Striding onto the deck, the smooth water making it feel a slight sway, Edward gently stroked the guardrail on the deck, and looked around—the spacious deck was full of busy sailors, as if making final preparations for departure, and a blue swallow-tailed flag hung from the towering mast, with a white pattern faintly visible on it.

"It is the family coat of arms of the Mineste family, the one-horned seahorse, and one of the four ships of the Kingdom of Turin bears this flag. The captain with the big brimmed hat introduced quite enthusiastically: "As long as this flag is there, then we don't need to be afraid...... Hey, you slackers, get to work!" Before he could finish speaking, the big man who looked quite bold went back to shouting at the sailors.

"Anyway, welcome aboard the Barrel - I will send you both to Maple Leaf Harbor as Lady Angelica instructs!" said the hurried captain, who was far away, did not forget to greet him, and waved at Edward with his large-brimmed hat: "Your room is below deck, and you will be there along the cabin." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Captain. Edward nodded slightly, and with his right hand he pushed the little priest in front of him, and the two of them walked down the stairs along the entrance on the deck, the cabin was not very spacious. Tapping lightly on the bulkhead, Edward, who walked forward, had a slight smile on his face.

There was a chaotic sound of footsteps on the deck overhead, as if the two of them who were still unconscious gently pushed open the door and walked in sideways, and the black image that had been following behind was a little hesitant, but still stood in front of the door.

Belch...... Should they knock on the door, they don't seem to have found out yet, will they be rude?

Before she could think about it, the door suddenly opened—as if a pair of pincers had come out of it, and grabbed her by the throat, and the whole person was thrown in as if it were a leaf!

"Bang!" there was a jolt from the bulkhead of the cabin, and the vertebrae of the frontal collision let out a miserable and crisp cry, and the burning pain in her back made her unable to even scream, and she could only lie limply on the bed, not to mention anything else.

Weber, who had been hiding in the next room, was extremely calm when he heard this voice, and he was not worried about the safety of the black-haired boy next door at all-after Edward woke up that day, the memory of killing three people in an instant was extremely deep in his mind, which had already made the little priest not surprised.

Edward looked at the "intruder" - he couldn't tell his face with his hood, but he seemed to have a vague impression. Lying on the bed, his body trembled as if he was convulsed, as if he was still afraid.

Despite his modest dress, the calfskin boots and black sheepskin gloves, the silver-plated hilt of the sword at the waist did not look cheap, and the cape with the hood was fine linen rather than ordinary coarse cloth - especially the leather armor on his body, Edward felt very familiar.

The black-haired boy who was thinking like this stretched out his hand to take off the hood, but the thin figure that was still trembling just now suddenly "jumped", and the whole person curled up and hid in the corner, and pulled his hood tightly with both hands: "Don't, don't come, you, did you hear it?!" The voice seemed to be shivering with his teeth.

Edward smiled very interestingly, bent down with full of energy, and said in a deep voice with great humility: "Your squire Edward Witwood salutes you, Sir Alan Kwyn - by the way, if you allow me to apologize for the rude act just now - we thought it was a thief!"

"Really, really you?" It was only at this time that Alan slowly took off the hood on his head, and a smile of joy appeared on his soft face with golden curly hair, as if he hadn't noticed how inappropriate the "duck sitting" posture was with his legs side by side, and he hadn't been able to notice the "sure enough" smile on Edward's face.

"Ahem, ahem...... No, it doesn't matter, it's just a misunderstanding anyway. The girl pretended to be an adult, holding her right hand on her lower back, which was still aching, and smiled like her father, Otto Kwin: "You are a guest of our house, just call me Alan." ”

“...... Or should I call you Miss Alan Kwyn?"

The girl's smile froze there, and then immediately showed a vigilant look: "How did you find out?!"

"It doesn't matter how I found out, it's the ...... You need me to keep this a secret, even if only temporarily. Edward raised his head indifferently, and his tone was very cautious: "In return, I need to know something else, which may be related to whether we can reach Turin City alive." ”

From the first time he entered the halls of The Hague Castle, Edward never ceased to wonder why the Lord Otto Kwyn was deliberately alienating his son, even a younger son, let alone his only direct heir.

