Chapter 139: Team (7)

The youngest son of the leader of the Jewel Guild is extremely honored to be an apprentice to a guild member, and is being trained by him, and I have heard that he is quite gifted in the field. His father and mother didn't want to know what kind of talent it was - in their plan, their youngest son was going to become a priest of Rosada, and for this reason they had successively offered a box of rubies, opals, and sunstones to the sanctuary of Rosada, and that the child, who had just turned ten this year, would have entered the sanctuary of Rosada, put on a short white robe, and offered his youth and devotion to the god of morning light.

How, then, could his father make him a despised and despised thief who could be brought to the execution table at any time, he had raised a ransom to buy his son back, he had feared that the thieves' guild would extort him endlessly, as they had done to others, but no, they were horrified to refuse the gold because his son had been favored by a high-ranking guild member.

"Your son is a skilful hand. The thief, who had asked for five hundred gold coins before he could tell him the slightest bit of news, gestured to him: "Skillful hands," he pronounced emphatically, "Understand? He threw six gold coins into the air, causing them to gurgle in the air, then closed his eyes, stretched out his hands, and easily tucked each coin between his fingers and showed it to the merchant: "It took me three months to practice at that time, and your son only three days. So he's favored by adults, and that's a good thing. He looked at the merchant and his wife with that gloomy and ominous look, tugging at his lips like a wild dog and smiling. "We are very caring for our own people. ”

As he said, the guild was so tolerant of him that the merchant even met his son, but to his despair, his son also thought that being a thief was more interesting and exciting than being a priest in Rosada, and he only stayed under the guild's wing for about ten days. The way he dresses is not much different from that of the thieves - he is still flipping a silver coin when he sees his father, unceremoniously snatching his father's purse, ignoring his mother's crying: "I will make you proud." "My name will be sung by the bards," he said, "and every man shuddered at the thought of me at night," he said, giving his mother an impatient look. Stretched out his thumb to wipe away her tears: "It won't take long. I will be back. He assured, and walked into the dark corridor without looking back.

The merchant did not know what to do, he had an eldest son, but he was in weak health, and according to his wife, he was infatuated with a priest of Frow, spending almost all his time with her, and he and his wife did not have children yet. At the time of this, the emaciated and pale woman looked older than her mother.

And the leader of the guild who bought and sold forty percent of the liquor in the White Tower. He had no wife or children, and he was alone, but that didn't mean he wasn't troubled, and the thief would go into his warehouse and take a bottle of wine at will, as they did from taverns and inns, and the guild had issued a list of wine and honey to supply them with wine and honey, including valuable honey, rotten wine, and winter wine, and of course, none of the above goods could be exchanged for a single copper coin.

His storehouse was as empty as a flour bucket that had been infested by rats, and the men were still demanding it from him, threatening him to mix his blood in the wine if he couldn't get the wine they wanted.

One by one, they eagerly told Anrui all kinds of sufferings and poured out their troubles. The nominal owner of the White Tower and the Partridge Hill listened attentively, frowning slightly, worried, and angrily flapping the arm of the chair when she heard of some grave crime, and her eyes were reddening with affection as the men described the sorrow and fear of their wives and daughters, and she frequently wiped the meager tears with a silk handkerchief.

Half of her heart was true, and the blood of the elves made her instinctively hate evil and pity the weak, but the other half of the human blood was much thicker and tougher than the blood of the elves, hidden behind a veil, and the real face was full of pleasure and joy, and the eyes were full of coldness and shrewdness inherited from her human father.

The three men standing in front of her deserved it, and Ann Rui said to the half of the good blood—they had never supported Ann Rui, even though they had sworn to their lord to do everything in their power to make the latter's young daughter the true master of the White Tower and the Partridge Hill, but as the man they feared was covered in dirt, their vows were buried in the dark ground with his broadsword. They first took advantage of Anrui's grief to force her to sign the certificate of monopoly of several goods, and then stole hundreds of certificates of freedom signed by the old lord during his lifetime, which could be sold for ten gold coins at the White Tower and the Partridge Hill, and they gathered around Anrui, and all day and night, offering a free compliment. But when Anrui shakes off her grief and denies several documents in succession that she would never have signed while sober, their resentment erupts, and in the blink of an eye, the three men secretly associate with the former consul of the White Tower, offering him gold coins and loyalty.

But the former consul was a stubborn old man, unwilling to take away the position he had once abandoned, and he disappointed the leaders of the guilds, so they chose the ambitious Demon.

How ridiculous it is that they are suffering from the situation they are in, but this situation has been created by their own painstaking efforts.

And the former captain of the White Tower, he is not a bad person, so when he noticed that a thief guild was looming in his jurisdiction, he went to investigate and investigate, and as a result, he became another sacrifice of the "fine net" after the former archon - he didn't like Anrui, the reason is very simple, like his master, he was a supporter of the primogeniture, he never thought that a woman could run a city or a region well, and he frowned deeply when he saw Anrui.

As for the current captain of the garrison, he is an admirer of An Rui. So when Anrui asked him to come, he didn't hesitate to say yes - he didn't disguise himself as a woman, but just broke his arm in some dangerous action. That reason was enough for him to step into the alabaster doors of the sanctuary calmly - the new Reverend Flo was wonderful, the problem was that their healing techniques were only suitable for themselves, they could make scars or wrinkles disappear, their skin white and shiny, and let bald people grow their hair back, but they couldn't make an arm folded into the shape of a curved ruler.

