Inside Notre Dame, Nock looked at Leo and the others who were sitting at the bottom and couldn't help but smile.

"You've all decided? It's too late to leave, or it will be too late for you to quit when the church army arrives. What I am doing now, the Holy See cannot tolerate. ”

Nock sincerely persuaded the people sitting below.

These were: Leo, Miledi, Rena, Hope, and the new countess Lillian Rhein Sheffield and her three thousand Musketeers who had arrived by boat from the Lionheart Kingdom.

That's right, it's Nock's sister who was once in the Notre Dame Cathedral of the Lionheart Kingdom, and Lillian, who was sent to Prussia by Queen Elizabeth and became the granddaughter of the Grand Duke of the Rhine!

With the help of the Grand Duke of the Rhine, Lillian secretly returned to the Kingdom of Lionheart with a thousand soldiers a few years ago, reclaiming her own territory and inheritance from her uncle.

With Elizabeth's support, become the youngest countess of the Lionheart Kingdom.

Immediately afterwards, based on the 1,000 soldiers supported by the Grand Duke of the Rhine, 3,000 cavalry were trained, and equipped with the latest muskets of the Lionheart Kingdom.

When she heard that Nock had returned, she had already begun to arrange the affairs of the territory to the adjutant, preparing to bring someone to Nok.

As a result, halfway through, I heard that Nock actually "rebelled" and killed the cardinal and the king and queen of Fran.

Lilian, who originally only brought 500 people, directly asked people to go back and bring the remaining 2,500 cavalry.

The Lilians had arrived the previous evening, but her army had arrived in the morning.

At this speed, Nock was envious when he knew what was going on.

Leo, who should have betrayed Nock, knew that Nock was dangerous after hearing that Nock had done something earth-shattering.

So he ignored Sophia's obstruction, put on his armor, gathered all the troops under his command, and then, either threatened or bewitched, wrapped all the small lords of Champagne into his own team, and rushed to support Nock.

Sophia is puzzled and asks Leo why.

Leo just said lightly: "I can seek power for the sake of your mother and son, but I can't give up Nock for the sake of power!"

Because when I had nothing and all my thoughts were lost, he was the only one by my side.

If he is now radiant and powerful, I can accompany you in obscurity.

But now that he's in danger and needs help from someone around him, I can't let him go into danger alone.

I'm sorry, but I hope you don't blame me. Take your children and possessions, and go.

If Nock and I survive the danger, you can come back to me, and if I don't return, forget about me! ”

Leo walked very resolutely, and Sophia's mother and son wept into tears, but they couldn't hold him back.

When Nok stood on the city wall, he saw Leo arriving at the city gate with a large army.

Instead of asking him why he came, or keeping him out, the gates were wide open to welcome Leo and his army of ten thousand into the city.

The simple and decisive behavior surprised the troops defending the city at that time.

Even Hope secretly asked Nock why he believed a traitor.

Nock explained with a smile, "During the years I was missing, Leo became a father, so he was selfish and he betrayed me.

But from the moment he arrived at the city gate with an army of ten thousand men, he said, "I am coming." I knew that now he had given up his father's identity and stood by my side as a knight.

I have no reason to doubt the loyalty and faith of a knight.

Because I know him better than anyone else. ”

Even Leo sat down steadily, let alone the others.

Fish-man Hope doesn't care about the seriousness of the matter at all.

He was just a lowly fish-man, at least in the eyes of the Terrans, dirty, rude, primitive, and lowly.

But by Nock's side, he saw the excitement of his own life.

He was not afraid of death, but only of returning to the ignorant life of the old tribe.

Rena is not worried, she has been abandoned by the family from the moment she refused to fall victim to the family marriage.

Even her father and mother had disowned her.

Her brother had even tried to kidnap her to curry favor with other nobles, and if it hadn't been for the appearance of Miledi and the threat to Rena's family in the name of Reims Cathedral, Rena would have been a victim long ago.

So, in her heart, Reims Cathedral is her home.

Dying for her teacher is her glory as a dispensing nun!

As for Miledi, where is Nock, she is there, even if Nock says that she wants to rebel against the Holy Church, she will not hesitate to help cut down the Pope!

"Brother Nock, don't persuade anymore. Since we're sitting here, there's nothing to retreat from. In addition, I informed Siblings Hywell and Avril, who are now the sons of the Villiers of the Unicorn Kingdom.

Hywell became the heir to the Villiers family, and Avril was married to the son of a duke.

I'm sure they'll come with troops to join you soon.

By the way, I caught an old acquaintance on the way, and you'll love to meet her. ”

The one who spoke was Lillian.

Nock was surprised to hear that he had caught an old acquaintance.

The person who can be called an old acquaintance by Lillian must be someone from England City in the Kingdom of Lionheart.

Only the people there are the "old acquaintances" that he and Lilian both know.

"Come on, bring people up!"

