"The giant bear is not iron-blooded!" Shame on the empire! 》

Undoubtedly, a few days later the Melinder Daily News used such a headline as the news headline of the day. Although Kordak has not been sent back yet, the news that he was captured by the Wandering Holy Spear has already spread.

In this news, "Melindel Daily" vigorously criticized Kordak's deplorable deeds in the empire-deserting, attacking imperial officials, and harming imperial princes. Any of these things can be considered a serious crime. Under the irresponsible speculation of some other unscrupulous media, Kordak was even portrayed as a military spy sent by the Stoker Empire to the Hawke Empire!

For a time, the entire Merindel people were angry, and a small group of people even held a parade inside Melindel. They strongly demanded that the empire ignore Kordak's military exploits in the southern battlefield and kill him directly. There are even more radical "patriots" who believe that others related to Kordak should also deserve to die. They might also be spies sent by the Stoke Empire. They would rather kill by mistake than let go!

"Bang!"

Regnar was so furious that he smashed his solid wood desk worth several hundred gold coins into pieces, scattering the pieces of paper and sawdust all over the floor.

Snow lowered his head and carefully endured Regnar's anger. He knew that Regnar was angry now, so he must not do anything else at this time, just stand silently and obey his arrangements.

"What's going on?" Regnar stared at Snow with a gloomy face: "Didn't I tell them not to let them track down old... Kordak? Why was he still caught?"

"Kordak's clues and information were indeed not provided by our Military Intelligence Department." Snow was already prepared. He took out a few pieces of information and handed them to Regner with his head lowered: "We have never provided any information about Kordak. Practical information, his location seems to have been found out by other departments... "

"Then why didn't you remind me!" Regnar roared like an angry lion.

"Sir..." Snow replied: "I did remind you, but you asked me not to care..."

"Don't vent your anger on irrelevant people!" Only Garona could scold Regnar on this occasion.

"..." Regnar closed his eyes and controlled his emotions, and then he thought about it. Yes, Snow did remind him a few days ago. He said Kordak seemed to be being pursued a little too closely recently and that other intelligence agencies might be tracking him. But at that time, Regner chose to ignore it because he was angry at Kordak's betrayal. Snow seemed to remind Regnar twice, but both times Regnar didn't pay attention.

Because subconsciously, Regnar also felt that with Kordak's ability, escaping from the Hawke Empire should be very simple.

But Regnar miscalculated one thing. That is, he never expected that Kordak had been wandering around the north. Although he was chased and fled in embarrassment, he did not escape or leave the Hawke Empire. Because he still wanted to find another chance to catch Elan, because he was still thinking about how to find Vera. Therefore, his range of activities is becoming more and more restricted. In the end, getting caught wasn't a surprise.

When Kordak fled in panic, Regnar felt a kind of joy that was like gnashing his teeth. Want to kill me? Want to harm me? Do you want to use me to pave the way for you to get promoted and make a fortune? Are you coming? Are you going to kill me? Now you can only be chased and run away in embarrassment, like a defeated dog!

But when Kordak was really caught, Regnar became angry and intolerable. Do you really want him to die like this? Even if he was using it, he had saved his own life after all...

Regnar was hesitant.

"Sir..." Xue Nuo lowered his head and asked, "Do you want me to take some action on this matter..."

"What do you want to do? That's the Wandering Holy Spear!" Regnar asked.

"It is true that the person responsible for escorting Kordak is the Wandering Holy Spear, but the Wandering Holy Spear has a close relationship with His Highness Alexander." Snow analyzed in a low voice: "If we make some gestures with Alexander, I I think His Highness will be happy to help us beg for mercy from his teacher. And even the strong men of the Holy Realm are also human beings. As long as they are human beings, there will inevitably be times when they take a nap or relax. Even if one or two people run away at this time, Isn’t that something strange?”

"How dare you engage in such a deal under the eyes of His Majesty the King?!" Regnar's eyes turned cold. He stared at Snow, and then suddenly realized that he couldn't understand this Stoke man. His normal behavior can be described as docile and low-key, but sometimes, he will do amazing things. And to make a deal with Alexander so blatantly at this time? I'm afraid that Larvin won't turn a blind eye. What on earth does he want to do

"Xiao Dare not!" Snow did not lower his head this time. He looked at Regnar and said sincerely: "Xiao Nuo just feels that although you have some unpleasantness with Mr. Kordak, Sir, Snow feels that in your case, Deep down, he must still value Mr. Kordak very much. Snow just wants to find a way to rescue Mr. Kordak for you, and has absolutely no other intentions!"

