vs 6 Conversation
Renner looked at Gray as she said, "Are you doubting my loyalty?" ā
"I don't doubt anyone's loyalty. Gray gave Rena a serious look, then turned to look at the camp in the distance, "Again, I don't trust one person absolutely, I doubt everything and I believe everything, Baron." ā
"It's your right, my lord!"
"You're becoming more and more like a nobleman, Baron Reiner!" Gray grinned, "That's a good thing!" he tapped the hilt of his sword lightly with his leather gloves, making a slight crackling sound, and suddenly asked, "Do you think that Baron Duru can be trusted? I mean, in this battle with the orcs, can Baron Duru be trusted!"
Rena was used to Gray's jumpy conversation, but she was a little confused by Gray's question, and she didn't answer it right away, and after a few seconds of silence she said, "My lord, I don't really understand what you mean!"
As if he hadn't heard Rainer's answer, Gray withdrew his gaze and looked at the rows of arrow towers rising from the ground in the distance of the Sushui River...
He's thinking about it.
A few minutes later, Gray suddenly struck his horse and walked some distance ahead, where he also looked far away, as if he could see a little farther from another place.
Rainer hurriedly followed, stopping the steed beside Gray.
His retinue was stopped by Gray's personal captain, Baron Tacia.
"Do you know what it means if we lose this battle?" Gray's tone seemed to be talking to himself, as if asking Reyner.
"Of course we know, the South will no longer be able to resist the orcs!" Rainer followed Gray's gaze, "So, we can't afford to fail!"
"I am glad of your faith, Baron!" said Gray, "it is good for the war to have the necessary confidence in the commander, but I think the orc commander is more confident than you and me! because, according to reliable sources, the orcs have increased their forces in the south, and I feel like a big hand is in control of all this..."
Gray leaned into the saddle to relieve the weight of the armor squeezing on him, and he asked, "What do you think of the assassination that took place in Seca City some time ago?"
Rena didn't dare to say anything about it, she wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she found that it was better to be silent.
So, she was silent.
Gray squinted at Reiner, then continued, "The Knight of Zamba has found a clue, are you interested in knowing?"
"What clue?" asked Rena subconsciously, but after asking, she regretted it a little, she didn't like to be involved in those struggles, never to.
But Gray obviously didn't want to let Rena stay out of the way, and after he heard Renner's question, a smile appeared on his face, and then he became extremely cautious, he said: "There is some evidence that the assassination was planned by some great nobles who can decide the fate of the South, which is undoubtedly shocking!"
This information was sent by Vic on the eve of Gray's departure from Trifurcation, with the Gray who had met at the Seka City Hall.
From the day of Gray's assassination, Weiss waited in the cellar for three days, and when everything seemed to be calm, he walked out with the woman named Katie and his young men.
Weiss was going to ask his subordinate Art to leave with some gold coins from the cellar, but Art stubbornly said, "I'm going to prove my loyalty, boss, I swore an oath!"
Vis was silent about this, and a day later he agreed when he got a new identity from the Zamba Knight.
He needed manpower, and Art seemed to be loyal, after all, not everyone could resist the temptation of half a cellar of gold.
Zamba knew very well why Vis had waited so long to show up, but he didn't have an opinion, but rather admired it, and Vis had brought him a truckload of gold coins, knowing that the entire South was now worried about the money to fight against the orcs.
No one can withstand the interrogation of the security department, and Zamba has recruited many experts in this area over the years, and they are very experienced in this area, and they will do everything they can to force out what you are afraid of, and then use it to torture you and break your will step by step.
Imagine that when your worst fears or things appear to you or happen in front of your eyes at all times, can you endure those days? Don't forget, there are inhuman tortures that are destroying your will!
When the fear could not be dispelled, Katie was quick to speak.
According to the confessions of Katie and Bud Ewell, as well as the confessions of the city guards of Seka, Zamba quickly found useful clues, and then according to these clues, he found the heads of these nobles very smoothly.
These people didn't deliberately hide it, maybe they thought that the plan was perfect and couldn't fail, or maybe they weren't afraid that Gray would find out about them.
But anyway, it's the truth!
Heart-wrenching facts.
Knowing that this matter was not up to him, Zamba asked Vic to rush to the front line as quickly as possible to dictate the results of the case.
"The most crucial issue is not these nobles, but the people behind these nobles, these people all have one thing in common..."With that, Gray turned his head to look at Rena, who looked at the vassals who had followed him from the beginning with scrutinizing eyes.
"What do you have in common?" Ryner looked at Gray without fear.
"They are the core force of the Ella family in the south!"
"The Ella family, the Ella family of the Hoko Islands?" Rena exclaimed when he heard Gray's words, "You mean that this matter has something to do with Duke Acre's own sister, Lady De Rooney, the wife of Grand Duke De Rooney?"
"If there's no problem with the intelligence, that's it!"
"How is this possible? Is that what the Grand Duke meant? He senses that you are threatened?"
Gray's tone was very serious, "It can't be what the Grand Duke meant, their war in the north is even more difficult than ours, he needs me, at least for now!"
Rena's heart involuntarily beat faster, she thought for a moment and said, "There may be people who are playing tricks on this, or maybe some of your decisions are hurting the interests of these people, but this should have nothing to do with the Duchess, I really can't think of any reason for her to want your life!"
"Perhaps, but I don't have time to confirm that right now. Gray stared at Rena, "Rena, if this battle fails, you should know what awaits me, right?"
"My lord, whether you succeed or fail, I will be with you!" Rainer's tone was like a solemn vow.
"No, I don't need to!" Gray glared at Rainer with sharp eyes, "If this battle fails, you must flee back to Harrence City as soon as possible, don't veto my words, this is an order, you are needed there, Baron Rainer!"
"Iā" Rena didn't know what to say, she never thought about what would happen after the defeat.
"Hehe!" Gray chuckled, he looked at the busy soldiers in the camp below and said: "The orcs have increased their troops, if this battle fails, they may continue to penetrate deep into the south, in this regard I have asked Viscount Keith to prepare for the back, if I die in battle, the first thing you have to do is to kill him, he is more dangerous than the orcs!"
There was confusion in Rainer's eyes, and she didn't know how to answer.
"Mark my words. Gray's tone accentuated.
"Yes, sir!" Rena nodded.
