Section 78
As one of the few sunny months in the south, today happens to be a sunny morning.
When the sun fell on the red hair of the Red Witch, the long fiery red hair seemed to turn into flames, and with the aggressive pale red eyes, the whole person seemed to be a blazing flame.
She wore a red mage robe, and as the bard said, many people were willing to wear a mage robe to disguise the mage. But he wore a nondescript belt and a dagger over the mage's robesβalso red.
While Annan was staring at the Red Witch, the Red Witch was also looking at Annan.
It seems to be that tall, but it has become more tender and delicious than it was two years ago...... Thinking so, the Scar Witch opened her mouth and bit Annan's face.
"What are you doing?"
Annan tried to push the Red Witch away, but her strength was like that of a dragon, and she didn't move. It was still Annan's face that was bitten so that blood oozed out, and the red witch's tongue only let go of him when the mage robe automatically activated the defensive spell, licked the blood off the tip of her tongue, and poked the spell with her hand.
"Your greeting gift is very good, don't want it next time."
Annan rubbed the saliva on his face in disgust, but the neat row of tooth marks was still there.
At first, I suspected that the Red Witch was a red dragon, or at least a warlock with the blood of a red dragon, but now it seems that it is inseparable......
"It's a reward for you following me." The Scarlet Witch smiled, as if she knew something.
"I'm just here for the celebration......" Annan walked into the room, closed the door, and changed the subject, "Why are you here?" β
"When a pirate arrives on land, he is a land pirate!" The Scarlet Witch's boots rested on a chair - no mage would wear a pair of leather boots over their mage robes.
"You want to say thieves?"
"Uh-huh."
The situation is the same as Annan thought.
"What about your men?" Annan asked.
"Right here."
Annan raised his head and looked at the five or six strong men around him who were almost as high as the ceiling, those pirates obviously did not have undergone secondary development: "I mean the ones in Eternal Night Harbor. β
"I sold it to other pirates."
"Sell?"
The Red Witch is rightly the case: "They're all mine, why can't they be sold!" β
Don't try to measure a pirate morally β and a pirate with suspected red dragon blood.
"Okay...... So what is the purpose of you summoning these ......," Annan swept over the knotted muscles of the strong men, "what is the purpose of the bullies? β
"Do you want to have a big deal with me?"
"No, I advise you not to think about it." Annan decisively refused, "So what are you going to do?" β
"Kinap the rich and ask for ransom!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden noise and the familiar footsteps of heavy armor downstairs in the tavern.
"Big sister, this kid betrayed us!" The strong man said angrily.
"Leave it to me."
Annan answered the Red Witch's puzzled look, opened the door, and looked at the Huadu guards who rushed up the stairs.
"I'm a knightess, what's wrong?"
The captain of the guard who led the team knew Annan, and he saluted: "Your Excellency, we feel the fluctuation of magic. β
"I'm sorry, I accidentally activated the mage robes."
"Can you let us check?"
The captain of the guard stared at the guys in the room, and a knight suddenly whispered into the knight captain's ear: "They're wanted......"
The captain's eyes sharpened, and he ordered the guards crowded in the corridor to prepare for battle, and the strong men drew their weapons one after anotherβ
When the saber rattled, Annan's voice sounded: "They ...... It was the guards I arranged to secretly protect the princess. β
"But they're wanted."
"The wanted warrant was issued by the City Lord's Mansion, and you can find out ...... now"
The captain of the guards was stunned, and Annan couldn't think of a reason for a while, so he pretended to be very meaningful: "I have another purpose in doing this......"
"If you've been threatened......"
"I'm not threatened......"
The captain of the guard did not speak, and looked at Annan seriously...... Mainly tooth marks on the left side of the face.
"It's too hard." Annan said calmly.
Oh, Warlock......
The captain of the guard thought. The dangerous red-haired woman's gaze made him feel a burst of burning, but since even the royal knight personally endorsed them......
"Retreat."
The captain of the guard led the party out of the tavern.
Annan returned to the room with a sigh of relief, and greeted the red witch who looked at him with a smile: "You want us?" β
"You won't believe me if I lied to him, will you?"
Two minutes later, Annan also had a tooth mark on the right side of his face.
Annan rubbed his face: "It's never a good idea for you to kidnap nobles......"
"How do you know I'm going to kidnap?!" The Scarlet Witch exclaimed.
ββ¦β¦ You just told me that. "The people around me are either the princess or the Skeleton King...... Fortunately, the Scarlet Witch made Annan realize that he was still very smart, "In any case, now is not a good opportunity for you to do big business. β
The Scarlet Witch didn't say anything, but a strong man glared at him fiercely, "If you don't dare, step aside, boy." β
"I don't dare? Do you know Persona City, those weirdness are being chased by me, the Archbishop of the Order Church Valencia is my contemporary, and the princess talks to me with honorifics, you actually think I don't dare? β
"Uh...... I'm sorry. β
Annan snorted coldly: "The ones who passed through the street outside just now are either legends or epics, and the masters have to salute them when they stand in, why do you think that you can make a lot of money with at least several legends and dozens of epics?" β
The strong men were silenced.
Annan thought he had convinced them, until the Scarlet Witch spoke: "Isn't that more exciting?" β
I almost forgot about her.
The Red Witch constructs a dream for them with incendiary rhetoric: they will catch the great nobles and ask for a big ransom in the land of flowers, and then flee under the pursuit of legends and epics, and become the idol of all robbers-
Annan tried to interrupt several times, but the Scarlet Witch glared back with a vicious gaze.
Realizing that the instigated robbers might act today, Annan had no choice but to hold them down: "Do you want to arrest the princess?" β
The attention of the strong men was immediately attracted by Annan, and even the Red Witch was no exception.
"Aren't you a knight?"
"Don't you wonder why I went to the south to be a knight after I stayed in the north for a good time?"
"yes, why ......"
"Because...... Revenge, I want to seek revenge on the princess! I'm close to success now, do you want to join? Annan, who made up the reason, asked them, "The kidnapping of the prince and the daughter is more powerful than the kidnapping of the great nobles, and you will become a monument to the history of bandits!" β
The Red Witch said excitedly, "I'm joining!" But the boss has to be me. β
"Of course, but give me some time......"
Annan finally stabilized the Red Witch for the time being.
He felt a headache, the matter on the princess's side had not been resolved, and now he was entangled by the Scarlet Witch again. But he had to do it, because he really coveted the Scarlet Witch's skills...... Freecity's maritime trade has always been on the losing side, and as long as she is fooled back to Freecity, the sea will no longer be Freecity's weakness.
For the sake of Liberty City, I sacrificed too much......
Annan, wiping his cheeks, thought.
