Chapter 22: The Hunting Season

Jialin Harbor, a port city with the second largest port in the Midtown Federation, is located in the northwest of the Midtown Federation, close to the Crowe Passage. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The lord of Garin Harbor is Wren Joel, he is known as Joel the Sea Monster, because he is as terrifying as a sea monster, he firmly controls the whole Garin Harbor, and no one dares to contradict him here.

Wren Joel has two sons, Wren Rick and Wren Jones, two feared and hated villains in Garlin Harbor, who rely on their rights to do whatever they want in Garlin Harbor.

The people of Jialin Harbor really hate the Wren family, but in the power-first Midtown Federation, this is also a helpless thing, because no one will stand up for the common people.

Because of the arrival of the hunting season, Jialin Harbor has been very lively recently, these days, from all over the Zhongcheng Federation, there are aristocrats and wealthy businessmen have rushed to Jialin Harbor to participate in the triennial hunting season, this year's hunting season, the arrangement is quite ideal, many people are full of praise for it.

Lee Baggio, dressed in short silver armor and riding a horse, patrolled around, tomorrow is the day when Fonta Narous will lead his people and friends to participate in the hunting season, and Baggio attaches great importance to this, so tomorrow in Jialin Harbor, he will clear the field to make way for the Fonta family, and the common people and nobles will not be allowed to set foot in the hunting area tomorrow.

In the hunting area, Baggio was transporting things one after another, and the leader was busy with Zhang Luo, Bagio looked at the man, and rode over.

"Lord Baggio, it's so late in the day, you're still making your rounds, it's hard work. ā€

The man saw Baggio and hurriedly saluted, for fear of upsetting Baggio.

"Oh, Brother Rick, what are you doing here?" said Baggio frowned, showing his incomprehension of Wren Rick's actions.

"That's right, Lord Baggio, my father said that tomorrow is the day when Lord Fonta Narous will personally participate in the hunting season, and my father is afraid that the prey in the hunting area will not be enough for the lords of the Fonta family, so he has found some prey from other places. Rick said respectfully.

"Lord Joel really has a heart, no wonder he has been in charge of Jialin Harbor for so many years. Baggio smiled, this Renne Joel really knows how to do the job.

"That's what we should do! Lord Baggio said that the hunting season in Garrin Harbor was so perfectly arranged, and we shouldn't let you down. ā€

Rick couldn't stop flattering, I have to say, words like this are really boring, Bagio smiled smugly.

"But Brother Rick, I have to warn you, my father, Lord Narus, that he personally participated in the hunt just as a formality, and you arranged so many prey, but don't show the stuffing, in that case, the Wren family will not be able to eat and go around. Baggio smiled and kindly reminded Wren Rick.

Rick was stunned at first, then immediately understood what Baggio meant, and quickly nodded in thanks.

Fonta Narous is not very fond of hunting, over the years, he has been shooting a few arrows at the prey, if there are too many prey this time, let him easily get the prey, people will know what is going on, in this world, only the Fonta family and people are convenient, and do not need others to be convenient, this is a symbol of authority.

Baggio smiled again, offering to let Rick accompany him back to his temporary estate in Garryn Harbor.

In fact, a few days ago, Baggio's family had already arrived in Jialin Harbor, but in order to facilitate the hunting season, Bagio still chose to live in a temporary small manor near the city gate, this small manor was specially selected by Renne Joel for Bagio, and it was very exquisitely furnished, which was very suitable for Baggio's preferences.

Along the way, Bagio and Rick talk and laugh, Bagio admires Rick as a person, Rick is a very good talker, and he knows how to please Baggio. Of course, everyone has to curry favor with Baggio, because in the Midtown Federation, many people know that Bagio is the future son-in-law of the Fonta family, and it is a matter of time before he marries the young lady of the Fonta family.

"Wren Rick, you scoundrel, you will die here for me today!"

As Baggio and Rick were chatting as they approached the alley, five or six men with weapons suddenly rushed out from both sides of the alley, ranging in age from old to young, the oldest looking to be fifty or sixty years old, and the youngest to twelve or thirteen years old.

