46 meetings
One of the bodyguards in front of Ankh looked at Ankh and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Ankka calmed down and said, "Nothing. ”
"It's the first time you've been a bodyguard for this kind of person?"
Ankh nodded in response.
"It's rare for you to be so young."
Ankh covered her head and bowed her head and said, "I can't help it if I'm in a hurry to use the money." ”
At this time, a tall man approached and hugged Anka and asked, "How much does your employer give?" ”
"It was 15 silver a month."
"That's a lot! My employer gave me a gold a month! You have to learn to bargain, after all, you still have to know how much you're worth. ”
Ankh nodded, pretending to listen like one of those young people who didn't understand anything.
Ankh asked, "What are you talking about here?" Such a strong defense is needed. ”
The other bodyguards shrugged and said they didn't know.
Ankka approached the gate and concentrated, barely able to hear some words.
"I heard that the paladins have been sent out quite a bit recently."
"So the plan can be advanced?"
"Be careful, Ranga hasn't been able to reach him lately."
"Hmph, what does that two-faced thing expect her to do."
"Eh, the interests of the Assassin family still need to be taken into account."
"Then at ten o'clock in the evening in the largest church in the inner city, I will invite the Holy Maiden to preach, and then we will control her in place of the bishop."
"Can you do it?"
"Sure, if I can meet her, then I can do it."
After the crowd ended the call, they let them leave in the reverse way when they arrived, starting with Delancey pushing the door open.
Ankka followed in her footsteps and returned to the mansion in a carriage.
Anka was asked to patrol the garden, while Delancey took refuge in an attic on the top floor.
Ankka saw that she had gone away, took out the communication rune stone, and told the captain about their plan.
"The largest church in the inner city at ten o'clock in the evening."
"Very well, I'll go with the Holy Maiden."
"Can't you just let the saint not go over?"
"The Holy Maiden will not refuse to preach, and we are waiting for them to do this, and then the paladins who stop outside can go in and execute them."
"By the way, those bodyguards I hope you can have people scout, in case there are strong guys in there, we should also prepare in advance."
"You're so cautious."
After the conversation, Ankka noticed a sound and shaking in the grass around her.
A cold sweat broke out on Anka's forehead, and he quietly stepped forward and stabbed it with a sword.
Two half-naked men and women jumped out of the grass with a few thuds, and Ankh covered her eyes and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
In the face of Anka's questioning, the man knelt down first and said, "I'm a gardener, I'm clearing the grass." ”
Ankka lowered her eyes and said, "Is there such a cleanup?" ”
The woman also knelt down and prayed, "Please don't tell our master about us, you can let me do whatever I want." ”
Ankh thought for a while and said, "Okay, you go to the attic and see what the master is doing, and tell me before dinner or you'll be finished." ”
The woman asked in a hurry, "What is it to go and see what the master is doing?" ”
Ankh stuck his sword in front of them and said, "Do what you like, I want to see what my master likes, don't you?" ”
After saying that, Ankha waved his hand and said, "Let's go!" ”
Ankh continued to wander the garden, while the woman and the man said goodbye and straightened their clothes and returned to the mansion.
When the woman met the other maids with refreshments, she asked, "Is it for the master?" ”
The other nodded in response.
"Give it to me! You go to rest! ”
After thanking her, he handed her the refreshments and left.
As she came to the attic with refreshments, she knocked softly on the door, and she walked in trembling as she heard the words of permission inside.
She slowly looked up to find Delancey lying in the bathtub looking at herself.
"Put things there, why are you today?"
The maid thought for a while and responded, "She just saw me and gave me this, let me come up, and ran away on her own." ”
Delancey snorted, and the frightened maid almost couldn't stand.
"You're ready to go out."
"Well, master, I have something to say."
"What?"
"Your newly hired bodyguard seemed to be talking to someone in the garden about what you were talking to the adults about."
When Delancey heard this, he said, "Are you being targeted?" ”
After that, the butler brought a bag of copper coins and handed it to the maid, who knelt down and thanked her before leaving.
The butler stepped forward and asked, "My lord, what should I do?" ”
Delancey said, "Old way, go and prepare!" ”
In the evening, Anka sat on a bench and waited anxiously.
After a while, the woman appeared.
Ankh asked, "What's in that room?" ”
"Nothing, just some furniture."
"Does that smell?"
"No, I didn't smell it."
As Ankka pondered, the woman trembled and said, "Well, can I go?" ”
Ankh nodded and allowed the other to leave.
And after the bell rings for dinner, Anka meets the butler in front of the gate of the house.
"The host invites you to dinner."
"Why?"
"The host wants to discuss your employment price with you."
Anka pondered: "I'm afraid that it wasn't the woman who told something, it seems that you should be careful." ”
Anka and the housekeeper then went to the top floor to Delancey's location.
Delancey sat on a chair in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at Ankka.
