Horace thought he was safe at least until Wien and the others got the evidence.

But what he thought was obviously too simple.

Before he could leave the city lord's mansion, Alik hurried over with his personal guards and surrounded him and the guards who were carrying him.

"Put him down," said Alek.

The city lord's voice was extremely cold, and the guards who were escorting Horace subconsciously showed a panic expression.

Could it be that...he heard those unrespectful words before?

Seeing the guilty expression on the faces of several people, Alic was furious: "Catch them all!"

The guards responded.

"City, Lord City, why is this?" A guard was confused.

Could it be that the consequences are so serious just because I said a few sarcastic words to the nobles behind my back?

"Ha, you still dare to pretend? You guys... must have been bribed!" Alik stared at them.

Horace, who was thrown to the ground and still pretended to be unconscious, was slightly shocked.

As expected, Alik indeed turned his sight on him.

"Horace, don't you open your eyes to see what's going to happen next?" he said.

Seeing that he could not hide it anymore, Horace had to slowly open his eyes.

The light outside was much brighter, which made him difficult for a moment. But Count Alek's bucket-like belly and his fleshy face were extremely conspicuous in the sunlight.

Behind him were circles of guards surrounding him.

Looking from bottom to top, I felt crowded and shady, and I couldn't count how many people participated in the roundup.

Horace smiled self-deprecatingly.

The city lord looked down on him too much, and he didn't know where the mistake was made.

Seeing a look of despair in Horace's eyes, Alic smiled grimly with satisfaction.

"Horace, I really underestimate you! I almost let you fly away." He approached Horace step by step.

——If those young masters and ladies could be brought in, Alik might be afraid of the enemy.

This thought flashed through Horace's mind for a moment.

But soon, he suppressed this idea.

Those who looked not old last year and might not have grown up yet, how could they be opponents of Alik and other personal guards?

They agreed to their requests only out of kindness and had a bright future in the future. If they accidentally die here because of Alik's crazy, even if Duke Wenche finally cut Alik into pieces, it would be useless.

Thinking of this, Horace remained silent.

Maybe, I... it's over here.

In an instant, he felt the memories of the past flashing in front of his eyes again.

Parents have worked hard to raise themselves, and they have achieved the glory of their noble status, and that—

Missing the neighbor's girl.

"Because you are a noble now, so... I can't be with you, it will delay you." What she said seemed to ring in her ears again.

Too stupid.

Now, I am not a noble anymore.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Horace's mouth, calmly greeting the impending death.

But, at this moment.

A strange movement suddenly came from the side.

"Then, what is that!?"

A small riot occurred among the personal guards.

Alek frowned and looked up at his side.

I saw an ugly puppet wandering around the guards' hats.

It wore a black top hat and a white bow tie. Its face was spliced ​​with rags, but its movements were extremely sensitive.

While crossing the rows of hats, it made a strange sound: "Wuhu~"

It was obviously not loud, but it seemed to be directly transmitted to everyone present.

The moment he saw the doll, Alik was stunned for a second.

But soon he realized something and roared angrily: "Damn it! Damn it!"

He didn't care about Alik who was still lying on the ground, and rushed over and wanted to catch the ugly doll.

Seeing a mountain of meat rushing towards him, Wien was shocked.

Is he so enthusiastic? It seems that his ridicule skills are pretty good.

The doll, which he was manipulating with magic, immediately flew up and avoided Alik's claws.

Without leveraging force, it can float in mid-air like walking on flat ground.

However, the guards who were trampled on their heads just now were not so lucky. They were all red in their eyes and seemed to have lost their minds and were knocked over by their horses.

"Who are you...? What's your purpose?" Alik looked up at it.

The doll paused for a moment, as if he couldn't understand what he said, so he took off his hat and touched his bare little head, turned around, and touched the little tail on his butt with great difficulty. The ugly little face seemed to have a puzzled expression, which could be said to be very vivid.

Alek almost immediately understood what it meant.

He felt even more angry.

"Wait for me! When I catch you, I will tear you into pieces!" Alik roared angrily.

...

"Boom, boom, boom..."

There were continuous loud explosions sounded at the gate of the city lord's mansion.

In the guest room, Chris had just packed up some of the perfumes and accessories she carried with him, and was startled by the sudden movement.

"What, what's wrong?"

The entire city lord's mansion seemed to be shaking violently.

"Earthquake?" She was a little unbelievable. How could the original plot of this animation be changed to by herself? Hello!

"No, it's magic." Tasia's tone was serious.

"From the direction of the magic wave, it seems to be the other side of the city gate..."

As she said that, she looked at Chriss: "Chriss, stay here and Wien for now and don't run around, I'll go and see what's going on."

“Hey?”

Before Chris could respond, Tasia disappeared in a flash.

Looking at the direction she left, Chris was confused.

"What the hell is going on?"

However, since Tasia said not to run around, she should stay with Vien for safety reasons.

She walked outside and looked at the closed door of Vien next door.

"Wine, it seems something happened." After calling him, Chris wanted to push open the door directly.

But the door was locked.

Chris:???

"Winn? Didn't you say we should leave after packing up? What should we do if we lock the door?" Chris felt a strange feeling.

Generally speaking, locking doors is to protect your privacy.

Or, secret.

But in such a short time, does Wien have any important secrets that he doesn't want anyone else to know?

"Ah, wait a moment!" His response came from inside.

For some reason, his voice seemed a bit weird.
Chapter completed!
