king of the castle

Chapter 156

Hearing Anna's words, Roger was taken aback for a while, and then gave up his plan to summon soldiers. 【】Roger knew that after all, he had only been in the world of Torenzo for a short time, and he had only entered the upper class for a few days, so he still had to follow Anna's advice for some things.Especially now that he was in the duke's mansion, if he caused any trouble, there was no room for him to get out of it. If he caused trouble out of impulsiveness, it would not be worth the loss.

However, Roger's reluctance to do anything for the time being does not mean that this matter is over.The opponent came up and launched a sneak attack without saying a word. If he hadn't had a magic ring, he would be seriously injured even if he was not dead. This revenge must be avenged.At this time, the fog caused by the fireball and the water wall had dissipated. Roger gave the other party a bitter look, remembering this guy's appearance firmly, and planned to find an opportunity to settle the account with him again in the future.

Now that Anna spoke up, Jansen naturally couldn't continue to do it.He glanced at the broken sapphire on his belt, feeling a little more heartbroken besides his anger.At the critical moment just now, Jenson activated the defensive magic stored in this sapphire in advance to avoid being injured by the fireball technique.

However, the sapphire is not like Roger's magic ring, which can be re-used with a limited charge.After releasing its stored magic, Sapphire becomes waste.This kind of specially processed sapphire is of high value, and even a nobleman like Jenson cannot consume it casually.Especially when the expensive sapphire was accidentally lost, Jenson felt very depressed.He didn't want to think that he was the first to provoke others, but he also blamed Roger for the loss of the sapphire, and wanted to get rid of this love rival even more.

Although in his heart he wished to tear Roger to pieces, Jason still hid his thoughts well, and pretended to be surprised, he came forward and said, "Anna, dear, are you alright?"

"This shameless person dares to call Anna my dear, I haven't called it before!" Hearing that Jason was very dissatisfied with what Anna called Roger, he stared at this guy and thought: "I don't know this guy What is the relationship with Anna, but it seems to be very familiar, the situation is not good!"

Just when Roger secretly guessed the relationship between Anna and Jenson, Anna said with a straight face: "I am fine, but something will happen as soon as you show up. Why did you cast a spell on me? If it wasn't for Roger's desperate protection, I have now been killed by you!"

At this time Anna showed her shrewd and capable side.Although she knew that Jenson was definitely targeting Roger, she took the matter to herself as soon as she opened her mouth, and immediately pushed Jenson into a very passive position.

However, as the first heir of the big family, Jansen is naturally not an ordinary person.Although Anna's accusation was already very serious, he still acted calmly, as if nothing had happened just now.

"Honey, it's just a misunderstanding. I saw that gentleman holding you..." At this point, Jansen paused for a while, raised his chin towards Roger and said, "And his expression is so...wretched , I thought it would be bad for you if there were criminals breaking in, so I used magic."

When Roger heard that Jenson actually used "wretched" to describe himself, he immediately became angry. He had never been said that since he was a child.Especially when Luo Jie danced with Anna with full of love just now, it was too much to be called "wretched".If Anna hadn't quietly pulled Roger, telling him not to be too impulsive, Roger might have rushed forward to scold Jenson at this time.

Although Anna told Roger not to be impulsive, it didn't mean she wasn't angry.She stared at Jenson with frost on her pretty face, her beautiful and deep eyes were full of ice-cold gazes, she did not hide her disgust for him at all.

"I've said it a long time ago, we are just ordinary friends, please don't call me dear." Anna said relentlessly, "Can you just use the three words 'I thought' to cast magic in the Duke's mansion? If my guest has any accident, can you bear the responsibility?"

This was the first time that Jansen was reprimanded mercilessly by Anna in person, and his face couldn't help but become a little troubled.

After all, it was Jenson's fault in this matter. If Anna grabbed hold of him and even stabbed him in front of the king, he would definitely not do any good.

Everyone knew that Jenson was pursuing Anna, and no one would believe that he did it because of a misunderstanding, but that he did it because of jealousy.Jealousy among nobles is very common, and even duels over it often result in death.But if you stab someone in the back because of this, or even use magic, it is tantamount to breaking the rules of the game, and you will definitely be cast aside by everyone.

For a family heir like Jansen, every move will affect the image of the family, and everything he does must take into account the interests of the family.If this matter gets out today, not only will Jenson's reputation be greatly damaged, but the Barton family will also be implicated.

So Jansen's expression changed again and again, but after all he didn't dare to show his face, he just forced a smile to Anna: "I still have some sense of propriety, the water archery just now will just push people away from you, but It's not some murderous magic."

Jensen deliberately downplayed the power of water archery.In fact, if Roger was hit by the water column, although he would not die on the spot, it would be inevitable to break a few bones.It's just that Roger and Anna are not familiar with magic, and they have no way to distinguish whether Jenson's words are true or false.

However, Jansen knew very well that no matter how he defended himself, what he did on the spur of the moment just now always gave Anna a chance.He also didn't want to stay in the duke's mansion for a long time, so he bid farewell to the two and left soon.Before leaving, Jenson took a deep look at Roger, and already regarded him as the target he wanted to get rid of quickly.

"Why don't you let me teach that guy a lesson?" As soon as Jenson walked away, Roger complained to Anna: "He is obviously targeting me on purpose, and he will be punished to death for such a guy!"

"I'm sorry, Roger, I'm also out of guilt." Of course, Anna knew that Roger must be aggrieved, so she comforted him softly, and then told him about Jenson's background.

"Not to mention that Jenson's father has a lot of power in the Senate, even his status as a magician is very important." In the end, Anna said with some regret: "Even if my father was present just now, he would not easily break up with Jenson. It's embarrassing. And if you really start fighting with him, I'm afraid..."

Anna didn't say anything further here, but Roger already understood what she meant. Anna was afraid that she would suffer if the two of them did it.Thinking that Jansen's background is deeper than his own, and his strength is also stronger than his own, and there is no benefit to fighting him, Roger couldn't help but sighed: "It's the same everywhere. If you don't have the strength, you have to bear it!"
