Chapter 43: Looking into the Distance

Erlan hadn't been so frightened when she smashed the shop, but now she saw Sreta pull out her dagger, as if she was really about to do it, and she trembled with a small folding fan beside her.

Beres frowned, in fact, she wanted to come forward to persuade her, after all, it was better to let her come for this kind of thing, otherwise she was afraid that she would dirty Sresta's hands, but she saw that Sresta's face was cold and firm, and it seemed that she had made up her mind, and it was not good to step forward to stop her.

With a cute tilt of her head, Sleta took out the dagger, the blade sharp and visibly with regular maintenance.

The evening sun cast on Sreta's dagger, the blade shining in reflection, and the light was terrifying in the man's eyes.

"You... What the hell are you going to do! Let me go, or else... Otherwise...!"

Before the man could finish his threatening words, the crowd outside was separated, and a group of people came out, and Sreta looked back to see that it was the deputy-of-office of the ceremonial officer and several servants.

This person Sleta is familiar, this is the gentleman who taught her aristocratic etiquette for more than ten days.

But she didn't have any gratitude for this man.

"Sleta, what are you doing, how can you show your weapon to the nephew of the ceremonial officer! The deputy-deputy-of-ceremony stepped forward, only to be stopped by the guards.

"I said, sir, have you forgotten something? You are only the deputy of the ceremonial officer, not a nobleman. You teach me aristocratic etiquette, and I will already give you face when I call you Mr. Sheng. Don't forget, there's no classroom at the palace right now, it's outside. How did you talk to me?" Sleta smiled lightly, "You taught me aristocratic etiquette, could it be that you have forgotten now?"

The deputy, the deputy, looked stunned, his heart beat hard, and his face became even more panicked when he saw that Sreta was wearing the badge that emitted a hint of colorful light on his chest.

How could Xu Mu's power badge be on his sister!

"If you don't think you can pull your face down and salute me, then stay away, don't get in the way of my business, or I'll catch you together." ”

One of the deputies, who was a friend of the drunken man before, grabbed the deputy's clothes and said, "Hurry up and save him!

The deputy-de-co-ordinate of the ceremonial officer stiffened his head and knelt down on one knee to salute: "Honorable Lady Sresta... I beg you to raise your noble hand and let him go... I am willing to apologize for the mistakes he made for his rudeness and compensate you. ”

"Good attitude, but I don't accept it. ”

"What?!"

Sleta laughed, very happy: "If you ask me to raise my hand, I will raise my hand?" Do you know that my Sleta never jokes, I will do what I say!"

"Don't be kidding! That's the nephew of the ceremonial officer, if you really do something to him, it will definitely be bad for your brother!"

When the guards knew Sreta's determination, they rushed over and shouted, "Silence me!"

The deputy, the ceremonial officer, and the people who brought it suddenly did not dare to speak out, because their status was not noble. Although the deputy is a position officer, in terms of status, he is not as good as Sreta, who already wears the badge of power...

And the ceremonial officer and this nephew are actually not particularly close, and even the blood relationship is far from close, so they don't even have the power to embroider the noble coat of arms on their clothes.

In the aristocratic system, people other than the direct relationship of the nobility must be given a noble badge by the nobleman himself, which can represent the side of the noble family. And the nephew of the ceremonial officer, who can't hit the ten-meter-long stick, unless the ceremonial officer gives him a badge, this nephew also does not have noble status and privileges.

Originally, he rudely rammed Sresta, and Sleta really couldn't take his life.

Although the man is not a nobleman, he has something to do with the ceremonial officer, and Sleta also belongs to the reserve nobles, and even if he is punished, he will be punished by the magistrate.

But the important thing is that the nephew of the ceremonial officer actually humiliated Xu Mu in public. If you want to scold, no one will pay attention to you if you cover the quilt and scold you, but now he is scolding in public, and Sleta is still wearing a badge of power, if Sleta really wants to kill, then this ceremonial nephew will die!

"Deputy, save me! This girl is really playing!" Where has the man experienced this kind of thing, usually he is coaxed to the sky by the people around him, although the ceremonial officer does not want to see him, but after all, the relationship is there.

The deputy, the ceremonial officer, gritted his teeth and lowered his head, only praying that Sreta would let him go, and did not dare to say anything at all.

