Leaving the garden, Colin was still struggling with Queen Elsa's true intentions in what she said to him.
He also didn't notice a half-elf maid walking towards him.
The maid was holding a large potted plant in her hand, her sight was just covered, and she didn't notice Colin.
It wasn't until the two almost collided that Ke Lin realized that there was someone in front of him. He quickly dodged and dodged, but the maid screamed out in fright.
"ah!"
"Feel sorry."
"No, no, Lord Viscount, it's my fault!" The maid obviously recognized Colin, put down the potted plant quickly, and kept apologizing.
"It's okay." Colin waved his hand and was about to leave.
But after walking a few steps, he seemed to remember something, and called the maid again: "Are you in charge of taking care of that garden?"
"Yes, Lord Viscount."
"Did you cultivate those blood roses?"
"No, I don't have the ability." The maid shook her head, "This kind of blood rose is specially bought from outside."
"Then you know, where did you buy those blood roses in the garden? I really like those flowers, so I want to buy some myself."
"The Hyacinth Merchant Guild." The maid said a name that Colin was familiar with, "It's located in the slave market in the west of the city. This chamber of commerce can cultivate the best blood roses in Silvermoon City."
"OK, thanks."
"You're too polite." The maid saluted, seeing that Colin had no other orders, she left.
Ke Lin looked at the back of the maid and suddenly fell into deep thought.
There is indeed a connection between this strange Queen Aisha and the Hyacinth Chamber of Commerce.
But is the connection between them really just a blood rose
Does Queen Elsa know the Sith? Or even Prince Okamoto
Could it be that Prince Okamoto is actually the supporter behind the second prince and the family
But why did the troll empire extend its hand into the half-elf kingdom
What benefits can they gain here
Moreover, Sith, a half-elf, why would he attach himself to a troll
…
A series of questions swirled in Colin's mind.
He suddenly felt that the current situation in Silvermoon City was really interesting.
Colin showed an excited smile, turned and walked to his residence.
However, even though there were so many doubts, he also figured out one thing.
That is why Prince William was met at the gate of the Hyacinth Chamber of Commerce.
I am afraid that the secret connection between Queen Aisha and the Hyacinth Chamber of Commerce has been noticed by the Mordiveh family.
That's why they came to search the house under the pretext of tax inspection.
Colin has already told Prince William about the secret connection between the Hyacinth Chamber of Commerce and the trolls, and now it's up to him to see if the prince can pry something useful out of Sith.
Thinking all the way, walking all the way, Colin soon returned to his residence.
Then, he noticed a pretty, petite half-elf girl at his door.
"Knight Telde, who is this lady?" Colin asked suspiciously.
"Master Viscount, this is Cathy, the slave girl that Prince William personally sent over just now, saying it is a gift for you."
It was only now that Colin remembered this incident. At that time, he thought that Prince William was just being polite, but he did not expect that he actually sent a half-elf slave girl.
This half-elf slave girl is about 1.6 meters tall, thin and small, as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind.
However, she has a delicate and beautiful face, especially those big amber eyes and long pointed ears, which look very cute.
She was wearing a simple green dress, and on her left ankle was wearing an iron ring that symbolized the status of a slave. She exuded a mysterious and weak temperament, which made people feel pity.
Seeing that Colin was looking at her, Cathy took a step forward with a blushing face, bowed and said, "Master Viscount, His Royal Highness Prince William asked me to follow you from now on."
Knight Telde also handed over a document at the right time: "My lord, this is her slave contract. His Royal Highness has already signed it. As long as you sign your name on it, this female slave will be yours."
Colin reluctantly accepted the contract document, and said to Cathy, "Come in with me."
After entering the room, as soon as Colin sat down on the chair, Cathy immediately poured a glass of water quickly, and then brought it to Colin: "My lord, please drink water."
Colin looked at the flattering Cathy, smiled and waved his hands: "You don't have to be so nervous."
Then he pointed to the seat opposite and ordered, "Sit down."
Cathy sat down obediently, but her back was straight, and she still seemed a little nervous.
"How did you become a slave?" Colin knew from Cathy's appearance and temperament that this girl should have a good family background before, not like a child of a slave.
"My father used to be a businessman, but later he went bankrupt, so he sold me to pay off the debt." Speaking of the unbearable past, Cathy couldn't help but shed tears.
corny story.
I don't know how true or false it is.
Colin looked at the lovely and pitiful Cathy, and asked again: "Then how long have you been with Prince William?"
"I was just sold to Prince William today."
"Huh?" Colin frowned, "Then which chamber of commerce did you work for before?"
"The Hyacinth Chamber of Commerce."
really!
Colin immediately guessed that the naive Prince William probably didn't find out the true details of the Hyacinth Chamber of Commerce.
And this half-elf female slave may be a gift from Sith to curry favor with Prince William.
It's just that he didn't expect to be sent to Colin directly by Prince William.
Um? etc!
The half-elven slave girl that the Sith gave to Prince William
Colin rubbed his chin and suddenly laughed.
"come here."
After hearing Colin's order, Cathy immediately stood up and walked in front of Colin.
"Come a little more."
Cathy took another step forward.
Colin also stood up suddenly, startling Cathy.
The two were very close, and Colin leaned closer deliberately, putting his face almost on Cathy's.
Cathy seemed to realize something, and her pretty face blushed instantly.
The masculine aura on Colin's body made her heart flutter, and her mind was completely blank.
At this moment, Colin suddenly asked, "What's your last name?"
"My surname..." Cathy woke up instantly, her eyes widened, and she quickly changed her words, "My lord, I'm just a slave, how can I have a surname!"
"Neither did you before you became a slave?"
Cathy shook her head: "My lord, I was just a commoner before."
Colin sneered, obviously not believing this kind of rhetoric.
Cathy's subconscious reaction that caught off guard just now has betrayed her.
In this world, only nobles are allowed to have surnames. If Cathy was really just a commoner, she would never subconsciously use the sentence pattern "My surname...".
Reminiscent of the collusion between Sith and Queen Elsa, Colin suddenly felt that this Cathy could not be from the Miller family, right
If this is the case, then Duke Miller is too cruel.
In order to put an undercover agent beside the enemy, he even sold all the family members as slaves.
Of course, Colin also guessed another possibility—
Cathy may not have anything to do with the Miller family, but Sith, or the secret son of a certain family behind Sith.
In fact, this is the real reason why Colin chose to defraud Cathy in the first place.
He always felt that that Sith didn't look like a commoner.
A half-elf commoner, even with the backing of trolls, probably would not dare to intervene in the high-level struggle of Silvermoon City.
It's a pity that this female slave is obviously not a knight, and Colin can't transform her into a bloodborn, so as to pry her mouth open.
As for the Blood Slave, she could be transformed, but it was obviously impossible for Colin to know her details for that kind of mindless walking dead.
"You go down first."
"Yes." Cathy gave Colin a pitiful look, and then ran out like a frightened fawn.
Ke Lin looked at the back of the other party going away, and suddenly felt that his plan seemed to be perfected.
Sith, Cathy, Queen Elsa...
That's an interesting thread.
