Chapter 47

The next day, the king's decree was officially issued, appointing Thor as the special envoy of the kingdom, and escorting Princess Amada to the Orc Empire.This matter was immediately spread to the capital, especially Sol was directly promoted from Lord to Earl, which made many nobles envy him and believe that he will be the new favorite among the future lords.

Saul, who is the person involved, is naturally not happy. He will be leaving in two days. Reed and the others have already started packing their bags and getting ready to return to Lovell.

Darth and Volsa came again, while Thor was in the room sighing.Seeing him, Das laughed and said, "Congratulations, we should call you Earl Sol from now on."

Seeing that there were two people, Sol smiled helplessly: "I don't think there is anything worthy of congratulations."

Walsa leaned forward: "You are about to leave for the Orc Empire, and our brothers are here to see you off. Come, accept it, this is for your farewell."

After receiving a large handful of yellow gunpowder from Walsa, Sol was stunned and speechless: "Do you need to curse me to death so soon..."

Das patted Sol on the shoulder with a sad face: "There is no way, now the entire king knows that you, the special envoy, will never return, and we are also planning ahead."

Walsa put his hands together and prayed: "You can go to heaven with peace of mind, we will take care of Jessica and little Marlene for you..."

"Damn!" Saul was angry: "If it weren't for your father, would I be able to share this matter?"

Darth was not offended at all by Sol's disrespect to the king. He sighed: "Who told you to hook up with Amada? It's also known to everyone. Of course, you can only be sent to appease the orcs."

Sol's guts are green with regret, why did I provoke Amada back then?Besides, hooking up means hooking up, not adultery yet, so it's not worthwhile to just lose your life like this.

Seeing Sol looking like he was about to lose his temper, Walsa hurriedly said: "Okay, I won't make fun of you. This time I will go to the Orc Empire through Kavi, so you can go and see that kid Gein, he Or there is a way to help you."

Sol remembered that one of their "Four Plague Gods" named Gein did not come to the capital this time. It is said that he was exiled at the border between Kaviland and the Orc Empire.Although I have no impression of this guy, but only looking at the virtues of Darth and Volsa, it is not a good thing to think about.

Saul agreed, and then asked Das: "Is there any result in tracking down the murderer?"

Although Kifa was executed, anyone with a discerning eye knows that he is just a scapegoat, and the real culprit who killed Carrig and Morant is still at large.

Das shook his head: "I have no clue. We have been investigating around for the past two days, but we can't get any clues. Mr. Avarez is under a lot of pressure. Damn, if we can't find out, Dad will probably Remove him and let me replace the captain of the guard."

As he spoke, he lamented: "I don't want to sit on this crater now."

Sol thought of Avarez's justice and strictness, and felt that he was really wronged.However, there was such a big mess in the capital, and the security team in charge of security couldn't find any clues, so they were indeed partly responsible.

But for him, it would be absolutely beneficial and harmless for Das to become the captain of the guard, at least it would be of greater help to him when dealing with Cliff in the future.

Thinking of this, Saul smiled and said: "Opportunities and risks are equal. If you can solve this matter after becoming the captain of the guard, you will definitely impress the king. The black market in Freetown speculates that the murderers in the two cases are the same gang , The purpose is to confuse the public. They have entrusted me to investigate when I went to the Orc Empire, and I will inform you as soon as I have the result."

Hearing what he said, Darth's eyes lit up immediately, obviously he didn't have this idea.

In order to further win over the two, Sol took out the part of the jewels he got from the robbery that night: "Although the necromancer was not caught that day, he also robbed a lot of things. We brothers have a share, this is yours." .”

Seeing the gleaming treasure, Darth and Volsa immediately beamed with joy.Of course, the two of them were not gentlemen, so they happily divided up the spoils immediately.

Of course, Saul would not regret this bit of jewelry, not to mention the 1000 million in Freetown, even the share of the three brothers and sisters in the dead group is much more than this.After all, Das and Walsa were insiders, and Thor also needed to bribe the two of them. If they accepted the stolen goods, the robbery that night would be completely covered up.

