- Proverbs

Walking out of the door of the Duke's Palace, raising his hand and giving a slap to the servant who enthusiastically asked if he needed help, Perrin put on his trench coat and looked at the lively hall again, and snorted coldly and walked quickly to the dark corner, where a low-looking carriage was waiting......

Approaching the carriage, Perrin turned a blind eye to the more than ten knights guarding the side, but put away the arrogant look on his face, bowed deeply respectfully, and whispered outside the carriage

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, I didn't do what you explained, that foreign hillbilly not only insulted me, but also didn't have any respect for you!"

There was no movement in the quiet carriage for a long time, and it was not until Perran, who kept bowing, that Rolf's somewhat hoarse voice came from inside

"Did that hillbilly named Leo already choose the Lancasters?"

"I'm afraid so, Your Highness, he is very close to that idiot of Antonis, and the Duke's tone is also very supportive of him......"

"Quack!"

Pei Lan, who was familiar with the second prince, heard this laughter like a night owl, and knew that His Royal Highness, who had always been tyrannical, was already very angry at this time, and his head subconsciously lowered again

After a few seconds of silence, Rolf cursed viciously in the carriage

"My father is really old, and he and my idiot brother still naively think that the gentle method works for these disgusting nobles, and if this continues, the future of the empire may not belong to our Bernadottes......"

Cold sweat continued to slide down the corners of his forehead, and he turned his head and swept the knights around him with a warning look, it was about His Majesty the Emperor and the eldest prince, and he was as bold as Pei Lan did not dare to accept this sentence from His Royal Highness

"Okay Perran, there are no outsiders here"

As if aware of his subordinates' actions, Rolf's impatient tone came from the carriage, and with the curtain shaking slightly, he beckoned to Perrin outside the carriage

"Get in the car, my dear friend, I can't vent my anger with bad news from you!"

A hint of hesitation and struggle flashed on his handsome and beautiful face, and Perrin finally climbed into the carriage at the urging of Rolf, and then, under the order of the second prince, the carriage slowly moved in the direction of the palace

At the same time, there was the sound of clothes being torn and Rolf's impatient panting in the wide carriage......

**********************

In the banquet hall, Leo looked at the Duke of Lancaster who came over with a frown, "I'm sorry Your Excellency, I hope my actions just now didn't cause trouble to you and your banquet, but if I can choose, I will still stick to my approach."

"No, you're not doing anything wrong, Leo" Looking at the door, the Duke of Lancaster said thoughtfully, "Perrin is a man that almost everyone hates him, if it weren't for Rolf's support, I'm afraid he would have died in some dark alley in the imperial capital"

Lowering his voice, the duke's face also brought a look of disgust, "Even his status as a viscount, if it weren't for him to betray...... Hmph, he's simply the scum of the aristocratic circle"

Stretching out his hand to invite him, the Duke led the group to the terrace, and after getting away from the hustle and bustle of the hall, the surroundings were much quieter......

After first glancing at Antonis, who was making trouble, the Duke of Lancaster said to Leo

"But you shouldn't offend him directly, all the nobles in the imperial capital know that Perrin is a mad dog, Rolf's mad dog, being targeted by such a person, although I believe he won't cause you any harm, but it's still a trouble"

After hesitating for a moment, the Duke suggested to Leo, "Recently, if you go out, you should bring more guards and knights, and it will be convenient to deal with anything."

After speaking, he didn't wait for Leo to answer, and turned to Antonis and said, "You have been accompanying His Excellency Leo more recently, if Perrin or Rolf have any provocative behavior, I agree that you can use the power of the family appropriately."

"As for you?"

Before he could look at his duke, Auston gracefully stroked his chest and saluted, "Dear Duke, Leo is also my friend, as your grandson said, His Royal Highness is not yet the emperor, and the Merovingian family is honored to work with you to jointly defend the dignity and treatment that His Excellency Leo deserves."

Smiling and raising his glass to Auston, the Duke of Lancaster touched his beautiful beard and smiled

"Many people envy you for your special preference, but it seems to me that jealousy has blinded them, and your wisdom makes me sigh, I would love the great Merovingian family to be our ally!"

"Of course, it is my pleasure too, Your Excellency! Haha"

Including Leo, the three of them raised their glasses at the same time, and only Antonis was a little inexplicable next to him......

**********************

In the early morning, the wind and snow that ravaged the northern territory showed no signs of stopping, and Anthony, who had gotten up early and had breakfast, was wearing a sword around his waist after getting dressed neatly, and every day he would personally inspect the entire Stormwind City, no matter what the weather, and this was also a habit that had never changed

Just as he was about to leave, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Marcus didn't care about shaking off his cloak and the snowflakes on his body, and said to Anthony with a rare anxiety on his face

"My lord, we have a missing soldier, and to make matters worse, he is one of the members who participated in the battle with the Knights of the Church......"

"What?"

Anthony couldn't even keep his composure anymore because of the sudden news, and rushed forward to grab Marcus's shoulder and asked loudly

"When did it happen? Damn, do you know what that means? ”

Holding back the pain of his shoulder being clenched, Marcus looked at Anthony without fear

"My lord! Now is not the time to be held accountable, those who make mistakes will certainly be held accountable, but most importantly, now we all need your instructions! ”

Marcus first looked at the room and saw that there were no outsiders in the room, and then lowered his voice and continued

The missing soldier's name was Rod, and he was a regimental commander of the champion swordsman, and I asked the barracks, and the last time his companion saw him was last night, and he told others that he was going out for a few drinks, and because he had always had this habit, he did not attract anyone's attention......"

"Let all the remaining Punishment Knights be divided into small teams, go out of the city now to look for them, and do not let any trace go, and at the same time send soldiers to block the gates of the storm, no one is allowed to go out of the city without my orders, etc., find out the former hunters from the soldiers, and let them follow our knights"

Letting go of his hand, Anthony quickly regained his composure, giving orders one by one, and as he spoke, he had already fastened his cloak and walked outside with Marcus first

The Knights and Soldiers, who acted quickly according to the order, caused a lot of commotion in Stormwind City, and at this time there was no need to hide anything, and all the knights who knew the inside story knew what the consequences would be if Rhodes reported this to the Church

In the training ground, Itsev and his companions of Stormwings, who were still training despite the wind and snow, rubbed their eyes that were almost covered with snow particles, and he whispered to his companions not far away

"Damn, I don't know what else I can train in this weather, I can't even see the target in front of me, so I should have a drink in a warm room like this...... Hi, I said are you listening to me? ”

After not receiving a reply for a long time, Itsev looked at his companion dissatisfied, but saw that the other party was staring straight behind him, and turned around inexplicably, he was surprised to see that the knight, who was still supervising their training, quickly rushed to this side and shouted loudly after whispering a few words with another knight who was galloping on his horse

"Soldiers, all of you are in line, Lord Anthony has an order, people who have been hunters, or who have experience in hunting and tracking, should gather in front of me immediately"

"Someone who used to be a hunter, or who has experience in hunting and tracking, will gather in front of me immediately......"

The same words were repeated over and over again, which made Itsev and the others a little nervous in a daze

“…… What's the situation? Is there going to be war again? ”

After looking at each other for a while, Itsev hesitated to take a few steps forward, raised his hand and asked, "I used to be a hunter, my lord, can I know what happened?" ”