He wasn't deliberately alienating Alan Kwyn, but he was alienating the people around him from her, so that they wouldn't have the opportunity to get too close to her, but he kept reminding them of the existence of this little son - yes, if Alan was actually a woman, then it would be explained.

A reason that sounds extremely absurd, but the reality is always more absurd and bizarre than imagined, and this unexpected situation beyond the scope of his own expectations made Edward extremely annoying, but also extremely excited - if everything was expected, then what is the difference between this world and his previous life, and what is the point of resurrecting again?

In fact, seeing Allen's dress, Edward had already guessed that she had definitely sneaked away, and that Lady Angelica must not have known about it, otherwise a large number of pursuers would have come from the castle a long time ago.

"I—I can sue you, but you have to swear, swear that you will never tell anyone about me on the boat!" Alan was still very alert, and his right hand was already on the hilt of his sword, "If you are still a devout disciple of the Radiant Cross, stand here and swear now!"

"In the name of the Radiant Cross, I swear by my soul and surname that I will never reveal Miss Alan Kwyn's whereabouts, or I will accept any punishment!" said Edward, calmly finishing his oath - it was of no use other than to reassure the little girl in front of him.

Or should it be realistic - if you are discovered, whether you know Allen's true gender or something else, the end will probably be much uglier than the content of the oath, so what is there to worry about?

"Actually, there's only one thing I want to ask - how many people besides you know about you sneaking out?" Edward deliberately kept his voice low, "Who else knows you're on this boat?"

............ "I'm sorry, ma'am, it's all my fault, I didn't look at Miss Allen, it's all my fault, it's all my fault......"

In the messy room, Mrs. Angelica, sitting on the bed, looked cold and full of disgust, looking down at the little maid who was kneeling there and kept apologizing, listening to the crying voice and the face full of tears, and the disgust in her heart was even stronger.

"I'm not sitting here to listen to your apologies,!" Even though the words were sinister, Lady Angelica's voice was still extremely soft: "Sue me, where has my dear little Allen gone?"

"I'm sorry ma'am, I was ......"

"Let me ask again, where has little Allen gone?" The streamer's tactful eyes instantly turned into a sharp blade that pierced through the heart, and the little maid who knelt on the ground and looked up was terrified, and her whole body kept trembling: "I, me, I...... I fainted, fainted, sorry ma'am!"

"That's how you repay me when I picked you out of the almshouse, gave you food, clothes and shelter, and gave you a precarious and stable life?"

"Monitor Miss Allen's every move for you, and then report back to you in time. The little maid replied obediently, and her petite figure curled up like a stray cat kneeling at Mrs. Angelica's feet: "Your kindness will always be remembered, if you want to punish, please punish it, people are wrong, I'm sorry for your wife, I'm sorry for ......."

"If you don't say it, I know where my dear little Allen has gone, you are just a servant, and I am her mother!" Lady Angelica kicked the little maid at her feet to the floor, and raised her slender neck very proudly: "If it weren't for the fear that my dear little Allen would be overwhelmed with grief, I would have cut off your head!"

"There are quite a few people who dare to shoot and shoot openly with the Mineste family, but this is really the first time that you are such a cheap servant!" the guard who followed behind the lady beckoned outside in understanding, and two guards walked in, one left and one right, and grabbed the little maid who was cowering on the ground.

"Go to the bottom of the dungeon, it's cool enough to keep her sober and sober, so as not to stir up trouble with me in front of little Allen!" Lady Angelica sneered, "Feel the generosity of the Mineste family." ”

A dark tone of despair filled the little maid's face, and two lines of tears flowed uncontrollably.

"You don't understand at all, Miss Allen, what exactly she wants, you don't understand at all...... What is happiness for the young lady!" The little maid's voice trembled: "You and Lord Kwyn...... There is no difference at all, it's just that Miss Allen is used as a tool at will. ”

"So you're just a servant -- you can't understand the greatness of your family, you can't understand what a family name that has been passed down for hundreds or even thousands of years means. With a disdainful wave of her hand, Lady Angelica asked the guards to drag the little maid out.

"Happiness, for the prosperity of the family, let alone becoming a tool, even if it is broken bones, it is extremely happy, how can you understand this kind of happiness condensed by noble dedication?!"
