Chapter 120 I am just sick!
Raven returned to the hall and took off his hood, shaking off the snow from his shoulders, with an aftertasteful smile on his face.
Only when he is by Lux's side can he truly relax, as energetic as a monster that has absorbed enough yang energy.
"Raven——"
Nancy's voice suddenly rang in the hall, and the intensity made Raven's ears hurt.
He looked up and saw Nancy standing on the stairs glaring at him angrily. He was suddenly confused: "What's wrong?"
There was no pretense in Raven's appearance.
But it was this unpretentious confusion that completely ignited Nancy's anger.
All kinds of memories came to her mind. She went to find Raven personally and sent Jenny to find Raven. However, Raven kept saying he was busy and kept pushing away!
Even if I had a meal with her, I would only eat two dishes and leave in a hurry, completely ignoring that she still had a lot to say.
She endured it because she knew that Raven had many things to do, and she also believed that Raven could understand and be moved by her consideration, and would definitely make amends and take time out to play with her for a day.
However, this kind of waiting was completely in vain today. Raven did spare a lot of time and spend a lot of thought...
But it was not used on her.
Only it didn’t work on her!
Looking at Raven's appearance, he had never cared about her at all!
Nancy's hands were grasped on the railing, her breathing began to become rapid, and her eyebrows were twisted tightly: "What did you do?!"
Leaven also noticed that Nancy's mood was wrong and stopped smiling. : "I went out to do something..."
Before he could finish speaking, Nancy rushed down in two steps: "Say, here we are. What is it that makes Baron Raven, who is so busy every day, go out late at night and come back in the middle of the night? "
Regarding the matter with Lux, Raven didn't want to say more about it: "It's a private matter."
"What's the private matter, tell me clearly." Nancy hugged her shoulders and stared into Raven's eyes.
This aggressive attitude made Raven start to become irritated. He didn't want his good mood to be wasted here, so he walked upstairs casually: "It has nothing to do with you."
Unexpectedly, Nancy suddenly said Pushing his chest: "You are not allowed to leave until you explain clearly!"
There are many things to deal with every day when you open your eyes. When meditating, you have to think about the next day's schedule. It's so easy. Relax for a while and still be confused by others Miaodi interrogated, Raven was really aroused: "Nancy! Why are you so crazy in the middle of the night?"
Nancy showed a sarcastic sneer: "Am I crazy? Yes. , I’m going crazy!”< br>
“For Lux, a priest who is destined to devote his life to the Lord of Light, you created such a huge momentum, the trees and silver flowers, so beautiful! The entire Eagle Territory can see it!”
"Aren't you very busy? It turns out that what you are busy with every day is not official work, but thinking about how to please your mistress and how to please that bitch!"
"Ha! You treat people as treasures, but they may not see it. I got you! I ran back from the church in despair. I’m very happy, right? ?”
Raven’s chest heaved violently, and he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth:
“It’s true that dogs can’t change their eating habits!”
Nancy was stunned. I didn't expect Raven to say such words: "What?"
"I said your old habits are hard to change!" Anger surged up, and Raven's words were merciless:
"I know what you think. I go to accompany Lux instead of you. Do you think it's wrong?" Balance, but have you ever thought about why I have to accept an invitation?”
“Just? Because you are the daughter of the Fox family! ?"
"The world does not revolve around you, nor does it run according to your thoughts!"
"You are right, I can squeeze in some time every day, but I will never spend it on you!”
"Do you know how much I hate your 'noble games'?! Being with you is not relaxation, but torture!"
"You still feel how wronged and how miserable you are? Thoughtful? That can only impress you!”
“I, a baron, only need to handle matters. , you have a lot to think about as an idle person, don't you?!"
Raven's voice echoed in the hall, causing all the male and female servants who had been listening with their ears to retract their heads. The soldiers standing guard at the door were looking at their noses, mouths and hearts, and for a moment they hated themselves for having ears.
Actually, Raven's words were mostly out of anger. He didn't really hate Nancy.
But at this stage, Nancy, who is also emotionally focused, of course will not distinguish it. Her eyes widened and she nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I finally told the truth!"
"But Lei Wen, you are too self-righteous. Do you think I invited you because I have a crush on you?”
“It’s because of me. I'm bored, I just want to kill time! Do you really think you are special?"
"You are right, I just like to play 'noble games', I just like to waste time, and I just like to control you. life!”
“Because I am naive, selfish, and willful!”
As she said that, she suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Raven's arm and started to walk out.
Raven shook his sleeves: "What are you doing?"
Nancy frowned and said: "I am the daughter of the Fox family, and I am also a willful eldest lady! Now I want to Let me show you my willfulness!”
“Now, stay with me! I’ll go out and go find Lux with you! Don’t you like to have another show like before? I’ll watch it with you until dawn!”
Raven! He shook his arm suddenly and broke away from Nancy's hand:
"Are you sick!?"
Nancy was thrown aside, knelt on the ground, holding her red right hand, and shouted loudly: "Yes, I am sick, I am sick. "Fantasy disease!"
