Chapter 146: Meeting an Old Friend in a Foreign Country
"You're funny, little one, and you ran back and ran into me again...... Repeated defeats, perseverance, I'm curious, how did your master mistreat you?" Ryan sat beside the fire, speechless as he watched the little fox lying on the ground and shrunk into a trembling mass. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "Don't shake, for the sake of you being about to generate income for me a second time, I won't do anything to you. ”
The giant wolf looked down and sniffed her excitedly, and then stretched out his tongue and licked the little fox's white hair, this intimate action frightened her into screaming again, rubbing behind the man and turning into a human form, stammering so much that she couldn't speak: "Money...... There's money in that bag, a lot of money, take it all, I'm ...... I'll do whatever you want and keep it away from me. ”
"Whatever I do, hehe, the orc girl may be a rare stunner to others, but I can see a lot more, and 'not touching the customer's things' is my bottom line. Nakalya licks you just because she likes you...... Well, maybe I like the smell of that kid on you. Forget it, sit down, you're scaring her. The monster hunter shrugged and waved at his fellow she-wolf. "But you, did you get worse, not only ran away, but also smoothed out all the things in the master's house?"
"I didn't. The little fox girl was aggrieved, and her tears were about to fall again.
......
When the demon wolf jumped up and bit her up the tree just now, she was really scared that she was about to pee, but when she came back to her senses, she found that she had actually met an old friend...... Well, it's not a friend, the giant wolf bites her, grabs her and runs back, so she is caught by the monster hunter for the second time.
Afraid that the other party would misunderstand something, she quickly told Ryan everything that happened to Rhodes, from the jousting tournament, the assassination of the king, to the day and night when he escaped and was hunted down, and finally the boy was captured...... Before and after, he said nothing but that the hunter did not suspect what had allowed the big wolf to eat him.
"You're being hunted down?" Ryan was a little confused, Dieter had hired himself to follow the caravan in case the hunt struck again, but nothing happened for a long time after entering Antelli, so he left the team to do his job. That period of time was enough for him to discover the abnormality of the caravan members, there were three of the dozen or so guards who were not weaker than themselves, and the great swordsman named Grom was even stronger, so a strong guard lineup, who could hunt them down?
As for the wanted warrant for the King's assassins, he did see it in the village he had recently passed through, but he didn't look closely at the time, let alone notice that there were two familiar faces on it...... It's not that he's careless, it's a matter of habit: he only deals with non-humans, not the work of a bounty hunter, and remembering the contents of the wanted warrant is not only useless, but can be embarrassing when he encounters a fugitive.
"Yes, the people who chase and kill are powerful...... There are also mages inside. The little fox girl couldn't think of many complicated words to describe the thrill of the two battles, so she could only give up the detailed description, "There were two fights yesterday, and I was frightened when I watched from the side"
"But isn't that kid the son of some big man in Midland, how could he run away to assassinate King Antelli?" Ryan doesn't understand politics, but he also understands that a fool would swagger to the capital of another country to assassinate the ruler with a large number of guards and a rare silver fox girl...... He didn't believe Rhodes was an Assassin at all.
After asking the little fox girl a few more words about the details, the monster hunter suddenly had a rough guess: "I'm afraid that the person who chased and killed you was not sent by Antaili officially, it may be that kid provoked someone in the country, and they used their power to deal with him when he left the empire...... Tsk, what can I do now, I originally wanted to send you back to the master to get another reward, that kid is quite generous. ”
"There's a lot of money in that bag......"
"That's someone else's money, a gentleman loves money, and he takes it in a good way, understand!" Ruien shook his head resolutely: "That's it, do you an orc know what a gentleman is...... And I'm not a gentleman, I'm just an executioner. But the executioner also has the right to stand up for his principles, and since your master has been caught, what shall I do with you?"
"No, no, you're a gentleman...... You're not going to hurt me, are you. The little fox girl didn't know what a gentleman was, but she also understood that it was a compliment, and she blinked her big teary eyes and glanced at the giant wolf staring at her in fear.
"Poof, little one, is it a little more natural to pat yourself on the back?" the hunter was amused, "Forget it, if you can't find a place to go, follow me first." But I have to sleep with Nakalinya at night...... Don't see the ghost-like expression, okay, she is a she-wolf can't ** you, and when you fall into the hands of others, you will find that humans are the most brutal creatures in the world. ”
(I'd rather be ** by you than sleep with that guy) The little fox girl thought to herself, but didn't dare to say it. He shivered and looked at the she-wolf, but when he saw that she stood up and walked towards her, she was so frightened that she had already hid behind the hunter and could not avoid it, and she did not dare to transform and run away in front of them, so she could only freeze and remain motionless and resign herself to fate.
Fortunately, the demon wolf did not come to lick her, but rubbed to the master's side, wagged his tail and whined a few times.
"Hmm, what's wrong?" Ryan scratched the she-wolf's head, not understanding what she wanted.
The she-wolf gestured to the little fox girl and wagged her tail again.
"What, you're going to eat her?" the man joked, still not understanding the meaning of his animal companion, and exchanged expressions with expressions and gestures without a word, and his face became serious.
"Oh...... No, Nakalya, that kid may have been wronged, but it has nothing to do with me, with his identity, as long as he doesn't die, someone will inevitably come to save him, and it's not our turn to worry. ”
"Woo-woo-"
The little fox girl looked stupidly at the one person and one ** stream on the side, I don't understand how the man understood the beast's words, could it be that he is just laughing at himself? He has encountered a neuropathy? Will he suddenly have a seizure and hurt himself...... Or try to run away again in the middle of the night, and wait until the she-wolf sleeps......
The little fox girl nervously pondered her way out, while the monster hunter and his animal companion exchanged guesses and experiences in a daze, and Ryan finally made a compromise: "Grandma, didn't that kid just throw a gold coin to buy you meat to eat, and you like him so much? Alas, okay, let's go find him, but let's talk about the ugly ahead, if he is locked up or executed, I won't risk saving him." ”
The demon wolf nodded excitedly and wagged his tail.
It was already dark, and the monster hunter had planned to spend the night here, but now that he had a plan, he extinguished the fire, packed up his things and led the horse: "What about you, why are you standing stupidly, either get on the horse and get into the cage, or let Nakalya carry you...... Take your pick. ”
The demon wolf sniffed at the little fox girl again, so frightened that she quickly turned back into a fox and immediately got into the cage, although it was not a good experience to be locked inside, but at least the big wolf could not get in.
The she-wolf was naturally very familiar with Rod's scent, and when the hunter got on the horse, she consciously began to lead the way in front without urging her. One man, one beast and one orc, this strange lineup rushed to the town where the boy was at the moment under the light of the setting sun, and the person they were looking for was about to make the biggest decision in his life - suicide.
