Faro arrives at the prison where Vera is being held.

As expected, the guards blocked him.

After seeing the face of the person coming, a soldier said with a complicated expression, "Master Faro, you can't come in. Please don't make things difficult for us."

Faro looked serious, as if he had something important to do and didn't want to waste his breath.

He showed the platinum badge in his arms.

"Night Hunter, I have important business to attend to. Please don't get in the way."

When the guards saw the badge, their faces turned solemn and they quickly stepped aside to let Farrow in.

When Faro walked away, the two guards couldn't help but sigh:

"I didn't expect that Master Faro was so promising at such a young age. He became a hunter at such a young age and hid for so many years. Everyone thought he had no extraordinary talent."

"Hey, isn't there a senior executive from the imperial capital coming to inspect today? Master Faro is not going to see her, right?"

"It's very possible."

However, the conversation between the two did not reach Farrow's ears.

He hurried to the deepest cell because he could be discovered at any time.

Following the route in memory, I finally arrived at Vera's prison door.

She was sitting in the corner with her legs folded.

Her skin was as pale as paper, her blue eyes, which should have been bright, were as dim as fading stars, her nose was small, her lips were bloodless, and her frosty skin gave her a morbid beauty.

Even in such a strict prison, the shackles on the girl's hands and feet were still there, and the blood marks on her ankles and wrists were heartbreaking to see.

The girl noticed him and looked up in surprise.

"Is it you...?"

The star-like eyes seemed to shine brighter at that moment.

"I've seen you on the street...why are you here."

"Aren't you...afraid of me?"

Faro's face, which had been serious until now, relaxed at this moment.

Showing a warm smile.

"I'm not afraid of you."

"Because I know you are not a witch, it's just that people's fear and ignorance have given you a stigma."

They were just two short sentences, but they were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, and the ripples they created echoed in Vera's heart.

It wasn't that Faro meant to say this, but it was how he really felt when he was playing the game.

"I'll get you out, so don't worry."

Just as Faro was about to take out the spell scroll he bought on the black market and prepare to destroy the prison silently.

The sound of armor rubbing against each other reached his ears.

Both of them felt a tightness in their hearts at the same time.

At the end of the corridor, a burly knight appeared, wearing black armor and carrying wolf-head shoulder guards.

Farrow secretly and quickly put away the scroll.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

The knight asked with a frown.

Farrow regained his previous expression and replied seriously: "Night Hunter, now is my interrogation time."

As he said this, he showed the badge in his arms.

When the knight saw his badge, he had to be convinced.

"To be on the safe side, I need to report this to the executive officer for confirmation."

Just as the knight was about to return to report, a pleasant voice appeared in the prison.

"What do you want to report, Robert?"

A tall figure walked down slowly.

Claire was wearing stiletto heels, and her shiny black leather boots were fastened with buckles, fitting perfectly with the curves of her legs.

The left foot is wearing short boots that just reach above the calf, and the right leg is wearing long boots that do not go above the knee. The fair skin above is wrapped in suspenders and black stockings, showing her beauty and sharpness to the extreme.

The executive officer's leather jacket is only draped over the shoulders, with black hollow suspenders and corset underneath, supporting two plump and snow-white breasts.

Claire held the long sword at her waist with her hands in black lace gloves, reflecting a cold light.

After seeing the person standing next to Robert.

She was startled at first, then she opened her cherry lips and smiled, which looked very ominous to Faro.

The ruby-like eyes narrowed slightly, seemingly full of smiles.

But Faro could feel that it was not a friendly smile at all!

It was almost like a predator sizing up her prey.

"Hello~"

"Lord Farlow Walsh."

Farlow's mind exploded.

ps: I'm a newbie, please give me more collections and likes. It would be even better if you could give me more comments.

ps: (I’ll tell you a secret. If you post a comment, the author will be happy all day.

Chapter 5: The Profound Scholar

How to do how to do!

Why is she here? !

Facing Claire's smile, although Faro remained calm, he was actually panicking.

Logically speaking, Ainburg is indeed under Claire's jurisdiction, but in the plot she should be in the imperial capital at this time.

hateful!

Even though he had tried very hard to avoid contact with Claire, he still couldn't avoid meeting her.

Could this be a correction made after the world line changed?

Faro stood sideways, secretly hiding his right hand that was shaking uncontrollably.

If this continues, he would most likely fall into the predetermined disastrous ending, that is, imprisonment and the confiscation of his property!

The strong desire to survive made him calm down, and his brain was working at high speed, thinking about how to escape.

"Hello, Miss Claire. I have heard a lot about you."

He gave Claire a gentle smile and a perfect salute.

Everything looks very natural.

"We probably haven't met yet."

Faro tried his best to make his every move seem real, as if he was a noble who hid his identity as a hunter.

Because of the special nature of their job, hunters often need to hide their true identities.

It is indeed normal if some nobles are secretly night hunters.

However, what he didn't know was that the appointment of Night Hunters was entirely at the discretion of the Empire's major executive officers.

What he didn't know was that the vast majority of Einburg's night hunters were managed by Claire.

Farlow, completely unaware of the situation, continued to perform naturally.

"Oh~ It seems that Master Faro has become a night hunter at such a young age."

Claire saw the platinum badge in his arms.

He then paid attention to Vera in the cell and instantly understood what was going on.

The smile on his face grew deeper.

It seems that this little white rabbit that I have taken a fancy to is not as timid as the rumors say.

Haha~

What an interesting prey.

"Robert, take the guest to the reception room. I want to talk to Master Farlow alone."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the knight immediately led the way.

After arriving at the reception room, the knight was standing guard at the door, and they were the only two people left in the huge room.

At this moment, she finally stopped hiding her feelings and looked at Faro with an extremely aggressive look.

As Claire approached step by step, Faro had no place to retreat.

"Hey... Miss Claire, what are you doing?!"

Faro had no time to react.

Claire pushed him against the wall.

This action startled Farlow.

Claire's gloved right hand was resting on the wall next to Faro's ear, and her tall, mature body almost covered Faro.

I can even smell her fragrance.

The warm fragrance mixed with feminine charm penetrated into Faro's nostrils, like a sweet and forbidden fruit, tempting him to sink into Claire's arms.

Faro's face turned even redder, and his beautiful eyes turned into dizzy circles.

Claire placed her lips close to Farrow's ear and spoke in a low and cold voice:

"I know that your identity as a hunter is a fake."

"I know all the Night Hunters in Einburg, and I know very well that this badge is not yours."

"Pretending to be a hunter and sneaking into the prison was all to save that girl, right?"

When Faro heard this, he shuddered.

The confused brain calmed down a little in an instant.

"Yeah... so what."

"Want to threaten me with the crime of pretending to be a hunter? Go ahead."

"But I will never bow to you!"

The boy's clear voice echoed, and Claire liked this kind of voice very much.

I'm even more looking forward to what sound he'll make when he cries.

Faro was thinking in his mind that Claire had great power, but he was sure that Claire would not hurt him.

Therefore, Faro's answer was very tough. Don't try to force him into a ruined ending this time!

"I can let you and that girl go."

Eh?

Faro thought he had heard it wrong. How could she be so kind?

"I can let you and her leave, and I won't pursue anything." Seeing Farrow's suspicious look, Claire chuckled and repeated it.

"So, what are the conditions?"

Of course, Faro didn't think that Claire would give him the opportunity for nothing.
