Mia and Hidir took nearly [-] survivors of Pangwei City on a long journey to Shult City. Among these people, there were men and women, old and young, and they all needed food and drink along the way.

Although most of the Pangwe people are very rich, these people do not have much property on them, because most of the Pangwe people who are reluctant to part with their wealth and return home to get money have been buried under magma or volcanic ash.

In the entire Pangwei City, almost all of the huge wealth was buried deep underground.

A certain Phantom Thief felt extremely sorry for this.

In particular, Pangwei City is also a very famous city of gems. When the Moon God Festival is approaching, countless rare treasures are concentrated there.

This is great, all of them were buried, including those three priceless gems.

"If I had known I wouldn't have given you the gem back then, I would have taken it away myself."

Sidir once said to Mia with raised eyebrows.

"So, Isaiah, you owe me a lot of money, and you must pay me back in the future."

After all, as a thief, doing business at a loss is an insult to his profession.

Shidir is quite professional.

However, the boy in front of him was just like his nemesis.

The only loss-making business he made in his career as a thief, all fell on the young man.

He had no choice but to comfort his professionalism with the reason that he was making an investment in the young man and would be able to get a good reward in the future.

But whether this investment is a loss or a profit, only God really knows.

Everyone needs to eat and drink. Some old people, children, and sick people need to ride horses, and some basic living materials such as bedding, kettles, and clay pots are also necessary. When Mia was worried about this, Sidir left mouth, and then took out a small bag of platinum coins from his pocket as if by magic.

A gold coin is enough for an ordinary civilian to live for more than half a year, and a platinum coin is a hundred times more precious than a gold coin, and because it is rare, its actual value is higher than the specified value.

This small bag is definitely more than enough to sustain the lives of nearly ten thousand people for more than ten days.

In Mia's shining eyes looking at him, Sidir brushed his long fiery red hair uncomfortably, but he still couldn't resist the young man's clean eyes, and told the truth.

"Hey, these gold coins are not mine, to be precise, they are actually yours."

"what?"

"Didn't your parents ask me to take you away? Before that, your father stuffed me with this and begged me to take good care of you, saying that these would be your living expenses in the future... huh?"

The phoenix eyes were raised slightly, and Xidir touched his chin, a smile appeared in his eyes, and those fox-like eyes aimed at Mia.

"Isaiah, tell me, is this your dowry given to me by your parents?"

Mia: "..."

He snatched the purse away.

"I said, let's discuss it. This way, I am saving you and escorting this group of people. You should leave half of it for me."

Hidir said so, but he smiled when he spoke, and he was not angry at a glance.

"Really, the older I get, the more stingy I am. Even when I was young, I knew that I had to pay for my medical expenses."

Facing someone's fox smiling eyes, Mia also looked back with a crooked smile.

"Why, you want to share half of my dowry?"

Sidir: "..."

He wanted to molested the young man but was defeated by the thieves who turned against the general. He watched the young man take a whole bag of platinum coins for himself with resentment.

Well, my heart doesn't hurt.

It doesn't hurt at all.

Really.

……

…………

Grass!

I always feel like I made another loss-making deal!

…………

In this way, the huge and bloated team traveled all the way north.

It took more than ten days to buy food and daily necessities in cities and villages along the road before they finally arrived at Shult City in the Northland.

The appearance of this huge team near Schulte City naturally alarmed the people in the city.

The soldiers in charge of staying in the city sent a team of knights to investigate, and brought the old priest and dozens of people who claimed to be priests of the moon god into the city.

However, even if he knew that these were a group of refugees from Pang Wei, he would not allow others to enter the city.

After all, not long ago they were still fighting against Wangcheng, if this was a conspiracy by Wangcheng and sent people into the city pretending to be refugees, it would be troublesome.

You know, this is not just a few hundred people, but nearly ten thousand people.

Moreover, Prince Sardis and Commander Nadia both led the army to fight against the Ston people who took advantage of the fire. At this moment, the number of troops staying in the city is less than one-third of the usual number.

The reason why this general was entrusted with important tasks and stayed in the city was because he was a cautious and mature person.

At such a time, it is impossible for him to let such a large number of people who don't know the details into the city.Therefore, after careful consideration, he first placed these nearly ten thousand people in a training ground somewhere outside the city.

While the generals defending the city were busy arranging these refugees, Mia and Hidir avoided the scouts and stood on a distant hill, watching everything from afar.

After arriving near the city, Mia talked to the old priest alone for a while, and then left.

Afterwards, the old priest gathered everyone together and warned them not to mention the existence of Mia, and told them that this meant Mia.

Along the way, everyone has long regarded the young man who saved them as an existence of faith.

He bowed his head and followed his ears, and looked forward to it.

Although they felt uneasy because of the boy's departure, but hearing the old priest say that this was what the boy meant, they quickly agreed and swore that the curse would never reveal the boy's existence.

"You managed to bring them here, why don't you take them into the city yourself?"

"I don't show my face."

"why?"