And the guards in front of them, it seems, as long as they dare to speak, these guards dare to put their fists in their mouths.

Sleta snorted and walked up to the man with her dagger.

The man struggled frantically, but the guards dared not let go, although they felt awkward that Sreta was going to kill someone with her own hands, but the master's order was an order, and they could not disobey it.

Sleta clutched the dagger in her hand and pointed at the man's head, motioning for someone to hold it down.

One of the guards was very sensible and went over to clamp the man's head with his hand to prevent him from moving.

"You... Let me go... Please!"

Sleta ignored him, she held the dagger at the man's forehead, but it seemed that the posture of holding the dagger made her feel awkward, after all, she had not used a weapon much, and how to use the dagger was a little awkward.

The sharp tip of the dagger touched the man's forehead, and the man's body trembled, and the ground was steaming hot, and he urinated.

The smell of urine was pungent, and Sleta scolded secretly, she didn't cry out in pain when she was suffering, even if she stabbed someone in the chest, she was not afraid, she didn't expect the man in front of her to be so unbearable.

"I wanted to cut your scalp, pick your head open, and help you carve a few more words, but I didn't expect you to pee your pants before I could do it. Sleta frowned in disgust, "Forget it, let's do it another way." ”

"Let me go... Please..."

Before she could finish her begging for mercy, Sleta had already found her position and stabbed the dagger into the man's forehead.

The man felt that a foreign object had pierced his scalp, and he was desperately trying to get into his head, and suddenly his whole body stiffened, and his pupils became dilated and he wanted to struggle, but he did nothing.

Sleta found that her dagger touched her skull and couldn't pierce it, so she gritted her teeth and put her hands against the handle of the dagger, trying to slam it inside.

The man wanted to shout for help, but his jaw was clamped by the clever guard, and he could only make a 'whine' sound.

Erlan couldn't stand it anymore, but she didn't dare to turn around, for fear of causing Sresta's dissatisfaction, so she quickly closed her eyes and bowed her head.

Berez's face was extremely normal, but she just felt that it was really bad for Sreta to do this.

Sleta sucked as hard as she could, and when she found that the dagger had only pierced her skull a little, she shook her aching hands.

Although Sleta gave up her hand, the dagger was still standing firmly on the man's forehead.

When the man saw Sreita let go, he desperately tried to cry out for help.

Seeing this, Sleta frowned, and she took a few steps back: "Bereth." ”

Beres smiled, finally using her own hands.

I saw Beres reflexively make a handsome roundabout kick, a clean and handsome movement, and directly and accurately kicked the dagger into the man's skull.

The dagger pierced the man's skull, directly destroying the brain, and the man's body was forced against the wall and trembled violently a few times, and finally he was no longer powerless to struggle.

The deputy, the ceremonial officer, watched this happen, and his face was extremely bad...

The civilians and guards in the crowd did not dare to speak out, and some of the nobles were very arrogant, not that they had not killed people in the streets.

But I've never seen anything like Sretta...

He stabbed a person alive with a dagger into someone's brain...

And then the good name said, is it to help people review the aristocratic etiquette? Engrave the things of aristocratic etiquette in their minds?

Thinking of this, the guards next to him couldn't help but tremble, this is the sister of the captain of the knights... My sister is like this, and my brother is probably not far behind...

The guard let go, and the man's body fell to the ground like a puddle of mud, and the side of the man's head hit the side of his own pee, and Sleta frowned.

Sreta stretched out her hand to Erlan, Erlan was stunned, and under the indifferent eyes of Sleta, she immediately came to her senses and handed over the small folding fan with both hands.

Sreta opened the folding fan, got into the carriage with Erlan's support, and told the carriage to turn around and prepare to leave for home.

When Sreta was about to leave, Sreta called to stop the carriage, and she drew the curtain and said to the deputy, the ceremonial officer, "Sir, that dagger is the first gift my brother has given me, and although it is not of much value in itself, it is very precious to me. When the time comes, when you are done with it, please clean the dagger and send it back to my house, but don't get dirty and lose it. ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the crowd next to him changed, and the deputy of the ceremonial officer was like eating a few bed bugs, and his face was so terrifying that he could scare the ghost to death, but he could only salute and respond.

In this way, the carriage carried Sleta and Erlan, and two teams of light armor guards lined up behind him, and calmly left the place.

......

