Magician 136 Far away

This is what Brian summed up based on Moore's usual memories.

But what's the point of such an arrangement? Not only can it not damage his image as the new king, but it can also reflect the kind and loving side of the people......

Kindness...... Aimin ......

Brian's eyes narrowed gradually, and he asked in a low voice:

"Evans, are you confident you've beaten Tadio?"

"Your Highness, I can." When asked like this, Evans's anger immediately returned, and his eyes became extremely sharp.

As a knight, and as His Royal Highness's personal knight, he has zero tolerance for anything that goes against chivalry.

"Very good, let's go see first, and let you do it when we do it!" Seeing that Evans was so confident, Brian didn't say anything more and walked in front of the two.

As a result, he saw Tadio, who had just finished beating two hotel handymen, counting the coins in his hand.

The rest of the hotel staff heard the movement and ran out, and after seeing the five of Tadio's dress, they all honestly kept their distance from Tadio.

"Tadio, what are you doing!" Brian rushed over and asked with a serious expression.

When Tadio heard the voice, he immediately clenched the palm of his hand holding the money, looked up and said with a smile:

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, I came back from feeding the horses, and I heard that you actually paid for staying in a hotel, so how can you do it?"

"You're Bertrand's new king! When you return to the royal capital, you will hold a throne ceremony and inherit the throne, and if the news of you staying in a hotel and paying for it spreads, won't it embarrass the royal family? ”

"Huh~" Listening to the illogical words, Brian smiled.

"I don't think there's anything embarrassing about this, it's natural to sell and buy and pay, you make me embarrassed like this, didn't my father pay you?"

Brian straightened his posture and said in a commanding tone:

"Return the money and compensate the two for their medical expenses, and this matter will be revealed."

"Uncovered?" Tadio tilted his head, his eyes wide open, and he looked incredulous.

"It's their honor that I, Tadio, buy their civilian things, and I've never paid for them!"

It makes sense that Bertrand is where it is today.

Brian's expression became more and more serious, and the anger in his heart was almost exploding, but he gritted his teeth and asked one last question.

"So, are you going to listen to my orders?"

"I'm sorry, Your Highness the Prince, but I won't listen to your meaningless orders." There was a faint smile on the corner of Tadio's mouth, as if to say, "Yes, what can you do with me?" ”

"Evans ......"

As soon as Brian spoke, before he could finish the second half of his sentence, the young knight beside him moved, and the brown robe brought a breeze rushed towards Tadio.

Evans stood aside, unable to hold back the anger in his heart, but still patiently waited for His Highness's order.

Now, as soon as the order fell, he burst out and punched Tadio in the face in the blink of an eye, knocking him to the ground and letting out a scream of pain.

"Ahh

Well done, Brian secretly praised in his heart.

Seeing this, the other four guards instinctively wanted to step forward to help, but they heard the roar of His Royal Highness the Prince.

"I see who dares!"

Suddenly, the four guards stopped one after another, standing on the ground and looking at each other, neither advancing nor retreating.

Very good. Brian's voice was both a threat and a temptation.

Judging from the performance of the current 4 guards, they are directly under Tadio's orders, and have no contact with Tadio's superiors, otherwise they would not be afraid of Brian, a prince with no power and no money.

And this directly means that as long as Brian can dispose of Tadio, he can subdue the remaining 4 guards.

Thinking of this, Brian looked back at the front, and at this time, Evans pressed on Tadio's body, punching to the flesh, hitting Tadio's nose and swollen face, and it was difficult to speak.

Evans is so strong that he can subdue a captain of the guard with one move?

Brian was a little puzzled, in the impression of the third prince of More, Evans rarely made a move, and he didn't know the specific combat power, but it was too unexpected to knock over a veteran with one move.

Feeling that the fight was almost over, Evans breathed a long sigh of relief and was in a much better mood. He got up from Tadio's body and stood straight beside Brian, without saying a word.

Brian stole a glance at Evans, who was inexplicably powerful, not like a 20-year-old young man.

He withdrew his gaze and walked slowly over to the lying Tadio, looking down at the other man with a calm gaze.

"Spare your life today, be honest in the future, and recognize your status."

Brian reminded with a smile, taking all the coins from Tadio's hand and pulling some more out of his body.

During this process, Tadio kept staring at Brian with red and swollen eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Brian didn't care, completely ignored it, and counted the money in his hand, a total of 2 silver coins, 1 Zen and 8 Potter, of which 8 Potter was the house money, 1 Bonn was the meal money, and 2 silver coins were Tadio's own.

