"You killed them?"

Tess looked at the two nobles worriedly and said:

"Although the guards are big people who can't be messed with in the eyes of the common people, they are no different from untouchables in front of the real big people, these two people should be the nobles of high status in Southern Star City, unlike the people in those alleys, killing them will cause a big riot. =X.”

Although she hadn't seen those people die before, she saw the blood on the ground and had no doubt about the ruthlessness of the silver-haired swordsman's attack.

"Looks like you scared her before, master."

Stephanie flew over after completing the reconnaissance mission, just in time to see the look on Tess's face.

"It's just a little messy of their memories so they forget what just happened."

Xia reluctantly put on a black magic robe, walked to Tess, touched her head and said:

"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of guy who kills people indiscriminately, although these two people are wicked people, but their crimes are not to death, but I can't just let them go so lightly......"

She gave instructions to the black-clad little Lori, who excitedly began to search through the walls for something valuable.

"If they are really wicked, it is better to kill them."

Unexpectedly, Tess, a cowardly-looking little girl, actually showed ruthlessness, looked at the two who had fainted, and said.

The little girl dared to enter the dangerous place of the forest by herself, and it was obviously not the flowers in the greenhouse, but a very decisive girl, which reminded her of the girl with crippled legs and azure hair.

"**Garnice ......"

She whispered the girl's name.

"Master, they have hidden a lot of money, and I have taken it all! Want to check out somewhere else? ”

The little Lori in black flew out of the wall with joy, and seemed to be addicted to this kind of thing.

"Nope. In a moment the servants will come and collect the crops, and we will get ready to leave here. ”

She walked to the window, slammed the curtain open, and looked at the sky high outside:

"Little **, have you now broken into the interior of Truis? Although Wendy has promised to protect you, the strength of the Order is not as simple as it seems...... Remember what I was told? If there is danger, always flee immediately. Don't let anything happen. ”

"Ahh Come on! Guards - guards - there are robbers! ”

At this time, the subordinate who was cleaning outside the window saw a strange black-robed man standing in the master's room, dropped the broom in his hand in fright, and shouted at the door as he ran.

"Robbers? Where is it. ”

There were quite a few guards in this family, and in an instant, seven or eight warriors with weapons rushed in, and among them there was actually a magician.

"Boom!!"

There was a sudden explosion in the wide yard.

"Wow!" "Eh!"

The guards who rushed into the courtyard were all blown out.

The magician rolled on the ground with his head covered in dust, and he lay there coughing for a long time before raising his head:

"Ahem, ahem...... What is it...... Could it be that a monster has come in the city? ”

As a result, when the smoke cleared, nothing appeared in the courtyard.

There were neither robbers nor monsters, and the ground was empty. The servant looked up into the window again, and saw that the black-robed man was long gone.

……

"Your sister...... What kind of person is he? ”

In Tess's house, Xia took out a small robe and covered her inside, and asked casually.

Tess touched the magic robe on her body with some freshness, raised her head when she heard her words, looked at her and replied:

"Sister Orga is a very strong person, and she is very good at fighting, and she has never lost a duel with someone in this city; She used to just show up from the street. Those noble children who usually flaunted their martial arts did not dare to approach her at all, and avoided her when they saw her from a distance. Not to mention the guards. ”

With a hint of pride, she said:

"When my sister was still in the city, she was the hero of all children and the object of many people's longing, but she was so beautiful, but she was never interested in men, and I also asked her why she didn't find a betrothed person......

"Wait, wait, wait."

Xia interrupted her in surprise:

"She's beautiful? How do I look a little ......"

I thought of that swarthy and shiny face. Thick red lips and a head of loose hair that covered the facial features of heavy makeup...... I can't help but have the illusion that she is talking about another person.

"Master, the client is here, bringing three guards."

Stephanie suddenly flew in from outside. Reported to her.

"Okay, you sit there for a while, don't move, don't speak, if there's a fight, quickly flee from the door, and then go to this place to find me, which will be our contact point in the future."

Xia put Orga's affairs aside for the time being, and took out a note, only to see a route and a few words drawn on it.

"Well, my handwriting has improved."

She smugly flicked the note and handed it to Tess.

“……”

The black-clothed little Lori looked at the few common characters of the continent that were not much better than earthworms crawling, and cleverly remained silent.

"Dim the lights."

Natsu put on a hood and a silver mask and said to Tess.

Tess, who was sitting next to the lamp, turned down the light, and the room suddenly became much darker, and with a black-robed person and a slightly shorter red-robed person, the atmosphere became a little weird.

"Knock knock."

At this moment, there was a polite knock on the door outside.

"Whew."

With no one at the door, the door suddenly opened automatically, and four people walked in from the outside.

"Good evening, gentlemen."

At the foreground was a man also wearing a mask, tall but not thin, with a dark cane in two conspicuous white gloves - not because of his legs, but for many of the nobility, because a noble cane represented power and wealth, and was also a symbol of nobility.

"I was pleasantly surprised, Mr. Thief."

The aristocratic man gave a slight courtesy and sat down in the seat prepared for him. Then he waved his hand.

