Princess' personal painter
Page 96
Before the relationship was really established, Sisyana never expected that Erin's "nature" would be so surprising, which made her feel like falling into the other party's trap-of course, what she could not deny was that she did Some are indulging in the "surprise" bestowed by this peculiar girl.
"I realized my liking for you early in the morning, but I kept pretending not to know. Fortunately, I used to think you were an emotional idiot... I only found out that I was an idiot in the end." Thinking about these things, Eileen felt in her heart You can imagine how much resentment you have, "Anyway, you deliberately designed that situation to seduce me that night, dear sister, you don't have to be 'innocent' at all!"
Sisyana, who had been exposed, couldn't help but burn her face, and whispered: "If I had to choose again, I wouldn't choose to associate with someone who is too smart..."
Irene softly "hummed": "If you can't let it go, Eunika probably won't understand your acquiescence for the rest of her life... You girls are really troublesome!"
"Only on this point, Irene is very frank."
After a pause, Sisyana suddenly thought of something, and asked hesitantly: "If Irene fell in love with other girls besides me, would she pursue it like a boy?"
Irene, who was taken aback for a moment, couldn't help turning her head to look at Sisyana.
However, the girl's expression was covered by the veil, so she couldn't see clearly, and she didn't know what she meant by asking this sentence.Irene thought for a while, then said with a smile: "I am very single-minded. I will not like other girls except my favorite Xi Ya. Anyway, please don't worry."
Uh huh, don't try to trick me, I know the tricks of tricking girls very well...
"Tch, I don't believe it."
It's a pity that with Sisyana's exquisite mind, Irene couldn't fool her.She stretched out her fingers, and settled them one by one: "I won't say more about you and Unica, heh; when I set off from Alice to the south, Miss Jacqueline would chase after you. Come to us, it must have something to do with you, there seems to be something else happening afterwards; also in Bilanbao, you seem to have a hot fight with Miss 'Dale' of the Perrin family while I was asleep, and this matter is also true. It's well known..."
"My lord sister... are you jealous?" Irene panicked.
"Is that for sure?" Sisyana asked in a bad tone.
Irene said cautiously: "But...at that time we hadn't confirmed our relationship yet!"
"That said." Sisyana exposed a certain fact in a subtle tone, "But if given the chance, with your 'nature', Irene, you wouldn't give up on them easily, would you?"
Oops, can't refute...
Well, why did you say it!These words spoil the atmosphere of love...
I thought about almost all the ways to deal with it in my mind, and finally found that I couldn't hide any secrets from Sisyana. In the end, Irene had no choice but to complain: "If I have to choose again, I don't want to Choose to associate with someone who is too smart..."
"Ah, it's really each other."
The awkward atmosphere between the two lasted for a while, and Sisyana suddenly sighed: "I want to know, does the girl with the umbrella we met this afternoon have any special relationship with you?"
Excuse me, this is what I want to ask, right?
"It's a classmate I met in Karenin." A little dazed, Irene replied truthfully, "Her identity is very special...and, a lot of things happened at that time..."
Sisyana asked softly: "If, I mean, if...she is our enemy in this operation, will you withdraw from this operation?"
This question made Irene bite her lips, and after a long while, her eyes suddenly showed firmness: "No, if it's an enemy, I'll just find a way to make her our companion! "
Chapter 11 "Old Friends" and the Bursting Conflict
Although Sair is the capital of the principality, it is not directly under the direct jurisdiction of the Grand Duke of Morvia.
The city lord of this city was actually jointly elected by the guild alliance in the city. He only accepted the order of the Grand Duke in form and had considerable autonomy.
The Principality of Morvia is located in a plateau wasteland area, with barren products and a sparse population. The overall strength of the country is also quite weak compared to surrounding countries. By granting the city-state autonomy and allowing the existence of gray areas to maintain a certain potential military strength, perhaps That's why this country has survived.
In the guild alliance, the most important ones are the "Mercenary Union" and "Anhill Firm".
The former has a strong force and accepts various transnational commissions; the latter is famous for its semi-annual joint auction activities, and is almost the wealth circulation center of Sayel.They together constitute the pillar of Sayel's guild, and no one knows how much strength is hidden behind these two behemoths.
In addition to these two, there are various small and medium-sized guilds, the most famous of which is the "Assassin's League" hidden in the dark, which specializes in accepting various assassination commissions at high prices.
Although despicable acts such as assassination are often despised by the world, as long as there are struggles in the human world, the need for assassination will not disappear.
Assassin is always a daunting profession.
Walking on the road, when listening to Sisyana beside her talk about these things, Irene had to admire the girl's knowledge and knowledge.When she heard the information about the League of Assassins, she faintly felt that some clueless clues in her heart were connected together, and asked in a low voice: "The assassination commissions accepted by the League of Assassins should mainly target those from other countries, right?" ?”