"By the way, the celebration is over, what are you going to do?" Sol asked.

Das shrugged: "It seems that I will stay in the guard and continue working."

Walsa said: "Dad asked me to go to the headquarters of the Magicians Guild to practice, so I will probably go to the Bamuk Kingdom."

One of the three stayed in the capital, one went to Bamuk, and the other went to the Beastman Empire. It can be said that they are far away from each other. It is not known when there will be a chance to meet again.

Thinking of this at the same time, they couldn't help but remain silent.For a moment, Das first broke the silence: "What's the matter, no matter where we are, we 'Almuk Four Heroes' are good brothers."

"Yes, we can all stand out in the future, are you afraid that we may not have the chance to meet again?" Walsa also said.

After getting along for a few days, Sol really developed a bit of brotherly affection for these two guys who called him brothers.He spread out his palms when he heard the words: "It's a deal!"

Clap!Darth's and Volsa's hands covered it respectively.

for a while.

"Damn, which bastard is pushing so hard? My hand hurts to death..."

*
After sending Darth and Walsa away, Thor thought about it and decided that it was time to solve the problem of the three siblings.Taking two guards with him, he quietly came to the hotel where the three brothers and sisters lived.

Sol's arrival surprised the three brothers and sisters, and Lesta happily pulled him in: "Brother-in-law, have you heard that that bastard Kifa was sent to the gallows."

Sol nodded: "That guy has done all kinds of bad things, and he deserves to be blamed."

A cold light flashed in Lesta's eyes: "Hmph! Keefa is dead, and there is Sol, the lord of Lowell. Brother-in-law, don't worry, brother-in-law will hack him to death to avenge you."

Unexpectedly, he still couldn't forget this, Sol was shocked: "Don't!"

"Eh? Why?" Lesta was puzzled.

Sol coughed twice: "I mean, since Kefa is dead, we don't need to be obsessed with revenge. Let him go. Now the king is in danger, we'd better leave quickly."

Lesta hesitated: "But your whole family was killed by that guy, how can you not take revenge?"

That Khan of Saul, he made up things in order to survive, but he didn't know that it would cause such trouble.He pretended to be sad: "Yes, I hate that guy to the bone, and I wish I could tear him to pieces. But since I met you, you are my new family, and I really can't bear to let my family take risks for me." Ah, big brother!" He hugged Lesta as he said, blood and tears streaming down his face.

Lesta was so moved that he hugged Sol in a bear hug and cried loudly: "Brother-in-law! My good brother-in-law!"

Probably the word "family" made Kafir think of other places, her eyes and face were red.

Dylan sighed and patted Saul to express his comfort: "Since Sharon Bass said so, brother, let's leave the capital as soon as possible."

Lesta nodded and wiped away tears: "It happened that a lot of treasure was robbed that night, brother-in-law, come run with us, let's rebuild the dead group!"

Sol was taken aback, and thought to himself that I just don't want you to be bandits again, and rebuild something to kill the group.He hurriedly said, "Brother, do you still want to be a robber again?"

Now it was Lesta's turn to be taken aback: "What would I do if I wasn't a robber?"

Thor tentatively said: "You can do a lot of things without being a robber. With my elder brother's skills, he will definitely become a top-notch mercenary or adventurer. And with so much treasure, even if you don't do anything, you can still live well Bar."

Lesta shook his head again and again: "How can this happen? I don't know how to do anything other than being a robber. Besides, being a robber is more free and easy, which is more to my liking."

Sol has black lines all over his face, you really regard it as a lifelong career.

Kafir saw that Saul seemed to have something to say, so he pushed Lesta: "Brother, let's listen to Sharon Bass's suggestion."

Sol really wanted to tell the three brothers and sisters his true identity, but after thinking about it, he still felt that the time was not ripe.So he said: "Uh... What I mean is, don't be in a hurry, and discuss it slowly after leaving the capital."

Dylan agreed: "Sharonpas is right, let's find a way to get out first."

