Emerald Castle, vestibule corridor.

Dean and the Grand Duke Swordsman walked side by side, and the two talked in a low voice.

"This Nock should also be part of the arranger, or this arranger found Nock, but for some reason, Nok was handed over to Mike in the dungeon!"

Grand Duke Swordsman said with a little deliberation.

"Well, according to Mike, Nock has no skills, and has always been in a position of cooperation - and according to the rules of thieves, even if the two of them cooperate, there will definitely be some conflict of interest, once or twice, and then, day by day, it just so happens that Nock has such an opportunity to get a large amount of Kimpton and get rid of Mike...... I don't think he'll mind taking such a vote! ”

Dean nodded, agreeing with the words of the Grand Duke Swordsman, and then, he frowned slightly, and said with a solemn touch in his voice: "The only thing I'm worried about now is whether this Nock is as smart as he seems!" ”

"You mean...... Kill somebody to do away with a witness? ”

The Grand Duke swordsman was stunned for a moment, and then reacted.

"The dead are the easiest ones to keep secrets—the one behind the scenes is planning a big operation, and he will never be negligent in such a small place! Therefore...... Definitely going to kill the most susceptible to mistakes: Nock is never going to be let go - even if he has Mike in his place, he's not really safe! So, I hope he's really smart and understands his situation! ”

Dean nodded again and said slowly.

At the same time, Dean's pace picked up again.

And the Grand Duke Sword Master also quickened his pace and followed.

But. As soon as the two of them walked out of the corridor of the front hall, they were stopped by-

"Young Master. A gentleman named Nord is waiting for you outside the castle! ”

Apparently Tom, who had been waiting here for a long time. As soon as he saw Dean, he walked over quickly, speaking very quickly, but very clearly.

As Dean's entourage and domestic servant, Tom did not enter the conference room, but was arranged to belong to the outer fort area where the entourage and servants gathered.

The castle guard also informed Tom about Dean's requests for an audience and a briefing—this was a sign of etiquette and respect for the guests.

"Nord?"

Dean didn't stop, casually asking.

At the same time, the image of a mercenary with a weak temperament immediately came to mind—the other party had appeared in Tyre. Also a frost nobleman.

He even hired other mercenaries to confirm whether he was a true Frost Noble.

Before arriving in Nangang County, because of the relationship between the Seymour United Family, Dean thought carefully about this person who belonged to this United Family - to judge the attitude of the Seymour United Family towards him.

However, the conclusion is not very optimistic.

At its simplest, simply hiring a mercenary who had nothing to do with the Frost Nobles to investigate him was enough to illustrate it; Not to mention, there are also people with ill intentions in this mercenary army.

Therefore, for Nord appeared. Dean was very surprised.

"Yes, he's waiting for you outside the castle drawbridge!"

Tom didn't know what Dean was thinking. Just from the point of view of an entourage, a servant.

"Hmm!"

Dean nodded, then glanced at the Grand Duke Swordsman, and the two of them sped up again.

Now they obviously don't have any more time.

However, Nord, who represents the Seymour United family, is also indispensable; After all, Dean still has Zelgaon's last name - so a brief meeting is the best.

……

Emerald Castle, outside the suspension bridge.

Nord, who was dressed in an ice blue coat, wore a one-sided glasses, and his already weak aura became more and more weak.

Although he carried a thin sword at his waist, he still looked like a noble scholar rather than a so-called mercenary.

Standing next to the carriage, Nord glanced in the direction of the castle from time to time.

The expression that should have been plain showed a touch of anxiety.

In fact, when the family meeting was over that night, Nord's anxiety did not subside in any way-

Because, after discussing the question about the surname 'Zelgaon'.

The representatives of the United Family raised their opinions on the second day, believing that the elder was too old to continue to be one of the decision-makers leading the United Family.

They need a new elder.

As an elder, Ronke remained silent about such a mentions.

There was neither agreement nor opposition.

looks like it's none of your business.

Nord knew very well that this was because the attitude of the family representatives on the issue of 'Zelgaon' had completely disheartened the elder.

For those greedy dog-like guys, Nord also has no favor.

So, he showed up here after learning that Dean had entered the Emerald Castle.

There was the order of the elder, and there was also his thoughts.

