Masked Knight

Chapter 9: [Nicole's decision]

Views:

When Roddy woke up, he felt that no part of his body was not in pain—especially the place where he was kicked by the horse. It felt as if his bones had been broken.

He couldn't even move a little finger.

Rody immediately realized that he had been hit by a restraint technique! Thinking of this, his heart went cold! It was like a bucket of cold water was poured over my head.

Sure enough, he immediately saw Nicole's beautiful face.

But this face was full of anger and hatred at the moment.

Nicole sat on the chair and stared fiercely at Roddy who was lying on the ground. Her whole body was huddled in the soft animal skin chair, wearing a changed and loose robe. When her eyes rested on Roddy's lips, she saw the row of delicate tooth marks on his lips and couldn't help but blush - this damn bastard, how dare...

Of course, this look of shame and anger only flashed across her face. Then she looked at Roddy's yin and yang face, and couldn't help showing a look of disgust on his face...

"Listen! Any questions I ask you now! You'd better answer honestly! Otherwise! I guarantee you will regret coming to this world!" Nicole gritted her teeth in a deep voice.

Rody was speechless and couldn't even nod. I could only look at Nicole stupidly.

"If you agree, just blink your eyes!" Nicole said solemnly: "I don't like other people's rhetoric, so you'd better be more modest. I ask you questions, and you just answer yes or no, that's it! If If yes, just blink. If no, don’t blink. Do you understand?”

Roddy blinked immediately.

"Okay!" Seeing Rody being so honest, Nicole's anger calmed down a little: "Then let me ask you the first question, do you want to die?"

Rody immediately became nervous and widened his eyes, fearing that if he couldn't help but blink his eyelids, it would be over.

"Okay! Since you don't want to die, what exactly do you want to do when you sneak into my house so late at night! Did someone instigate you to come?"

Rody stared, still not blinking.

Nicole frowned and shouted: "You'd better be honest and don't play tricks with me! How dare you sneak in here without anyone's instructions! Tell me! Are you lying?!"

God testifies, Roddy really stared for a long time, his eyes were unbearably dry, so he blinked twice involuntarily as a conditioned reflex - this was good, Nicole immediately became furious, and with a flick of his finger, a ray of fire flew out When Roddy came over, he couldn't even scream, his head was on fire immediately! Even my eyebrows were almost burnt!

Fortunately, Nicole didn't really intend to do anything. The flame only burned for a moment and then went out in a hurry. Even so, Roddy's scalp was still burned in some places, and hair loss was inevitable.

The beautiful girl in front of him at this moment no longer has any cuteness in Rody's eyes. If Rody could open his mouth, then he would have scolded her eighteen generations of ancestors!

"You bastard! Do you still dare to be dishonest?!" Nicole said coldly: "If I don't give you some color... you... you think I'm easy to bully..." When the word "bully" comes up , Nicole's face turned red involuntarily again.

Now Roddy's eyes widened quickly and he didn't dare to blink his eyelids anymore.

"Okay! I'll continue to ask you now! Listen carefully! It's best to think clearly before answering!" Nicole's face darkened.

Roddy blinked immediately.

Nicole sneered, raised her left hand slightly, and snapped her fingers in mid-air. As a faint light rose up in her hand, Roddy immediately felt that his whole body relaxed, and the restraint technique had been lifted.

"Now let me ask you a question! Why did you sneak into my house in the middle of the night!"

Rody's eyes were rolling around, and just when he was about to make up a reason, Nicole's face darkened, and then another burst of fire came over. Fortunately, Rody could move and rolled on the spot, avoiding the blast, but the flames Still burned a hole in his pants.

"You'd better be honest! I forgot to tell you! I'm a high-level warlock! I can use physiognomy! You said you're not lying and I can tell at a glance! So you'd better not make me angry!" Nicole hated it! road.

Rody was startled and did not dare to hide anything at the moment. He told them about the sneak attack on the road outside the city at night and the reason why he sneaked in to save his companions.

Nicole nodded: "Okay! Then tell me, why did you attack my carriage?"

Rody smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know either! But now I suspect that we may have found the wrong target, because the people in the bar told us that our target should have a third-level swordsman, but you only have a groom." !”

Nicole pondered for a moment and said: "I understand, I happened to take that path tonight, and the time was coincidental, so you idiots actually dared to attack me!! Don't you!"

Roddy quickly shouted: "I didn't want to attack you! Oh my God! Attack the Imperial Tulip Family! I'll give you a few more heads!"

Nicole chuckled slightly sarcastically: "Tulip family? I didn't expect you actually know the name of our family!"

Rody sighed: "Of course I know. Of course I know about the empire's home of the God of War."

Nicole nodded. Roddy's words quite catered to her mood, so her tone softened a little and continued to ask: "So, who are you! What do you do?"

Rody was just about to make up a few lies, but when he saw Nicole looking directly at him, he immediately did not dare to lie anymore. He thought for a while and said: "Miss, I really don't want to lie, but my identity is relatively Special, if I tell you my identity, then my future is over!"

"Oh?" A strange smile appeared on Nicole's lips: "Then, tell me, who are you!"

"No! I can't say." Rody shook his head: "Unless you promise me, you won't send me to the police station! In addition, I am willing to be punished by you for my behavior tonight!"

