Gordon's mage's hand deftly tugged at the maid's ankle.

If it were a professional fighter trained in footwork and movement, then Gordon's little trick would be useless. It's a pity that the maid is just a layman, so she fell to the ground all at once without any suspense.

Ms. Bishop's chilling blade followed, resting on the maid's white neck.

"Gordon, let me take care of it. I'm very interested in this girl. Ms. Bishop said.

Gordon nodded, happy to be a bystander. He has no interest in turning the fight with the other party, so it is better to watch the show.

"Name."

“…… Angeli ......"

The maid lay on the cold mud floor, feeling the cold chill coming from her neck. She looked up and saw the woman with the sword looking at her condescendingly. Although Ms. Bishop's tone was flat, Angeli always felt that this woman's eyes, as well as the momentum that emanated from her body, had a majesty that could not be refused.

So despite the resentment in her heart, she honestly said her name.

Angeli ...... Pretty nice name. Ms. Bishop withdrew her sword, flicked it away, and lifted the maid's dagger into the distance.

It was a bargain bought from a street blacksmith and worth no more than three silver coins. Gordon couldn't laugh or cry at the thought that this girl had used this kind of rag to assassinate herself.

"I remember you appearing at the Noble Assembly as Drington's valet. You and your parents are mountain dwellers living in the Cold Mist Mountains, and join the autumn hunting team as guides. But because of the demon toxin in his body. Your parents died, and you were the only one who was taken in by Drington. Leaving the Cold Mist Mountains, right? ”

Ms. Bishop had met each other at the Assembling of the Nobles and knew her name as Angeli. The reason why she asked knowingly was to grasp the initiative of discourse, but to test her will to resist.

If the maid had lied or didn't open her mouth at all, I'm afraid it would have been a bit of a problem.

Now...... The personal guard of the dignified Lord of Scepters, Teresa who terrifies her enemies with her swordsmanship. Ms. Bishop, can't you deal with a little girl in a mountain village?

"You're right." Angeli pursed her lips stubbornly. But her trembling shoulders had betrayed the tension in her heart.

"At the meeting of the nobles, I have already said that the decision to leave behind the poisoned in order to speed up the march was made by collective deliberation of the leadership, and not the responsibility of Gordon alone. Why do you insist on seeking revenge on him? ”

"You're shielding him! Master Drington has said that Gordon is an evil mage and is the culprit! ”

Ms. Bishop was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "Then, I am also an accomplice of Gordon, an evil mage, don't you hate me?" ”

"The dragon god teaches us to be forgiving. You're just being seduced by that evil mage. I won't blame you......"

Gordon, as an observer, has been affected several times in the conversation between the two women. This feeling of being shot while lying down is really helpless. But he didn't expect it. Angeli turned out to be a faithful Bahamut.

If you have faith, many things will be easy to do.

Sure enough, just as Gordon had speculated, Ms. Bishop glanced at Angeli's crude dragon god pendant around her neck and said, "Since you believe in Lord Dragon God." Then you should know. Gordon and I both communicated with the dragon god at the assembly of nobles. You should know that we are not lying. ”

"Lord Earl Thompson and Lord Baron Joshua have also passed the Holy Light Ruling!"

"That's because they're wearing a magical item that blocks the detection of divine powers. After the Earl of Thompson confessed. It's all gone. ”

"Then it's possible that you're wearing this magic item too." Angeli is unrelenting and unyielding.

Ms. Bishop continued to patiently explain: "Do you have proof? Angeli, the dragon god teaches us that we can't just speculate on others with malice, have you forgotten? ”

The maid was speechless.

She is just a peasant girl born in the mountains, with a simple personality and simple experience, how can she argue with Ms. Bishop, who has a deep experience.

Angeli's heart was already shaking. But she is still unwilling to give up what she has believed in for a long time, so she can only keep numbing herself.

"No, Lord Darlington is a good man, he won't lie to me...... Lord Darlington is a good man, he won't lie to me......"

"Is Derington a good guy?" Ms. Bishop sneered and said, "Simple girl, do you think that he is a good person when he takes you in?" The world is very complicated, and those who do good deeds are not necessarily good people, and those who do bad things are not necessarily bad people. ”

"You're lying! Lord Drington is the most merciful, kind-hearted man I have ever met, with the true chivalry of Ferretton. Angeli's fair face flushed.

"I'm afraid he's still the most handsome man......," Ms. Bishop said, turning her head to look at Gordon.

The meaning is clear: you guys are not as handsome as Drington, and you can't fool the little girl. That's the gap.

