Chapter Seventy-Four: Misunderstanding and Battle
The silver moon hung high, in the center of Wendelier City, somewhere in the towering gray and black heavy castle, a young blonde boy was rubbing his hazy sleepy eyes, standing on the balcony looking at the direction of the gunfire in the northern city. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Hmm...... What people... Trouble over there?"
The young man in his pajamas muttered this sentence in a daze, as if he had been awakened from his sleep by the sound of a certain Mrs. Paul's gunshot.
This is a very handsome young man, his half-length blonde hair looks a little messy because he just got up, and a pair of light blue beautiful eyes are only half-open and confused, and he is trying to look at the location of Beicheng District, and he is still holding a dark red pillow in his left hand, as if he forgot to put it down when he got up.
Norab Corvich, that's the name of the boy, in fact, he is the true owner of the city of Wendlier, and two years ago, he inherited the title of viscount of the kingdom of Chilod from his father, becoming a very rare existence in history to inherit the title as a minor.
If anything, it was that his father had died of illness, and he was the sole heir to the Corvich family, nothing more.
"Lord Corvic!"
As Norab Corvich made an effort to look around, a figure suddenly appeared behind him, bowing to him very respectfully.
“... Oh, it's Sarts?"
Norab turned his head and glanced at the man behind him, his eyes still blinked, as if he had recognized the identity of the person who came, and then, his tone became a little dissatisfied: "Didn't you say it? When no one is in private, just call me Young Master Norab!"
"But ......"
Hearing the blonde boy's words, the middle-aged man he called Satz seemed to hesitate for a moment before nodding: "... However, it has been two years since you inherited the title of Lord Marcus, and in order to better establish the prestige of our Corvich family in the outside world, please get used to this title as soon as possible!"
"Okay, I see, Sarts! You've said this kind of thing hundreds of times!"
Norab Corvich looked so bored that he put his hand over his ears and complained: "Besides, don't I do a good job in the presence of outsiders? You used to call my father like that, and now you call me that way, and I'm very troubled! You know, I'm only fifteen years old, and I haven't even had a coming-of-age ceremony, isn't it strange that a large crowd of people call me 'grown'......?
"If that's the reason for your troubles, Master Norab, in two months' time, your coming-of-age ceremony will take place, and then ......" Satz's expression was not moved in the slightest, but put on a serious expression, as if to remind something.
"Yes, yes...... Sarts, you don't need to remind me like that!"
Norab Corvic's brows were furrowed, and he covered his forehead with one hand, making a helpless expression: "I still remember the agreement at that time, I will not break it! When the time comes, I will be the head of the Corvich family, no matter what the occasion, if you call me Lord Corvic again, I will be very happy to ......."
"Okay, Master Norab, if you remember!"
As he spoke, Satz once again respectfully saluted the blonde boy on the balcony, his movements meticulous.
In fact, this middle-aged man called 'Sarts' by the blonde boy, his full name is Sattaz Reilworth, and he and his family are retainers who have served the Corvich family for generations, and they are loyal and trusted by generations of the Corwich family, and Satz Lilvoz himself is the great steward of this generation of the Corvich family.
Therefore, although the blonde boy named Norab Corvich just now seemed to be very dissatisfied with him and always said some complaining words, he actually trusted this Sattaz butler very much, in another sense, he was watched by Sattaz since he was a child, nominally a retainer, but in fact he was an elder, and he still trusted each other very much in his heart.
"Alright, let's not talk about that, Sarts!"
Norab Corvich nodded, looked back in the direction of the North City, and frowned: "What the hell is going on over there, how can there be the sound of guns?"
As the current head of Corvich's family, he is in charge of the entire city of Wendlier, but he is young, so he will naturally attract the attention of some interested people. If it weren't for the fact that the Corvich family had enough prestige in the outside world with its careful management over the past hundred years, it was estimated that many people would come to attack his idea, so even if this young master Norab was not very old, he would still be more sensitive to things of this nature.
If this is a deliberate move made by some well-intentioned person to test his depth, then he should be very cautious!
"Young Master Norab, according to the reports of the people below, it seems that there is a battle going on there in Beicheng District, the identities of both sides are unknown, and the reason for the fight is not yet known. ”
Hearing the young viscount's inquiry, Satz's expression was solemn, and he quickly said the news he had just received, but his words were very mellow and clear, making it easy for people to hear the words clearly, all of which showed that the great butler was extremely cultivated in etiquette.
"Oh?"
Norab Corvich's brow was still furrowed, and his right hand rested his chin on his chin, as if he was thinking about something: "Could it be some deliberately ambitious bait?"
