Just as Elhoka was beaming and fluttering, one of his subordinates suddenly rushed into the dining room from outside in a panic.

"What's the matter? Looking at your hectic appearance, how can you have a little bit of the style of the First Legion of the Empire? Al Hoka reprimanded.

"The style of the First Legion of the Empire? Look at the way you bunnies eat, you have a fart demeanor! Baron Monka, who had just lost a large sum of money, scolded in his heart. If he could, he would have stabbed this greedy and despicable and pretentious Elhoka to death!

"Lord Elhoka, it's not good!" The subordinate gasped and said.

"Say."

"Virtue ...... The portrait of the Commander of the Commandery of the Drington Army, the "Silver Knight", I don't know which bastard burned it! ”

"What?"

With a click, El Hoka crushed the wooden wine glass in his hand, and the mellow liquor dripped down his fingers. Baron Monka shuddered as if the shattered glass was his head.

"What's going on, tell me quickly! Lord Drington is the hero of Ferreton and the greatest contributor to the Battle of High Rock! Someone had the audacity to burn his portrait, which was an insult to the entire Winterpaw Legion, all the soldiers who had fought bloodily, and the Eisenstein family! I'll show that guy what the Wrath and Sword of the Winterpaws are! ”

"Lord Elhoka, that's right...... Just now I passed by the square with the short-handed Roda and went to ......" subordinates wanted to say that they were going to the brothel to have fun, but it didn't seem appropriate to think about it, so I vaguely passed this paragraph. "I saw a group of people in the square surrounding something. When I went up to take a look, I saw that Master Drington's painting had been burned to ashes. ”

"Who did it?" Elhoka's tone was filled with anger that anyone could feel.

The subordinate swallowed his spit and continued, "I immediately launched an investigation on the spot. According to the testimony of the merchants around the square. There was a black-headed mage who had previously lingered for a long time under the portrait. In addition, he was accompanied by two women, who were described in appearance as being extremely similar to Baron Monka's daughter, a personal maid. ”

Although he was wearing a luxurious winter coat, and although he had grown fat because of his perennial privileged life, Baron Monka still felt cold at this time, as if he was running naked on the top of a snowy mountain.

"Baron Monca. I think you owe me an explanation. Elhoka stared at the short, stocky, trembling Baron Monka, with a fierce glint in his eyes.

The lord of the town suddenly remembered that his daughter Anna had disgusted the soldiers of the Winterclaw Legion this morning and had turned their home into a miasma. So he took the maid out for a walk. She couldn't have vented her resentment against Al Hoka's group on Drington's portrait, right?

"If it was really Anna who did it, it would be troublesome." Baron Monka's forehead was sweating. However, he was not stupid enough to admit it immediately, he just kept shaking his head: "Captain Elhoka." You must be mistaken! My daughter, Anna, has always admired the valiant warriors who kept the peace of Ferreton. Never do anything like that. ”

"Misunderstanding...... I also hope it's a misunderstanding...... Otherwise......"

Al Hoka's language grew slower, his eyes narrowed into slits, and his light flashed.

He drew his sword. A thick crackling bolt of lightning suddenly appeared, smashing the table to pieces.

The table that Baron Monka placed in the large dining room is made of thousands of years of cedar wood in the Cold Mist Mountains, and it is extremely strong, whether it is a knife or an axe, or a smoke and fire, it cannot be easily destroyed. Now he was actually cut into hundreds of pieces by Al Hoka's blow. This frightened the small town lord who was not very bold in the first place.

Looking at the almost stunned Baron Monka, Al Hoka withdrew his sword. I was so proud.

In that brutal battle in High Rock City, facing the abyssal orcs surging like the tide of the sea, he hovered on the edge of life and death several times, and finally awakened his power.

Elhoka's qualifications are mediocre, even if he was already a ninth-level warrior before, he still couldn't perceive the power of life source energy in his body. After making a breakthrough on the battlefield, he finally tasted the feeling of being reborn. After all, things like glory and power are not as important as the power that is actually in hand.

After revealing his hand, El Hoka was very satisfied with Baron Monka's reaction. He just wanted to scare him so hard that he would tremble and his heart would be restless.

The newly appointed cavalry commander was well aware that it was unlikely that the daughter of Baron Monka would destroy Lord Derington's portrait. But if there is an excuse to make it difficult for Baron Monka, why not? This way, you can carry thousands of more gold coins into your pocket.

Moreover, El Hoka is also interested in Anna, the daughter of Baron Monka. Although the girl is petite, she is very well bred, and she has studied in the imperial capital all the year round, and she is a genius and beautiful girl who is well-known in the art circle. Such a woman would never look at a rude military aristocrat like herself.

