Chapter 97: leave

Views:

In the next few days, Regner and others stayed at Gerhat's house. The four of them discussed it and each gave Gerhard two gold coins as accommodation and living expenses for the past few days.

Originally, Gerhart was determined not to accept it, but Regnar and others said that if they didn't accept it, they would have no choice but to leave, so Gerhart gave up.

"Okay, this is not much money to us at all." Regnar patted Gerhart, who was still a little bit embarrassed.

"Yeah! Brother Regnar is the richest, and he buys us snacks every day!" Minnie nodded vigorously at the side. After getting along with each other in the past few days, Minnie was no longer afraid of Regnar.

The little girl even became somewhat dependent on this thin and delicate boy. Sometimes she would wonder if Regnar had agreed to her brother's request that night, would she have been able to stay with him forever? Together

Every time she thought of this, Minnie's little face would turn red, and her eyes looking at Regna would look a little shy.

These few days of leisure were a rare experience for the four mercenaries, and Regnar felt extremely satisfied with this living condition. So, he once again proposed to stay here.

If Regnar was joking last time, this time Regnar was a little more serious. He even began to think about how to reach a reconciliation with Balor. Regnar told Kordak his considerations, eager to get his approval.

Kordak stared at Regnar, and then sighed: "If you really yearn for this kind of life... you can stay here."

"Boss, where are you?" Regner was stunned, listening to Kordak's tone as if he wanted to separate from him.

"I can't stay here." Kordak smiled bitterly.

"Why?"

Kordak slapped Regnar on the back of the head and cursed with a smile: "Boy, have you forgotten that the full moon will be in two days?"

Regnar was startled, and then he realized that not only was it difficult for him to escape from such a bloody and complicated life of killing, but also that the people around him couldn't escape.

Kordak has werewolf blood, and only a life of fighting in the wild will prevent his secrets from being exposed.

As a sister, Vera has to bring her twisted brother back to the right path, otherwise she will not be able to live a peaceful life.

Regnar himself and Su Ri'an had some ideas, but they actually didn't have much confidence in persuading Balor to let him go.

As for Annelotte, as a former high-ranking member of the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild, it would be impossible for her to just leave.

If I didn't have these companions around me, I wouldn't be happy even if I lived here peacefully, right

So Regnar shook his head helplessly and never mentioned this matter again. At least these few days are going well, so enjoy it happily!

The happy time is always extremely short-lived. The full moon day is coming, and Regnar and others have to leave York Town.

"Hey, Gerhart, have you ever thought about becoming a mercenary with us? It's very profitable, at least it has a much better future than you are now as a hunter." Before leaving, Regnar invited Gerhart to join them. .

Gerhart thought for a while, then shook his head firmly: "I'm sorry, Brother Regnar, I appreciate your kindness, but... But if I become a mercenary, no one will take care of the two of them. "

Gerhart looked dotingly at the two younger sisters who were jumping around and cleaning the room in the distance and said: "Since my parents left, they are the only two left in my world. They are everything to me, so, I We must take care of them no matter what. Brother, have you ever felt that way?"

"Um?"

"The feeling when someone you cherish looks at you with a look of expectation and dependence. A small part of what I have been able to support in the past two years is the faith and strength you brought to me, brother. The other half is the two of them. Oh!" Gerhat said softly: "Did you know? When their father died and their mother ran away, the two of them cried very sadly. While crying, they said that no one cared about them. At that time, I patted my chest and said :'My brother is still here, and I will take good care of you!' At that time, I swore in my heart that no matter how miserable my life was and no matter how many people bullied me, I would not let the two of them suffer any injustice! And this sentence has become the entire meaning of my future life.”

Although Gerhat's voice was very soft, Regnar could hear in his tone an extremely firm determination and courage enough to face the whole world. He knew that he could not persuade the young man, so Regnar stopped talking.

He handed an exquisite dagger to Gerhardt: "My enchanted dagger has commemorative significance, so I can't give it to you. This one is for you. Although it is not as good as my flaming blade, it is definitely a good one." Weapon. It should be easier for you to take it hunting in the future."

"Brother, this dagger is too valuable, I can't have it!" Although Gerhart is not a blacksmith, he can still roughly distinguish the material and performance of the weapon. From his point of view, this dagger is enough to be used as a representative work in the largest blacksmith shop in York Town. It is a super fine product priced at more than dozens of gold coins.

"Don't f*cking ask me for money all the time. I don't need that little money." Regnar waved his hand in an arrogant tone: "As I said before, think more about your sister. If you die while hunting Now, what do you want the two of them to do? I didn’t give you this thing to sell for money, use it and live well."