Saul patted his chest: "Leave this to me, I have already arranged it."

He said: "Tomorrow, the nobleman I am attached to will leave the city, and I have a way to take you out together. You can wait here for the next two days, and I will come to pick you up."

The three of them naturally had no doubts about him, and they all expressed their understanding.After discussing some details, Sol left.

When he reached the door, Suo Ertu turned his head again: "Brother, do you believe me?"

Lesta and Dylan looked at each other strangely, and nodded without hesitation: "Of course."

"That's good." Sol said solemnly: "Something that will surprise you may happen in two days, but please believe that I have absolutely no malicious intentions."

"Don't worry, Sharonpas, I will always trust you." Kafir smiled sweetly.

Saul touched her lovely face and went out to leave.

*******************************************************************************
That night, Freetown sent a huge sum of 1000 million gold coins on time.Sol was afraid that it would be unsafe along the way, so he wanted to ask Elebena to escort him, but when he went to her room, he found that the female dragon, who had made a lot of money during the celebration, had disappeared at some point.

Sol had no choice but to find the Blue Wolf mercenary group still stationed in the capital.In the past few days, accidents happened one after another in the capital. All the mercenaries who entered the city were interrogated, and the business was deserted.Rubens was worrying about the livelihood of his subordinates when Saul came to him, and everyone was acquaintances, so he readily agreed.

The next day, Lovell and his party, who had packed their bags, left Dusk under the escort of the Blue Wolf Mercenary Group, and officially embarked on the road back to the territory.Saul, Jessica and others were sent out of the city.

Along the way, Marlene held Sol's arm and almost refused to let go. Sol knew that she was still worried about not being able to go to the Orc Empire with him, so he let her be this last act of attachment.

Since they could not go too far from the city, the team stopped outside the city.Jessica was instructing Reid at this time: "Go back and tell grandpa that the lord is already an earl and can have the privilege of forming an army. But we have too few people in Lovell, you let him expand the garrison to 200 people first , Yeying team members will help with training and improve discipline. After you form a caravan, use them as guards. First, you can save the cost of hiring a mercenary group. Second, it can also be used as actual combat training. Come on, you want to..."

As expected of Jessica, who is the number one in domestic affairs, Reed can only nod her head in order after her instructions.

Remembering the three brothers and sisters who were still in the city, Sol said to Kress: "You wait here, I will be right back." Then he turned his horse and galloped towards the city gate.

"Where are you going?" Jessica asked loudly when she saw it.

"Urgent urination!" Sol waved his hand far away, and he was already far away.

Jessica was in a hurry, but she still had some things to say to Reed, so she could only look at Sol's back and be very angry.

Riding the horse to the hotel where the three brothers and sisters lived, they had already packed their luggage and waited for him.Sol greeted and led them to run out of the city.

Lesta was very surprised: "Brother-in-law, can we get out like this?"

Saul nodded confidently: "Don't worry."

The city gate was in sight, and Sol rushed to the soldiers guarding the gate on horseback first: "I am Thor, the Lord of Lowell, and they are my followers. We must leave the city immediately."

The city gate guards had already been ordered by Darth, and Sol could come and go freely, besides, Lovell's team had just left.They didn't doubt it either, and gave way immediately.

Seeing that he really left the city smoothly, Lesta was very happy: "Brother-in-law, you are really there, that bastard who pretended to be Lord Lovell, I really admire you."

At this time they were close to Lovell's team waiting outside the city, and Sol stopped.Jessica and the others saw that Saul had brought three more people back not long after he left, so they couldn't help looking over.

"Brother Lesta, Dylan, and Kafir, there is something I have to tell you." Saul said with determination when the three of Lesta caught up.

"What is it?" Dylan looked at Sol, then at Lovell, as if he had noticed something.

"Actually... I've been lying to you all this time. I'm Sol, the lord of Lovell."

"What!?" Lesta's eyes widened immediately.

Kafir also exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.

"What's going on?" Dylan said in a deep voice.

