Chapter Fourteen(1/4)

In this magnificent and solemn cathedral, a scream broke the sacred and solemn atmosphere.

With this exclaim, everyone's attention was focused on Mr. Hyde and the others.

"Oh my goodness, it's Ribo."

Another low scream came from the crowd.

Ruibo looked in the voice and saw at a glance that Miss Fanny stood among the crowd, with a god of tension and concern in her eyes, Sui.

"Oh my god, come here quickly and get a little more. It seems that someone is injured here."

The clergyman shouting loudly ordered.

As he said that, the clergyman walked quickly towards Mr. Hyde.

Only then did Ribo notice that the man was obviously the Master Chief mentioned by Mr. Hyde and Eckert.

In fact, the image in Ribo's mind is completely inconsistent.

He originally thought that the head of the school should be a wise, peaceful, dignified and steady elder, just like his teacher, Magic Masque.

However, the old man in front of him could not imagine going together with that image.

The old man should not be as old as Mr. Hyde.

His tall figure was at least half a head longer than Mr. Hyde. Although he was thin, he did not look thin. The wide skeleton made the old man look like a giant, with a wide-haired clergyman wearing a robe that was not suitable for him, as if empty.

With a dome hat symbolizing the head of the head, Ruibo guessed whether there would be a piece of chirping hair hidden under the hat.

This sect master has an incomparable appearance. His high cheekbones make his face angular. His long face and sparse beard always remind people of the appearance of a goat. Unfortunately, his beard is not as neat as a goat.

The wide forehead made the head look disproportionate, and at the same time, it also widened the distance between the eyes.

A big nose became the most conspicuous part of his face.

Looking at this big nose, Ruibo secretly felt a little funny.

A loud voice also marks a big mouth.

The two ridiculous front teeth made the big mouth become a very eye-catching organ.

Could it be this person, known as the most respected elder in the entire Serthburgh?

Ruibo felt a little confused.

"My friend, are you injured?"

As he approached, the elder asked again.

"Oh, I'm so happy to see you. I thought we couldn't come anymore!"

Mr. Hyde said with emotion: "My loyal servant is injured, I think you can help deal with it."

"It's very convenient, Pire, take this gentleman down to rest and treat this gentleman by the way."

The elder ordered, and after saying this, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Ribo with a serious face. After a long time, he asked, "This is Little Ribo, is it? My friend."

"Yes, I thought his identity was hidden very well, but I didn't expect..."

Mr. Hyde showed a look of helplessness and sorrow.

"My friend, I dare to swear before God the Father, I have absolutely no leaks."

The elder said in panic.

"My friend, how could I doubt you?"

Mr. Hyde shook his head and said.

"Yes, but others can't reveal all this. You take such a great risk to take in this child. You will definitely not be the leaker. However, the loyal butler, in my opinion, is also a cautious person. He should not be able to reveal the secret of the little master. This is strange. Is it terrible that there is a magician hidden behind the scenes of those thugs?"

The elder began to talk to himself.

The answer between the elder and Mr. Hyde was shocked by the nobles around who heard all this.

"Elder Mondi, can you tell us what happened?"

A fat old man stood up from the crowd, and two very grand old men stood up behind him at the same time.

"Earl Fessin, I will introduce you to you, this," said the elder, pointing to Mr. Hyde, "It is Caveelle Egret, Lord Hyde, who is my greatest friend, Lord Hyde's name. You should have heard of him as the most outstanding diplomat and explorer in our Kingdom of Francis. He is deeply trusted by His Majesty the King and the Bishop, and is also one of the most important friends of the Holy See."

"Two years ago, the temporary guardian of the last legal heir of our respected Lord Lord, the Mr. Butler, who is a loyal model, had a premonition that his life and his little master were threatened. In order to preserve his master's blood, he entrusted the young master to Lord Hyde."

"Before making such an arrangement, he told me about this matter, maybe, in the eyes of this butler, I am still a trustworthy person."

Hearing what Elder Mondie said, the Earl Fesnan looked at Ribo in a daze and said for a long time: "So, that is to say, the young man in front of us is the heir to the real Earl Medin and the son of the real Miss Lisa, but what happened to that corpse?"

"Maybe it was the despicable plan of the thugs. I think this is normal. Now it seems that these thugs are not that simple guys. They have strong power behind them. We don't need to be surprised what methods they can use." The elder said.

"Maybe, that's really the body of our young lord's heir?"

A medium-sized bald old man behind Earl Fesnan said.

"Mr. Mathil, are you doubting my honesty?"

The elder said coldly.

"No, no, no, I absolutely don't mean this. I just made an assumption. Of course, this possibility is the least. Perhaps, the body was a child adopted by Mr. Butler to cover up."

The Lord Mathil said with a smile.

"You are not only insulting me, but even the dead. The loyalty and kindness of the housekeeper are obvious to all. Moreover, I have always been in contact with him and have been to that mansion. I have never seen any children. I think that if there is such a young man in that mansion, Earl Feisinan should be the clearest. Didn't the adults always send people to monitor the house?"

