Dragon Family

Master Oscar thought that he had hit the other party's lifeblood. They had nothing to say, and they became more arrogant: "Young people can have dreams, but they shouldn't daydream and think wildly! Be down-to-earth and make this marriage straightforward. I can introduce you Going to work under Marshall, food and clothing will not be a problem."

"Crys Savasadi."

"what?"

Krys said slowly, "My name is Krys Savasadi."

"Catch them!" An angry roar came from the corridor on the second floor.

Linton and Niebuhr turned their heads and saw Mrs. Grantham rushing forward with a group of handymen, the leader being a middle-aged man.

"Oscar, are you okay?" The middle-aged man was Marshall, the mayor of Rip Town.The reason why Mrs. Grantham didn't rush up immediately was that she ran to get help from him.

Master Oscar cried from the room: "Too bad, my brother! I should marry a madman."

Audrey immediately said: "Then give up this marriage, so as not to damage your reputation."

Mrs. Grantham yelled: "Shut up, you idiot! There is no one in this world who loves you more than Master Oscar. What are you not satisfied with?!"

Audrey sneered and said, "My biological mother actually said that no one loves me more than an outsider. Those words are really chilling."

Standing at the door, Cress could see Mrs. Grantham's group in the corridor, and Audrey and Master Oscar in the room, "You still have a brother."

Mrs. Grantham gritted her teeth as soon as she heard about his addiction: "Putting away your cries about cats and mice! It's thanks to you that we've gotten to this point! The Grantham family's century-old legacy is in your hands After being destroyed once, you still have the face to stand here!"

Kles said: "I donate my property, what does it have to do with you?"

"I am your father's wife!"

"But not my mother."

It was the first time for Reginald and other holy knights to hear Kleis's eloquence, and they were not surprised.

Mrs. Grantham said: "Yes, I am not your mother, and I don't want to be your mother. But I am Audrey's mother, and her marriage is up to me."

"She is a child of the Grantham family, and I am the head of the Grantham family." Kress turned his head and looked at Marshall coldly, "Master Marshall, according to the law of Shaman Lear, who said Calculate?"

Kleis's performance today surprised Marshall. According to his long-term observation of people, he can see that none of the friends around Kleis are good. He replied very slickly: "There are always loopholes in the law, I think This matter should be resolved peacefully. Since we are a family, why not discuss it properly?"

Master Oscar exclaimed, "I can't sit down with a bunch of lunatics. Do you know what they just said? They say they're the Holy Knights, and this dwarf says he's Krys Sawadeeka."

Krys corrected again: "Krys Savasadi."

Marshall asked in surprise, "What did you say?"

Linton and Burnier turned, flashing their belts.The emblem on the forehead of the God of Light and the two golden swords were dazzling, dimming the surrounding light all of a sudden.

Looking at the belt, Marshall felt a little limp in his legs, and his ears were buzzing. Mrs. Grantham and Mr. Oscar's laughter seemed to come from another world.He worked hard for a long time before he stood up straight and said, "Is there anything else that can be proved?"

Kles said, "Twain knows."

Mrs. Grantham froze.She was standing beside Marshall, and she could see from his changing expression what he thought of these words, and she actually believed them somewhat.

Marshall said: "Brother Tang En passed away not long ago."

Kles said, "Find another priest."

No need to look for it.Of course, the only priest in the town would be invited to participate in such a big event as the marriage between Master Oscar and the Grantham family. Even if the God of Light Society is as powerful as before, it still has an unshakable position in Rip Town.

The newly appointed priest was quickly invited up.Without waiting for others to explain the situation, he saluted Linton enthusiastically: "Oh! Sir Hornby! It's an honor to see you again. I still remember that we were in..."

A long series of pleasantries explained all doubts.

The atmosphere in the corridor froze into ice.

Mrs. Grantham and Master Oscar couldn't see each other's faces, but their faces were surprisingly uniformly covered with shock and fear.

Linton waited good-naturedly for the priest to finish speaking, and then asked him very politely to keep quiet.

Sacrifice to do so immediately.

Cress glanced slowly from Master Oscar's face to Mrs. Grantham's and Marshall's, and said slowly, "Out of politeness, I think we should send the guests downstairs first."

