"What's the problem?' Now that you're my captive, I hope your family can afford to pay the enough ransom. www.biquge.info "Remember?" Eve's attitude Arthur had anticipated, but he still wanted to try to convince Eve not to get into trouble.

"Remember what we're here for? Eve, swaggering around Nord land with Bluebeard is definitely not a good idea. Arthur said that he could foresee the consequences of doing so, and that if it weren't for Falst's reputation, his party would have been drawn on the wanted list.

"I don't care, I'm going to make him suffer. Eve said very firmly, without a hint of rebuttal. "I was so angry with him, how could I let him go so easily. With that, Eve rode forward, leaving Arthur behind.

"Whatever you want, I don't care if something happens. Arthur shook his head, because Arthur was tired from the events of the past few days, and he just wanted to find a place to rest, and no longer think about these trivial things.

As soon as dawn dawned, they had already arrived at York Village, where the people had already begun to prepare, and they watched with some surprise as the group of a dozen people entered their village, but they only glanced at them a few times and ignored them. To the Nords, these armed forces were no longer strange, and most of their men and women could pick up an axe and be a good warrior if they could pick up an axe.

"Hide our adults so that they do not cause a commotion. Eve instructed, she still referred to Arthur's opinion, and was not prepared to be too public, about the matter of kidnapping a lord.

"Don't be so troublesome, my lady, I won't go around preaching about the glorious deeds of my captivity, or being taken by a lady. Bluebeard said calmly, blaming himself for underestimating Eve, or rather, his retinue.

"That's for the best, Jarre. Eve said triumphantly, deliberately quickening her pace, causing Bluebeard to stagger and snicker. "Otherwise, I'll have to find a way to gag you. ”

Eve and the others found a post house in the village, where they rested and waited for the rest of the group to arrive.

"That time we faced a full thirty Kugits, all on good horses and with bows, and I thought to myself, 'It's over, I'm going to be fed to the vultures,' and Orlando came up to them, and said, 'Let me present you a song,' and sang a chivalric hymn to the Kugits. McGid took a sip of water and told the crowd about their glorious history. "And then, the Kugit let you go?" Eve was fascinated by what he said, and he asked immediately as he saw that McGid had stopped suddenly. "Not only that, but they returned half of my goods, and they said, 'I sympathize with you, brother, take care of this fool, he's so pathetic!' 'Hahahaha!' McGid finished telling the story, and everyone including Eve couldn't help but laugh. "you, McGid, it's my singing that touches them. Orlando retorted weakly, except that everyone believed the previous version.

"Yes, to influence the Kugit with your singing, why don't you go and dedicate a song to the Temur Khan, maybe you can end this war. The blonde man said that they had all reported to Eve, who knew that his name was Elias, a dashing man from the harbor, and that he had dozens of Nord men with the same blonde hair as him. "If I am the king, I will make you a statue and put it in the Khan's tent, so that he will always remember your influences, so that the Kugit will not bother us!" his words caused a burst of laughter, and Orlando could not think of any way to refute it, so he could only drink the water from his cup sullenly.

“...... Noon is almost over, and the rest of the earthlings have not yet arrived. Arthur asked with tired eyes, not that he didn't want to get a good rest, but that he had a vague feeling that something was going to happen, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. "It stands to reason that they should have arrived two hours ago. ”

"It's true that they're too slow, something isn't right. McGid groaned for a moment, and began to feel that something was wrong. "Eighty percent of them didn't make it. ”

"It's not safe to stay here anymore, so let's get going. Elias said, looking at Eve, the employer ordered them to act.

“...... Maybe it's just been delayed by something, what if they get here and find out we're not there?" Eve was a little distressed, she didn't have many dinars on her, Arthur and Orlando had hired several mercenaries, and now there was only one here, and she didn't want to give up the rest so quickly.

"Then they might continue to chase us down the road, or simply terminate the contract. Arthur felt that he was getting more and more tired, and had to be brief. "Anyway, we must go, stay a quarter of an hour longer, and have one more chance of being caught by the pursuers. ”

"No, I think it's too late. At this time, Orlando's voice came from the door, and as experienced mercenaries, everyone immediately understood what was happening, grabbed the blades in their hands and rushed out.

