"Sister Marlena!?"

Ellie, who walked out of the cave, saw the woman lying on the ground and immediately recognized her identity.

"Do you know?" asked Su Wen.

"It's from our village!" Ellie squatted down, looked at the unconscious Marina, and said, "They live not far from my house and take care of me often, but why...... Wearing my grandma's clothes?"

"So the smell you smell is on this dress?"

Ellie nodded, then crouched down and straightened Marina's messy hair.

Su Wen set his eyes on Greenfell. He was curious about how the man in black could be brought down with the strength shown by Greenfield.

Greenfield smiled, knowing that he couldn't hide it from Su Wen, and then took out a silver token from his pocket and presented it in front of Su Wen. The token was engraved with an intricate pattern, and in a hurry, Su Wen only recognized the pattern with a shield and a horseshoe.

"I'm sorry, Lord Su Wen. Greenfell put away his philistine expression and made a solemn salute: "Re-introduction, I am Greenfell, a first-class scout of the Snow Eagle Knights under the command of the Duke of Snow Castle." ”

"Gong ...... Duke?!" Ellie looked up, seemingly very sensitive to the word duke.

"I was ordered to come this time to protect Miss Marina. ”

Marina ...... Miss?

Su Wen looked down at Ma Lina lying on the ground, although she was plain and dusty, her facial features were indeed very delicate, her skin was also very delicate, her complexion was very light, and there was no trace of hard work.

If you want to say that it's a village girl, I guess no one will believe it.

Su Wen turned his head to look at Ellie next to him with a shocked face.

Oh, except Ellie.

With a whistle, the horse next to him paced over, and Greenfield pulled out a cloth bag containing medical supplies from his saddle bag, then crouched down and began to treat Marina's wounds.

The main thing is the blood marks left after the hands and feet are tied hard, and the bruises caused by the bumps on the body.

While dealing with it, he told the two of them the ins and outs of their affairs.

The country that ruled this land, called the Empire of Marenor, was so powerful that, in addition to the emperor, there were two dukes, four marquises, six counts, ten viscounts, and twenty barons.

Commoners of great merit could also be granted fiefs by nobles, and then given the title of knight. For example, the knight in Ellie's old village, his fief was granted to his father by the previous generation of Baron Schildon.

Baron Shelton is one of the twentieth, and Marina's biological father, Warrent van Snow Castle, is one of the two dukes of the Empire.

Marina's mother is just a singer. The duke had a relationship with the singer and gave birth to an heir, which was not recognized among the aristocracy, especially the big nobles such as the duke.

The Duke of Snow Castle quietly left the mother and daughter in the city without hiding from the family. But paper can't contain the fire after all, and a few years later, the matter is exposed, and the singer is executed by the conservatives in the family. The Duke of Snow Castle resisted the pressure and entrusted his cronies to send Marlena to a village under the jurisdiction of Baron Seton in the south, far from Snow Castle, and sent two cronies, a man and a woman, to take care of her, in order to keep her alive from right and wrong.

More than ten years have passed peacefully, and the prophecy of the arrival of monsters has spread throughout the empire. At this time, the Duke of Snow Castle is no longer the empty young duke he was more than ten years ago, and the wealth and power he has in his hands are enough for him to have a position worthy of his name in the entire family.

So he sent Greenfell and several other members of the Order to the south, hoping to bring Marlena back to Snow Castle.

But it's clearly not that simple.

Before arriving in Xuedun City, Marlena had already been kidnapped by the Black Rope Society, and as for who was behind the scenes, who knows?

If it weren't for Su Wen, I'm afraid it would have been more than lucky.

"Oh my God......"

Ellie was shocked, and although Greenfield only briefly recounted, Ellie's eyes were red when it came to the execution of Marina's mother. This kind of fairy tale legend is not something that this young girl can resist.

"So, on behalf of the Duke, I would like to thank you, and if you would like to go with you to the snow castle, I am sure the Duke will personally thank you. Greenfell once again made a solemn salute and said to Su Wen.

"Go Suwen!" Ellie replied preemptively.

Su Wen squinted at Ellie, "You're not going to look for your grandma?"

"Eh......" Ellie's voice suddenly became smaller, and then she seemed to be weighing how to do the best of both worlds, and Su Wen's ears couldn't hear it clearly.

Greenfell's attitude was very sincere, and now he and the tacky adventurer who met Su Wen for the first time were simply two people.

Of course, Su Wen knew what Greenfil's plans were, Greenphil's strength might be on par with the black-clothed people of the Black Rope Society, not to mention that those people in the Black Rope Society also had the forbidden technique of sacrificing monsters. Although there are still some helpers on the Duke of Snow Castle's side, there is no guarantee that on the way back, he will not meet the stronger Black Rope Killer.

Therefore, if there is a strong person of Su Wen's level to accompany him, then this trip will undoubtedly be much safer.

"Su Wen, you can wake up Sister Marlena first. ”

Ellie saw that Su Wen and Greenfell suddenly fell silent, so she said.

For Marina, Ellie actually looks at it with a sense of longing. As a fellow living in that small village, Marlena has too many traits that Ellie envies.

Ellie would find Marina's hair beautiful and would imitate it after washing her hair, envy the beautiful singing that she occasionally heard from Marina's throat by the river at night, and yearn for the eye-opening things she told herself every time she talked to Marina.

Ellie would envy Marina's calmness, her grace, her beauty. Envy of this girl who is a few years older than her, all the things that exist in ordinary country girls do not exist.

Su Wen didn't answer Greenfield for the time being, and after listening to Ellie's words, he stretched out a hand and searched for the spell that could wake people up in his mind. After a cursory feeling, there was no trace of strange magic in Marina's body, but she simply fell asleep because of the drug.

In this case, a simple arousal technique can be solved.

A gentle magic sprinkled on Marina's body, and within a while, this girl with a strange fate slowly opened her eyes.

"Ahem......"

Marlena regained consciousness and began to cough, and when she recovered, she was in front of her, two men and a woman, three people she had never seen before.

"Sister Marlena!"

Eh, who is this?

Marlena looked blankly at this beautiful face that was a little excessive, unfamiliar, but always felt like she had seen it somewhere.

"I'm Ellie!"

Ellie...... Ellie?!

The little girl in the village who lives with an old man?

Subconsciously, Ellie still thinks of herself as the freckled, black, skinny country girl she used to be. I didn't realize what kind of surprise this change would bring to other people I knew.

"Didn't you evacuate with your uncle and aunt?...... Why are you wearing my grandmother's clothes? Have you seen my grandmother?"

"Ellie......" Marlena was strange, but she eventually recognized the changed girl, and she remembered that Ellie must have embarked on a journey to find the hero on the same day she withdrew from the village, and went east.

Could it really be found?

Marina, who is not yet fully awake, has an illusory feeling that she can't distinguish between legend and reality.
