Luna originally thought that her uncle would ignore her and run straight to her father, and that she would be able to get a little less attention and always have a chance to slip away and find Jack.

But it turned out that she was wrong.

Silas didn't have the time to deal with her at this moment, but that didn't mean Silas didn't pay attention to her.

Ever since the father and daughter saw each other, Silas hadn't taken his eyes off Luna.

What made Luna even more speechless was that even Ava was arrested by Sheriff Ortos and instructed to turn around, but Howard didn't care about anything, and stood directly behind her with his head held high, with a posture that no one should enter, which directly presented a vacuum around her.

All the soldiers who had followed Silas and the sheriff to deal with the follow-up would turn a corner about two or three meters away from her and take her and Howard around.

"Uncle Howard, I need to go find Jack......" Luna pleaded as she looked up at Howard.

Silas is the king, and it stands to reason that there is no need to be present for such a thing, but because of their brother and sister, the Silas people arrived, it was impossible to put Jack in front.

He had to deal with what was happening first, and there was a large number of dead and wounded civilians who had been affected by the sudden appearance of the orcs, and Silas needed to be appeased with the cooperation of the sheriff, and there was no room for any willfulness.

Luna was even more anxious because she knew this, after all, no one knew where Jack had gone, and if she didn't waste a little more time, it would be more dangerous.

"I have privately instructed the chief knight guarding the city to look for His Highness Jack, and you should wait here. The king was worried. ”

Howard's reply was very stylized, with standard honorifics, so that Luna understood that this was non-negotiable.

Looking down at her blood-stained clothes and pants, robe-like chain mail, Luna pursed her lips unwillingly, but didn't say anything else, and simply used Howard as a parasol.

Maybe Luna will try to get out of it if she can't run, but Howard, Luna really doesn't have the confidence to slip out of his nose.

Not far away, Baroness Cethia had already rushed over, and after confirming that Barry was still alive, she didn't cry, but went straight to the corpse of the half-orc who was standing there stiffly although she was dead, and turned her hands into claws, and directly cut off the half-orc's head.

Fleming wanted to stop him, but he was being held down by two soldiers, cooperating with the doctor to rescue his tail that was nailed to the ground by a crossbow arrow, and he could only watch the half-orc beside him, fall to the ground with a bang, and then be dragged away by the soldiers who ran over.

Barry and Anthony were soon stretched on a stretcher by the physician and the soldier and carried towards the city, but the Lady of Cecia did not leave, but sent her cronies to take care of her, and her eyes fell on Fleming.

Obviously, she didn't leave because her youngest son hadn't been found yet, and because she was ready to settle accounts with the Raphael family.

Sheriff Altos quickly counted the casualties, and reported to Silas with a sweaty face.

Luna wasn't close, but because the other party didn't lower her voice, she listened to it.

According to the magistrate, a total of 15 people were killed and about 30 were injured.

Of the fifteen who died, five were tenants of the Raphael family, and they were all underage cubs.

The other ten people were all passers-by.

It is worth mentioning that three of the ten males who died came to help save people, and of course there were a few of the injured, which can be regarded as righteous and courageous.

The rest of the dead and wounded will be compensated by the orcs' families, and Fleming, who has returned to his human form with a wounded tail, takes the initiative to comfort the wounded and the families of the deceased.

"What does this have to do with the Raphaels?" Luna looked up at Howard as Fleming looked apologetically gone.

Howard didn't hide it, and simply told Luna what he knew.

The more Luna listened, the more frowning her brows became, she really couldn't understand why Anthony was besieging Barry with a group of teenagers, as far as she knew, the two of them didn't have much to do with each other on weekdays.

It's okay if it's a fight on weekdays, among the noble cubs, there are actually a lot of such things, and it's not for nothing that people are injured and disabled, and the previous Reed's cousins are the best examples.

But this time it was different, because of the appearance of the orcs, and the relationship between Jack running to the bookstore for help, the whole thing was a sensation in the entire royal city, and so many people were killed and injured, so it was difficult for the Raphael family to settle the matter with only money.

It is impossible to say that there will be some aristocrats who disagree with Raphael's housekeeping who will jump out and add fuel to the fire.

Thinking about the possible aftermath of the whole thing, Luna's brow couldn't help but frown, although she was inexperienced in politics, it was difficult to predict what the matter would turn out to be in the end.

But she understands that some-stirring sticks who flaunt morality all day long, usually can't do anything, and will put on a good face once something goes wrong, will not be less at any time.

I am afraid that in order to eliminate the influence, even the Raphael family will have to make corresponding compromises in the end, and the object of this compromise must be Anthony.

"What is Grandpa Osborne's attitude, do you know?" Luna wiped the sweat from her head and looked up at Howard as Silas followed the sheriff to the crowd further away.

"Your Highness wants to ask Anthony?" Howard looked back at Luna, a serious look on his usually expressionless face.

"Yes. Luna doesn't deny it.

"He will wait for the court's fair verdict while he recovers from his injuries. This was a message from the old Marquis of Casa, after learning of the whole thing, to the king. In this matter, His Highness needs to choose his friends carefully. ”

Howard said, looking at Luna.

"Is this your advice to me, or is it my father's intention?" Luna frowned and looked at Howard, intellectually, although she understood that Howard meant what he said, but emotionally, she undeniably resented this kind of practice of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

Howard pondered for a moment when he heard this, but finally gave Luna a reminder, "From the king's standpoint, he himself will not have any attitude towards the follow-up of this matter." If so, they can only act in accordance with the Code. ”

"I see. Luna closed her eyes when she heard this, but suddenly smiled indifferently, "Uncle Howard, I haven't paid attention to what the nobles are saying about me after the slash?

Howard's face trembled a few times when he heard this, and the reminder he gave Luna was naturally not just his personal meaning.

Just thinking that Luna now has a reputation that is definitely not a good reputation in the royal city, and even in the nobility circles of the whole country, the head of the guard couldn't help but look at the large patches of mottled blood on the ground in the distance, which could not be cleaned up no matter what, and suddenly looked forward to the arrival of a heavy rain.
