After my rebirth, Miss Saint turned evil

At that time, he did not have the strength he has now, and his relationship with old Jed was not as good as it is now.

But looking at Selena's eyes, Murphy agreed after hesitation.

He was going to give it a try. If he could find it, that would be the best. But if he really couldn't find it... then there was nothing he could do.

But then, Selena's description of her brother gave Murphy a glimmer of hope.

Wood.

Selena's brother.

He is of unusual height and strength.

If what Selena said was true, then I think Old Jed would not refuse to help.

Thinking this way, Murphy ran to the backyard of the tavern with a bottle of good wine to look for someone the next day. At that time, he was still there receiving training from Old Jed with Sharon.

As he expected, although Old Jed saw through Murphy's disguise of "I am looking for talents for the organization and have absolutely no selfish motives" at a glance, he finally agreed readily.

There are more talents in the organization, and you can also do a favor for your apprentice. Why not do it?

With the help of Old Jed, the organization found the big guy, and he was sold to a local noble family in Lars to do hard labor.

So, on a dark and windy night, Old Jed sent someone to sneak in and tie Wood up.

There is no need to talk about what happened later.

It's nothing more than a brother and sister meeting each other, and they are extremely jealous (crying).

As a result, Murphy also gained a younger brother and sister.

But it only took one day, because Wood and Selena were sent to the royal capital by Old Jed.

It is not difficult to understand that the noble did not dare to reveal the fact that he bought slaves, because that would damage the reputation that the nobles valued most.

But if one day he saw Wood showing up in Lars in a brazen manner, things would inevitably become troublesome.

Therefore, in order to protect Wood and Selena, and to carry out the organization's business in the royal capital, Old Jed sent them over there to provide support (coolies) to the rats in the royal capital.

They did not disappoint. Although Selena was still a minor and her cowardly personality was a big problem, she had a smart mind.

Under the training of the original person in charge, she soon took over a lot of the organization's business.

Coupled with her brother Wood's strong physique, it only took the siblings one year to become the head of the organization's branch in the slums of the royal capital and opened their own restaurant there.

In a sense, Murphy earned it.

Because he just spent a little money and a bottle of good wine, and he gained two very high-level loyal fans.

But Murphy didn't care much about this. After all, he had no intention of inheriting the organization.

-------------------------------------

Murphy felt that the sky was getting darker. He looked up at the sky and found that the sun had begun to set without him noticing.

"It's time to go back."

With that, Murphy prepared to leave the city and return to the slums. He had already taken Selena to visit half of the capital today.

There's no way, the capital is too big.

However, before he started walking, Murphy felt someone pulling his hand, and he looked back in confusion.

After realizing that Murphy had noticed her, Selena let go, took out a small notebook, and began to write and draw on it.

When she finished writing, she handed the notebook directly to Murphy and held his hand again.

Murphy took the notebook, slowly read the contents on it, and gradually understood why Selena held her.

Selena said:

I need to stay in the city tonight and go back early tomorrow morning.

Because leaving the city when the sun is about to set, and leaving the city on foot, will inevitably arouse suspicion from the guards.

This point can reflect the difference between the royal capital and Lars, because there are slums outside the walls of the royal capital, which is the nearest place to stay.

Therefore, if Murphy and Selena dared to leave the city in the evening, they would definitely be spotted by the guards and suspected of being people from the slums.

After reading what Selena wrote, Murphy realized that she had just overlooked this point.

He scratched his head awkwardly and thanked the little girl.

In response to her, Selena's smile was as beautiful as a flower.

Chapter 82 Engagement

"Please give me a double room, thank you." This is a mid-level hotel. Murphy said to the clerk while standing at the counter.

"Okay, please wait a moment." The clerk had a customized smile on her face, which didn't make people feel uncomfortable. She rummaged through the drawer at the counter for a while, then looked up.

"Here is the room number plate and key assigned to you. Please keep them safe."

"Thank you."

