Chapter 23: Temptation

Things go back an hour before Harry's disappearance......

"That's the case, please report it to the knights in the nearby garrison and the town's garrison immediately, and tell them to be on alert, and report to us as soon as they see this child, understand?" Kalia pulled out a piece of paper with Harry's portrait on it and placed it on her desk. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"I understand, I understand, I'll do it. The man in the chair hurriedly got up from his chair and left the office with the piece of paper with Harry's portrait on it.

This is the garrison of the nearest town in the annex, which was set up to maintain law and order in the town.

Kalia broke in with a diamond-shaped badge with three swords crossed together, and none of the guards dared to stop her, but respectfully led her to the captain's office.

Just kidding, this badge represents one of the three famous knights of the empire, the Knights of the Guardian Guard, the Guardian Knights, everyone is a person who has seen the world, and this is still so close to the imperial capital, who doesn't know this famous knight order.

These garrisons in the middle of the town are connected by a magic device that looks like a crystal ball, and the crystal ball of contact is also divided into two types, one can speak directly to the other person holding the crystal ball opposite, without delay. The other is similar, except that it can be called to several other crystal balls at the same time to achieve an important tool for transmitting orders and intelligence, and this one is mainly used in garrisons and knight stations.

At night, the manor was very lively, and at the invitation of the Marquis of Lauren, countless ladies and men gathered together to raise glasses and drinks, talk and laugh, and have a great time.

"Master Lauren, something has happened!" Suddenly, a hurried voice reached the ears of the handsome yellow-haired young man who was surrounded by the girls in evening dresses, and he stopped talking to the girls apologetically, and walked towards the old butler who was shouting at him with the goblet in his hand.

"What's wrong?" said the yellow-haired young man as he drank a little of wine from his glass without paying attention.

"Mistress Festria's back, and she now asks us to search the neighborhood and find this little boy, saying that he is dangerous, and that we should be careful. The gray-haired old butler handed the paper in his hand to the yellow-haired young man.

"What did you say?!Festeria is back!Well, without further ado, let's get out and find this little kid. As soon as the yellow-haired young man heard Festeria, the wine glass in his excited hand was about to fall to the ground, he looked at the portrait in his hand, and excitedly took the old butler's hand and said.

"Young master, but what about the party?" said the old butler worriedly.

"Well, by the way, didn't there be a circus in the city a few days ago, and you called someone to invite those circus guys over and let them perform, so they wouldn't be bored. Lauren thought for a moment and said.

"Well, well, I see. The old butler sighed, and said with an expression that I knew, every time there is something about Lord Festria, no matter what, the young master will rush over to help.

In this way, after Lauren had finished his order, he left in a hurry with the old butler.

Outside the dimly lit city, the moon was obscured by clouds, the earth was gray, and a group of majestic knights with torches followed a yellow-haired young man on horseback on the avenue outside the city.

"Young master, why don't we go back, Master Festeria said that the child she is looking for is very dangerous, it may be an experimental subject made by those evil witches, and besides, we don't have to come out to look for it, just wait for them to report inside, don't risk your life." The old butler on the horse said worriedly.

"It's all right, you're so worried, maybe we'll run into him later, and if I arrest him myself, maybe Festria will be impressed with me at once. Lauren raised his fist and clenched it in front of his chest, and said confidently.

At this moment, a short figure appeared at the end of the road, and I couldn't see what the person looked like, only the outline of a person could be vaguely seen.

"Lord Lauren, stand down and leave it to us. A knight rushed to Lauren's front and said in front of him, and the knights behind him quickly followed, keeping Lauren and the old butler firmly in the center.

"Stop!!!" the leading knight shouted, raising his sword to the approaching figure.

The figure also obediently stopped, raised his hands and froze in place.

And at this time, the moon was also revealed, and Lauren also saw the appearance of that person clearly, the upper body was wearing thin clothes, the lower body was surrounded by a coat, and the strange black-haired little boy who was not wearing shoes suddenly felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it there, and hurriedly asked the old butler for the paper with the portrait on it, and looked at it seriously, compared it, the similarity was 99%, isn't this the child that Festeria is looking for?!

"That's right, it's him, it's this little guy, the person Festria's looking for!" Lauren said excitedly, pointing to the dark-haired boy.

It was the luck of the blind cat that he ran into a dead mouse, well, so they managed to get Harry and take him to a prison outside the city where he was holding prisoners.

"That's how it is, under my wise guidance, I caught him unscathed...", walking through the passage to the depths of the prison, Lauren said to himself as if he were commanding himself.

Festria walked indifferently and didn't speak, but she clenched her fists tightly as if she was about to lose any patience, this guy was really too bad.

Finally making their way through a heavily guarded metal door, Festeria and the others finally arrived at the cell where Harry was being held.

In the dimly lit cell, through the iron fence, Harry in the depths of the cell was firmly tied to a chair made of steel by an iron chain that exuded a black metallic luster, the whole person could not move, a small face was full of panic, seeing Festeria and their arrival, the little face turned into joy and joy, and shouted to Festeria, "Master!"

Festria stood outside the iron fence and looked at Harry with a blank face, stretched out her hand to signal the people behind her not to come in, Lauren helped her open the cell door and let her in, Lauren was also obedient at this time, standing outside waiting for her, he knew that she who made this expression was not allowed to be disturbed, and she was also the most charming.

Harry looked at Festria, who walked in with an expressionless face, and also noticed the difference in her, and looked at her quietly, without speaking, Festria stood in front of Harry, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere became solemn.

Festria drew her thin sword and pointed it at Harry's neck, the blade was only one step away from Harry's throat, and said lightly, "Are you a human or a monster?"

"Master, what are you talking about?!I'm Harry!" Harry said in astonishment as he looked at the sword around his neck.

But Festria paid no attention to Harry, the blade of the sword was getting closer and closer to Harry's throat, Harry could feel the chill emanating from the sword, and had the illusion that with a light touch, his own throat, no, the entire head would be cut off, and death was so close to him for the first time.

Harry closed his eyes as if in despair, waiting for the sword to pierce his throat.

But the imaginary pain did not come, but the head was caressed by a good-looking white gloved hand with a warm hand.

"Harry, it's great that you didn't turn into that monster. Festria's voice was relieved.

"What's wrong?" asked Harry, looking up strangely, as if he hadn't figured out what was going on.

"I've carefully examined your body with mental power, and you don't have that diseased evil aura on you, you're still the same you, I'm sorry, Harry. Festeria said apologetically, and with a swing of her sword, Harry's chains broke neatly and fell to the ground.

Festria pinched Harry's face and said viciously, "You kid knows how much trouble you've caused me, and you don't know how much trouble you've caused us." ”

"Yes, I'm sorry. Harry mumbled.
