454 The Escorted Earl

Maple Ross Territory, Besare.

Recently, several rumors have emerged in this city known as a military base.

"I heard that the Maples family's residence was broken into?"

"I heard that Lord Maples had a duel with someone in the training ground?"

"I heard that the training ground was destroyed for unknown reasons?"

"I heard that Lord Maples was in trouble before, and now he's back?"

I don't know since when, gossip like this gradually spread among Besare, and it became more and more popular.

No one knows where these unconfirmed rumors come from.

No one knows whether these messages are true or false.

Many people began to rush to inquire about this information, but after that, they all received warnings from the Maples family.

"No matter who you are, they are not allowed to continue to spread unconfirmed news, otherwise they will be punished for espionage."

After the Maples family made such a warning, the news from all sides that was spreading like wildfire was suppressed.

This makes those people who are interested in spreading news, inquiring about information, and collecting some unknown information feel angry, but they can no longer make a fuss about it.

This is Besare, the place closest to the neutral zone and the battlefield between the two countries. Now such a major piece of news has appeared. In order to confirm the authenticity of these news, those who are hiding in the dark naturally quickly

A lot of people came up and wanted to make some fuss.

Unfortunately, precisely because this is Besare, which is known as a military base, the Mapoulos family, knowing full well the consequences of allowing the news to spread, immediately issued a heavy order to kill those who were planning to come forward to cause trouble.

It was pressed down again.

However, even so, some news inevitably reached the ears of these people.

For example, the half-destroyed training ground is there, and anyone can see it. As long as they are willing, anyone can find that this training ground is empty, and the interior has been severely damaged and can no longer be used.

, the knights and soldiers training here have also been dispatched to other places to train elsewhere.

For another example, the youngest swordsman in history - Li Ge Brighaut. His arrival was so dignified and dignified that some people even saw the butler of the Maples family in the peaceful town.

When the invitation letter was sent to him, coupled with the fact that the Maples house was broken into and Raven had a duel with others, any smart person would be able to guess what exactly happened now.

As a result, various messages began to be sent out through various channels one after another, some to other territories of the Kingdom of Jinas, and some to the Kingdom of Rebru and other countries on the Akasha continent.

It made many people pay attention to Besare.

These people really want to know what kind of dispute the newly promoted young swordsman, who is said to be defeated by the flash of lightning, has with the Zhenguan swordmaster Raven Mapros, which caused so many disputes between the two.

Things come up.

Even the royal capital has paid attention to this matter, and has specially sent people to consult in the past few days.

However, these people would never have thought that this matter would have derailed in the second half, and would no longer have anything to do with the conflict between Li Ge and Raven.

Under such circumstances, the conflict between Li Ge and Raven has basically been regarded as non-existent. Today, the Maples family will no longer want to conflict with Li Ge because they can't afford it.

Rige no longer targets the Maples family regarding Offilit's matter. Since then, he has moved into the peaceful town and has been sorting out various intelligence and harvests to tell the story of Raven and the Maples family.

Leave it behind.

Nibald has been spending time at Maples' house these days, studying the various collections of books, documents and ancient secret treasures brought back from Maya.

The little princess Liz has been following Li Ge, but she has been distracted and dazed from time to time, and she still hasn't been able to sort out her mood.

In this way, about three days passed, and suddenly one day, Nobang, the housekeeper of the Maples family, came to the door.

"Please, Your Excellency Brighaut, go to the Maples house to meet. Your Majesty, the Marquis, he has something he wants to discuss with you."

After saying this to Convenience, Li Ge was startled.

"Want to discuss something?"

At this point, what else is there to discuss?

Li Ge murmured in his heart.

However, he still accepted the invitation and took Liz with him to the Maples house.

This is a serious visit.

Therefore, this time, Rige did not bring the whole carriage directly into the Maples' residence like he did last time. Instead, he passed through the gate and entered the Maples' house in an orderly manner.

The people of the Maples family seemed to have received the news and instructions in this regard a long time ago. Therefore, even if they saw Lige's carriage this time, no one set up their spears and stopped the carriage like last time.

Inspect the carriage.

Therefore, the carriage engraved with the coat of arms of the Franzel family was sent in unimpeded by the knights of the Maples family, and directly arrived at the residence.

The butler Nuobang came out in person and greeted Li Ge and Liz in front of the main door of the residence.