"Well, this possibility is not ruled out. ”
In this regard, Satz Rearvoz just nodded and expressed his opinion: "Perhaps, it is precisely because your coming-of-age ceremony is about to be held in the near future, Young Master Norab, that they are starting to be a little anxious!"
"Hmm......"
Norab Corvich groaned for a while, a glint flashed in his light blue eyes, as if he had made a decision, and turned to Satz Rearvoz and instructed, "In that case, then we must not be too weak, lest we be underestimated by those people! No, two squads, immediately go and arrest those people in Beicheng District, and if they dare to resist, kill them on the spot!"
The young viscount waved his hand and made a downward cutting motion, the murderous and decisive in his eyes were not at all like the weak and deceitful appearance of the blonde little Shota holding a pillow on his appearance.
"Yes, yes!"
Satz Reilworths bowed to the blonde teenager and seemed unsurprised by Norab Corvich's performance. He took a few steps back, then turned to leave, but before he could go far, his whole body turned into a dark shadow and completely disappeared into the room, obviously a powerful existence.
Soon, as Norab Corvich gave the order, there was a sound of neat footsteps in the otherwise silent castle, it was an armed team of dozens of people, either on foot or on horseback, walking out of the castle gate in an orderly manner, the atmosphere was solemn with a decisive murderous intention.
On the other hand, she was in a stalemate with the other party, unaware that the battle between herself and Mr. and Mrs. Paul had been misunderstood by a certain lord of the castle---
She formed a triangular formation with her two doppelgangers, encircling Vic Paul and Lena Paul in the middle, but did not find the right opportunity to attack.
Because, she is still quite jealous of these two people!
From the brief battle between her clone and the other party before, she roughly tested the strength of these two people, although the combat ability of the clone was not as good as one-third of her body, but it was enough for her to see something.
In terms of speed, Vic Paul is not below her, and even faintly faster than her, you know, when her doppelganger retreated, but was approached by the other party in an instant, and Vic Paul's hands seemed to be very flexible, and the use of the dual swords could not see any lag or difference between the left hand and the right hand, and he was obviously quite skilled. In terms of swordsmanship, this person is also quite terrifying, there is no flaw that can be used at all, and the golden-colored light on his double swords still has a restraint effect on her blood condensation line, and if she is not careful, even her life will be in danger!
As for strength, she didn't be able to measure the depth of the other party, but in this aspect, she didn't have any special advantages, because, her body of the blood alchemy puppet, it still seemed to be more agile type, and its strength was not outstanding.
Not...... Is there no advantage in strength, and a slight disadvantage in speed?
Her mind measured the gap between the two sides, and she was engrossed in watching each other's every move, and under the cloak, the fingers of her right hand swayed the cold blade, watching for any possible opportunity to attack. She didn't pay much attention to the subtle sounds in the distance that seemed to be startled by the gunshots, because that was exactly what she wanted.
As for Lena Paul's words, this lady only has five bullets for the time being, and for her clones, they can completely compete with their bodies, as long as her body is not attacked by the other party, this is not something she needs to worry about, perhaps, this lady's role is only used to counterbalance Vic Paul's actions, right?
... Hey?
No, it's not!
The little girl seems to have said that this lady Paul did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to order a lot of alchemy bullets with special powers, in case this kind of bullet can suppress the power of her bloodline like the golden light......
Thinking of this, the pupils of her blood-red eyes suddenly shrank, and she couldn't help but turn her gaze to Lena Paul's hands.
"It's now!"
Lena Paul was alarmed, and immediately noticed that her attention had fallen on her revolver, and she gave a loud shout and signaled to move. Although Mrs. Paul did not know why the mysterious enemy suddenly noticed her pistol, and did not know if the other party had discovered the secret of the bullet, she did not dare to continue the stalemate.
Boom!
Vic Paul, who was standing back to back with Mrs. Paul, moved, he understood what his wife meant, kicked his feet, and suddenly turned into a shadow and rushed towards her, the light of the double sword in his hand was like a snake, ready to attack.
Bang!
At the same time, two more gunshots rang out, but before they could fall, in a very short gap, there was another 'bang', but it was the lady Paul who fired the third shot quickly!
The first shot was the same clear yellow bullet as before, and the target was her body.
The second and third shots were two silver shuttles with white light, and the targets were her two clones!
However, because of the order of the nest, Lena Paul did not hesitate to give her the first ordinary bullet of the left-handed revolver, passing through the gap under Vic Paul's arm and pointing it straight at her heart.