But now......

A greedy smile tugged at the corners of Elhoka's lips, and he said to Baron Monka, "Although you strongly deny any involvement in the destruction of Lord Drington's portrait, you must come up with evidence. If there's no evidence, then you'll have to be sincere, isn't it, Baron Monka? ”

Although the latter is in a state of fear, how can he not hear the so-called "sincerity" meaning when he has been immersed in the roundabout way of speaking in the aristocratic circle all the year round.

", may the dragon god punish you!" Baron Monka gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart, but he could only soften, "In order to show my admiration for the highly decorated Winterclaw Legion and to clear up the misunderstanding between the two of us, I am willing to donate another 1oooo gold coins......"

Imagining the sight of those gold coins that he had worked so hard to accumulate all his life far away, Baron Monka's heart was bleeding.

"You're a smart guy." El Hoka patted Baron Monka's cheek and snapped, "In addition, I would like your daughter, Miss Anna, to personally escort these gold coins and ingredients to High Rock City. I very much hope that a noble and beautiful woman like Miss Anna will participate in the victory celebration. ”

Baron Monka shuddered.

He had heard a little about what was going on in High Rock City now. Although the war has been won, the war-torn High Rock Castle is now in ruins, with a shortage of supplies and criminals. It was also a temporary home to the Wintertalon Legion. Baron Monka would never want to send his precious daughter to that environment, with a bunch of male hormones.

Anna is Baron Monka's sweetheart. In order to train his daughter to be an excellent lady, he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to send her to the imperial capital to study. Now that this bastard El Hoka has actually started her idea, this has touched Baron Monka's bottom line.

Although the entire Winterclaw Legion is now the hero of the empire and the darling of the emperor, Baron Monka still made up his mind.

"Head El Hoka, my daughter is about to leave for the imperial capital, I'm afraid I won't be able to accept your invitation, please forgive me."

"Oh?" Elhoka didn't expect Baron Monka, who had always been weak, to refuse him. He sneered, "Then it's a pity that I can only start investigating the destruction of Lord Dellington's portrait right away. If there is anything wrong with you in the future, please forgive me. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a man's voice came from the door: "No need to start investigating." The one who destroyed that pretentious portrait was me. ”

Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, Elhoka was startled, and quickly turned his head to see a young man in a mage's robe walking in.

Black, black-eyed, and always a nasty look full of confidence and everything under control.

"Gordon. Freeman! Al Hoka gritted her teeth and squeezed the name out between her teeth.

"Baron Freeman?" Baron Monka looked surprised.

"Freeman?" Miss Glasses, or Anna, the daughter of Baron Monka, who had hurried into the hall after Gordon, stood stunned.

"First meeting, miss. I'm Gordon. Freeman, the one who was about to have a funeral. Gordon nodded at Anna and laughed at himself slightly.

He didn't pay any attention to the stunned eyes behind the lenses and looked at Anna who was stunned, but turned to look at Elhoka: "Looks like you've been doing well lately, Flag Officer." ”

Hearing Gordon refer to himself as a former position, Elhoka was extremely dissatisfied, and his eyes were red with alcohol, radiating a fierce light.

"So you're not dead, Baron Freeman." Al Hoka let go of Baron Monka for the time being and walked towards Gordon, "Then you should value your life instead of doing something stupid that could cost you your life." ”

"Are you threatening me?" Gordon seemed to be smiling.

Elhoka placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, "That's right, I'm threatening you, mage!" ”

He didn't care about squirting the rich smell of wine in his mouth into Gordon's face, as if he wanted to vent all the resentment in his heart. The humiliation of the day at the fortress of Savato, Elhoka always remembered in his heart. Now, for his exploits in the Battle of High Rock, he has been given the title of hereditary baron and the head of the cavalry, and he has awakened his power and increased his strength, and he lives in praise and flattery every day.

He didn't think he had to give in to Gordon again. And the other party's backer Rob. Antello is dead, and the Eisenstein family, which he is attached to, has greatly increased in power through the victory of the war and the aura of Drington, and it is in full swing, and there is a tendency to replace the Antello family and become the grand duke family of the new empire.

In such a situation, El Hoka did not take Gordon seriously at all.

"Mage, you'd better come with me obediently, confess to the crime of burning Lord Drington's portrait, and be tried and punished by the noble court."

"Trial and punishment?" Gordon looked at Al Hoka like an idiot, and had quietly prepared a spellcasting gesture. (To be continued......)
