Eagle Byzantium

Chapter 18 Dog

But when Cabe Amiya collided with Gawain, she quickly snatched the phosphorescent sword from his belt buckle. Then, when several servants rushed over to deal with the situation, "No!" With Gawain's shout, Cabe Amiya gritted her teeth and howled, and swung the sword in her hand backhand, cutting off the necks of two servants who approached.

Then, the whole courtyard was filled with the sound of ghosts crying, and dark flames rose and danced. The generals, the grand dukes, and the nobles lost their calm demeanor just now. They saw that the people killed by the sword had such colorful flames in their orifices. They were so scared that their souls flew away. Some of them rushed behind the stone pillars of the corridor, some climbed up the city wall, and some fell directly to the ground and trembled.

"Stop, bastard!" Diogenes danced with the lasso and rushed up with big strides.

"Stop!" Although Gawain's hands were tied, he could not lose the magical sword. Only he was the real master. He said this in pure Greek. This ability came from the genes of several slaves who had just been killed by Cabe Amia. He and Peter quickly rushed out with Cabe Amia.

As a result, most people in Caesar's mansion fled in all directions or lay down and dared not move, as if they had seen the devil appear. Only these four people chased each other and went straight to the gate. Cabe Amia held the sword in her hand, kept looking back, and ran swiftly. She was familiar with the way she came. When Gawain and Peter caught up to the gate steps, they saw that the snobbish gate official had turned into a corpse emitting residual fire, lying there.

"Over there!" Gawain's ability to absorb Zahas' falcon last time had not completely dissipated. He quickly saw the open ground in the depression west of the official residence, where many merchants and citizens gathered for the market day. Cabe Amiya, barefoot and holding a sword, was running wildly, shuttling between colorful tents and trucks. Gawain also chased after her fiercely. Although Peter was very old, his skills were no less than those of young people, thanks to his years of ascetic life.

Her breath was exhausted, and the faces in front of her passed by quickly. Cabe Amiya felt that she was getting more and more unable to hold on. After all, she was a woman, and she was holding a sword that was very heavy for her, and it was a cursed sword. She had seen with her own eyes how Gawain used this sword to easily slaughter Norman knights like a devil, so she soon became tired and panicked. She realized that the owner of this magical sword in her hand was only Gawain, not her.

She must use quick wits to win this game. After all, her goal is not to seize the Phosphorus Sword, but just to escape!

"Ah!" When Gawain heard the shout and saw Cabe Amiya in front of him stop and stab the sword into the unfortunate black dog watching on the roadside, he also shouted in grief and anger to stop it. Gawain remembered what Ajeh said, then the sword will soon...

In front of the butcher's shop, Cabe Amiya stood there panting with the sword on her shoulder, her pink feet were bleeding, and the murdered dog was still making a low wail, and small blue flames kept coming out of its mouth. The butcher was lying behind the chopping board, frightened out of his wits - and Gawain and Peter raised their hands, both standing about half an arrow away from Cabe Amiya, also panting, "Hand over the sword, quickly."

Cabe Amiya stepped back, then grabbed a piece of meat on the chopping board, and "whoosh" threw it over Gawain's head, flying straight to Diogenes' feet.

Then the guard saw a big shadow rushing over like the wind, dragging Peter and picking up the piece of meat under his feet. It was Gawain. The situation was just like a dog chasing a bone, which made him unbelievable!

"Just in time." The guard shouted angrily, and controlled Gawain directly with chains, allowing him to struggle. Then the guard saw that the hermit was there and did not abandon his companions to escape. Thinking that this couple should not be bad people, he softened his heart and loosened Gawain's chain, but that Cabe Amiya disappeared without a trace - Peter said that she threw down the sword and turned into a monastery with high walls, and then disappeared. It is not clear whether she escaped into the monastery or took a detour to hide.

So the guard took two people and stood in front of the monastery that Peter mentioned. After a long time, an old man with white hair, a very long beard, and a white robe embroidered with a black cross came out, "Imperial soldiers are not welcome here, but a place for people who are close to the Lord to meditate."

"Sorry, sorry." It seems that the status of the guard is not as good as that of a deacon in a monastery. Diogenes hurriedly bowed and explained what happened just now. It should be known that many monasteries in the Byzantine Roman Empire are not simple roles. Not only do they have extensive real estate, but they also have imperial giants acting as "secular protectors", and many even have golden edicts issued by the emperor himself, obtaining unlimited privileges.

"Are you kidding? Your Excellency the Guard." The old man said majestically and angrily, "We are the most famous holy monastery in Gallipoli. Not to mention the local nobles, even the people in the imperial city often come to pay homage, but we do our best to abide by the precepts. Not to mention women, even female animals, female cats and female dogs are strictly prohibited from stepping into the fence of the monastery!"

Diogenes was rebuked and reprimanded, but he could only obey and retreat involuntarily. The old man snorted twice and turned around to close the door.

Only the setting sun and the tall and old courtyard wall were left in front of them.

In fact, Gawain obviously smelled that Cabe Amiya was hiding in the monastery.

For no other reason, it was because the woman had just given him the gift of "dog". Animals lack human spirituality, so their genes only lasted for a short time in Gawain's body, but the feeling was still very strong at this time - Gawain smelled the smell and breath of Cabe Amiya, just behind this courtyard wall!

But Gawain was very alert to control himself and didn't say anything to the guard, because he couldn't be sure whether Cabe Amiya was protected by the monastery or had found a way to climb in, but whether it was the former or the latter, it would cause shocking chaos. Besides, he and Cabeamia had no great grudge, and there was no need or obligation to report these to the warden. Besides, if you said, "My nose is like a dog's, I can be sure that the female prisoner is here," not only would no normal person believe it, but he would probably be beaten to death immediately - anyway, the sword was back.

The warden was very discouraged. He took the two men, hung the devil's sword on Gawain's waist again, and crossed the market again, and came to Caesar's mansion, but found that there was a wooden fence in front of the gate, and the Isaurian robe guards stood there, holding swords and axes, murderous.

"Excuse me, has Caesar confirmed Bohemond's identity?" Seeing the Coptic deacon, the warden asked cautiously.
