The Sword and The Shadow

Chapter 172: Return to Merindl again

Views:

A few days later, Regnar and his party returned to Merindel City again.

"Three years ago, I left here in a state of embarrassment. Three years later, I came back here again, and from now on, no one dares to yell at me!" Regnar said with great pride in his heart. I couldn't help but swear viciously.

"Hey! Xiao Lei, quickly give the gold coins you owe the coachman! We can't default on the debt!" Kordak shouted.

"Xiao Lei! Go help Irene and Yi Ni carry their luggage! They two don't have much strength! You kid has been following your sister for so long, why don't you have any eyesight?!" Vera lectured.

"Brother Regnar, I'm hungry. Let's eat first when we enter the city!" Inelise shouted.

"Thank you, Brother Regnar." Only Irene still spoke to her softly.

"..." The pride in Regnar's heart suddenly disappeared. Negotiating, running errands, and carrying luggage along the way were basically handled by him and Kordak, and Kordak was Regnar's eldest brother, so Regner was considered the hardest worker among this group of people. Just a little guy. In other words, his status in this team is not much different from that of a slave.

Regner once made a ranking when he couldn't sleep at night. This ranking had nothing to do with strength and only judged each person's status in the team. So he got the following ranking.

First place: Vera Tricker. It has to be said that character does determine a person's destiny. The fierceness of Vera, a woman, is obvious to everyone. Although she occasionally is obedient and gentle, most of the time, she is just like a naked tigress. This led to a situation where one family was the only one in their group. When Vera said something, no one dared to say something else. When Vera said something about eating, no one dared to drink water. His great power and high prestige are evident.

Fortunately, this woman does not often give orders, and in line with the principle of a united front, she also cares for her two-yuan general, which is quite popular, strictly speaking. Therefore, no one can shake this woman's number one status at present.

Second place: Enelly Slater. Although this little girl is the youngest in the whole group. But even Vera had to admit that Enelise was the smartest and most capable of learning among the three women. Compared with Vera, she has a well-behaved and obedient side, and compared with Irene, she also has a fierce and powerful side. The combination of strength and softness, as well as both civil and military skills, gave Inelise a great advantage. The two coolies, Regnar and Kordak, loved and feared her. Therefore, except for Vera, who suppressed everyone with her absolute aura, Inelise's second position is unshakable.

Third place: Erin. This poor half-elf girl is simple, kind, timid, and even a little cowardly. But in line with the principle of mutual help between people of the same sex, the two giants Vera and Inelise naturally would not let their poor sister be bullied by the two idiots Regnar and Kordak. Therefore, with the deliberate support of the two giants, Irene's status soared, firmly suppressing the two coolies.

Fourth place: Kordak. In this small feminist group, even the most outstanding men do not have a high status. Kordak is the best proof of this. This man has great strength, meticulous mind and flexible mind. He was born to be a leader, a very good leader, but he was always depressed because he lived in such a feminist group. Sad, deplorable, pitiable... And the only thing that can make Kordak feel relieved is that he is not the most pathetic, deplorable, and pitiful one, because he is not still the last one.

Last place: Regnar. Well, this ranking was set by Regner himself. As a very proud man, he naturally didn't want to rate himself so low. But he couldn't help it, because it was indeed true. Those three women, hehehehehe, he would never dare to challenge their authority even in his dreams. As for Kordak, although this guy can't beat him now, he is his boss no matter what. As a proud man, he would never challenge his boss status no matter how shameless he was. This was one of his principles. And for this principle, he could only endure the humiliation and bear the burden of being a low-level man.

As a minion, you must have the consciousness of being a minion. So Regnar first handed the agreed gold coins to the coachman, and then hurriedly ran to carry the salutes of Inelise and Irene on his shoulders one by one. After finishing all this, a few people watched Regner rushing into the city carrying three big bags to order wine and food for several aunts.

"How are you going to find Annie next?" Vera asked, wiping her mouth with satisfaction.

When the word "Annie" was mentioned, several other people clearly felt Regner's eyelids twitching. It's no wonder, they all know Annelotte's temperament. Although this frost girl is usually cold and seems to have no mood swings, they know how terrifying she can be once she gets angry.

But now Annelotte, who has a cold and indifferent temperament, was actually made angry by Regnar and left. One can imagine how angry the Frost Girl was at that time.

Now, what they were thinking about was definitely not whether Annelotte's anger had subsided - that was impossible. What they were thinking about was how far Annelotte's anger had subsided, and whether she would blow Regna into ice slag as soon as they met. At the same time, they were also calculating whether to stop Annelotte at that time, but thinking of the girl's temper, Vera, Kordak and Inelise all felt a cold air rushing up their backs at the same time, so they couldn't help but Shaked his head.

"I don't know either..." Regnar scratched his hair in distress: "I think it's better to go to her father and ask first. I think the Sword Master of the Wind must know."

"Mr. Malloryt lives in Melinder?" Kordak asked. If that was the case, he felt that he needed to pay a visit. After all, this old madman had saved him twice. It's time to take the initiative to go over and say thank you.

"I'm not sure." Regnar said: "He was indeed here three years ago. If it weren't for that old guy, I might still be picking leftovers from the garbage dump. But now, who knows if he is here? He has made several trips to Lance Continent in the past few years, so it is normal for him not to be in Melinder now."

