"What a filthy rat, you're nothing more than a pawn in the eyes of Earl Nelson Gnant, oh no, maybe not even a pawn." The man sighed lightly, and after withdrawing the long sword in his hand, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and carefully wiped the blood on the sword, but when he was about to withdraw the long sword back into its scabbard, his expression suddenly froze, and his vigilant eyes scanned the surroundings.

"Who? Come out! ”

The cold scolding voice made Rita, who was standing not far away, slightly stunned, especially when her eyes looked at her, which made her frown directly: Is this exposed?

Thinking like this, Rita raised her feet and wanted to walk out, but she didn't want to see a man in a black cloak walking out of a dark alley in front of her, if only in terms of height or size, it should be a man.

"Who are you?" The man stared at the cloaked man in front of him, his voice sounding hostile.

"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that you seem to know a lot of things, so ...... Come with me! Before the deep voice fell, the cloaked man rushed straight forward with a single lunge, obviously preparing for a quick victory. Seeing this, it was naturally impossible for the man to sit still, and he dodged the cloaked man's assault with a flash.

"I didn't expect your strength to be bad."

The man in the cloak stood in place and watched the man take a few steps back, his voice with a hint of praise, but the words fell on the man's ears and seemed extremely harsh: "If you want to fight, you can fight, where is there so much nonsense!" ”

It seemed that he knew that it was impossible for him to escape, so the man did not retreat, but advanced, holding a long sword and stabbing directly at the cloaked man.

"You should know it's useless." The cloaked man's voice smiled faintly, grabbed the man's wrist while leaning sideways slightly, and then suddenly heard a "click" sound, and then the long sword in the man's hand fell to the ground with a "clang", "So it's better to surrender, as long as you say something valuable, I'll let you out of here, how about it?" ”

"Don't think!" The man gritted his teeth and glared at the cloaked man hatefully, if his gaze could kill, I am afraid that the cloaked man would have been torn to pieces.

"I'm sorry, but that's not a question of whether you want to or not." easily blocked the man's other sneak attack palm, and then grabbed it directly in his hand with a reverse grip, followed by another "click" sound.

"Actually, I admire you." Both hands let go at the same time, and then the man in the cloak directly pushed the man away from his body, "Both wrists were broken, and this pain was not silent, if it wasn't for the enemy, I would like to make friends with you." ”

"Heh, I don't want to be friends with someone like you who doesn't even dare to show his face." The man hung his wrists and sneered, his body trembling from time to time directly indicating the pain he was now suffering.

"That's not exactly, but do you want to continue to resist in your tone? You probably know that there is no point in doing this, right? ”

"So what?"

"So tell me what you know, and I can not only have someone heal your injuries, but I can even give you an additional sum of money and send you out of the Duchy of Evel, this deal should be good enough, right?" The man in the cloak continued to bewitch, and when the man heard these words, the expression on his face was faintly loose.

"Well, in that case, I can tell you everything I know, but you must swear to keep me safe after I've said all." Now, the man is completely out of the way, after all, the huge gap in strength makes him have no ability to fight back, if he doesn't want to continue to suffer senseless pain, then there is only one way left to die except to say everything. It's just that he also understands that it is impossible for the person in front of him to make him commit suicide, so he simply let go of this unrealistic plan.

"Well, I swear, I swear to God with my soul that as long as the person in front of me says everything he knows and is true, then I will do my best to protect his safety, otherwise my soul will go to hell." The two pointed to the sky and swore an oath, and then the man in the cloak looked at the man again and said, "How?" ”

"Yes." The man nodded, and then changed his words again, "But it's not convenient to say here, you can find a ......"

The voice stopped abruptly as before, and the pain in his back made the man's eyes widen, and then he fell to the ground without saying a single syllable.

"What people!" The black shadow flashing on the roof made the man in the cloak raise his feet and wanted to catch up, but the next second, he directly turned back to the man's side and squatted down, "This is ......"