Gordon shrugged, feeling innocent.

Ms. Bishop broke through that little bit of caution, and the crimson on Angeli's face quickly spread: "No, I don't have any wrong thoughts about Lord Drington. I knew I wasn't worthy of him in my own right. I just want to be there for him and help a little bit. ”

"So after his plan to unite with Earl Thompson to deal with Gordon failed, you can't bear it?" Ms. Bishop shook her head, "Unfortunately, he's not the Prince Charming you think he is. This guy is thoughtful and does things well. Although the Earl of Thompson was convicted, he had completely left himself unimplicated. ”

"Lord Drington is not the kind of person you say you are!"

"Really?" Ms. Bishop smiled triumphantly, "Although you trespassed into Rainbow Springs Manor with the intention of assassinating a nobleman, it is a capital crime. But what happened to you is, after all, indirectly caused by us, so I'll put you back. Little girl, shall we make a bet? Guess how Drington will treat you. ”

Angeli had a confused look in her eyes. She had been impulsive and had come to assassinate Gordon, but she had never thought about the consequences.

"If Drington. Feng. Eisenstein was as benevolent and compassionate as you might think, an exemplary knight who would not hold you accountable for your audacious actions, but in order not to implicate the family, he would give you a sum of money to quietly leave and start a new life...... However, this is very unlikely. Most likely, he fears that the Lord of Wands will pursue him and be suspected of being behind it, so he will order the guards to take you down and send you to this manor to be left at my disposal. ”

"I don't believe it!"

"We'll see." Ms. Bishop waved her hand and motioned for Angeli to leave on her own.

After Drington's maid left, Gordon finally couldn't help but ask, "Ms. Bishop, what are you spending so much time trying to convince an insignificant maid?" ”

"Don't you see, this girl is different?"

Gordon thought for a moment and shook his head.

Angeli has beautiful facial features and looks good. For those aristocrats with special tastes, this fresh and simple mountain village girl does have a different kind of attraction. Other than that, though, Gordon didn't show her anything special.

"Do you think that a girl with an ordinary body and no combat and infiltration training can enter Rainbow Springs Manor and assassinate you without being revealed?" Ms. Bishop asked.

Logically speaking, this is impossible. But Angeli did.

The defense system of the entire Rainbow Springs Manor was designed by Ms. Bishop. Staffing, patrol routes, rotation times, and more are almost flawless. And the manor guards were also trained by her personally. She knows the strength and responsibility of those guards very well. Lord Wandlord has many enemies, but since the establishment of Rainbow Springs Manor, there have been very few assassins who have managed to infiltrate. But today, a little maid did what many veteran assassins didn't.

"There's a special potential in that girl. I'm a warrior and can feel it. If she cultivates carefully, her future achievements may not be inferior to Faria. ”

This assessment of Gordon feels exaggerated. However, Ms. Bishop didn't know that Faria had the blood of a silver dragon in her body, otherwise she would never boast like this.

"If you want to be a teacher and teach swordsmanship, there are many suitable candidates. For example, my sister Xie Ona...... Why set your mind on a maid who was loyal to Derington? ”

Ms. Bishop shook her head and said, "You're a mage, you don't understand. I like Xie Ona very much, but her martial arts skills are not the same as mine. She is very talented, and if she finds a famous teacher, it is not impossible to become a legendary warrior in the future. I can't delay her. ”

Gordon knew that Xie Ona's strength was definitely outstanding among her peers. But become a legendary warrior...... This goal is also too far away.

"It's a shame that you're still her brother, and you know so little about your sister!" Ms. Bishop gave Gordon a fierce look, "Young men are in need, I understand. But don't spend your energy on other women every day. Sheona is your sister, the closest woman in the world besides your mother. You have to take good care of her and take care of her. ”

In the face of Ms. Bishop's teachings, what could Gordon say, he could only nod yes.

Immediately, Gordon said with some concern: "Madam, if Angeli is as you say, there is infinite potential. So how about you put her back like that? If something happens and she can't defuse the hatred in her heart, she will become a tough enemy when she grows up in the future. ”

"I know the way you mages think. Always try to prevent it before it happens, and for the sake of safety, to eliminate the threat in the first stage......" Ms. Bishop sighed, "After all, part of the blame for what happened to her parents. Do you really want to have her arrested and thrown into prison? ”

Gordon knew what those jailers were. Angeli, a civilian with a bit of grace and no backstage, is put in prison, and I am afraid that life will be worse than death.
