The Devil’s Cage Chapter 14: Tentative?
Count Will responded, and Kieran was not surprised.
Under the premise that Mary has already moved, that person Earl Will, known as the fox, is strange if he does not respond.
However, the other party's "Assassination" surprised Kieran.
It is not a good way to cope with death, Kieran does not believe that the other party will give up its power and status to be a ‘dead man’.
Unless the other party has no plans.
What is the plot?
Everything is obvious.
"The other party is very clear that in his own identity, if he is assassinated, Mary, the successor of Warren and Princess, will inevitably need to go to see and worship, and at the end of this war, even if it is for safety Consider, I will certainly accompany me."
"So, in addition to Mary, am I also targeted?"
"You can even say..."
"I am the main one!"
Kieran narrowed both eyes.
Under normal circumstances, in the past, the old that person Earl's slick style was hard to imagine that the other party would be so bold that they would do such a thing.
In short, the other party must rely on it.
And this reliance must be formidable to the extent that the other party thinks he can fight him.
"Who will it be?"
Kieran looked at Mary while guessing the people hidden in the dark.
The underage Princess is also looking at Kieran.
In the eyes of this Princess, there is no worry or fear, only thinking.
Obviously, Mary has also discovered that the old Earl was assassinated.
"I think we need to negotiate from the long side."
The side Count Zilin said this.
For such a cautious proposal, Kieran will never object. If there is no Main Quest ‘guaranteeing that Mary will succeed in becoming king in 30 days’, there is a more appropriate way for Kieran.
For example: rely on Raven Sect to search for news.
In the camp of the prairie people, Raven Sect has spies, so in the southern reinforcements, Kieran believes that such spies also exist.
And now?
However, another more risky approach is necessary.
Because he didn’t have more time to investigate what kind of arrangement the Southern Army had.
He can only use his body as bait to elicit those arrangements.
Or, some people.
However, before that, Kieran consulted Mary.
"Mary?"
"Listen to you."
Princess said very simply.
Her trust in Kieran has already exceeded others' imagination.
"It's too risky."
"At least one cavalry should be transferred from the Lightning Fortress camp."
Count Zilin dissuaded.
But such dissuasion is of no use to Kieran, Mary.
"A cavalry?"
"Unless they directly overwhelm the reinforcements in the south, they will have no effect."
"I act alone, it will be more convenient."
Kieran shook his head.
"Is two people."
Mary emphasized.
For this, Kieran nodded with a smile.
"Count me one."
Count Zilin also followed, but was rejected by Kieran.
"Riverdale needs someone who can guard."
"You are the most suitable person."
Kieran said so.
"The Father King pleased you for the time being, Earl Your Excellency."
Mary said the same.
"Your Highness, as you wish."
The young earl saluted immediately.
Later, a convoy with only a few people left the Riverdale palace.
The young count, watching the convoy leave until he could not see it at all, turned back to the palace and began to arrange guards and patrols.
For the mission delivered by Kieran and Mary, the young earl will not be taken lightly.
Although there is no such thing as the world in front of you, there is no such thing as a proverb.
For the honor of Zilin Family, the young earl is solemnly waiting.
......
Southern reinforcements were stationed 20 kilometers south of Riverdale. Under clear weather, this huge camp was clearly visible to everyone after the convoy left Riverdale.
After standing in the car and looking at the camp, Mary turned and returned to the car.
She embraces [Sword of Thorn], which is almost as tall as hers, and squints both eyes. It looks similar to Kieran.
Not just this time, many times, Mary is imitating some small actions of Kieran.
Speaking, walking, sitting and lying.
It's not exactly a worship of the strong.
There are also minors learning from their parents.
In the family, the reason why the children are like parents is mostly because of this learning. The same living environment and similar food, unconsciously, everything becomes very similar.
This is a heritage.
In fact, most family inheritances are like this.
In the world in front of us, inheritance goes far beyond family.
Listening to the rhythmic breathing of Mary, Kieran could not help glancing.
He can hear that it is a practice method.
However, Kieran does not ask too much, everyone has everyone’s secret.
Yes, Mary.
He is no exception.
Moreover, far more than Mary imagined.
Without making a sound, Kieran walked out of the carriage and sat on the driver’s side.
"Adult."
The Viper One driving, the Fink and Torstar who were faintly gathered next to the car said very respectfully.
This respect has already surpassed those soldiers who were under the control of [Mesly Ring] Viper Sect Sword Holder and the backbone. After leaving Kieran, they not only protected Princess according to the instructions of Kieran, but also did quite well. According to Fink, According to the information quietly handed over from Torstar, the three of them solved at least four assassinations for Mary.
Where did the assassination come from, and the three people around Mary could not leave without Kieran order,
"Assassination?"
Kieran murmured, but both eyes looked at the side of the road ahead.
Riverdale is the capital of Warren. Compared to the muddy dirt roads in the countryside, the roads here are not only smooth but also spacious enough to accommodate two carriages side by side.
At the moment, on the road ahead~IndoMTL.com~ a two-wheeled carriage was dumped there sideways.
The overturned body makes it clear that the axle is broken.
A stallion pulling a cart was tied to a tree beside the road, and was looking down at the grass beside the road.
There are also salutes scattered on the ground.
Some packed gold and silver utensils, and some clothes.
Obviously, this carriage should belong to the refugees who returned after hearing Warren victory after leaving Riverdale.
Just...
Only horses, carriages and salutes are left on the road.
I didn’t see anyone.
Without Kieran's instructions, the accompanying Fink immediately went to investigate.
And just as Fink was investigating, a slight scrutiny of his eyes shot from the forest on one side and fell directly on Kieran.
