Summoning the Holy Sword
Chapter 98: Home of the Heart
Frank can swear that he has never seen the man in front of him. After all, Rhode's characteristics are so obvious that it is almost impossible for those who have seen him to forget. However, it was this man he had never seen before, who screamed out his identity, which immediately made Frank feel a little bit chilled.
How does he know who he is? In the Kellys family, he is just an heir without any status. Even in the aristocratic circles of Basse, there are probably few people who can know his name. How did this young man know?
Although frightened, Frank was in a hurry to re-maintain the smile on his face, and responded casually.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Rhodes would know me, but I was a little surprised."
"It's nothing to be surprised, after all, Basel and my hometown are not far away. I have met with you several times, but it seems that Mr. Frank has forgotten it. But this is no wonder, after all, there is nothing in everyone Communication, but ... "
The expression on Rhodes' face was still so cold, but there was a hint of taunt in his eyes.
"The nobility's circle is really small, isn't it?"
"You make sense, Mr. Rhodes."
Hearing Rhode's words, Frank was a little dubious. He had also inquired about Rhode, knowing that he came from the eastern mountain plains, although it was said that it was not far away from the Basel where the Kellis family was located. But the closure of that place was well-known from afar, and even the Principality of Muen was not very familiar with that area, let alone Basel. Although the nobles of the two sides have occasionally exchanged, but the number of times is very small, I have indeed seen the noble guests of Dongfangshanyuan several times, but ... Is there no such person?
But now, it wasn't just doubt that lurked in Frank's mind, but still a little anxiety and panic. As someone who always likes to keep a low profile, Frank is a little flustered at this moment. After all, Rod did not hesitate to reveal his identity, which made Frank very disturbed. He could even feel the doubtful gaze cast from the old president and Serek. But now, there is no retreat.
So he could only continue to smile and replied bitterly.
"I really didn't expect it. In fact, my father ordered me to travel for a while and I learned more, and I learned swordplay from a young age. I was a little small, so I planned to add some experience to the mercenary regiment, but I didn't expect it to happen recently. That happened ... I had to do this in order for the mercenary regiment to survive. "
"A noble heir is going to be a mercenary?"
Hearing here, Rhode looked at him curiously.
"Mr. Kelly would not agree with such a thing, after all ..."
"I did not intend to win the consent of my father. I know that the mercenaries' impression of the aristocracy is not good, but based on my contacts since then, I feel that the mercenaries are not as bad as rumors. And , I also have a deep relationship with my companions, in order to be able to help them, even if I disobey a father's order once, it is not a big deal. "
"So it is."
Rod nodded and released Frank's hand.
"Hope you can succeed."
"Thank you for your blessing, Mr. Rhode. I also hope that your mercenary regiment can go further and further."
Frank nodded gracefully to Rhodes, then immediately turned away.
"Boy, do you know each other?"
Until the door was closed again, the old president frowned, looking suspiciously at Rhodes.
"I used to be far away, I know him, he doesn't know me."
Rhode responded with ease, and then he asked, pretending not to care.
"But I didn't expect him to come here as a mercenary."
"He has been here for a year."
Said the old chairman.
"I saw a nobleman at first, but I didn't intend to agree. Later, the boy was very talkative, able to endure hardships, and had good skills. I recommended him to the Emerald Eye after the mercenary evaluation. In the previous battle with the undead, the head and deputy head of the Emerald Eye were both wounded and died. Now in the entire mercenary regiment, only this boy has taken the shot. It seems that he is doing well. "
a year ago? Actually, you have been thinking about it so early. You can play in the kingdom of light.
At the introduction of the old president, Rhodes raised a brow, but he didn't say much. At this time, the old president was obviously a bit tired. Even so many things happened in the association. He was really busy enough as a director.
"Okay, boy, are there anything else you can do? Just go away if it's okay, I'm tired and I need to rest."
"Wait, Mr. President, about the rewards for completing my mission this time ... According to the agreement, as long as I can safely bring all the people out, you will pay me twice as much. Now I have brought everyone in full Came back, and because of this, my subordinates were injured, so you should express your sincerity, right? "
"You ... your boy, you can't wait for such a big deal in the association now? Are you anxious for that money to buy a coffin?"
