Behind the desk sat a thin, middle-aged man, his hairline almost receding to the back of his head, and he looked in horror at the young man in front of him covered in blood like a devil in hell, and the dagger that he had easily inserted into his oak table, and he could barely speak. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"You...... You...... You're the one who killed Fabian and their entire team...... ......"

"That's right, it's me, I'm here to settle accounts with you!"

Sean had other coats to wear, but he had come to scare people, so he took out the blood-covered coat and put it on.

When he was chasing the Bone Crushers in the vicinity, he had heard about Baron Dodd's cowardly deeds, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually go to this point, Fabian and his men were only a dozen people, and he could actually let these hooligans go to his territory and rob them in open fire.

The more Sean thought about it, the more angry he became, and with a pinch of his fingers, he snapped into a fireball in his palm.

Baron Dorne was about to fall out of his chair and said in a trembling voice, "You...... What do you want to do, I don't owe you money. ”

"You don't owe me money, you owe me my life, you owe several lives to the village of White. ”

"Didn't you all get them back? ”

"You still have the face to say, if I hadn't passed by their village, if I didn't know these things, do you know how many people they will die in the winter?"

"I ...... I'm just a temporary failure in business, I've already planned, and when I have money for a while, I'll definitely compensate them. ”

When you have the money to compensate, you can only send it to the widow of the village chief of White, it can only be sent to Aunt Jessie who lost her son, and it can only be sent to Hi Pi, who lost her father at a young age!"

Baron Dorne looked ashamed and bowed his head silently.

The more Sean spoke, the more angry he became, and he turned around and pointed at one of the guards who followed: "You, what about you, are you a knight?"

The man straightened his chest when he heard this: "Of course, my ancestors once followed the Duke of Snow Wolf......"

Before he could finish the rest of his words, he was choked back by Sean's words: "Then when Fabian came to blackmail, why didn't you draw your sword?"

The guard bowed his head in shame.

Sean turned to the other guard and asked, "Are you a knight?"

The man didn't even dare to answer, and directly turned his face away.

Sean walked outside the house and pointed to the group of guards in the hallway who had followed him when he had just broken in, and yelled, "Are you all knights? Are you all men, why didn't you draw your sword when Fabian came to blackmail your lord?"

No one dared to answer.

No one dared to look at Sean.

Half-ringing, Baron Dorne slowly raised his head: "Young man." ”

"Huh, what else do you have to say?"

"Put out the fire in your hands first, and your clothes are almost on fire. ”

“......”

Sean slapped himself wildly in front of the room, extinguishing the flames on the hem of his clothes, and then angrily pulled a chair and sat down in front of the baron: "Don't talk about those useless things, you have to give me an explanation today." ”

Baron Dorne nodded, "What's your name?"

"Just call me Sean. ”

"Okay, Sean, I assure you. ”

"What can you promise, tell me about it?"

"I did owe a lot of money because I failed in my business, but I have worked hard to pay it back, except for this castle left by my ancestors, all other properties have been mortgaged by me to pay off the debt. Even the property of my knights......" he pointed to the guards standing at the door, "I have mortgaged a lot. ”

Sean didn't interrupt him, listening quietly. He didn't come to make trouble, but his extreme arrogance just now was to deter these people and make them dare not betray those poor lords in the future.

However, people's hearts are unpredictable after all, and he can't guarantee that if he just scares them, Baron Dorne will not repeat his old tricks when he leaves. So his mind was racing as he wrestled with the baron, and he needed to find a better way to prevent the villagers from suffering like this in the future.

The baron continued: "So my debt is almost repaid, and the money that Fabian and they have come to ask for is my last debt. At that time, I didn't have any collateral, and I was so confused that I signed such an agreement with them, and I'm very sorry. ”

With that, he stood up and bowed deeply to Sean. Then he straightened up and said, "I will go to White later, personally apologize to the villagers, and promise never to let such a tragedy happen again." ”

Sean was a little moved, after all, among the nobles he had seen before, there was no one like Baron Dorne who was willing to apologize to the commoners in such a low profile.

After all, he is a nobleman and a lord, and in order to repay his debts, he didn't care about the life and death of the lords before, which was quite in line with people's impression of the noble lord, but now, he made Sean see something different.

However, Sean is not so easily fooled, he looked at the guards inside and outside the house: "How are these people under you better than those mercenaries of Fabian?"

If the other party still pretends to be pitiful to him, saying that he is not strong enough to beat Fabian and the others, Sean will have no illusions about him.

However, Baron Dorne did not disappoint Sean, he raised his head and looked at Sean and said: "If you really want to fight, Fabian has only one mage and a dozen swordsmen, so I may not be afraid of him." ”

Dorne paused: "If I had planned well beforehand, I could even have them come and go." ”

As soon as these words came out, the guards at the door immediately straightened their chests and looked at their lord with burning eyes.

"But I was really confused at the time, and I didn't want to let my subordinates do it, and I didn't want to bear the stigma that 'Baron Dorne has no spirit of contract, and he kills people if he doesn't pay his debts', so my business reputation will be completely ruined. ”

"So you'd rather be saddled with the infamy of 'Baron Dorne cares less about the lives of his people in order to pay off his debts?'" Sean scoffed. But after saying that, he was also a little short of breath, after all, the empire is declining, and 'regardless of the life or death of the people' doesn't seem to be infamy.

Baron Dorne stood up again: "It's true that I'm confused, and what is more important to me is the love of the people than some commercial reputation. ”

This attitude is already rare among the nobles, Sean doesn't intend to persecute too much, and he can't kill all these people, murdering the nobles is a felony, and he has to face the wanted of the empire, not to mention, the newly canonized noble lord may not be stronger than the relatively mild Baron Dorne in front of him.

Besides, people's attitude of admitting mistakes is also very sincere, if it is a matter of money, Sean can pull him.

"What kind of business do you do?"

"The glass business that reached the empire from the Seven Cities Alliance through the Emerald Sea was only shipwrecked, the ships carrying the goods sank, and I ran out of money and goods, so I ended up where I am now. ”

"Have you ever considered doing a metal smelting business? ”

"Smelting?"
