"What?!" Regnar was shocked when he heard this.

"According to the information sent to me by the guild, you killed Balor at the end of the duel, cut off his head and sent it back to the guild." Annelotte stared at Regner and said, trying to judge Is Regna's current expression a disguise? What makes her happy is that Regna doesn't seem to be acting now. It seems that there seems to be something behind this matter.

"I didn't kill him! I didn't cut off his head!" Regnar frowned: "He was indeed injured by me at the time, and he was also poisoned with paralyzing poison, but I believe those injuries were not enough to put him at risk. Death place. At least, when I left, Balor could still talk to me normally, but he couldn't move because of the poison."

"So, the guild is lying?" Annelotte pondered.

"I really didn't kill him, Annie, you have to believe me!" Regnar seemed a little excited. Although Balor was an enemy, he was also Vera's biological brother, and Regnar also gave me Vera. Promise, let Balor live. Now that he was inexplicably labeled as a murderer and a breach of contract, he was not in a very good mood. More importantly, what would Annelotte think of him

"I believe you, you don't need to get excited." Annelotte said calmly: "But what is going on?"

"Yeah..." Regnar pondered, and suddenly he seemed to remember something: "I remember that when we were in Pato Town, Saron once tried to attack Sister Vera. At that time, a black shadow rushed out and helped her block Saron. Long’s attack. Moreover, according to Sister Vera and I’s judgment, that black shadow looks very similar to Balor.”

"Dark Shadow?"

"Yes." Regnar nodded and explained: "Balor's third attribute ability is the shadow clone. He can use the dark attribute energy to condense a physical clone, which looks almost exactly the same as the shadow at that time."

"Really..." Annelotte thought for a while: "Maybe you can ask Alex about this."

"Okay, I will look for him if I have the chance." Regnar also agreed. When asking about the internal affairs of the guild, it is definitely right to look for that uncle.

"Let this matter be like this for now. We will investigate slowly. Don't tell Sister Vera yet."

"Of course." Regnar agreed: "Let's go, I think the boss and the others may be impatient."

As soon as Regnar opened the door, he found Malolite circling anxiously not far away. Lisanna and others looked at the old guy circling around anxiously, and they were a little confused, but due to the They didn't dare to ask about their seniority.

When Regna came out, Malloryt came over immediately. Although he didn't speak, the meaning in his eyes was very clear: "How is it?"

Regnar gave Malolite a thumbs up with an imperceptible movement, and then replied with "eye language": "She accepted the things. Although her attitude towards you is not very good now, I think the old man only needs to If you have a heart, you will definitely be able to move Annie, come on!"

"Good boy! I finally saw you right!" Malloryt also gave a thumbs up and said with his eyes.

Annelotte glanced at the two beaming guys, and then went directly to find Kordak.

Alian was very discerning and hired two carriages at the door. Although she was not very fond of the master of the Wind Mansion, the maid admired her young lady Annelotte extremely. Since the young lady came, the monthly salary of the maid has only increased by ten silver coins, and there are gradually more servants in the mansion. This not only reduces her workload, but also makes the Gale Wind Mansion more popular. Gradually it got rid of the not-so-good name of "haunted house".

Although Malolite is known as the Swift Wind Sword Master, people who know him well know that Malolite is a complete poor dog. Although this old guy was given a mansion by the empire last time, because he was not doing his job all day long, Malolite could not afford such a mansion at all. Before Annelotte arrived, there were only five servants in the Wind Mansion, and three of them were directly rewarded by the Hawke Empire. As for the housekeeper, don't even think about it!

And all this didn't change until Annelotte arrived. The girl not only added several servants to the mansion, but also hired several chefs and gardeners, and the wages also increased a lot compared to before. It can be said that it was not until Annelotte arrived that Alian felt that the mansion had the appearance of a mansion, and that she truly became a servant of a noble.

Therefore, not only Alian, but also most people in the Gale Mansion respected Annelotte very much, as if the girl had been regarded as the real owner of the mansion. Malloryt estimated that if her daughter wanted to usurp the throne, there was a 90% chance that the servants of the Gale Mansion would respond...

