The destruction of the Wolf Tribe was not enough to extinguish Baron Cullen's coveting of Haruna, but it also alerted him that Haruna's village with Leo was no longer the object of arbitrary kneading before. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Not long after Baron Cullen received the news, Frank's subordinates who had been sent to contact him also learned of the incident from other sources, and immediately hurried back to the imperial capital and brought the news back to the Covinus family. However, the subordinate did not go directly to see Master Frank, but sent the news to Brown Stritch, the newly appointed butler of Viscount Covennas and the son of the old butler Norman Stritch.

"Yes, I didn't expect Frank to do this, and I didn't expect that even Leo had such a deep city, and he actually knew that Taoguang had started a new stove, pretending to be an idiot for so many years, and even my father had been deceived, so I really underestimated him!" Viscount Covinas said a little distracted after Brown's report. Frank didn't pay much attention to his brother's murder, and it was common for nobles to kill each other for inheritance, and even the viscount encouraged them to use their talents against each other.

Although Brown is the son of the Covinus family, after all, he has not served Viscount Covinas for so many years like his father, so he does not dare to interject at this time.

After muttering for a long time, Viscount Covinas instructed Brown: "Those elite soldiers and swordsmen under Leo can't come out of thin air, and if they can send so many elite masters, only a few big families with a long heritage can do it." Brown, go and ask someone to re-examine Leo's past social history, who has ever been in contact with him, I would like to see which family thinks so highly of my son. ”

"Yes, Lord Viscount, the people around Young Master Leo have more complicated appearances and equipment, and they don't seem to be sent by the same family. After receiving the order, Brown had the courage to advise Viscount Covenas.

"Oh?" the viscount raised an eyebrow slightly, waiting for Brown's words.

Seeing that the viscount showed interest in his words, Brown was slightly relieved, and then said: "Young Master Leo was the first to appear an old man, and later in the fight with the Wind Thieves, a team of soldiers in armor appeared, according to the director of the Oliver Chamber of Commerce, that old man's skills are extremely skillful, at least at the level of a high-level swordsman, and those soldiers are good at battle formations and well-trained, obviously from the military or the private soldiers of the great noble family. But the group of homeless people who appeared later, although they were not afraid of death, were poorly armed and unclothed, and they didn't seem to be from some big force, more like bandits or some kind of non-governmental organization. ”

"Very well, very well, little Brown, you are very good!" said the Viscount, looking appreciatively at his new butler. "Be confident, you have done a good job, and you will be like this in the future, like your father, always remind me and serve me! I believe that you will be better than your father!"

Listening to the Viscount's encouragement, Brown's face showed a grateful look, and his mouth was busy showing loyalty to the Viscount.

"I know what you're saying, go ahead and find out about Chario's past!" The Viscount didn't pay much attention to Brown's excitement, but waved his hand to let him out on errands. A servant, with occasional encouragement, can make him more diligent, but there is no need to be too close, which is exactly what the Viscount does.

It's a pity that what the viscount doesn't know is that after Little Brown, the fledgling loyal and simple son of the family, came out of the study, the gratitude on his face disappeared in an instant, and a gloom replaced him, and the whole person suddenly became gloomy. Brown didn't do what the Viscount had arranged, but sneaked to the Royal Academy of Magic.

"Long time no see! Master Frank. ”

Frank Covinas frowned and looked at the young man in front of him, although Brown grew up in the Covinus family, but because he was a servant, he didn't like Frank, on the contrary, Frank was quite disgusted with this slightly gloomy guy.

"Brown, did you come to me for something?"

As if hearing Frank's disgust in his tone, Brown smiled lightly: "Ha! Master Frank, of course I came to you for something, and I'm afraid it's not a good thing for you!"

"What can you do? If you have something, say it!"

"I wonder if Master Frank sent someone to Barony Cullen a few days ago?" Brown's words made Frank's pupils shrink slightly, but there was no expression on his face.

But Brown's next words made Frank unable to sit still. "What Young Master Frank doesn't know is that although your subordinate has returned, it's a pity that he went to the Viscount's Mansion instead of the Magic Academy, but this is understandable, after all, the Corvinus family is still the Viscount. And I'm afraid the news he brought back will disappoint you, Master Frank!"

His subordinate turned out to be an undercover agent sent by his father, this matter made Frank sit on pins and needles, I don't know how much of his own affairs were known by his father, will it affect his father's opinion of him?

