Sword Sorcery

Chapter 311 Coming
Angeli's 'little boy' is a powerful mysterious person. He beheaded a large group of knights at the banquet, and even the seventh prince of the Finnish royal family, Leed, was not spared. To this day, the body of Prince Leed is still hanging in the Outside the gate of Duke Judy's manor——

To serve as a warning to others.

This heavy news swept through the entire aristocratic circle of Corvo port like a whirlwind.

There was an uproar in the whole circle!
They immediately faced a problem, that is, the choice of their own position, just like when the Finnish Empire elects the next monarch, the courtiers need to face the problem of standing in line to support the prince.

Fortunately, An Geli's "little boy" didn't know whether it was because of his confidence in strength or other reasons. He didn't force the nobles to make a choice, but gave them a "buffer" time——

Some people chose to be opportunistic, some chose to wait and see what happened, and some people preferred the Finnish royal family. They all made different choices.

As a result, the nobles began to walk around in private. Under the seemingly normal surface of Corvo Port, it has already fallen into a dark tide.
Duke Judy's estate

The hall where the banquet was once held has been cleaned up. The bloody stains, which were originally unsightly, have disappeared under the careful wiping of the servants, revealing a piece of elegant white and exquisite walls, and the whole hall exudes an elegant atmosphere again. .

Maids stood in every corner of the hall, waiting for orders from their masters or guests.

At this time, Aaron sat on the sofa in the hall, took a sip of hot tea from a maid, and asked Duke Judy, "How is it? A nobleman came to see us in private?"

Duke Judy sat opposite, and said with a wry smile: "A lot of people came, but unfortunately, they are not willing to express their attitude publicly, and only dare to show their affection to us in private."

"Sure enough."

Aaron nodded, not surprised by the nobles' choice.

The matter between themselves and the Finnish royal family is not over yet, they must not dare to stand in line openly, lest they make a wrong bet when the time comes, not only will they lose their fortunes, but they will lose their lives in the end!

Therefore, that group of nobles was probably playing a game of 'hedge betting'. While they were showing their favor to Aaron in private, they also quietly expressed their loyalty to the Finnish royal family, which fully demonstrated the true ability of a fool.

"Forget it, you don't have to worry about them."

Aaron waved his hand, signaling Duke Judy not to pay attention to those people: "Anyway, I'm here to solve the trouble once and for all. As long as they don't cause trouble for me, I don't bother to bother with them."

At this time, Angeli, who was next to her, peeled a grape and handed it to Aaron's mouth. Seeing the other party eating it in one bite, a child-like smile appeared on her face.

Seeing Angeli's appearance as a little girl, Duke Judy couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Her 'sister' had always looked sullen since she left the Leo family.

Now, An Geli has regained her vitality, which also made Judy feel relieved, but there is still one thing she doesn't understand, and there is always a feeling of uneasiness in her heart——

"Mr. Aaron, isn't your behavior towards the Finnish royal family too 'rough'?"

Judy's words were more tactful, but they also expressed her meaning.

Indeed, after Aaron showed his own strength, if he did not choose to kill the opponent's prince, the Finnish royal family would never "declare war" in order to win over an official wizard.

An official wizard is like a mobile human-shaped fort on the lunar continent where resources are scarce. Even if the Finnish royal family also has a powerful wizard, they are not willing to easily offend another official wizard.

But Aaron did such a great job that the Finnish royal family completely lost their way down, and they had to choose "revenge"—at least, the Finnish royal family wanted to restore their lost face.

Prince Lied is not important to the Finnish Empire, but he represents the majesty and face of the Finnish royal family.

Therefore, the Finnish royal family is also a 'last resort' in another sense.

Regarding Judy's question, Aaron shook his head: "At the beginning, if I let Prince Lied go, the Finnish royal family would show me a certain degree of friendship, and they will not intervene in the Corvo port for the time being. "

"However, this relationship does not solve problems, especially when it comes to self-interest!"

Aaron changed the topic: "The Finnish royal family covets the port of Corvo, and unlike Charles, I will not stay in the port of Corvo forever, and will soon return to the Wizarding Continent to improve my strength."

"So, after I leave Corvo port with Angelie, the Finnish royal family will extend their hand again."

Duke Judy understood everything when he heard the words, and suddenly his face turned pale, and he murmured: "So, the real reason why you killed Prince Lied so hard was to keep us."

"Only if you hurt a dog, it won't bite you again, right?"

Aaron interrupted the other party's words, and waved his hand indifferently: "I once promised Duke Charles to protect his descendants, besides, I also benefited from his help back then, so I have Opportunity to go overseas to 'study'."

"If I pat my ass and leave, you will never be able to defend Corvo Port."

Duke Judy hurriedly stood up, bowed to Aaron and said, "Your Excellency Aaron, thank you very much for your help, I really don't know how to repay you."

Aaron raised his right hand upwards, and a force directly caressed Duke Judy's body——

"As I said, this is something I promised Duke Charles, so you don't have to pay too much attention to it, besides..."

Aaron turned around and pinched An Geli's cheek, as if he was treating a child, and immediately "irritated" An Geli who was concerned about this. She waved her small fist to greet Aaron, but unfortunately it had no effect.

I saw that Aaron explained nonchalantly——

"Besides, I really hate that Lied, even without your factors—"

"I'll kill him too."

a few days later
Baker family estate,
In the grass in the outer area of ​​the manor, there were sneaky figures lying on their stomachs, and occasionally two figures 'bumped' into the front——

"Hey, Hawk, why are you here?"

"Matthew, you also know the situation. It is estimated that the day when Wilson arrives at the port of Corvo will be in the last few days, so I was arranged by Marlo to stay here."

"Hey, your wife is pretty good at calling people. It's rare that you, the son-in-law of an official knight, have to come over in person."

Just as the two people in the grass were communicating, suddenly, the eyes of the two people paused, and they saw a figure in a white robe appearing at the gate of the manor——

"Wilson is here!"
