lord and his dragon

Apart from his preference for Abel, Negrim has never disclosed his preferences to others.

Although this is not the case, if the leader of this caravan asks other people about Negrim's preferences, he will probably get the answer "The lord likes tall and handsome men", which is why other caravans are giving Negrim When Rim gave gifts, he only gave some rare or valuable things-the lord's hobbies were not suitable for displaying in a big way, not to mention that they couldn't find a taller and more handsome man than the lord's slaves.

But the caravan had found out exactly what Negrim liked.

If it were someone else, Negrim might just take it as a coincidence, but he happened to be passing by Gaydon's caravan, so he must come to check it out.

The conquest of the Borderlands was not smooth. It took Negrim three years to clear up the messy and rebellious forces, but he still couldn't completely believe that the Borderlands were under control. He was sure that some people had escaped. , and even pretended to take refuge in his subordinates.

It is difficult to find this group of people, but there is a breakthrough point, that is, the caravan that once helped Borderlands smuggle under the cover of Rhodes.

In the past, Negrim's methods were still very young, and the news was accidentally leaked when they cleared the land of no man, so this caravan did not appear in the land of no man in those three years, and it was impossible for Negrim to escape He went to find someone outside his jurisdiction, so he could only put this matter on hold for the time being.

But in fact, Negrim has not forgotten this incident. During this year, countless caravans have passed by Gaydon, and each Negrim has personally received him. Everyone thought he was a gift for the caravans. No one knows that Negrim's real goal is to find this last force.

Negrim originally thought that he would have to wait several years before he could catch the flaws of this group of people, but he didn't expect that the other party could not wait first. From the signature of that person "Master of None", it can be seen that even if extremely It is possible to expose everything, and he also emphasized his identity in the communication with the team leader, mostly because he was afraid that his influence would decrease as time passed, so he could not wait to show his feet.

His purpose was probably to make this caravan fall in favor of Negrim, gradually establish a good relationship with him, and then take the opportunity to infiltrate Gaydon's current forces belonging to Negrim, but he never thought that Negrim was not He was not fooled, and directly found out the letters they exchanged.

While Abel lamented his master's keenness and wisdom, he felt aggrieved and embarrassed at the same time. Nigrim didn't say he was looking for evidence, but told him that he was looking for the green diamond. He clearly saw his mood. deliberately playing tricks on him.

But at the same time, Abel felt very hopeless and at ease, because Negrim did not "empathize", and he still liked himself the most in his heart.

Abel looked at the letter with complicated emotions, and then looked up at his master who was sitting on the bed leisurely. After a long time, he sighed, refolded the letter, and handed it to Negrim.

Nigrim blinked in the darkness, he knew that Abel must be able to see his expression, as expected, his dragon sighed helplessly and embarrassed again in the air, Nigrim pursed his lips , reached out and touched Abel's face, and whispered: "How is it? Do you still hate green diamonds?"

After a long time, the face in his palm moved and he nodded.

Negrim laughed and said, "Then lock it in the box and never take it out."

Abel held back, but still couldn't hold back, and nodded vigorously.

Negrim thought he was cute, but he didn't say it out. He just restrained his expression, stood up and said, "The thing has been found, let's go. I don't know if the leader has arrived in the castle."

Abel was worried that Negrim would accidentally knock somewhere in the dark, so he immediately hugged him weakly and said, "I think we should be able to get there before him."

"That's fine," said Negrim, "and let the guards prepare to arrest people in advance."

If the leader of this caravan is captured, he will be able to get information about the last group of people from his mouth. From now on, Gayden will be completely settled down, and there will be no other problems.

The two were talking, and just about to go out through the door, there was a sudden noise in the room, Abel stopped immediately, and Nigrim also reacted belatedly, froze for a moment, and said: "I touched What happened?"

Abel didn't speak, for a long time, he said softly: "No, the voice came from the cabinet, there is another person there."

Negrim was startled, but before he could react, Abel had already protected him behind him.

