But because of the man's self-esteem and strength, he quickly wiped it off with his muddy hands.
Such a man with such a strong self-esteem threw away his dignity and robbed people in the street.
The reasons behind it seem worth listening to.
The man did not continue to give up on himself.
He stood up from the air wall and suddenly had more respect for Princess Livra.
"Your Highness, thank you for saying this... I don't ask for the Inquisition's forgiveness. I made a mistake, but I hope you can listen to me...! Punish the real lawless lunatics!"
"This is the purpose of my coming here. You tell me, punish evil and promote good. If I can help, I will definitely help."
The man finally let down his guard.
With a sad look on his face, he began to eagerly recount his experiences so far.
He was originally a merchant in the border city of the Kingdom of Orus.
With more than 20 years of hard work, he became wealthy, had a virtuous wife, two sons and one daughter, and his life could definitely be considered affluent.
But since the war broke out, he had to hand over all his money to the lord of the border city.
Men have no complaints at first, but during war
It is only natural that those who can contribute should contribute.
However, the lord had no limit on the so-called "war emergency funds" he collected. The men had already paid in excess of the amount they were supposed to pay, and even went from being wealthy to living in poverty. But the lord still sent people to collect the money, demanding an astonishing amount.
Later, the man accidentally learned that the lord was taking advantage of the war to rob.
He used the excuse of collecting emergency funds to fill his own pockets, but in fact the army had been recuperating and had never left the city to fight the demons.
The man was furious, and took his family to the City Lord's Mansion to protest, demanding that the City Lord not lead troops into battle or return the emergency funds.
But he always underestimated the city lord's arbitrary power...
He is just a businessman, where does he get such a great reputation?
Merchants, in the final analysis, are still just commoners, and are nothing more than insignificant ants in front of the power of the aristocracy.
The city lord came out with a sword in hand, killed his wife, and then turned around and said that the man was "disturbing the morale of the army, not wanting to pay the war emergency fund, and being selfish."
He even threatened him privately...If he didn't want his children and parents to suffer the same fate as his wife, then he should continue to make money and not delay paying the money to the City Lord's Mansion.
From then on, it was no longer possible to stay in the border city.
The man took his children and elderly parents and traveled all the way, going through untold hardships to escape to the capital.
But he was an unfamiliar person in the place, and his children fell ill due to acclimatization. He had no way to make money in a short period of time. Not to mention making money to buy medicine, even his daily food and clothing were not enough.
After all, their money...had long been withheld by the city lord.
There was really no other way, so the man had to put aside his useless dignity and rob money on the streets to pay for his children's medical treatment for the sake of his family.
Having said this, the strong man's clothes were still soaked with tears and he was speechless.
"I don't want to steal money... but I have no choice... How can I survive in this world? It doesn't matter if I live or die, but my family members shouldn't die! Your Highness... I hope you can save them after I am caught by the Inquisition! I know this request is unreasonable, but I see that you are not the kind of unreasonable royal family, so I beg you! ”
Seeing that the man was about to bend his knees and kneel, Livra wanted to stop him, but the air wall was there and she had no way. Even if she told him not to kneel, the man would not listen.
however.
That knee didn't hit the ground in the end.
The man was surprised to find that he could only stand there and could not bend his knees at all.
Xue Feiya was still whistling, as if she was doing nothing.
But when Xia looked at her own Xue Fei, her eyes were filled with tenderness and relief...
Xue Fei, even if you pretend that it has nothing to do with you, the fluctuation of magic power just now cannot be concealed, right...?
Livra noticed Lady Xialet's gaze and seemed to realize something, and nodded to thank Miss Xia.
Then she looked directly at the poor man who was extremely surprised in the air wall.
In the name of the royal family, Orus, I make this promise.
"Don't worry, I will arrange for your children and parents to be properly placed. As for you...I'm sorry to tell you that a crime is a crime, and the court will handle it according to the law. But I will confirm your situation, and if it is true, I will explain to them that the punishment will be reduced, and you can reunite with your family sooner."
"Ah... Thank you, Your Highness the Third Princess...! Thank you for your kindness!"
"No need. And regarding the lord of the border city you mentioned...can you tell me his name?"
Jade will also sparkle sharply.
Having said that, the royal emblem of the sword and shield on Livla's shoulder seemed to show its sharpness, pointing from the royal capital all the way to the smoke of war at the border.
And right now.
A slightly bloated figure squeezed out from the crowd of residents gathered on the street and ran slowly towards this side, panting.
Xue Feiya looked at it absentmindedly...
Oh no…?
Isn't this the unlucky guy who got robbed? He just caught up with me.
So losing weight is very important. Look how fat you are and how slowly you run!
This noble lady was a local aristocrat in the royal capital, so she naturally knew Princess Livra, even though Livra did not know her.
