Barrett Barbardoro's boast in the tavern:

The noisy tavern is still very lively today.

"Hey! I said, guys. Hiccup~~, I did a big thing for my noble lady! Barrett pushed open the door of the tavern, only to see him swaying his body, his whole body bubbling with the smell of alcohol, staggering against the door, shouting and showing off to everyone in the tavern.

"Stupid pig! Get out of my door! If the hinges on the door fall off, I'll ask you to pay me 10 coppers!" When the old rag saw that it was Barrett again, he angrily threw down the dirty rags in his hand, pointed at Barrett's nose and cursed.

"Hey! Old rag, give me a drink. Barrett ignored the old rag's gaze, but threw the two coppers over with a shout, then pulled out a chair and began to tell the crowd about his glorious deeds.

"There was a war some time ago, you all know it, right?" He kept his feet on the tattered chair and shook his fists.

"Cut, Barrett! You must be drunk again! I'm guessing you're going to say something big again, aren't you? Maybe you went to war, or maybe you provided information to the nobles and wives? Or maybe you actually made it up after you were drunk and unconscious? A drinker said loudly in a mocking tone.

As soon as the voice fell, the whole tavern erupted in a burst of maniacal laughter, some clutching their stomachs, some pounding the table with their fists, and some kicking the legs of their chairs off, and their whole bodies smiling to the ground.

Barrett's face immediately turned the color of pig liver, and he felt so angry that his face burned like it was about to burst into flames. So he stood up suddenly, pointed to the men (he didn't see who said it), and said, "You! Why do you tarnish people's innocence out of thin air? ”

Everyone laughed even harder, even the old rag burst into tears.

"Don't laugh! I tell you not to laugh! Look what this is! As he spoke, Barrett took out a badge from his bosom, carefully squeezed it in his hand, held it high and let everyone see.

"It's 。。。"

"That's right! That's a hunting medal! It was awarded by Mrs. Wolf herself! Barrett said proudly.

"It can't be fake! Or you picked it up! ”

"Humph! Am I Barrett like that? Barrett's loyalty and bravery are visible to all! ”

"I think it's fake! Maybe you stole it! You deserve the Hunting Medal! The old rag scoffed.

At this time, a strong man with a big sword in the back row separated the crowd and stepped forward.

Barrett saw that the big man was obviously a mercenary with high martial arts, and his arms were two or three times as thick as Barrett's thighs, so he was immediately deflated, but on the surface he still had a smug look, but in fact, his calves and stomach were already spinning. "You, you, what are you doing! I'm telling you, it's a hunting medal, a real hunting medal. ”

I saw that the big man also took out a medal from his bosom, exactly the same as this one from Barrett, "I am also the recipient of the Hunting Medal, as you can see, I am Dietas, and the name of the person who was awarded is engraved on the back of the medal." ”

The tavern stirred and whispered. Although the name of 'Lone Wolf' Dietas is not well-known in the Zamir Territory, it is by no means unknown.

"It doesn't seem to me like this lad is lying, and it would be foolish to ruin his reputation just for the sake of bragging." Dietas pointed to Barrett and said to the crowd.

"This kid has always been like this! A despicable debtor drunkard, without honor or credibility! The old rag looked down and wiped the cup, and said in a strange tone.

"Nonsense! Old rags! What about your conscience? I'm just paying for a glass of wine on credit - Master Slava is on top, and I'll pay it back the next day! Barrett said angrily.

"You only paid back the principal, and you need to pay back an extra copper slot the next day."

"You're a robbery! Robbery, you know? This is fraud! It's a crime! This is... Barrett thinks the old rag's bad intentions are simply too much to write.

"Alright, don't argue, Barrett, turn the back of your medal over and let everyone see if it's your name!" Dietas got a little impatient.

Barrett did so, and turned the medal over and showed the part with his name engraved on it for all to see.

The old rag sneered: "Hehe, how many people here are literate? Many people don't even know their own names, so who knows if you stole them? ”

"I know the words, and I can testify to the innocence of this young man, not to talk nonsense." Dietas said.

"Oh, Mr. Dietas." The old rag said in a strange tone, one that was both respectful and careful, and a little petty. "Don't you think you're too pale to prove to this little drunkard, Mr. Dietas?"

"So who knows how to read here?" Dietas asked rhetorically.

"The old rag will recognize it! Yes, that's right, we listened to the old rag tell us! "And there were those who spoke out in response.

"Then could you prove it to this young man?" Dietas said and made a gesture of please.

