The killer did not want to be found by Annan - there was no doubt about that, but Annan still did not understand what to do.

Mr. Fast only gave him the solution to the problem, but not the tools.

"I don't know." Fast said disdainfully: "You actually ask a warrior such a question? Ogres know that they are stuck in their throats with leg bones and need to ask the mage for help! ”

"Well, you can try to do what you do best."

"What do I do best?"

"Play the charm of a warlock."

Annan thought of the three people in Breezy City who were influenced by his charm: Mentor Irilanzer, the Countess, and Rona Gilman,

As a 1,500-year-old elf, Irilanzer means that she knows many secrets, and that her status as a mage tower mentor or an elf makes her a companion no less than Olmedo. But the overzealousness always made Annan worry that he would be eaten at some point.

Secondly, the countess, Lady Maria, who has inherited a huge inheritance but lacks the strength to protect her, can complement Annan, but she doesn't seem to be so simple......

Finally Rhona Gilman...... A notorious freak family, she apparently wants to eat Annan too, and in the true sense of the word. It's not a good idea to hang out with her.

After making the comparison, Annan already had an idea.

"Abby, help me get a carriage ready."

The carriage with the distinctive snowflake emblem left the estate again.

Annan looked out the window of his car and saw that the crowd outside the manor seemed to be gathering again.

Whether or not these people were instructed by Augusta Olmedo, this would not be the only means.

"It's okay, I'll get rid of them when I come back."

Mr. Fast's reassurance made Annan wonder if he could catch the people who had gathered them and interrogate them. Then Annan was horrified by a speculation: could this be a trap laid by Augusta Olmedo?

Is he waiting for himself to lose patience and break the rules?

The ungathered crowd disappeared as the carriage went away, and Annan said solemnly: "Mr. Fast, I need you to take Martin back to Pinglin Town after you return." ”

"Are you worried about Aunt Susan?"

"Hmm."

"And what about your side?"

"Didn't Michael tell you?" Annan took out the blue dragon's faded dragon skin from the inner pocket of the mage's robe, "I can summon a dragon." ”

"I'm starting to wonder if you're an impostor......" Fast gave Annan a serious look and nodded, "I'll rush back to Hirabayashi Town, or better yet?" ”

"I'm worried that something will happen on the road."

The killer can attack the Reeves family's convoy, and he can attack Aunt Susan's family, who are protected by Mr. Fast. Staying in Hirabayashi will be protected.

"Here's for you, boy."

Remembering something, Fast took out a ring and threw it to Annan.

"Mr. Victor asked me to send it." Fast tucked the money bag back into his belt, "A magic ring that burns concealment." ”

Annan's mage robes are used for defense and probing, and the Fireball Ring and Medium Elemental Summon Ring can deal with less difficult enemies. The new Concealment Ring makes up for the lack of a means of escape.

"Thank you, Mr. Victor, for me."

Now Annan has three rings, which he wears on the index, middle and ring fingers of his left hand.

Dozens of minutes later, when I came to Annan in the north of Breeze City, I found a long queue of carriages outside the Earl's Manor, and many young nobles were waiting anxiously by the carriage.

What's going on?

Fast got out of the carriage, and it wasn't long before he got back into it.

"It is said that the countess who has died of her husband sends out an invitation to find a man who can protect her and the count's estate. You're here at the right time. ”

After dozens of minutes of waiting, it was finally Annan's turn to enter the castle.

Annan did things according to Fast's instructions:

When he leaned against the door of the living room with a rose in his mouth, and said in a low voice: "Good morning, beautiful lady, a good day begins", the dignified countess smiled gracefully: "Hello, Your Excellency the King of the North." ”

Annan blushed suddenly.

It didn't take long for Annan to walk out in a gloomy manner.

"How?"

"It should have failed......"

It won't be long before the news that "the king of the north wants to eat the meat of the countess" will spread among the nobles.

……

On the other side, Annan had just left, and the lightness on the countess's beautiful face had completely disappeared, and she ran anxiously with her skirt, not even bothering to kick off her shoes, and her fair and tender feet stepped on a soft blanket and broke into the dark room, prostrate in front of the shadows.

"As you expected, the king of the north didn't hold back, and when he tried again, I kept my distance from him......"

"The priest said that if he found another opportunity to meet, he would promise him."

"And then?"

"Do you need me to teach you......"

……

"Martin ......"

At the Manor Restaurant, Martin, who struggled with apple pie, was unheard.

"Martin ......"

Martin looked around: "Who's talking?!" ”

"Martin, it's my ......"

Martin held up the apple pie and shouted in horror, "The apple pie has spoken!" ”

"I'm Augusta......"

Martin, with a bulging stomach, leaned back in his chair, his face full of food dregs, and asked in a daze, "Who is Augusta?" ”

“…… Have you never resented injustice? Come on...... Unleash your inner beast...... Stop suppressing your emotions, you're not a nobody who doesn't get taken seriously"

The murmur of the old voice gradually filled his mind, Martin's eyes gradually became eerie, and his body in front of the dining table began to tremble.

“…… Release...... Beast...... Don't ...... again Depressed ......"

"Become a Beast !!"

Martin's scarlet pupils suddenly lifted, as if in an instant his clawed palm was clawed at the apple pie on the table.

"I can eat another one!"

……

"It is said that the nobles loved all kinds of banquets."

Fast began to suggest again. As a warrior, no one had ever asked him what he thought, and he cherished this opportunity: "There will be a banquet for the birth of their heirs, and the ninety-ninth lady will have a banquet." You haven't had a banquet since you came to Breeze, have you? ”

"You can send out an invitation, take the opportunity to win over those who want to join you, and by the way, invite the Countess again to test her attitude." Fast felt that it would be a pity to give up the Countess just like that.

"That's more boss than the boss of the wine lady......

"I'll think about ......"

Back at the manor, Annan saw the regrouped crowd.

As the carriage slowly passed in front of them, the men fell silent, staring at their faces through the windows, as if they had seen them glint with an eerie light.

The carriage returned to the estate, and then, protests continued to sound in the back.

Shortly after his return, Fast set out for the town of Hirabayashi, and three hours later, in the afternoon, Annan received a letter, but not from Oxulund, but from a mage apprentice from the Mage's Tower.

Annan vaguely guessed where the letter came from, and the signature on the envelope was not surprising:

Irilanzer.
