After Ilea ordered the camp, Thomas led a team to patrol the vicinity of the camp.

Miss Rabbit's guardian knight Alfred is already very old, and the girl is worried that his body will not be able to bear it, so she basically doesn't take him with her in the war now, and only lets the old knight sit in Rock Snow City.

So the responsibility of protecting Ilea fell to Thomas, who did not dare to take it lightly, especially after the girl became queen, once the other parties found that it was difficult to defeat Ilea on the frontal battlefield, it was difficult not to think crookedly.

The struggle for royal power in history has always been cruel, and there has never been a shortage of dirty methods.

Thomas searched the lake twice, finding no suspicious person or anything, and returned to the camp before dark.

By this time most of the people had already finished eating, but knowing that Thomas was out on patrol, the man left food for them.

It included half a loaf of black bread, a sausage, and a bowl of boiled beans, and everything from Ilea to the ordinary militia was eaten, but the officers were given an extra glass of mead.

Most of these things were provided by the Lilani couple, as it would be too expensive to ship directly from the West.

Thomas returned to his tent with a wooden plate, he planned to go to bed after eating, but what he didn't expect was that as soon as he entered the tent, his throat

There are assassins?!

Thomas was shocked, he couldn't see the Assassin's face, only to feel something silently leap behind him, and then a dagger to his neck.

The captain's hairs stood on end at this moment, and he couldn't believe that there was an assassin in this world who could sneak into the barracks silently under the gaze of so many pairs of eyes.

His first reaction was not to fear for his own safety, but to fear that the terrible assassin would touch Ilea again.

However, Miss Rabbit is accompanied by at least four guards every day, and only when she sleeps, she is alone, but there are still guards left outside the door.

And since this assassin found him first, it means that the other party is not sure that he will be able to break through the guards around Ilea at the moment.

Thinking of this, Thomas was a little relieved, and then he heard a somewhat familiar voice.

"Long time no see, Sir Thomas."

"Are you...... Selena?" The captain's pupils shrank suddenly.

"I've imagined many times since we parted from you, but I didn't expect to greet you in such a way." Selena said quietly.

Thomas's mind was moving quickly, and he said in a deep voice, "Allister and Cornelia sent you, are you here to assassinate Lord Ireya?"

"Would you believe me if I said I was only here to catch a glimpse of you?"

"I may have loved you once, but don't take me for a fool."

"Ever?" Selena doesn't seem happy with those two words.

"It's your choice, I asked you if you would like to go back to the Westside with me, Faith Saturday, and you rejected me."

"It's not a fair choice at all, why don't you follow me in Valria?" Selena protested.

"Because I am a knight, my honor is my life, and I will never betray Lord Ilea and the Prophet Merlin." Thomas said solemnly.

"I'm just a woman, but that doesn't mean I don't understand that betrayal is wrong, Knight." Selena said. "Then we are enemies."

"You really have the guts, knight, to say something like this while my knife is still in your throat, aren't you worried that I will kill you?"

"Like you said, the knife is in your hand, and you can use it at any time." Thomas said calmly.

"But if you're trying to hold me hostage and make me do something for you, or to get you closer to Sir Elia's idea, I'd advise you to die sooner."

"I didn't expect your elm head to help me." Selena sighed and reached out to pick up the cup of mead from Thomas's wooden plate.

"Put

Heart, I'm not going to force you to do something you don't want to do.

"Actually, I didn't lie to you, I just came to see you."

"yes, then why didn't you let me turn around? You can keep a good eye on me, too."

"Because I'm no match for you," Selena said, "you're so cruel to me as I am to you, and I'm afraid I'll be caught by you and sacrificed to your queen, unless...... You promised me that you wouldn't do anything to me."

"I can promise you." Thomas didn't hesitate for long.

"Okay, then you close your eyes." Selena said.

Thomas closed his eyes, and not long before he heard a muffled sound in his ears, the sound of a wooden wine glass falling to the ground.

At the same time, the captain of the guard felt the cold sensation in his throat disappear, and he quickly opened his eyes and turned to look behind him, but there was no second person in the tent at all.

Thomas lifted the tent just in time to see a team of patrolling guards walking up to his tent.

Thomas asked if they had just seen anyone out of his tent, and when he answered in the negative, he did not hesitate to have the barracks cordoned off, and at the same time hurried to Miss Rabbit's tent.

The good news was that Ilea was still unharmed, and the girl was studying the next route with Cayden and Duren, and was surprised to learn that the Assassins were mixed up in the barracks.

However, it was not so strange to hear that the Assassin was still an old acquaintance, Selena.

Selena is a person who is a priest of Cornelia, and after the awakening of the bloodline, there are special means to hide her body, Ilea has learned her power before, and she still relied on the human sensor that Li Yu gave her to catch people.

Although Thomas has now sealed off the barracks at the first time, not allowing anyone to enter or leave, Miss Rabbit estimates that it will be difficult to find Selena.

It is also true that the captain of the guard then led people to search the barracks from the bottom to the bottom, but found nothing.

It's just that Thomas is still frowning, with his knowledge of Selena, the latter ran to the camp, and it is impossible to just look at him, say a few words to him, and leave so honestly without doing anything.

Ilea said, "Are you thinking too much about people, maybe she really just wants to meet you."

Anyway, Miss Rabbit herself is like this, she panics when she doesn't see Li Yu for a few days, has no intention of working, wants to overeat, and wants to make trouble.

Selena and Thomas haven't seen each other for almost two years, so they have to think about what they will become.

The captain of the guard was a little undecided by her words.

At this time, Kayden on the side said, "Did she ask you any questions or give you anything this time?"
