After convincing the orc affairs officer, everyone naturally breathed a sigh of relief.
Ronald immediately proposed to rush back to the square to let Orel's clone continue to work to avoid another accident at the last moment.
The orc affairs officer naturally has no objection to this.
Just to be on the safe side, unlike when he went out in the morning, this time Ronald was not alone with the orcs. Even Martha followed them back to the square, leaving Costat alone in the library.
The group of four hurried back to the square.
By the time they arrived at their location, it was noon today.
Although the orcs in [Gezhonglin] have different physical characteristics from humans, they have similar living habits. Noon is the time for them to eat and for some orcs to rest.
As a result, there were much fewer people in the square than in the morning.
Only the orcs who accepted Walter's order were still working diligently to maintain order at their posts to ensure the smooth progress of the singing competition.
Seeing this, Ronald said to the orc affairs officer beside him:
"Okay, you two go up, as long as you maintain the festive atmosphere."
There was no need to say much about Orel's clone, but Walter's eyes were a little surprised when he heard Ronald's arrangement:
"It's just the two of us, why don't you come with us?"
In the view of the Orc Affairs Officer, he is just a puppet under Ronald's control, and the other party should follow and monitor him no matter what. Otherwise, once he has some evil thoughts, the situation will soon be out of the control of the other party!
Ronald showed a generous smile:
"Don't worry, since we have reached an agreement, I will definitely not be the first to break it."
Then he pointed to the judges' bench on the other side of the square, pretending to trust the other party, and asked the orc affairs officer to go back.
"..."
Walter did not continue to speak.
He looked at Ronald and Martha seriously, and without saying a word for the last time, he took Orel's clone and walked back to the judges' table.
The two went back to talk to the people maintaining order at the scene, and then took their seats smoothly.
Seeing that things had reached this point, Martha asked Ronald:
"You don't follow me, maybe it's not just out of trust, right?"
Ronald nodded slightly:
"When people are trusted by others, especially those who control them, the choices they make will always have some tendencies. The current situation seems good, but it is still easy to have twists and turns. This is a small effort."
Martha did not express her opinion on this.
The young priest looked at Ronald, and under that seemingly relaxed and bold expression at first glance, she discovered a hint of determination hidden:
"But judging from your expression, it seems you have other ideas?"
"..."
"Do I have to say it?"
Ronald sighed, and then did not untie the cloth, but held the Sword of Saint Catalina behind his back and showed it to Martha:
"We have already reached this point."
"If Mr. Walter still wants to resist to the end, then I can only come up with a preliminary plan."
The legacy of the saint who controls the will...
Seeing this familiar weapon, Martha's expression at the moment was almost the same as Ronald's, and she sighed immediately:
"Anyway, I hope things don't get to that point."
Ronald replied:
"That's why I give the other person trust, isn't it?"
"..."
After the conversation ended, Ronald and Martha blended into the crowd.
【Gazhonglin】The orcs in the world have all kinds of strange shapes. Even if these two humans are different, they will not attract special attention.
Waiting quietly around the square was their job in the last half day.
On the other side, Walter also brought Orel's clone to the judges' table.
The orcs who were originally here to maintain order immediately stood up:
"Lord Aurel, you are back!"
Orel's clone did not speak, but Walter on the side took a step forward forcefully, and then said:
"Okay, the matters at the palace have been settled. The work of the judges here is back on track. You can continue with your previous tasks!"
Water is a close confidant of Orel.
The orcs who stood up did not dare to say anything and retreated without any suspicion.
Then he and Oler's clone took their seats at the judges' table.
Walter finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The clone of Orel didn't speak just now. In fact, it was a decision he had made early in the morning. After all, this is just a machine that runs according to the settings and does not involve the singing competition. It is best for him to deal with it.
From the bottom of his heart, it is absolutely impossible for Walter to completely trust what Ronald and the others said.
But as a well-informed and powerful person in the city.
In his contact with Ronald and others, he relied on his keen insight to discover the specialness of these outsiders.
Beyond the attitude of worry and deliberation, there is something special.
——That is a confident attitude.
Walt himself is also in this state. It is usually when facing the enemy, he has an absolute advantage, and the opponent is still struggling in vain, Walt will have this mentality.
What does this observation indicate?
This shows that Ronald and others have the trump card to control all situations!
The current negotiation with myself is just a easing choice made by the other party due to certain restrictions.
Right next to the Orc Affairs Officer.
The avatar of Orel, who had returned to his position, had quickly assumed his own identity and continued to take on the job of singing judge.
Seeing this scene, the orc affairs officer frowned.
Ronald and his group, who were watching him in the surrounding square, were gambling.
Isn't this the case with Walter?
He also didn't dare to gamble, bet on Oler's life and death, bet on the truth of the whole thing, bet on the safety of this city!
Under the gaze of the two people in the square, while the restless orcs waited.
Time moves forward slowly.
With the arrival of the afternoon, the square became lively again, and Orel's clone became more immersed in work.
But just when everything went smoothly.
A hurried orc soldier ran over from outside the square and shouted in this direction:
"what happened?"
"Sir Orel and Mr. Walter have never gone back. The palace asked me to come here to see... Mr. Orel?"
The voice of the orc soldiers stopped suddenly.
Because at this moment, he saw Aurel and Walter, who should have appeared in the palace, and it was these two people he was looking for!
——It’s bad!
Walter's back was instantly wet with cold sweat.
Just when his brain was racing, looking for a way to deal with the current situation.
Mixed in among the questions "Lord Orel did not return to the palace?" and "But Mr. Walter said that the matter is over.", the clone of Orel, who was not intelligent enough, took the initiative to respond to the orc soldiers' questions.
"Mr. Ronald won't let me go back."
"So I obeyed the order and followed Walter back to the square."