"Refugees in a state of disunity are called refugees, a group of refugees with a leader who makes everyone obey... what do you think it should be called?" Mia said, "When the time comes, you and I will definitely be 'invited' in like the old priest. In town."

The old priest and others probably don't care about personal freedom, he doesn't want to be locked up in a room.

"Especially if your identity is exposed, I will be in more trouble with you."

"Wait, aren't you a big shot?"

Mia replied angrily: "Someone needs to recognize a big shot."

Now that Sardis and Nadia are not in the city, he can't guarantee whether the generals staying in the city have seen him.

"and……"

Mia stared at the crowd in the distance.

"I can only bring them here, no more, I can't do any more."

He didn't intend to rely on these Pangwei people with his status as a young priest, so that they could get preferential treatment in Shuerte City.

He won't protect them all the time.

These people who have lost their homes should rely on their own strength to survive in this city.

"That's right."

Mia's words made Sidir nodded in agreement.

He is well aware of human dependence and greed.

It is not a good thing to give too much favor.

Maybe this group of people is grateful to Mia now, but if Mia keeps helping them, they may ask more and more, and even take it for granted.

The little guy is not very old, but he has a clear understanding of human nature.

Siddir thought.

I really don't know what I've been through before.

While looking at the young man beside him, he thought in his heart.

The boy stood on the hill with his head slightly raised, as if he was feeling the breeze blowing across his cheeks.

The breeze blew his pale golden hair, and the fine ends of his hair brushed against his blue eyes, like the sea and the sky blending into one.

His eyes were fixed on the big horned deer chewing the leaves not far away, revealing a bit of tenderness.

Mia turned her head and looked at Shidir.

"Sidir, won't you ask my name?"

Now that he knew that he was adopted by those 'parents' because of amnesia, Xidir should know that what he told him back then was not his real name.

However, for so many days, although Xidir often teased him with his identity, he never asked his name.

"Okay, I should tell you my name."

"Isaiah."

"No, I..."

"The so-called name is just a symbol of a person. What was your real name and identity before, or should you say? To be honest, I don't really care."

The phoenix eyes are smiling, reflecting the shadow of the young man in front of him.

Siddir leaned over.

He held the boy's hand, and the fiery red hair slipped from the boy's wrist.

"To me, you've always been..."

He lowered his head, and his warm breath passed over the skin on the back of his hand as he spoke.

The lips of the red-haired phantom thief with a deep smile fell gently on Mia's hand again.

"My Isiah."

Sidir, who kissed the back of the boy's hand, raised his eyes, his phoenix eyes were shining, the waves were like the sparkling water of a lake, and there was a moving shimmer.

"Besides, what's the point of having the same name as someone else?"

The red-haired fox smiled and said,

"A name that is exclusive to me can better demonstrate my style and my specialness with you."

He seemed to have made up something in his head, and then nodded with satisfaction.

"Thinking about it this way, I suddenly feel a sense of superiority."

Mia: "..."

After a few seconds, the boy laughed.

"Okay."

The boy's smile was bright, like a vast expanse of clear sky.

He said, "Then I'll give you this particularity, Mr. Phantom Thief who once stole me."

........................

Although the Pangwei people who were placed in the training camp outside the city felt that life was a bit difficult, at least they had no worries about food and clothing. Although the living place was very simple, it was much better than camping in the wild when they were displaced.

Moreover, the old priest would come back to appease them almost every day or two, telling them that this was only temporary, as long as the master of Schulte came back, he would arrange for them to enter the city, so the Pangwei people stayed in the city obediently. In the crude training camp.

A few days later, the people of Pangwei were pleasantly surprised to find that the gate of Shuerte City was opened to welcome the returning army.

The colorful cloth strips waving in the hands of people on both sides of the avenue and the flower petals flying all over the sky are announcing the victory of this war to everyone.

It is said that the invading Ston army was once again defeated by Prince Sardis, was completely defeated, and fled back to the country miserably.

Great victory.

There was joy in the city of Schulte.

In this festive atmosphere, time slowly came to the night.

In the dark night, the City Lord's Mansion is still brightly lit.

Unlike Wangcheng and Pangwei City, although the City Lord's Mansion in Schulte City is also very grand and majestic, it is not gorgeous. The oval shape is simple and clear, and it is integrated. Although the appearance is grand, there is no decoration.

Moreover, its outer wall is not only tall, but also particularly hard.As long as the four-sided suspension bridge is lifted, the wide moat surrounding the Santo's Mansion can turn it into a small fortress.

If the city of Schulte falls, the soldiers can continue to guard the city lord's mansion and resist until the end.

As in the past, on the night of returning from the expedition, the city lord's mansion held a dinner to celebrate the victory.

Successive victories made all the soldiers participating in the dinner smile, and the atmosphere was extremely lively.

Although the generals were also of noble origin, after many years of fighting in the Northland, they had long lost the pomp and reserve of those nobles in the royal city, and all of them were masculine and strong.