"Brother... thank you." Gerhart was very touched. To be honest, he and Regnar just met by chance, but Regnar was willing to pay so much for him. He was grateful to this young man who was not much older than him. I felt a little more respectful.

"Thank you, I can only do so much." Regnar patted Gerhat on the shoulder: "If I am still alive in the future, I will come back to see you. If I hear that you bully two Sister, I won’t let you go!”

"Brother, don't worry!" Gerhart vowed.

Regnar and others originally wanted to leave quietly without letting Minnie and Inelise know. However, unexpectedly, two attentive little girls discovered the movement of several people packing their luggage. In desperation, Gerhart could only tell his sisters that these mercenary brothers and sisters were leaving soon.

Minnie and Inelise were very sad when they heard the news. The four mercenaries comforted them with gentle words for a long time before they gradually calmed down.

After the luncheon, it was time for the four mercenaries to hit the road. Gerhart took his two sisters and sent them to the gate of the town.

"Brother, remember to come back and see Minnie!" Minnie looked at Regna with tears in her eyes.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely come back!" Regnar smiled and touched Minnie's little head.

Minnie lowered her head, and suddenly the little girl wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. She and Inelis looked at each other and then said with a flushed face: "Brother Regnar, come closer."

"Huh?" Regnar was a little strange, but he didn't ask any more questions and bent down as he was told.

Then the two little girls suddenly stood up on their tiptoes and kissed Regna's cheeks from left to right.

"Oh!" Vera let out a strange exclamation, Kordak whistled in a sinister manner, and Annelotte... the girl's eyes were swollen, but there was no doubt that she looked at the two little girls with eyes filled with excitement. smile.

Regnar was stunned, and suddenly he laughed gently. Regnar looked at the two little girls who were nervously tugging at the corners of their clothes, their little faces flushed, and then stretched out his hands to gently stroke their little heads.

"Don't worry, I will definitely come back to see you!" Regnar said with a smile.

"Big brother, big sister...goodbye." The two little girls said in unison.

"Goodbye!" The four mercenaries waved and embarked on their journey again.

The departure of the four mercenaries did not cause much shock to Yorktown. In fact, few people knew that these four people were guests of the Gerhart family, and few people knew that they were mercenaries.

However, this is only rarely, not nothing.

Yorktown is still so peaceful and peaceful at night, but such a peaceful and sultry town welcomes a large number of people at night. They are well-equipped, and their leader is a middle-aged mage with a faint magic ring shining around his body.

A high-level mage, no matter how weak the magic ring is, as long as that thing appears, it means that it is a high-level mage.

The appearance of such a terrifying group of people in the town naturally attracted the attention of the mayor.

The mayor of the town, Edwin Multe, went out to greet them personally and invited them to his mansion as guests.

"Edwin didn't know that several adults arrived suddenly and may have lost some etiquette. I hope that the adults can forgive me." Edwin dismissed the attendants and poured a cup of tea for the leading high-level mage himself. Although he lives in Such a remote corner, but as the mayor, he still knows a little bit about the legends about high-level mages on the mainland.

Not to mention the distance, in a small town like his own, the high-level mage in front of him could demolish everything to the ground in a matter of minutes.

Therefore, even though this high-level mage looked wretched and had arrogance and disdain on his face, Edwin was still not angry at all.

"Mayor, you don't have to be polite. We are just following orders. I feel a little sorry for disturbing you all of a sudden." An attendant behind the high-level mage answered on his behalf. He was wearing armor and looked like a knight.

"Then... please forgive me for talking too much. I wonder what I can do for you? I am the mayor of this town. Although I have no skills, I am very familiar with the town of York. Maybe I can help you. busy."

The knight smiled: "We are actually thinking of asking the mayor. Let me briefly introduce that we are members of the Secret Eyes Law Enforcement Team."

"It turns out that these adults are from the eyes of the secret. I'm sorry, I'm disrespectful." Edwin looked even more humble.

"Mayor, you don't have to be so polite. We were entrusted by the vice-president of the guild, the great High Mage Horadric, to investigate and find several mercenaries. And this is the captain of this investigation team. He is also Hera Lord Dick's chief disciple, Mr. Nabil, and I am the captain of the squire, Krat." The knight said, and then he took a note from the guard behind him and handed it to Edwin: "This is what we are looking for. Those mercenaries."

The mayor took the note and murmured to himself as he read it: "Kordak Wedwin, Vera Trikle, Annelotte, Regnar..."
