Leaving her hometown after a long absence, Christine wanted to walk the streets she once was familiar with, and the maid Aisha and Grey Knight followed her, which made Christine a little unhappy, but it was Julian who gave her the greatest freedom.

Christine saw a familiar old woman who was taking her granddaughter out to buy groceries, and this kind old woman would touch Christine's little head when Christine was a child and give her a piece of candy to eat.

"Old woman, long time no see. Christine greeted a thousand times.

"Sister Christine, it's been a long time since I've seen you. When the old woman's granddaughter saw Christine, she rushed forward excitedly and hugged her and said.

"I may not have seen you for a long time, little Annie, have you listened to your mother-in-law during this time? ”

"Yes, I'm obedient. ”

"That's good. Christine smiled and touched Anne's little head.

The old man was so frightened when she saw her granddaughter on Christine's lap that she hurried forward and dragged Anne back despite her struggles.

"Old woman. ”

"Ma'am, I'm sorry that my granddaughter has disturbed you. The old man pulled his doubtful granddaughter and walked away quickly.

Christine looked at the old woman who left a little stunned, she raised her head and found that no one dared to look at her, and wherever Christine's eyes went, the people there lowered their heads

"Knight Gray, you're scaring them. ”

"Not really, ma'am, you scared them. ”

......

In this era of hierarchy, there was an insurmountable gulf between the nobles and the commoners, and if the commoners dared to stand in the way of the nobles, they could even be killed on the spot without trial, and the nobles concerned would not be punished except for a small penny. And the surname McCarvey is the nobility of the nobility, the great nobility of the second class of the imperial pyramid, second only to the power below the emperor, and in the south, this surname represents the supreme rule, the symbol of all power and glory, and is a sacrosanct existence.

Now Christine's body has been labeled as a McCarvey belonging, even if it is a little of the McCarvey family, they have to treat it respectfully.

"Go back. Disappointed, Christine decided to go back.

"Aren't you going for a walk? Aisha said.

"No, they won't like it. ”

"Madame doesn't have to please these people, and it's not worth grieving you. ”

"Aisha don't say that again. Christine shook her head and said with a wry smile.

Around the corner, a dark shadow suddenly ran out and crashed into Christine's body, but fortunately, our heroic Gray Knight reacted quickly, and punched the attacker to the ground.

"Madame, look, how dangerous it is. Gray Knight said with a worried look.

The daredevil, who had suddenly burst out of the corner, was now lying on the ground wailing, her red floppy hat falling to the ground, revealing her beautiful golden curls.

That's not how it is written in knight novels, and in this moment, all the love illusions of our lovely Miss Cecilia in knights are shattered.

"Are you alright?" asked the kind-hearted Christine, crouching on the ground.

"Knight Gray, how can you be so reckless, this is a girl. Christine said dissatisfied.

"Ma'am, I'm taking precautions, don't be careless, an assassin will disguise himself in any way, and a six-year-old child's weapon is as deadly as an adult's. Knight Gray said bitterly.

"But she's not an assassin. ”

"Well, I don't think there will be such a weak killer in this world. ”

At this time, Miss Cecilia, who was lying on the ground, was so ashamed and angry that she wanted to cry, but she was not only punched, so painful that she almost fainted, but also despised, and most importantly, she was actually pitied by Christine, whom she regarded as her greatest rival, is there a greater humiliation in this world?

"It's okay, I'm sorry, my knight is too reckless, don't please forgive him too, he did it to protect me. Christine asked with concern.

Suddenly, there was a vicious shouting and scolding in the distance, "Chase quickly, don't let that little girly escape." ”

Suddenly, from behind the girl, more than a dozen vicious-looking villains with the face of a natural villain appeared, and they pointed at Cecilia and said:

"Hand over this girl and spare you from dying, otherwise, don't blame us for being unkind. "Even the lines are standard villain lines. If this is a novel, then the author must be very unimaginative.

Although they saw the identity of the Gray Knight behind Christine, the villains relied on their large number of people and said without fear.

Cecilia, who fell to the ground, was secretly anxious, would there be too many people called, although this knight looked like he could fight, but against a dozen or so sturdy villains, would it be a little difficult, in order to make this scene real enough, Cecilia covered her face and did not reveal her identity, found the leader of the local gangsters, and asked them to catch a girl named Cecilia, Cecilia had been living in Angry Waves City to study, and had only recently returned, so these gangsters did not know the identity of her mayor's daughter, and after paying the price of three gold coins, the leader of the gangsters agreed to the matter。 This is Cecilia's pocket money for half a year, which makes her feel very painful, but for the sake of her lofty ambition, she can only be ruthless, everything is worth it.

Gray Knight glanced contemptuously at the group of villains, took a sip, and rushed forward without even drawing his sword.

Gray Knight's iron fist punched one by one, and the gangster's shoddy weapons hit Gray Knight's armor, as weak as scratching a shoe, and finally Gray Knight knocked the group of unknown thugs to the ground with three punches and two kicks, and the remaining few faced this overwhelming force, abandoned their companions and fled screaming.

"Garbage. Knight Gray said disdainfully.

"Aisha, you take care of Madame, I'll call the guards. ”

Christine helped Cecilia up and said with concern, "It doesn't matter, do I want to take you to the doctor." ”

"Thank you, ma'am, no need, I'm fine. Cecilia snuggled into Christine's arms, her blue eyes welling up with tears, "They're gone." ”

"It's all right, the bad guys have been driven away by Grey Knight. ”

"Thank you, ma'am, I can't even imagine what would happen if I were caught by them. Cecilia's voice grew lower and lower, and finally she hid her face and sobbed.

"Why did they arrest you?"

"Since I was a child, my parents died, and my brother depended on each other, although life was hard, I never had a complaint, but then my brother became addicted to gambling and owed a lot of debts, he began to drink and lose his temper, punched and kicked me at every turn, forced me to go out to work to support him, and my life became unfortunate from then on. Today when I was working in the kitchen, the creditor came to the door and asked my brother to pay the debt, but we were in a difficult situation and we could not repay the large sum of money, my brother actually offered to sell me to them to pay off the debt, at that moment I was so disappointed in my brother, I was heartbroken and I sneaked out of the house, I ran desperately, the thugs chased after me, until I accidentally hit you, this scene will not appear. ”

"What a poor child. Christine couldn't help but shed tears of grief because of the girl's tragic experience.

"Madame, will you let me follow you and serve you by your side, and I will do anything for it. Now that I'm homeless, if you don't take me in, maybe you'll find my cold, huddled body in the alley tomorrow morning. Cecilia's eyes were red with tears, and she pleaded bitterly.

"What's your name?"

"Cecilia. ”

Eventually, Christine, who was sympathetic, could not resist Cecilia's pleading and agreed to take Cecilia as her maid.

"Madame, it is obviously not wise to take in such a young girl of unknown origin. Aisha said.

Cecilia was scared and unconsciously grabbed Christine's clothes, looked at Cecilia trembling in her arms, Christine gently stroked her back, and said categorically: "Aisha, this is my power." ”

Faced with Christine's uncompromising and determined gaze, Aisha finally chose to compromise, "Yes, this is your right. ”