Lillian gave the order, and the guards outside the door pushed two people who were tied up with flowers and walked in.

As the two "captives" got closer and closer, Nock's eyes gradually changed from doubt to surprise, and then to helplessness.

Leo on the side stood up directly, with a complicated expression.

There is surprise, there is anger, there is sadness, there is bitterness.

"Lillian, what are you holding him for? Aren't you embarrassed by me and Leo! ”

Nock said meaningfully to Lilian.

Lillian's expression was stunned, she looked at Nock, then at Leo, and then at Leo's gaze when she saw the black-haired man in the captive, and suddenly realized.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not talking about old acquaintances and I'm not referring to Sherlock Holmes. He's a well-known detective in England now, but he can't get into my eyes. At least I didn't expect him to get involved with our old acquaintances, and catch them by the way.

Leo, if you want to take people away, please. All I want is this guy next to me. ”

"Lillian Sheffield! As the Count of the Kingdom, you colluded with other people to kidnap your own people! ”

Sherlock Holmes, who was escorted to the center of the hall, looked at Lilian who was sitting next to her, and immediately scolded her loudly.

didn't notice that Nock, who was sitting on the main seat, and Leo, who was at the bottom right, had gloomy expressions.

"Sherlock, I didn't expect that I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and you still haven't changed your temperament!"

Nock stepped off the stage and stood in front of Sherlock.

"If I'm not mistaken, you're thirty years old this year, aren't you? Why, becoming a detective makes you wonder why? How dare you yell at a nobleman? Don't forget, you're a prisoner now!

If it weren't for Leo's sake, I'd have ordered someone to drag you down and cut you down right now!" ”

Sherlock looked at Nock suspiciously, and gradually, from doubt to surprise.

"It's you! Nock Lane! You're not dead! ”

Nock sneered, "A shameless person like you is living a good life, how can I be willing to go to see the Holy Lord early?" However, you are still so cold-blooded! Your biological father is standing in front of you, and you pretend not to see it.

No way? You don't really recognize your biological father, do you?

Or do you think you have already thought of him as a dead man in your heart? ”

As soon as Nock's words came out, Sherlock was messy.

"Impossible! How could he still be alive! That monster! He should have died sixteen years ago! ”

Sherlock yelled uncontrollably, his eyes flustered at the people in the hall, and finally locked onto Leo.

Only Leo in the field is the most suitable for Seeger's age and gender.

"It's you! You are him! Why aren't you dead yet! ”

Sherlock panicked at Leo's sad eyes.

He remembered the picture of backstabbing his father in the English Grand Court. I even remembered that I failed in the backstab, gained notoriety, and finally left my hometown and had to take refuge in my uncle!

Unexpectedly, more than ten years have passed, and he has become a famous detective, but this monster still appears in front of him.

"What the hell are you going to do! You monster! You've ruined the first half of my life! Now that I'm successful in my career, you want to pester me again, don't you? You're just trying to ruin me! ”

Sherlock angrily questioned Leo, and Leo's heart was cut like a knife.

Even if he said that he would forget this rebel, regardless of his life or death.

But now in the face of the rebel's questioning, he can't even open his mouth to refute!

"Enough!"

Nock reached out and pinched Sherlock's cheek, preventing him from screaming.

"Sherlock, don't treat others as you please. Lillian said that she didn't want to arrest you at all, you were just an accident in passing.

So, don't be embarrassed here. Nobody cares about your little detective status. Everyone here is a hundred times more noble than you!

Leo, in particular, is now the commander of the Franco-Protectors, and it's not something you little detective can cling to!

Come, put him in a dungeon, starve him for two days, and wait for him to be released! ”

Nock threw Sherlock to the ground, ignoring Sherlock's shouts and letting the guards drag him down.

Nock turned around and patted Leo, who was ugly, and didn't say anything more.

Leo also understands that he can't blame Nok for overstepping his behalf, but he himself can't be ruthless in attacking Sherlock.

In the end, it is inevitable that he will be soft-hearted and let people go.

But now Nock is in a critical period, and every accident cannot be allowed.

Locking up Sherlock is the best option. You can't kill this rebel with one sword!

"Now, can you show me who you really are? Old-familiar-man hiding under a cloak——! ”

Nock's eyes were fixed on the woman in the cloak with her head bowed.

Yes, the other captive was a woman.

The breath on his body is still very familiar.

The breath and magic of the cultists of Deity fluctuate.

The woman was going to sneak up on her, but she might not be sure, and the spell had been hidden.

No way, who let the hall in addition to the guards, there is also a group of people.

Any one of them is not weaker than a woman in a cloak.

Faced with Nock's questioning, the woman under the cloak sneered:

"Are you sure you want to see me for what I really am? Don't you regret it? Or do you no longer feel guilty about what you did? Nock Lane! ”

As a final question echoed over the hall, the woman lifted her cloak.
