Knight with Wand

Holding his sword, Leon leaned against the wall of the corridor and stood guard in front of the open door of the lord's room.

He glanced at the young nobleman who was still sleeping on the floor.

According to Knight Marcelo, he seemed to be the child of Baron Anquila, the second son of a noble who was sent to the Farolis family to serve as a knight's squire for many years.

This man had been put back in clothes and pants by Leon, but it seemed that the effect of the drug had not yet worn off, and he was still sleeping soundly without knowing anything.

Looking at the other side, there were two thieves dressed as castle servants on the ground.

The bodies of the two thieves, one tall and one short, were strangely hard, perhaps because of the effect of the poison, and they were completely hopeless.

In a hurry before, there was no other way, so Leon asked Marcelo to find all the wine and clean water that could be found in the lord's room and poured them into the mouths of the two thieves.

Then he pressed and turned the body upside down, and Leon even endured the nausea and reached out to grab the throats of the two guys to try to induce vomiting.

However, all attempts were in vain.

The poison that the two of them had hidden in their mouths beforehand was so strong that it could not be saved at all.

Leon slightly regretted not going with Corvis on this trip, otherwise his little wizard might have been there, and there might be some way.

But how could he have predicted that he would encounter such an emergency on this trip.

Who would have thought that in the Baron's castle, which was so tightly guarded, a traitor who was plotting against the mistress of the Thorn Flower Family would have sneaked into it.

If Olivia had not been targeted by one of the thieves who were looking for death, and one of them had been subdued in the middle of the night, and the conspiracy against the lord's wife had not been accidentally discovered, they would have succeeded.

Fortunately, Lady Adelina was saved after all.

Leon was also glad that the three of them did not stop for a moment and arrived in time.

He had just glanced unintentionally, although he did not see it clearly.

Well. Leon glanced at the lord's room with a guilty conscience.

Well, he admitted in his heart that at the first glance, his eyes were indeed uncontrollable instincts. He still caught a little bit of the scene that an honest and decent person like him should not see.

But this can be confirmed. Although Lady Adelina's dress was stripped and torn, judging from her posture, she should not have been really humiliated.

Fortunately, he and his companions did not delay a single bit.

Not only did they save the life of Lady Fengjun, but they also basically saved the face of Lord Eliver.

Of course, Leon firmly remembered the words that Marcelo repeatedly told him and Olivia when he left.

In order to avoid trouble and to ensure that there would be no unspeakable cracks in the relationship between the Lord Fengjun and his wife in the future, they would make some harmless time difference modifications in the timing of rescuing Lady in future reports.

Anyway, the two thieves were dead now, and no one knew that Lady Fengjun and the young man Anguila were stripped naked when the three of them entered the house.

It's better not to make Baron Eliver uncomfortable with this kind of thing.

If the rumor spreads, Lady Fengjun and the young man Anguila, the two poor parties, may not be able to clear themselves even if they jump into the Rushina River.

Hearing footsteps approaching from the room, Leon turned his head and looked at Olivia who had finally finished her work and walked out.

He was finally able to cast his gaze on the bed far away and look directly at the still sleeping Lady Adelina, who was now dressed in a new dress by Olivia.

Leon and Marcelo, two grown men, naturally had to avoid seeing the naked body of the Lady of the Lord, but fortunately there was a young girl beside them.

"Thank you for your hard work, Olivia. After tonight, you will be the great contributor of the Thorn Flower Family." Leon smiled and praised the girl.

He was not lying, not only because of Olivia's discovery of the conspiracy.

It was also because of the girl's presence, who could use her weak and tender voice to lure the thief in the house to the door.

If it were just him and Marcelo, two grown men, whether they spoke to alarm the people in the room or broke into the room directly, it would be difficult to avoid making the lady a hostage in their hands.

The worst thing is that, although the purpose of the two thieves is still unknown, they are like dead soldiers who would rather commit suicide by taking poison than stand trial. If the plan fails, they will definitely kill Adelina without a doubt.

They won't even give her a chance to negotiate.

Thinking about it now, Leon is scared.

If there is only one mistake, the ending of Lady Adelina will be completely different now. He can be considered to have achieved a relatively perfect result.

Olivia walked to Leon, leaned against the wall with her hands behind her back, stared at him and blinked: "Hehe~ I'm glad I can help you."

