Chapter 34: Reversal
"Who...... Who ......is it? Come out!" Athoth's hand in the dagger began to tremble. He didn't expect that someone would make trouble at this time, and the good mood that he had finally had disappeared in an instant.
Along with Atos, Aaron was scared. It stands to reason that if someone stopped Aitos, he should be happy. But now Aaron couldn't be happy when he looked at Athos' trembling right hand. He didn't want Atoth to hurt himself by mistake because of the shaking of his hands, especially when the dagger was against his neck.
"Although I thought you were a little abnormal, I didn't expect you to do this, money and power blinded you, Atos. Gradually, a figure stepped out of the woods. At the same time, other figures gradually appeared around Atoth, and there were about twenty or thirty people scattered around him, surrounding him.
Atoth's eyes widened as he looked at the person who spoke, and suddenly felt a bitter pain in his throat and his lips began to dry. It wasn't his plan, and three words were written on his face in surprise - impossible. In any case, Atos did not expect that he would appear in front of him when he was about to win, and judging by the situation, he seemed to be prepared.
"Why are you here? Aytos gritted his teeth and glared at the uninvited guest.
"Why are you here? Do you need to ask? Of course I'm waiting for you. Eddie laughed and said, "I'm sorry, Atoth, you lost this duel." ”
"You only came here at this time, I have suffered a lot. Aaron said with a sad face, although the four big men had fallen, but Atos's dagger was still around his neck, and the danger was still not over.
"You can't blame me for that, I've used all my strength. If we don't get rid of the archers hiding in the trees, it's very dangerous for us to rush out. Moreover, those archers are very hidden, and we have spent a lot of energy on them. Now, two brothers have been injured, and I don't know how to report to the captain when I go back. Eddie pointed to the two knights beside him, a sad expression.
Aaron pouted, even the arrows he could dodge himself, they knights couldn't dodge?But facts speak louder than words, there are really two knights holding arms, and their clothes are covered in blood. But Aaron's mind is not here at this time, he just wants Eddie to get him out of Atos's hands as soon as possible.
"Eddie, hurry up and kill him, and get me out. ”
As soon as Aaron shouted, he heard Aitos scolding: "Shut up, if you speak again, Lao Tzu will kill you." Hey, Eddie, how do you know I'm going to be here at this time?" "By now, Athos knew that his defeat was decided, and in the face of twenty or thirty knights, he wanted to escape, which could only be said to be whimsical, but even if he lost, he had to lose.
"Everything I do is at Razor's behest of all. Seeing that a red mark had appeared on Aaron's neck, Eddie didn't dare to say anything too drastic.
"You say. Atos yelled at Aaron in front of him.
"My ears are deaf. Aaron frowned and said, "I can get Eddie to wait for you here, can't you guess why?"
What a mallet. Aaron added in his heart.
"You mean...... We have traitors here...... No, it can't be, there's no way Harrison can't betray me...... Could it be ......" Aitos suddenly remembered the man.

Harrison put Frelia in a sack, snuck out of the Duke's Palace, and trotted with Felia all the way to find a brown carriage on the corner of the street. Without saying a word, Harrison opened the door and put Frelia into the carriage. Then he himself followed and got into the carriage as well.
Inside the carriage sat a young man in a blue gown, and after gently placing Frelia on the floor, he pulled out a black strip of cloth and handed it to Harrison.
Harrison was slightly stunned, and suddenly remembered that Atos had told him that he had also been blindfolded by strips of black cloth. It seemed that this was the matter, and Harrison took the strip of cloth very consciously and took the initiative to blindfold himself.
The young man was not particularly reassured, so he checked again, and when he found that there was indeed no problem, he said to the coachman, "Let's go." ”
The wheels turned, and the carriage moved slowly.
Harrison sat patiently in the car like a very experienced man, waiting for the final arrival at his destination. He heard from Aitos that Edward's residence was far from the Duke's Palace, and that it would have taken about two hours if it was the normal speed of the carriage.
Two hours is enough for a night's sleep. Harrison leaned back in the car, his body relaxed, his consciousness blurring.
I don't know how long it took, but Harrison felt that it was far less than two hours, when the carriage suddenly stopped, and he was immediately taken out of the carriage by the man in black.
"Hey, you gentlemen, I'm friends with your boss, or when I see Mr. Edward, I'll tell you about your evil deeds, and I won't have your good fruit to eat. Harrison was shoved, staggered forward, and yelled at the man behind him.
The man behind let out a sneer and continued to push Harrison. Harrison staggered four or five steps, and there was anger in his heart, what was going on? Didn't Atos work with Edward? Why were they so rude, as if I owed them?
There was a fire in his heart, but now Harrison had no choice but to hope that he could see Edward as soon as possible. He didn't wait long for this hope, and soon stopped.
"It's here. The man's voice was cold, without the slightest emotion.
"I ...... I'll tell Mr. Edward right now, you men are rude. Harrison raised his hand to remove the black cloth, his eyes had not been opened for too long, and when the sun hit Harrison's face, Harrison subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands, and only when his eyes were fully adjusted to the sunlight did he look around.
Harrison had expected to meet Edward at Edward's quarters, where there was wine, beauty, and good food, and he would have a good time with him. But it seems that I am thinking too much, this should be a wilderness, right?
What made Harrison most incomprehensible was that around him, there were one or twenty large men in shape, each with a long sword, and surrounded him as if he were a prisoner, and the maid he had used to offer to Edward was not by his side.
Looking at the expressions of these big men, there are anger, joy, indifference, and ridicule...... Undoubtedly, Harrison was sure that these people were not welcoming themselves. But wasn't Atoth already allied with Edward, or did Atos play with himself?
Directly in the direction of Harrison was a balding middle-aged man in his thirties and forties. Harrison had heard Atos talk about Edward's appearance, so when he saw this balding man, he guessed that this person was Edward?
"Mr. Edward, are you ...... Here's what to do, this scene is a bit big. Harrison asked tentatively.
"Who are you? I don't think I've seen you. Edward asked, narrowing his eyes.
"I'm Harrison, and I used to be the captain of the Duke's Palace. Harrison whispered.
"Captain of the guard? I don't really care what exactly you're now, though. ”
Harrison's face turned red, thinking that Edward had been insulted. He clenched his fists, suppressed his anger, and said softly, "According to the contract, I brought Felia here. ”
When this is over, I'll kill you when I turn around. Harrison thought indignantly.
"Contract, what contract? I really don't know. Who is Felia? Is it a man or a woman? Hey, big man, don't say something to me I don't understand, okay?" Edward looked stunned.
