I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law

"The city lord has already issued a wanted order, and the search warrant is probably not far away."

John handed the food in his hand to Youlun's wife, his face full of sadness.

John's wife, however, did not seem to be worried at all. As the center of the conflict, she did not seem to worry about her own danger at all. Instead, she comforted John and said:

"Don't worry, Mr. John. I believe you and Mr. Knight will come up with a perfect solution."

John looked at the smile on the woman's face, and the anxiety in his heart was also diluted a lot. The sadness on his face disappeared, and he said:

"I will live up to my knight's oath."

The woman smiled and nodded, took the food from John's hand and began to flip through it.

“I didn’t buy any salt.”

"I was thinking about something on the street just now and forgot about it. I'm going out now."

"Remember to bring some desserts. Little Alice wants to eat."

"it is good."

John went out again.

It seemed like a waste of time, but John didn't care.

He and Beth discussed it for a whole day yesterday, but they still couldn't come to a conclusion. No matter what, neither of them could send the entire Youlan family away.

The two of them discussed all the solutions they could think of, but there was no solution to the problem.

Without new inspiration, no matter what you do, it seems like a waste of time.

Beth was sitting on the sofa in the living room, staring at the map. In this villa, the only person who could go out was John.

If Beth wants to go out, she must cover her face, and those who cover their faces are now in the lord's prison.

She also wanted to go out and relax, but she had no choice since there were lord's spies everywhere outside.

"Mr. Knight, have a cup of tea and take a rest."

Youlun's wife brought the teapot and poured Beth a cup of black tea.

Although Beth was upset, she had no reason to refuse a cup of tea that was presented with so much thoughtfulness.

Beth added two pieces of sugar into the black teacup and took a sip.

In fact, she doesn't know how to taste black tea at all, not even as good as Bennett.

Just by smelling the black tea, Bennett can tell where the tea is produced. After taking a sip, Bennett can even tell the year of the tea.

Aimee is even more amazing. She can tell which step is not done perfectly when brewing black tea. Her mother is a black tea master.

Beth couldn't taste it, but she could feel the emotion in the tea.

This cup of black tea may taste a little bitter, but the person who makes it feels quite relaxed, and his heart is full of hope.

Beth was somewhat moved. During the discussion the day before, Beth and John were almost in despair.

John always goes out to relax under the pretext of buying groceries.

For a self-disciplined God-given man, this was almost like the sun rising in the west, but under the tremendous pressure, John still felt a little overwhelmed.

Beth could bear it, she was ready to give up, the power of saints was to break conventional morality.

If necessary, she would choose to save little Alice and give up the Youlun couple.

"Mr. Knight, don't be in a hurry. There is an old saying that goes, 'When you reach the mountain, there will always be a way.'

Although I don’t know where this saying came from, I think it makes a lot of sense. This is how people get through desperate situations.”

Beth didn't like reading, and she had never heard this sentence.

Under the mask, Beth smiled bitterly. She really couldn't see the road ahead of the mountain. She only saw a dead end where the mother and the child would be left behind.

I wonder how the Youluns will react when they know Beth’s thoughts.

Beth did not express her thoughts. The human heart is very fragile. When facing the crisis of death, people may do anything.

"Thank you, I will remember this."

“Also, black tea is great.”

The woman smiled and got up to prepare today's lunch.

John came back and brought little Alice some dessert.

I have to say that the lords here are quite tolerant of these knights.

As a knight bestowed by God, it can be said that John did not do anything for his lord after surrendering.

But the lord continued to improve John's treatment. Even if John did nothing, the lord's mansion would still give him a large amount of gold coins every month.

Most of these gold coins were given by John to the poor, but some of them were saved. Desserts were a luxury and were quite expensive in this era without additives.

Some noble desserts are even priced as high as gold and gems.

Little Alice happily took the dessert. She was the least worried person here. The protection of the two knights gave her parents confidence, and their anxiety was not passed on to her.

Of course, this was also thanks to Beth. She often injected the power of saints into little Alice, which not only improved her physical condition, but also eliminated the fear in her emotions.

Little Alice's abnormality did not attract any attention. After all, she was still a child and was often more adaptable than adults when facing emotional problems, so no one suspected her.

Little Alice happily sat in Beth's arms, raised the brown paper bag in her hand, and said happily:

"Brother Knight, it's time for dessert."

Just one word, "knight brother", was enough to make Beth upset.

"Just eat it. Brother Knight doesn't like to eat this."

Little Alice was sitting in Beth's arms, sniffing Beth's scent, putting the dessert in her mouth, and said:

"Brother Knight smells sweeter than dessert."

Beth was helpless, this should be the result of the transformation of the power of the saints.

As Beth develops into a saint, she will naturally develop a power that makes people admire, submit to her, and even love her.

Of course, when facing children who don’t understand these things, they will also exude a flavor that children like. This is the saint’s instinctive reaction.

This is also the reason why Bennett is still obsessed with Beth even though he obviously likes older girls.

John was indeed a little puzzled, but he didn't think much about it, just a little confused.

Alice has said more than once that Beth has a scent on her body.

John was also confused. He couldn't smell any fragrance, but he always had a strange feeling about Beth.

It was as if the person in front of him was the one he must protect for his entire life. Sometimes, he would feel a throbbing in his heart in the knight's every move.

It was as if he was in love with Mr. Knight.

Whenever this feeling came over him, John couldn't help but shudder. He was really not a gay, and he didn't think he could accept being with a gay man with burns all over his body.

Also, why does Mr. Knight have a scent on him?

The breath of the magic dragon will not be extinguished easily. John has seen people who survived, and there was no intact skin on their bodies.

It would be good enough if the skin didn't smell bad, so how could it smell good? Is it barbecue?

And little Alice also said that Mr. Knight’s body was soft, covered with burn scars and healed lumps. How could it be soft?

John was a little confused, but he didn't think much about it. He trusted the knight in front of him.