Two of the three men who followed him went out, leaving only a sharp-eyed guard standing behind him, one hand clutching the hilt of the sword hanging from his waist.

"Forgive my curiosity, the strange way of opening the door just now is obviously not a mechanism, and if it is, it must be very ingenious...... Let me guess, could it be that you are still a venerable magician? ”

He said, looking at the good-made magic robe. Asked calmly.

Unlike the dead leader of the guards, the aristocratic man recognized at a glance that this was the most popular style in the royal capital, although it looked a little old, but if this magic robe was sold, it could still be exchanged for a small house in South Star City, of course, it could only be in the civilian area.

"Stephanie, turn on auto mode, cunning merchant."

Natsu said to Stephanie in her mind.

I don't know if luck is good or bad. Today, there are three strange characters in the personality column, including this cunning businessman.

However, in response to the current situation, it is obviously a good idea to use it to negotiate with the other party.

"Use the information I know to negotiate with the other party, and be careful not to divulge secrets."

She gave the command, then pressed the voice-changing button on the mask.

"Let's get down to business, Lord Viscount."

Her voice was muffled and hoarse through the mask, making it uncomfortable to hear.

"How could a big man like you deign to be in such a place. Meet the hired person in person? It seems that this should be someone else's doing. ”

She looked at the guard standing behind him:

"For example, the swordsman behind you is very good, loyal. Meticulous and experienced; He's been staring at my shoulders and cuffs since he came in, for fear I'm going to release a poison needle or magic. ”

The aristocratic man's hand on crutches trembled slightly.

The other party revealed his origin and the actions of the guards, and this sharp gaze obviously surprised him a little.

But he soon let out a hearty laugh:

"What a surprise to me, Mr. Thief...... Or, Mr. Magician? ”

He tilted his head. Said to the guard behind him:

"Look, with such a great partner, I feel more and more that it was a wise decision to come here......"

Then he turned his head to look at Xia and said:

"But before we get to the point, I want my collaborators to prove who they are, which is a basic condition for our conversation to continue."

"Are you sure it's a collaborator and not a hire. Lord Viscount. ”

The mask let out a somber laugh:

"Then I don't know who to ask for my share of the money, knowing that the nobles must have a notary public to make contracts that work, and I don't want anyone to know my details."

"I can explain a little bit about your question."

The aristocratic man said unhurriedly:

"There are a total of six people needed for this operation, four of whom are high-ranking mercenaries from the Mercenary Guild, and two are from two mysterious organizations."

He paused for his cane and leaned forward slightly:

"Of course, those four mercenaries are just a number, you and another person are the main force this time, but ......"

He straightened up and didn't continue.

"But I need to prove my identity first?"

Xia took his words.

"Hehe, what a wise man, and I am more and more convinced that I am talking to a wise magician, and not to a cunning thief."

He smiled, his mask shaking slightly, and then said slowly:

"Now...... You can see my sincerity, so please show your sincerity as well. ”

After he said this, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, and the guard's hand moved slightly, and a cold light appeared silently between the hilt and the scabbard.

"Is this the sincerity you mean?"

Natsu took out a brooch from under his black robe and placed it on his hand.

The brooch takes the form of a cloud, which is not pretty, and can even be said to be a little rough; The dull yellow surface was not reflected in the light, and compared to the black gloves that held it, it showed an eerie color.

"Ah, that's it."

The aristocratic man's cane paused and leaned back slightly:

"Can you put it on the table so I can take a closer look? After all, this is the first time I've seen the real thing, and I'm a little curious. ”

He makes a gesture you know:

"As soon as I came in, I said, I'm a curious person."

Natsu withdrew his hand.

"You're making it hard for me to do that."

She said in that hoarse and deep voice:

"If that's what you're trying to say, I guess I'll have to stop this conversation."

With that, she suddenly stood up from her seat.

"Cangchang!"

The guard drew his sword, and a dark yellow light erupted from his body.

"It's vindictive, master."

Stephanie, who had not spoken, looked at the guard:

"Looking at the color, it should be a kind of high-level fighting spirit, and it has reached a considerable level, this person's level is 572, which belongs to the middle level of the four-turn profession."

"Put the sword away, it's not like words!"

The aristocratic man reached out with a hand, stopping the guard's hostile move.

Without saying a word, the guard withdrew his sword, and the light on his body vanished.

"Bang Bang ......"

Xia clapped his palms:

"Very good show, Lord Viscount."

She lowered her hand and turned her head to look at the door:

"First temptation, then threat; It's just that after this guard of yours drew his sword, the two outside the door didn't follow the door to break in, so the effect was a little worse. ”

"But ......"

Her voice suddenly became a little terrifying:

"Good thing they didn't, otherwise ......"

She didn't finish her sentence.

"Well, it's my fault."

The aristocratic man spread his hands:

"I apologize to you...... Mr. Magician. ”

He suddenly reached out and took off his mask, revealing a thin face:

"It's not a reparation, but it should be a way to show some sincerity, right?"

He placed the mask on the table with a crisp sound, as if the thing was made of metal.

"To make it official, my full name is Clovis. Feng. Eaton, Viscount of Zekeria. (To be continued......) R640