Just by looking at their faces and eyes, you can tell that those who can stay here and have a place are all people with strong hearts and perseverance.

For these people, the only thing that can convince them is great strength and merit.

On the battlefield, you must always tense your nerves. Now that you are back in the city, at the celebration banquet, the generals will naturally relax.

They chatted and laughed recklessly, hugged their favorite singer or dancer, drank wine to their heart's content, and had fun to their heart's content.

In the upper seat of the banquet hall, Sardis slanted his body and sat lazily on the large reclining chair.

Fine strands of blond hair fell obliquely to one side of his jet-black mask.

He propped his upper body on an elbow in one hand, and held a pure gold wine glass in the other.

He lowered his head, half of his face was covered by the shadow of his slanted forehead hair.

During the lively dinner, only the surroundings of Sardis gave off an unusually quiet feeling.

He sat back on the recliner, drinking glass after glass of wine.

It has never stopped since the banquet began.

The eye covered by the black mask and the shadow of the forehead hair could not see clearly, but the exposed eye was slightly squinted, showing a little drunkenness.

His posture is lazy and casual, but even so, no one dares to underestimate him.

As long as he is there, he gives people a great sense of coercion.

Like a golden lion lying lazily on the ground, no matter how carelessly it looks, its every move, even its breath, still makes people tremble with fear.

No matter how unrestrained the soldiers among their colleagues, when they came to Sardis to toast him, they were all respectful and did not dare to be presumptuous in the slightest.

Because every soldier present who had fought with Sardis clearly knew how powerful and terrifying this seemingly young prince was on the battlefield.

The sharp gun in his hand drank the blood of countless Ston people.

Under his horse's hooves, corpses piled up like a mountain.

Sardis, whose name makes the people of Ston tremble.

It was precisely because they saw the power of Prince Sardis with their own eyes that the soldiers of Schulte City chose to follow him without hesitation, instead of the crown prince who had never set foot in the Northland once.

The sound of the harp echoed in the banquet hall, and young and beautiful dancers danced to the music.

For the toasts of his subordinates, Sardis never refused.

In other words, even if no one came to toast, he would drink one cup after another without stopping.

Sardis' expression remained calm, unchanged from the beginning to the end, and looked calm.

No one could tell whether he was drunk or not at the moment.

However, according to the weight of the wine he drank, if he was not drunk, then his drinking capacity would be too terrible.

It's not that there are dancers or maids who are trying to reach the sky in the banquet hall, secretly approaching him. They know their low status and dare not have too many thoughts, but even if it is just a one-night affair, it is enough.

You must know that in these years, no woman in Schulte City has ever been on the prince's bed.

If they can come out on top, that would be quite something to show off.

But every time they got closer, Sardis' half-drunk glance would make them tremble.

After coming down several times, Sardis's body became quiet.

On the other hand, Nadia is also drinking.

He also drank a lot, with obvious drunkenness on his face.

Several generals came over and spoke to him in a low voice.

"Your Excellency, Your Highness seems to be unable to fully enjoy every banquet."

"Your Excellency, you have spent the longest time with His Highness, what kind of woman His Highness likes, you can tell us."

"In this way, we can also choose a woman who suits His Highness."

These generals drank a lot, and they were all quite drunk.

Alcohol strengthens people's courage, so they dared to ask these words secretly.

"That's right, that's right, we know His Highness must have a high opinion, but every time we are the only ones to enjoy ourselves, it's inevitable..."

"Your Excellency Nadia, please tell me, what kind of woman can be in the eyes of His Highness?"

At this moment, Nadia was very drunk, and his rough face and neck were all red.

Seeing someone questioning, he glanced at Sardis above with a pair of drunken eyes.

"woman?"

He hehe laughed.

It's just that no one could see that there was a bit of bitterness hidden in his smile.

"Prince, he..."

He said in a daze, "He doesn't like...what kind of woman...he likes..."

Only halfway through, Nadia lay down on the table and fell asleep.

Several generals are drunk and confused, you look at me, I look at you.

"What do you mean you don't like women?"

"Oh, I see, Hiccup... doesn't like women, so... Hiccup, likes men?"

"Is that so? No wonder His Highness doesn't find a woman every time at a banquet."

"Ah, His Highness must be hard to say."

"It's because we overlooked that there are only dancers and divas at every banquet, so we should find some... hiccups... find some..."

"How about we give His Highness a surprise tonight?"

"Hi'er, yes, steal, secretly!"

As a result, several drunken generals reached an agreement that made their intestines green with regret after they sobered up.

…………

A carefully selected young man with beautiful face, sharp eyes, delicate body and soft body was wrapped in a soft blanket, and there was not a strand of hair on his body.

He was quietly sent to Sardis's bedroom, where he waited quietly.

……

I do not know how long it has been.

The night is dark.

Sardis walked steadily towards his bedroom.

……

At the same time, under the silvery moonlight.

With the assistance of a phantom thief who is good at sneaking into heavily guarded places, a certain boy sneaked into the city lord's mansion without making a sound.
