City Guards?
Why are these people here?
At first, Count Dulin thought that the disturbance caused by Liz’s capture of Sima had attracted the patrolling city guards nearby.
However, there was one who wore exquisite light armor with silver patterns. Although his figure was not tall and burly, his lean body still gave off a powerful feeling.
In addition to his weathered face, he suddenly looked extremely capable. One look and one could tell that he was a powerful warrior who had been through many battles.
There was probably only one person in the entire Fire Code City who possessed such a charismatic middle-aged handsome uncle.
“Commander Harvey, why are you here?”
Count Dulin quickly got up from his seat. This was a treatment that even Liz didn’t get back then.
After all, one of them was just a little girl in Count Du Lin’s eyes, but the other one was a true legend in Fire Law City. She had the most powerful Fire Law Knights.
“I received a report from a concerned citizen that there are lawless people disturbing the peace here. Sir Dulin, you should know that in the past few days, there have been many major incidents in Fire Code City. Therefore, for your safety, I specially came to lead a team to take a look. ”
* Cough * Pfft…
After Harvey’s words, Teddy couldn’t hold it in anymore and coughed to cover his laughter.
What a warm-hearted citizen!
As the only one who knew the whole story, Teddy was left with endless emotions. Although he knew that the two of them had a different relationship when his brother showed him Harvey’s necklace the night before, he was still very happy.
But… She didn’t expect her brother to have such a close relationship with
Harvey.
Teddy knew that, but the others didn’t.
Of course, they didn’t believe Harvey’s nonsense about ” enthusiastic citizens reporting “.
Count Dulin was not the only one who was thinking quickly about Harvey’s intentions, so was Liz.
The Knights had always been neutral and would not side with any party. This was the motto of the Knights of Fire. The sword of the Knights was only for the people of Fire Law City.
But even so, people’s hearts would inevitably change, even for the Knight Commander and Commander-in-Chief Harvey.
So, could it be…
Liz’s eyes lit up.
Father?
After he had been kidnapped, his father had mobilized all his forces to put pressure on the knights in a fit of anger. Even Harvey had to take the anger of an earl seriously.
And after knowing that he had reappeared at the banquet, Harvey rushed over to check on him?
Then after this…
This was an opportunity!
The young miss was very clever.
Liz did not expect Harvey to speak up for her. She only needed to create the impression that Harvey was on her side. That would be enough to pressure Count Dulin and force him to sign a new bet with Vivian.
Thinking of this, Liz immediately went up to Harvey.
“Sir Harvey, I’m really sorry. My father had to trouble you to come all the way here for me.
Lize seemed to be apologizing, but in fact, she was invisible, showing Count Dulin and the nobles her relationship with Harvey.
As expected, Count Du Lin’s expression darkened.
Because it seemed that no one else could make Harvey come in person except for the one in the room.
He didn’t expect that this little girl would actually use the fact that he was kidnapped to tie Harvey into her camp…
Damn it!
Count Du Lin cursed in his heart.
But who would have thought…
“And you are?” Harvey asked the young and beautiful girl who had taken the initiative to talk to him.
She did look familiar, but she couldn’t remember her name. She was probably the daughter of a noble family.
For a moment, everyone fell silent.
The smile on Liz’s face froze on the spot.
However, as a young miss, she still had the ability to adapt on the spot.
“Sir Harvey, my name is Liz. My father is Count Sisl. I received your blessing at the coming-of-age ceremony not long ago.
Hearing Liz’s words, Harvey revealed a look of recollection. He quickly nodded at Liz as if he had finally remembered.
“So it’s Miss Liz. I’m sorry, I don’t have a good memory. I hope Miss doesn’t take offense.
“Eh? So, you’ve successfully escaped? Then it seems that there is no need to waste the city guards ‘strength to find you. Someone come.
After Harvey finished speaking, he called for his subordinate to pass on the order to withdraw the search and rescue forces. She could tell that Lisis ‘tone wasn’t very friendly.
This was not strange.
Harvey had never had a good impression of the pedantic nobles. As a member of the nobles, Liz was no exception. Especially today, when almost half of the city’s guards were sent to find the daughter of an earl. Although Harvey could not say anything, he was actually annoyed.
Just like the original intention of the Fire Law Knights, the Knight’s Sword was for the people of the entire Fire Law City, and not for the private army of a single noble.
Harvey had never forgotten this.
This was also the reason why he was here.
Harvey’s gaze swept past Liz and landed on a little girl who seemed to have been overshadowed ever since Liz appeared. She had been sitting in the back and had a very low sense of existence..
