"The Lady of Misfortune is actually a being with magical talents?" Nalant opened his eyes in disbelief.
This is just a simple identity change, but it can subvert the perception of the entire continent.
"Sir, do you want to take this girl of misfortune to Maiye Village for disposal now..."
"No!"
Nalant watched the thin girl frown and thought for a moment before rejecting Captain Quick's proposal.
Perhaps, this girl is the key to solving the invasion of dark creatures in a week.
"this……"
Quick was stunned.
Not only him, but the serfs around him were also stunned.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Nalant understood that he was the only one who knew the truth about the Daughter of Doom, and they would definitely not be able to understand it!
So he changed his story and said: "Bring her back to the castle first. I'm a little tired today. I'll deal with her another day!"
The truth must not be told, at least not in front of so many people. After all, once it is leaked, the consequences are unpredictable.
"Yes, sir!" Although it was difficult to understand, Quik, as a subordinate, did not hesitate to execute it.
"Wait a minute! Lord, you can't do this!"
However, at this moment, an objection came from behind the crowd.
The crowd parted, and a middle-aged man in a silk dress rode forward on a horse.
The horse under him was actually a real war horse, and it instantly outshone the mixed-haired horse Nalant was riding.
"Anthony, the civil administrator, has met the lord!"
Riding a war horse, the person who outshone Nalant was none other than the Civil Affairs Officer of the Storm Territory!
It stands to reason that as the lord of the Storm Territory, Nalant has the power of life and death in the territory, so no one should dare to go against his wishes.
But the problem lies in the fact that Narant obtained the title and territory by participating in the earl's political performance competition.
When he came to the Storm Territory, except for the horse under him, all Nalant's belongings and subordinates were assigned by the earl, including the butler and the only guard.
The guards and the housekeeper had been given to Nalant and would follow him for the rest of his life, so they were considered loyal.
But this Civil Affairs Officer Anthony is different. The Civil Affairs Officer has only stayed in the Storm Territory for three years, and he also has the task of supervising the development of the territory and reporting monthly political achievements.
Therefore, this Anthony is still considered to be the Earl's man, and he also has an honorary knighthood. He is considered an honorary noble and is not afraid of Nalant at all.
"Anthony, what do you think?" Nalant's voice immediately turned cold.
Anthony is not a good guy. He was sent by Viscount Alding to make him sick. He only arrived in the territory two days ago and Anthony is causing trouble for him.
As for Viscount Alding, he is the younger brother of the earl. Nalant was assigned to this 'land of doom' because of Viscount Alding's good deeds.
Even Viscount Aldin privately sent five guards to Anthony on the grounds that the Storm Territory was too dangerous, which made Anthony even more unscrupulous in front of him.
"Lord, the Lady of Misfortune will bring disaster to the territory. You actually put the entire people of the Storm Territory in crisis just because you are tired. Don't you know that the longer the Lady of Misfortune exists, the more likely it will be?
Is it dangerous?”
Anthony's words hit home and instantly made the serfs, who were full of fear of dark creatures, uneasy.
Although in most cases, as long as the Lady of Doom is burned before the night of the meteor shower, dark creatures can be avoided, there are cases where dark creatures still invade after the Lady of Doom dies. Although this is just an example, people
Remember, the sooner you kill the Lady of Doom, the better!
This was not over yet, Anthony continued to say in a strange tone: "In addition, Lord Lord, you have been in the territory for more than two days, but you have not even visited the territory. How can you be tired?"
"That's right! The lord has never visited the Storm Territory, so how can he be tired from staying in the castle?" For a moment, the serfs also boldly raised such questions in their minds.
"Lord Anthony, the lord fell into a coma due to fatigue and fever on the way here. He only regained his strength at noon today. Please clarify your identity and who is the lord of the Storm Territory!" At this time, someone on the side said:
Captain Quick stood up and immediately refuted Anthony.
Although Captain Quick also expressed his frustration at being assigned to the 'Land of Doom'.
However, being able to serve as a guard captain under a lord was an opportunity, so he also hoped that his lord would become a prosperous person, and it would be best to become a hereditary noble in the future, so that their status would increase.