Anrui's gaze swept lightly over the still chattering businessman, her admirer. Falling on Rosada's followers, no believer in the god of morning light would be happy to live next to a band of evil thieves, whose solidity was not to be doubted - especially when they learned that Dermon had a good chance of killing his father. This is especially true after he framed and murdered his two brothers to get the position of consul.

It wasn't easy to get rid of it, but Ann Rui convinced them that she was an innocent, deceived victim - and she accepted the test with ease, and it was. She did not know before that the former consul had anything to do with Demon in connection with the death of his eldest son. Although she doubted.

Mage Antonio, he was the first to believe in Anrui, who was the little girl he watched grow up, although she was sometimes very stubborn and a little stupid, but in the eyes of the old mage, she was a good child.

In the end, it was the new captain of the garrison who interrupted the three guild leaders, or rather. Two current guild leaders and a former guild leader, the position of the leader of the silk guild has long been taken by a merchant with close ties to the "fine net". "Our time is precious. The captain of the guard said, "Except for the Sanctuary in Rosada, every part of the White Tower is densely covered with the eyes, noses, and ears of the Fine-Netted Guild, and neither the lord nor I can stay here for long. ”

"It's sad," the leader of the Jewel Guild whispered, "You're still the captain of the White Tower's guard." ”

"And Master Antonio's Tower. Said the leader of the liquor guild.

"I'm not at peace there," said Master Antonio, his eyebrows pressed together anxiously, "an apprentice tried to steal my staff and scroll, and there was a shortage of materials for experiments. ”

"I think we already know how bad things are out there. "The new senior priest of Rosada said that he was a strong and pious man specially chosen by the priest of the hall, and that in any case, he had to re-erect the glorious icon of Rosada in the White Tower in a short time, both in alabaster and in the hearts of the people, but he really did not expect that Demont would be so mad as to allow a thief's guild to do whatever he wanted in his city. At the same time, he had some joy that he was not aware of, this was a great obstacle and danger, and it was also a rare opportunity, if he could expel these thieves and restore the consuls of the White Tower, there was no doubt that the holy name of Rosada would once again be praised and spread in the White Tower.

"Yes, we need a solution to this dilemma, not to complain endlessly here. Anrui rubbed her forehead in annoyance.

"We can't move," said the captain of the garrison, "we are watched and restrained - Dermon is the consul of the White Tower, and he does not allow us to act at will, even to exterminate the goblins, and to send a document for him to sign, otherwise we will be regarded as sinners trying to murder the lord." ”

"It's my fault," Anrui said wearily, "I shouldn't have put too much authority in his hands. ”

"You can't be blamed for that. The captain of the guard said, "No one could have imagined that when Dermon was a mage apprentice, I was with him to escort the caravan of the White Tower, he was a little gloomy, but not particularly difficult to approach, and would lend a helping hand to others, and we ...... That one...... Well, anyway, he's the way he is now, and even his father won't recognize him. ”

"I have not been able to find the former Archon in the Mourning Wasteland," said Master Antonio, "or I would have rebuked him so hard that he had raised and taught Demon?"

"It's a matter of the individual," interjected the leader of the Jewel Guild, "just as one of the delicious mushrooms is bound to contain poison, and his soul is bad." ”

"Can't we deprive him of his power and imprison him?" said the former head of the Silk Guild - who would prefer Dermon to die or be exiled if possible, but he knew that Dermon was still the husband of the lord and the father of the next heir, "The White Tower and the Partridge Hill were originally yours," he said, looking at Ann Rui, "you have the right to do so." ”

"Fine mesh. An Rui said.

These two words made the room quiet at once.

"I've never heard of such a guild before," said the captain of the guard, "so secretive, so powerful, so evil, it seems to have come out of the abyss." ”

"They won't allow us to do that," said Master Antonio, "and we must hit it in one hit, or they might kill Anrui first." ”

"Can you get her out first?" said the captain of the guard.

"Yes," said Master Antonio, "but I can't transfer the entire White Tower. The captain of the garrison was silent, they had been afraid of Dermon, and they had not been able to eradicate this stubborn cancer in the first place, but had allowed it to grow until it became so entrenched that you could uproot it, but that might destroy the entire White Tower—or maybe they couldn't do it now.

"Will they do that?" asked one of the merchants, timidly asked, since the White Tower had their family, they couldn't imagine what it would be like to leave here.

"Someone gave me an idea," said Anrui, "maybe you'd like to hear it." ”

Asmodeos, the little devil, Demund thought he had complete control over this reluctant, arrogant servant from the bottomless abyss - Anrui didn't know much about this, not every mage could get a little devil to be a pet, but as far as she could see, Asmodeos had not been as clawed and fangs as Demun boasted before her. It still knows what Demon is doing, it knows when and where he is doing, it disappears in front of her for a while, it gets her information, secrets and some evidence, which Demon never finds out.

The little devil was more useful than anyone standing in front of her, and Ann Rui decided to try its suggestion - but not completely, or rather, twisted and rebellious. (To be continued......)
