Yate City, in the Marquis' Mansion.

The four guard knights held long swords and faced the man in butler uniform in front of them with vigilance.

Their intuition told them that the man in front of them had extraordinary strength!

Ryan also saw that, unlike those rotten knights during the day, these guard knights still had a few tricks up their sleeves.

It seems that Dylan also understood that the strength of those knights was not good, but he cherished his life, so he deliberately kept the elite knights around him.

I have to say that this is quite confusing, and it can easily attract enemies to assassinate you, and then liquidate you in one fell swoop.

Dylan hid behind the knight guard. Seeing that Ryan had not made any next move, he said in surprise:

"Who are you and what are you doing here?"

While speaking, the four knights also began to approach Ryan step by step.

Ryan looked at Dylan indifferently, slowly raised his hand and reached into the inside of his butler uniform.

The four guard knights thought that Ryan was about to pull out some secret weapon, so they quickly stopped, got into position, and were ready!

However, under the cautious eyes of everyone, Ryan took out a small badge from his arms.

Dylan thought it was the crest of some family, so he squinted his eyes and took a closer look.

After seeing the appearance of the badge clearly, Dylan suddenly broke into a cold sweat!

What I saw was that the badge was engraved with a soaring eagle, and its two claws were holding a knight's sword.

Eagle with sword!

This is a badge specially carved by the eldest prince. Anyone who sees this badge will feel like he is seeing the eldest prince in person!

Dylan, who reacted very quickly, quickly knelt on one knee after seeing the badge clearly. The knee collided with the floor and made a loud sound. The pain made Dylan's expression slightly distorted.

Looking at the badge, the knights were startled for a moment. They first turned to look at Dylan. After seeing that Dylan was already kneeling on the ground, the knights followed suit and knelt on the ground.

This is also the norm in the Hedley Empire system. The knights under the nobles only obey the nobles themselves. Even if they meet the king, the knights are not allowed to kneel without the nobles' instructions.

Of course, if a knight behaves disrespectfully, the noble will also bear responsibility.

The cold sweat left on Dylan's forehead almost flowed into his eyes, but he did not dare to wipe it away, but said with a smile:

"Sir, if you want to see me, just identify yourself to the guard and I will come to greet you. Why bother pretending to be a subordinate of the Duke?"

"I just don't want to be too ostentatious."

With that said, Ryan glanced at the four knights in front of him.

"Don't worry, sir. They are always next to me even when they sleep. They are never far away from me. There will never be any rumors!"

Hearing this, Ryan raised his eyebrows slightly. Should I say it or not, he is really an old man, so discerning.

At this time, Dylan continued: "Sir, I wonder what your sudden visit here means?"

"Did you search the Axi family's mansion during the day on the pretext that the Axi family secretly hid forbidden books?"

"So that's why you're here, my lord!"

Dylan suddenly smiled knowingly:

"Don't worry, sir. We will always keep an eye on the only daughter of the Aki family. After confirming that she possesses the banned book, we will hand it over to you including the person and the book as soon as possible. This matter has nothing to do with me!"

"No, I came here to tell you that there are no banned books in the Axi family, so you don't need to search anymore."

Ryan looked at Dylan and said calmly: "Also, I am very dissatisfied with the attitude of your knights when they were at Aki's house!"

Hearing what Ryan said, Dylan's pupils shrank slightly at first, and then he quickly shouted to his bodyguard knight:

"Go, immediately tell the knights who went to Aki's house during the day to take off their armor from now on and let them go to the stables of the mansion to feed the horses!"

At this time, Dylan still doesn't understand that the Axi family has found a backer!

As Dylan finished speaking, the knights immediately stood up.

Ryan looked at Dylan with a smile and suddenly raised his right hand.

"Stop!"

Dylan immediately asked his knights to stop, his whole body almost soaked in cold sweat.

In fact, Ryan also saw that Dylan was so anxious to issue orders because he was actually protecting those knights.

However, Ryan didn't want this matter to be revealed just like that.

After looking at Ryan for a moment, Dylan took a deep breath and said to his guard knight:

"Go and tie those knights over to me, quickly!"

The four bodyguard knights took action quickly. Soon, the knights who had gone to the Aki family's mansion during the day were tied up and sent here without any resistance, which was enough to show the gap between them and these bodyguard knights.

The knight captain's upper body was even naked, and he kept shouting along the way.

The moment he saw Dylan, the knight captain's face suddenly fell: "Uncle, what is going on?"

Dylan ignored the knight captain and said respectfully to Ryan:

"Sir, they are all here now, and now they are at your disposal!"

After hearing what Dylan said, the knight captain just noticed Ryan.

The moment he saw Ryan, the knight captain suddenly panicked. Isn't this the butler from Aki's family during the day? !

His own uncle, the Marquis! What do you want to call him? grown ups?

The knight captain couldn't help but think of the strange aura that Ryan exuded when he faced Ryan during the day.

Although he vaguely thought of something, the knight captain still refused to admit it and immediately struggled hard:

"Uncle! He is the butler of an earl's family! He can't be a big shot! Don't be deceived by him!"

"you shut up!"

Dylan glared at the knight captain angrily. He was stumbling all the way. His ability to read people was not much better than this guy's.

The knight captain immediately fell silent.

"You said, they are at my disposal?"

Ryan glanced at the knights kneeling on the ground, and there was an evil smile on his face.

Moreover, this evil smile is actually more natural than the smile Ryan usually shows, as if this is the real Ryan!

Seeing Ryan's smile, the knight captain felt uneasy and hurriedly looked at Dylan with pleading eyes.

"Tomorrow morning, at the market, let's publicly execute him for the crime of long-term oppression of the common people."

Ryan spoke in a very calm tone, as if he was talking about an insignificant matter.

But when the knight captain heard this, he almost peed.

Is this something a human can say? !

"I am a relative of a noble. What will happen to those civilians even if they are killed by me? This cannot cure my crime at all!"

Being held down by the guard knight, the knight captain struggled hard and shouted with a red face.

Dylan also gritted his teeth slightly, knelt on the ground, and said:

"I also know about his bullying of civilians, but it would be too much to execute him late because of this, right?

He offended you during the day, and he didn't know your identity. You might as well let me take the responsibility for him, okay? "