"Quick, you are just a small guard captain without a title. If you dare to be disrespectful to me next time, I will go to the Tulip City Noble Council to complain against you!" Anthony looked down on Quick, who was a civilian at all, and turned coldly towards him.
The voice threatened.
"That's enough! Anthony, this is my Storm Territory. I have the final say on everything in the territory, including you!" Nalant shouted loudly throughout the audience, and his eyes turned cold as he looked at Anthony.
stand up.
And at this moment, perhaps feeling Nalant's anger, the purple elf who had been staying quietly in his arms suddenly moved, and then half of its head emerged from his collar, with its big watery eyes.
Looking around curiously.
"Ah, what is that?!"
"Yes...it's an elf! Or a purple elf!"
"It's really an elf. This is the first time I've seen an elf! It's so beautiful!"
The elf exuded a soft light and instantly became the focus of attention in the dark night. At this time, both the serfs and the guards exclaimed in surprise.
Even children as young as three or four are aware of the existence of elemental elves.
Because in order to collect elves, the lords have posted reward orders in their territories all year round. Whoever can find an elf will be rewarded with gold coins.
A gold coin in this world is equivalent to the value of 10,000 yuan in the previous life. It can allow a serf family to live a prosperous life. Faced with such a temptation, it is impossible for the serfs not to be tempted.
"Why did you forget the little guy? Isn't it just right to bet on Anthony's mouth!" Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, an idea flashed in Nalant's mind, "Anthony, didn't you ask me why I am tired? This is why I am tired.
The reason is the purple elf I just found!"
"Also, do you know what the elf represents? It means luck, and it means that the God of Glory has favored me, so I am not worried about bad luck coming to the Storm Territory!"
Narant's tone became aggressive, and Anthony was momentarily speechless.
Elemental elves are not easy to find. It takes a lot of effort and energy to find them. At the same time, finding the elves does represent luck.
"Are you speechless? Civil Affairs Officer Anthony, now I order you to disappear in front of me immediately, otherwise I will not mind exercising my rights as a lord, even if I am punished by the Earl in the end!"
Anthony's face changed uncertainly. He couldn't understand why the baron's useless second son, who was timid and cowardly before setting off, suddenly became strong. Finally, under Nalant's sharp eyes, Anthony said to the five guards behind him: "Let's go!"
Afterwards, Anthony left the crowd in despair.
"Quick, let the serfs disperse and take this girl back to the castle!" Nalant's tone softened at this time.
"Yes, sir!"
Quick was very happy at this time. His lord actually got an elemental elf the day after he came to the territory. This was a very good start.
Soon, after being dispersed by the guards, the serfs who had seen the elf for the first time returned to Maiye Village with satisfaction.
…
"Sir, you are back!"
Nalant took Quick and others back to the castle. After hearing the news, Thomas was already waiting with a servant carrying a copper basin.
He stepped forward and pulled the reins of the horse, and when Nalant turned over and dismounted, Thomas quickly handed over a wet towel to Nalant to wipe his face and hands.
After enjoying the attentive service of the butler, Nalant said happily: "Thomas, take that girl to the inner castle, let her wash up and then send her to my bedroom!"
"Yes, sir!"
Thomas glanced at Vivian, who had her head lowered the whole time. He did not discover her identity as the daughter of misfortune, nor was he surprised that the lord asked a girl to be cleaned and sent to his bedroom.
This kind of thing is very common among nobles, and the nightlife of nobles is often so unpretentious and boring.
"Sir, my subordinates have also retired to make arrangements for the vigil!"
Watching Thomas bring the Daughter of Doom into the inner castle, Quick wanted to persuade her, but finally gave up and just looked at his lord with complicated eyes.
On the way, everyone thought that their lord had a fever that did not subside due to excessive fright. Now it seems that this is not the case. After all, there are really not many nobles who are not brave enough to dare to let the daughter of misfortune spend the night in the bedroom.
"Go for it!"
Nalant didn't realize that he had become the "devil in lust" in the eyes of his subordinates, so he sent a message and entered the inner castle.
