Chapter 64 Wrong Time

At midnight that day, the hour hand crossed zero and came to the 29th of Divine Blessing.

Kino was going to draft a letter and send it to Archon Resachal, inviting him to tomorrow's banquet.

Twilight City belongs to the Fenghuo Province, and Resakhar lives in Fengyun Pass, the capital of the province. Raven is taking off now and will arrive in about 23 hours.

The ancient dragon is faster than a raven, and it only takes 12 hours for Resachhar to fly here.

In the office, Chino hadn't slept since the 25th. He was extremely exhausted and didn't want to move his pen. A bookboy next to him was helping him write.

Kino said slowly: "Respected Archon Resakhar Delin Regnom, I am grateful for your promotion. I will hold a banquet at 9 pm on the 30th of the Divine Blessing. At that time, I will invite

The noble officials from all over the City of Dusk are attending and celebrating the Divine Grace Festival with the whole city. You are cordially invited to come to the banquet. You will share the same robe with me. Signed: Kino van Helsing, Administrator of the City of Dusk."

Sharing the same robe as one's son, this is the clan language of the Regnom family. They also like to hear outsiders say this sentence to express their love for the robe.

The boy was writing, hesitating a little, and asked tentatively: "Sir, doesn't the dinner start at 5 o'clock tomorrow evening? Why does it say 9 o'clock? Did I hear wrongly?"

In Dogulandic, the pronunciations of 5 and 9 are very similar, so it’s no wonder that the book boy has doubts.

Kino was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes. He curled up on the chair and fell asleep like a kitten, muttering intermittently: "9... That's right... 9... Please send it to the raven after I finish writing... Thank you

..."

The book boy thought it was strange. For a banquet at 5 o'clock, would you let people come to eat leftovers at 9 o'clock?

But he didn't care. After all, he was just a ghostwriter. He would write whatever the administrator said.

After finishing writing, he took the letter to the inn.

When the book boy went out, the sleepy Kino quietly opened his eyes, with a penetrating cold light hidden in his amber pupils.

...

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Liu Ke came back from shopping outside.

While he was secretly surveying the terrain of the executive residence, two attendants walked by not far away, whispering:

"How could that guy Alai make such a mistake... He's finished this time."

"It's really over. I've never seen Lord Kino so angry!"

"Want to go see it?"

"Let's go and see..."

When Liu Ke heard that it was related to Kino, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Hey, I just came back from shopping, what happened to Kino-sama?"

One of the attendants said: "Jie, Alai got into trouble. Yesterday he helped Mr. Kino write the invitation letter, but he actually wrote it at the wrong time... I guess his life is in danger!"

Liu Ke was stunned and pretended not to understand: "Invitation letter? To whom is the invitation letter?"

The attendant shook his head: "It is said that it was given to a provincial consul. Hey, how could this guy Alai make a mistake in this kind of thing..."

Liu Ke couldn't hold back his joy: "Quick, let's go and see together."

The three of them trotted to the courtyard, where an execution platform had been set up, with flags and flags ringing in the cold wind.

Alai, Kino's bookboy, was completely naked at this time. There were traces of whipping everywhere. He couldn't even squeeze out a single tear from his red eyes, which had long since flowed cleanly.

Alai's face was full of despair, and he whined and wanted to shout something, but because his mouth was blocked, he couldn't say anything. He could only cry helplessly over and over again in his mind: Chino asked me to write it.

9 o'clock! Chino asked me to write it!

Kino stood nearby, his amber eyes full of murderous intent. He pointed at Alai and shouted at the servant below: "I can't believe that I actually hired such a stupid servant! Because of his mistake

, Archon Resachhar will not be able to come to our banquet on time, and the losses caused must be repaid with his life!"

The invitation with the wrong time was sent from the inn at midnight on the 29th of Shenyou, and will be delivered to Resakhar 23 hours later, that is, at 11 o'clock tonight.

Lei Sakhar saw that the time written on the invitation letter was 9 o'clock tomorrow night. With the speed of the dragon knight, he would definitely take off before 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, and maybe even take off at 7 or 8 o'clock in order to arrive early.

Do some preparations before the banquet or something.

But it is now past 10 o'clock in the morning. Even if the raven is sent to explain again, when the raven arrives at Fengyun Pass 23 hours later, Resakhar will already be in the sky, and he will not receive the invitation letter with the correct time anyway.

What should we do now?

Is the banquet going on as usual?

When Rysakhar arrives in Twilight City and sees that the party started early and he arrived 4 hours later like a fool, what will he think?

The party is postponed to 9pm?

In order to cater to their superiors, they postponed all the arrangements for the nobles to attend the banquet. What will happen to them?

People in this situation are not human beings, so it’s no wonder that Chino is so angry.

In the audience, Lugo didn't mind the excitement and cheered wildly: "Kill him! Use his head to make amends to Lord Lesakhar!"

One person booed, and everyone followed suit: "Kill him! Kill him!"

"Kill." Amid the roaring and noisy voices, Kino snatched Paladin's sword, raised the sword and beheaded Alai.

"Pfft!"

The moment the head fell to the ground, Alai's eyes were still red and swollen, with a mixture of resentment and despair, and his mouth was opening and closing with residual nerves, as if he wanted to say something.

Splattered blood sprinkled on Kino's body, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly. He kicked Alai's head away, turned around and walked into the room, probably preparing to take a shower.

"He actually had blood splattered on him..." Lugo scratched the back of his head and muttered, "It seems like he was really angry... Hey, stop looking, it's all gone! You, clean up here."

Except for the servant named by Lugo, everyone else dispersed and went about their own business. At the same time, they took Alai as a warning to remind themselves not to make stupid mistakes in the future.

When Liu Ke saw this scene, he was already crazy with joy. He quickly called out telepathically: "Du Lang! Can you hear me?"

Durang was probably resting and no answer came. After all, he couldn't turn on his psychic powers 24 hours a day.

Liu Ke kept shouting like this for half an hour, and finally Du Lang responded: "I'm sorry, I've been too tired recently with my psychic powers. I slept a little longer, just tell me."

Liu Ke was overjoyed: "Good news! The book boy next to Kino made a mistake and wrote the wrong time on the invitation! The banquet starts at 5 o'clock tomorrow night, and Reisakhar can't come until 9 o'clock in the evening!"

"What?!" Du Lang didn't expect the sudden joy, but he still kept calm, "Where did you get the news?"

Liu Ke said quickly: "I was at the scene. The book boy was beheaded half an hour ago. Didn't you see that kid from Chino got so angry that he chopped off the head with one knife?"

Alice hurriedly said: "Wait! This is wrong! There must be his conspiracy in this!"

Liu Ke was a little helpless: "Alice, can you stop being surprised all the time? According to your statement, I can't do anything here. You can label any information as his conspiracy."

Alice snapped: "I've told you many times, I know this person better than you do! He can't make such a stupid mistake!"

Not to be outdone, Liu Ke retorted: "I heard that he was busy dealing with us and didn't sleep for several days in a row. When the raven was distributed yesterday, he had not slept for more than 80 hours. It is normal for him to be confused."