"Bastard, who dares to trouble Uncle Ben?!" Rick was furious when he saw the group.

"You bastard ruined our whole family, and today we are going to fight with you!" roared a strong man at the head.

Rick cursed again, and then turned and dismounted, and unloaded the spear he had been carrying from behind his back, and Baggio also turned over and dismounted, drawing his sword in his right hand. In fact, Bagio is reluctant to participate in this kind of thing, but this time he asked Rick to accompany him back to the manor, if Rick is besieged and he doesn't draw his sword, he can't say anything.

At this time, the oldest old man rushed at Rick with a sword, Rick stabbed the old man to the ground with a gun, and Baggio knew through the posture of the old man rushing over with a sword, that this group of people should have no training, just a rabble.

After the old man's death, the rest of the group cried out in pain, and the youngest boy swung his sword at Rick, while the other man slashed at Baggio with his sword.

Rick still stabbed the boy with a gun, and he knocked down the boy with a single shot, and the person who swung his sword at Bagio also cut off his wrist with Baggio's sword. Bagio shook his head slightly, Baggio really found it too boring for such a battle, so Bagio put away his sword and stood aside and watched Rick kill the rest of them one by one.

After killing the last man, Rick walked up to the man who had his right hand cut off by Baggio and was kneeling on the ground in pain, and Rick spat at the man and was about to raise his gun to stab at the man.

"Wait!" Baggio suddenly stopped Rick.

"What's wrong?, Lord Baggio, do you have any questions?" asked Rick as he paused, turned his head, and looked confused.

"Why don't you leave a living mouth and ask what's going on?" Baggio suggested.

"Not at all! I've seen a lot of people like this!There's no need to listen to their!" Rick smiled and waved his hand.

"My lord, my lord, my lord, this Wren Rick, and his men, passed by my farm outside the city one day, and he told me that he was passing by me, and he happened to be hungry, so he came and asked me to prepare food for him, and our family, seeing that he was the lord of Jialin Harbor, dared to be lazy, so they prepared food for him, but after he had eaten it, he ......," the man said.

"And then what's wrong?" asked Baggio, frowning.

At this time, Rick stood aside, with an ugly look on his face, he really wanted to kill this man immediately, but he was afraid that Baggio would blame him, so he had to stand still and remain silent.

"Then he fell in love with my daughter, so he raped my daughter, and he had his men rape all the women in my family! When we began to resist, he ordered his men to start cutting us down, and in the end only me and a few of my relatives survived!" the man said, crying.

"He's just a pauper!" Rick looked at Baggio with an embarrassed expression.

"It's not right that you've rebelled against your lord. Bagio said coldly to the man, he didn't look at Rick, just looked at the man coldly.

"But he raped my daughter!" the man screamed at Baggio.

"Maybe you didn't resist at the time, Rick might have taken your daughter to the city to be a high-ranking maid or something. ā€

Baggio said unhurriedly to the man, as if being raped wasn't a big deal.

"That's what I thought at the time! Although the daughter of a lowly poor family can't be my concubine, I can give her a good life!"

Rick heard Baggio's words and immediately spoke of it, though at the time, he probably hadn't thought of it that way.

"You demons, you are a nest of snakes and rats, I curse you to hell, I curse your family to ruin, I curse you to spend the rest of your lives in remorse!" the man cursed through gritted teeth, for he felt that everything was hopeless.

Baggio frowned and shook his head slightly, he looked at Rick, Rick looked at him too, Baggio nodded at Rick slightly, Rick understood, and pierced the man with a single shot.

"Lord Baggio, why would you waste your time listening to such nonsense!"

After Rick killed the man, he and Baggio got on the horse together, they didn't care about the corpses here, someone would always find them, and someone would always deal with them.

"I wanted to see if he had a good reason. Baggio said truthfully.

"Hmph, what can these lowly poor people justify! they're all sluts!" scolded Rick.