"Heh, there's no money here." With a tease, Brian walked up to the two hotel handymen and handed the money out.

"You take it, the extra two people will be divided equally, and it will be regarded as medical expenses."

The two handymen each covered their wounds, looked at the money, at the accomplices, and then at the miserable Tadio, looking hesitant.

"Don't worry, if anyone bullies you again, tell me, I believe you also know, I am Moore Engeldo, the third prince of the Bertrand Kingdom." Brian angrily reported his identity to appease the two.

Sure enough, the two handymen were no longer entangled, accepted the coin, and kowtowed.

Brian hurriedly helped the two up, looked at the other hotel personnel who were crowded into a pile, and said:

"It's okay, let's go eat, we've been on the road for a day, and we haven't eaten yet."

Seeing this, a middle-aged man in the crowd hurriedly dispersed everyone and beckoned the two beaten handymen to leave.

It was a lot quieter near the main door of the hotel.

Brian thought for a moment, turned his head to look at the four guards, and ordered:

"You four come with me!"

The four of them immediately followed behind Brian, and Evans, as His Highness's personal knight, of course, followed along.

The old butler Taveen craned his neck to look at Tadio, frowned, shook his head again, and ignored ......

Bringing the group to the hotel room, Brian sat on the edge of the bed, Evans with his sword at his side, and looked at the four guards in their 20s with scrutinizing eyes.

"Whose man is Tadio?"

There was silence in the room for a moment.

Brian thought for a while, supported the other elbow with one hand, and then supported his chin with the back of his hand, plus his identity as the third prince, creating a depressing atmosphere, and then looked at the four of them with sharp eyes, and said lightly:

"It seems that you still don't understand the current situation."

"You didn't stop my knight and help Tadio just now, do you think he will hold a grudge and deliberately make things difficult for you after returning to the royal capital?"

The four guards looked at each other, obviously knowing what Brian meant, and their hearts were shaken.

Riding on the victory, Brian continued:

"Now only I can save you, cooperate with me obediently, and after returning to the royal capital, you can be one of my personal guards......"

Finally, one of them spoke:

"Your Royal Highness, Tadio is Viscount Victor's man."

Viscount Victor...... Brian thought silently.

In this era, control of the military was in the hands of the king and the nobles who bestowed his titles, and there was also a very interesting feature, that is, "the subordinates of the subordinates are not my subordinates", and the hierarchy was very strict.

"What's your name?"

"Your Royal Highness, my name is Blake." Blake bowed and excitedly introduced himself.

An ordinary person whose name is known by a nobleman is often the first step to enter the aristocratic class and become a knight, and it is no wonder that Blake is so excited.

"Nice name, I remember." Brian nodded lightly and asked again:

"Who does Viscount Victor have more contact with?"

In fact, Brian still wants to ask more clearly, such as the attitude of the prince of Vic towards the Tuze Kingdom, is it the main battle faction or the surrender faction? However, considering that this issue was too sensitive, the contact of the four guards might not be good, so he gave up.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness the Prince, I don't know." Blake shook his head and said:

"Tadio won't take us with him when he meets Baron Victor."

Brian was not surprised by this answer, and naturally he was not disappointed.

"Got it, all stand down, you are my personal guards from now on, and you don't have to pay attention to Tadio's orders." Brian waved his hand and let the four guards leave.

Suddenly, the other three guards who had not had time to speak were full of remorse.

It's not that they have any opinion on the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince, but that they hate why they didn't speak first and missed the opportunity to talk to His Highness.

When the four of them left, Brian exhaled a thick mist, and his lofty posture collapsed instantly.

In this way, I can be regarded as having my own person.

Brian didn't have the slightest psychological pressure to dig into the corner of Tadio, and he didn't think it would cause follow-up trouble, after all, he was just a small captain of the guard, and his real enemy should be Viscount Victor and his forces.

Outside the room, the old butler Tavien listened silently, his expression strange and abnormal.

"Your Highness has changed ......"

……

At sunset, Brian was informed by the hotel's meal preparation.

Receiving the news, Brian went down the hall and saw the food on the two tables.

A wooden table is not large, wide and slender, and can accommodate about 6 people.

Brian stepped forward, stretched out his hands, freed up some chairs, and merged the two wooden tables together, making the table more seating.

Then he looked at the four guards who had just arrived:

"Come with me for dinner, sit down."

"Your Highness......" Evans stood aside and tried to say something, but was stopped by Brian raising his hand.