Therefore, when Nord saw Dean's figure, he immediately took a few steps to meet him.

"Lord Zelgaon!"

In front of the drawbridge of the castle, Nord stopped and bowed.

Without permission, visitors can get to the closest location to the castle, which is where Nord is at the moment; If it goes any further, it will be disrespectful and offensive to the master.

"Nord, what's the matter with you?"

Dean said that he had something to do without stopping, and at a very fast pace.

And behind him, Tom, who was leading the horse, explained more about the problem.

Nord looked at Dean, who didn't stay, and then at Tom, who was leading the horse, and then looked at Tom, who was holding the horse, but he didn't know how to speak under Dean's hurried attitude.

"Nord, what's the matter with you?"

Dean, who didn't get an answer, asked again, stopping in his tracks. But his brow furrowed.

The elder said he did his best. But others have long been blinded by greed. He had no way to redeem the intentions of these men—the union called Seymour, and he, even as an elder, had no real decision. ”

Looking at Dean, who was slightly unhappy, Nord's heart tightened, and he subconsciously said the elder's words as they were.

"Is that so?"

Dean was stunned, then his brow furrowed even tighter.

Undoubtedly, the situation of the Seymour family was somewhat unexpected by Dean.

Most. It didn't surprise Dean, after all, if it was him, he wouldn't want someone to appear out of nowhere, suddenly overriding him.

Not to mention, Kimpton is also involved.

Therefore, those who have an attitude of diswelcome to him, etc., Dean is well aware.

Even, for this reason, Dean will also have the original plan. Several adjustments have been made.

However, the appearance of this 'elder'. But to Dean's surprise.

Listening to the meaning of Nord's words in front of him, it was clear that this 'elder' was truly loyal to the surname 'Zelgaon', but he could not support it alone.

"That's right, and because the elders support your return to the family, those guys have even begun to choose to impeach the elders - they are all a group of white-eyed wolves, and they have long forgotten the kindness of the elders to them in the first place!"

Nord's words were filled with a deep sense of indignation, and then, quickly, such indignation turned into an expectation.

"So, in addition to relaying the Elder's words, I hope you can help us!"

Nord said.

"That's your carriage?"

Dean didn't answer, just pointed to the carriage beside him and asked.

"Yes!"

Nord nodded.

"Alright, take us somewhere, and say as we go - Tom, tether your horse to the back of the carriage!"

Dean commanded.

"Okay, young master!"

Tom sprang into action immediately.

Dean and the Grand Duke Swordsman stepped into the carriage, Dean and the Grand Duke Swordsman sat on one side, and Tom and Nord sat opposite.

The relatively wide carriage does not look crowded even if there are four people in it.

"Go to the second main road in the docklands!"

Through a small window in the carriage behind him, Dean instructed the coachman, and then, turning to look at Nord, asked, "What do you mean by you asking me to help you?" ”

"Because the Elder supports your return to the family regardless of the interests of the family, the representatives of the other families think that the Elder is too old to rule them—but these families never think about how they came to join Seymour's joint family in the first place, and at that time they were completely empty shells, or even ...... It's like a beggar! What did they look like in the beginning? You definitely can't imagine ......"

Obviously, Nord was angry, and said all the things that should not have been said.

There are stories about the ragged appearance of a certain family representative, and the representative of a certain family who sold his ancestral home in order to live a decent life, etc.

Almost all the embarrassed looks were spoken.

The Grand Duke Swordsman on the side looked at Nord with some surprise, and at this time, the frost nobleman realized that he had lost his words, his face turned red, and he stopped talking.

"Is there such a thing as the Seymour United Family?"

Dean's gaze was on the Grand Duke's swordsmanship.

"At first, the situation of the Seymour family was really not good, but ...... I didn't expect to be so bad! ”

The Grand Duke Swordsman replied.

"So, you're here on behalf of the elders you call them this time? Still is? ”

Dean turned his head and looked at Nord again.

"It's me! The Elder was already disheartened—he didn't want to dance with these jackals anymore and was ready to step down from his position as Elder! ”

Nord replied sincerely.

"Hmm, can I meet with this elder?"

Dean asked after a moment's silence.

"Of course! When? ”

Nord nodded in surprise and asked impatiently.