The happy event started with beating gongs and drums, and the flags and drums died down halfway.The guests stayed with the intention of watching the fun, but they didn't see it. The conversation in the corridor on the second floor was intermittent, high and low, and they couldn't hear clearly. I only knew that Mrs. Grantham and Master Oscar went downstairs in despair, and they were also very worried about saying goodbye. look.A few relatives and friends who were usually close wanted to make a cliché, but they were dismissed coldly.

When the lobby was empty, Mrs. Grantham and Master Oscar realized that they were in a bleak situation.

Marshall had already changed his face, cheerfully chasing Kleis and others on the saddle, almost swinging a feather duster on his buttocks.Cress looked indifferent, and led Reginald and others to look for something to eat with a tray.But he didn't eat much, every time his fork picked up a food, it would be snatched by Tai Ya halfway.In the end, Kless simply inserted one piece for Taiya first, and then inserted another piece for himself.Taiya didn't make trouble anymore, and accepted Kleis's service with peace of mind.

Reginald thought it was too hard for the leader, so he took the initiative to give Taiya a piece.

Taiya rolled her eyes at him.

Mrs. Grantham and Master Oscar were left to dry out, their hearts tossed like fish, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say.In the end, it was Mrs. Grantham who walked up to Audrey, and said softly, "Daughter, we are going to make it through. Tell your brother quickly, let him return Master Oscar's one hundred gold coins first. "

Audrey blushed with embarrassment when she heard her talking about her family's debts in front of so many people, and secretly glanced at Reginald.Reginald, as absorbed in the food as everyone else, seems to be completely oblivious to the conversation here.She breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, "Let's talk about this later."

Mrs. Grantham looked at Master Oscar in embarrassment.

Master Oscar winked at Marshall, but Marshall didn't dare to show it.He thought for a while, walked up to Kles and said, "Everything that happened today was so sudden, I'm like a kid who has been dazzled by love, flailing my teeth and claws in front of the one I love, trying to show that I'm a man." The power and influence, but self-defeating to make people read a joke. Have pity on my ridiculous performance, I promise this will not happen again."

Kles said slowly: "One hundred gold coins..."

gold?Taiya glanced over.

Master Oscar shrugged, and said involuntarily: "Consider it as a congratulatory gift to Miss Audrey and Your Excellency Ernest. They are both talented and beautiful, and they are really a good match."

Reginald and others were amazed at his ability to adapt to the situation.

When he said this, Kress couldn't be more aggressive, nodded, "Nice to meet you."

Master Oscar's heart sank, and his face became radiant, "This is exactly what I want to say. As a devout believer of the light, I can see so many holy knights with my own eyes. My excitement is unprecedented and unparalleled!"

Kles said: "Driving a carriage in the dark is easy to overturn in a ditch."

Master Oscar's smile was frozen for three seconds, and he said goodbye tactfully.

After he left, Marshall immediately said that his coachman had very bad eyesight and easily fell into a ditch. Before leaving, Kress saw him off: "Father was taken care of during his lifetime."

A simple sentence made Marshall feel like he was sitting on pins and needles on the way back.

The priest saw that all the outsiders had left, so it was not easy to stay, but the head of the Holy Knights was very rare to see, fearing that they would break up and see each other indefinitely, so he hesitated on the spot.Fortunately, Kles said that he would go to church tomorrow, which made him leave with peace of mind.

With all the familiar people gone, Mrs. Grantham felt desolate and helpless.She held on to Audrey's hand tightly, as if holding on to the only support.

Audrey was in pain.How many times has she grabbed her hand like this, trying to gain strength from it, only to get scorn and insult in the end.But even so, she couldn't let go of her mother's hand at this time.

"Brother..." she said cautiously.

Kles raised his head from the dinner plate and said, "I will renegotiate your monthly living expenses."

Mrs Grantham said emphatically, "Master never mentioned you had another name."

"I picked it up myself." Chris said.

Mrs. Grantham pursed her lips, and suddenly the image of Cress as a child appeared in her mind. She was inexplicably panicked, but her mouth became more merciless, "Does the master know about such a big thing as changing his name?"

Kles said, "You can ask him in person."

Mrs. Grantham shuddered and shouted, "What are you talking about? What do you mean? What do you want to do to me?"

Chris said, "It's just a suggestion."

"I've seen it for a long time. You came back this time to take revenge on me. It's not enough to take away my property. You also want to kill me. You black-hearted devil, I tell you, even if I die , I will not let you go!"

Audrey stopped the hysterical Mrs. Grantham and tremblingly said, "Mom, what are you talking about. Brother doesn't mean that."

