Chapter 66: Truth and Lies

"Poof!" a sharp dagger plunged into the Baron's heart, and a small soft hand covered Baron's mouth, desperately trying to make a sound. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info's other hand grabbed the dagger and stirred the dagger into the baron's chest vigorously, and in an instant, the originally strong and powerful heart was shattered.

Baron Baron felt the life force passing, and he looked at the bewitching woman suspiciously, wanting to ask why.

"I've been a slum kid since I was born, and I have no other way to be a thief or a ****. I've had enough of this life, and even though you've gotten me out of the gang fight, you're just coveting my beauty. Now that you've been abandoned, why don't you use it as a stepping stone for me to climb up, and I'm sure your head will win the hearts of wizards. As long as I win the favor of the wizards, a casual reward will give me great power, and I will be able to escape the life of being the plaything of you nobles. Farewell, my dear Baron. With that, the dagger was pulled out and Baron Baron's throat was slit.

When Baron Barron was completely silent, the bewitching woman pulled out the cross sword on the wall, then cut off Baron's head with force, and found another piece of clothing to wrap Baron's head, pushed open the back window and jumped out of the room.

As Baron's mistress/wife, the bewitching woman was obviously familiar with the layout and patrol time of Baron's mansion, and coupled with her skills as a thief in her early years, she easily escaped from Baron's mansion. Disappeared into the night with the cloth bag wrapped around the baron's head.

At this time, a grand banquet was being held at the Earl's Palace, and several nobles who were good friends with Glamorgan were accompanying Kenan and his party with their respective relatives. Although they were only a few wizard apprentices, in the southern peninsula, where wizards were rarely seen, wizard apprentices naturally became the target of the nobles. After all, in the era when there was no universal education, the aristocratic class, which monopolized knowledge, practiced elite education, and no fully educated aristocrat was a real fool and would offend the real ruler. Although Lilith's hut clearly stipulates that wizards are not allowed to harm ordinary people at will outside, what if they are hated? The wizard's methods are strange and abnormal, and if he is secretly hacked, he doesn't know how he died. Could it be that the Wizarding Academy would really send a wizard to investigate it carefully? Therefore, as long as the wizard apprentice does not go too far, most of the academy will not delve into it. There are countless bloody cases ahead, and even the stupid nobles know how to please every wizard apprentice who passes by. Who knows what these evil stars will do.

While everyone was drinking and chatting, a guard suddenly ran in and whispered a few words to the Earl of Glamorgan. The old earl didn't dare to make up his mind after hearing this, and turned to Martin and whispered, "There is a woman outside who asked to see her, and said that she brought the head of the master behind the Sea Shark Gang. Would you like to see you?"

Martin thought for a moment before saying, "Since everyone is here, let's bring it in and have a look." ā€

When the earl heard the order, he hurriedly ordered the woman to be brought in.

After a while, the bewitching woman was brought in by the guards. When the woman entered the hall, she saw the four people who were held by many nobles and stars, and hurriedly presented the package with the baron's head.

Martin took the package and put it on the table, "What's your name, why did you kill him, and what do you want?" ā€

The bewitching woman hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Honorable wizard, my name is Becky, I am a mistress of Baron Baron, I have lived in the slums since I was a child, and for the life of my sister and me, I am in a gang of thieves. Then one day, Baron Barron fell in love with my sister, and Baron Barron brutally murdered my sister. In revenge, I gradually approached Baron Baron, and eventually became his mistress. There were several chances to die with Baron Baron, but I was not willing to die like this. Today, I finally got my chance to get my revenge. However, I don't want to live the life of being bullied like before, and I hope that the wizard will take me in, even if it is willing to be a maid. ā€

Martin touched his chin and looked at Becky. "Did you know that the world of wizards is much bloodier and more brutal than the battles between nobles, and that a little carelessness can be a matter of shattering one's bones? You must know that in the world of ordinary people, the end of human beings is death. In the wizarding world, sometimes death is just the beginning, and sometimes it will end up worse than death, are you willing to accept such an outcome? If not, I can give you a fortune to live in peace. ā€

"No, my lord, I am willing to follow the side of the adult and die without regrets. Becky burst into tears.

"Well, well, now that you've decided, I'll take you in as my follower for the time being. But your strength is too poor, I need to find some way to improve your strength, you go down first. ā€

"Thank you, sir. Becky was taken down by the guards.

"Why did you suddenly remember to take in a follower?" Kennan wondered.

"I accidentally obtained a recipe for a secret medicine on my last mission, and I asked someone to make some of it, but there was a shortage of people to test the medicine. Originally, I was going to buy a few slaves to try, but now there are such people who betray their lords and seek glory to come to the door to test how effective the medicine is. Martin said lightly.

"You are willing to kill such a beautiful woman? You don't have any sympathy for such a miserable background? I heard her say that it was to avenge the tragic death of her sister, and it is understandable to kill the baron. ā€

"Hehe, whoever believes in the words of this kind of person is a fool. I've heard a lot about this kind of miserable life, but even if it's true, what can it be? There are so many such things that we can't control it, and we can't control it. And I didn't say that I would die, if the effect was the same as in the efficacy description, I would definitely increase my strength after taking it, and I would be able to reach half of my level with a little training. The only drawback is that the life span will be greatly reduced, and the higher the hands-on strength, the faster the life will be reduced. Eventually, they died in battle. ā€

After listening to Martin's words, Kennan felt a little uncomfortable. After all, it's one thing to kill someone, it's another thing to use people for experiments. However, I have to admit that what Martin said also has a point. After all, such a person can kill the baron today and take refuge in you, and tomorrow he may kill you with a backhand and take refuge in someone stronger than you. Such a person is decisive, and he cannot be trusted. Is this really the world of individual cannibalism?

At this time, the Earl walked over, "My lord, Baron Baron has died, and the Baron's Mansion is leaderless at this time, are we going to raid the Baron's Mansion?"

"You can do it. Martin waved his hand.

"Understood. The Count respectfully withdrew and arranged for the raid of Baron's mansion.
