Black Knight From Blue Star

Chapter 8 History books can answer many questions

"That's right. Only you nobles and wealthy merchants are qualified to call yourself civilized people. The rest are either barbarians or cheap people."

 Handy and Edward both have their own views on the term "civilized world".

Edward turned to look at his brothers who had turned into pieces of flesh, laughed a few times, and said, "You want to know who instigated me?"

Hardy looked down at the other person, smiling and saying nothing.

"Your eyes and expression make me feel sick, full of the stench of superiority." Edward said angrily: "The little Hardy before was more pleasing to the eye and more comfortable."

Hadi finally couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Isn't it because of you that I became like this?"

 He was able to obtain this body thanks to the "chronic collapse" of the original owner's soul.

 The main reason is that Karina and Ryan officially became a couple, and the secondary reason is the disappearance of their father.

 Under the double blow, the original body, which was not strong in the first place, turned into a weakening idiot, and then the current Hardy woke up in his body.

Edward was stunned for a moment, and then his resentment and viciousness disappeared in an instant, and his eyes became confused: "It's also...the little Hardy from before, but he can say hello to us cheap bones."

 “Then, can you tell me who instructed you?”

"have no idea!"

　　Hardy:? ? ?

Looking at Hardy who looked confused, Edward sighed: "We were drinking in a tavern in Chelan City, and someone came to our door and negotiated this business with us anonymously."

 “Since it is a business, there must be transaction content, what is it?”

“They were responsible for the external attack, and we were responsible for the internal support. After catching Old Hardy, they were responsible for interrogating him. Although Old Hardy cried like a girl, he didn’t say anything.”

"We will come back here to arrest you later. It seems that it is not convenient for them to enter the river territory."

 Hardy's eyes were as calm as ever: "What do they need?"

Edward continued: "They said they would give us all the possessions of the Hardy family, and all they wanted was a pure black saddle."

Hardy raised his eyebrows subconsciously.

Edward saw it. His face was already pale due to too much color loss, but when he saw Hardy's expression changing, he became excited, blushed on his face, and asked loudly: "Saddle, what is that?" What is this huge wealth worth more than hundreds or thousands of gold coins? Tell me so that I can die with peace of mind.”

What is 　　?

A true heirloom of the Hardy family, good things that only the current Hardy can successfully integrate over the generations.

 Become a stepping stone for the strong.

Is the other party really here for this thing?

 Actually, Hardy had also suspected this before.

Looking at Edward's eager and somewhat crazy eyes for knowledge, Hardy drew out his long sword and swiped downwards hard.

 The big head rolled to the side, and the sound of blood spurting out from the neck was very similar to the water gun used by children in summer.

 Edward's shocked expression froze.

Hardy slowly turned his head and looked at the blacksmith who was huddled in the corner.

 He walked over.

Blacksmith Sam shrank into a ball. Hearing the footsteps, he didn't dare to look at Hardy. He shrank back desperately, crying and shouting: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, I'm sorry, don't kill me, little Hardy, it's me." It’s wrong, it’s my fault, please.”

"Don't get involved in the big shot's arena in your next life. You are too weak. No matter in terms of strength or psychology, you will break into pieces at the slightest touch." Hardy waved his sword calmly: "Sorry, I can't stay. any hidden dangers.”

 Another head fell to the ground.

Hardy looked at the single-family house not far away, where the lights had been extinguished.

 He can easily get in if he wants to.

They are just women and children. They have no ability to resist in front of professionals. He stood there for a while and finally left.

 Back outside the manor, they saw Jack and the red-haired maid waiting anxiously, walking back and forth.

 After seeing Hadi's figure, they all looked happy and trotted over at the same time.

 Back home, Lillian took a shower, and then put on soft and comfortable pajamas. Hardy slept on the gorgeous big bed.

 Edward’s words before his death kept echoing in his mind.

The other party wants a black saddle... It stands to reason that except for the Hardy family and his son, no one else knows about this thing.

 But it is not ruled out that the ‘father’ also told this matter to people he considered very close to him.

Old Hardy’s interpersonal network was not complicated. After careful investigation, a person who seemed very suspicious surfaced.

 The younger brother of Old Hardy and the uncle of Little Hardy.

 Being a ‘Thomas Hardy’ for ordinary freemen in the Moselle Territory.

Just thinking about it more carefully, it seems impossible.

'Father' was in trouble in Chelan County, but Thomas Hardy was in Moserly County, and to be honest, Thomas Hardy did not have enough financial resources to hire powerful mercenaries and professional killers to deal with him. His own brother.

 He is just an ordinary person, far from the economic level of his father.

 After excluding the uncle, there are no candidates worth considering.

 Who else knows that the Hardy family has black saddles?

 After thinking about it, Hadi couldn't sleep, so he went to his father's bedroom.

Ever since his father's death, this place has been 'sealed'. Without Hadi's order, the maids did not dare to go in to clean and organize things.

 Pushing open the door, a slight musty smell hit my face.

Hardy walked around inside and found nothing of special intelligence value after checking.

Then he flipped through the bookshelf. His father’s hobby was reading history.

However, the historical records of France are not very good, they are intermittent, and are mixed with many myths and legends, which are both true and false, and it is extremely difficult to distinguish.

 In comparison, the history of the elves is much more reliable.

 They will even record the palace scandals of the elven royal family.

　　It is to focus on a hard core.

It’s a pity that the historical books of the elves are well collected, and it is difficult for humans to take a look at them. It is a pity... Wait!

history?

　　It seemed like a flash of lightning flashed across Hardy's forehead, and he suddenly realized something.

After entering his study, he immediately entered the secret room through the secret passage and found several parchment books with a sense of age.

 Opening the oldest book, he quickly found a record.

'In the year 523 of the Holy Light Calendar, Zack Hardy accidentally rescued Prince XXXX and was gifted a Nightmare Saddle. Unfortunately, the soul's qualifications were too poor to be activated. I hope that among the future descendants, there will be outstanding ones who can complete the saddle. Chris's wish is to transform our Hardy family into a family of professionals. ’

That Prince XXXX was recorded because it was nearly a hundred years old. It was too old and caused the ink to be blurred, thus losing some information.

But even so, it is still a great gain.

In addition to the Hardy family, those who knew about the existence of the Nightmare Saddle also had...the royal family.