The elder's words made Earl Fei Sinan a little embarrassed. In fact, all of this was arranged by the old lady Mei Ding, and I didn't know the details very well, but it would be too embarrassing to say that I knew nothing about it.

Earl Fesnan had to bite the bullet and said, "Yes, this is a huge and stupid scam. I'm sure there was absolutely no teenager in that house."

Earl Fesnan's words undoubtedly show that he is on Mr. Hyde's side, which is not difficult to understand.

In fact, he, the agent lord, did a rather boring job. Everything about Serthburgh was not under his control. His authority as the agent lord was even less than that when the old lord was alive.

When the old lord was the first official assistant, the Count wanted to be in the wind and rain, but now all the power of Sethburg was divided completely by the two people standing behind him.

The Director of Finance, Mathil, not only controlled the financial power of Sethborough, but also was attracted by the officials who were in charge of internal affairs. Everyone knew that this guy had already reached the court, and behind him was secretly supported by His Majesty the King.

As for the military chief Laiwei, this bastard relied on his military power in Sesie Fort and did not take him seriously at all. Fortunately, he also knew that whether His Majesty the King or His Majesty the Prince sent someone to take over the authority of Sesie Fort, he would be swept out, so he stood on his side a little.

The acting lord quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. In his opinion, letting a child sit in the lord's position is not a bad thing. He can give orders in the name of the little lord. Although those two guys would not be willing to let him do this, as long as the little lord sits firmly in this position, the old lady Meiding will definitely support the little lord with all his strength.

In Serthborough, Miss Medin has absolute prestige.

Earl Fesnan carefully considered all this, and he did not think that there was anything great about Lord Hyde. Although the little lord was probably more willing to listen to him, it was absolutely impossible for a civilian nobleman who had no power and no influence in Serthburg to do anything in this place where he attached great importance to the hierarchy.

However, the only problem now is how to make the military chief stand on his side, which is quite a headache.

And this is something that has to be done. This guy Mathil must be on the opposite side of himself, and this is undoubtedly a matter of no doubt.

In this case, Lai Wei's tendency appears extremely subtle.

Earl Fesnan turned his head and asked another old man: "Earl Laiwei, what do you think of this matter?"

"There is no doubt that it was a conspiracy, and I have seen it long ago. It was a clumsy conspiracy, but I am also not sure that this young man was the heir of our respected lord."

The old man said with a cold face, "Of course, I do not doubt the honesty of the sect leader. This is beyond doubt. I have no intention of disrespect for the dead. In fact, I also wish that such a loyal butler would have had such an accident in this whole two years. Looking at the appearance of these people, they should have been attacked. I want to ask, are the cruel murderers who can kill a small team of well-trained mercenaries, this time they have become kind or weak? Even an old man and a child cannot be killed. By the way, Lord Hyde, I want to ask you a question, where were you attacked, how many people have attacked you, how many people have you in total, what are the casualties?"

Although the attitude of the military chief made Earl Fei Sinan very dissatisfied, his words could not grasp the flaws at all. It seemed reasonable to ask these questions.

"If you have any doubts about our thrilling journey, you can send a team of cavalry to Pidon quickly. We were attacked at a rest place between Pidon and Barth. If no one dragged the body away, your guards would be able to see dozens of deadly corpses lying in the deep forest. I have a more convincing evidence here, a head; the head of the leader of the attackers." Mr. Hyde greeted, and Keller took off the skin on his waist and gently held it in front of the military commander.

For Count Laiwei, who is in charge of military affairs, he doesn't care about corpses, heads, etc. He has seen a lot of these things as a soldier and an excellent knight.

The old man did not take the skin. He stretched out his thin and long fingers and carefully untied the tether on the top of the skin and opened the bag. He took a look inside and it turned out to be a bloody dead man's head.

"What is this?" said the military chief coldly.

"Have you ever heard of the name Lidoke, who is from Sibai?"

Mr. Hyde said slowly.

"Li Duoke... This name sounds familiar."

Lai Wei frowned and thought.

"The power of the 'restorm' is very powerful, and it is the best master of using bows and arrows among the Xibai mercenaries."

A young knight standing next to the military chief interrupted.

Mr. Hyde and Count Laiwei looked at the young knight at the same time.

"I remembered that there was a Xibai mercenary who was good at archery, called Lidoke. What you mean was the famous mercenary and dozens of his subordinates who attacked you. Haha, it is even more difficult for me to imagine how you led this young man out of the siege."

Earl Laiwei showed a mocking smile on his face.

"We did not break out of the siege, and we could not do this. Our horses were definitely faster than the speed of bows and arrows, not to mention that we had no intention of escaping. Although there were only six people, we were absolutely confident that we would annihilate these outlaws. Ribo made the greatest contribution in this victory."

Mr. Hyde said with a smile.

"Oh my god, your lord is saying that our 'little lord' has solved all the attackers by himself, and there is even a famous mercenary among these attackers. Do you mean that?" The chief of military affairs smiled even more mockingly.

"My father-in-law, I think this is not surprising." A nobleman in his thirties stood up from the crowd.

Rebow is no stranger to this person, he is Baron Oneel who once appeared at Baron Lona's banquet.

The baron walked to the military chief and quietly said something in his ear.