Xu Mu and Ai Lu stayed in the carriage for several days, and finally came to the realm of Heaney's School of Magic, but when he and Ai Lu just got off the carriage and found a place to rest.

Two men on horseback came running from the buttocks, and they turned out to be messengers who specialized in delivering letters.

Before leaving, at Xu Mu's request, the carriage was also fastened, otherwise these messengers would have intercepted Xu Mu on the road.

After accepting the envelope, send the two messengers away.

Xu Mu opened the two letters and began to read them.

Ai Lu poured water for Xu Mu on the side, and seeing that Xu Mu's face was a little weird when she read the letter, she couldn't help but smile and asked, "What's the matter, your face is so weird." ”

"You told me before that it's good that Sleta didn't bully people, how could she be bullied..."Xu Mu pushed the two letters in front of Ai Lu: "Now I believe it..."

"Sreta is in trouble?" said Erilu, picking up the letter with some anxiety.

"It's kind of a trouble. ”

After reading the letter, Ai Lu couldn't help but look weird: "This..."

"I forgot about it, blame me. Before, I promised Sleta that I would accompany her to smash the store, but later because of sword training and cultivating the magic seal, I actually forgot... Unexpectedly, Sreta was so angry about the incident that she took Beres to smash the store on the day we left. Xu Mu smiled bitterly at self-reproach, "That's it, after all, it was just a smashing shop, and the shopkeeper did have something disrespectful, Sleta is now a different identity, and it is understandable to teach him a lesson." It's just that the nephew of the ceremonial officer killed this later, which is indeed a little..."

Ai Lu stretched out his hand and pressed it on Xu Mu's big hand, and said comfortingly: "Isn't it okay? Although the ceremonial officer led the group of officials to find the queen to ask for an explanation, but with the queen here, and she attaches so much importance to you, how could she let Sreta be bullied? You see, didn't this letter say that Sreta was taken to the palace by the queen and said that she would personally discipline and so on. ”

"Of course I do... Alas, I just don't think I noticed anything strange about Sleta, otherwise I would never have allowed her to do these things alone, it would have been too dangerous. ”

Ai Lu also smiled bitterly: "Why do you seem to only worry about Sresta's safety, not Sleta's temper? Although she listened to what I said, she definitely didn't pay as much attention to you. ”

Xu Mu was stunned: "Why do you want to change it?" Sleta is indeed cruel on the surface, but everything happens for a reason, if it weren't for the innkeeper doing this to us, Sleta wouldn't have been obsessed with smashing his shop. If it weren't for the nephew of the ceremonial officer, who insulted Sleta and me, Sleta wouldn't have thought of killing him. I think Sleta did the right thing, I just hate myself for not being there for her. ”

"You..."Ai Lu's thoughts were different from Xu Mu's after all, and she couldn't accept it: "What if Sresta's temper becomes tyrannical in the future?"

"That's fine, at least she won't do the same to us. Xu Mu shook his head and held Ai Lu's soft hand behind his back: "You can't let her become a kind fool like you, usually a big fool like you is easy to be bullied." Regardless of the place, the people who are owed the most are also good people. It's enough for me to have a big fool like you by my side, but is it possible to have more little fools?"

Ai Lu originally wanted to say something, but when she heard Xu Mu say that she was easy to be bullied, she couldn't help but think of the words that Xenia had said to her in private, and she was silent.

"Forget it. Now that the Queen is on her side to take care of Sreta, we should rest assured. Ai Lu figured something out and said with a smile.

"No, when Sreta was picked up by the Queen's men, she startled Bereth. You see, a letter from Berez, a letter from the Queen... It's interesting. Xu Mu grabbed Ai Lu's hand, "Now that we have all arrived at the Heaney Academy of Magic, let's think about how to learn magic well!"

"Hmm. ”

In fact, even if the world is gradually barren and human affection is gradually cold, Xu Mu, Ai Lu, and Sleta will eventually become each other's believers.

In Xu Mu's words, even if Sreta wants to be herself, it doesn't matter if it's a little weird, and it's okay if he's different from other children, because he will always stand by Sresta's side.

The same is true for Ailu.

And Sleta is not a selfless person, but she is not a selfish person either, everything she wants to do, in her heart, is actually for the family that she has built with great difficulty.

All three of them actually have the same habits.

Habit of looking into the distance often.
