Chapter 1125: Internal Worries
"Your Majesty said that you want to arrange knighthoods for your people, and this is what you asked Your Majesty to do, right?"
Elder Sonoda Dance was unceremonious and got straight to the point.
Seeing that she was so sure, I didn't hide it, and admitted it bluntly: "That's right, I asked for it, and this is the only request I promised to assist the Empress in tracking down the attack on Princess Anareta. ”
"Don't you feel guilty about doing this?" Elder Sonoda Wu raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "What is the difference between making demands on people by taking advantage of difficulties and robbing while the fire is hot!" ”
"There is a difference," I said righteously: "I am just a resident here, and I have nothing to do with the nobles and the royal family, so naturally I have no obligation to give free money." ”
Elder Sonoda Wu raised his eyebrows and said: "A gentleman doesn't take advantage of others' dangers, do you do this like a gentleman?" ”
"What do you mean by like, I'm not at all, why should I be a gentleman, how much a gentleman suffers" I spread my hands: "A gentleman must be open-minded, must be humble and courteous, must be loyal and patriotic, etc., don't you think these restrictions are too much?" And don't you think that because of these restrictions, there is a lot less fun in being a human being, and even less laughter in life, do you? ”
"A bunch of nonsense," the elder shouted angrily.
"Anyway, that's what I think, as for how you understand it, it still has nothing to do with me."
I don't care about the stalls.
Mai Sonoda's hair straightened, and she was about to add a few more flaming flames to the void.
The atmosphere was stalemate for a while, and the elder suddenly grabbed the staff, pointed the head of the staff at me, and said, "I really want to destroy you with magic!" ”
I looked relaxed and said: "Impossible, you can't do it, although I'm not a magician, but I still know a little bit about magic, the instantaneous magic power is small, not enough to kill me, the magic that can kill me has been chanting for a long time, and there is a chanting kung fu, I would have run away a long time ago, so I won't be stupid and wait for you to make a big move." ”
The Elder's expression was agitated, her body trembling, the staff in her hand trembling, but I wasn't nervous because she wasn't chanting.
After a long while, the staff was thrown by the elder and fell on the table, making a crisp sound, and she sighed deeply: "If it weren't for the constant internal worries of our clan now, how could I ask outsiders for help." ”
I spread my hands: "You think I want to help, it's a dispute between the nobles and the royal family, maybe there will be a civil strife, do you know how big the risk is, to put it mildly, once the situation changes, I am likely to be thankless, and finally end up with the name of a sinner who caused the civil strife of the elf clan, at that time, I will not be able to gain a foothold in Moonlight City at all, take such a big risk, do you say that I have a problem with the return?" Is it excessive? ”
Elder Sonoda Mai didn't squeak, she just stared at me panting, looking at her old appearance, I was really worried that she accidentally burped.
After stabilizing her mood for a long time, the elder finally stopped breathing, but her eyes were still glaring at me, and she said in a very unkind tone: "Do you know that because of the knighthood, we elders have become very unpleasant......
"It's supposed to be a good fit," I muttered.
"What did you say!" The elder raised his eyebrows and shouted.
"No, nothing," I was busy pleading.
"Although I don't want you to become a nobleman of my clan either, for the sake of the empress and the princess, I will help you this time."
Elder Sonoda's tone became extremely strong, as if it would take a great deal of courage to help me.
"Actually, you don't have to do this......" I was halfway through my words, but I saw that the elder's eyes were not good, and I had no choice but to swallow the second half of the sentence back into my stomach, and held back a smile: "Thank you for your help, I am polite here." ”
With that, the rules bowed.
The elder waved his hand: "Stand down." ”
I respectfully stepped back in cooperation.
Outside, I grinned, muttered 'pretending,' and then quietly went back the way it came.
When I got home, I was startled by a pair of shiny things, and when I looked at it, it turned out to be Remy's round eyes.
Patting my chest continuously, I couldn't help but say, "I'm scared to death, why haven't you slept in the middle of the night?" ”
Remy pouted in displeasure, "Where did you go?" ”
That tone, that demeanor, is a deep resentful woman who complains that her husband has not been home for a long time!
Reaching out and rubbing her soft hair: "Don't make trouble, I'm busy with business." ”
Remy pursed her lips with a look of 'I don't believe you', then approached me and sniffed up and down with her little nose for a long time, the expression on her face changed from displeasure and dissatisfaction at the beginning to confusion later.
After sniffing the smell, she tilted her head to look at me, and then floated back to the sofa with a puzzled face, muttering: "No, there should be a strange fragrance on the man who returns late......
Nani? How could Remy know this?
Four beautiful girls instantly appeared in my mind: it must be the four of them, who else would teach Remy this kind of knowledge!
Really, if this continues, Remy will be taught badly.
To be honest, I wanted to knock on the door of my room and teach them a good lesson, and tell them not to teach Remy everything, but seeing that it was too late, I dismissed the idea.
As soon as I fell asleep with Remy in my arms, I felt a feeling of discomfort coming from behind me, as if someone was staring at me with both eyes.
Subconsciously I was going to look back, but the action of turning around stopped, I estimated, as long as I turned around, those eyes would definitely disappear in an instant, let me pounce into the air, at the moment, the safest way is-
"Did you sleep?" I patted Remy on the back.
"No," Remy opened her eyes, and the fluorescence lit up again.
"Can you take the light from your eyes?" I asked her.
Remy shook her head: "Didn't you say it before, but you can't." ”
With an exhale, I said, "That's barely ...... bar. ”
Remy blinked: "Is there something wrong?" ”
"Hmm," I said, "you can quietly probe in a moment and help me see if there is anyone in the lower courtyard." ”
"Good!"
After Remy finished speaking, her little face became excited, and she raised her head little by little, like a hide-and-seek child watching the seeker outside.
I held my breath, looked sideways at her, and saw that after her big eyes passed over my body, she turned left and right several times, and suddenly froze at a certain point, and at that moment, her little face tightened, and blurted out: "Someone!" ”
"Shhhh ”
"All over in black tights, with a delicate bow and crossbow on the side of the waist and a dagger on the other side."
Listening to her description, there is no doubt that it should be the person of the elf assassination team.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to tell her to lie down and sleep, and to leave no one outside, when I heard Remy say again: "Hey, there's another person, and that person is dressed the same as the last time we met!" ”
