After choosing to leave, they regretted it.

"What's all the fuss? I'm planning to re-edit it after I get back, then print and publish it so everyone has a copy. Isn't this a matter of course for Master? Come, take a look too!"

As she spoke, the girl pulled out a notebook from her pocket and handed it over.

Constantine flipped through two pages and began to sweat profusely.

In his opinion, some of Aize's theories and speeches on military and politics are indeed worth recording, and he has benefited a lot from his contact and learning.

But that's not what's recorded here.

Apart from a few truly valuable speeches, most of the content is irrelevant trivialities.

Christina recorded everything that Aize said and did that she could observe in great detail.

It even includes a lot of curse words, mixed with a large amount of subjective assumptions and crazy jokes of the recorder himself, such as:

"On why the brave Aize is the true God——"

"But he's so handsome—"

"Master, my master, please take me with you—"

Just watching it will increase blood pressure and it is not suitable for children.

Constantine couldn't bear it any longer, so he closed the letter and returned it to the other party:

"You actually memorized a whole book of this kind of stuff!?"

Christina folded her hands, snorted coldly, and her face was full of disdain:

"One? Are you kidding!? I have twenty-three similar books!"

"twenty-three……"

Twenty-four books in two years, doesn't that mean that besides his military duties, this guy just follows Aize with a notebook and takes notes?

This isn't a quote at all; it looks more like a stalker's diary.

If this thing is really compiled and published, my boss's reputation will be ruined.

But what could Constantine do?

Even his own boss couldn't stop this guy from going crazy, what can he do?

forget it.

Some things are better to pretend not to see.

"That's all. The Knights must not mess up their work. Things are not going well lately, and they might take action at any moment. Don't let them down when the time comes."

Christina shrugged nonchalantly.

"I know, you don't need to explain... Oh, Master, there's nowhere to go. I haven't seen you for several days. I'm going to die if I don't see you again! I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to die!"

After saying that, he lay weakly on the edge of the watchtower, sighing and even starting to go crazy.

It was obvious that he didn't listen to what I just said.

Constantine turned his eyes away, not wanting to say anything more, and hurriedly prepared to leave and go back to sleep.

Even though this lady seems unreliable, she should still be able to do things like standing guard...right?

"……Um?"

At this moment, Constantine suddenly became alert.

At the end of the dark, watery plain, a vague shadow appeared.

Then two, three, four... a whole team appeared from the direction of Tafia, with torches lit, and slowly approached the camp.

"Hey, something's happening!"

"You don't have to tell me, it's my turn now!!"

The moment Constantine gave the reminder, Chris had already taken action.

She removed the spear from her back and held it together in her hands. She grabbed the edge of the watchtower and leaped down. The moment she landed, she immediately ordered the knights who were also on duty around her:

"All of you, follow me! You, blow the horn to wake everyone up, quickly!"

He was completely different from the crazy look he had just had.

The state changed so quickly that even Constantine couldn't help but nod his head.

It is also the result of Aize’s teaching.

The gate of the camp was opened, and Christina led her men to rush over and directly intercepted the team that was advancing in the dark.

"Stop! What are you doing?"

After getting very close, I was finally able to see the other person clearly.

This was a team of well-equipped human guards, numbering about a hundred people, escorting dozens of large carriages covered with white cloth.

The leader of the team was a man in his thirties with blue hair and dressed like a butler.

Facing Chris's question, he remained calm, pressed his chest, smiled, and bowed.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Knight. My name is Rufus, and I'm Duke Brian's butler."

Chris frowned, but didn't put down the lance in her hand:

"The Duke's butler? What are you doing here?"

"I have something very important to discuss with the brave lady, Leah. Could Miss Knight inform me?"

Chris sneered:

"Brave Leah? You might be disappointed. I'm afraid that guy's current mental state is not suitable for meeting guests. I...ah——"

Before she could finish her words, Constantine caught up with her, grabbed her cloak and threw her behind, then he took the lead:

"Mr. Rufus, right? Lady Leah has been unwell recently, and we haven't seen her for many days. I'm afraid your trip was in vain."

"This is really unfortunate."

Rufus nodded solemnly upon hearing this, but then added:

"But my matter this time is truly of great importance. Could you please take me to Lady Leah's tent? Even if I can't meet her in person, I would like to report to her in person and express my condolences."