When she saw the princess, the lady no longer cared about her purse or money. She immediately rubbed her hands together and smiled coquettishly, her flattery evident in her words.
"Thank you, Princess, for your help... You took care of such a small matter yourself... Ah! The hero is here too?! This... This is fate! One day I will ask my husband to go to the palace to kneel down and express my gratitude!"
Before the confused Livra could respond, the lady turned smoothly towards the man.
It can be seen that the lady was resentful about being robbed in the street.
And this is in front of the princess and the hero, how can we not show the presence of our family!
"You lowly person! How dare you rob the house of Count Silue? How dare you, a commoner, rob a noble?! You deserve to die! Ouch!!!"
The lady kicked the man hard—but her kick hit the air wall hard.
This kind of pain is probably similar to when your toe suddenly hits the corner of a table, it's a piercing pain!
Xue Feiya cried out in her heart with joy!
She just felt uncomfortable looking at this guy!
Oh right.
Xue Feiya's eyes secretly glanced at the handbag that fell on the ground.
With a grab out of thin air, the stored magic flashed by.
The bag is still there.
But it was originally filled with gold coins, but now it has become empty and deflated...
Xuefeiya continued to whistle a clumsy little tune, which was inaudible because it was out of tune.
But in fact, what she was humming was a pop song from the royal capital.
The name of the music is - Gong Xi Fa Cai!
28. Not as pretty as you
It's not a good thing to take other people's money.
But if you don’t take the money from the arrogant nobles, you’d be a stupid kid!
To be a bad kid or a stupid kid, the choice should be pretty simple, right?
The plump lady with a fawning face happily went to pick up her purse.
She thought she was lucky today. She was robbed but didn't suffer any loss in the end. She even got a blessing in disguise when she saw the princess and said a few good words for the family.
She brushed the dust off her purse in disgust, trying to wipe away the bad luck of the thief who stole her purse.
But as the beating progressed...
The lady's face began to turn pale.
Why does this leather bag feel different?
Open the bag and take a look.
The lady was dumbfounded!
"Ah?! Where's the money? How... How come it's all gone? A whole hundred gold coins...! Damn thief, tell me! Did you hide all the money?!"
"What?! There are actually a hundred gold coins?!"
"..."
It was no one else who spoke.
It was the little girl Xue Feiya who had been whistling while watching the show.
Her exclamation immediately attracted the attention of Livra, Shia and others.
Although I don't know why Miss Xia Ya suddenly exclaimed, she seemed very excited.
How could she not be excited? Xue Feiya had just used storage magic to save money but she didn't see how much was saved.
You should know that the purchasing power of one silver coin in the Kingdom of Orus is equal to one hundred copper coins, and one gold coin is equal to one hundred silver coins.
One copper coin can buy one donut.
The one hundred gold coins...
My goodness...
I saw a whole room of donuts waving at me! !
Feeling the attention from all around her, Miss Xia, with her "sympathy" overflowing, began to pretend to wipe away her tears with the back of her hand.
I'm afraid that except Xia, no one noticed that the moment Xuefei raised her hand to "wipe her tears", a weak [Wind Blade] with extremely high magic control accuracy popped out from her tender palm.
After finishing all this, Miss Xia Ya began to speak in a mumbling voice.
"Oh... poor fat... poor lady, look under your purse, the gold coins must have fallen out during the bumpy ride."
She didn't know who the little girl in front of her was, but when the lady heard her, she quickly raised her purse and took a look.
Good guy...
The seams at the bottom of the bag had been neatly torn into a big hole!
Not only was the money inside gone, but even the purse that was bought with twenty gold coins was gone!
Before the lady could break down and start cursing, Miss Xia Ya pointed with compassion at the crowd of onlookers in the distance.
"The money that fell on the ground at this time must have been snatched away by everyone. Poor lady."
"These untouchables... No, I have to go find them...!"
"Oh, you look kind, madam. You must be thinking of distributing the money to the people as charity. Oh...! You are so kind-hearted. I'm sure the princess who helped you find your wallet will be pleased. After all, she is a good princess who also cares about the people's livelihood."
"..."
It held back the curse words.
The lady's brows twitched wildly.
But when she looked back at the princess who looked confused and naive, and the brave man who seemed to be trying not to laugh for some reason...
The lady had no words to say.
The most important thing is that talkative little girl!!
What does this have to do with her?! Why is she whimpering?
Holding the broken purse tightly, the lady's expression now made it hard to tell whether she was crying or laughing.
She struggled for a long time, and finally managed to squeeze out these words that were almost twisted with anger.
"It's my duty...it's my duty...to share Her Royal Highness's worries..."
I went out today and saw a ghost...
The lady still had a silver coin left in her pocket.
She planned to take a carriage to the church to worship and drive away evil spirits.