The girl then looked at the other end of the corridor and asked Leon: "Where is Lord Marcelo?"

"He went outside to gather knights and soldiers to block the castle. By the way, he went to see if the guy who broke into your room is still alive and whether he committed suicide like the two thieves."

As Leon said, he couldn't help but get angry when he thought of that bastard. He just hoped that guy would not die so easily.

Especially after seeing what happened to Lady Adelina, he now wants to cut that guy into pieces.

Although the other party had no chance of success, Leon was still angry.

It was like being called "Aminos". Even if the person who called you "Aminos" could never be "Aminos", you would still be angry because of the other party's verbal insult.

He lowered his head and sighed.

Leon tried to suppress his annoyance in front of the girl, not wanting his bad mood to affect Olivia.

However, when he lowered his eyes and saw the girl's bare feet on the corridor floor, his emotions were replaced by involuntary concern.

The three of them were in such a hurry that they didn't have time to put on shoes. They all ran barefoot.

"You didn't get hurt?" Leon looked up and asked her. He remembered that the girl kicked the tower door with her feet. If she got stabbed by a wooden thorn, he would be heartbroken.

Olivia smiled and shook her head: "No, I ran around barefoot in the village when I was a child. How could I get hurt when the floor in the castle is so flat?"

Leon seemed worried, so he put his sword aside, squatted in front of the girl, and waved his hands: "Lift it up and let me see it."

He looked at the girl with a serious face and tried: "Is it okay?"

Olivia was stunned for a moment, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so she raised her right leg obediently and waved the sole of her foot towards Leon.

The girl's cute toes swayed back and forth flexibly: "Look~ It's okay, don't worry, I'm always tough!"

Leon lowered his head and looked at her, but didn't answer.

He stretched out his hand, naturally held the girl's white and delicate feet, and then stroked the soles of her feet, as if he accidentally began to help Olivia wipe the dust on her soles.

The boy looked serious as if he was wiping a work of art.

Olivia blushed a little because of the unexpected itchy touch.

But the girl didn't want to pull her feet back from the other person's hands in a stiff manner.

For a while, she had to endure this strange and strange sense of shame and let Leon's hands scratch her feet.

In Leon's heart, a smug smile of success came to his mind.

Hey~ I touched it~

The plan worked!

He couldn't let go of pinching the girl's jade feet, and Leon couldn't help but defend his dirty hands in his heart.

What? It's not illegal to secretly touch your lover's feet!

After a light cough, Leon didn't dare to go too far. He wiped the dust and residue under the girl's feet, and he still put down the "treasure" in his hand.

Turning his head to look at the lord's room, he found several pairs of indoor slippers by the bed in the light of the candlelight that was relit in the room.

He immediately walked into the room and took out a pair without caring.

"Leon! These are the shoes of the lord's wife!"

Olivia looked at Leon pretending to put them on for her, and she couldn't help but shrink back in panic, hiding her feet.

Although the girl already knew that her life was special, she had been a commoner for more than ten years, and she still instinctively cared about the private belongings of the nobles.

"Alas, you are not going to wear them home. You saved the lady's life and innocence. You just borrowed a pair of shoes to temporarily pad your feet. Lady Adelina is a very good person. If she wakes up, she won't feel bad even if she gives you a pair of carriage shoes." Leon comforted her and grabbed the girl's feet and put them on her.

Even though he knew that Olivia's feet were not so easy to get hurt, he didn't want to see the girl's feet being messed up by the floor.

While comforting the girl who was always staring at the noble's shoes and tiptoeing anxiously, Leon continued to wait for Knight Marcelo to bring people back.

About ten minutes later, he finally saw Marcelo and Balf, who came to the corridor with several knights who also attended the dinner.

"Sir Leon!"

Knight Balf ran over nervously: "How is the lady?"

"The lady is fine, she is sleeping inside, the window is open, and she will wake up soon." Leon replied.

After speaking, Leon looked at Knight Marcelo: "Is the guy whose leg I broke dead?"

"No, he is still alive. He was still howling when I went there." Marcelo shook his head and said viciously: "I took him to the dungeon. Let someone stop the bleeding first, and then let the interrogation master dig out everything that the bastard knows!"