Mrs. Grantham raised her hand and gave her a slap: "Stop being hypocritical here! Before you speak, think about who is your mother! If you suck up to cheap brother, even your mother will be left aside, like An unfilial person like you will have retribution sooner or later."

This wasn't the first time Audrey heard such vicious words, but this time she felt extra ashamed.She didn't dare to look at other people's faces, turned around and went directly upstairs.

"Come down!" Mrs. Grantham wanted to reach out to grab her, but Kles blocked her way.

Chris asked, "What exactly do you want?"

"What do you want?" she yelled frantically, "I want you dead."

"This is hard to do. However, I can give you a rich family property." Kress said slowly.

Mrs. Grantham looked at him suspiciously: "What conspiracy do you have?"

"You are father's wife, and I want to take good care of you." There was no trace of conspiracy on Krys' face.

Mrs. Grantham knew that the matter would never be so simple, but without any more evidence, she could only follow the butler upstairs full of doubts.

Although Ernest didn't know Kleis' past, he guessed something from the conversation just now, and ran over: "Captain, is there anything I can help you with?"

Kles smiled slightly and said, "Housework." His eyes swept across the lobby, but he didn't see Reginald's figure, and the corners of his mouth were raised higher, "Ernest."

"Ok?"

"My sister is crying."

"……Um."

"Aren't you going to comfort him?" Kress looked at him with incomparably upright eyes.

Ernest was in a dilemma.As a holy knight, he certainly didn't want to let such a beautiful, strong and brave girl have no shoulders to rely on when she cried silently, but the problem was that not long ago he saw a man who had just fallen in love with his shoulders and couldn't wait to go up. Unfortunately, that man is also his good friend.

"I..." He licked his lips and said, "I'm not full yet."

Chris looked at him suspiciously.

Ernest sighed: "Reguinold is a very good candidate."

"He didn't seem to think so before."

"..."

Linton suddenly approached with a smile: "Commander, do you have any other sisters?"

Kress asked with a smile: "Do you mean the ones that look like me or the ones that don't look like me?"

"..." Linton responded quickly, "Like Audrey."

Kress said, "She's upstairs."

Linton sighed, hating himself for not jumping in before Reginald.

"In your eyes, does Audrey look like me or not?" Kress didn't intend to let him go.

Linton said: "Audrey is so strong, so brave, and so upright, she couldn't be more like the captain!"

Kress: "..." He is indeed the most cunning of the Holy Knights.

Ernest, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped when he heard the words: "Then what do you think of the leader himself?"

Linton: "..." The first trick of the Holy Knights got stuck.

An extra arm suddenly appeared on Kleis' neck, and Taiya stared at Linton displeasedly: "He belongs to Ben Shuailong!"

Linton and Ernest frowned and walked away dejectedly after seeing Kleis give them a calm look.

Taiya lowered his head, and the cool dragon's breath sprayed his ears: "Why are you flirting with them?!"

Kles handed him the silver plate in his hand, "Do you like it?" From the very beginning, he found that its eyes were staring at the silverware.

……

Taiya went to play with the silverware.

The night was uneventful.

That night, Mrs. Grantham's nerves returned to normal for some reason, and she ran to apologize to Audrey.But Audrey was completely chilled by her fluctuating attitude, and responded perfunctorily.

Mrs. Grantham was full of displeasure, but she didn't show it. She shut herself in her room and didn't show up until breakfast the next day.

Audrey went downstairs during breakfast, her eyes were swollen like walnuts, but she was in a good mood, especially when she looked at Reginold.Reginald helped her open the chair in front of Krys when she was seated.

Audrey was a little shy, but she didn't refuse.

Kress watched their interaction without saying a word.He was willing to hand over his sister to Reginald, but yesterday he was slightly dissatisfied with Reginald for not immediately agreeing to his request, and now he is very satisfied with the result.

McGee and Denver were the last to come downstairs.Denver was in good spirits, McKee was sluggish, and had no appetite for food.

Kress suddenly said to McGee: "Go back and have a rest after dinner."

McKee felt a little inexplicably guilty looking at his eyes that seemed to know everything.

After the meal, Kress asked the housekeeper to prepare the carriage and went to the branch of the God of Light in Rip Town.The new priest made preparations for the reception early in the morning, including breakfast.Clays put away all the formalities and got straight to the point: "Why didn't the gold coins to Grantham's family be paid on time?"