Sol smiled wryly: "Actually, Sharonpas is just a pseudonym. My real name is Saul Lovell." As he spoke, he told how he fell into the water when he was attacked, and how he met the three brothers and sisters, for fear of being recognized by them. The impersonation of Sharon Bass came out all at once.

This fact is so unbelievable that the three brothers and sisters were stunned for a long time after hearing this, but they did not recover.

"So, you are really the lord of Lovell?" Lesta pointed at him.

Saul nodded apologetically: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to deceive you. I have tried to explain to you many times, but... please believe me, I have no malice."

"Lord, who are they?" At this moment, Jessica and Kress rode over.

Sol spread his hands and introduced to both sides: "This is the steward of my territory, Jessica, this is the captain of the defense, Kress. Jessica, they are Lesta, Dylan, and Kafir."

Both parties looked at each other vigilantly and politely, especially Kafir and Jessica. The eyes of the two women met, and the sparks that erupted made Sol tremble.

What should be faced, always has to be faced...

"Sharonpas, who is she to you?" Kafir was the first to attack, as if on purpose, she still called Saul Sharonpas.

Sol laughed dryly: "Didn't I tell you, she is the steward of my territory."

Seeing him speak so blandly, Jessica burst into anger, and pulled Sol's neck: "What the hell are you doing?"

"Let him go!" Kafir quit, and picked up the mace from the saddle.

"Who are you? Why are you dictating here." Jessica looked at her without showing any weakness.

Glancing at Sol, Kafir grabbed his arm and said, "I'm his fiancee!"

For a moment, the field was so quiet that the sound of falling needles could be heard, and a gust of wind blew up, bringing up a few fallen leaves...

thump!Kress fell off his horse in fright, and he lost his voice: "Fiancee?"

Jessica slowly turned her head to look at Sol, her expression was extremely calm, but the few blue veins slowly rising on her temples still revealed her true mood.

"Oh? Since when did the lord have a fiancée? What a joy..."

Sol looked at her, then at Kafir, and covered his face with tears: "You, listen to me, okay?"

Sol recounted what happened during these days in detail, and finally said to Jessica: "I didn't mean to hide it from you. Under the circumstances at the time, I really couldn't help it."

Jessica finally calmed down when she heard that there were so many twists and turns after Thor fell into the water, and the three siblings even rescued him.But she still snorted and turned her head angrily.

Sol was helpless, and said to Kafir: "The reason why I let you come here is to give you an explanation, and to invite you to my territory. Brother Lesta, you can no longer be robbers, Especially Kafir, she deserves a normal girl's life."

After a pause, he said again: "We have been together for so long, you should know me very well. I dare not say anything else, but I will never oppress the people in the territory like other lords. If you believe me, then Go to Lovell, of course, if you want to leave now, I will never stop you."

Lesta and Dylan glanced at each other, both of them looked pensive.To be honest, the reason why the two became robbers was not only because they couldn't get used to those arrogant nobles, but also because of the habits of the "first generation big brother".It's not that they haven't thought about Kafir's future, so they are anxious to marry her off.

So Lesta was happy from the bottom of his heart when he had Sol as his brother-in-law. At the same time, he and Dylan secretly decided to let his sister and brother-in-law leave the bandit gang and live an ordinary life if they had the opportunity in the future.

Now that the brother-in-law has suddenly become the lord they have always hated, the two of them really can't recover for a while.But the two of Sol are very clear about his personality, so they don't have much rejection, especially when they think that Kafir can turn back into an ordinary girl in the future, they can't help but feel uneasy.

Finally, Lesta said: "It's not impossible, but what can we do in your territory?"

Saul was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Brother Eliesta and Brother Dylan are skilled, so let's join Lovell's defense team. As for Kafir, Jessica will definitely make proper arrangements, right?" , he turned to Jessica with a smile.

Jessica snorted, but still said to the three brothers and sisters: "Although our lord is a headache, he will never bully the people. As the steward of Lovell, as long as you can let go of your previous identities, I am very happy." You are welcome to live in Lovell."

