Skretil's Ignorance Walker

“When faced with the invasion of the Albigensians, the new young king did not take it too seriously. He knew that the Albigensians were just trying to take advantage of his unstable regime to gain some benefits.

In order to repel the Albigensians and consolidate his position, the young and energetic king chose to lead the army in person, leading the powerful and elite Frannia Royal Army to the front.

As for what happened later, you also know all about it. There is only one problem, that is, the agreement between the old king and you was only known to the young new king and us. He and a large number of nobles were captured at that time, and we were trapped in the north, so the rest of the people did not know about it.

When the West Island City was breached, the central administrative agency of Frannia was also paralyzed, so naturally no one came to continue to send you money. And the current king didn't know about this agreement, so he didn't summon you during the entire war.

As for now, firstly, the war is almost over, and we don't need your help anymore; secondly, Lord Wildy and I know that you definitely don't want to be involved in these things, so we didn't tell the current king about this, and you don't have to continue to bear that oath now."

After Lina finished speaking, she smiled gently at Lu Ren, as if to say, "We are good to you?"

"is that so……"

Although Lina finished the story in just a few words, the past few years will not be as easy to turn over as she said. Lina and the others were trapped in the north and must have had a hard time, but now it is all over. They did not deliberately mention these things in front of Lu Ren, probably because they did not want Lu Ren to worry about them.

Lu Ren looked at Lina and wanted to say something, but at this time Antrela came over.

"Master Lu Ren, Master Wildy wants to see you. Do you have time now?"

Hearing that Wildey wanted to see him, Lu Ren also had this plan, so he stood up and responded:

"Well, take me there."

After saying that, Lu Ren turned and looked at Lina who had not yet stood up.

"Let's talk next time. I have no plans to leave Frannia at the moment, so I have plenty of time."

"Ah."

Looking at the backs of Lu Ren and Antrela as they left, Lina sat in her seat and looked at the scenery in the distance. At this time, Frannia had not yet recovered from the war, so it looked a little dilapidated.

But Lu Ren still decided to stay because this was an agreement between her and Lina, and Lu Ren was not someone who liked to break a promise.

"Lord Wildy is inside, so I won't disturb you."

After bringing Lu Ren to the outside of Wildy's study, Antlera said goodbye to Lu Ren. Lu Ren also asked Winnie to wait for him here first, and then knocked on the door.

"come in."

The voice of Wildey came from inside. This voice sounded familiar to Lu Ren, but also a little strange. Compared with the voice in Lu Ren's memory, this voice seemed to be a little hoarse and less energetic.

Lu Ren pushed open the door and entered the room. As soon as she entered, she saw Wildi sitting at the desk.

At this time, Verdi was no longer the young handsome man in Lu Ren's memory. His face was full of vicissitudes and determination. Although the sunshine and vigor of a young man were still there, they were almost invisible.

There was some visible stubble on Wildy's chin and lips, which made him look a few years older. The most important thing was that Lu Ren found a horrifying scar on Wildy's left eye, which extended from his forehead to his face and pierced through his left eye.

Even standing at the door, Lu Ren could feel the magic power on the scar, a kind of magic power that Lu Ren had never seen before, which was constantly eroding Wildy's body at the scar. But Wildy's own magic power suppressed it, so that the magic power could only stay in the scar area and could not spread outward.

"Long time no see, I thought we would never meet again."

Seeing Lu Ren standing at the door blankly and looking at him in silence, Wildy took the initiative to speak. Hearing his words, Lu Ren immediately came back to his senses.

"Yes, I heard that you were in danger, so I rushed over immediately, but it seems that I am still late."

As Lu Ren spoke, he walked up to Wildi and the two continued their conversation across a desk.

"I believe you already know most of the things. This time it is indeed very dangerous..."

As he spoke, Wildi touched the scar on his left eye. He had now become a one-eyed man, and this scar would be a warning that he would never forget.

"I'm sorry I couldn't save your estate."

Compared to Lina and the others, Wildi didn't talk much about the past. He went straight to the point of discussing some more realistic issues with Lu Ren.

"Don't worry about that. It's a pity, but there's nothing we can do about it."

Lu Ren was also very sad when he mentioned this, but what could he do? He couldn't cross the channel alone and kill all the Albians, right?

"Although you didn't save your manor, I have been managing it for you under your entrustment. Up to now, all the taxes from the manor are here."

After saying that, Wildi took out a magic crystal card from the drawer and placed it in front of Lu Ren.

"This contains all the income from your manor, which should be more than a hundred gold coins. Fortunately, I have kept it relatively safe. Now it is time to return it to its original owner."

"This……"

Seeing this magic crystal card, Lu Ren was a little embarrassed to take it. She had calculated the income and expenditure of her manor, but the result was that the income was not enough to cover the expenses. The more than one hundred gold coins here must have been taken by Wildy to cover all the expenses of his manor, and then all the income of the manor was kept.

Although he had not spent a long time with Wildi, Lu Ren knew clearly that he was an upright man, but his integrity seemed a little too much.

If it was before, Lu Ren would definitely not accept the money, but it was different now. Lu Ren had no place to live and had to consider her future life, so even though she was extremely reluctant, she still accepted the money.

"I'm sorry to trouble you..."

Lu Ren shamelessly put the magic crystal card into her pocket. She was very embarrassed now, but fortunately, Wildi did not make fun of her for it.

"It's okay. After all, I promised you. By the way, do you have a place to live now?"

Wildi is also a person who values ​​efficiency. This is a habit he developed in the process of dealing with those nobles. Unless it is necessary, he doesn't want to say a word.

"not yet."

"Then would you like to stay at my house temporarily?"

"That's not a good idea. Besides, my lovers are still on the way. They can't all stay at your house then, right?"

After hearing Lu Ren's doubts, Wildi took out some paper similar to a contract made of enchanted parchment from the drawer and handed it to Lu Ren.
