Amber Sword-Chapter 782 - 126: The Plot Behind the Scenes
"Damn, that's so infuriating." The noble daughter kicked the wooden wall of the Tulip Ash Inn, but immediately felt a sharp pain, her eyebrows arching like a thin sword: "Ow, ow, that hurts!"
She turned around and saw a black-haired boy and a handsome young man with a finely tailored black suit, wearing mink fur gloves, and a silver embroidered flower on his chest walking side by side. Her eyes lit up as she hurriedly asked, "Luo Nuo, Viscount Alman, what did Lord Legion Commander say?"
The boy shook his head, "He told us to keep a low profile."
"Great," the girl clapped her palms together gently, looking greatly relieved: "So no further investigation, right?"
The somewhat delicate-looking young man listened to the conversation between the two, then glanced at the boy who was half a head shorter than him, smiled faintly, and then turned back to ask with a smile: "Miss Faina, what exactly happened?"
Alman knew well that it was rare for Lady Duchess to fly into a rage and scold the knight captains from head to toe, surely it was related to what happened this afternoon, but the accompanying knight captains would not defy military orders, if there's a problem it would definitely fall on this trouble-making noble girl.
It was he who proposed leaving secretly to tail behind Faina, Lady Veronica didn't object due to the Queen's face, and today he took the brunt of the accountability, ultimately it was his responsibility as the guardian.
However, Alman wasn't anxious, instead, he smiled and squinted at Faina.
"Hmph," Faina was fuming when the matter was brought up: "It's all because of that yokel..." she indignantly described the whole incident.
"That guy is really strong, Count Karenzi was knocked down with just one move. Even the Empire Knights are no match for him." The black-haired boy added after hearing, but although saying so, Luo Nuo didn't take it to heart, it was just an Eruein after all, he was more concerned about the Red Blessing in Brand's hands.
"It's just because the Count underestimated his opponent, besides those Forbidden Army Knights, a bunch of good-for-nothing rich kids, I think they're hardly better than the Border Knights." Faina snorted disdainfully, countering.
Although Alman himself was a Guard Knight, he wasn't angry, instead he asked with a smile: "Could it be such a genius among the Eruein people?"
"At least he was able to directly confront Lord Duke." The black-haired boy answered.
"That was just because Lord Legion Commander couldn't fully exert his strength in that location, moreover that guy had the Earth Sword, it's not a fair victory." The noble girl still seemed unconvinced.
"Saying that, but any of us could barely keep standing under the aura of Lord Legion Commander." Luo Nuo said objectively.
Faina glared at the black-haired boy: "Luo Nuo, why are you always contradicting me!"
The black-haired boy paused, thought for a moment then replied: "I'm just stating the facts, Faina."
The noble girl barely restrained herself from getting incensed by this fool, she snorted heavily and said nothing more.
"I remember Eruein people haven't been having a good time recently," Alman smiled slightly, saying softly: "But it seems they haven't learned their lesson yet."
"Alman?" The boy turned back, furrowing his brows at his companion.
"Don't worry, Luo Nuo, but offending Miss Faina, in any case, is something I cannot tolerate." Alman answered elegantly.
Faina was moved, although no one dared to defy the will of that Female Legion Commander, Viscount Alman was a rising star in the Empire's political circles, known as the new eagle of Kruz. She had heard her father praise this young man for being exceptionally intelligent and cautious, especially vigilant, standing out among young people.
She knew her father seldom praises anyone, but since even her father gave such high remarks, the girl couldn't help but think maybe he really had a way.
Moreover, regardless, at this time Viscount Alman was willing to lend her a hand, it made her feel very comfortable, the noble daughter couldn't help but appreciate and look at him with some expectation.
"How should we proceed, Viscount Alman?" She asked: "Even if it's Viscount Alman, surely you can't defy Lady Veronica's orders?"
"Naturally," Alman smiled: "But there's no need to bother with such minor matters, we don't have to inform Lady Veronica."