Li Ge and Liz were also led by the housekeeper Nobon to the top floor of the Maples family residence and entered a vast meeting hall.

Here, as if he had been waiting for a long time, Raven appeared with Kaz, Axel and the DiGordo brothers.

"Are you coming?"

Raven stood up and nodded towards Li Ge.

This is a rare thing.

At least, that's the case for those who know Raven.

That the strong and domineering Zhenguan Sword Master would subconsciously stand up to greet a young man like this was definitely a surprising thing in the past.

However, the three Kaz brothers present did not think there was anything wrong with this. Apparently, they all felt that Li Ge had such qualifications.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Tell me." Li Ge didn't waste any time and asked Raven directly: "Why are you looking for me?"

Raven did not answer this question immediately, but nodded to Kaz next to him.

"Bring it with you!"

Kaz understood and shouted towards the door.

Not long after, the door of the meeting hall was opened again, and several heavily armed knights from the Maples family filed in. They actually escorted a person in from the outside.

"Let me go!"

The man was dressed very luxuriously, but he was being escorted by knights at this time. This treatment seemed to make him very angry and humiliated, so that he was struggling all the time.

"snort!"

Just when Li Ge felt puzzled and puzzled by this situation, and was guessing who the person who was being escorted in was, Raven snorted coldly, and a powerful aura rose up from his body.

The man who was struggling suddenly froze up. Looking at Raven standing there, his hideous face suddenly turned pale.

"Sister, brother-in-law!"

The man shouted like this, and with a puff, he knelt down.

"Brother-in-law?"

Hearing this title, Li Ge was stunned for a moment, and then he understood.

As far as he knew, there was only one person who would call Zhenguan Sword Master Raven Maple Ross his brother-in-law.

This man's sister is Raven's wife.

This man's son is Raven's nephew.

He is the manager of the Iron City of Kaludi, the head of Count Hatit's family, and Count Hatit herself.

That's right, this person is Liton Hatit, Ophelia's biological father.

"Don't call me that." Raven looked at his brother-in-law coldly and said in a stiff and indifferent tone: "I don't have any relatives like you."

Not only was Raven's attitude indifferent, but Kaz, Axel and DiGordo were all looking at their uncle coldly, not at all like they were looking at relatives who were related to them by blood.

"Why, why!?" Liton may have seen something from the attitudes of Raven and others. His face became paler, but he still shouted: "What did I do wrong to make you treat me like this!?

"

This sentence only received a faint response from Raven.

"I already know what your son did."

As soon as these words came out, Liton suddenly froze.

Raven continued to speak calmly.

"He bullied men and women in Kaludi, and more than once used the name of the Hatit family and even the Mapros family to coerce others, murder the men who were against him, and occupy the women he liked. He was lawless."

"Using his identity, he accepted bribes from nobles and businessmen from other places, enriched his own pockets, and hid gold and silver treasures worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins."

"Secretly selling counterfeit weapons and magic props, cooperating with illegal organizations, cooperating with criminals, and even cooperating with thieves, supporting more than a dozen thieves' gangs to burn, kill and loot."

Raven, who was counting these crimes in detail, stared directly at Liton, as if he wanted to behead him, and his indifferent voice began to be filled with anger.

"The most unforgivable thing is that he also colluded with an unknown mysterious organization, using the refugees from Mapros as a bargaining chip in the transaction, regardless of the life and death of many innocent lives, in order to complete the employment again and again, and let the unknown

The mysterious organization works for itself!”

"I see. No wonder there are no clues about the disappearances in Mapros territory. It turns out there are bureaucrats like you secretly assisting!"

"Are you trying to say that you don't know all this?"

"Liton Hatit!"

With Raven's suppressed anger questioning, Liton's whole body started to tremble.

"I...I..."

Count Hatit couldn't even speak clearly, her lips were trembling, her face was as white as paper, and she looked frightened that something had happened.

Raven became angrier as he spoke.

"The leader of Mapros is not doing well. I originally thought it was because the people from the Rebru Kingdom have been wreaking havoc on this territory. I thought this was the main reason."

"It wasn't until now that I discovered that this territory not only has external troubles, but also internal troubles!"

"Cruelty to the people of the territory, acceptance of bribes, protection of children, illegal transactions..."

"You are so good, Liton Hatit, you have done so many good things behind my back!"

"Tell me, what should I do with you?"

Having said this, Raven was already exuding murderous aura.

Yes.

He was ready to kill Liton.
