Chapter 200: "Madame"

...... It's gone?

At that moment, Benjamin chuckled in his heart, and a very bad premonition emerged. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The other mages surrounding the side also walked out of the darkness at this moment. With puzzled expressions, they gathered together and looked at each other, which also frightened the robbers who did not know the situation.

"Didn't Augustin stay with you when we left the camp? How did he not see him?" asked Benjamin, taking a deep breath to calm his stunned mood.

Andy adjusted his breathing, spoke, and recounted the whole course of events:

"Not long after you set out, we were staying in our tent when we suddenly heard a strange noise outside. At that time, Augustin asked us to stay in the tent, and he went out to see what was going on. However, when he went out, there was no movement at all. After waiting for a while, Augustin still didn't come back, and we thought it was very strange, so we walked out of the tent together......"

Hearing this, Benjamin frowned, answered the other party's words, and said, "Then, you can't find him?"

The two potion mages nodded with a frightened expression.

Seeing this, Benjamin could only take a deep breath and fell into deep thought.

They have all fled abroad, and they have avoided the eyes and ears of other people as much as possible, and the result is still like this, strange things have hit them one after another, and they can't avoid it.

Can't they reach the border in peace?

It's no small thing that one of the mages is missing. Augustin, who had previously been a tavernkeeper in Crewe, had left the kingdom and had known little about Ikor, like the other mages. What's more, Benjamin knows him, a very enthusiastic uncle, although he has some special hobbies, he will not just say goodbye casually.

There was no doubt that the strange noise heard by the three mages who stayed behind after most of the mages left the camp was definitely not an accident or accident.

"What kind of voice is that?" he asked, so he asked.

"Hmm...... It's a bit like a cat meow in the spring, but it's short. Andy described it with some distress, "but there was also a little baby crying, very harsh, it sounded scary, and it disappeared all at once." At the time, I thought I had misheard......"

"Nope. Suddenly, Hannah next to her interrupted Andy and added, "That voice is much sharper than a cat in heat, and I think it's like a woman's laughter." It's just that...... Maybe it's a weird laugh. ”

A woman's laughter?

At that moment, Benjamin thought he was listening to some folk ghost story. The three of them were in the camp at night, and suddenly they heard the laughter of a strange woman, and one of them went out to check, and never returned......

It's a pity that this is not a story, but a real event that happened to them.

Because of Hannah's reminder, Benjamin quickly associates "a woman's laughter" with the "lady" described by the robbers.

The only woman in the bandit camp disappeared inexplicably, and at the same time, strange laughter was heard in the mage camp, and then a mage disappeared for no apparent reason. If there was no connection between the two things, then Benjamin really didn't believe it.

The crux of the incident may well lie in that "lady".

"What the hell is the matter with that vanished 'madam'?" he asked, turning around and staring at the robber lying on the ground with murderous intent.

The robbers were obviously a little confused about the current situation, but they were all frightened and weakened, so naturally they would not hide anything: "Madam...... She's our boss's wife. ”

"And what about your boss?" asked Benjamin at once.

"Our boss...... You've just been killed. ”

“......”

Benjamin suddenly felt the urge to vomit blood.

Calm down...... Don't be in a hurry...... It's useless to be in a hurry......

Taking a deep breath, he then asked, "Forget it if you die, how much do you know about her, where she is from, how old she is, what she looks like, when she married your boss, and what kind of personality...... Tell me everything you know. ”

Hearing this, the rest of the robbers looked at each other, as if they didn't know how to speak. But under the watchful eye of the mages, they had no choice but to come together, and you described the missing "lady" word by word.

"Madame is beautiful, but her personality is so powerful that I don't even dare to look at her more. ”

Madame's voice was a little high-pitched, and the laughter was scary. Every time I hear her laugh, I feel a headache. ”

"The boss is actually very afraid of the lady's ......"

In this way, with the bandits' scattered descriptions, the mysterious female figure finally became clear in the hearts of the mages.

Although the robbers all looked extremely respectful, according to them, at first, the lady was actually just a lady of the village that their boss had robbed on a merchant ship on the Fit River, and she was forced to marry the robber boss.

The lady, who had just married the robber boss, was very gentle and rarely spoke, but gradually, her fierce character was revealed. At first, she scolded everyone else in the village, and no one dared to say anything for the sake of the robber boss's face. But later, even the robber boss was punched and kicked by her, and became a strict wife. At the same time, the lady herself began to show very good skills, and no one in the whole village could beat her.

In this way, Madame gradually grasped the leadership of the robbers, and even their robbery plan became planned and led by Madame, and the final result turned out to be very successful. So, from a practical point of view, the lady has become their boss, and the former boss has become their deputy.

- This time, the plan for them to cross the mountains and come to the west of Ikorsi to rob was also conceived by this "lady".

If it were usual, Benjamin would have complained about how much the robber boss had after listening to this story. But now, his companions are gone, and he has no heart to pay attention to these details.

From the robbers' descriptions, he is even more sure that Augustine's disappearance is inseparable from "Madame", and it is very likely that she took Augustine away.

Although I was a little puzzled why a mage couldn't handle a woman with better skills, it had already happened, and there was no point in thinking about it.

More importantly, how to get Augustine back.

"After all this time, where is your lady from, and what is her name? don't you know any of this?" asked Benjamin, with some anxiety.

The robbers looked at each other, and for a moment there was silence.

"Nobody knows, if no one speaks, there's no value in your life. Benjamin's voice was lowered even more, and he glanced around the robber with indifferent eyes, exuding a cold killing intent on his body.

"No...... Master, I don't know what Madame's name is, but I'm here to ...... I have here a letter that was crumpled and thrown away by my wife just before I left. Suddenly, one of the robbers stood up in a panic, took out a ball of paper from his pocket, and handed it to Benjamin tremblingly, "We don't know how to read, we don't know what is written on the letter, maybe...... Maybe Master Mage can find something useful. ”

"What are you doing when you pick up the letter that Madame threw away?" asked Benjamin in a whisper before Benjamin looked puzzled.

"No...... Only...... The letter smells good, I smell it, I can ...... It can be anything. ”

“......”

Everyone showed expressions that couldn't bear to look at each other.

However, after hearing this, Benjamin did not dislike it. He just took the paper ball, unfolded it, and looked at the letter with a serious face. However, he found that it could not be called a letter at all, but at most a draft, a draft that had just been written and then thrown aside.

The content roughly looks like it should be the words that the lady wrote to someone else.

"Dear Cinderney, how are you doing in Regina? ...... in a few days" The only message Benjamin could get from it, dear Cinderney, was a few short words.
