Dragon Family

Chapter 9 The Wanderer Returns

Cress went downstairs, and Pierce came to meet him.

"Are you looking for me?" Chris looked at him expectantly.

Holding the hilt of the sword with one hand, Pierce looked up at the starry sky and said, "I heard that you are the heir of the Grantham family?"

"Yes, no. Well, the matter is not yet settled."

"Do you need to hire another bodyguard?" Pierce asked.

Chris opened his mouth.

"Only ten gold coins." For a tenth-rank knight, this is indeed a very favorable price.

Kles fumbled through his pockets, and found one gold coin and three silver coins in total, "Sorry, I only have so many. You can use them, and you don't have to be my bodyguard."

Pierce grabbed the money in his hand, thought for a while, and returned a silver coin to him, "Collect this much first. When do you plan to leave?"

"Tomorrow." Kles said, "I already have two knights protecting me. Can you protect Mrs. Grantham and Audrey?"

"You two go away separately?"

"No, take the carriage separately."

"Whatever." As long as the distance is not too far, we can protect together.

When Kress returned to the room, he didn't see McGee, and was about to go out to look for it, when he saw McGee walking up from downstairs with a baby bottle he didn't know where he got in his hand.

Seeing Kress come back, McGee was in a good mood, "Hi."

"I never knew you needed to breastfeed."

"..." McGee said, "As a poor bastard who has been locked in a box without seeing the sun for a long time, I need to increase nutrition properly."

"The bottle was taken from the dark box?"

"Kitchen. Strictly speaking, it's like a box. They locked the doors and windows, and luckily it was me...don't make such a face. You broke my leg remember? I didn't give you either Look at this face."

Chris said, "You dare not."

McGee: "..." How can someone be hated so righteously.

"Pierce is coming with us tomorrow."

"The three knights who will be all-powerful in the future gather for the first time. It's so exciting." McGee looked forward to the future with enthusiasm.

Kress said, "One of them slept in a box."

"...will he find out?"

"Yes." Chris replied without hesitation.Even if it is locked in a box, with Pierce's perception and hearing ability, he will definitely be able to discover the mystery of the box.

McGee said: "Have you thought about how to explain it? It can't be said that it was bought at the vegetable market for dinner, right?"

"There's only one way to get out of his way."

"any solution?"

"dead."

"..."

Mrs. Grantham got up early in the morning, and after a hasty meeting with Master Humphrey, she urged Audrey and the others to pack their luggage.When everything is ready, it is already after breakfast.

Mrs. Grantham's face was radiant, and she was completely different from her previous state of distress.

She secretly blessed Audrey. "Your marriage is a sure thing. Just get ready to be Mrs. Humphrey. Be as happy as you can, and I won't stop you."

Audrey said: "I can't laugh at all, Mom, my heart is about to die of sadness."

Mrs. Grantham glanced at her face, and carried her luggage into the carriage without hearing a word.

Pierce went to the appointment as promised.

Mrs. Grantham was suspicious when she heard that Kleist specially hired bodyguards for herself and Audrey.She didn't suspect that Kleis had the intention of harming him, but she was afraid that Pierce's unknown origin might be bewitching her "simple" stepson who was almost stupid with some rhetoric.

When Humphrey34 came to see him off, he inevitably pulled Audrey and said some affectionate words.

Under the intimidation of her mother's eyes, Audrey patiently perfunctory.

Pierce was a little surprised when he saw Kless's box, "It seems that the property I want to protect is not a small sum."

"It's just ordinary clothes." Kress put the box into the next carriage.

Everything was ready, and under Humphrey 34's "reluctant" eyes, the two cars drove out of Humphrey's house one after the other and set off on their way home.

The same road, the time it takes to come seems to be cut in half.The carriage quickly stopped at the entrance of the Magic Guild, and a group of people walked into the magic circle with their luggage, and returned to Rip Town in the blink of an eye.

Breathing the familiar air, Mrs. Grantham and Audrey breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.Although Mrs. Grantham remained excited and excited during Humphrey's trip, she was still sweating secretly. Fortunately, everything was as she expected.

