The emir was bored in his cell.

He looked around and saw that the entire prison was very dim, except for the faint glow of the two torches on the walls.

The ground was very clean, it should have been cleaned frequently, and there was nothing in the cell except a pile of straw, and if he wanted to spend the night here, he would have to sleep in a pile of straw, and although he could bear it, he had to worry about Anne and Nova.

He could see the other two through the cracks in the iron fence, and saw that they were content with the status quo, sitting on the straw pile in a daze.

To be honest, Emir really didn't expect that the first time he came to such a big place, the first thing he visited was the prison here.

Although this experience was quite novel, and he had gained more knowledge, he had to worry that if Leonard knew about it, it might affect his future.

However, he quickly dispelled this absurd idea, because he was not a real kidnapper, which was obviously misunderstood.

And so he continued to think about it until late in the evening, when he faintly heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the prison, just as Charles had done when he had come.

The Emir quickly looked out of the cell, and after a while, a figure appeared at the end of the stairs.

As the man approached, Emile could see through the faint light of the fire, a handsome-looking woman who reminded him of Ophelia.

However, Ophelia's seriousness is more like a fake, and after actual contact, you will find that she is a very enthusiastic and understanding person, but this woman's face is quite serious, and she looks righteous and awe-inspiring, as if there is not a grain of sand in her eyes.

She has long black hair, tied into a strand with a hair rope, and put it on the back of her head at will, her facial features are quite upright, and her eyes are sharp, as if she can see through people's hearts.

She was tall and wore a standard set of women's armor, her chest was quite conspicuous, and the blue-gray armor hugged her body, perfectly showing off her slender figure.

This was completely different from the heavy armor that Ophelia wore, more in line with the characteristics of women, and Emir couldn't help but gain knowledge again, it turned out that there was still this style, and he had thought that the armor of knights was the same.

The female knight was undoubtedly Melissa, the deputy head of the regiment as Charles had called.

However, the emir realized how much the knights attached importance to their misunderstanding, after all, in order to rescue them, two captains were dispatched, although one was not so reliable.

Melissa came to the outside of the cell, and two soldiers rushed to greet her.

Not only because they knew the deputy head of the regiment, but also found that she was followed by another person.

The emir could also see that it was a bloated man, about forty years old, dressed like the nobles.

"Here you are, Prison Master." The soldier bowed respectfully.

"Don't bother, get rid of the three prisoners caught this afternoon...... Oh, it's the three people who were caught by mistake and let them out. The man, known as the warden, changed his words abruptly as he noticed that Melissa's face was wrong.

Although he was a prison warden, he was not as good as the head of the Knights in terms of status and power.

"Huh? What was the miscatch? "The soldier was scratching his head.

Another soldier quickly patted him on the head, "You're really dizzy, only those three people were arrested today." ”

"Oh, I see."

He quickly took out the key and opened the cell of the emir and the others.

The three of them came out quickly, it was better that they were waiting for this moment, and if they stayed any longer, they would be bored to death.

However, as soon as the emir and the others came out, Melissa suddenly bent down and said to them with a serious face.

"I'm really sorry, you are obviously the benefactor of my sister, but I let you suffer such a big grievance, I really deserve the identity of a knight, so I will do my best to compensate you, if you want me to do anything, just mention it, as long as it is within my ability, and then it does not violate morality, I will agree."

It is already very rare that the deputy head of the Order of Knights can make such a sincere apology to someone, and he doesn't care that the other party is a commoner.

Naturally, the emir would not be harsh on her, but he had an important matter to ask.

"Haha, it's good that the misunderstanding is resolved, I just want to ask, will there be a record of my imprisonment?"

"Huh? What records? Melissa asked, looking up, surprised.

"Uh, that...... To tell you the truth, I'm here to meet with Lord Leonard, and if this matter is discovered, I'm worried that Lord Leonard will be held accountable, so I ......"

When Melissa heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned, and she looked shocked.

Seeing her expression, the emir was also a little confused, he just asked casually why the other party seemed to have heard something terrible.

After a while, Melissa came to her senses and said to him.

"I would like to take the liberty of asking, are you the emir from Blackpool Town?"

"Huh? How do you know? This time the emir was surprised.

"Well, that's a coincidence." Melissa looked embarrassed, her serious and serious expression was a little uncontrollable, and then, she told the truth, "That's the case, Lord Leonard originally sent a messenger to Blackpool Town during the day to bring you a message, and then arranged for me to do a good job of reception in Baifeng Town, which is why I didn't come to the prison to pick you up immediately, I didn't expect it...... Alas, this is a major dereliction of duty, not only did the benefactor be wronged, but also did not even do what he did well. ”

"Ah, this." Emir was dumbfounded, he didn't expect such a coincidence.

