Then he couldn't help but open his mouth and lower his head to vomit, and the filth was scattered all over the floor, and the unpleasant smell drifted out.

The smell of undigested food and wine, the blood of the mercenaries and the smell of feces mixed together, this tavern was simply a hell on earth at this time.

Not to mention Russell and the mercenaries covering their mouths and noses, Dick stood up quickly and unnoticed, and instantly avoided the attack of vomit.

Regardless of this atmosphere, standing there thinking about how to deal with this matter:

In theory, Ivan did kill these six mercenaries.

If he didn't have the identity of a demon hunter, he could be sentenced to hanging.

And Russell was just protecting his companions on the side, and he didn't commit the crime of murder.

So Russell was completely innocent.

It wasn't the first time that a demon hunter drew his sword in a tavern because of a disagreement, but the status of a demon hunter was indeed beyond that of ordinary people, and such things were always lightly passed over in the past.

At most, he would pay a little money.

At present, among the demon hunters, except for the Grizzly School, which has a very good reputation among the people, the Coyote School has a good reputation.

And the Lynx School has a very bad reputation among the people.

When he came out with Fisher before, his attitude clearly showed that he wanted to make a fair judgment on this matter, and Fisher represented the opinion of Odin III.

Although Odin III was only a baron, he represented the position of the nobles of the North.

Although Odin III was not in the castle at this time, if he let Ivan go because of his identity as a demon hunter, it would be a blow to Queen Maeve's face.

So this matter was just a confrontation between the nobles and the demon hunters.

If it is not handled well, it may cause an irreparable gap in the relationship between the two sides.

In this case...

Why should I bring trouble to myself?

Dick thought to himself, can I let the demon hunters pay a little crown to the other side, and then take Ivan back to the demon hunter cult to deal with it, and throw this problem to the leaders of the three sects.

At that time, let the witcher cult communicate with the nobles again.

The losses of the tavern caused by these fights should be compensated by the mercenaries and the witchers together, which should be a solution.

Small people should have the awareness of small people. The greater the power, the greater the responsibility.

Then he looked at the bar: "Boss, come out, it's okay."

An old man in his 50s trembled and emerged from the bar, "Master Dick, I knew you were coming, but I thought you..."

"Thought we would fight again, right?" Dick smiled,

"It's over, don't worry. I will deal with the compensation for the tavern later. Now you clean up the place first."

"Okay." The boss responded, and gently kicked the two waiters behind the bar, "Get up and work."

The two young men came out and started to deal with the scene with cleaning tools.

They kindly cleaned up Ivan's vomit, but did not dare to touch the bodies of the mercenaries.

And took away the broken plates and bowls.

Of course, the broken tables and chairs were just moved to the wall of the tavern and piled up.

After doing this, several people ran back to the bar and squatted down again.

Dick shook his head helplessly and looked at the mercenary: "It is indeed our demon hunters who made a mistake in this matter. I will compensate you for your losses on behalf of the [Demon Hunter Cult].

"And those who have committed crimes will be taken to the Demon Hunter Cult to be punished. Do you think this is okay?"

"Then how many crowns can you give?"

"How many crowns do you need?"

This group of mercenaries are originally a group of desperate people, and the mercenary in front of them is just temporarily living together with other mercenaries, and there is no relationship.

After hearing Dick's words, the mercenary was overjoyed, and suddenly felt that the demon hunter in front of him was so easy to talk to, so he wanted to extort another sum:

"Then I want 50 grams, no, 100 crowns. "

"Deal. "Dick said calmly.

Then he quickly took out 100 crowns from his waist bag and handed it to the other party.

Of course, he would reimburse the money to the [Monster Hunter Cult] later.

The mercenary secretly slapped his thigh, feeling a little regretful. He should have asked for more.

But it was too late to say anything now.

Just as he was about to take the money, the door of the tavern was pushed open again.

The leading young man walked in wearing a fiery red robe, a neat mustache, and holding a golden staff.

And behind him were the rest of the Demon Hunter Cult.

"Wait a minute, you can't accept this money." The man said.

"Who are you? You care about me!"

Seeing Dick take back the purse again, the mercenary regretted it in his heart:

It was just a little bit, just a little bit, how could the lives of these companions be more than crowns?

With these 100 crowns, he can live a luxurious life for a while.

"I am Archbishop Duncan of [Yongyan]. I happened to pass by here and heard your discussion outside the door.

"I don't think this is handled properly, Demon Hunter." Duncan looked at Dick.

"What? You are the Archbishop of [Eternal Flame]? Why are you here?" The mercenary was surprised.

"It's just that Queen Maeve's brother, Prince James, came to invite me to preach."

Dick instantly searched for his memories about the [Eternal Flame] sect.

After a moment, he suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Archbishop Duncan could open the door without hesitation, and the demon hunters behind him also looked up to him.

Because the [Eternal Flame] sect was too powerful.

It is rooted in the vassal states of the Baccus Empire and the southern countries. Even the Changhe City in the Lion Hunting Territory has members of the [Eternal Flame] sect.

[Eternal Flame] is committed to purifying all the sins in the world with holy fire, and often helps the people to exorcise demons and treat diseases for free, which is completely different from the demon hunters who charge fees, so the reputation among the people is very good.

And they were also one of the main forces that defeated the Noldor elves decades ago.

Since then, the Noldor elves basically never step out of the Noldor jungle again.

Although it is a sect, it is a huge force that cannot be ignored. No wonder Duncan is so proud.

"Oh, then what do you think the Archbishop should do?" Dick asked.

"Handle it impartially." Duncan said righteously, "Since this demon hunter has killed someone, he must follow the law and pay the price."

"Then isn't it enough for us to bring him back to the demon hunter cult and judge him in person?"

"Not enough! You demon hunters are rooted in the Stern Raven Territory, so you must obey the laws here, otherwise the law will become a piece of paper, and you will become privileged."

Dick didn't look at the archbishop again, but looked at the people behind him with an inquiring look. Three demon hunters and a female sorceress all shook their heads slightly.

"Then follow the laws of the empire." Dick pondered slightly, "Since Ivan has killed someone, the local sheriff will handle this matter."

"It should be handled by the local sheriff. But he is a demon hunter after all, and his status is different from that of ordinary people.

"So it is difficult for the local sheriff to handle this issue fairly. ”

"I suggest sending him to Stern Raven City and letting Queen Maeve handle it personally. Do you think this is okay?"
