The Sun King's Evidence

Chapter 178, The Road to Bordeleau

"Of course, I feel very honored." Sulia didn't even hesitate. The female knight immediately put her little hand in white velvet gloves into Ryan's big hand.

"Thank you very much." Ryan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it was much easier to handle.

He felt that the female knight always helped him when he needed it most, which made his heart warm.

Moreover, Sulia still participated in this banquet in her own name. What this means to an unmarried female marquis, Ryan understands, and Sulia also understands.

There began to be a tacit understanding between them.

The two parties agreed to meet at Lane's side in three days, and then go to Bordeaux together.

The capital of the Principality of Bordreau, Bodrix, is not very far from Ryan's territory, Jean Territory. It will take up to two days to walk on the road. Ryan plans to arrive a day in advance. By the way, he can also visit the Poseidon Knights. Headquarters and the fertile Bodryux.

Ryan doesn't need many guards, but as a lord, he definitely can't go on the road alone like before. Doing everything by himself would be too cheap.

As usual, the status of the female knight made it inconvenient to stay here overnight. After making an appointment with Ryan, she left on Pegasus, leaving Emilia behind.

After half a year of schooling in Winford, Amelia matured quickly, but in front of Ryan, she was still the charming and lovely maid. After not seeing each other for a few months, Amelia's eyes were shining brightly as she sat Ryan's side whispered: "Mr. Ryan, I have heard everything about you. You destroyed the Ten Thousand Demon Rocks and completely defeated the Beastman tribe."

"This is not a big deal, Emilia. Eliminating those beastmen in the forest is what I should do." Ryan didn't take this matter seriously, but Emilia was very serious: "No, Mr. Lane, you protected this country, you are the best."

"Speaking of which, I used to be able to help you with my disguise skills, but now I can't help you with anything, Mr. Lane." Emilia pursed her thin lips and looked aggrieved: "I will be disliked by Mr. Lane if this continues."

"Haha~ How could I dislike you, Emilia, you have helped me a lot in many ways." Ryan knew that Emilia always wanted to repay his kindness but couldn't find a way, so He took the initiative and said: "By the way, I happen to be going to Bodriux next. Do you want to go with me?"

"Hey? Is that okay?" Emilia's eyes lit up.

"Well, Olica doesn't like to travel far, so just go with me this time. Is there nothing going on at the academy?"

"No."

"Well, this time you will go to Bodriux with me."

"good!"

…………

At the same time, Britannia, the Duchy of Connaught, and the cursed city of Mousilon.

Many parts of the tall city wall have sunk into the swamp. Fleeing serfs and various unidentified creatures occupy this port city. The streets are dark and eerie. Under the cover of the huge city wall, the number of hours of sunshine every day It takes no more than three hours, so most of the residents here are pale-skinned and listless.

The city's economic circulation system is still a mystery. There are taverns, brothels (harmony), drug dens, fighting pits, and other darker and more depraved places where people can indulge themselves. The shops here generally sell banned books, cult accessories, various poisons and assassination equipment, but there seems to be no normal life shops in any city such as food stores and tailor shops.

Most residents seem to have strange tasks that they have to go out of the city to complete. Every day, trucks and ships arrive in the city loaded with daily necessities. Among them, blood masters and vampire cavalry often appear among the crowd, but the blood nobles and the residents here do not. In a situation of mutual disregard, the vampires allowed the serfs to live here as long as they were willing to pay taxes or sell blood.

At the same time, this is the largest stolen goods sales den in Britannia. Although they are unwilling to admit it, in fact, many scoundrel knights who have a bright appearance always like to send their illegal gains here to sell stolen goods. Vampires purchase stolen goods in large quantities and They resell them and obtain huge profits. No one knows how they get rid of these goods.

Today, a carriage slowly drove into Musilon, driven by four dead horses.

That's right, four horses that have become undead and have lost all their flesh and blood.

This made the residents shudder, and they actively avoided the path of the bone horses into the city. The bodies of these bone horses were withered, and only the cyan soul fire burned in their eyes.

In the dark carriage, a low, dry, hoarse voice was replying to another young, energetic voice.

"Ah~ I don't know how much time has passed, how much time has passed, but I finally came to the old world again. The signs of divination and prophecy indicate that if we want our Lord to return from the darkness, we need to collect more materials." The low, dry hoarse voice said.