"That's right, Sayir is only their residence, and the assassins actually operate throughout the entire eastern continent." Sisyana said in a dignified tone, "Even in peaceful times, the demand for assassins is enduring. Over the past few years, the Eastern Continent has been in turmoil, and I am afraid that this force will rise again..."
While talking, Irene and Sisyana came to the secret meeting place Teresa said.
Carefully pushing the old wooden door, there was a "squeak" sound, Irene and Sisyana looked at each other, and walked in with a certain degree of vigilance.
This is a seemingly deserted courtyard, with half-dried weeds spreading over the calf, shaking slightly at dusk, the setting sun slanting across the eaves, and the surroundings are dark and silent.
Of course, this superficial calm could not deceive Sisyana's perception. She looked straight in one direction and said in a slightly cold voice, "Come out."
Coming out of the shadows was a man in a tuxedo. He bowed to Sisyana, smiled and extended his hand as an invitation gesture: "Being able to discover my breath is worthy of being special." A person approved by Master Lisa. I have been waiting here for a while, specially to meet Miss Magician..."
It was only then that Irene recognized that this person was the waiter who received the two during the day.
"Playing with mystery." Ignoring the other party's outstretched hand, Sisyana narrowed her eyes and asked, "Isn't the meeting place here?"
"Isn't it normal to have reservations about new members with unknown origins? Ms. Magician must be able to understand, right?" The man in the tuxedo withdrew his hand without a trace, and turned to look at Irene, "However, I think Do you know what is going on with this 'little master'? This mission is quite dangerous, if you are not strong enough, it will inevitably drag down other members, so it is not advisable to join in to satisfy idle curiosity."
Unexpectedly, the other party would point the finger at Irene, Sisyana suppressed her anger and asked, "Is this what Teresa meant?"
"Sorry, this is my own personal opinion."
After a pause, the man in the tuxedo stared at Irene with a dangerous look in his eyes: "Also, I always feel that I have seen 'Little Master' somewhere, but I just can't think of it... If you keep your strength, And if you want to join us, can you tell me your identity?"
"No comment." Sisyana took Irene's hand, gesturing to turn around and leave, and said lightly, "It's ridiculous, we had no intention of participating in your action, since you don't welcome us so much, we will go on our own That’s right, it just relieved your doubts.”
"Coincidentally, I think the same way." The man in the tuxedo seemed to have no intention of keeping him.
Just when the situation was at a stalemate, another mature female voice came from the side, with obvious anger in her tone: "Naru, your behavior is too rude! I believe Master Teresa's vision of people, he said If there is no problem, nothing will go wrong!"
As soon as the words fell, a young woman in a light green thin shirt holding a ledger quickly walked up to Irene and Sisyana, and apologized in a sincere tone: "Please allow me to apologize for Naru's rude words and deeds." Apologies, the Guild Alliance very much welcomes the two of you to join our operation as strong support, and we will definitely thank you with a great gift after the event is completed!"
The man called Naru showed a contemptuous smile: "It's hard to imagine that the second lady in charge of the Anhill Chamber of Commerce would easily believe outsiders who met for the first time. Could it be that she already knew the identities of these two? Say yes What about all the intelligence sharing for this operation?"
"What do you mean?"
"The housekeeper we are going to deal with, didn't she just issue an investigation request to the chamber of commerce some time ago?"
Seeing the young woman's face turned cold, she turned around and scolded: "Please put away your boring speculations, if you stay in the dark corner for too long, I'm afraid you will only have a sinister and cunning mind. Is there trust between people?"
"Trust? A businessman who puts interests first will talk to me about trust?" Naru retorted, "Young lady in the greenhouse, if you have experienced the feeling of being hunted for thousands of miles, enjoying the company of corpses and maggots Days, I'm afraid you won't think so... To be honest, I doubted from the very beginning whether this would be a conspiracy to catch us all!"
The young woman snorted coldly: "With your qualifications, you really have the courage to say these words."
"When it comes to seniority, we're probably each other."
When Irene and Sisyana didn't react, the conflict between the two intensified, which made them stand there awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
However, compared to Sisyana's hesitation, Irene has captured some important information from the conversation between the two, confirming the identity of the man named "Naru".Thinking of the sudden event that changed the fate of many people, Irene couldn't help showing a subtle chill.
"Your Excellency the 'clown' who is frightening, you did meet me once."
Turning around and staring straight at the other party, Irene decided to face up to the grievances of the past, her tone was unusually cold: "The gift that Your Excellency gave me at that time was really unfamiliar and unforgettable to me."
Chapter 12 Unresolved grievances
This man in a tuxedo and called Naru is, in a sense, Irene's enemy.