Looking at the black blood oozing from the man's wound, the man in the cloak instantly came to his senses, and then sighed faintly: "Although I thought that I could end it early by coming in person, I didn't expect the other party to leave a hand, it seems that this time I really ran into hard stubble." ”

"Sure enough...... Well, the one over there. After searching the man's body without success, the cloaked man suddenly raised his head, "Are you going to leave these days?" After watching it for so long, you don't come out and say something? ”

The unclear words made Rita, who was just about to turn around and leave, stunned slightly, and then looked at a pair of eyes hidden in the dark, needless to say, Rita already knew that she had already been discovered by others.

"When did you know I was here?" Rita slowly walked out of the darkness and looked at the cloaked man's eyes full of doubt.

"Naturally, from before I showed up." The man in the cloak replied lightly, and then said something that made Rita a little speechless, "Another thing to add, that person actually found you at the beginning, but I ran out before you." ”

"...... "So it's not just one person, but both of them have found her?" So what did she squat for half a day?

"Can I ask a question?" After a brief moment of silence, Rita took a deep breath and stared at the cloaked man.

"Please."

"Your identity, I'm curious about who you really are."

The man in the cloak was slightly stunned, obviously he didn't expect Rita to ask such a question, after all, generally speaking, the first question after eavesdropping on the bag should not be "How did you find out"?

"What? Can't say? Still is...... Can't? Seeing that the man in the cloak was silent, Rita raised her eyebrows directly, I don't know why, she always felt that the person in front of her had seen somewhere, especially the voice that spoke faintly gave her a sense of familiarity.

"It's not that I can't say it, I don't dare, it's just that I don't think it's necessary, but if you really want to know......" As he spoke, the cloaked man took off the hood on his head, and then a smiling face broke into the center of Rita's vision in the moonlight, "Long time no see, Princess Rita Evel." ”

"Sure enough, it's you...... Butler Navis Fox. ”

"What? You don't seem to want to see me at all. Seeing Rita let out a long sigh, Navis quickly walked over, but the tone full of disgust made him twitch the corners of his mouth.

"It's good that you know, after all, your level of smirk is uncomfortable to look at."

"......" How did he feel as if he had heard this sentence somewhere?

"Okay, let's get down to business, what exactly does your Highness want to do? With his attitude when they first met before, he probably wouldn't have liked someone else in such a short period of time, right? Rita looked at Navis, more like she was interrogating than asking, especially the blue-white eyes that didn't blink, which put a lot of pressure on Navis.

"There's about that...... I don't really know what His Highness wants to do, but it was not His Highness who proposed the marriage at the beginning, but the ...... in the Imperial Palace."

"You mean...... Elias Olnice? Rita frowned, in fact, she knew a lot about the uncertain temperament of this monarch, after all, she was a person who had been related to Xiao Yueluo, and she had lived in the empire for such a long time, even if she didn't deliberately inquire, she could know more or less some news.

"That's him." Navis nodded, his voice sounding a little low, "When this engagement first began, not only us, but even His Highness didn't get any news. ”

"You're defending him?" Rita hooked her lips, that smiling look couldn't help but make Navis swallow her saliva, and she had such an expression, last time, it was because she didn't know her very well when she first met, so she suffered a lot of losses, of course, Navis also understood, I'm afraid that even if he understands the character of the person in front of him, he can fall into the pit unconsciously, after all, the "strength" gap is there, and no matter how much you guard against it, it is a futility.

"You...... You seem to be scared of me, huh? The look on Navis's face fell into his eyes, and then Rita suddenly rushed in front of him, still smiling.

"If you hadn't prepared to dig a hole for me at any time, I wouldn't have been able to do that." The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Navis leaned back, his eyes full of wariness.

"Oh~ is that so?" Rita's words dragged on for a long time, and the curve of her body almost clung to Navis's body, along with the scent that belonged to a girl alone......

"Miss Rita Evel, please respect yourself." Suddenly, Navis took two steps back, and the clear gaze made Rita pout: "Cut, it's boring, I wanted to see how determined you are." ”

"My determination? What do you mean? ”

"You don't know? Or are you deliberately playing dumb? Rita tilted her head, but the rhetorical question made Navis frown deeply.