Such a request made Constantine frown.

Brian is one of the great dukes of the kingdom, and he seems to have a good relationship with the brave princess Heidi.

It just seems so.

In fact, this person is a traitor in every sense of the word, with great ambitions and many calculations.

He was involved in many incidents of leaking secrets to the demons. If he hadn't been useful, Aize would have arranged for his accidental death long ago.

Sending someone at this time, and insisting on meeting Leah in person, is most likely a bad intention.

But Constantine wanted to see what he was planning.

He stretched his hands behind him and used gestures to convey some information to Christina. Christina understood and immediately turned back to the camp to prepare.

Constantine continued to face Rufus and said respectfully:

"In that case, let me lead the way. But how do you arrange for these subordinates of yours?"

Rufus smiled.

"Don't worry about it. Leave them here for now. I'll go in with you."

Constantine was a little confused.

I thought he would ask to let these people into the camp and do something unfriendly, but he didn't do that.

What do you want to do?

He didn't show any doubt, he just nodded:

"Okay, please follow me."

"Good work."

Under the leadership of Constantine, Rufus entered the camp where the Knights were stationed.

At this time, Christina, who had returned earlier, had gathered people and made preparations.

If the team outside behaved in a disrespectful manner, she would make sure they paid the price immediately.

But still nothing happened. Rufus just followed Constantine calmly and came to the outside of Leah's tent.

"Lady Leah, Duke Brian of the Kingdom of Arte has sent his steward to see you regarding something important. Lady Leah, are you still awake?"

Constantine shouted, but there was no response. It had been like this for the past few days.

He sometimes wondered if this guy had angered himself to the point of having a cerebral hemorrhage and died inside.

In short, no response.

He looked at Rufus and shook his head.

The blue-haired butler smiled lightly:

"Can you let me come?"

"please."

Constantine said this and retreated behind Rufus.

His hand was already on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and his attention was at its highest point, constantly observing this guy's every move.

As long as the little blue-haired boy made even the slightest movement, he would chop him in half without hesitation.

Rufus simply straightened his clothes and walked to the front of the tent calmly. He smiled and said respectfully:

"Brave Lady Leah, I am Rufus, and I'm here on behalf of my master, Duke Brian, and his family. I'm deeply concerned to hear that Lady Leah is ill. Is it convenient for us to meet now?"

There was still no movement in the tent.

Lufax paused, smiled slightly, and then continued:

"Lady Leah, my master expressed great interest in Lady Doreya's plan to launch an expedition to the Demonic homeland. He is willing to provide you with utmost support and to ensure the success of this expedition at all costs. I wonder if Lady Leah could come out to meet with us to discuss the specific details?"

Chapter 103: Mouse in the Mousetrap

As soon as Rufus finished speaking, there was an immediate reaction in the tent. One could clearly hear the sound of footsteps moving back and forth, the rustling of friction, and the clash of armor.

He seemed to be tidying up his appearance and putting on his armor.

Seeing this, Rufus smiled with satisfaction and nodded slightly.

Constantine was a little confused.

"What... do you want to do?"

"What do you mean, Mr. Knight?"

"Duke Brian wants to fund that kind of ridiculous expedition? Are you kidding me? What the hell are you thinking?!"

The butler smiled, turned around, pressed his chest and said seriously:

"It's certainly reckless, but it's also quite magnificent, isn't it? If successful, the millennia-long feud between humans and demons will come to an end. My master is willing to take the risk for this."

High-sounding bullshit.

Constantine wanted to say something, but the tent in front of him was already opened.

Leia, who had not been seen for many days, finally appeared in sight again. She was wearing a full set of brave armor and holding the holy sword, looking energetic.

It doesn't look like he just shut himself off.

With the arrival of the main character, Rufus ignored Constantine and turned around, smiling and bowing again:

"I have long heard of your esteemed name, Lady Leah. Seeing you today, you are truly as beautiful and valiant as the legends say, worthy of the name and honor of the God's Chosen Hero."

"Hmm...ah, thank you so much..."

After a few days of feeling frustrated, Leia was stunned when she heard some nice words. Then she became a little flattered and couldn't suppress her smile.