"I don't appreciate that you would rape a pauper, even so. Baggio turned his head to the side and stared at Rick coldly, making Rick sweat.

"But having said that, I wouldn't offend a nobleman for the sake of a poor man, not to mention that this nobleman has given me a lot of convenience. ā€

When Baggio said this, he smiled, and Rick saw that Baggio didn't blame himself too much, and he also laughed heartily, as for those poor poor people just now, who would care, this is the Midtown Federation, this is the society where power is supreme.

Baggio returns to the manor, where a big surprise awaits him. Fonta Alice arrives at Baggio's manor, waiting for his return.

Bagio saw Alice, greeted him warmly, and hugged Alice firmly, Alice was also very happy, and the two kissed passionately. Rick knew each other well, and when he saw this scene, he immediately told Baggio that he had important things to deal with, and he quit.

"Oh, my princess, why are you here? Didn't I write to you to say goodbye tomorrow when you hunt?" said Baggio, stroking Alice's hair.

"My family and I have been here for two days, and I haven't been able to see you so close for the past two days, it's really uncomfortable, I really can't wait for tomorrow, Butch, I miss you so much. ā€

Alice lowered her head shyly, and she pressed her forehead against Baggio's breastplate, trying to feel Baggio's heartbeat.

"My princess, I miss you very much, I've been here for a few months, and it's so painful not to see you for a few months. Baggio stroked Alice's cheek, he had always been very gentle with her.

No matter how many words are spoken, I will not get tired of talking, for these two young people who have been separated for several months, for these two enthusiastic young people, tonight will be a very unforgettable night......

On the second day, the hunting day of the Fonta family, Baggio got up early to prepare, after all, on this day, he was very close, when he got up in the morning, Alice was still playing with him, not letting him go, Bagio had to comfort her, Bagio kissed Alice's small mouth, and left the manor, he needed to supervise many things first.

At about nine o'clock, the members of the Fonta family and some friends arrived at the hunting area, led by Fonta Narus, followed by Fonta Eduardo and the head of the Federal Tactical Academy, Tarkin Nolan, and Baggio's father, Lee Bosser.

After Bagio saw Narous, he hurriedly greeted and saluted, Narus smiled and helped Baggio up, he was very satisfied with the arrangement of Bagio's hunting season, and as Bagio's direct leader, Nolan was also full of praise for Bagio's hunting season arrangement.

Most of the members of the Fonta family have come to the hunting season, Krum, Akpos, Jacca, Alice and Lilia are among them, Siris can't come because he has to deal with the affairs of the Fonta Black-robed Mage Society, this Bagio knows, but Le Mans is not among them, this makes Bagio slightly disappointed, because Le Mans is a person, Bagio is still very favorable.

Three of Narus's four henchmen also came to the hunting season, namely the silver fox Dakra, the fat Eposton, and the poison lynx Attila, and the other henchman of Narus, Baggio has only heard her name, but has never seen her, this person is called Anna, nicknamed the Faceless, from the analysis of the name, she should be a woman.

When it comes to hunting, the other young people are the real focus compared to Fonta Narous, who is more involved in the hunt, with Krum and Baggio being the most prominent. Baggio happily competes with Krum to see whose prey is more, and Alice is always by his side, which makes Baggio feel even more happy.

Lilia and Rihanna have now become best friends who talk about everything, and these two little girls don't know where to run for a long time.

During the hunt, Bagio noticed Coriano who was alone, and Bagio beckoned Coriano and wanted him to hunt with him, but Coriano didn't seem to notice Bagio and didn't come, so Bagio wanted to go over to Coriano.

Baggio has been busy with so many things lately that he really doesn't talk to Coriano anymore, and Baggio thinks that the two brothers should take this day to have a good chat and promote the relationship between the brothers.

Baggio was about to go to Coriano, but was stopped by his father, Bossel.

"Butch, come here, there's an old acquaintance here who wants to see you. ā€

Poser laughed as he greeted Baggio, who had no choice but to walk over to his father.

Standing beside Poser was a chubby man in his thirties, who laughed when he saw Baggio, who recognized him at once and laughed happily.