Seeing them coming back, the magic apprentice ran over happily, "Mrs. Grantham, I can tell from your complexion that this trip went well! This is great, we are all waiting for you to tell us about the city of Zuul Mrs. Thomson is still nagging that if you don't come again, she will take her daughter to the city of Zur to join you."

"You have such a quick mouth, you can't hide secrets at all." Mrs. Grantham scolded, and couldn't help but feel proud.The tip of that silver coin was not wronged.She just wants to let those who want to see her jokes know that her relationship with Humphrey has not changed with the departure of the master!Her daughter will bear an old and noble name, unmatched by any woman in this town.

The faint sense of superiority made her see Kleiss who had done all this very pleasing to the eye, and he smiled all the way, and he still did the same when he returned home.

But what happened next completely ruined her good mood. It should be said that it was terrible!

Jeff and Kim, who had a bad time at Lord Grantham's funeral, came to the door as soon as they heard that they were back.Along with them, there was also a priest from the Ruipu Town branch of the Society of the Light Gods—the inconspicuous second-level priests in the Society of the Light Gods were very important figures in this small town where the third-level knights could show off their might.

Before Mrs. Grantham could relax her mind when she got home, she collapsed to the extreme again.She hurriedly put on the coat she had taken off, and called Audrey and Cress to go downstairs.

Priest Tang En stood leisurely in the living room in a loose silver silk white robe, admiring the murals.Jeff and Kim sat on the sofa, their legs crossed, and they looked arrogant.

Mrs Grantham's uneasiness grew further.She walked lightly to the back of Tang En, for fear that the rough footsteps would disturb his elegance. "Thank you for the grace of the Goddess of Light, to be able to welcome you to our house."

Tang En came back to his senses and smiled slightly.

Kleis had seen this kind of smile a lot, and every priest of the Society of Light came with a grin. The representative figure was Sophie Luo, one of the two priests.No matter how bad Sophie Ro was in his mood, in front of the Pope, he could always smile like a loyal dog who had enough to eat and drink without any worries.

"Looking at Master Grantham's collection for a long time, I have never had the opportunity to ask for advice. Unfortunately, I will never have the opportunity again in the future." Tang En looked sad, "He is such a good person, but he left in such a hurry, it is heartbreaking."

Mrs. Grantham's hairs stood on end.

Since Kerry came back, she has been in a good situation. She dismissed Jeff and Kim, and reunited with Humphrey. Everything went well, but she forgot the biggest hidden danger - when Master Grantham was alive, Tang En sent several times to ask for bribes hints were ignored.Later, Tang En tried his best to find trouble, but was blocked by Master Grantham, Mayor Marshall, and Magic Guild branch leader Gavin, and the hatred became deeper and deeper.Now that there is no one in the Grantham family, it is a good time for the other party to take advantage of the situation and fight back.

"Thank you for your concern. The master left ruthlessly, and we are the only orphans and widows left at home. We are helpless and need the protection of the goddess' glory! Please guide us as we get lost." Mrs. Grantham did not have Grantham The master's backbone was immediately softened.

Tang En didn't appreciate it, and said indifferently: "Madam, don't worry, the goddess knows everything, she will benefit all living beings, she won't mistreat good people, and she won't forgive wicked people."

Mrs. Grantham hit a soft nail, and she dared not speak.

There was the sound of the wheels of the carriage turning again at the door, and after a while, Marshall was seen rushing towards him.

Mrs. Grantham breathed a sigh of relief and rushed to meet her.She said: "It's so late, I still want you to catch this trip by yourself."

Marshall staggered her eyes asking for help, and shook hands with Tang En, "Hurry up and let this end."

Mrs. Grantham watched in astonishment as the two kissed face to face like old friends, and she couldn't add more horror in her heart.At the time when Master Grantham and Twain were tearing each other apart, Marshall was the assist. His expression of mocking Twain was still deeply imprinted in her mind, but now it was subverted.

Marshall turned around and looked at Mrs. Grantham with a calm and ruthless gaze, "The results of the fingerprint comparison came out, and they are not consistent."
