Arthur stared at Lisopp's corpse.

The lord had his eyes wide open until he died, and he looked angry.

Anyone who saw the corpse of this lord could feel the unwillingness and anger.

Although Arthur would not let this lord live, Arthur did not know that this lord would die so coincidentally and so ...... Dramatic?

Looking at the scene in front of him, Arthur thought for a moment and commented.

Then, the young 'medium' turned his gaze to little Lisopp.

Little Lisop at the moment, not in a very good state-

"Did I kill my father?

I killed my father again?

Why do I say again?

It was little Lithop who killed it, not me!

So who am I?

It's fake, it's all fake just now!

Really, it was all true just now!

How could I not tell the difference?

I can't tell the difference! ”

Little Lithop held his head and howled wildly.

One destruction is not terrible.

What is terrible is repeated destruction.

Escaping, he thought he could finally master everything, but he faced collapse again.

This time he couldn't escape, he couldn't escape.

He was firmly targeted by 'death'.

Or rather......

He chose death.

He just disappeared.

He thinks everything is false, and this falsehood gives him a choice of his own.

But little Lithop did not die.

'He' is still there.

He firmly believed that a loving father would not abandon him.

In fact, the same is true.

After Arthur took another look at the brand-new '1 gold' contract on the ground, the young medium's palm appeared on top of 'his' head again.

Even through the gloves, 'he' could feel the temperature.

And that voice brought tears to 'him' -

"Whatever you choose, I'll be with you."

A gentle voice nourishes 'him'.

also made him completely nourishment after disappearing in the collapse.

'He' became stronger, and eventually, completely replaced him.

The new little Lisop was prostrate on the ground, kissing Arthur's boots, and murmuring in his heart—

'Father! ’

Then, little Lisop turned over, rushed to Lisopp's body, tore off the corner of his shirt, picked up the bitten finger and dipped it in blood and quickly wrote on the placket-

Butlers Hill and Tel were bought by the Death Poets Society, yes......

The blood book came to an abrupt end.

The word 'yes' makes people think about it.

Arthur instantly guessed what little Lithup was going to do.

Lisopp died.

But that doesn't mean Lisop is no longer valuable.

On the contrary, the dead Lisop is more valuable in a way.

Because the former Lisopp saved Baron Borne.

Because the territory of Lisope is now in South Los.

The former is about the old lion.

The latter is about the tigress.

And......

Both covet the minerals of South Town!

This is almost universally known to passers-by.

Coupled with this bloody letter that makes people think about it, it really means that anyone can do it.

Arthur thought to himself, more compassion in his eyes.

And little Lithop picked up the '1 gold coin' contract, and handed it to Arthur for safekeeping along with the blood letter, and then said-

"Master, leave the rest to me."

Arthur did not refuse

In this matter, it is not appropriate for him to come forward directly.

Even, his appearance will make what was originally 'normal' abnormal and will be suspected.

But little Lithop, who is a bitter master, is different.

Everything will make sense.

Even if there were some irrationalities, Arthur would make them reasonable, after all, the tigress's swordsman was going to visit tonight

……

When Arthur returned to 2 Kirk Street from the secret passage, and came up from the bedroom in the basement, Malinda was chatting with Julie, the Countess's swordsman.

"Although the appearance of gunpowder has changed the situation on the battlefield, it is only part of the situation, not all, and the secret art is the real power!"

The Countess's swordsman said.

"Well, the secret art is indispensable, but gunpowder can also be combined with the secret art to exert greater power."

Malinda had no objection.

As a 'mystical person', this lady knows the power of secret arts.

Even, to some extent, those who are really strong can influence the course of a battle.

And......

There are not many such strong people in Nanjun.

The old lion, the tigress and even the famous nobles are all such strong men.

And she?

Also trying to become such a strong man.

So far, it's going pretty well.

"That's right!

From a 'gifted' to a 'mystical person', and even to an 'Arkana-level', it is an extremely long process.

Even if they are talented and have sufficient resources, they all start in ten or twenty years.

There are many surprises in the process.

And a single firebolt can reduce accidents by at least half.

Therefore, it is a good choice to let ordinary people serve the 'mysterious people' based on gunpowder. ”

The Countess's swordsman nodded repeatedly.

However, it was clear that the swordsman had misunderstood Malinda's meaning.

What Malinda wants to express is 'gunpowder with secret arts', not 'ordinary people holding gunpowder weapons to serve mysterious people and nobles'.

But this wise lady would not argue with the female swordsman at this time.

The views of both sides differ.

But both sides are right.

The only difference is the location.

Just at this time, Arthur walked in, and Malinda immediately smiled.

"Meditation done?"

When they just left, the two agreed to use 'meditation' as an excuse.

It's a great excuse for the 'mystery side'.

Every 'mystical person' has a fixed or non-fixed meditation time.

Fixed, naturally, is the time of daily mobilization of the Spirituality.

It's not fixed, it's random, maybe a breeze can make the 'mysterious person' feel something, and start meditating.

"Hmm!"

Arthur smiled and nodded, and then, greeting the female swordsman.

"Good evening, Julie."

"Good evening, Arthur."

As she spoke, the female swordsman handed Arthur a box in her hand.

Obviously, the female swordsman is not just talking about the 'mending gift'.

Inside the box is a wind chime with tiny cylinders -

[Name: Warning Wind Chime]

[Type: Other types of items]

【Quality: Secret Method】

[Attributes: 1, malicious perception; 2. Pleasant to the ear】

[Note: One of the vigilance props made by the alchemist 'Lady Abel', the master who has been looking for materials for many years is very careful about his own safety - this is inspired by the 'vigilance oil lamp' carried by the great nobles from the West Coast during the winter battles in the North County, but compared to the brutal 'Lantern Shadow Sentinel', this master prefers to use more gentle methods]

……

[Malicious perception, when an emotion full of negative energy appears within a radius of fifty meters from the wind chime, the wind chime will ring immediately, and when the normal wind blows, the wind chime will definitely not ring, even if it has shaken. 】

[Pleasant: When the wind chimes ring, the pleasant sound will make the malicious person fall into a trance, which requires a 'spirituality' judgment, when the 'spirituality' is higher than 5, the trance state will not appear, but the sound of the wind chimes will become rapid]

……

"Thank you so much for your generosity!"

Arthur said sincerely.

Any item of the arcane arts is precious.

Because you never know when they're going to save your life.

Therefore, even if Arthur is not short of arcane props, he will not refuse.

Not to mention......

It also represents the honesty of the swordsman.

Arthur quietly glanced at the description of [Warning Wind Chimes] about [Malicious Perception], and he already knew everything in his heart.

"Come on, I'll hang you up!"

The female swordsman picked up the [Warning Wind Chime] as she spoke, and was about to walk to the door.

Arthur did not stop this, but smiled and thanked.

The height of the female swordsman's two meters and a half is destined to make the other party very suitable for this.

"Is it possible here?"

The female swordsman raised her hand and gestured above the Scarlet Painting.

"Of course."

Arthur nodded repeatedly.

And just when the female swordsman's [Warning Wind Chime] was just hung up, a pleasant voice rang out like this-

Jingle bells!
