usurping the throne

Steven stayed at the nobleman Saye's house for one night, and at noon the next day, the people sent by Saye came back.

Someone came to report that all the foxes in the village of the foxes had disappeared.

Hearing this report, Saye finally let go of his secretly worried heart, and at the same time pretended to be furious, and pretended to ask the fox clan what was wrong.

The city is neither big nor small.

If something really happened, it must not escape the eyes of the residents in the city.

If you want to investigate, no matter what, it will be investigated quickly.

And there is a romance involved.

The noble fell in love with the commoner at first sight and came here to propose marriage.Driven by the spread and fermentation of this kind of story, many people are actively looking for a bride for the infatuated and romantic nobleman.

Soon, someone reported that they saw someone from the mercenary union pulling a lot of wooden cages yesterday, and the brigade left the city.

It was also said that a red tail was seen flashing past the outside of the enclosure of the cage.

Sayer did not receive a report from Allen at this time, thinking that the mercenary group had all been destroyed outside the city.

Seeing that there is no proof of death, the theory that the mercenary union will destroy the fox clan has become a conclusion, and he is secretly happy.

So they immediately sent a team of people to chase after the mercenary group that had 'walked away', and sent people to the mercenary union's station on the other side.

Those who rushed to the mercenary union found that the door of the mercenary union was open at this time, and there was no one left behind inside.

This mercenary union unexpectedly became an empty house at some point.

Saye didn't care when she learned about it, and took the opportunity to search for the good things inside and keep it for herself.They sent people to evacuate the mercenary union that was empty, and then found people to station directly in the village of the Fox clan.

Occupy that piece of land openly.

On the other hand, Alan from the Chamber of Commerce has not shown up until today, not because he was too afraid of Saya to go out, but because of other reasons.

As an orc noble in the city, Satsuma has always been in contact with the two major chambers of commerce.So Allen knows more about Summer's personality.

Once he informed Satsuma of the failure of the ambush of the mercenaries, their chamber of commerce would definitely be charged with kidnapping the fox clan by Satsuma immediately and kicked away severely.

Summer could no longer rely on him, and Alan was forced to retreat, so he had no choice but to put all his eggs in one basket!

Steven, who was on the Satsuma site, was acting according to Ede's plan. Early in the morning, he suddenly received a note from the attendant in Saya's house.

The note is thoughtfully written in dwarven script.It is the circulating text within the royal court.

Steven glanced at it, and after understanding the content, he got up and burned the note.

Such a reaction from Allen had not been foreseen in their plans.But... In any case, Allen's reaction was really surprising.

The general meaning of the note that Allen secretly handed over was very clear. The fox girl he was looking for, Allen knew, wanted Steven to meet Allen at the agreed place.

Living in the town, the appearance of royal court nobles is naturally clear to everyone.Allen came to Satsuma's mansion last night, and he knew better that this nobleman from the royal court was the object of Saya's fawning.

Allen simply gave up the two ways of going to Saye to intercede, or finding someone to remedy and then killing the mercenaries.

On the other hand, he and Louis fell apart, and it was not enough for a while to organize and absolutely suppress the force of the mercenary union.

So Allen planned to start directly from Steven, a royal nobleman.

The more intelligent a person is, the more he likes to gamble with huge sums.This kind of gambling, won billions of dollars, lost, heavily in debt.

Allen is smart and confident.It's a pity that his gamble just bumped himself into a bigger game.

Steven took some time and left alone to go to Ellen's date in secret.

The agreed place was under a tower.

When Steven arrived, Allen was already waiting under the tower.

Seeing Steven walking towards him, Allen's eyes lit up.A successful businessman is of course also a successful salesman.For them, the difficulty is not that they cannot sell their products to customers, but that customers do not want to listen to them.

As long as the two establish a preliminary communication, everything is possible.

"Master Steven!!" Allen greeted him enthusiastically, bowing and saying hello. "Hello."

Steven reserved and advantageously replied "Hello." Then he asked urgently. "You said, do you know where the girl who was abducted by the human mercenary group is?"

"Of course I know..." Allen looked a little embarrassed, "But if I say it, you might be dissatisfied..."

"No." Steven said decisively. "If you have anything, just say it."

"I just heard by chance that the entire fox clan has suffered such a catastrophe..." Allen hesitated to speak. "Don't you think it's a bit strange? Why would human mercenaries take away an entire village? There aren't many of them? Why did the fox clan disappear so suddenly?"

Steven wrinkled his whole body and became serious, "You mean...the catastrophe of the fox clan is related to the nobles in the city?"

Just wait for your words! !Allen waited until the big fish took the bait.So while excited, the expression on his face was even more embarrassing. "Actually not, I shouldn't doubt the nobles in the city..."

"No, it's very possible!" Steven interrupted Allen. "How could all the people in a village be kidnapped overnight without making any noise? This is impossible. The village is not far from the city? Unless someone deliberately blocked the news, why didn't anyone in the city know about it?"

"The nobleman you're talking about? Who is it?" Steven looked directly at Allen.

Allen trembled, and finally cried out, "Master! It's Mr. Saya!! He wants the concentrated ore under the Fox clan, but he doesn't want to provoke Mr. Pentax, so he ordered the Mercenary Union, the people of the Wind Speed ​​Chamber of Commerce and the part of our Chamber of Commerce People went to participate in the hijacking of the Fox clan! These people did it secretly without telling me, and I didn't know it at the time."

Neither of them was telling the truth, but they both tried their best to convince the other party that they were telling the truth. In the end, even they couldn't tell if there were points in what they said.

Allen became happier as he talked.I don't think this nobleman from the royal court is too good-natured!

I had made various plans at first, thinking that persuading him would be a difficult task, but after a little fiddling, Steven caught up with his train of thought.

Allen felt that he was about to love Steven to death!

Steven waited quietly for the man to say why he had come.

By the way, he showed the anger he should have, and his worry about the girl from the fox clan.

When I was about to wait impatiently, I finally heard the hint from the other party shyly. "When I heard the news, I came to see my lord last night, but it turned out that Saye..."

A united front has been formed, so the status of BOSS Saya has been lowered again and again, and finally the title of "adult" has been directly abbreviated.

Steven: "Sayer didn't allow it, and threatened you?"

Allen felt comfortable all over.This feeling is like someone who has been praising him for thousands of years suddenly finds that the prankster is praising him.This person can understand every sentence in seconds and respond immediately.

Of course, while Alan was comfortable, he also doubted the identity of this person, but as soon as the flame of doubt appeared, Alan extinguished it.Since the orcs can recognize that the coat of arms on his body comes from the royal court, then the fact that he is a nobleman of the royal court has not escaped.

A royal noble came all the way to plot against him?

...Don't make trouble!

So Allen continued to pretend to be an innocent person to express his grief and indignation.The ramblings finally reached Whedon's territory.Said that Saye may find him trouble, and hope that Steven can become his new backing.

In order to repay Steven for protecting him, he will send people to chase back the mercenary group. It is best if they can find the girl Steven is looking for. Wouldn't the chamber of commerce be better?
