After my rebirth, Miss Saint turned evil

He is powerful wherever he goes, and madness is always brewing in his mind.

There is no doubt that Helena is one of the few people who will raise the sword in her hand with a firm will and tear apart those who tarnish her dignity.

Because dignity is noble and never allows for compromise, people like to pay a price for these things.

Although this is a big trouble in some ways, such a trait is really...desirable.

"————However, I'll give you some time as a buffer."

Helena tilted her head slightly, narrowed her eyes, and smiled as she continued:

"After all, you're the first person who dared to point a knife at me. You should have some privileges, right?"

"It can be in Lars, or somewhere else. Earn the corresponding status on your own and become my equal."

"By then, under your protection, we will naturally let the brother and sister go."

I could feel that the arms wrapped around my neck seemed to relax a little.

From the moment I was hugged around the neck until now.

The scent emitted by Helena was still sharply stinging Murphy's cheeks.

But fortunately, the other party didn't seem to intend to kill him here.

And finally, at this almost suffocating distance, Helena said this to him.

"Murphy, you have to be more aggressive, more cunning, but still upright."

"Just like you just now, always radiating light."

After saying this, Helena left a small mark on Murphy's neck.

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

What Helena said seemed to be true. She handed Selena to Murphy very readily and kept her word.

For some reason, Selena's hands and feet were always tied up.

Her eyes were filled with tears, and she tried desperately to tell Murphy something.

However, perhaps because he can't speak, he uses his hands and feet to play around.

Anyway, Selena is still full of health and energy, which is a good thing.

Murphy gently lifted her into his arms and left Helena's house.

What surprised Murphy was that no one really attacked the two of them.

And the handsome butler who had met before even politely led the two of them to the door, as if he was seeing off his own guests.

And according to him, even his close associates who were previously captured by the private soldiers as amateur "arsonists" have all been released, and there have not even been any casualties.

Why is that? It's really strange.

Murphy, whose mind was full of questions, sighed deeply.

The moment he walked out of the door, he wondered if he would be stabbed in the back by the private soldiers who suddenly appeared. Similar thoughts kept flashing through Murphy's mind, making him nervous and vigilant.

However, this is just unnecessary concern.

As if mocking his cowardice, he returned to Wood's restaurant easily with Selena in his arms.

But this makes Helena's last words seem even more real.

This made Murphy feel very frustrated. After all, it was easier to deal with it by sending people to attack directly than being monitored by invisible eyes and ears.

And that—give you some time as a buffer, this was said by Helena herself.

What it means is that if you don't gain the corresponding status somewhere, you will be ambushed somewhere. That's probably it.

Of course, Wood and Selena are included.

Although they had already planned to send the two of them back to Lars, by then under the old man's protection, Helena would have little chance or possibility of taking action.

But it is better to be safe than sorry, so even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, it is better to nip it in the bud.

But is it really that easy?

Gain power on your own... In other words, simply inheriting the old man's organization is not enough.

She had to slowly climb up and gain a position in a large organization, and she had to be on equal footing with her, the slum hostess.

The future is quite difficult. Although I have decided to do something big and stand out, I can only realize the difficulties when I really have a practical goal.

But I have no choice but to do it.

Thinking of this, Murphy could only sigh deeply to vent his depression.

No matter what, we must be thankful that Selena's being taken away is finally over.

Even if it's just a temporary reprieve for me, I can't keep staying tense all the time.

With this thought in mind, Murphy walked back to the restaurant unknowingly - he did not go directly to the small dark room to look for Wood lying there, still out of caution.

As for the group of confidants, they all dispersed after seeing Selena sleeping soundly curled up in his arms.

This was also Murphy's order. He asked them to return to their previous base and wait.

No one knows whether Helena let this side off so easily in order to catch them all in one fell swoop.

Murphy thinks that this possibility is not great, or even that it is impossible, but as he said before, it is better to be safe than sorry.

Although there are still many things to deal with, what I need now is to relax.

So he pushed open the door of the restaurant and walked in, then went straight to Selena's bedroom.

Although it was a bit of a mess outside, surprisingly, there seemed to be no changes in this room.

Murphy looked down and saw Selena seemed to have had a nightmare. Her brows were slightly furrowed, with a frightened expression on her face. Her hands were tightly grasping Murphy's collar without letting go.

Helplessly, Murphy had no choice but to hold her and lie directly on the bed, his movements extremely gentle.

"Good night, my Selena."

Slowly, Selena's cheeks relaxed and she revealed a relaxed smile, but her hand still showed no sign of loosening.

In this regard, Murphy could only sigh helplessly.

Although it was late at night, he still didn't feel like falling asleep.