As expected of Jessica, even though she was angry in her heart, she would not do anything disregarding the overall situation due to personal reasons.

"I won't go!" It was Kafir's turn to get angry.

Sol secretly groaned in his heart. He knew that if Kafir didn't go, Dylan and Lesta would definitely not go, and all his painstaking efforts would be in vain.

"Why, Kafir?" Now he felt like Zhu Bajie looked in the mirror—he was not a human being inside and out.

"I don't want to be controlled by her." Kafir pointed at Jessica angrily.

"What! Who wants to control you?" Jessica raised her eyebrows.

The two women looked at each other without showing any weakness, with dark clouds billowing above their heads, and countless electric currents crackling and flashing.With such power and influence, the big men around were silent.

Sol couldn't bear it anymore, he slapped the horse's head hard, causing the innocent horse to neigh and scream.

"Damn, I quit! Mom, who am I working so hard for? You!" He pointed at Kafir: "Isn't it so that you can live a happy life like an ordinary girl, and now it's the other way around? Get angry with me! If you don't want to go, if you don't go, then you will be your robber!"

"And you!" He pointed at the astonished Jessica: "Who is the lord? Don't forget that you are just a steward under my hand. It's fine to drag you at ordinary times, but now you will add to the chaos. If you don't want to do this If you are in charge, go back to Lovell!"

I have never seen Sol lose such a big temper, and everyone was dumbfounded for a while.Especially Jessica and Kafir, the current Saul is too different from the image they are used to, and there is a trace of fear in their eyes.

Seeing the furious Sol, Kafir flattened his mouth, and suddenly burst into tears.

Lesta was immediately at a loss, and hurriedly comforted her: "Kafir, don't cry, we just don't go."

"No, I...I'll go..." But Kafir said sobbing.

thump!Kress, who was overly surprised, fell off his horse again.

It was Sol who was the most surprised. After being stunned for a while, he couldn't help sighing in his heart: woman, alas, woman, what a creature I don't understand...

In any case, the matter was settled, and Sol took Kafir and the others back to the team.To these three strangers, Jessica explained that they had rescued Thor when he was in distress, and now they want to live in Lovell.

The enthusiastic Lovell people immediately welcomed her, and the young guards surrounded Kafir with courtesies, making her smile quickly.

Sol was finally relieved by this scene. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and turned his head, only to find that Jessica was staring at him intently.

"What, what?"

Jessica said coldly: "My lord was very majestic just now."

Thor was stunned and speechless: "I..."

But he didn't see the smile in Jessica's eyes who secretly turned her face away.

"Okay, let's break up here, you all be careful along the way." Sol said goodbye to everyone after everything was tidied up.

Kafir was surprised: "Sharon Bass, won't you come with us?"

Thor scratched his head in embarrassment: "The king sent me to the Beastman Empire as an envoy, and I can't go back with you for the time being. When I come back, I will go back to Lovell to find you."

Kafir rolled his eyes, and finally stopped on Jessica: "Is she going too?"

"Uh..." Saul had nothing to say.

"No, if she wants to go, I will go too!" Kafir said firmly.

Auntie, don't make trouble, okay?At this time, Sol really wanted to find a rope and hang himself.He said earnestly: "Jessica is my manager, that's why I went with me. Be good, go back to Lovell and wait for me, I'll be back soon."

Where did Kafir agree to? She waited to talk about it, but she was suddenly carried by Lesta on her shoulders, and she couldn't help but walk away.Unexpectedly, Lesta would do this, Kafir struggled desperately, how could he break free?

"Brother Lesta, let me go quickly! Sharonpas, if you don't let me go, I will..." Kaffir couldn't stop threatening, but he was already far away.

Finally getting rid of this difficult girl, Sol couldn't help wiping away his sweat.At this time, Dylan rode up to him and said, "Be careful all the way." Needless to say, he must have signaled Lesta to take Kafir away just now.

