Night Raven Master

Chapter 158 Killing Drama

in the tavern.

A group of mercenaries aren't done with their bragging after the tavernkeeper is out.

Even if the tavern owner is out, there are still a few waiters who can help them. These waiters seem to be used to such things.

A waiter came to the table with a drink, and the mercenaries were still talking about their experiences:
"Trust me, if you'd seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't be saying that."

The mustache mercenary patted the leather armor on his chest, and the indentation of the iron armor on it was very clear:
"It was definitely a dreamlike experience. Even now, I can't forget it. As soon as I closed my eyes, the holy city and the majestic city walls seemed real. I saw powerful priests one by one. Standing on the city wall, he unleashed a powerful divine spell, and wiped out the countless purple monsters. The terrifying giant mouth, the huge fangs, and the ferocious face. The roar of the monsters and the way the priests fought The scene still haunts my dreams."

Holding the wine glass, he sighed and recalled the past.

"Why does it sound a bit like the story the boss told, hiccup~"

The tall mercenary with loose hair said with a blush on his face, "I'm a bard. I've never heard of your story. Hiccup—it's definitely a lie."

"How is it possible!" the mustache mercenary shouted loudly, "What I said is absolutely true!!! I am here."

"Okay, okay!" Another small mercenary said with a playful smile, "Whether it's true or not, just listen to it as a story~"

He touched his waist and took a small pendant from the brass ring around his waist:

"Look at this, this is a good thing - a businessman told me that this thing can cure all diseases! But, he was sick the next day! He was taken to the church for treatment! Hahaha!! !"

"Then why...you still buy it? Hiccup—" the person next to him, who called himself a bard, lay on the table, hiccupping.

"Ah, this." The mercenary smiled awkwardly. He occasionally works as a wanderer part-time.

"Oh—so it's—woo woo." The bard was about to say something when the other party covered his mouth.

"Brother! Don't talk nonsense!" He smiled.

If he was reported to the magistrate and he was arrested, he would have to pay a fine of at least two gold coins to be exonerated. The price of this thing, the merchant said, was only twenty silver coins. The actual value of this thing Three silver coins at most, right?
Ten times, no, should say thirty times the price
He didn't want to pay so much fine for talking too much for a while.

As he spoke, he raised his wine glass and said to the bard:

"Come on! Let me drink to you! May your soul ascend to heaven!!!"

This sentence was suspected of cursing people to death, but the bard couldn't understand it at all, and even raised his wine glass to clink the glass with the other party.

"Ah, okay." The other party raised his glass in a daze, "May I ascend to heaven. I am the Lord's walker in the world, and so are you, and you will ascend to heaven too!"

The others had black lines all over their faces, and the bearded mercenary couldn't help but shook his head, and turned to look at the others:
"Speaking of which, have you heard about the Felek County? I heard that there is another war there."

"I've heard of this!" A small businessman stood up and raised his wine glass and said loudly, "The new Earl Felek is really warlike. He not only led the army to attack the Gray Crystal Swamp, but also Casland to the north has waged war, indeed."

He shook his head, sighing: "I really don't know why that Earl Felek is so belligerent."

"Does he have any grudges with Cass County?" the mustache mercenary asked, "If there is any grudge."

"That's not the reason." The rogue interrupted at this time, "It's because there is a territorial dispute between Cass County and Felek County."

"Decades ago, under the call of the former earl, Cass County launched an attack on Felek County. At first, Felek County won the victory and won some territories. Later, Cass County united with Susie County. Then Felek County launched a counterattack, and then even almost entered the county town of Felek, and was finally blocked by the Earl Felek."

"In the end, it was the end of the peace and compromise of the Earl of Felek, and part of the territory was ceded to Cass County and Susie County."

"Originally, all of this should have ended, but" said the wanderer, "but."

"But what?" The others couldn't help but continue to ask when they heard this.

The waiter standing next to him quickly took the opportunity to refill a glass of wine, and before he knew it, all the people in the inn gathered here, listening to their stories.

Hearing his words, the other two also stopped their conversation, listening to the "probably a wanderer" mercenary say:

"Before the agreement started, Earl Felek encountered a well-planned ambush when he was rushing to carry out the agreement. All the followers of the earl were killed, and the earl himself was also seriously injured."