But the servants didn't know that Annelotte did this just because she didn't want to feel like she was eating and drinking for free at Malolite's place.

"Thank you for your hard work." Annelotte said to Alian. She actually liked this maid very much. As long as she lived in the Gale Mansion, Alian would always take care of all her daily life in order, although the girl did not pay much attention to it. It's material comfort, but it's always a good feeling to have someone who thinks about you and serves you wholeheartedly.

"It is an honor for Alian to serve Miss!" Alian was also very happy. She saw that Annelotte seemed to be in a good mood today, so she boldly said: "Miss, I have a request."

"What?"

"If possible, Alian would like to be the lady's personal maid, dedicated to serving the lady's life." Alian whispered: "Alian does not need any extra salary reward, Alian just wants to serve the lady... I don't know if it is possible?" "

Annelotte looked at the little maid who was a little embarrassed, and then said: "Why?"

"Because Miss is very outstanding." Alian said: "You are a genius magician and the champion of the martial arts competition. You are also so beautiful. Alian feels that it is a pleasure to serve you!"

Of course, these are what Alian said on the surface. In fact, deep down in her heart, Alian also had the idea that she did not want vulgar men like Regnar or Kordak to mess with the lady. snort! If I, Alian, are around, don't think of causing trouble to the lady again! Including that prince Joffrey!

"Okay, I have no objection to this matter." Malloryt came over. Although this maid was usually cruel to others, she always had great respect for Annelotte, even a bit of admiration. Having such a lively maid by Annelotte's side can just make up for Annelotte's cold temperament, which should be a good thing for the girl.

"Then, okay." Annelotte nodded: "It will be your fault from now on."

"It's not hard, it's not hard! Ah Lian is really happy to be able to serve the lady!" The little maid jumped up happily.

Just like that, Alan followed Annelotte and the others into the carriage as if it were a matter of course.

Kordak's independent brigade was repairing in the suburbs about 20 kilometers outside Merinder City, although there were also several Hawke Empire troops repairing near them. But if you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find that Kordak's independent brigade is very far away from the other armies. It is not known whether other comrades can isolate them, or they themselves are not gregarious...

But Kordak was not particularly surprised by this situation. He had heard Alexander talk about Joffrey's little moves as early as last night. As for how the second prince knew, there is no need to say more. He always leaves some spies in Merindl.

The layout of the military camp still looks a little crude. A temporary fence roughly divides an open space, and a lot of tents are set up crookedly inside. Even from a distance of dozens of meters, Kordak and others can Heard the commotion coming from the military camp.

Seeing this situation, Vera and Eberron didn't look particularly good. Although they were young, they both knew the importance of discipline in the army. Although they are not as harsh as Alexander, if their subordinates are such a group of yelling rogues, the next life will definitely not be easy...

Kordak, on the other hand, was not too surprised by the scene in front of him because he had been vaccinated against Alexander.

Several people walked to the entrance of the military camp. Thank God, these guys knew to leave a guard on guard. It's just that their slightly red eyes and faint smell of alcohol are some flaws.

"Stop! This is an important military camp! Who are you? You are not allowed to enter without permission!" the guard shouted loudly.

Kordak leaned forward, and then couldn't help but waved his hand: "It's only the afternoon, and I'm already drunk like this. What will you do in the evening?"

"Hey!" The guard seemed to have forgotten his duties, and he actually started chatting with Kordak: "We are unlucky today. Not only do we always lose in boxing, but we also get killed in bets. No, In just one afternoon, I lost half of this month’s salary, and I still have to come here to stand guard, which is really unlucky to say the least!”

"Oh? So there are still people playing inside?" Kordak said with a smile.

"Of course, Heizi and the others are very lucky today, I think they will be gambling all night!" the guard said vaguely.

"Okay, let's go in and play a few games." After Kordak said this, he greeted everyone and prepared to go in.

"Stop! Who are you? This is a military camp!" The guard finally remembered his responsibility. But just when he was about to reach out to stop him, Eberron came behind him with a dark face, and then the young man knocked the incompetent guard unconscious with a precise strike of his hand.