"This is here, that is here, of course, I know the current situation of the association, but this is not the reason why you refuse to pay me. Well, according to our previous agreement, please give me the compensation."
"You greedy **** !!!"
At that moment, the angry roar of the old president passed through the entire Deep Stone City.
Annie opened her eyes.
She stared blankly at the white ceiling in front of her eyes, then turned her head and looked out the window. At this moment it was evening, and night fell, and only the radiant light of the candlelight brought a little warmth and peace in the room.
"I am ..."
Anne sat up, shook her head, soft beds, and a comfortable room. The smell of weeds and flowers came from the air, which made her brain awake a lot.
"By the way ... I fight the death knight, and then I ..."
Thinking of this, Annie's face suddenly turned white, she seemed to think of something, her body shivered involuntarily.
Me, am I transformed?
In front of the head?
In front of sisters?
I really, did I really do this?
"Well."
The sudden knock on the door surprised Annie, and she could not help but cry.
"Who?!"
"It's me, Li Jie, you finally woke up? Annie?"
Along with the voice, Li Jie went into the room with the steaming soup and saw Annie's look, and she felt a little peace of mind at once.
"Great, you finally woke up, Annie. How are you feeling? You have been in a coma for almost two days? You must be hungry, this is soup made by Uncle Walker, I think it must be very suitable for your taste. "Speaking, Li Jie put the bowl on the table next to her, and Annie was uncharacteristic and didn't cheer up and jump up like before. Instead, she grabbed the quilt and blocked her body and face. Only the eyes remained Flashing, looking at Li Jie with uneasy eyes.
"Sister, sister ... aren't you afraid?"
"Ok?"
Upon hearing Annie's inquiries, Li Jie turned her head curiously and looked at Annie in doubt.
"Me, I'm transformed, right."
However, Annie didn't notice Li Jie's gaze at all, she just stuttered and whispered.
"Did I become like that? Sister? Everyone must be scared, I ......... Yes ..."
"Half-beast, right?"
Hearing the word, Annie's body tightened tightly, her hands clutched at the sheet, and she lowered her head, not even daring to look at Li Jie's eyes. She was now uneasy and had no idea what to do. It was her fault. She should have confessed to everyone from the beginning, but she didn't dare. Because the old regiment had told her that her identity needed to be kept strictly confidential, and that Anne had seen the fear and disgust that those people in the regimen had shown after they had transformed themselves. Is Lijie the same? Where's the leader?
Will they stop me and drive me away?
Just as Anne thought about it suddenly, she felt a hand on her head and stroked the girl's hair gently.
"What a fool."
Li Jie stroked Annie's head gently, staring at the girl who was shaking with fear with a gentle smile. She didn't tremble when she faced the death knight, but now she looked as if the end of the world had arrived.
"Frankly, everyone is a bit surprised. But we are absolutely not afraid? I do n’t, Marin does n’t, neither Mr. Rod. Do n’t think about it, you blocked such a dangerous enemy and saved us, we thank you You are too late, how could you be afraid of you? "
"Sister Li Jie ..."
Annie raised her head, staring at Li Jie, her green eyes were clear and transparent, as if she could shoot all the way into the heart. But in the face of Annie's gaze, Li Jie did not escape, but quietly withstood her gaze. After a while, Annie's face finally reappeared the pure and vibrant smile of Ping Yueli. Then she plunged into Li Jie's arms.
"I like everyone the most!"
"Anne, Annie?"
Looking at the girl who hugged herself and couldn't help shaking her body, Li Jie's face showed a bitter smile. Don't say, look at Annie's current appearance, if there is another tail flickering tail, it is not very Wolf, it looks like ...
"However, Annie, do you need to be prepared?"
"Hey?"
Hearing here, Annie's movement stopped.
"You violated Mr. Rhode's order, which made Mr. Rhodes very angry. On the way back, he said more than once to punish you, so you need to be mentally prepared. You must know, Mr. Rhodes The punishment is terrible. "
"This, this ..."
When she heard Li Jie's words, an embarrassed expression appeared on Annie's face, and just when she didn't know what to say, suddenly a low protest came from her stomach.
"Goo ..."