Without waiting for Frank to calm down, Brown sent another blow: "Young Master Frank, the Baron Cullen you contacted also disappointed you this time, although Baron Cullen hired the Desolate Wolf Tribe to attack Haruna Village, but unfortunately your younger brother Young Master Leo hid his strength before, and Baron Cullen underestimated Young Master Leo too much, so he failed!"

"What? Leo's waste still hides his strength? impossible, this can't be!" As soon as Frank heard about Leo, he immediately stood up and scolded loudly, he couldn't believe that that waste Leo would hide his strength.

"Our 'shit-stirring stick' young master is probably not as wasteful as you think, at least he has the support of many forces, and now even the viscount lord is tracking down his backer!Young Master Frank, if Young Master Leo really has the joint support of several big nobles, I'm afraid your chief inheritance is a little dangerous!" Brown's voice was not loud, but there was a hint of threat in his tone.

Being able to become a magical genius, Frank is naturally not stupid, and Brown's words revealed a slight strangeness, which was immediately noticed by Frank. "What do you mean, Brown? What the hell are you trying to do?"

"Since childhood, Young Master Frank has been the pride of the Covinus family, your intelligence, your magical talent are all admired by me, and I believe that the Covinus family will only go further under the leadership of Young Master Frank. Brown straightened his chest and said to Frank, "My father often praised Master Frank when he was alive, so I will never allow Master Leo to compete with you for the inheritance of the Covinus family." Of course, I also hope that after inheriting the family, Young Master Frank will be able to continue to let me serve the Covinus family just as the Viscount trusted my father. ”

Listening to Brown's words of loyalty, Frank's face couldn't help but feel a little strange, he really didn't expect Brown to be his heart, but although he was suspicious, Frank was still excited, with Brown as a butler by his father's side, then everything in the Covinas family could be easily controlled by himself.

"Brown, don't worry, as long as I guarantee my inheritance status, I won't treat you badly. Frank swore to Brown.

"Master Frank, don't worry, the Covinus family definitely belongs to you, and as for Young Master Leo, there is no need to worry about it at all. Brown said.

"Oh, do you have any good ideas to get rid of him?" Frank asked with interest, seeing Brown's disdain for Leo.

"Young Master Frank, you made a move against Young Master Leo before, because you were afraid of implicating yourself and affecting your reputation in the Viscount and noble circles, so you used a conspiracy to kill people with a knife, but this allowed Baron Cullen to grasp your handle, and no matter what you do, you can't get around the eyes of the Viscount, and it is really worth the loss to lower the Viscount's evaluation of you. Brown's words made Frank blush.

In order not to anger Frank, Brown accepted it when he saw it, and hurriedly said his idea: "Although Young Master Leo has been revoked by the Viscount, you don't have to pay attention to his existence at all. However, since we insist on trying to get rid of the troubles, then the conspiracy will not work, so we will use the yang scheme, and use the upright yang plot to deal with Young Master Leo, so that he will not be able to say that he has suffering. ”

"Huh?" ?......Frank can be called a magical genius, naturally he will not be a fool, and as soon as Brown's words leaked, he immediately thought of something.

"Presumably Young Master Frank also thought of it, now the hottest topic in the imperial capital is the news that the Duke of Wagner in the south betrayed the empire and established himself as king, it is said that most of the generals of the Southern Army were bought by the Grand Duke of Wagner, although the Southern Army has been in peace for a long time, but the strength of close to a complete army has allowed the Grand Duke of Wagner to threaten the rule of the empire, it is estimated that it will not be long before His Majesty the Emperor will definitely gather nobles from all over the country to form a counterinsurgency army, and when the time comes, we will operate a little and let Young Master Leo join in with his soldiers。 Swords on the battlefield don't have long eyes, and it is inevitable that something will happen to a nobleman's son. Brown calmly spoke out his whole plan.

"Counterinsurgency, what if Leo's waste really comes back alive from the counterinsurgency battlefield, wouldn't that give him a piece of military merit for nothing?" Frank asked.

"That's right, if you achieve military merits on the battlefield, it will indeed enhance Leo's strength, but, Master Frank, don't forget, as the eldest son of the Corvinus family, you can organize your team to participate in the counterinsurgency as well, compared to in the counterinsurgency army, your noble friends and classmates from the Academy of Magic will help you, and when the time comes, it will be easy for you to arrange for Young Master Leo to go to a battlefield where the battle is fierce, or delay the rescue of the troops. It must be you, not Leo, who can successfully return with military exploits! Even if he can stir things up, he will have to become your stepping stone!" At this point, Brown's face finally showed a hint of cruelty.
