Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Bastard Daughter Kayla

Ankitan City is a seaport city, with strong walls except for the seaside side, and the naval power of the dukedom on the sea surface surrounds the city's sea transportation and prevents enemy attacks from attacking from the sea. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Leander Fairlist, the head of the Angitan court, the treasurer and the designated regent of the Duke of Anjitan, is one of the entrepreneurial elders who came out of the mercenary group with Alain.

Leander was responsible for all matters in the dukedom during Alain's absence, and was one of Alain's most trusted companions.

The sudden war had left this brilliant steward busy, and few of the vassals and signmen who had been mobilized in a short period of time were able to reach the city of Anjitan to assemble, and most of them were intercepted by the prepared army of the Knuayes family on the way.

However, relying on the relationship in the past, Leander still increased the defenders in the city to more than 10,000 through mercenaries, although 6,000 of them were mercenaries, but the more than 30,000 people outside the city were difficult to launch an effective attack on Anjitan City in a short period of time - although they were able to break through the city walls, the narrow streets compared to the plains outside were not suitable for the opponent's numerical performance.

Another tentative assault was over, and the defenders let out loud laughs and waved their weapons in celebration of the enemy's defeat as they fled in a hurry after throwing down hundreds of corpses.

Leander was not a qualified general, but he could be said to be a qualified fighter. For morale-boosting reasons, the slightly obese middle-aged man also took his sword and went to the city wall for a battle - under the protection of adequate guards.

Gently wiping the blood of the long sword in his hand with the burqa on his body, Leander retreated from the battlefield after the battle, because as a regent, he was an acting duke in theory and in substance, and his morale was already boosted by the duties of a duke, and now he also needed to go back to work.

"Lord Regent!" a fat woman ran through a line of soldiers towards Leander.

Leander's brow was furrowed at the woman's call, who knew her as the guardian of Kayla, the illegitimate daughter of the Duke of Alain.

Kayla was a child brought back by Alain six years ago, when Kayla was only two years old, and Leander and Alain later learned that it was the product of an abusive affair with Alain, and that his mother was just a prostitute.

Leander waved his hand to signal the guards with him to let the other party go, and the long sword in his hand was inserted back into the scabbard regardless of the bloodstains on it: "What happened?"

"Something happened to Miss, she's ...... now," the woman's fat face kept shaking as the other party gasped, "she's outside the prison door now!"

Leander looked at the other party's vague description in bewilderment, why did that well-behaved and obedient little girl with low self-esteem suddenly appear outside the prison door?

"Ma'am, go and rest for a while!" Leander, who had been in and out of various social places, had developed a humble gentlemanly quality, though he maintained an egalitarian attitude towards those who were far inferior to himself.

"Let's go to the prison right now!" Leander ordered the guards around him to change the direction of their travel.

What the hell is in the prison? Except for the accidents of the criminals who are usually captured, there are only a few enemy spies who have been captured in these days.

During the war, the streets had become very scarce, and the area near the prison was supposed to be crowded, but it was crowded with people who came to see the excitement, and most of them were idle mercenaries without tasks. Anjitan's guards continued to disperse the influx of mercenaries, but the sheer number of them made the guards feel overwhelmed, and the source of this did not pay any attention to the persuasion of the jailers and guards.

Kayla is a young girl with Midur features, long black hair, blue eyes, and no physical features similar to her father's. ”

Kayla in a white dress stood at the door of the prison in a daze, there were a lot of splattered blood stains on the white dress, and the blood stains were still all over her immature face, and her originally white and tender hands seemed to be soaked in a pool of blood, bright red and bright red to see the original skin color.

Kayla, whose eyes were blank, silently glanced around at the mercenaries who had come to watch the bustle, wondering what was the cause of the girl's almost out-of-focus eyes.

The warden of the prison is now anxiously persuading this little lady to leave here immediately, even if she does not leave here and wash her hands first! The innocent warden did not know what was going on here, and he had just come out of his home to work in the morning when he found that this little lady had staggered out of the prison, and that was what it was now.