Murphy ignored the strange look that the shop assistant gave him. He took the key, took a look at it, and then took Selena directly to the third floor of the hotel.

Of course he knew what that look meant, and he even felt that if he really did what the clerk thought, it would be quite beastly.

But there was no other way. The money was only enough to book a double room, and I didn't have that idea.

Although he originally planned to book two single rooms, Kaijia suddenly had only enough money left in his pocket to book one room.

As for the slyly delighted smile on Selena's face as she lowered her head like a thief, and the way she had just stuffed the money back into her pocket...

Well, just pretend you didn’t see it. Anyway, we slept in the same room when I first bought her.

-------------------------------------

The next morning, Murphy checked out of the room with the sleepy Selena, and after a brief questioning by the doorman, they went straight back to the slums.

As for Old Jed, there was still no news from him, and even Bray, who had been following him, had no news, as if they had never been to the capital.

But Murphy was not worried. After all, that was old Jed. There was nothing he could do about dying under the claws of a dragon, but it was basically impossible for him to die at the hands of a human.

After safely sending Selena to Wood, Murphy said to him in a serious tone: "Wood, I will tell the master in a few days and ask him to transfer you and Selena back to Lars."

The noble who had bought Wood before had been ruined by the "black materials" that were flying all over the place. They sold their assets in Lars at a low price and left there in disgrace. No one knew where they went.

So now Wood and Selena have no worries at all, and there is no problem even if they go back to Lars directly.

The idea of ​​bringing them back to Lars was not a sudden idea of ​​Murphy's, but a remedy for the unchangeable regrets of the past after he regained his memories.

Seeing that Wood opened his mouth but didn't say anything, Murphy thought he was reluctant to give up the status he had slowly developed here, so he continued, "Of course, I know you will definitely be reluctant to give up your property here, so I will also let Master help you arrange it."

"Well... although Lars's place is definitely not as free as here, after all, there are still a lot of things to do, and those old-fashioned leaders probably won't welcome you very much, but I still hope you can go back."

It would be best if the brother and sister were willing to go back, but if they were not willing, there was nothing I could do to persuade them and I could only think of other solutions.

Wood was still standing there in a daze, without responding to Murphy's meaning at all. Instead, Selena next to Murphy jumped up first.

She babbled, shook Murphy's arm, and gave him a lovely smile.

Fortunately, no one was dining in the restaurant at the moment, otherwise her actions would definitely attract a lot of people's attention.

"Thank you, Brother Murphy! I've been wanting to go home for a long time!"

This is what Selena just wrote in the notebook, and there is a sentence after the sentence: ?(?▽｀)

Murphy looked at the contents of the notebook and smiled, then turned to look at Wood and asked, "Wood, what about you? Are you going back?"

At this time, Wood had already reacted to his sister's cheers and Murphy's questions, but his not-so-bright brain still didn't know what to say.

In the end, after holding it in for a long time, he only managed to say one sentence:

"Me too."

-------------------------------------

Before he knew it, Murphy had been in the capital for four days, but the good show that Old Jed had talked about still hadn't happened.

During these four days, he either played with Selena in the slums or went to the royal capital with her to hang out.

But there was no sign of any major events in the royal capital, and the residents were living their normal lives every day. This stagnant situation made Murphy wonder if old Jed had made a mistake in the time.

On the evening of the fourth day, Murphy finally couldn't help but ask Selena, "Has anything happened in the capital during the four days I've been here?"

Although Selena has been with him these days, she is not the one collecting the intelligence. A group of her subordinates provide her with information every day.

For his own reasons, Murphy did not read the content of the intelligence.

In the bedroom, Selena, who was sitting on the bed in her teddy bear pajamas, ran to the table after hearing Murphy's question, picked up a small notebook and started writing.

Murphy sat opposite her and waited quietly.

After spending the past few days with him, and after the suggestion he made to them that day to "transfer Lars back", Selena no longer clung to him as much as she did at the beginning.

