In Nord, especially in these turbulent times, it was not difficult to recruit troops in nearby villages, and for the price of one dinar a week, Fatis and the girl only went to the nearest Odasan and Loire to recruit 24 young and strong boys, although the equipment was a little rudimentary, Fatis was worried, but the girl nodded that it was enough.

"The other party is just a robber. When Fatis asked the girl, she replied.

Half of the village of Jayek was bordered by the sea, and Fatis and his party rested for the night in the Loire, and at dawn they touched the vicinity of the village where the robbers were entrenched, and the girl seemed to be familiar with the terrain of this area, and more than twenty people sneaked to the rear of the village along a very inconspicuous route, while most of the thieves were still asleep.

"Most of them are equipped with skin shields and winghead hammers, which we don't have on our side. Fatis carefully drew the long sword at his waist.

The girl paid no heed to him, but leaned against the wall of the house and looked around, where there was still a faint light of fire in the largest house in the village, and the occasional scolding of men and sobbing of women.

She turned her face and nodded to the Nord recruits behind her, and Fatis straightened up slightly when she saw a few of them, and dived in the direction of the village—it seemed that the little girl in front of her was indeed prepared.

"The best at throwing stones, come over here. ”

Several recruits crawled over on their knees.

"Stand guard with me, Mr. Fatis—" The girl turned her face to the sword-wielding man who was already about to rush out, "you take the rest with you." On the other side of the village, opposite me, I lurked and heard movement in the village. Just kill it. ”

Fatis accepted the plan with suspicion, in fact he did not know how the girl had deployed his twenty or so men, who seemed to have numbered more than forty.

It was not yet dawn, and the robbers were not well-trained troops after all, and the guards were lazy one by one, and Fatis and his dozen men did not make much effort to get to the other end of the village, and looked back at the young people behind them, most of whom were farming or fishing by the sea. They all have a half-understood attitude and inexplicable excitement about the battle.

"Oops!!~"

I don't know who let out a wail, and then the lights in the village came on, and Fatis struggled to adjust to the light. Dozens of thieves came out of the house, most of them unarmed, and some of them had only a club. There is only one pair of shorts on the whole body.

"Who. It's not dawn yet, and the woman is twisting to her waist!! "One of them was a little taller, holding a single knife in his hand, and stood naked in the crowd and shouted. Then, with a "whoosh", a stone hit the man's head accurately and hard, and blood suddenly flowed.

"Someone attacked us !!"

There was chaos in the middle of the village, and the robbers began to hurry into the house to get the guys, and Fatis knew that it was time for him to act. gave an order to the group of boys behind him.

"Okay, let's go!"

A dozen or so Nord strongmen with long axes in their hands heard the boss speak. Immediately copied the guy and rushed out, a group of naked robbers saw this scene, the courage in their hearts had already been half gone, and in the blink of an eye several had been cut to the ground, the girl's side immediately moved, she drew the handguard sword, and five or six recruits also followed her, slashing hard.

The whole battle seemed to be effortless, the attacked thieves were about to collapse, many people did not even wear clothes, and rushed to the entrance of the village naked, and a few people who had been ambushed there released a wave of arrows, and finally Fatis and his party suffered almost no losses, except for a few who were knocked unconscious with hammers, Fatis did not even play half of his swordsmanship, and less than ten of the thieves of more than forty people escaped from the encirclement.

"It's over. The girl walked up behind him, wiped the blood from the sword with a rag, and inserted the sword back in.

"That's how the 5,000 dinars got it??" Fatis seemed to feel a little incredulous now.

"That's it," the girl turned, and all the villagers who had been locked up had been released.

"We're looking for a girl from Viruja right now, and if we're in the middle, let's stand up. ”

The villagers looked at each other, and a young girl in a pink dress stepped out of the crowd.

"I'm from Viruga, please ask you"

"We've been commissioned by your uncle to get you back safely to the Nest. Fatis explained.

Hearing this, the girl didn't show much happiness on her face.

"Then Miss, sue me by your name. The girl standing next to her asked.

"Well, my name is Jamila. ”

When Fatis and his party walked back to the Nest, the sun was just getting brighter.

"Was your family a nobleman before?" the man with the sword asked the girl next to him as he walked.

"Just a little steward in a noble family. The girl didn't even turn her face to this question.

Fatis felt that she didn't really want to answer the question, and the two fell silent for a while.