The new priest knew that he probably wanted to ask this question, and he had already thought about the answer: "It's not that I deliberately withheld it, but the previous priest handed over the property donated by the Grantham family to the God of Light in the city of Zul to fight it." reason."

"Why?" The relationship between Zul City and Rip Town is not superior or inferior.

The new priest is a member of the Sophiro faction, and his predecessor is a member of the Feida faction. When he caught the opportunity, he immediately fell into trouble: "He has colluded with the nobles of Shamanlier and plans to use this money as an investment to support their conquest Twin Islands, seek benefits." He paused, and added: "I was transferred here for this reason. It's a pity that I was a step late."

Kles said: "Who are the nobles of Shamanliel you are talking about?"

"The Humphreys."

"..." It's really not that enemies don't get together.At the beginning, Humphrey34 tried everything possible to seize the property of the Grantham family, but he interfered and destroyed it. Unexpectedly, the money still fell into their hands in the end.

Reginald said: "You mean that he embezzled the property donated to the God of Light for private use?"

The new priest said: "He used the name of sponsorship."

Chris nodded, "I see."

Linton asked for the account books of the branch, and the new priest readily gave them.After Linton checked the account, he went to collect information from various places, and reported to Kles after confirming that everything was true.

"What do you think?" Chris asked.

Linton said: "Now is not a good time to intervene in Shamanlier's affairs." Emperor Shamanlier was dying, and domestic infighting was raging. At this time, he was too close to them, and he could easily be labeled as an accomplice .

Kress nodded.The God of Light has always followed the noble and glamorous route, and even if it cooperates, it only cooperates with national leaders, such as Kasdaron II of the Banding Empire-although it was later verified that this investment was wrong, it was also Kasdaron II. Shi is too incompetent and Shiro is too smart.

Linton got the support and geared up: "Let's go on the road to impeach him immediately."

Kleiss said: "Do the research first."

Reginald knew his concerns.Shamanlier has a lot of internal troubles, so why not the Illuminati Society.Shaman Lear thought that the God of Light would support a certain force in their country. It was not a big deal, and it was a headache for the Holy Knights to think that the attitude of the Holy Knights towards the priests of the two gods was different.

However, he is a holy knight, and his long-term education destined him not to be deterred even if he thought of these things.

Clays quickly rushed from Rip Town to Zul City. At this time, Zul City was bustling, ten times more lively than when Kles came last time. The city was full of people, magicians, knights, merchants, and entertainers. ...everything.

Linton was speechless: "I thought we were in Bot City." Bot City is the capital of Shamanlier.

Kles said: "Humphrey has information on the Twin Islands, and it is easier for them to attack the Twin Islands than others."

Linton said, "What is the Twin Islands like?"

Chris couldn't answer.He passed by the twin islands in a hurry, only knowing that there was a palace there, the guards were lax, and the owner of the island was killed by him... But such twin islands are able to block Shamanlier's attack, which is really impressive.

Reginald said: "Should we go to the branch first or go to Humphrey's house first?"

"No, let's collect information first." Kress said.Whether you go to the branch of the Illuminati Society or Humphrey's house, you will start to scare the enemy, and you must get the evidence first before they take any action.

They split up.Kress is in a group with Taiya and Linton.Taiya didn't like Linton's candle very much, but Kleis agreed, and its protest was invalid.

Linton said, "Let's go to the Knights Guild for a walk."

Compared with the magic guild that has a constant stream of space magic circles, the knight guild is much more depressed.However, they also have their way of survival. As long as they have the Knight Medal issued by the Knights Guild, the knights can get many conveniences from the Knights Guild, such as discounted housing, easy-to-carry food, valuable news, and so on.

Cress and the others had received ordinary knight medals before entering the Holy Knights, and they can still be used now.Linton's one is seventh-order, of course, his current achievements have surpassed it.

"What do you want?" the receptionist of the Knights Guild asked with a smile.

Linton said, "I'm looking for a job that pays fast."

The receptionist smiled and said, "People all over the world are looking for it."

"I'm a seventh-rank knight." He waved the knight medal.

"Okay, ten silver coins."

Linton gave him the money.

The receptionist said: "The Humphrey family is recruiting knights to attack the Twin Islands. The seventh-level knights will receive one silver coin per day before departure, and one gold coin per day after arriving at the Twin Islands. Battle merit will be calculated separately."