The four guards were stunned and wanted to refuse, so they heard His Royal Highness the Prince continue:

"It's an order."

The four guards sat down obediently.

Meanwhile, Brian looked at a hotel room, where Tadio was resting, and the other party didn't come out.

It's good.

Brian didn't want to see Tadio very much, and now that the other party didn't come out, he naturally wanted to keep his eyes clean, so as to completely isolate him and strengthen his relationship with the four guards.

Sitting down at the table, Brian looked at the dishes on the table, black sausages, pork stewed soybeans, wheat bread, oat wine, goat's milk, roasted onions, and so on.

Each of them is small in quantity, but prepare multiple servings, and just take the plate when you need it.

There is etiquette at the table, and when the person with the highest status does not move first, no one else can move.

Brian looked around the table at this moment, Evans and Taveen behaved naturally, and the four guards were more apprehensive and excited, and it was an honor for the nobles to have dinner together.

"Let's go." Speaking lightly, Brian picked up a piece of bread and put it in his mouth.

The bread was soft and firm, tasted unfrosted, and was a finely powdered bread that had been screened in multiple layers, which was an expensive luxury.1 Kuhn was obviously not enough for this meal.

After eating the bread, Brian tried other foods, all of which tasted unsatisfactory and lacked enough spices to taste.

He ate only bread and goat's milk, and he was the only one who ate bread......

"Make up the money for the bread." When dinner was over, it was getting dark, and Brian gave a word to Tavien, the old butler, and went to bed.

One night, Brian was so uncomfortable that he couldn't sleep until he was sleepy......

"Bang bang bang!"

"Your Highness! Your Royal Highness! ”

In a daze, Brian heard a heavy knock on the door and the shouts of Evans, the knight.

"Your Highness, something is wrong, wake up!"

Brian, who wanted to delay for a while, woke up in an instant, and asked out loud while getting dressed.

"What's going on?"

His first reaction was that Tadio had done something irrational, and he heard Evans say outside the door:

"The townsfolk have discovered the demon, I hope you can deal with it!"

"Demons?" Brian was stunned by the action of dressing, and there was no information about the demon in the memory of the third prince Moore......

......The wooden door opened, and Brian walked out in his white robe, his expression changing.

"What's going on?"

Evans answers:

"Your Highness, a few civilians came early in the morning to say that their son had become a demon, and they came to expose it, hoping to get a bounty and let you put the demon to death."

"Where is the devil now?" Brian doesn't care about anything else.

"It's right outside the hotel."

"Let's go." Brian walked briskly to the front, and before he could reach the door of the hotel, he heard the voices of a jumble of people.

The four guards stood outside the hotel early, and when they saw Brian coming out, they immediately stopped the surging crowd.

At the front of the crowd, a small group of people waited, looking for Brian's arrival, and in front of these people, there was a little boy with his limbs bound by thick hemp rope, who looked to be about 14 years old.

Brian stood outside the gate and kept looking through the crowd, but he didn't see the so-called "demon", so he asked the knight curiously:

"What about the demons?"

Evans grasped the hilt of his sword with one hand and pointed forward with the other:

"Your Highness, the devil is there!"

Brian looked in the direction of Evans' finger and saw the little boy who was tied up.

"This is a demon?"

Evans was about to reply, "This is the devil," when an old, energetic voice took a step faster than him.

"Your Highness, the demon was its original appearance when it first awakened the power of the demon, and as it grows older, it will slowly show the posture of the demon."

The person who spoke was the old butler Tavien, who guessed that Brian didn't know anything about the demons and gave a brief explanation.

Brian interpreted the sentence word by word and asked rhetorically:

"That is, he is now a human, not a demon."

"Yes, Your Highness." Taveen hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"I see." Brian bowed his head and stepped over to the little boy.

"What's your name?"

The little boy's forehead drooped, his eyes were blank, and he looked extremely lost, ignoring Brian.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man kicked the little boy in the back and scolded angrily:

"My lord asks you something, say it!"

The little boy turned his head to look at it, then withdrew his gaze before he reluctantly spoke:

"Derrick ......"

The middle-aged man kicked Derick again:

"What do you say to adults?"

"Don't fight." Brian felt pitiful for the little boy, raised his hand to stop him, and forced the middle-aged man back with his eyes, and then he returned to the knight's side.

"Did you ask about the specifics? How was he found out and how was he caught? ”

Since the demon was an ordinary person at the beginning, Deric must have exposed his specialness because of something and was arrested.