"Anyway, it's better to go take a look." Kordak thought for a while and said: "Today we will find a place to settle down first, and then Vera and I will go take a look with you. Do you still remember the location of his mansion? Bar?"

Regnar frowned: "I can't remember clearly, but it shouldn't be difficult to find. At worst, ask someone. After all, the name of Swift Wind Sword Master is still very famous in Merindl."

Kordak nodded: "Okay, that's settled."

It was a luxurious mansion and a very good location. According to current terms, at least he has a house within the second ring road of the capital, and the sign next to it also indicates its owner: Gale Mansion.

"Oh! I didn't expect Mr. Malolite to live in such a prosperous place." Kordak sighed. Although Merindel is not as majestic and vast as the Falling Star City, its prosperity is no less prosperous than the Falling Star City.

As an old resident who has lived in Falling Star City for such a long time, he naturally knows how difficult it is to get a mansion in the center of Falling Star City, not to mention that this is the center of the entire empire, and even the royal palace is nearby

"Ah, you haven't gone in to see it. It's a mess in there. I thought I climbed over a wall and came to the suburbs." Regnar rolled his eyes. Although it was only a few minutes, he was The scene inside the Marolite Mansion left a deep impression on me.

Tuk-tuk-tuk, Kordak knocked on the door very politely. Although Malolite is a bit disrespectful, this old guy is a sword master after all, and he is also his savior. With these two prerequisites, Kordak will behave towards him even if the other person is a dog. Show enough respect.

A young maid opened the door: "Who are you looking for?"

"Hello, is this the residence of Mr. Mallory? I am his friend." Kordak showed a kind smile, because this maid is pretty good-looking, with fair and tender skin, and she looks... An urge to take a bite.

The maid obviously saw the green light flashing in Kordak's eyes. She frowned in disgust, but still said: "The master is not here."

"Where has he gone?" Regnar asked first.

The maid's eyes lit up when she saw Regnar. This boy was quite handsome with his handsome features, but the smile on his face was a bit vulgar. She shook her head and said, "I don't know. The master's whereabouts have been erratic. How can we servants know so much?"

"Then... that..." Regnar asked excitedly: "Have you ever seen a girl about the same age as me, with blue hair, very beautiful?"

"Are you talking about Miss Anne?" The maid smiled and said, "How could I not recognize Miss Anne?"

"Where is she?" Regnar's eyes suddenly lit up.

"She's not here either. She went to participate in the martial arts competition. Hum, with my young lady's talent, she will definitely be the champion of this intermediate martial arts competition!" the maid said with some pride.

"Tournament?" Regner was stunned. He vaguely remembered what notices were posted on the walls around him, but because he was anxious to find Annelotte, he never paid attention to them.

"Go and read the notices yourself!" the maid prepared to close the door.

"Hey, wait, how can I find Annie?" Regnar put his hand on the door to stop the maid.

"How do I know?" The maid frowned. She was dissatisfied with Regnar's affectionate name for Annelotte. Who is the young lady? How dare you, a young brat like you, call her that? She said coldly: "Okay, let go quickly, I have other things to do!"

"Can I ask you a favor?" Regnar took out a gold coin from his pocket: "If Anne or Lord Mallory come back, please tell them that Regnar has come to see them."

Regnar thought that the bright gold coins in his hand would definitely work, but he didn't expect that the maid would not accept this trick at all.

If you offend the young lady, it is an insult to her, Alian. How can I, Alian, accept money from such a person? So she pushed away Regnar's hand and said, "I don't want your money, and you don't want to bother the lady or the master."

"You!" Regnar immediately became anxious. Seeing that he had found Annelotte's residence, but he still couldn't see her, how could he not be anxious

Regnar pushed the door hard, and then wanted to look inside.

Seeing that Regna was trying to force his way into the house, the maid immediately shouted, "Ah!!!! Someone has forced his way into the house!"

Her yell was so sharp that Regnar was frightened and trembled on the spot, and the strength in his hands disappeared due to this. Seeing the opportunity, the maid immediately closed the door.

"Hey! Open the door. I'm really Annie's friend. Open the door quickly. I still have something to ask!" Regnar hammered on the door and shouted.

"No need to say any more!" the maid said coldly from behind the door: "You'd better leave quickly, otherwise I will ask the servants to drive you away!"

"..." Regnar saw that he couldn't make any more noise at this time, so he had no choice but to stop knocking on the door.

A deep look of disappointment flashed across Regnar's face. Although his legs were still weak when he wanted to see Annelotte, Regnar still understood the truth that stretching one's head is a sword and shrinking one's head. So he just wanted this matter to be settled as soon as possible. Of course, with Annelotte not being by his side in the past few months, Regnar also felt that there was always a missing piece in his heart. Therefore, it is undeniable that Regnar misses this frost girl very much and desperately wants to see her, even if the cost is that he will be frozen into ice slag.

"What should we do next?" Kordak asked. Although he is the commander-in-chief of the team, this matter is more of a private matter between Regnar and Annelotte, and it is not easy for him to give orders here. .

Regnar looked frustrated and was thinking about his next action, but a person interrupted his thoughts.

"Okay, ladies and gentlemen, with all due respect, but I have to remind you that the next thing you have to do is to explain to me what just happened. If I don't get a satisfactory answer, you Maybe you need to go to the Public Security Department for a couple of cups of tea." A middle-aged man said.
