Kulau, located at the confluence of a river in the Kingdom of Vecchia, is easily accessible by water, and the great benefits of commerce make the city prosperous and prosperous.

"Well, rest here for two days, there is still some way to Zhivadin, and it is said that there are many more robbers on the way. ”

"Yes," Fatis nodded in agreement, "we'll need to take some time to expand our team, and by the way, we'll be able to pick up some tasks from the nearby generation and expand our wallets." ”

This is, Jamila pulled the corners of the clothes of the two people from behind.

"Shall we buy a few horses?"

"Horses?"

"yes, I'm tired from walking all the way. The young girl complained.

Lorna looked back at the already tired team members, and it was not too early to look at the sun on the horizon:

"Go to the hotel and rest first. ”

"Don't mention the horses beforehand, it's very expensive, and the mercenary team is very tight on money. Fatis said to Jamila very dryly.

“”

The group made their way into the city, and the streets of Kurao were far more crowded than the Wocheze, and the commercial area was full of vendors.

"Wow, this is so cute, I want it!!"

"Ah, this is not bad, buy it, buy it~"

"Oops, alas, this, this"

Jamila never stopped, always enthusiastic about the various knick-knacks on the stalls.

"Is it really a mistake to bring her out," the middle-aged man sighed helplessly.

"What's the way, that kind of place at that time. We can't throw her in the wilderness either. The girl explained lightly.

“”

Fatis suddenly laughed, but he just covered his mouth, and the team members around him didn't notice.

"Laughing at what?"

"You're still quite kind, in Wocheze. At first, I thought you were just a guy who only cares about himself. ”

“”

"But that's my fault, and I almost killed you in the end, but what you thought at the time, I can't guess now. ”

The middle-aged man saw that the girl's eyes sank, and did not speak, and when she said this, her expression seemed to change slightly-perhaps to outsiders, Lorna's face had always had only one expression. But Fatis has been with her for more than a month, and it can be vaguely seen that there is an unknown past in her heart, and the feelings that move under the mask-like face. Jamila and the others didn't feel it, but he did.

Is it sad The man thought about himself, the blade of the blood of his relatives flowed, and Fatis felt a little dizzy at that moment

Daytime. There are still a lot of people in the tavern of Kulau. It was twice as large as the Wocheze shop, and Fatis looked around and saw that there were still a few seats available.

"Go your business first, and come here at night. ”

Lorna disbanded the group and sat down around a table with Fatis and Jamila, and the owner of the hotel immediately greeted the guests when he saw them coming.

"Do you want something?"

"A roast chicken, a glass of ale. ”

"A glass of mead. One steak. ”

"I want fresh grapes, um, and toast with tomato sauce!~"

The boss brought up all the things the three wanted, and Lorna paid him some change.

"Oh. Suddenly forgot to mention that there are good freshwater fish here in Kulau~" Fatis suddenly slapped his thigh.

"Well, really?" said Jamila, looking very excited.

The girl next to her cut a small piece of steak and ate it: "Well, I've heard of Kulau's fish, too." ”

"Why, do you want to try the freshwater fish that is a specialty of the city?" the deaf and clear-eyed boss immediately walked over when he heard this.

"Let's have a bigger one, we all want to try it. Lorna nodded at the boss.

"Oh, look at Miss's temperament, she is a person with status, so I'll let the kitchen do it. Lorna just nodded at the businessman's smile.

The boss turned around and walked away, but unexpectedly turned around and bumped into a tall young man, who was holding a glass of beer in his hand, and was shaken like this, and the cup fell to the ground with a "clang".

"Do you have long eyes, how can I pay for my beer?"

Seeing that the young man was about twenty years old and quite handsome, Fatis looked fierce and threatened a thin middle-aged man, so he got up and made a round.

"Forget it, people don't do business on purpose, I'll pay you for this glass of wine"

The young man raised his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, and saw that he was wearing a sword at his waist, and his expression showed a trace of disdain.

"It's none of your business, civilian. ”

“”

Lorna watched the scene in front of her, and Jamila leaned in on her.

"That guy is too arrogant, isn't he?"

"I guess it's a declining aristocracy. The girl pointed to the young man's clothes, and Jamila followed her fingers, and saw that although the clothes were a little old, they were still clean, and both the material and the style were worn by the wealthy.

When Fatis heard the other party say this, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in his heart.

"Your Excellency, is it superior? In this case, don't care about that little glass of wine, do things, talk and consider your identity. ”

"How dare you teach me?"

Only then did the middle-aged man see that the other party was also carrying a sword at his waist, the length was not large, and the workmanship was quite good from the appearance alone.

"If you want to teach me a lesson, you must have the consciousness to accept my challenge!" the young man drew his sword, and the surrounding drinkers consciously checked out and left when they saw this scene, and the boss had already slipped under the counter and let others throw coins on the table, regardless of whether it was more or less

"Oh Challenge"

Glancing at the young man's domineering posture, Fatis had a hint of disdain in his tone. Slowly, he drew his sword.

"Don't do this" Jamila tried to go up to dissuade her, but was pulled by Lorna.