"Materials? Godfather, if we want the Lord of the Dead to return, what materials do we need to collect?" the young voice replied. This voice sounded extremely courageous and unruly, and at the same time full of hatred.

"We need to find the nine volumes compiled by our Lord. At the same time, we also need to collect a sufficient amount of magic activation carriers as a sacrifice to guide our Lord's return." The hoarse voice continued: "Ah~ there are only nine volumes The remaining magic power in the book can solve the mystery, and only enough sacrifices can attract the fragmented soul of my lord back to this world and complete his rebirth."

"One of the volumes is sealed in Britannia. I can sense that it is within the Principality of Belion. My godson, it's time, it's time to launch our plan. We It’s been years in the making.”

"The Red Duke has proven to be an incompetent man. Pure war cannot defeat these knights suffering from chivalry. We need to infiltrate and then disintegrate this country from within."

"I will definitely destroy this hypocritical country built on lies and deception! Godfather!" The young voice was full of hatred and pain: "I will end it all with my own hands, using my hands and long sword."

"Very good." The hoarse voice was filled with an unknown happiness: "Besides, we have a goal."

"That's it...she has always been mysterious, but we can..."

"Let's get started."

…………

Five days later, Ryan waited until Sulia came to join him as he wished.

The female knight took her maid Sylvia with her, and also brought five knights' retinue. They are all loyal knights of the Winford family, specially coming to protect their lady and serve her when traveling.

At this level, as a Marquise, Sulia will definitely not do some chores herself, and her maid Sylvia actually rarely does chores, so the servants must be well prepared when traveling.

Ryan did not intend to bring too many people. Just as he planned, he only brought Emilia and his butler Katzenberg. At the same time, there were five sergeants, who were brought in from Baron Jean. It only takes more than a day to travel to Bodriux, and the journey is not dangerous.

Just in time, Ryan ordered a luxurious carriage, so he arranged for the three girls to rest in the carriage, while he rode on the pure-blood elf war horse Grape, sitting in front of the carriage, chatting with his butler Katzenberg .

"The weather is getting colder. When we return to Jean, we can almost prepare for the winter." Ryan raised his head, and the cold wind of late autumn blew straight past like a bone scraper. Brittany Asia is not as cold as Nord, but its seaside and humid climate is destined to make this damp cold wind extremely powerful. Emilia, who is weaker, wants to come out to talk to him, but Ryan rushes her back. Go inside the carriage and wrap yourself in a blanket to keep out the cold.

"Yes, this year is a good harvest year. My Baron, we can have a good year. This is all thanks to the blessing of the lady." Katzenberg nodded, and a happy expression appeared on the butler's face: "I Baron, can I tell you the truth?"

"you say."

"I always thought that the Baron, as a Holy Grail Knight, wouldn't be that interested in managing his own territory... but my Baron, your talent in the field of internal affairs is really excellent. Now it seems that you don't need much assistance. You can handle many things well by yourself." Katzenberg said calmly.

"But that's why I need you. After all, I am a Holy Grail Knight serving ladies, not a courtier." Ryan nodded first, then shook his head: "My main focus will still be on the war."

"Then please allow me to continue to assist you, my Baron." Katzenberg said immediately: "We need each other."

"Maybe that's the case." Ryan agreed to the butler's request. Judging from his performance in the past few months, he was indeed very good: "By the way, can you tell me about your past? Your family turned out to be what for?"

"It's the executioner, my baron. I am a descendant of Baron Bafar. Of course, this was five or six generations ago. Baron Bafar was once a famous executioner in Winford. He was responsible for killing rebels and evil spirits." When a believer performs an execution, the subject will be tied to the stake and impaled to death, and then completely ignited and reduced to ashes.”

"Oh, that's such a bloody profession." Ryan sighed.

"Yes, my baron, but unfortunately, because I am not directly born, I cannot inherit any position or fief, and my family cannot afford to buy me knight equipment, but I know that I can become a courtier, and I can I believe this is my destiny, and when Mr. Ryan appeared in front of me, I knew it was time to come out and look for opportunities." Katzenberg continued.

"that's the truth……"

The conversation outside the carriage continued, and inside the carriage, the three girls were also whispering.

Emilia was wearing a brown leather coat with a white shirt underneath, a blue scarf and a brown skirt. The girl's deerskin boots were placed at the door of the carriage, and she wore black stockings on one pair of legs. The girl placed herself Wrapped in the blanket, the other two female knights joked: "Emilia, I told you, Britannia is not as good as the Empire or Nord. The climate here is relatively humid and feels very cold. "

"Well, Sister Lidya Su, Sister Sylvia, don't laugh at me anymore." Emilia said a little aggrievedly: "I just... I just..."