Although he didn't know what was going on, he immediately understood that it was difficult for him to get out of it! The most difficult thing for him to explain to the mercenaries around him who only knew about the invention news and didn't know how to verify it was that this little lady looked like she had been played badly and had come out of prison.

The mercenaries have now made up several versions of the story, all of which are heavy stories about the warden of the beast or the jailer who prey on a young girl.

Leander, with the help of the guards, struggled to push away the mercenaries who stood in his way. Although he didn't know what was going on in front of him, Leander still felt creepy from the discussions of the mercenaries along the road - the versions of those mercenaries were more evil than the other, and it seemed that there were many loyal fans of Marquis Sade.

Seeing Kayla now, Leander felt his pupils shrink violently.

"Kayla, what's going on?" Leander pushed away several mercenaries and order-keeping guards in front of him.

"Uncle Leander is here, don't be afraid!" patting the girl's immature little face gently, watching the grown child become like this now, Leander constantly checked whether he had suffered any injuries on his body.

After a brief examination, Leander did not find any injuries on the child's body, except for some inexplicable splattering blood stains on his body, there was nothing wrong at all. But the blindness of his vision made Leander feel extremely cold.

"Listen to my uncle, let's go home first, shall we?" he gently tugged at the towering little girl, but no matter how hard Leander tried, he could not move it even a bit.

"Uncle Leander. Kayla was silent for a long time before she slowly looked at the person who was pushing and pulling her

"It's okay, don't scare your uncle, okay?" The girl's response made Leander's anxious expression immediately bring joy, if the other party had always been so weird, he didn't know how to explain to the duke.

The bloodstained face has a sunny smile that makes people feel a kind of trembling from the heart.

"They screamed in pain. Kayla's eyes slowly gained focus and brightness, but the joy in them frightened Leander, who was close at hand.

"Kayla had a great time. Kayla whispered to Leander, seemingly not satisfied, and the ethereal voice demanded to Leander, "Kayla wants to play again." ”

With unexplained words, Leander put the back of his hand on the other man's forehead, feeling the normal body temperature coming from the other party. I don't know what happened to make the other party look like this.

With the arrival of Leander, the rest of the matter became much easier to deal with. The massive idle garrison dispersed the mercenaries one by one, and everyone present was given a gag order - although the gag order was not the same, if nothing else, the story of the duke's illegitimate daughter would have spread in countless versions. Such a thing is quite detrimental to the current critical situation.

Kayla has been relocated back to her room, and in order to prevent accidents, Leander has specially arranged for two soldiers to guard the door of Kayla's room, which has now become a disguised house arrest.

Sitting in the office of the Duke of Anjitan, Leander asked the spy chief in front of him, Carol, a fat middle-aged man who was also a eunuch.

"Lord Regent, that's all you want. Carol used her fat hands to gently push several confession transcripts and observation notes from the scene in front of the other party.

The anxious Leander quickly took the information sorted out in front of him, and after reading it quickly, Leander's mood became extremely heavy.

As if in prostration, Leander weakly put the information on the table: "Can we still block the news now?"

"It's irreparable. The chief spy manager replied helplessly, "There are too many witnesses, and it is impossible to block them now, and our ban on the spread of the news may also allow people with intentions to use it." ”

"So, you have to find a way to turn all this news into rumors. "The irreparable situation makes the regent feel that he can't do it again, but the act of reducing the impact still needs to be done, otherwise it will inevitably cause some bad effects on the body.

"As you wish. Carol, who received the order, immediately left to arrange for his subordinates to make all kinds of preliminary preparations.

In the prison, the five enemy spies in prison were all tortured to death by Kayla, and there were many prisoners in the prison as witnesses.

"What the hell is going on?" Leander sighed when he looked up, the other party was a well-behaved and introverted girl a moment ago.