Ankka sat across the long table with the other party's consent.
"Do you think your price is low right now?"
"I didn't say that."
"How about a gold?"
"That's good."
By the time the two were talking, the butler had already pushed the food cart full of food, and Ankh continued to look at Delancey after picking a few.
After eating one steak, Delancey pushed the rest away and replaced it with another, and after noticing Anka's gaze, he asked, "Keep looking at the beauty, be careful that snake hair grows on the head of the beauty and bites off your eyes." ”
Ankka noticed that there didn't seem to be any problem after the other party finished eating, so she carefully took the rest of the steak and ate it.
Ankka had just stuffed a cutlet into his mouth and swallowed it, then he fell asleep on the table.
Delancey stretched and said, "How much did you put it?" I feel sleepy after taking all of the above myrrh. ”
"Move him to the attic, I'm going to rest now."
The butler then laboriously carried Ankh to the attic and chained him to the wall in shackles.
When Delancey returned to his room, there were already three orphanage children waiting for him.
When the child saw Delancey, he rushed forward.
Delancey said, "Kids, shall we make a game?" ”
The children unanimously responded, "Yes." ”
"Oh well! You put your hands out and close your eyes. ”
The children did so and stretched out their hands.
Delancey took out a long knife and cut off the children's hands.
As soon as the children were about to scream, Delancey skillfully drew a knife and pierced the faces of the three children, cutting off their tongues accurately, and the severed tongue blocked their throats, and Delancey took their cup of blood, put in a piece of candy, sat down in a chair, and looked at the struggling children with a smile.
The children looked at Delancey in despair, as if asking her why she did it, but Delancey was still laughing and drinking their blood, as if their expressions could make her more appetizing.
Delancey then changed into a long red dress with gold accents, spun around in front of the mirror, and went to the attic.
"How about staying with your seniors!"
Delancey said as he walked into the attic room.
The sight in front of him directly shocked Delancey, and Ankka didn't know why he broke free from the chains and carried the paralyzed butler.
Anka looked at the five corpses pinned to the wall and asked, "They're all the undercover agents you killed, right?" ”
"It looks like a person, I didn't expect it to be so disgusting."
While Ankka was evaluating himself, Delancey had already taken a strong crossbow from behind the door and aimed it at Anka.
A crossbow bolt struck Anka's heart with a whoosh, and Delancey burst out laughing.
"Oh, almost!"
Hearing Ankka speak, Delancey quickly mounted a new crossbow bolt aimed at Anka.
Ankh slowly got up and tore open his clothes, and Delancey was surprised to find that the other party was actually wearing a piece of chain mail, and the crossbow arrow only destroyed part of the shot.
Delancey was about to shoot again when Anka pulled out his throwing knife and shot her in both hands, causing her to throw her crossbow directly.
And just as Delancey was about to retreat and escape, Ankh directly twitched the rope attached to the door to close the door, and threw out the last throwing knife to stab Delancey who turned around.
Delancey's consciousness gradually blurred, Ankha stepped forward and said, "I will give you back the sleeping pills you gave me by smearing them on the arrows." ”
After that, Ankka carried Delancey all the way downstairs, and the servants along the way were afraid to come forward when they saw Ankka carrying Delancey.
After reaching the door, Ankh met the paladin who had come to pick him up.
"Did the saint get to that church?"
The other nodded.
Ankka handed him Delancey and said, "Can you do it to lock down the entire mansion?" ”
The other responded: "Yes, but we should hurry to the church now." ”
Ankh thought for a while and said, "Can you replace the soldiers at the city gate who changed guards after three hours with a paladin?" ”
"What's that for?"
"I don't think they can let the news of their arrest be known so quickly by the underground society outside, and that would prevent the people involved from escaping."
The other nodded, and got into the carriage with Ankka, while Delancey was tied up with a kind of rope that had been soaked in water and contracted after being dried.
The paladin broke the silence and said to Anka, "You are the most sane and calm guy I have ever met, and you are a little more calm than those elemental elves. ”
Hearing this, Ankha stretched out his hand to look at himself and thought to himself: "It seems to be true, is it because of the new body after rebirth or because of the magic sword?" ”
After that, the paladin took off his helmet and said to Anka, revealing his immature appearance, "Please, can you tell the Holy Maiden to let me go out for the next few days." ”
"Why?"
"Recently, the captain has been cleaning up the people in the legion who are not firm in their faith in the Holy Maiden, I, I'm a little scared."
"Can't you quit this job if you're afraid?"
"But the paladin only died in battle and did not retire, and if he resigned from his job voluntarily, he would be regarded as a deserter and disgrace the family."
"Oh? So what did he do with those people. ”
"The captain told them to take off their armor and go on an expedition to the north, as a way to prove their loyalty."
"Alright! I'll talk to him, now let me sleep for a while. ”
"Thank you very much."