Then everyone bid farewell to him one after another, "Master, you have to be careful." Marlene kept turning her head all the way, with tears in her eyes, which made Sol truly feel her attachment to him.

After watching Lovell's convoy disappear at the end of the road, several people turned their horses and returned to the city.

************************************************** ***********************************
Jessica looked indifferent along the way, Saul knew she was still sulking about Kafir, so he took the initiative to show his favor: "Haha, Kafir is actually as cute as Marlene, after getting along for a long time, Jessica you I will definitely like her. She and I are not what you think, mainly because that day..."

Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Jessica interrupted him coldly: "Of course the lord's fiancée is very cute. I'm just your servant, so I can't say what I like or not. I don't know when the lord is going to get married. Ah? I'd better prepare early."

Sol was stunned and speechless by this sentence, and he turned his eyes to Chip and Kress for help.How could the two of them be so stupid as to wade into the muddy water between him and Jessica, they both sat upright on the horse without looking sideways.

"It's over, it seems that I won't be able to live in peace for a few days..." Sol secretly groaned.

"Excuse me, Lord Lovell?" Suddenly, a pleasant voice came.

Sol Daqi turned his head to look, but saw a beautiful elf woman standing on the side of the street, leading a winged horse with complete saddle and pedals in her hand, and two forest guards standing on the left and right.

The beauty of the elf woman attracted the attention of all passers-by on the street, but Sol and his party were thinking about their own things so they didn't see it.Not knowing why she called him to stop, Sol quickly got off his horse.

"Ah, I am Sol." Sol came to her.

The elf bowed gracefully: "The singer heard that you are about to go to the Orc Empire, and told me to send you a winged horse. I hope it will be helpful for your journey."

"Give it to me?" Thor looked at the tall and handsome winged horse behind the elf with a white body and outstretched wings in surprise.

The winged horse is a monster that only the elves can breed. It is a variant of the high-level monster unicorn, so it cannot be used as a summoned monster.But winged horses have the noble qualities of all steeds, loyalty, docility, speed and endurance, and their unique wings allow them to soar freely in the sky.

For a long time, the winged horse knight has been the most famous unit of the elves besides the forest guards.Someone once said that when the Winged Horse Riders are dispatched, the overwhelming beauty is enough to make anyone intoxicated.Because winged horses are extremely difficult to breed, the elves have always regarded them as treasures. Atria's willingness to give one to Sol shows her concern for him.

"Where is the master? I want to say goodbye to her." Jessica also came over.

The elf lowered her head and said apologetically: "The chanter has already set off to return home this morning. I followed her instructions to send the winged horse to Sir Sol, and I stayed until now. She asked me to tell Sir Jessica that Sir Sol is A good lord, please do your best to assist him."

"Ah..." Jessica exclaimed, and turned her head to look at Sol involuntarily, but said nothing.

Sol took the rein from the elf, and seemed to know that this was his new master. The winged horse obediently took a few steps, and put his neck close to Sol affectionately.

Stroking the soft and white mane of the winged horse, the elegant figure of Atria emerged in front of Sol's eyes.Although the two didn't have much contact, this extraordinary elf left a deep impression on him.

"The chanter's entrustment has been fulfilled, and it's time for me to leave." The elf saluted and left.

After taking two steps, she turned around again: "By the way, the chanter asked me to tell you that this trip to the Orc Empire is full of dangers. I hope you will take good care of Your Excellency Jessica."

Unexpectedly, she would say such words suddenly, both Sol and Jessica were caught off guard, and they immediately blushed.

"Hey, this...I..." Saul scratched his head.

The elf was only responsible for passing on the message, and she didn't understand the meaning of the sentence just now.Saul's strange reaction made her a little strange, and after another salute, she turned and left.

After the elf left, Sol and Jessica were a little afraid to look at each other.To avoid embarrassment, Sol stepped onto the winged horse: "Okay, let's go back."

The winged horse was extremely docile, neighed softly, and ran smoothly with hooves.After waiting for a while, the three of Jessica also rushed after her.