Half a year ago, at the time of Karenin, a group of people headed by "Joker" assassinated Yorick Swain, a young man who was born in a prominent noble family, in the street, causing Erin and others who were involved in the accident to fall into danger situation.Although she was out of danger in the end, the strength shown by the two girls Mia and Qiye in the chaos made Erin's situation quite delicate.
Subsequently, the Kuroshio Chamber of Commerce was investigated by Anluer under the intentional misfortune of the "clown", and finally fell into the situation of being hunted down.
If there hadn't been the assassination case that served as the fuse, Irene's fate would have been completely different.
"However, I also have to admit...all that was triggered by you really changed me a lot."
While speaking, a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Irene walked slowly towards the "clown" and asked, "About the assassination in the north half a year ago, who is your employer?"
"Huh? Please wait..."
Realizing that Irene was in an abnormal situation, Sisyana called out to her in surprise, but the girl in sight stopped in her tracks again, and whispered, "Sorry, I'm going to be willful again..."
"Willful... what?"
"I already know...we didn't come out to play." Irene sighed softly, "We came out to do 'business', whether it's Xi Ya's business or mine... ..."
Sisyana's eyes became moist, and she asked softly, "Irene, have you decided?"
"Yeah." Nodding briefly, Irene whispered, "We don't need to hide our identities anymore."
According to the initial thoughts, Sisyana did not intend to deliberately conceal her identity during the journey. Although this would inevitably bring a lot of trouble, the identity of Princess Ruobayashi would bring convenience to their actions—especially in the identification process. On these two things, the orb and the subsequent trip to Froz.
However, because Eileen cherishes the time when the two of them are alone, and hopes that this trip will not be disturbed by external factors, she specially proposed the idea of concealing her identity to Sisyana.Because of this, Her Royal Highness, who is considerate, naturally agreed to the request from her lover.
Of course, Eileen now recognized the reality.
The blue-haired and blue-eyed Sisyana's appearance is too dazzling, no matter where she goes, she is easily recognized by others. Even if she is wearing a veil, it is difficult for others not to pay attention to her.
The more important reason is that both of them are carrying some very heavy things on their bodies.
Taking the opportunity of joining this operation and helping the Principality of Morvia to restore the rule of the Neherbet family, they have drawn potential allies for themselves. This is the conclusion they reached after discussing in the hotel just now.
The potential benefits outweigh the risks.
Although the guild alliance is an object that is difficult to trust, the top-notch Sisyana is obviously not afraid of the hidden dangers, and even if the cooperation fails, there will be no great loss.That being the case, rather than intentionally concealing the identity of Princess Ruolin, it is better to negotiate openly and honestly from the very beginning.
But before negotiating, Erin wanted to do one more thing.
He reached out and took off his gray hat, his gorgeous chestnut hair shining in the dusk.
Then, Erin reached out and gently wiped off the disguise on her face, revealing her true face, looking at the "clown" in front of her, she asked: "Your Excellency, 'clown', do you remember?"
"You are... that girl from the chamber of commerce!"
After Naru recognized Erin, she fell into a brief shock.Thinking of the unexpected development of the subsequent incident, he turned his head subconsciously again, looked at Sisyana who was standing silently not far away, and asked hesitantly: "Mo, could it be... this is from the south... "
"Her identity is just as you think." Irene interrupted him lightly and asked in a sarcastic tone. "I don't know if you still insist on what you just said?"
Naru was silent for a while, then took a deep breath, and said noncommittally: "This young lady seems to have misunderstood me. I was not in the same group as those vicious mercenaries during the operation in the north. I did not take the lives of other people except for the specific target. The group of executioners intentionally created a tragedy, and it was completely beyond my expectations."
"There's no need to argue." Irene shook her head, "I just want to know who your employer is."
"Don't reveal the employer's information, this is the assassin's rule." Thinking that the girl he offended happened to take refuge in an unattainable backer, Naru's face became ugly, and he took a step back quietly, ready Ready to evacuate at any time, "Even if you threaten me, it's useless."
During the confrontation, the atmosphere was stalemate there for a while.
I saw the woman in green who had been watching just now approached Irene and Naru, persuading them: "If you two have any grievances that need to be settled, it is best to enter the secret room and have a thorough discussion..."
After a pause, the woman in green looked at Naru coldly and said, "Your complexion is really ugly. Where is the arrogance just now? It's really not because of the name you gave yourself as a 'humbler'... now it is Did you see that the nobleman can't even lift his head? You have held on for so long, wouldn't it be over if you apologized sooner?"
Naru's face turned blue and red.
His eyes wandered among the few people for a while, and then he suddenly let out a heavy "hum", reached into the skirt of his clothes, took out a clown mask and put it on his face.
A treacherous smile bloomed on his face.
The face of the woman in green changed, and she quickly shouted: "Don't be impulsive... Oh no, help stop him!"
