044: Bad news

Word of Orlando's disappearance spread quickly, but it didn't cause much of a stir - after all, Orlando was only a court poet on the surface, and his knighthood was never taken seriously. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Of course, for Eve, she temporarily lost her eyeliner.

But that's not the first thing she needs to worry about, and she soon realizes that even though no one remembers the truth, the devastation caused by the demons is still there. First of all, half of the parish was destroyed and had to be completely renovated. Kyrrydan wasn't short of money, but that didn't mean Eve had a clear idea of how many dinars she was hoarding in her coffers. In the past, this was left to Arthur, but now, she had to do it herself.

It's not that Eve can't manage money, but she's a little powerless for the current grim form. After seeing the mountain of papers in front of her, Eve gave up the idea of taking care of it herself. "What do you command, Lord Earl?" Sammer was not surprised that he had been summoned. In fact, inadvertently, Thornmer has been in charge of Kyle Redan's politics for several days.

"I've heard that during the few days I've been recuperating, you've been entrusted by Arthur to take his place, haven't you?" "Yes, Lord Earl, thanks to Lord Arthur's trust, the villain has the audacity to take over the position of deputy. Sammer's answer was neither humble nor reluctant, which is also a characteristic of the southerners.

Eve nodded, these were the things she already knew, and, judging by the reports she had gotten, Sammer had done a very good job. "Very well, I am not an unkind person, and I will not hold you accountable for not reporting me in this matter. "As is customary, come first with a dismount to show the majesty of your lordship. Sammer is not a man of the world, and he also lowered his profile. "I know that I am guilty, and I ask the Earl to punish me. ā€

However, when it comes to humility, the Southerners and the Karad have different understandings. For Eve, Thornmer's rhetoric was always exaggerated and false. "I said it, I won't pursue it, and I hope you don't question my verdict again. Eve said with some dissatisfaction, which made Sammo a little frightened. "I'm a man of rewards and punishments, and I'll reward you for helping me stabilize Kelrydan's situation. Eve said. "You can ask me anything I want, and if I can, I'll do my best to accommodate it. Or, if you want a good honorarium, I won't be stingy, after all, this is a rich land. Eve first said a few painless rewards, but as she expected, Sammer was unmoved.

"Or. Eve changed her words, and the next words were what she really wanted to say. "You can serve in my territory and dedicate your loyalty to me. Eve looked at Sanmer with some amusement, she had a sense of confidence that Sanmo would definitely agree to the offer.

As Eve expected, Mr. Sammer, who had been calm and composed, was visibly flustered when he heard this undisguised solicitation. "This ...... I ......" He tried to say something, but couldn't get a complete sentence out for half a day.

Sammer asked himself if his trip was not without purpose, but to represent the entire family to come to this foreign land and open up trade routes. However, deep down, I longed to stay here. Sammer felt that he must be enchanted, but there was nothing he could do.

"I ...... I'll have to think about it......" Sammer muttered, unable to choose between his family's responsibilities and his own desires. But Eve doesn't care. "This is the only chance, either stay or, you continue to be your businessman, I will not give you a second chance. Eve put pressure on Sanmer, and all she needed was a definite answer.

Sammer swayed from side to side, not knowing what to do, in the years he had grown up, the family's interests were more important than everything else, this was already a deep-rooted idea. And at this moment, if he accepted Eve's proposal to become a vassal under her command, it would be a betrayal of his own family. It stands to reason that Sammer would not even think about it, and directly refused with righteous words. But the words of refusal, no matter what, cannot be said from the mouth.

Seeing this, Eve decided to put more pressure on her. "Well, maybe I'm too anxious, how can I make my benefactor so embarrassed? Eve said, as if she had helped him make a decision. Eve stood up and gestured to ask Sammer out.

"Please, please wait!, Lord Earl!" Sammer hurriedly stopped Eve, not even bothering to count. "I—I'm willing to do the work of dogs and horses!" Sammer finally made up his mind, not knowing if it was because of impulse.

In a hurry, this sentence was said in the language of the southerners. But Eve knew exactly what he meant. "Very well, from now on, you will take care of everything in the town, big and small, and it will take effect immediately. Eve showed her vigorous and resolute attitude, and immediately gave him a long-term instruction, and before Sammo could react, he walked out of his office first.

She stopped by to see Vivi's injuries. Although the injury was not light, like her previous injury, she recovered quickly and there was no major problem. The only thing that worries Eve is whether Mr. Ritchie's strange potions are still as hard to swallow as she knew.

After "Hu ......" confirmed Vivi's injury, Eve took advantage of no one to notice her, and quietly slipped out of Kyle Redan, these days, she didn't want to worry about political affairs, she had a more unbearable trouble, but at the moment there was nowhere to confide.

When she needed it most, the people she was closest to and most trusted, not only did not come to help her, but took all her own forces, just to find something that was not sure whether he was real or not. Yes, Duke Rum, in the days since Eve's disappearance, took the opportunity to take over the reins of Kyle Redan and re-enter Woodlyn with him in search of the necessary tools for peace talks.

It's not that Eve can't understand what he's doing, it's just that it's still a betrayal when she came. And the most hateful thing is that this is not the first time such a betrayal has happened.

Eve wanders aimlessly around town, just trying to get her mind swayed. Given that she had no intention of dressing up, the townsfolk were somewhat apprehensive about her arrival.

Eve, on the other hand, is unavoided, wandering on her own. For some reason, it seems that whenever I walk alone on a familiar street, something always happens. This time was no exception.

Eve unconsciously walked to the gate of the city, and immediately heard the noise of Gino, the former sheriff and the current head of the security team.

"You filthy fellow, you still want to pretend to be an envoy?!" Gino blocked an embarrassed man from the city, preventing him from entering the city. The man was obviously so weathered that he couldn't even stand on his feet.

How could Eve stand by and watch such a thing? She immediately stepped forward and asked Gino, "What's the matter?" Gino saw that it was Eve who had arrived in person, and his momentum softened a lot. But before he could explain, the man he had stopped ran up to Eve first, and said with tears in his eyes, "I have seen you at last, Lord Earl!" and he fell to his knees, not knowing how much suffering he had experienced. Eve was about to ask him what had happened, when what he said left Eve's mind blank.

"Please, Lord Rum needs your help! He's in danger, he's going to die!"
