"Injury? What injury?"
Sas pretended very well, really looking like he had no idea.
"Could it be that those villains abused her?!"
Thaz looked indignant.
"What a disgusting fellow!"
"really."
As a former noble lady, Xi Ruiya has seen too many hypocritical nobles like this.
Some nobles like Saz even disdain to pretend.
Because in his opinion, it didn't matter even if he was exposed, because these commoners wouldn't dare to do anything to him as a noble, not to mention that he was a noble gold-level professional.
"So, can you return my niece to me?"
Thaz looked a little impatient.
"Or do you have any connection with those villains?"
Having said this, Saz had already placed his right hand on the hilt of the sword.
"Heh~ upstart."
The voice that Xi Ruiya did not deliberately lower was heard by Shaz.
"Watch your mouth, maid!"
Sas's face was extremely gloomy.
As a family of earls, the biggest shortcoming of the Calis family is that it has no foundation.
Because the Calis family obtained the title of earl by expanding the territory from the generation of Saz's grandfather.
In fact, such an achievement could only earn him a baronship, or at most a viscount.
However, it happened that the Patras Empire was in a new round of development at that time. In order to stimulate the enthusiasm of the people of the empire, each of the first batch of pioneering knights was awarded a title one level higher than the actual one.
Therefore, many old nobles felt that the Calis family was simply an adopted earl, just a lucky nouveau riche with no background.
Therefore, what Thaz hated most was hearing people say that the Calis family were lucky and upstarts.
"Cyria Scawen, my name."
Xi Ruiya said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Skawen?"
Thaz narrowed his eyes.
"Oh~ I remember now, that earl family that was wiped out by the curse actually still has survivors?"
Saz looked at Xi Ruiya in some surprise.
"Oh~ How pitiful."
Although he said this, Sas's tone became much more serious.
Because Cirilla is a noble like him, especially now that Cirilla is the only legitimate heir of the Skawen family, it can be said that she fully represents the Skawen family itself, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the current head of the Skawen family.
"So you're going to stop me? Stop an uncle from taking her niece back?"
Sas smiled like a man who had succeeded in his conspiracy.
"Do you dare to do it here?"
Xi Ruiya's words hit the sore spot of Thaz, making his face even gloomier.
When he came, he naturally asked about the origins of this restaurant.
The feeling that the proprietress Olivia gave him was just two words: mysterious.
And according to the information he had received, this proprietress had at least the strength of the peak of the Gold Rank, and was not someone he could defeat.
"You can't stop an uncle from taking his niece away."
There was already a hint of threat in Sas's voice.
"The oldest of Lucy's injuries is three years old."
Lisha's voice was filled with anger.
"so what?"
Saz looked at the innocent girl with a disdainful smile on his face.
"Without me, what can she do? A ten-year-old girl, do you think she can survive? Maybe you plan to find someone to adopt her? But who would dare?"
What Thaz said was very realistic, that is, Lucy must have a foster parent, and the person who adopts her must be strong enough not to be afraid of Thaz and the entire Earl's family behind him.
"Adventurer's Guild."
Ilsa put a hand on Lisha's shoulder to prevent her from getting angry and getting angry.
"Yeah, that's a good idea."
Thads didn't seem to care.
Lisha didn't quite understand why Thaz seemed indifferent, but Ilsa and Shiriya both understood why.
Because once Lucy left here and entered the orphanage run by the Adventurer's Guild, Saz would have too many ways to take Lucy away from the orphanage.
The simplest way is to find a family that has nothing to do with the Calis family and find a way to adopt Lucy, and then secretly use that family as a medium to continue to control Lucy.
There are countless similar ideas, and even the Adventurer's Guild can be on guard against them. After all, growing up in an orphanage and then becoming a receptionist for the guild is only one of the possibilities. The guild still hopes that these children can be adopted by good families and feel the warmth of their family.
The idea that You Ze proposed before was just a greater possibility.
"Lucy, I came here in person to find you. It's not polite to hide behind someone."
The hypocrisy in Saz's words was about to overflow.
Lucy trembled when she heard what Thaz said, but she still walked out from behind Lisha slowly.
"uncle..."
Lucy stared at Thaz, her expression surprisingly calm.
Lisha was glaring at Satsu so she didn't notice, but Ilsa did.
There was no anger, fear, or terror in Lucy's eyes, only a calmness like dead water.
"How long are you going to stay here? Do you think you can hide here forever?!"
There was impatience in Saz's words.
"Humph! If it weren't for me, you would have died long ago!"
"uncle..."
After hearing this, Lucy lowered her head and walked towards Saz without saying a word.
"Lucy!"
Lisha held Lucy's hand.
"Do you really want to go there?"
"..."
Lucy said nothing, just lowered her head.
"Nosy guy."
Sassu clicked his tongue and looked at Lisha with unfriendly eyes.
"Lucy! You have to refuse anything you don't want to do! Nothing is necessary!"
Lisha’s tone was a little harsh.
She spoke more like her usual Ilsa now.
"Can't refuse."
Lucy finally spoke.
She raised her head, her lifeless eyes devoid of any emotion.
"Nothing is ever impossible to refuse!"
Lisha said to Lucy solemnly.
"As long as you are prepared to bear the cost, you can refuse anything."
"..."
Lucy looked at Thads.
She saw Thaz was smiling.
That smile is dangerous.
"Ha~"
Saz suddenly took a step back.
"I can give you a day's buffer. I'll be back at eight tomorrow morning, and hopefully you'll have said your goodbyes by then."
After saying this, Saz calmly left Dragon's Breath.
Lucy didn't move forward because of Thaz's departure.
"What does he mean?"
Lisha didn’t understand why Sazu retreated like that.
"I have a bad feeling."
Ilsa bit her fingers.
Thaz definitely had some conspiracy, but she couldn't see it yet.
"Let's discuss it."
Shiriya glanced at Freya who seemed to be in a daze, and said to Lisha and Ilsa.
"Ok!"
Lisha nodded.
"it is good."
Ilsa also knew that this matter required everyone's consultation.
At noon, everyone in Dragon's Breath gathered together except the proprietress Olivia.
Xi Ruiya told Mei Lilu and Ai Lan about the matter, and they were both very angry after hearing it.
After all, it doesn't seem like Sassi is a good person.
"I've heard two more things about Thaz."
Shiriya spoke first.
"The first is that it is said that Sas's younger brother, Sale Calis, was more talented than Sas and reached the Gold Rank earlier than Sas. The head of the Calis family at that time, who was Sas and Sas's father, actually intended to pass the position of head to Sas. Unexpectedly, Sas died in the demonic disaster three years ago, and not long after, the head of the family also fell seriously ill and died. Sas's wife couldn't accept her husband's death, so she committed suicide with the weapon her husband had used. In the end, Sas became the head of the family, and became a Gold Rank professional two years ago."
"The second thing is about Thaz's character. In the territory of the Calis family, Thaz is synonymous with cruelty and brutality. The people in the entire territory are suffering. It is said that there was a kind adventurer who wanted to assassinate Thaz, but he failed in the end. After Thaz killed him, his body was hung in front of the city gate until it turned into bones and shattered into pieces, and no one dared to collect his body."
After listening to Shiriya's story, Ilsa spoke first.
"It's hard to say whether Saleh died in the demonic disaster."
"Did Saleh's wife really commit suicide?"
Meililu frowned.
"Can such a person be a lord?"
Ai Lan felt very uncomfortable.
She doesn't like people who have no respect for life.
"So after all, all the injuries on Lucy's body were caused by that Sassa!"
Lisha slammed the table so hard that it almost broke apart.