"Punishment!!" Nicole suddenly became angry: "Your behavior tonight is not an exaggeration even if you die a hundred times! You actually bargained with me! Have you forgotten that you were... rude to me... !”

Seeing that Nicole was showing signs of going crazy again, Roddy quickly took two steps back and prepared himself.

Fortunately, Nicole returned to normal immediately. She held back her temper and said harshly: "Okay! I won't send you to the police station, I will punish you personally! Now, tell me your name ! And who are you!”

"My name is Roddy, and I am a student of the Imperial College - a civilian student." Roddy's face was a little red - after all, as a student of the Imperial College, he actually ran out of the city at night to block roads and rob. This is really not the case. A glorious thing.

"A student from Imperial College?" Nicole was a little surprised now.

"Yes, I am still a preliminary warrior." After saying this, Roddy couldn't help but puff up his chest: "I will take the swordsmanship test next month. By then, I will be an official warrior!"

Nicole seemed to have no interest in this topic, and her face had darkened: "Okay! Since you are also a student of Imperial College, then you tell me..." Her tone gradually became gloomy, and she said slowly word by word: "Do you know my brother Seth? Tell me! Where has he gone now!!!"

Roddy made a grimace: "I don't know your brother - oh, in fact, I really didn't know him before tonight!"

"Then you saw him tonight?!" Nicole immediately sat up straight in her chair: "Then do you know where he went?"

Rody nodded: "Yes, he seemed to have told me."

Nicole had already stood up from the chair: "Tell me! Where did he go!"

Rody rolled his eyes and whispered: "I can tell you, but you must agree to one condition!"

Nicole was stunned, and suddenly said angrily: "How dare you negotiate terms with me!"

Rody quickly lowered his head and whispered: "I'm not doing it for myself! I'm doing it for my friends! In fact, he was caught by you tonight, and it was all because of me. He was doing it to help me raise funds." I don’t dare to ask you to forgive me, but I just want to ask you to forgive him! I am willing to bear your punishment alone.”

Nicole seemed a little surprised. She looked at the big boy in front of her who was one or two years younger than herself, and seemed a little surprised by his courage. In fact, what happened tonight made her a little overwhelmed with anger. And when he thought of being scorned by this man with a yin and yang face, he couldn't restrain his anger. But when she calmed down, Nicole suddenly realized: the little thief in front of her was still just a child after all, a big boy about the same age as her younger brother, and even one or two years younger than herself!

Now, although this boy looks a little timid and scared, he still bravely takes on his responsibilities, and would rather bear all the punishment alone for the safety of his friends.

Thinking that his brother is so cunning, he has never shown such courage as a man, never! Even once! What made her even more angry and crazy was that the guy actually left a letter and ran away from home alone! He actually abandoned his family's honor and responsibility just like that! !

Nicole couldn't help but sigh and said feebly: "Okay! I promise you, I can let that friend of yours go! And I won't pursue that matter anymore, but you have to tell me where my brother went! "

Roddy immediately recounted the conversation he had with Seth that night in detail. Before he could finish speaking, Nicole roared angrily: "This idiot! Him! Him! He actually abandoned The family abandoned his responsibilities and went on a trip! He just left!

The more Nicole talked, the angrier she became, and she almost fainted from anger.

Rody looked at Nicole carefully and said nothing. God knew that if he said the wrong thing at this time, he might draw this beautiful girl's anger onto himself.

Fortunately, Nicole's anger went away just as quickly as it came. She took a few steps back and forth, then clapped her hands, and several guards walked in outside the door.

Nicole gave her order coldly.

"In view of the security breach tonight, the captain of the guard, Marin, is suspended immediately! Go back to the army tomorrow! The lowest level of samurai can easily sneak into my home. You, the captain of the guard, can only use the word "bastard". Come describe it!" Nicole's voice was cold and majestic. One of the guards immediately turned pale, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead. He must be the unlucky captain of the guard.

Nicole didn't look at him at all and continued: "Tie this guy up and throw him into the woodshed with the guy I caught tonight! I heard that the kitchen is short of a handyman. Arrest me tomorrow." The guy who came is sent to the kitchen! And this guy..." Nicole glanced at Roddy in front of her and said coldly: "Starting tomorrow, he will be my groom!"

Rody argued loudly: "But you promised to let my friend go! And... I... I still want to go to the academy..."

Nicole said coldly: "Shut up! I'm already too angry tonight! You said you would accept any punishment from me! I am announcing your punishment now! From now on, you will act as my servant! This is Punishment for you!"

"Okay!" Roddy lowered his head and thought for a while - anyway, tonight's affairs have been messed up. Even if he goes back to school, he will have no money to pay tuition, and in the end he will not be able to continue his studies. But he still wanted to fight for a chance for his friend: "But you promised to let my friend go!"

Nicole raised her chin: "So what?"

"You don't mean what you say!" Roddy said angrily.

Nicole smiled softly, glanced at Rody, and said calmly: "I am a woman! Hasn't anyone told you: In this world, it is a woman's prerogative to speak your mind!"

Roddy could no longer say a word - he was still young after all, and a young man didn't even have any understanding of women.

Nicole thought for a while and then said to her subordinates: "Also, go to the college and inform the school that my brother has been sent to another province by the family to rest due to some health reasons and needs to take a break from school! About... Well, three months. , he will go back in three months."

Having said this, Nicole gave Roddy a meaningful look.

Roddy couldn't help but shudder.
