Verse 57: Impatience is sickness
Marin was standing outside the office door, blown by the cool breeze, and only then did he react - when he sensed danger, Colin's appeared just in time to save him.
Yes, there is someone who is spying on themselves in the dark, with malicious intent, and most likely murderous intent...... Because it is just the jealousy and hatred between the simple students, it is impossible to make Marin feel dangerous, because these students are not enough for Marin to fight.
And the reason why Colin appeared must have been called by his mentor Hoffman Sr...... Well, what should the guru know.
But he also knew that this matter was not suitable for him to know from beginning to end, so there was a situation where he asked himself to talk—not afraid of thieves, afraid of thieves, and Marin had never understood the meaning of this word so deeply as he did today.
Thinking about this, Marin was a little unhappy - but a little relieved.
Unhappy because old Hoffman felt that this matter was not suitable for him to know, and happy was ...... Hoffman Sr. was clearly willing to protect his apprentices.
This is very important, if it were not for the protection of Hoffman Sr. just now, Marin is sure that he must be facing a life-and-death situation at this time.
Who hammered whose head, that's the question.
………………
"The queen is really messy, obviously she is not her daughter at all, but she still wants to manipulate the fate of others, is she still alive three hundred years ago." Watching Marin leave the teaching area, Colin frowned, and he turned to look at his teacher: "Mentor, we must communicate with Lady Anna. ”
"Then I'll leave this matter to you." The old man said without raising his head.
"Hey, why me!" Colin pointed at himself, a question mark on his face.
"Silly boy, you always have to face that Lady Anna's day, Margaret is the child born to His Majesty and Lady Mannyhair, she brought it up with her own hands, she is your biggest rival to marry Margaret, so why not try to face her." The old man raised his head and looked at his apprentice: "Look at Marin, he is not very old, he is much more capable than you, the little girl has almost no place to stand, and if you continue to be so stupid, you must beware of Margaret running away." ”
"Hey! Teacher! You're going too far! I'm not handsome! "Colin thinks this teacher is too much, how can he compare with Marin, he is the number one cutie in the church, cute and able to play, not to mention the same grade, even in the upper grades, there are many girls who like him.
"Colin, people are different, if you don't work hard, the gap and injustice that this fate gives to everyone will expand hundreds or thousands of times, so why not work hard, here is my letter to Lady Anna, telling her that if you don't want her little Faye to become a survivor at a young age, then you need to take good control of Queen Liman and the vicious dog beside her." Throwing the sealed letter to Colin, Hoffman Sr. leaned back in his chair.
Seeing the students in front of him hurriedly picking up the letter, the old man smiled: "Go ahead, Lady Anna usually lives in the other garden, if Lady Anna is not there, you can explain the situation to her maid Lena, she has a way to contact her immediately." ”
After speaking, he closed his eyes: "Let me rest, boy, go early and come back early." ”
………………
"My mom is back." As soon as he entered the hall of the annex and noticed that Lena was alone, her little master, Faye, immediately complained: "Liana, where is my mother?" ”
"Your mother is still in the north, and she will be back this evening or tomorrow morning." Lena was wiping the vase on the table, and said without raising her head, "By the way, Miss, how did you know that Her Majesty the Queen is back?" ”
"Marlin went to my room to get the wine and met old Jason, and when he mentioned the old man and the dog, I knew something was going to happen...... Tell my mother to come back soon, I'm afraid that this mother of mine will have a hot brain and make a move on Marin. At this, Faye was silent for a moment, and she thought that Lena might be talking about an orphan's adopted son, and he would die.
But she didn't expect that Lena stopped what she was doing when she heard this: "This is indeed a problem, I will inform your mother immediately, and then I will go to see Mr. Jason as soon as possible, I hope he will not do anything stupid, I have already placed your potion in the room for you, please don't forget to drink, miss." ”
When Lena left the living room, Faye didn't react - wait, Lena went to contact her mother?
Wait a minute, why didn't my mother come to look for her when she ran away from home, and Marin could contact her as soon as she had a situation?
Hey, Lena, who's the real thing?
………………
The old woman in the carriage thought that this time her husband had come to Fort Carter for the marriage of Mrs. Manihair's eldest daughter—Margaret was also sixteen years old, and she was already engaged to the age of engagement, and the boy named Colin who had been in love with her before should also make him die.
After all, Lady Anna didn't like him either, so how to get Lady Anna to agree to Margaret's marriage to her nephew was an important reason why Lady Lyman came to the city as queen.