"..." If Snow had lowered his head just now, Regnar would have doubted whether he had other motives, but Snow had been looking directly into Regnar's eyes just now. He did not escape at all, and there was only sincerity in his eyes. It's not like lying.

In the end, Regnar could only slow down his attitude: "Let me think about it again."

"yes."

Regnar was silent for a long time. He thought about a lot of things, every bit of his time with Kordak; he thought about Kordak's care for him; and he thought about his sword that night, although it didn't work. Cutting off his head broke his heart; finally, he thought of what the two had promised that night: from now on, there would be no righteousness.

Therefore, Regnar sat in front of the broken table fragments and thought for half an hour. In the end, he shook his head firmly: "No! He has nothing to do with me. We don't need to worry about this matter. Just leave it alone!"

"Sir!" Snow still wanted to say something, but it seemed that he was more worried about Kordak's safety than Regnar.

"Shut up!" Regnar roared furiously: "This matter is settled, stop nagging you, get out of here!"

"..." An incomprehensible light flashed in Snow's eyes, which seemed to be disappointment, regret, and also unbearable and apologetic... But no matter what, this Stoke man quickly put himself into the spotlight. All his expressions were hidden. He replied: "Since you have made up your mind, Snow will say no more and Snow will retire."

After Snow left, Regnar sat on the chair in despair, muttering: "I'm sorry..."

"Since you feel sorry, why don't you help him?" Garona asked.

"But I can't forgive him either." Regnar felt his anger rising as he recalled what happened that night. If Kordak stood in front of him now, he would probably have to fight Kordak again. He would step on Kordak's head and yell at him for his heartlessness.

"Human beings are really contradictory. They clearly have a more desired result in their hearts, but because of some ridiculous and incomprehensible feelings, they choose things they don't want to accept." Garona sighed: "But let it go, at least this way , you can maintain your position in this empire."

"..." Regnar remained silent. He sat blankly on the chair for an hour, then went out to find someone to change the table and continued his work.

That night, Regnar and Irene quarreled for the first time. This was the first time the two of them had quarreled. Before, Regnar had always been very tolerant and gentle towards Irene, and Irene had always been a gentle and obedient little girl. Nothing unpleasant had ever happened between the two of them together. matter.

And that night, Regnar still quarreled with Irene, the half-elf girl who knew him best and understood him best.

The half-elf always insisted on letting Regnar save Kordak, but Regnar stubbornly refused to agree. Both of them had their own reasons. This time, Regnar, who had always been tolerant and easy-going towards Irene, did not agree with Irene, and Irene, who had always been gentle and well-behaved, also seemed extremely tough.

Annelotte and Inelise, who were finally dragged in, also joined the fight. As we know, men and women are inherently disadvantageous when they quarrel. At this time, Regnar had to face three women at the same time. One was the sharp-tongued Inelise, the other was Annelotte who had the ability to kill you if she didn't like it, and the other one knew that Regnar was... Erin of any mental vulnerability…

It is conceivable that Regnar was killed in the early stages of the war. But this guy always insisted on his point of view like an invincible Xiaoqiang. No matter whether the three women tried their best to persuade her, or they were coercive or tempting, Regner remained unmoved.

In the end, the three women failed to persuade Regnar to change his mind. In the end, Annelotte became a little angry.

"Just leave it alone! I am also the dean of a magic academy, at least I can do something! It doesn't matter even without your help!" Annelotte turned around and left after saying that.

The other two girls followed Annelotte like followers and left angrily without even saying hello.

"What are you waiting for? What are you insisting on?" Garona asked.

"One reason." Regnar sat on the chair and bent over with his head in his hands. He said a little aggrievedly: "I have enough reasons to kill Kordak, but I can never find a reason to kill Kordak." The reason to pull out of the fire pit. Why... It's my fault every time. Why... I will bear all the mistakes... "

But no matter how much Regnar struggled in his heart, he still didn't take action in the end. So a few days later, Kordak was sent to Melinder by Kevin and imprisoned in the bottom prison of the empire.