Although as long as I stay in the slums, I still have to sleep in the same room with her at night.

Don't get me wrong, it's not that Murphy wanted to do this. It's simply that the bed in Wood's room could not accommodate a second person after its owner fell into bed.

There were no hotels in the slums, and Murphy didn't want to make another special trip to the capital.

In addition to Selena's own strong request, Murphy finally chose to sleep on the floor in her room.

Selena wrote quickly because Murphy was asking about what happened in the capital during the past four days, not about the capital's recent situation like Old Jed had asked before.

She handed the notebook to Murphy, then ran back to the bed and sat down. One of her legs was on the edge of the bed, and because she was not tall enough, her other leg was hanging in the air, swaying, looking very naughty and cute.

Murphy just glanced at Selena's white and tender feet and then moved her eyes directly to the notebook and began to carefully read what Selena had just written.

Selena wrote very quickly and the content was not much, so Murphy read it quickly as well. He finished reading all the content in just a few glances.

While reading these contents, Murphy unconsciously showed an expression on his face.

Because the last line on that page read:

The daughter of the current Earl of the Reinhard family, Filia Reinhard, is engaged to Kelson Ashburn, the eldest son of the current Earl of the Ashburn family.

Chapter 83: Mate Selection Criteria

The moment he saw the last line, Murphy's mind was filled with uncontrollable surprise.

Filia, the Filia who regarded the sword as her other half, the Filia who regarded her gender as a swordsman, was actually engaged.

At this moment, what flashed through Murphy's mind was a conversation between him and Filia after a training session when he was still in the brave team.

At that time, he was exhausted from being trained. With not a single bit of strength left, he lay on the ground, panting and said to Filia who was sitting beside him: "Ha...ha...so rough. Later...when that guy defeats the Demon King and comes back, who will be willing to marry you?"

"Huh?" Filia, who was sitting on the grass, did not answer Murphy's question immediately, but glared at him with dissatisfaction.

After finding him lying on the ground, gasping for breath with his eyes tightly closed, completely unaware of her gaze, Filia snorted heavily before replying with a disdainful tone, "I won't get married. I still have to continue to improve my swordsmanship."

"Even if I really want to get married in the future, I have to wait until someone appears who can defeat me head-on in swordsmanship."

Murphy was speechless at this answer. It was indeed very Filia's style. He smiled bitterly, opened his eyes, sat up, looked at Filia and said quietly, "Then you probably will never get married."

Filia didn't show any anger at this. She simply stood up with a calm expression and said in an equally calm tone, "You seem to have recovered well. Let's continue training. You're not qualified to protect Candice yet."

Murphy's face turned bitter, he knew that Filia was taking revenge on her.

But his words just now were not meant to be mocking, because in this world, there should be no man who is better at swordsmanship than Filia.

That brave man should have some chance, but Murphy now knows that the brave man is a woman, so there is no man in the world who can achieve more than Filia in swordsmanship.

But this Filia is engaged now?

Yes, she has not grown up yet, and her strength has not yet reached its peak.

But according to Murphy's memory, there are not many people who want to defeat the current Filia, and those are all well-known swordsmanship masters.

As for the people who are about the same age as Filia, Murphy can definitely tell the number: 0

He himself doesn't count, because he is cheating.

Thinking of this, he immediately turned to look at Selena and waved at her. Seeing his action, Selena jumped out of bed and ran over.

Murphy handed the notebook over and asked, "That Earl's son, Kai...Kelson Ashburn? Is he very powerful?"

Selena tilted her head and thought for a moment before she began writing in her notebook.

"What did Brother Murphy mean by "powerful"?

Murphy took the book, glanced at it, and handed it back: "Swordsmanship."

As the sound of the pen tip grinding on the paper continued to reach his ears, Murphy got the answer:

"From what my brother and I have learned during the year we've been here, Kelson Ashburn doesn't have much talent in swordsmanship, but he has a good sense of politics."