Chapter 119.5 Intermission

"You should compensate me."

Helena Alvis stood on the balcony of the mansion, watching the intruder leave as she spoke.

If the sight of others being carried away covered in blood was considered an entertainment, then it did happen several times.

But this time, although they were the invaded party, they had to watch the other party leave safely. This was really incredible.

"Compensation? Compensation for what?"

Old Jed, who was standing at the door, said with a smile after hearing Helena's question.

You can see that he is in a good mood.

Helena said in a calm voice, "The courtyard and the men."

"You ate quite a lot this time, so consider these as the extras I was going to collect."

Old Jed shrugged his shoulders, not caring at all about what Helena said. He knew it was just a crude trick by the other party to extort more money.

Helena probably just mentioned it casually. She didn't think Old Jed would be stupid enough to actually compensate her, so she didn't mention it again.

But there is one thing that I cannot remain silent about.

"What should we do with Carnegie's knife?"

Helena glanced back at Old Jed, then looked away.

This time, she did not do it for her own selfish reasons, but because the issue was indeed very important.

Carnegie's scimitar was specially made. It was the reward given to him by Reinhardt after he became the ultimate winner in the sword-fighting tournament held by the Reinhardt family.

Many years have passed since Carnegie got this knife, and even the knifesmith who made this scimitar is unknown whether he is dead or not.

So after Murphy broke the knife, it was difficult for Helena to get a new one, and it was also difficult to find a blacksmith who could make this kind of scimitar.

I could have asked the Reinhardt family's blacksmith to help try to repair it, or simply customize another one.

But with the current turmoil in the capital, and Helena's previous rejection of Patrick's request, this option is basically impossible.

So now this problem can only be blamed on Old Jed. After all, if you trace the root of all this, it was all caused by him asking Helena for help.

Besides, the knife was destroyed by Murphy. The debt owed by the disciple must be repaid by the master.

Besides, Carnegie was his former teacher after all, so he probably wouldn't refuse.

It was precisely because of the reasons mentioned above that Old Jed was stunned after hearing what Helena said.

He thought for a while, then said helplessly: "Well...Okay, I will find a way to help Mr. Carnegie get another one when the time comes, but I don't know how long it will take."

"Go talk to Carnegie yourself."

Helena choked Old Jed without even turning her head. It was obvious that she was not in a good mood.

This made Old Jed scratch his head in embarrassment, after all, he knew why this happened.

But then, as if he remembered something, Old Jed suddenly laughed in a cheesy way.

"Speaking of which, does the bet we made earlier still stand?"

"Then according to the bet, you should lose this time."

Helena was stunned when she heard this, and Old Jed saw very clearly that her body seemed to stiffen for a moment.

Well, it seems that is indeed the case.

After Old Jed finished speaking, she didn't even make a sound for a long time.

After all, she had indeed made a rather large bet in order to get Old Jed to agree to the bet.

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

Old Jed had been gone a long time ago.

The same was true for the figure of the intruder, but Helena Alvis was still standing on the balcony in her coat, looking into the distance.

Unconsciously, she suddenly felt a chill and touched her neck.

There was actually no trace left of the place where the sword had been placed, but she could still feel the remaining cold touch.

Although it was only a short minute, she still put her life in Murphy's hands.

In fact, she had long anticipated all the actions that Murphy would take, such as having a sword held to her neck, which was also a certain result she had expected.

However, even so, even if everything Murphy did was in accordance with her arrangements and not what she wanted.

What he did to Helena was still disrespectful.

This is a fact and cannot be disputed.

So logically speaking, as the person in power, Helena should have killed Murphy at the door of her mansion in order to save her face.

The place had already been surrounded by private soldiers. Although there might be some casualties, she didn't care about that, so it was still quite easy to kill a kid who was a burden.

This has nothing to do with being reasonable or not; those in power are just so willful.

However, she let Murphy off for his disrespectful behavior towards her and even gave him some time to recover.

This was not a spur-of-the-moment decision on her part, nor was it because of the deal she had made with Gerald - although she had agreed to help him put on a play, she had never said that she would not hurt Murphy.

What really made her make this decision that was not in line with the etiquette of those in power was her feelings for Murphy.

In fact, Helena always has an indescribable love for those who exceed her expectations.

Whether it is a man or a woman.

As long as the other person exceeds her expectations, she will think that the other person is worthy of her love.

"While it remains to be seen whether this little fellow named Murphy can achieve status through his own abilities, it would be a shame to get rid of him now."

This was probably what Helena had in mind when she made her decision.

Of course, for Helena, it is a very good thing that there are things in the world that are beyond her expectations.

Because it is a joy for her to make such a being surrender.
