Chapter Twenty-Nine: "Doubts"

"So that's the case, no wonder the intelligence will be wrong, it turns out that our people have been turned against us. Milina looked at Sue with a heavy look on her face and said, "That fifth-order mage is dead. However, if Dad hadn't blocked it for me, I might have died!!"

"Indeed, the finger of death is a magic spell for the living, and it has no effect on my father, who is already an undead. Sue nodded, agreeing with Milena's words.

"Is Su learning magic now??How is he familiar with the Death Finger??" Xiu Yi looked at Su with a puzzled expression, how could he know so much about the magic of the Death Finger??

You must know that this magic is not a famous magic in the living world, and there are not many mages who can use it, so it can basically be said to be a magic for the undead.

"Yes, I'm now a mage apprentice at Chrissy's Academy of Magic. Su said to Xiu Yi with a proud face.

However, he was proud, Milina and Xiuyi's faces had become very ugly, Chrissy Academy of Magic is a place where children aged 10 to 15 learn magic, and Sue, a 25-year-old adult, is still learning magic there, isn't that a repeater!!?

"Su!!Can you tell me what's going on??" Xiu Yi was a little angry about Sue's matter, but who wouldn't be angry?

"Skipping school, skipping school, taking classes one day at a semester, mixing with his noble young masters all day long, not going to school at all. Before Sue could answer, or come up with a reason, Milina broke the truth.

Xiu Yi looked at Sue with a somewhat gloomy face, scared Su half to death, her teeth chattered, and looked at Milena without mercy with a resentful look.

Just then, Covist walked in from outside and exclaimed, "Ma'am, the soldiers are ready!!We can take the Hurricane Collar at any time!!"

"Got it, you go back and tell the soldiers, leave in five minutes, back to the Hurricane Collar. Milina glanced at her first, breathed a sigh of relief, and no longer looked at her Sue with that kind of look that she hated, before turning her head to the captain of the guard, Covister.

"Yes!!ma'am!I'm going to tell the soldiers!!" Kovist saluted Milina and turned away.

Both Huey and Milena, looking at the back of Covist leaving, frowned slightly, not because they were unhappy that he suddenly came in, but because they were a little dissatisfied with his behavior, and even Huey was a little suspicious that he was the captain of a viscount's guard.

The normal captain of the guard will not report the affairs of the guard to the nobles one by one at any time, because the captain of the guard has the power to manage and command the noble guard.

Usually the captain of the guard makes the decision himself, and will not report it to the nobles unless the enemy has already reached the castle.

And this captain of the Covist Guard, no matter what it is, has to report it to Milina, as if he is deliberately letting Milina know what he is doing now.

This behavior is very similar to that of an unruly spy, who is deeply afraid that he will be suspected by others, and his behavior will make others suspect him even more.

"How many years has this Kovest been in your territory???Did he be like this before??" Huey asked Milena, looking at Kovister's back.

"He's from a small village in the Hurricane Territory, and he's been in the Viscount's Mansion for 3 years. Is there any problem??" Milina didn't quite understand what Huey meant, her dissatisfaction with Covester came from the behavior of reporting everything, and she didn't think as deeply as Huey did.

"3 years..."Xiu Yi thought carefully before saying to Milena, "Milena, you should be careful with that guy in the future, that guy doesn't seem to be your own!!"

"Why???Covester is a well-known loyal person in the territory, how could he not be his own?" Milina was slightly surprised.

"What's that guy so faithful? Tell me about it. Xiu Yi said calmly.

He didn't believe that Covist was loyal to Milina or her husband, and that day and night, Huey had seen Covist report to Milina more than 50 times, and at first he was still wondering what kind of excellent guard captain his son-in-law was looking for.

But later, he felt that something was wrong with Covis, the captain of the noble guard he had seen, and Huey's uncle was a viscount who was the same as his son-in-law who had died, but Huey's uncle's guard captain would never report this and that like Kovist.

Whether it was to clear out the monsters or the bandits, the captain of the guard would not mention a word to Xiuyi's uncle, and would only tell the story of the incident when the loot was transported back to the territory.

After all, not all nobles will fight, and if they know about it, it will affect the captain of the noble guard to command those soldiers.

These captains were veterans who were truly loyal to the Empire, and had a wealth of combat experience that was not comparable to those nobles who had never been able to fight.

But Covister's feeling to Xiu Yi is not like the captains of other noble guards, who have rich combat experience and experience in commanding soldiers, but like a novice who doesn't know anything, and has to let Milina think about everything, he is like a herald-like role, which makes Xiui suspicious.

"What, what, what loyalty??Dad, are you a little suspicious??" Su looked at Xiu Yi, and always felt that Xiu Yi was thinking too much.

"Su, Milina said that you spend all day with the children of the nobles, so have you ever seen the captains of the guards of those nobles?? Could they be like a herald, all day long just to convey the meaning of the nobles, but they do not have any command over the soldiers??" Xiu Yi looked at Su, a person who has been with nobles all day long, will definitely know something, after all, many nobles have a good face, and they will definitely bring their friends back to their homes.

Su Wenyan paused slightly, thinking about it carefully, it was really like this, the captain of the guard in his nobleman's family would indeed not be like Kovist, and he would not even say many things to the nobles.

He once asked his aristocratic friends why those captains of the guards were like this, and weren't they afraid of the guards rebelling?

And one of his nobles replied to him, the captains of the nobles' guards, all of whom were retired from the Empire, and they had strong combat abilities, and they also had the ability to be a good smart soldier.

Moreover, because they are all veterans, with great pride and self-esteem, and abhor betrayal, their loyalty is unquestionable, as long as the nobles are not too wicked, they are loyal captains of the guard.