"Later, Susie County and Cass County sent troops again, defeated Felek's entire army, and occupied more than one-third of the territory of Felek County. The earl suffered no harm. recover."

"As for now, the new Earl Felek has inherited the position, is he planning to take revenge?"

"Of course, I only know so much. I just went to Felek County City and worked as a temporary waiter. I heard a certain noble lady say it."

"Miss Noble." The little businessman clicked his tongue twice, looking at this wanderer who had nothing to do with being handsome.

The other party just shrugged his shoulders: "That's just the daughter of a noble knight."

"Hahaha--"

"You men are really annoying." A female mercenary next to her looked disgusted, "How many women you have hooked up as a talking point."

The little businessman shut his mouth in embarrassment, while the wanderer replied unceremoniously:

"Then you can also show off how many men you have slept with!"

"I'm really sorry." The fair-looking female mercenary sneered, "I don't like someone as ugly as you."

"I"

"You guys are really capable of arguing." The bearded mercenary didn't want to bother with them anymore, and chatted with the businessman.

The businessman was obviously also very happy, and drank another glass of wine, and had a few glasses of wine with Mustache.

The guard in front of the castle gate breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, Steward Flo didn't pursue it."

Speaking of which, the baron's previous policy of restricting purchases is quite good, much better than other lords.

But I don't know why, some guys are not satisfied recently?

What did the Lord Baron say that should be sent to them for free?How can there be such a good thing.

It's really hard to understand.

I still care about them very much, and gave each of their guards a few extra silver coins, but they have to sign some confidentiality agreement.
Shaking his head, the guard, who didn't understand these things at all, continued to yawn: "Master Guard, come back soon. I'm going to change shift soon. If the Master Guard returns after I leave, there will be no wine."

He looked helpless: "Why don't I go to the tavern today?"

"No, no, no." He turned his head to look at another guard next to him, "Kurt, do you want to go to the tavern today? What's wrong with you?"

The other party's eyes became a little red, and his body was trembling.

"Hey, Kurt, is it too cold? Are you shaking like this?" He was a little puzzled, but he felt that the other party was shaking because he was too cold, so he said half-jokingly.

However, the next moment, his head suddenly hurt:
A voice sounded——

"Kill all the townspeople, kill all the townspeople."

Kill. How can it be.
He resisted the pain, but his resistance became weaker and weaker, and finally, his face became indifferent:

"Yes, master, as you ordered. Kill all the townspeople."

He drew out his long sword and walked towards the street from the gate of the castle.

One by one the guards took to the streets.

At some point, the wanderer and the female mercenary also came over, drinking and drinking, and the relationship between the few people obviously became warmer, so they asked the businessman:
"It's obvious that the north is more prosperous. Why do you still come to this place?"

This is not a rich area.

"I originally wanted to go to Rose City. There is a duke in the city. The future development of the city will definitely be as big as the county towns of other dukes, and it will even be as prosperous as the northern port!"

The businessman replied helplessly.

"But... I miscalculated the time."

"It's already winter. If you want to go to Rose City, you have to go through the wilderness where a blizzard may occur at any time." The wanderer waved his hands, "I dare not do that."

"Yeah." The businessman nodded, "So I gave up and continued on my way. I plan to stay here for a while, and go there again if I have a chance."

"Rin Dong," he sighed.

"Rin Dong!" The others also sighed.

At this time, the female mercenary said:
"I have heard a legend."

As soon as she said something, she suddenly stopped. The screams and panicked voices from outside the street made them all stunned.

When they ran out of the street following the sound, they found a terrifying sight.

Guards broke into the homes of the townspeople one by one, stabbed them through with long swords and spears, dragged their bodies to the street, and threw them into the snow.

"In the end what happened!?"

The mercenaries and the townspeople who were drinking in the tavern were immediately relieved of their drunkenness in the cold outside, and the horrifying sight made them fully sober.

"Who can tell me what happened?"

They didn't notice that the eyes of some townspeople standing behind them gradually became dull, and then gradually filled with killing intent.