Leaven resisted the urge to help him and sneered. : "I fantasize about marrying a prince, becoming a princess, and becoming a queen in the future, right?"
"No..." Nancy looked at Raven with eyes full of pain and loss: "I have fantasized about it since I was a child. , someone can love me seriously!”
"..." Raven felt his heart pounding and he was speechless.
Seeing Raven staying there, Nancy pursed her lips and shouted again:
“I hate you!”
Nancy didn’t finish her words. He stood up and rushed out of the hall like a bird.
"Miss——"
Jenny, who had been listening at the back, rushed down from the second floor. She glanced at Raven with a complex expression, with complaints in her eyes, and then quickly chased after him.
The hall suddenly became quiet, and only Raven's heavy breathing could be heard.
Leaven stood there, watching the night when Nancy disappeared, his eyebrows tightened, his lips slightly pursed, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.
"Lord Baron..." Petty stepped forward and said in a low voice: "How about I go ask Miss Nancy to come back?"
"..." Raven was silent for a long time. He sighed, shook his head, and slowly walked up the stairs.
This night, Eagle Castle was eerily quiet.
Early the next morning, just after dawn, Raven heard a loud noise.
"Petty, what's going on?"
Petty, who was waiting outside the door, walked in and bowed: "Baron, it's Miss Nancy's servant who is packing things."
Leaven nodded and stopped talking.
After washing up and having breakfast under Petty's service, Raven returned to the study to handle some desk work.
The noise in my ears disappeared at some point, leaving only the noise at the construction site outside Eagle Fort.
"Lord Baron, Jenny wants to see you." Volaf's voice sounded.
"Let her in." Raven said without raising her head.
The door opened, followed by footsteps: "Lord Baron, I am here to say goodbye to you on behalf of Miss Nancy."
"Go back to the manor?"
"No, Mr. Montreal sent a third-order knight to force the young lady to return to Hovey City." Jenny's voice was a little distorted: "...it has been delayed for a week."
Raven then raised his head and saw Jenny’s red and swollen eyes, which reminded him of Nancy. What would she look like now?
“Here, there is a letter from Miss Nancy.” Jenny handed the letter up with both hands.
It is said to be a letter, but it is actually just a piece of folded parchment, and there seems to be something stuck in it.
When he opened it, there was a click, and a fiery red earring fell from it to the table.
This was supposed to be a pair.
On the parchment, there is also a line of text written by Nancy herself, with a hint of cuteness in it:
"I hate you!"
Lei Wen was speechless. Laughing.
Jenny asked cautiously: "Lord Baron...can you give the lady a reply?"
"A reply is not necessary."
Jenny's face fell, but Raven's The next sentence aroused her heart again.
"Please pass me a message." Raven wrapped the earrings in letter paper and said in a deep voice:
"Welcome back at any time."
Jenny's eyes lit up and she nodded vigorously: "I will definitely bring it!"
On February 1, 1194 in the Bright Calendar, Nancy left the Eagle Castle where she had lived for four months and embarked on her return to Hovey City. road.
Leaven's life has returned to calm. The most time-consuming and energy-consuming strengthening work has been basically completed, and his daily work and leisure can be balanced.
There was just one fiery red figure missing from the castle, which made Raven somewhat uncomfortable.
The territory is developing step by step. The scaffolding on the construction site in front of the castle is getting taller day by day. The citizens of the territory are busy, and the monument gradually begins to take shape.
The influx of refugees from the outside world is getting smaller and smaller, but the news they bring is becoming more and more alarming.
Some people say that the Snow Maple Legion has been completely wiped out, and the entire legion has turned into undead creatures; others say that Judra, a nobleman with no sense of honor, has rebelled, surrendered to the Hand of Death, and became A knight of the dead; what's more, he said that the entire city of Meng and most of the province of Nord had been completely lost, and that the special envoy of Slater's family was just trying to trick people into going to die.
There are also some people who are either really crazy or have ulterior motives mixed in, promoting doomsday theories, attacking the Church of Light and the Empire, and even trying to imitate Meng’en City and start a civil strife in the Eagle Territory .
Leaven, who was keenly aware of something amiss, did not hesitate at all. He immediately ordered his personal guards to rush into the refugee camp and kill all those who dared to spread rumors and stir up people's hearts.
Anyone who dared to resist was killed on the spot, and those who were caught were set up on an execution platform and executed publicly.
When dozens of corpses were hung like wind chimes outside Goldish Gold Town, the Eagle Territory did not suffer any retaliation, and none of the soldiers who participated in the collection suffered the so-called "curse". Only then did the rumors finally die out, and the original situation was stabilized. The human heart is in constant panic.
However, this also made Raven realize that the situation in the outside world may have become uncontrollable.
The arrival of Eberron also confirmed this.
The special envoy of the Slater family had sunken eyes and was obviously suffering from anxiety and suffering:
"Lord Baron, if you agree to send troops, then..."
"After this battle, the Slater family can ensure that the Griffith family can obtain a new fiefdom!"