"I'm really sorry, I ...... Alas, I will now go and ask Lord Leonard to take me away from my knighthood. ”

Melissa looked sad, and it seemed that she was really disappointed in herself.

"Don't, don't."

The emir hastened to persuade her, after all, he knew very well how difficult it was to obtain the status of a knight, and it would be a pity to be deprived of it for such a trivial matter.

At this time, Anne on the side suddenly approached Emir and whispered in his ear.

"There's really no need to let her be deprived of her identity, but you can't let her go easily, you know what I mean."

"Well, of course I do." The emir whispered.

"But if you don't, how can you calm your anger? And even if you don't care, I'll be conscious of my defilement. Melissa said, still with her head down.

"Okay then, can you do me a favor?"

"Don't say that, don't say a favor, I'll help you with a hundred favors, just say it."

"Well, I came to White Peak Town this time, in addition to meeting Lord Leonard, there is one more thing I must do, and that is to avenge my friend."

"Revenge?" Melissa was slightly surprised.

"Yes, Nova, explain it to her yourself." Emir looked at the boy behind him.

"Oh, that's ......"

Then, Nova told the whole story of the whole thing, and the more Melissa listened, the more ugly her face became.

The Emir could understand the reason for her anger, after all, the Knights had always been in charge of the security of the town, but they did not expect this to happen, and in the end they did nothing but frame the good guys.

"Your name is Nova , isn't it?" Melissa suppressed her anger and said in a calm tone, "Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation with my personality." ”

"Well, thank you so much, Deputy Captain."

"No, you don't need to thank me," Melissa shook her head and said solemnly, "It's our duty in the first place, but it's a pity that we made a major mistake in our work, which led to the murder of your adoptive parents, and we in the Knights have an unshirkable responsibility for this." ”

The Emir agrees with this statement, if the people of the Order are really doing things without mistakes, they will not let those wicked people go around, and it seems that the deputy master, although very responsible, cannot keep the entire Order at the same level.

At this time, Melissa suddenly noticed Anne, and soon saw that she was a witch, and couldn't help but be vigilant.

Because not long ago, there was an evil witch who made trouble in the town, and although she was finally caught and sentenced to death, she was rescued by her accomplices during the execution, and her whereabouts are still unknown.

Perhaps sensing Melissa's gaze, Anne quickly smiled and said.

"Miss Melissa, I will help if necessary, after all, we promised to avenge Nova first."

"Well, but then again, you're supposed to be a witch, right?"

"That's right, just call me Anne, what's the problem?" Anne asked, tilting her head.

"Oh, I just wanted to ask, do you know a woman named Irina." Melissa stared into her eyes.

“…… Irena? When Anne heard the name, her eyes visibly dodged, "No, I don't know, who is she?" ”

"Haha, it's nothing, just ask." Melissa stopped there, and then proposed, "If you have anything else, please don't hesitate, for the sake of apologies, I will satisfy you one by one, but it will soon be time for dinner, may you please come to my house for dinner?" ”

"This ......," the emir hesitated.

Although he is now the city lord of Blackpool Town, it is obvious that he has not been recognized yet, so he is worried that he is not qualified for the invitation of the deputy head of the regiment.

"Of course," Anne made her decision for him at once, "and it is our pleasure. ”

"Hehe, let's go." Melissa finally smiled, but she looked very reluctant, presumably she rarely showed such an expression.

However, she seemed to notice the strangeness of the emir, and looked at his dress, and quickly guessed that she knew countless people, and her vision was quite unique.

"Emir, you don't have to feel pressured, I was originally ordered to receive you, and I messed up, if you can appreciate it, it will also be a kind of atonement for me."

When Emile heard this, he could not help but be impressed by the knight, who had previously learned about Melissa from Louise, and thought that she was just a conscientious person who did not know much about human affairs.

Now it seems that she has such insight that she can see through his inner thoughts at once, and since this is the case, he can't shirk it.

"Alright then, I'm willing to go."

The trio then followed Melissa out of the prison, where a rather luxurious carriage was parked outside.

For some reason, the emir always wondered if he had seen a carriage of this style somewhere.

Anne noticed the same, and then whispered a reminder to him.

"Isn't that exactly the same as the carriage that hit me before? Could it be that there is a connection? ”