"Hahaha~" Sylvia and Sulia both laughed. They actually knew Emilia's little thoughts, because the two female knights also wore short skirts and stockings, but they were more experienced, not only She added long cotton stockings to the stockings, and also wore a warm bearskin coat.

Seeing Lidya Su's dignified and elegant look, Amelia was a little sad and a little self-pitying. The girl seemed to say casually: "That's great, sister Lidya Su. Mr. Lane has taken the initiative to invite you as his female companion. , when he was with me in Marienburg, he said that if he really didn’t have a female companion, he would take me with him.”

The female knight's heart moved. Emilia's words seemed to be referring to something, so she wrapped her legs with a blanket, holding a bear doll in her arms and took over what Emilia said: " If I had known this, I would have rejected Ryan's invitation, and then wouldn't you have had a chance, Emilia?"

"That's not okay. Mr. Lane will be sad if Sister Lidya Su does this." Emilia looked weak: "Anyway, this is good. I am very satisfied to be able to hang out with Mr. Lane." ”

"Hahahaha~" Lidya Su couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering. Although the girl in front of her was a little cautious, she was still very kind in nature.

However, her maid Sylvia suddenly said to her with a slight blush: "Miss, actually it is not good for you to directly agree to Lord Lane's request like this. It would be better to talk to the Duke first and then talk about it. ?”

"No~ it's different, Sylvia." Sulia took her maid's hand and said softly: "Maybe the result is the same, but Ryan's perception will be different."

"But..." Sylvia, who had a serious personality, blushed and wanted to say something, but the Duke's daughter shook her head. She paid attention to the movement outside, and then said in a voice that only three girls could hear: " It's different. Sylvia, Amelia, and Ryan obviously don't have enough confidence in themselves, and this is the time to let him dispel his doubts. There must be no hesitation at all, otherwise our previous efforts will be in vain. .”

Lidya Su didn’t say what the specific efforts were, Sylvia and Amelia both knew.

Emilia felt a little uncomfortable when she saw the Duke's daughter Luo Luo and his yin and yang. The girl sighed softly. She originally wanted to wait for Ryan to settle down here before looking for opportunities to slowly get closer to him. , but the speed with which the duke's daughter appeared in front of her was really surprising. Moreover, she had a gentle personality and a beautiful person. It was difficult not to feel good about her when getting along with her.

Moreover, Ryan's way of getting along with her is different. He still regards himself as a little maid and sister, but he and the female knight in front of him look like they are pursuing "that kind of" relationship.

Nothing happened along the way, and the three girls got along very easily and comfortably. The bearings of the carriage rotated slowly, and Sulia remembered another thing. She held Sylvia's little hand and said "By the way, Sylvia, haven't you always hoped that Ryan could give you some pointers on your sword skills? This is a good opportunity."

"Huh? But... but." Sylvia, who has a somewhat rigid and serious personality, immediately blushed: "It wouldn't be good to just go up and ask for advice... wouldn't it?"

"How could it be? Sylvia, don't forget, you..." Sulia said something in Sylvia's ear, and the maid blushed and nodded: "Well, that's true."

While the girls were still chatting happily in the carriage, Ryan, who was riding outside the carriage, met a young knight.

This young knight rides a standard Brittanian mixed-blood elf war horse. The war horse is covered with red and blue war horse harness, embroidered with fleur-de-lis patterns. The knight wears a full set of plate armor, with a A black blouse, with a shield engraved with a yellow lion with a sword on a black background.

This shows that he is a knight of the Duchy of Connet, but the fact that the coat of arms is not red and blue means that he is not a family knight or direct descendant of the duke.

Ryan had never seen this coat of arms before.

"Hello, traveler from far away, noble Knight of the Holy Grail, are you also planning to go to Bordeaux to attend the banquet?" the young knight said immediately, and it seemed that he was not surprised by the appearance of Ryan and others.

"Well, that's right, I'm Ryan Macado." Ryan said, "Who are you?"

"I am Mathubad, from the Principality of Connet. I am a knight errant. If I am not abandoned, can I go with you?"

After speaking, the young knight seemed to set his sights on the luxurious carriage intentionally or unintentionally.

"Everyone needs a companion on the road."