The old rag did not dare to lie, for he clearly saw that the medal was engraved with the words Barrett Barbadoro. But the old rag didn't want to let Barrett prove his innocence just like that. In fact, the old rag hated Barrett, a visceral hatred that had no reason to do so—he had been a coachman and had lofty ideals of running errands and traveling for the noble lords—until he was struck in the knee. He saw Barrett do it—younger than him, better than he did. Thus, an emotion called jealousy nourishes in his heart.

"There are no such rules here, Mr. Dietas."

Dietas had long seen through the nature of the bartender's villain, so he deliberately took out a handful of coppers, about six or seven, and casually remained at the feet of the old rag.

The old rag hesitated for a moment, but bent down to pick up the copper coin, and then said flatteringly, "Now there is, Mr. Dietas." ”

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Barrett, do you remember what I said yesterday?" Anna asked her coachman with a serious expression.

"Madam, please trust your servant, even if Barrett dies, he will definitely complete the task!" Barrett patted his chest and swore an oath.

"You don't need to die, Barrett. But you have to be careful not to get caught, and even if you are caught or questioned, you have to be careful about what you should and should not say. The Eagle's Nest isn't going to kill you. Gonzalez said.

"Don't worry, my lord, Barrett knows what to say and what not to say. You can say things that kill people, but you can't say anything about what you command. ”

"Very good, let's go!" Anna nodded.

The carriage drove out of the moonlit gate leisurely, and long before the gate of the manor opened, several figures in the darkness flashed away, and disappeared from the new figure.

"Ahh Mrs. Wolfe! What a coincidence! Bolt Burns had been waiting at the door of the Eagle's Nest Library for a long time, and as he spoke, he politely opened the side door of the carriage for Anna to get out of it.

"Mr. Pence!" Anna was not surprised at all. "I'm going to read a book here for a day today, and as you know, I'm fascinated by the knowledge in it, and I hope that Mr. Burns won't hide it, but let me see the deepest and most mysterious knowledge of the Eagle's Nest and the wisest experience and essence of the predecessors."

"You're sure to get what you're looking for at the Eagle's Nest Library." Usain Bolt bowed, then said.

"Then allow me to show you around!"

"It's an honor, sir, to bother you to do your landlord's friendship." Anna held out her hand, put it on the hand of the bent Bolt, and then said to Gonzalez, "Gonzalez! You go and prepare some food, Mr. Pence is here, and my safety must be guaranteed, right? Mr. Pence? ”

"Oh, Mrs. Wolff, you can trust Bolt with absolute confidence on this. However, I think it is better for your valiant squire to do his duty than to prepare for the meal—a small matter that you will leave to me. ”

"Mr. Pence! Not out of distrust of you, but I just want Gonzalez to buy some special food to come back, I have heard that the diet of the Eagle's Nest is very different from that of Zamir, and very different from that of the Golden Plains, and I have always been fascinated by it, so this little thing, I will not bother sir. Anna thought to herself that this old fellow was really difficult to deal with, he was strict in his work, and he spoke well.

"Madame! Listen to your humble servant. Mr. Gonzalez, as Madame's bodyguard, has his honor precisely because of his duties, and if the trivial matter of running errands also needs the honorable guards to do it for him, then doesn't it make people feel that the Eagle's Nest has no manners and is not hospitable? Therefore, I would like to suggest that Mr. Guard should stand guard here, if not to serve Madame—no rat can break down your door, ma'am, and that is glory. "What Usain Bolt said was flawless, watertight, and irrefutable.

"This... All right! Gonzalez, stay here until I come out of the library. Barrett! Go and wash the carriage, and then wash yourself, and if you let me smell your wine again, you'll wait and see, and I'll let Gonzalez whip you hard. ”

After saying that, Anna gloomily motioned to Bolt to take her in for a visit.

Gonzalez was helplessly stationed at the door of the library—accompanied by two Eagle Fighters. Sure enough, it's surveillance! Gonzalez thought to himself.

"Madame, these are the deepest knowledge and mysteries of the Eagle's Nest Library, please watch them again with peace of mind—as for your squire, if he is tired and needs to rest, our Eagle Fighter will be happy to do it for him." As he spoke, Bolt stood aside and looked at Anna with a blank expression.

"Sir? I'm not used to being disturbed while reading. Anna said coldly.

"Your will, ma'am, I am in the side room, and you will ring the bell if necessary, but I hope you will not try to break out, the eagle fighters outside will not hurt you, but the eagle's nest is inhabited by wild griffins." With that, Bolt swaggered away without even looking at Anna.

Anna looked through the window and saw Barrett leave easily, a bright smile on her lips.