"Anyway, the woman I rescued wasn't as scared of life as I thought. The girl sighed, and a pink figure appeared behind them.

"Hey, hey~ I found a weapon in the loot that I can wield, sister, look at this" Jamila flashed something from behind her, and Fatis squinted at it, it was a knife that looked like it was made in an ordinary waymanship.

"We're not a mercenary group, we're only recruiting people this time"

"Ah, I know this, sister, you've already told me twice. "Ever since Jamila had spent an hour getting acquainted with the two, she had been clamoring to join the so-called mercenary team, and it was incredible to hear this Fatis, it was unbelievable for a well-educated woman to become a mercenary.

"But what does it matter to set up a mercenary group, take my words. We're going to make it the most famous in all of Nord oh no, all of Calradia."

But no matter how much Jamila pestered them, especially the girl, they were going to ignore her, and the devil knew why she was so reluctant to go back to her uncle. Moreover, if her uncle didn't get anyone, Fatis's 5,000 dinars would be in vain.

"Well, wait, my sister and uncle haven't told me your name since the beginning. ”

This reminded Fatis that he was working with the girl in front of him, but until now he didn't know her name.

"Hey. No, you don't even plan to tell me about this," Jamila looked aggrieved.

"Well, of course my name is Fatis, and I don't have a profession. Fatis realized that he was a little distracted, but suddenly noticed that the girl was looking sideways at him.

"Well, what's wrong?"

"Now that I think about it, I seem to have heard the name in Paraven," the girl's voice became surprisingly small at the moment.

“”

"My name is Lorna. Lorna Monteron is a traveler now. ”

Jamila felt that the atmosphere between the two of them had become more and more strange, and she wanted to say something, but she couldn't think of what to say for a while. I had to go back to the end of the line in a huff.

Back to town. The mayor happily greeted his niece, but there was always a dark cloud between Jamila's eyebrows, but neither Lorna nor Fatis cared about this, let alone the use of force to take the hostages.

The brief exchange of pleasantries soon ended, at which point the mayor motioned for his niece to go back to her room to rest, but let the two Fatis stay.

"There's one more thing I want to ask you to," he lowered his voice when he saw that there was no one in the living room.

"It doesn't seem like a good thing. The girl was lying on the mayor's bamboo chaise longue and sipping a glass of honey.

"Well, that's fine. Here's the thing, there are a lot of robbers in the town right now. Many merchants and citizens were robbed, and a powerful chamber of commerce in the city found that "he motioned for the two to lean their faces over," and the captain of the city's guard had fornicated with a gang of robbers and allowed them to enter the city. So the merchants plan to start a riot in the near future and get rid of the captain of the guard."

Fatis was stunned when he heard this, but Lorna was unfazed.

"Your Excellency wants us to help secretly. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm the mayor of Wocheze, and Lord Iayayar won't agree with a riot, but if you don't care, this already poor town will be finished, so for God's sake, you can help. ”

After listening to the mayor's words, Fatis hesitated, and then looked at the girl next to him, Lorna still had an expressionless face.

"Why is this difficult?"

“”

"This kind of thing that will cause conflicts with the big nobles, forget it. Lorna put down the cup, got up and left the mayor's cabin without looking back, the mayor turned his face to Fatis again, seeing such a scene, he couldn't just agree now, the money for hiring soldiers was a combination of the two, so he also shook his head gently, avoiding the mayor's disappointed gaze, and walked out of the house.

"Leaving?" Back at the tavern, Fatis found that Lorna had already handed the boss a dinar.

"If there is a riot, there will be no security in the city. ”

"Why don't you help them?"

"Listen, I just came to Nord not long ago, and I don't want to provoke a big nobleman, Iayayar, who is a vassal as far as a vassal!"

"But these things are for the innocent people"

Hearing this, the girl raised her face, and although Fatis was imposing, Lorna did not hesitate to bear the resolute gaze.

"In troubled times, there are no innocent people, Mr. Fatis, if you want to say innocent words, you first see if you are worthy of the blood of your own brother on your sword!"

"Enough!!~"

In the next second, Fatis pulled out the long sword at his waist like an enraged lion, and slashed at the girl's head without reason, Lorna quickly drew the sword, and the blade was strong enough to withstand the sword, and the surrounding drinkers and the boss behind the counter were all frightened when they saw this, and no one dared to step forward.

"I've spent six whole years all over Calradia, helping all the people I see in need, and it's not possible to make atonement for all of them to forget about it" (to be continued......
