Martin and the others walked into a booth in the restaurant and watched the five people sit down, smiling with hospitality on their faces. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info But the inappropriate smile makes everyone's hanging heart even more uneasy.

"I'm sorry if I'm here to make people feel uncomfortable. "I'll be waiting outside the door for Mr. White to negotiate, and during this time the other guests will be able to choose as much as they like." I would recommend the vegetable soup and rye bread, they are so delicious that you might think. If you're looking for some wine, whiskey and a wide selection of wines are in stock. ”

Ogast interrupted: "There is no need to talk privately, I believe anything can be explained here." ”

"I know that Mr. August has a lot of confidence in the cohesion of this small team, but maybe I have to insist on a private conversation, and please don't hold a grudge if I am offended," said Martin. ”

Augst turned to Klinos in the hope that he would be able to make his choice.

Clinos said, "I'll have a good talk with this knight, privately......"

Ogst said disappointedly, "As you wish." ”

As the others watched Clinos and Marcellus walk out of the room, August complained faintly:

Marcellus ...... This man is the most hated person in the Empire. ”

Abel wondered, "If so many people hate him, why is he still standing here?"

"He has the handle of a lot of people, and his eyes are all over the land that has not been flooded. Noah said.

"What is the handle by which a man can be firmly controlled, like a bony beast in a cage?"

"Many of my friends. Noah muttered, "Some things are man's fatal weakness......"

"If everyone hates him, why not find an assassin like Serena?" Abel asked, "Then won't all the secrets disappear with him?"

"That's too simple. "His sophisticated underground organization will follow his instructions," Ogst said. Spread all the information collected in an unstoppable way. That's what they've been studying all their lives, when to spread rumors, when to publish them in newspapers, and when to refute rumors with the trend of public opinion, so that everyone is more convinced of the news. If it is said that the skill of playing with intelligence and words, there will be no second person in the entire empire. ”

Noah said, "Martin Marcellus is a well-deserved knight of fate......

Ebner then remembered that some of the dangerous secrets that Clinos had hidden from him when he left Kanta might have been Martin's weapons against him. Ebner began to fidget, worried about what was about to happen.

Clinos followed Martin, who had been a waiter from beginning to end, to the door of the restaurant, not feeling any pre-disaster oppression, but pacing the street with a servant.

Clinos looked at Martin's bland face, thin body. Who would have thought that this was one of the most dangerous figures in the entire empire.

"The way I look must have disappointed you. Martin said.

"It's not what I expected, but it's still impressive. Clinos said.

"I will not overlook my appearance so lightly, as you can see that I am a nobleman with little strength, and I do not know how to wield a sword or a bow. To this day, the way I ride a horse is still unsightly. Martin said self-deprecatingly, "Why would such a man become a famous public enemy? he doesn't even have an army or gold to win a battle, or to use it to coerce and induce." ”

"I'd like to hear how Mr. Martin got to where he is today. Clinos said.

"I wouldn't call it a success, but it's not easy. "And the secret key to all this is the multitude of friends, who are scattered throughout the Empire, my lord," said Martin. ”

"You're here to make friends with me?" said Clinos, "and maybe I won't really enjoy your way of making friends." ”

"My other friends weren't very happy to have me as a friend, but they didn't have many options. Martin said, "But you're different, Mr. Clinos. I really want to form a strong alliance with you, and I've done a lot to please you to achieve this. ”

"What did you do?"

"You can't imagine how much effort I have spent and how much blood I have stained the land to stop the news of the Staff of Truth from reaching the Imperial Capital, or anywhere else. A fish escaped into Demorah, but it has now been properly resolved. So in the eyes of the public, the Stick of Truth is still an absurd legend. "After all that was done, my eagerness compelled me to look for you," Martin said. Your aimless departure from Kanta was deceptive, but my dove found your trail and whispered to me about your whereabouts. When I heard that you were passing through Gerdo, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep all night. After the caravan was destroyed, I lost all traces of you. When I was discouraged, I heard from my little pigeon that you were haunting the village at the bottom of the tree and overthrowing the imperial rule there. I was amazed, and I sincerely hope that this doesn't happen again. ”

"I can't help myself. Klinos said.

"I understand that you have compassion for those who have been victimized, but that such an act will soon lead you to a certain death. ”

"Why don't we talk about why you're here?"

"No problem, my lord. Martin leaned over and said, "When I heard that you were going to follow the caravan, I hurried to the village near the trade route to wait. But when Gerdor's story became known, Mr. Clinos might not follow the caravan's route, but he would certainly seek help from the Saunders family in Estile. ”

"Did you also participate in Noah's kidnapping?"

"There was someone else who planned it, but I'm glad you rescued Mr. Noah at the end. "But the Sanders don't have any news about the Stick of Truth, as I've repeatedly confirmed," Martin said. I am the only one who really knows the news of the Stick of Truth. Work with me, Master Klinus White, and we're both win-wins. ”

"You haven't answered my question yet, I'm only a few days away from the avenue at the bottom of the tree to the new river valley. Even if anyone saw us, the news would not reach your ears, and it would give you time to get from Estile. Clinos said, "You're here in a hurry to meet me, you're telling me you know how to use the Twin Crystals, aren't you?"

"You're not wrong at all, Lord Clinois. Gemini Crystals are an important part of my vast network, and they give me a head start. Martin said, "If Master White cooperates with me, I can tell you all about the use of the Twin Crystals." ”

"Why don't you organize your own team to find the Stick of Truth? The Marcellus family will surely be able to take the Stick of Truth in a planned and efficient manner. Krinus asked.

"It seems that the outside world has misunderstood me, you see that I am just a little knight. Neither fiefdom nor gold can be compared to those larger families. All I have is the message of the little pigeon. Martin said, "That information gave me unseen power, and let me know that no one is better up to the task than Master White." Knowledge is not only power, knowledge is also the key to the right answer. Only stupid people would put Mr. White in a position of resignation, and I'm here to prevent those stupid people from doing that to you. Having said that, Master Clinos. Would you like to cooperate?"

"Just by your side?" said Clinos, "I'm afraid you'll have to come up with more tempting, or even more terrifying news." ”

"I don't like to threaten my friends, I really don't like it, but that doesn't mean I can't. Once you've seen for yourself what the Sanders family is like, you need to remember that Marcellus will always be on your side. Martin said, "And my friend is your friend." If you need help, you just have to tell a random lord: the dead will also snitch. ”

"I'll remember. ”

"I really hope you don't need this, Lord White. Martin bowed his head again.

"Lord Marcellus. Clinos replied, "We should go back, you may be in a hurry." ”

Klinos turned his head to leave, and heard Martin say:

"Wait a little longer, it looks like it's time for our Miss Serena to take your seat. ”
