the Sweikes family have been killed, and the only ones who are not suspicious have been arranged in the hotel in the city, waiting for the will of the two of you!" ”

"If you go and spread the word, just say that I will let Colmont's younger brother inherit the title, and the rest of the people will assist him well and train the army led by Siegfried for me as soon as possible!"

"Yes, Lord Count!"