"Tallie, you're here for the hunting season too, and I mean, why didn't the last hunting champion appear, why didn't you participate in the hunting season this time?"

Baggio looked excited, and it was clear that he was very fond of the man named Tully.

"Ah...... I...... I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in the hunting season this year. Tully lowered his head, scratched his chin helplessly, and said with a wry smile.

"Why? are you hurt, uncle, are they with you?" said Baggio, as if something was wrong.

"Ah...... They...... The family is dead......" Tully still smiled wryly, and from his face, it was impossible to tell whether it was sadness or what kind of emotion.

"How so? Could it be that the Babayaro family ......" Baggio Yuan opened his eyes with a look of disbelief.

"Yes, my child, from now on there will be no more Babayaro and no more Babayaro Tully. ā€

Poser smiled bitterly, Babayaro and the Li family, that was a family friendship, but now, the Babayaro family has disappeared since then.

"How is that possible?!!The Babayaro family of Sirius Castle!That's the generation of nobles of the Midtown Federation!" Baggio shouted.

"Actually...... Our family has been wiped out by our sub-clan, the Frey......" Tully still smiled wryly, looking helpless.

"The Freys, the Frey Ayews?" asked Baggio, anxiously.

"Yes...... It's ...... them," Tully scratched his head.

"Father, can't you get the reputation of the Babayaro family back?" Baggio asked, turning his head and asking Bosser.

"No way, the Freys did it neatly, they fabricated evidence that the Babayaro family had rebelled against the ruling council, although we knew it was fabricated, but we couldn't find any flaws in it. Poser said helplessly.

"Shall we just let Frey's little family go on like this, and a family will climb on the head of the main family!" Baggio cursed viciously.

"Power reigns! These are the rules of the game for the Midtown Federation, you should understand, Butch!"

Poser said solemnly to Baggio, who lowered his head, and he also understood that since the matter had come to this, there was no room for recovery.

Baggio looked at Tully with a sad expression, but Tully smiled at him and patted him on the shoulder, and Tully comforted him.

"Talligo, since you have lost your status as a nobleman, how did you come to the hunting season? It stands to reason that you are not qualified to participate in the hunting season of the nobles. ā€

Baggio suddenly wondered, and he thought that Tully might be a prisoner of the Frey family now, and if someone really wanted to capture Tully, should he catch Tully according to the rules of the Midtown Federation. However, Baggio thought that his father would never talk to a fugitive, so he was relieved.

"Ah, actually, the Freys wanted to kill me, after all, I was the last Babayaro...... No, Barbayaro is gone...... However, Ike saved my life. ā€

Tully shrugged his shoulders and scratched his chin again, at this time, Tully was completely devoid of the style of the hunting season that year.

"Ike Eduardo, is that Fonta Eduardo?" asked Baggio, surprised. He had the impression that Eduardo was a man who would only act for the good of his family.

"Yes, it's him, actually, Ike and I have always had a good relationship, and the two of us have some common hobbies and academic research. ā€

Tully smiled, who would have thought that the great Fonta Eduardo would be friends with this ordinary-looking Tully, although Tully was the hunting champion of the last edition, but this is also too different from Eduardo's status.

Baggio shook his head in disbelief, but he couldn't say anything. Eduardo, it's unbelievable, there must be something in his interest in this, otherwise he wouldn't have helped Tali for no reason.

"So, what's next for you? After all, you're not a nobleman, and in the Midtown Federation, the poor are useless. ā€

Baggio is not optimistic about Tully's future, and losing the aristocratic class means living a poor life, which is undoubtedly a disaster for a nobleman.

"Ah...... What's this...... I told Ike that I was going to Twilight City in the Free Frontiers, where it was said to be recruiting Bachelors, and I thought I was qualified to join it. Tully scratched his head and smiled wryly.

The Free Frontier, after all, is the Free Frontier, a place that no one wants to go, but it may be the best place for Tully, after all, it is not a place where nobility reigns supreme and power reigns.
