Destiny Thief

Chapter 83 The Injured Man I
Afron, Clover, a separate building, two women.

Two young women, judging from their age and appearance, it might be more appropriate to call them girls.Standing in the corridor outside the room, the corridor is covered with a solid and smooth wooden floor, and the sun shines through the shade of trees in the garden and the windows in the corridor, casting golden spots.They leaned against the window, deliberately lowering their voices to talk, for fear of waking someone who was sleeping in the room.

"Cousin Lena, you seem to be very concerned about that man."

A girl giggled softly, covered her mouth halfway, and glanced at the servant who was cleaning—it was a middle-aged woman who had served in this manor for more than ten years. Professionalism allows her to focus on her work.She seemed to have never heard of the conversation between the two girls. She just rubbed and rubbed the antique vases on the shelves in the aisle until the enamel on them became bright like a sparkling lake, then she moved away and walked towards the other vases.

Very responsible work attitude.

The girl commented from the bottom of her heart.She has a head of smooth, light golden hair, which was carefully combed and tied into two braids of equal length, short and thick.Hairstyles that are too complicated and cumbersome are not welcome in the tradition of the Escud family. Girls’ braids, maybe not braids, are simply tied with two white cloth ribbons—this is a standard Double tail.

"Is he better?"

Beside the girl with twin ponytails, another girl with red hair and shawls did not respond to her teasing, her slightly worried brows squeezed out a few fine lines on her raised skin, looking at the girl, she asked softly.In fact, asking this question is completely superfluous. When the man was carried back to the manor, she knew that it was almost impossible to recover from such a serious injury in a short period of time. matter--

The bare back was pitted and bloody, and the skin was rolled up, revealing a thin layer of white fat and maroon muscles underneath.

After replacing the dirty and tattered leather armor, cleaning the wound, disinfecting it with strong alcohol, and applying ointment, then the old butler of the manor, Fei Lun, ran over——according to her impression, this unsmiling middle-aged butler Knowing a little is not advanced medical skills.After his inspection, he confirmed that there was no serious injury or life-threatening, and a group of people finally sent the injured man to this quiet house for rest and recuperation.

Today is the second day, but the man still has no signs of sobriety.

Miss Lina Barrows was suddenly worried again. She prayed silently in her heart. She wanted to run into the room to have a look, but her cousin, Chia Escude, appeared in the corridor leading to the room among.

Lina walked over, and then this pestering little cousin ran up to her and stopped her—a girl's first love and gossip have always been a pair of twin sisters. Regarding the topic derived from that man, Chia proposed One question after another:
"Where is he from? How tall is he? Is he handsome? Does he have a wife? What are his strengths? Is he as good at swordsmanship as Brother Makuro..."

The 16-year-old Miss Chia was no easier to deal with than those older noble ladies, and Lena Burrows even felt a burst of embarrassment and depression—the continuous questioning made the red-haired girl who once had the title of "little devil" very uncomfortable. Get angry when Miss Chia asks the question again;

"Cousin Lina, do you really plan to marry this smelly man in the future?"

Miss Twintails raised her head and asked again to her cousin mage who looked dignified.She didn't notice at all that the danger had come silently.

"Qia, it seems that someone is coming."

"There are very few outsiders here. Could it be Brother Makuro? Shouldn't he be staying in the City Lord's Mansion at this moment?"

Qi Ya obviously didn't know enough about the title of "little devil", she turned her head and looked around - a precise hand knife cut her neck moderately, and she fell down like a swan injured by an arrow Going down, she saw the seemingly gentle and virtuous cousin behind her, her pink lip line curled up in an arc of conspiracy.

"What a troublesome little girl!"

Lena Barros stepped over Chia who was lying on the floor, muttering.She forgot that her age was actually not much older than her cousin, although, in terms of their personalities, her cousin was at least more like a pure noble lady.

The door of the room was pushed open with a "squeak".

Lina finally saw the man she liked—the bandit leader lying on the bed with a layer of soft bedding under his body. Because of his back injury, he couldn't sleep in a normal position. He opened his mouth His hands and legs wanted to occupy the entire bed.This unrestrained sleeping position caused his saliva to drip down from time to time, making the entire pillow wet.

A lovely male creature—

Miss Lina moved a chair and sat at the head of the bed. She bent over and raised her chin with her hands to look at the sleeping bandit leader. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth - "Mr. Lecter" was accidentally injured and was struck by her expression. When Gomakuro sent it back, she was a little worried but also a little happy.

The worry is because of his injury, but the joy is because the two can get along for a while.Miss Lena Baros from Rajat City has never been so in love with any young man. She stared at the side face with sharp edges and shaggy beard, her eyes were full of rare tenderness.

……

In the past two days, Avron's de facto consul, Marculo Escude, has become extremely busy.The gold mine that appeared in the western hilly area, and the series of subsequent events caused by it, made him almost burnt out.

Some residents of the city and farmers in the nearby villages recklessly broke into the crypt—the huge benefits of gold ore made them forget the danger.If that "Mr. Lecter" hadn't appeared there by accident, these profit-hungry guys would probably have turned into ghosts under the bone spear in the cave.

If there is an accident where a large number of civilians die, he can't even imagine the disappointment in his father's eyes - the relationship between the leader and the lord is to some extent like a flock of sheep and a shepherd.The sheep provide fresh milk, wool and meat, while the shepherds are responsible for guarding the safety of the sheep.These are not only the responsibility of noble lords, but also the interests and reputation.

Markuro processed the documents at hand quickly and meticulously—the matter about the gold mine must be completed as soon as possible.In the "Elante Code", the minerals in the territory belong to the lord.Those greedy, ignorant and fearless civilians, merchants, and farmers will be punished as they should, and the mining of gold mines also needs to be dispatched to take care of them.

However, in the process of carrying out these tasks, Makuro suddenly had some doubts - he still remembered the scene in the cave: the corpses of the cavemen were all over the place, almost all of them were killed with a sword.Is that Mr. Karthus' staff really so powerful?

You know, every adult caveman is quite a [warrior] existence.

Also, as Karthus' staff, how could he run to that gold mine.

Wait, what about the exploding caveman corpse...

Markuro took out a piece of paper from the drawer, and wrote down several doubtful points earnestly.