"Let's see, that guy might have two hits. ”

Swords and swords began to collide. The surrounding tables, chairs, cups and bowls immediately suffered, Fatis used to be a cavalry officer in Paravon, swordsmanship was rare in the army, and the young man in front of him had a bit of the showmanship of a noble son, but he also practiced a good skill, and he did not fall behind in the competition with the opponent in front of him.

"Good guys"

Fatis's best moves to defeat the enemy were avoided or defused by the other party one by one, and he couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart. The Virgian's killer skills were blocked several times, and he also showed a look of surprise.

Lorna sat in her original position, carefully observing every step of the two sides, the movement of the hands, and the footwork. And Jamila seemed to be stunned at this time, and tried her best to hide behind the girl.

"Drink—"

A stalemate lasted about three minutes, and both men broke free from the grappling and each took a step back. The blades of the sword are forward almost simultaneously. Even to the uninitiated, it will be recognizable as the exact same trick.

"Bell-"

Fatis's sword flew out of his hand, smashing the bottles and cans on the boss's counter, while the Vicchian sword was planted on a table farthest away, both of them stunned at the same time, and then saw Lorna standing between the two men with her sword in hand.

"Don't make a fuss about a glass of wine, it's not good to do business in the store. As she said this, she glanced up at Fatis.

"It's just that you sit down and talk about it first," Jamila stepped forward when she saw that the scene had eased.

The young man of Vekia was angry, but seeing that the people who came to persuade him were two young and beautiful young ladies, it was not easy to do it again, so the shopkeeper got up from behind the counter. Seeing the mess in the store, I was so angry that I couldn't speak.

"We'll pay you the full amount for the loss of the store. Lorna said as she looked at the shopkeeper.

"Why. At least half of it will be paid by him," Fatis could not believe his ears.

“”

The young man stood aside and listened to Fatis's words, his face changed slightly, but the girl prevented him from saying any more.

"Now let's sit down," Lorna looked sideways at the Vigian, "your sword makes a good and rare outstanding warrior." ”

The Virgian saw the extraordinary temperament of the girl in front of him, and heard her praise himself like this, and his face gradually relaxed, and he turned around and bowed to Lorna:

"Pardon the spur of the moment, this beautiful young lady, and Ellen apologizes sincerely. ”

Cleaning up the scattered shop pù was not a very difficult thing for the owner of the hotel, Lorna gave him 100 dinars as compensation, Ellen was persuaded to come in and sit down, and the fish he had just called was also served, and he still drew his knife to face each other before, and the atmosphere was still embarrassing when he sat together

Jamila leaned close to the girl and looked at the young man from time to time, Fatis didn't quite understand what Lorna was planning to do, and he had nothing to say to the guy, so he lowered his head to eat, and Alleyne looked at the group with a glass of wine, trying to squeeze out a smile, but the air was so oppressive that it was too much to breathe.

"Mr. Alleyne must be someone of status. ”

Lorna finally spoke after everyone was silent for a few minutes.

"Well, maybe, but"

The Vigians wanted to say something, but somehow they couldn't.

"He's a victim of a family succession struggle. But the hotel owner was behind the counter wiping the glass while making it clear, and Ellen blushed and turned white when he heard this.

"What do you mean?" said Jamila, confused.

"Among the nobility, only the eldest son is entitled to inherit the family property," Fatis tore a chicken in his hand and put it in his mouth and munched on it, "When family relations are chaotic, there will be strife, so you know." ”

After listening to the detailed explanation, Jamila nodded, and then looked at Ellene, who was dejected at this time, completely devoid of the majesty of a few minutes ago.

"So," Lorna's expression changed imperceptibly, "if I had a way to get you out of your current predicament, would you like to give it a try?"

A twinkle twinkled in the Vigian's eyes.

"What a way. ”

"That's right, I'm leading a troop right now"

"Hey, you stop me" Fatis almost choked when he heard this, "how can you"

"It's a minimum virtue to listen to the lady finish her words, sir," Lorna's expression was still the same, and Fatis felt as if she was joking, but maybe it wasn't like that, and he hesitated and shut up.

"Oh, so you want me to join, a mercenary group?"

"Yes. The girl nodded, her noble temperament was unmatched, and even Jamila was a little dazed by such a decision.

"How many people are in Miss's team?"

"Counting me and Mr. Fatis," Lorna glanced at the girl beside her, "plus Miss Jamila, there are ten of them at the moment. ”

"Ten people" Alleyne was disappointed when he heard such a number, "Then you and your team have had a proud record"

"Proud of your achievements?" the middle-aged man couldn't help but laugh, "The most proud thing is that a month ago, we relied on three hundred people in the nest car to crush your attack. ”

This astonishing remark made not only Alleyne, but also the boss standing on the side and a few guests who had just taken their seats stunned

"This" Aryne oozed sweat from his forehead, two weeks ago, Taisha and Lord Harris, who had been mobilized to attack Wocheze, were reprimanded by King Yarogark for a crushing defeat, and it is said that only the two of them came back alive, although it is unlikely that ordinary people know what happened to those two people there, but he was still a very high-status prince two weeks ago, and through the social circle of the upper nobles, he still learned the details of that tragic battle
