Chapter 99 98. The Indestructible Alliance

"Fake! Counterfeit! Counterfeit!"

The shouts of the crowd outside the manor entered the room.

Annan by the window closed the window to block out the noise outside, turned around and said to everyone in the study: "They have been gathering outside since early morning."

"Gather us here. Is it related to them?" Francois asked.

The Wine Lady, Michael, Soruman Bronzebeard, and Andrew Luna were sitting around the study, and even Katarina and Klein were here.

Annan nodded.

He broke the agreement with Augusta Olmedo, which meant that there was no longer a fragile trust between them.

The only people Annan can rely on next are his companions - the people in front of him.

But before that, Annan had to be honest with his friends who were still in the dark.

Lies are allowed between friends, but there should be no deception. Annan did not want to take advantage of them, so he had to eliminate "the grudge caused by lies."

But Francois mistakenly thought they were those outside the manor: "They are not refugees. As residents of Breeze City, they have the right to stay outside. We may get scolded if we rashly disperse them... But I can drive them away if you need me.”

“The problem is not them, but——”

Annan saw a carriage parked outside the manor, Olmedo. The golden emblem of the family sparkled.

Augusta Olmedo came to threaten?

Annan watched the carriage stop in front of the main entrance, and a figure with long light blond hair stepped out of the carriage.

Or is Olmedo coming to show off his power?

"Ask Olmedo to wait for me downstairs." Annan said to Abby outside the door, and to his companions in the study: "Olmedo is here, I'll go down and take a look."

"Do you want me to come with you?" Francois asked.

“No, he’s here to find me.”

Annan came downstairs. Olmedo stood in the sun, admiring the oil paintings on the wall.

"I thought you would keep your distance from me." Annan stepped down the steps.

Olmedo's gaze fell from the oil painting to Annan's vaguely wary black eyes: "It was my father who gathered the group of people outside, not me."

"My father may not be Right, you are not necessarily wrong. Staying on the sidelines before drawing conclusions and not letting your emotions lead you. This is the character a leader should have."

"So?"


"I want to join your team."

Annan walked down the last step and sat on the sofa: "Your father took my friend away."

"He will be fine. Yes, I promise." Olmedo came to Annan: "I understand my father. He only wants stability, not chaos."

"Only if he doesn't insist that I will cause chaos. "

Annan could not believe Augusta Olmedo, who took Martin away, but felt ambiguous about the young city lord: "You should know that I am just an impostor."

"And he's still unidentified? That's not important." Olmedo sat on the sofa, his legs elegantly approaching each other. "You want to find the murderer who attacked the King of the North, and I want to find the person who threatens Breeze City. We have the same purpose."

"You are the biggest beneficiary of this matter...Why do you believe that I will believe you?"

Olmedo took out a bag from his pocket. A crow badge is placed on the armrest of the sofa.

"A just and selfless scavenger."

Olmedo has many identities - a family standing on the side of the old aristocracy, the lord of Breeze City, and a visitor to the Wizard's Tower , has an inexplicable relationship with the scavenger. Now, he also wants to join Annan's team.

"I like to join every organization, feel their position, understand their complexity, and realize that the world is not simply right and wrong."

As if feeling Annan's doubts, he said slowly like a magnetic voice in a speech : "All people are complicated and contradictory. Good people will have conspiracies, and bad people will have mercy...Finding the reasons why they appear is what I am learning." "Then when you find out that the Olmedo family is threatening you The protected Breeze City——"

"I will stand on the side of Breeze City" Olmedo did not hesitate.

"Stand up." Annan said.

Olmedo's handsome face showed some embarrassment and he wanted to say something, but Annan had already stepped upstairs.

“Follow me.”

Crack——

Standing outside the door, Annan faced everyone’s gaze: “I would like to introduce a new person who wants to join us. ...Olmedo."

Annan moved away from the door.

The elegant Olmedo stood in front of the door, his eyes scanning the crowd and pausing on Klein's armor.

"I am Jeffrey Olmedo, you can call me by my first name. Please allow me to be honest. I have investigated you before and know your identity...I hope this will not become a We work together."

Michael broke the silence: "I have no objection."

"As long as this sissy is not the leader," Catalina snorted.

The attitude of "it doesn't matter" dominates the majority, and only Francois and the wine lady are just hesitant.

But then Annan announced something to them:

“I am not Levis Reeves.”

The study fell into a surprised silence, and only Olmedo was not surprised.

"You don't have to be angry..." Francois said.

"Don't be upset, I am indeed not Levis Reeves, nor a member of the Reeves family." Annan revealed the truth calmly, "This is all a misunderstanding."

"I don't understand...you just announced your identity from the square..."

Annan told them in the banquet hall. The next day, Augusta Olmedo came to the manor and made an agreement with him "Let Annan Get rid of being the King in the North.”

Michael's emotions were complicated because it happened not long after he left.

“Until the night before, I was ready to tell the truth. But in my dream, I seemed to see a boy who looked like me and Levi’s. He told me not to back down.”

"Then I told myself that when I no longer play the King in the North, I will be vulnerable. The Winchett family will collapse, the shame of the Lundsey family cannot be washed away, and the truth about the Reeves family will never be revealed... ”

"But I don't want to deceive you... Trust is strong but fragile."

"I didn't have feelings for you before, but now I like you a little bit, kid."

Kadarina pulled appreciatively said the ragged voice.

Annan's honesty had no negative consequences - they all stayed.

Looking peacefully at his companions in the study.

The Wine Lady, a family in danger; Francois, a notorious noble; Michael, a mage who should be neutral. Della, an elf with a strange personality; Klein, a knight with a mysterious identity. Catalina, a fanatical believer in the evil god.

And Olmedo...the son of the suspected murderer.

"Sweetheart, how are you going to tell the Reeves family the truth?" Ms. Wine asked emotionally.

Annan's black eyes fell on the fire crow on the windowsill: "After everything is over, I will let Levis Reeves travel far away... and give them a less sad ending."