"Your Highness, I've asked everything." Evans nodded.

"Last night, a thief sneaked into the house of a civilian, and was discovered by the father and son of the civilian, and the thief was afraid that he would be exposed, so he took out a short knife and moved the idea of killing."

"As a result, the commoner's son is a demon who awakens the power of the devil and easily kills the thief."

"The father was very scared, and after coaxing the demon to sleep, he contacted the nearby civilians to tie up the demon while the demon was asleep, and prepared to send it to the church in the town."

"But as you pass by outside the inn, the civilians hear that you are here, and they intend to put the demon at your disposal."

Brian instinctively felt anger after listening to the knight's story, and it was even stronger than yesterday.

A son reveals his demonic identity in order to protect his father, but the father turns around and betrays his son.

In his opinion, that father should be more of a demon.

"Where is the father of the child?"

Evans was about to answer when a middle-aged man walked out, smiling all over his face.

"My lord, I'm here!"

Brian looked at it and immediately laughed angrily. The middle-aged man was the same person who kicked Derry twice.

What a good father!

Brian looked at the middle-aged man's flattering appearance, and wanted Evans to teach the other party a lesson, but this did not meet the expectations of the people, so he had to give up.

"Tavien, give him the bounty."

"Yes." Taveen took out five Bertrand silver coins and handed them to the middle-aged man.

At this time, Brian said:

"Darek has nothing to do with you from now on."

"Of course, of course!" The middle-aged man nodded again and again, and his smile became brighter.

There are only 3 silver coins to go to the church, but there are 5 coins to find this adult, what a good time!

"Blake, tell them to leave." Brian waved his hand helplessly.

"Yes, Your Highness." Blake solemnly agreed, and began to disperse the civilians with three companions.

Evans suddenly asked in confusion:

"Your Highness, don't demons execute in public?"

"I don't want to do that, don't you think it's too cruel, Evans?"

"But Your Highness, that's a demon, he will endanger the safety of the people at any time!" Evans was puzzled, and even questioned His Highness's decision.

"Before he became a demon, he was the people!" Brian's voice gradually increased.

He doesn't care what the so-called demon is in the public's impression, as long as he looks like a normal person and doesn't break the law, he can't do it.

Evans was stunned for a moment, feeling that His Highness in front of him was unfamiliar, and at the same time, this sentence also touched him.

"Bring Darick in, take care of the tap......" Brian calmed down, his words softened a lot, and he began to regret his tantrums......

Entering the room, Brian took a closer look at Darik.

Derrick has short black hair, round brown eyes but no luster, and is still very immature.

Brian also discovered that Darick had a large clotted blood stain on his right hand, possibly from fighting the thief last night.

But no matter how you look at it, this is a normal child, just depressed.

"Evans, untie the twine."

Evans silently untied the rope that bound Darik, while Tavien, who was close to the door, had no intention of stopping him.

After Darerick regained his freedom, Brian asked curiously:

"What is your awakened power, can you show it to me?"

Avoiding provoking Darik's resistance, he shied away from words like demons, demonic powers, etc.

"Aren't you afraid of me?" Dai Li still bowed his head, his voice faint, looking at the twilight.

Brian spread his hands and looked puzzled:

"Why should I be afraid of you? Have you ever done something bad? ”

The softness of Derrick's heart was suddenly touched, he picked up the thick hemp rope, and pulled it in each direction with both hands, and the hemp rope broke from the outside to the inside, and the strings that were put together broke one by one, making a crisp sound of "crackling".

Brian was amazed:

"Remarkable."

Darik's feigned indifference collapsed instantly, his nose ached, and he cried in the room.

It's a child after all, even if you are strong, it's fake.

Brian sighed in his heart, stepped forward casually, hugged Darik with both hands, and said gently:

"I'll go to the royal capital, it's impossible to bully you anymore and say you're a demon."

Feeling the warmth of the white robe, Darek nodded emphatically......

After breakfast, the group continued to the royal capital, and saw the magnificent city walls of the royal capital at noon.

Under the city walls, a large group of people waited, and after they saw Brian's procession, a group of brightly dressed dancers appeared in an orderly manner, singing and dancing.

In addition, on the two sides of the city wall, there is a row of cavalry in each rank, all wearing chain mail and long swords at their waists, which is majestic.

"Your Highness, there is a situation." The carriage came to a slow stop, and Evans reported back to the trunk.

Brian then walked out of the trunk with Darik and looked not far ahead.