As expected, the inn was already surrounded, led by none other than the members of the Knights of the Martyrs, who had been companions to Eve and the others for several days, and they seemed to have an unusual anger and fanaticism.

"Eveluna Falst, and Ruda Bluebeard Valor, you have committed a mortal sin! There is no forgiveness! lay down your arms and accept the fair trial of Muffyria!" was not the arrogant leader they had seen before, but a plain-looking young man.

The mercenaries all looked at Eve and Bluebeard, and Eve looked at Bluebeard, who was also dazed, completely unaware of what they were talking about. "What have you done?" Eve asked Bluebeard, thinking that these men had come to save him. "Hell knows, I thought it was your problem. ”

Eve saw that Bluebeard didn't seem to know, so she said to the knights, "I am Eveluna Falst, please tell me the gentleman of the Knights of Martyrdom to tell me clearly, what crime have I committed?"

"Don't pretend to be crazy, we already know it, you! Assassinated our regimental commander, Master Rafman, last night!" said the man, bitterly and indignantly, clearly in love with his own regimental commander. "You conspired with Bluebeard to brutally murder all the clergy in the church district, and you killed the head of the regiment who just took over the guard!"

"Hell, what's going on?" "It's not the same as it says. "Is it true?Lady Eve?have you ever done such a thing?" This caused a commotion among the mercenaries, and if this was true, they would have to consider whether the commission of a few hundred dinars would be sufficient. "Take it easy, guys, it doesn't make sense. Orlando said calmly, if there is a mutiny now, he and Eve will be dead.

"He's right, gentlemen. Use your brains, if this is true, what were we busy with last night. McGid said sensibly, this matter is obviously unreasonable, eighty percent of it has wronged Lady Eve.

"I, Eveluna Falst, swear to the goddess Embra that I will never have myself or anyone else in my life to murder the clergy and a respected knight master. "This is a big event, not only for his own life and death, but also for the entire Falster family, which can make the fearless Eve feel fear for the first time.

"I swear by my glory that I have never done anything to murder the servants of Maphilia. Someone untied Bluebeard, and he stood up and explained that even he couldn't afford it.

The head of the regiment looked at them, and after a short thought, he said: "I cannot judge whether your words are true or not, but if what you say is true, I will not blame you, so please do not resist, and let us go to the Bishop, and let God judge your crimes." ”

Those knights were well-trained, considered death-wise, and had an advantage in numbers. The mercenaries all looked at Eve, and only she could decide. And Eve, though she felt that it was in her interest to follow her proposal, did not trust these fanatics, and she did not believe that their false gods could make any just judgments.

While Eve was hesitating, Orlando noticed the bag hanging next to the knight's horse, which was still dripping, and he couldn't help asking, "Hey, what are you hanging?"

"A bunch of impudent people who paid for their arrogance. The knight said dismissively, and threw the bag in front of Orlando. Orlando opened the bag, revealing a human head! his face was distorted and unrecognizable, but the raven on his head made Orlando recognize who it belonged to—the Nord warrior in charge of the severed aftermath. "If you insist on resisting, this is what will happen to you. The knight looked down proudly at these lowly mercenaries, who seemed to him to be ascetics, and to spend their lives atoning for their sins, in order to clear themselves.

For a while, the grief and anger of losing their companions also spread rapidly among the mercenaries, but their good quality made them not waver in the slightest, they just looked at Eve silently, but there were other colors in their eyes.

Eve gritted her teeth, the current situation has left her with no choice. "I'm sorry, knight, I must not go with you, I will find a way to prove my innocence. He paused, then said, "And, if you withdraw now, I will not hold you accountable for killing my men." Eve drew her sword and retrieved it as she went. "If not, pay with your lives!"

Eve's attitude lifted the mercenaries up, and they let out a beastly roar to vent their emotions.

The knight obviously couldn't accept this result, he was so angry that his face was distorted, and he only squeezed out one word from the gap in the corner of his mouth: "Kill!" and then the cavalry, which was about sixty people, rode their horses and killed Eve and the others.