"Come take a look with me," Abel leaned close to Negrim's ear and whispered, "Although I want you to stay as far away as possible, in fact, my side is the safest place."

Negrim had no objection to his words, and after a "hmm", he followed Abel and walked towards the noisy wardrobe.

As they were getting closer, Negrim could vaguely sense something was wrong. His intuition told him that there was indeed another person in the closet, but it didn't seem like he was lying in ambush and trying to sneak attack them.

Abel obviously thought so too, because he didn't move so cautiously afterwards, but walked forward quickly, opened the cabinet door, and Negrim poked his head out from behind him, although he could see Not very clear, but after getting used to the darkness, I can still see the outline of a person. It is a bound child, about ** years old.

Negrim asked, "What's going on?"

The darkness did not affect Abel's sight. He looked at the child for a while and said in surprise, "It's an elf!"

Negrim was taken aback, and immediately realized something was wrong.

Although there are now occasional non-human races in the marginal forest who come to Gaydon City to do business with humans, these races basically only include orcs and dwarves, and the elves have never come out. How could their cubs appear here? In the room of the caravan leader?

Reminiscent of how this caravan used to smuggle for the forces of No Man’s Land, Negrim almost immediately thought of what this young elf would become afterward—most likely it would be sold to outside nobles at a high price, Be a pet or a pet.

Although I don't know if this has something to do with the "Lord of None", once the adult elves in the Border Forest learn about this situation, unless Negrim uses force, he will never be able to subdue the Border Forest.

Negrim frowned tightly, and his originally relaxed mood became dignified again. He said, "Take him away, and let's go back to the castle together."

Abel responded, and lifted the elf cub that was still struggling with one hand. He didn't care about talking to Negrim anymore. He picked up Negrim with one hand, and jumped down the second floor vigorously. Taking advantage of the darkness, he ran towards the castle without anyone noticing.

Negrim frowned tightly. Regardless of whether this elf cub was a tool that the "Lord of None" wanted to design, he had already seen through it in advance. In contrast, the situation in the marginal forest That's what Negrim should worry about.

When the orc rashly ran to the castle to negotiate with him, Negrim thought it was just something happened in the orc tribe, but it seemed that the situation of the elves was not very good, otherwise how could they be negligent enough to let a cub run out? Marginal forest?This kind of thing has never happened before.

Negrim nestled in Abel's arms. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out, so he had to go to see the elf cub that Abel was carrying.

The elf cub, which is only the size of a human **-year-old child, was tightly bound by the leader with hemp rope, and something was stuffed in its mouth. It could neither move nor make a sound, and Abel didn't have the thought to take care of it. His feeling, only holding the rope, the child was blown by the wind with tears all over his face, probably because he was frightened.

Negrim didn't pay too much attention to the child's pointy ears and overly delicate appearance, but found that the child had long silver hair under the dim light of the moon. Although he didn't have green eyes, he still made Nigrim Graham thought of Abel when he was a child, and he couldn't help feeling concerned.

Negrim patted Abel's arm, and stretched out his hand towards the child. Abel understood his gesture, and despite some reluctance, he still handed the child into Negrim's arms.

Negrim didn't have much strength, but it was enough to hold a child. He pulled the elf's messy hair behind his ears, then reached out and carefully wiped the tears off his face, and said in a calm voice, "Don't be afraid, you Already saved."

The elf froze for a moment, and then whined. Negrim had no choice but to take out the cloth ball that gagged him, but he was afraid that he would cry, so he directly pressed the person to his chest.

Sure enough, the little elf began to cry sullenly on Negrim's body, but after a while, he probably really felt that he was saved, so he relaxed, nestled in Negrim's arms, and fell asleep without a sound up.

This elf is not as warm as Abel when he was a child, but the feeling of being clumped and heavy in his hands still made Nigrim feel familiar. He touched the elf's head and couldn't help but rush to Abel. Said: "He is quite like you."

Abel looked down at Negrim in his arms, and said helplessly, "Please stop teasing me."

Have it?

Negrim raised his head and looked at him innocently.