Of course, she has a more important reason - Faye, unlike Margaret, she is the eldest daughter of Lady Anna, although she is said to be the second daughter to the outside world, but Liman knows that it is just to make Margaret happy and make her not think too much.
Hmph, they're just uninvited bandit descendants.
But Faye is different, this child has a very high talent for magic, although frail, but still her brother's favored child, Liman's Rood family hopes to be able to make Faye and the first heir of the Rooud family engaged at the same time as Margaret's engagement.
But as soon as Liman arrived, he found a problem - history seemed to be repeating itself.
People can't ...... At least the same mistake shouldn't have been made, so this time Liman didn't relent, and judging by the time, old Jason should have succeeded.
Glancing at the pocket watch in her hand, the old woman frowned, and just as she wanted to stop her coachman, she put one hand on the window, and the next moment, her old butler appeared outside the window.
"Madam, I have not been able to fulfill your wishes, please understand." The old butler, who was loyal to the Morvis family and was equally loyal to himself, fell silent at this point.
Liman was not angry, not even angry, for she knew that old Jason must have said this for a reason, and that a true nobleman should not blame his incompetence on the servants who did things for him.
So she looked up and out the window, "I'm listening to your explanation, Jason." ”
"Ma'am, Kane Dodge blocked me, and old Hoffman called the kid over...... He was his apprentice. ”
Hearing the last sentence, Liman, who was originally a little annoyed, suddenly laughed: "It turned out to be the junior apprentice of that inhumane old thing, if I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have asked you to kill him." ”
"Ma'am, that kid ......" Old Jason stopped talking, and his situation made Liman frown, "Is there any more problem, Jason." ”
"I can see the magic mark on the back of his neck, it is a beacon set up by Lady Anna, even if Kane Dodge didn't stop me, I can't have killed him, the moment he is injured, the accident and protection will directly separate me from him, and Lady Anna will be the first to come to the scene...... From what I know about Lady Anna, I will be killed by her. Jason sighed at this, "Madam, there's something wrong with that kid." ”
"You're Morves' butler, and she's not qualified to kill you, but what you're saying is really interesting, kid...... Is it ......?"
"It's not her illegitimate child, the dominant gene of the Chevic family is elves, and there are also golden eyes, that child has dark black hair, and looks more like a southern Thai, so I think maybe it's the illegitimate son of some nobleman in the country, of course, it needs to be investigated, ma'am."
"Then I'll leave this matter to you, and the money that needs to be withdrawn will go from this card." The real hostess of the country handed a card out the window, and when the old housekeeper took the card, the old lady smiled and closed her eyes: "How long is it to go from the Farewell Garden here?" ”
"Two quarters of an hour, ma'am, maybe it will be slower, for today is the fourth day of the harvest festival."
"Hmm...... I wish Anna was in the annex, so I could talk to her about Faye. ”
Speaking of which, Liman moved to make herself more comfortable, although as a transcendent in her early years, her aging did not affect her life, but who would refuse to sit more comfortably.
………………
Turning her head to look around, Anna found that the xenomorph in her hand was already the last, so she dispersed the flaming sword in her hand, and then threw the xenomorph head in her other hand to the ground, and there was a cheer from this position, and then more people joined in the cheers, and the lady who had just blocked the chaos offensive took the water cup handed by the running medic and drank the holy water in her stomach.
Spitting out a white mist, Anna prepares to withdraw from the battle - her husband should have arrived at Fort Carter long ago, and this time he should give Colin a chance.
Speaking of which, it was also Colin's luck that the kid was lucky, if he hadn't met Marlin's child, Anna really didn't want Margaret to marry him.
Not because the kid was a little clumsy, but because he was old Hoffman's apprentice.
Because the great nobles knew that this child was nothing more than ...... Thinking of this, Anna saw her pet, the golden eagle, descend from the sky, and it landed on her shoulder, and the small letter on her feet was shining, it was news from Liana.
Pulling the small note from it, Anna opened it.
Both Majesties have arrived.
At the first sentence, Anna smiled, it seemed that her sister Liman was really anxious.
Marin is in contact with Jason.
In the second sentence, the smile on Anna's face froze.
Hoffman Sr. asked Colin to deliver the letter through a fixed portal, saying that Jason had waited for Marlin in the hallway and was stopped.
In the third sentence, the smile on Anna's face completely disappeared, and she withdrew her magic pet into the small space unique to mages, and then opened the portal.
Queen, you ...... I'm too anxious.
Anxiety is a disease, and it must be cured.
