As the sun sets, a soft afterglow falls on the tallest tower of Morwinburg, the Square of 10,000 people is empty, and the shops along the street are closed, except for a post house with the windows half-open. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At this time, there was still some time before the dinner, and the procrastinating nobles did not arrive in advance, and Aiden bypassed the square and entered Mowenburg, just in time to catch a glimpse of Eugene getting into a black four-wheeled carriage and slowly driving towards the seminary.

He didn't stop, and after passing through the gates of Mowen Castle, he went straight to the main hall.

Two rows of soldiers stood outside the grand hall, and Aiden dismounted and handed the reins to one of the soldiers, his clothes and ermine were splattered with blood on his shoulders, and several blood marks on his cheeks had been dried by the wind, as if he had just experienced a life-and-death battle.

"Lord Aiden, you're back. The servant outside the main hall bowed and said.

"Where's Lord Kenny?"

"The lord is inside, and he's been waiting for you for a long time. The servant took a step back and looked at Aiden with a strange look in his eyes.

"I'm back!"

As soon as Aiden stepped into the council hall, a row of cold spear tips was aimed at his neck, and the soldiers who clenched their spears glared at him, their eyes mixed with a hint of fear in addition to hostility.

The sudden arrival of the iron made him a little panicked, and he immediately recalled in his mind everything that had happened since last night. After thinking about it, I didn't find anything I missed.

"Stand there, don't move!", Kenny's voice came from behind the soldier, "Put the longbow on your back on the ground, and the quiver!"

"Lord!" Aiden shouted through the soldiers, "what's wrong?"

"Do as I say!now!" Kenny's tone was unmistakable.

Aiden put his longbow and quiver to his feet and straightened up slowly, and he saw the soldier get out of the way, and Kenny stepped out of it, looking him up and down with grim eyes.

Aiden had never seen a lord so serious, not even when he staged a coup d'état last night.

"Where have you been?" Kenny asked, cold.

"I followed Alan and Sersi out of town to help him complete his bet with you, and I had your permission before that. Aiden replied truthfully.

"Just back?" Kenny repeats the last three words.

"Lord?"

Aiden's shout brings Kenny back to his senses. "What are you doing?" Kenny asked.

"Go and help Alan complete his and your ....."

"I'm asking you, what exactly did you do with him?" Kenny raised his voice, interrupting Aiden's slurred answer. "Don't tell me that you're going to buy Gilmer's hired knights, and then you can't buy them and you're fighting!"

The precise guess was like a whip dipped in salt water, and it was whipped Aiden's heart, and he was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

At this moment, a series of horses' hooves sounded from far and near, and the soldiers immediately protected Kenny behind him.

Aiden turned around and saw Sersi and Eren arguing and walking towards him.

"You'll need to buy me another dress!" Sersi yelled, pointing to the torn silver rat skin armor on his body.

"Are you crazy?!" Alan exclaimed, "I've already bought one for you!

"But I saved your life again, and that gold coin was to compensate for the loss of the tailor's shop, and we broke the expensive mirror! This dress is not worth a gold penny, and besides, it is torn!" replied Sersi in a striking voice.

"Hey!" Alan looked at Aiden on the steps, "What are you doing? Aren't we supposed to go to dinner? Kenny?"

Aiden stood on the steps with a bitter expression on his face, he still hadn't figured out what was going on.

As Sersi walked up the steps, he saw the soldiers in the temple clenching their spears and glaring at him as if they were facing a great enemy, the sharp tip of their blades sealing the door without leaking.

"Damn it. Sersi whispered in Ellen's ear, "Kenny must have found out we were stealing the gold coins, I said he would be furious!"

Alan glanced at the soldier in front of him, trying to dispel the sharp edge of a spear. "Kenny?" he tried to shout, "what's going on?"

"Stand there, don't move!" Kenny scolded.

"What the hell is going on, my lord?" said Serci, looking inside the temple.

"Someone approached me just now pretending to be Aiden, I don't know if it was witchcraft or an illusion. In short, if it weren't for the Guards by my side, I might have been assassinated by now. Now think about it, and prove that you are true. ”

The voice fell into the ears of the people.

For a moment, the air in the Great Hall was filled with the smell of suspicion.

Those words alerted the three who had just arrived, and Alan and Sersi glanced at each other, and the two of them invariably took a step back and looked at each other.

Alan thought back to what had just happened. Sersi had been out of sight at the tailor's shop, but he had come to his rescue, and Aiden had left first, and no one knew where he had gone or what he had done. The words that the two of them had said kept coming back to his mind, and he looked up at Aiden.

"Golden Retriever, you once received a letter, what was written on it, remember?" asked Alan alertly.

Aiden frowned and thought for a moment, "Lord Kenny needs your help to head north..... Uh....." he paused, his brow tighter, "twenty or thirty miles, I don't remember exactly, but the second half of the sentence was, waiting there for the halflings." ”

Alan nodded, then looked at Sercy.

"Alan. Sersi opened her mouth first, "What did I tell you before I found Aiden last night?"

"You said you wanted to be a martial arts teacher and teach the children of Nipur City, right?" Alan replied, then asked Selcey, "What did I say to the red-haired girl in the inn?"

"Damn, I don't want to leave you anymore!" replied Sersi without thinking.

Alan turned to the hall and shouted, "Kenny, I can prove that they are true, Namu God testifies!"

Kenny stepped out of the soldiers, "Sorry, guys. Because it happened suddenly, it was all for the sake of safety, after all, no one wants to be like Taylor, and become a mess of strawberry jam, right?"

"Of course, it's always good to be careful. Alan stepped forward and looked at Kenny in a fancy dress, "Oh! It's the first time I've seen you in a dress!

Kenny tugged at the tight, stiff collar and smiled bitterly, "I don't know who invented this whimsical way of wearing, doesn't it look funny?

Another rush of footsteps came from outside the hall, and Eren looked back at the hurried men. When the tall and familiar body, as well as the black steel sword at his waist, came into view, he suddenly felt a tingling of his scalp, and a huge coolness instantly crawled all over his back from the bluestone foundation.
