Nothing happened overnight.

Roland neither tried to escape, nor was he hostile or resentful towards Akajika and Marquis Saya. It was as if he had been invited as a guest by the Marquis of Sayya, not only did he not have the slightest dissatisfaction with the two, but he still greeted the two very warmly and gently at dinner.

Although he was a little surprised that Roland accepted the fact that he was under house arrest in such a bland way, the Marquis of Saya did not delve into it.

Roland knew that Maleos was a man who didn't like to speculate on other people with malicious presuppositions. It is precisely because of this that Roland is convinced of his judgment of Orwell.

This is the importance of building a good reputation on a daily basis. For example, Roland would never suspect that Marnos saved a person simply by doing good, but if Jupiter IV did the same thing, Roland's first reaction was to doubt his true purpose - did he want to put on a show? Or do you want to train new saints? If it is not impossible that Jupiter IV really wanted to do good today on a whim, in the eyes of those who are familiar with him, this possibility will always be subconsciously ruled out.

But even if Maleos accepted this fact so gladly, Red Tree Flower really couldn't let go.

Although the mountain people are honest in appearance, they always have a little wisdom in their hearts. This wisdom allows them to survive anywhere. Come to think of it, a race that has been accepted and received very well all over the world of Faense will certainly not be able to rely on its mediocre cooking skills alone.

The mountain people think much more in their hearts than they appear on the outside.

Just like when he had met Roland who was exercising magic before. Although it seemed that he was walking in front with his back to Roland. It seems that Roland is completely trusted not to attack him. But in fact, the weapon master's [prerequisite] ability has been quietly activated by him, if Roland decides to sneak up on him, it will be the moment before he is attacked. He was able to instinctively counter Roland's attacks.

The city has been mixed in with a lot of ill-intentioned people. Red Kajika didn't dare to let her guard down at all.

At first, he just wanted to kill a devil who was hidden by Count Orwell. As a witcher, that's his duty.

But he soon realized that it was not easy—just these days, there were so many regular troops coming in and out of Orwell's palace, and it was so brightly lit every night that he had no chance to sneak in.

As a mountain dweller with royal blood. He is also a citizen of Titan, and if he clashes with Karar's regular army, he will cause great trouble. So he had an idea and decided to go to the Marquis of Sayya.

Everybody knows. The Marquis of Saya is notoriously hated by the devil. But before Akajika could tell Marquis Saya about it, Marquis Saya told him what he meant like an unpredictable prophet, and with a wry smile on his face, he told the famous witcher the prophecy that the two Great Druids had handed him in one day, and asked Akajira for help.

The two great druids said. "The black-robed crow will cut off the devil that hides in Ricelo", "An undead spirit will cast an improbable plague on Richero".

Because at that time, Akajika was wearing black clothes. So Marquis Saya thought that the "death crow" was referring to the red oak flower, and the red tree flower didn't think much about it, and went to Earl Orwell's palace after getting the handwritten letter from the Marquis of Saya.

Then something strange happened - he couldn't find the devil.

Couldn't find it anyway. Obviously before he entered the house, he sensed that there was a devil inside, but after entering the house, he could not find it.

He has been dead for two days, but he has not found any clues. In the afternoon of the next day, the waiter who had served him disappeared inexplicably.

It must have been Count Orwell's polite dismissal—after all, a man who had been forced to stay for three days with a letter of introduction should have been rushed. But when Akajika was about to go back to deal with the Marquis of Sayya, he was woken up by a small man in a black robe. And claimed that the Marquis of Saya wanted to find himself.

That's when he realized. I'm afraid that this person is the prophesied "death crow". But when he later grabbed his wrist and ran away, Akajika sighed in his heart.

Because he didn't feel the slightest warmth that a living person should have.

He hurriedly returned to the Marquis of Sayya, explained the matter to him, and urgently discussed how to capture Roland. In order to prevent the grass from startling the snake, he didn't even show anything unusual when Roland used his magic skills, so as not to scare Roland away. In the end, it took a lot of effort to capture Roland.

If Roland was really the one who put the plague, then once he took the opportunity to escape, Richero would be in great trouble. If an undead spirit who has no temperature and doesn't need to eat or drink really wants to hide, Akajika doesn't have the confidence to recapture him.

Just in case, Akajika made a lot of arrangements overnight with what she had learned all her life. He was confident that neither the magic of concealing his body and altering his form, nor the confusing sorcery of confusing the guards, the teleportation of the enchantment, or even the stealth skills of the Stalker, would be able to escape from here. But in fact, Roland didn't want to escape at all, and his arrangement was now useless, which inevitably gave Akajika a sense of powerlessness to punch the cotton. But no problem, even if Roland is not the undead, the undead will always be caught anyway. If you don't give it to Roland, you can use it for him.

In fact, if you want to let Akajika see it for herself, he doesn't believe that Roland will be the one who put the plague.

How can a person who has such a glint in his eyes when he mentions swordsmanship be a person with ill intentions? Moreover, how could a man who is not in harmony with the devil wreck a plague at will?

Taking a step back, Roland did use the magic of the Death Realm, which proved that he was by no means a priest of Cranwo - the aura of decay that came over his face could not be faked.

But, as the mountain people said - just in case, just in case......

Hell yes, just in case.

Akajika sighed deeply and knocked on the door.

Silver strands of hair fluttered out of the door—and to his surprise, it wasn't the butler who opened the door, but Roland.

"Good morning, Your Excellency Arsu."

"Good morning, Roland."

He greeted Roland with a smile: "Have you eaten breakfast?" ”

"Not yet. Lord Maleos means waiting for you to eat together. ”

After hesitating for a moment, Roland asked softly, "Mr. Arsu, will you be free in a while?" ”

"What's the matter?"

Akajika scratched her somewhat messy hair.

After a busy night, he wanted to catch up on his sleep. But if anything happens to Roland, it seems okay to delay a little time.

Then, he heard a sentence from Roland's mouth that made him a little happy and a little distressed: "As agreed...... Can I ask you a question about slashing swordsmanship after the meal? ”

"Ahhh

Arsu nodded happily.

At the moment of nodding, his eyes lit up, and he seemed to see Roland's shadow swaying slightly.

I'm probably too tired. He shook his head, dispelling his delusions.
