"What?" Massa couldn't believe his ears at this moment. He stood up suddenly and didn't even notice that he knocked over the wine glass. [] Massa stared at Roger for a while to make sure he was not joking.
Then he couldn't help but said in surprise: "Are you crazy?".
"Of course I'm not crazy." Roger shrugged and said, "Since His Majesty the King summoned me, how could I not go? If I don't obey His Majesty's instructions, I'm afraid the nobles in the entire country will regard me as an enemy... I
I don’t want to be the public enemy.”
Roger's words made Massa silent for a while, and then he let out a long sigh, and finally said nothing. Massa knew that Roger's words were correct, even if he couldn't leave Mandos City with various excuses,
His Majesty the King will definitely remove Roger's title on the grounds of disobeying the King's orders, and declare him a traitor to the Kingdom, stealing Kingdom land, etc. At that time, Alonso III will be able to legitimately call on other lords to send troops to attack Kent
Town, Roger is really going to go to war with the entire kingdom.
"My friend, this is a dead end." Roger smiled at Massa and said, "So I will definitely go. I would rather let the kingdom feel sorry for me first than do anything that will cause the kingdom to suffer losses first."
Roger's words were so awe-inspiring that Massa felt even more ashamed. The captain of the palace guard was not only ashamed for himself, but also for Alonso III's behavior of burning bridges.
However, Roger didn't mind this at all. He stood up and said to Massa: "Give me one day to deal with the affairs of the territory. I will go back to Mandos City with you early the morning after tomorrow."
Massa didn't know what to say to Roger's straightforward answer. Although he would definitely be praised by Alonso III for his effective work after returning to Mandos City, Massa couldn't be happy at all.
.Looking at his own kindness, he knew there was a trap in front of him but still walked into it calmly. At this moment, Massa felt that only people like Roger could be considered to have real courage.
Roger strolled away from the Earl's Mansion, the calm smile on his face had disappeared. Why would he rather let the kingdom apologize to him first than never do anything to harm the kingdom first? These are all just made up by Roger. If there is no absolute
Take care of yourself and protect yourself. Roger will not foolishly surrender himself just because of his loyalty to the kingdom.
Now that Alonso III is going to attack him, Roger will certainly not be willing to become a victim of the political struggle. The reason why he agreed to go to Mandos City is simply because he does not want to be caught by Alonso III morally. Wait until
The day when both sides broke up,
Roger can say to all the nobles in the kingdom: "Well, the king is such a shameless guy. He tortured a noble like me who is loyal to the kingdom. You still support this virtuous king. You are not afraid of ending up like me in the future."
What will happen?".
Roger is not a murderer. Unless he has to, he does not want to go to war with the entire kingdom. After all, it is only Alonso III and a few of his think tanks who are wrong. Other nobles, especially ordinary soldiers, are just obeying orders. Roger does not want to do this.
People who are willing to pay with their lives for the mistakes of others are living humans after all, not undead creatures that are completely stress-free to eliminate.
The next day Roger told Bonnie and others his plan, which naturally met with strong opposition from everyone. Several of Roger's confidants already knew about the matter between Duke Hamilton and the king, and of course they could think of it.
It is definitely not a good thing for Alonso III to summon Roger at this time. Seeing that Roger is going to die, of course no one will agree with his plan.
Anna had the most determined attitude. She knew very well that Roger was targeted by Alonso III just to avenge his father, so she must not let him take risks for this matter again. Anna even made harsh words, as long as
If Roger dares to go to Mandos City, she will also look for opportunities to go to the capital to surrender to Alonso III.
Roger was both touched and dumbfounded by everyone's concern. It seemed that everyone thought that he had gone to Mandos City and returned, and there was absolutely no way he could survive. Seeing that everyone was resolute, especially Anna who had already risked her life
Threatening himself, Roger sighed and said: "You are too disrespectful to me. Am I really that stupid to go and die on my own initiative?"
"Unless you tell your plan and everyone thinks there is no danger, we won't stop you." Anna's words were immediately approved by everyone.
"You should all know that I have a castle." Roger had to give way: "The castle can build a building-limited portal. I started building this building last night. When it is completed, no matter where I am, I only need to open the portal.
Now you can come back to Kent Town, now you feel relieved?"
Everyone present is Roger's confidant, and naturally they also know the secret of his castle. Although everyone doesn't know much about the castle, they also know that it is a magical castle with all kinds of incredible abilities. So what Roger said
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after the castle could build such a building as a portal. Since there is such a legendary space magic building, Roger is safe wherever he goes. He can return to Kent Town at any time as long as he wants.
The dangers encountered were naturally minimized.
However, Anna was still a little worried. After thinking for a while, she said to Roger: "You can go, but you must go with Sophia. With her protection, we can truly feel at ease."
Although only Anna and Bonnie knew Sophia's true identity, everyone knew that this beautiful red-haired girl had amazing strength, so everyone immediately agreed.
As the weather gets hotter, Sophia feels a little tired of always staying in the villa and wants to walk around. In addition, Roger has more and more women now, and he spends less time with the Dragon Girl.
, and this time the two of them went to Mandos City together, which meant that Roger was owned by Sophia alone during this period. So the dragon girl listened to the announcement.
Na was also very happy after what she said, and wanted to set off for Mandos City with Roger immediately. But Sophia did not show her happiness, but pretended to be unhappy and said: "Huh, for everyone's sake, I just
I will go with you. Otherwise, I won’t go even if you beg me. I don’t know how comfortable it would be to bask in the sun and sea here every day..."
"Okay, you're giving everyone face, okay." Roger didn't want to argue with Sophia, and immediately made a decision: "This matter has been settled, I will set off tomorrow, and I will leave the territory to everyone."
Early the next morning, Roger took Sophia and Massa and set off together.
Seeing that Roger didn't even bring a single guard, but only a charming red-haired beauty, Massa admired him even more. But the captain of the palace guard didn't know that this gorgeous red-haired beauty was going to Jiaojiao.
She is weak, and her lethality to men seems to be only shown in bed, but if she really starts to attack, I am afraid that even an army of a thousand people will not be able to resist her.
Although Roger simply followed Massa to Mandos City, the journey was very slow. This was not because Roger was unwilling to leave, but because the "pretty" Sophia was too troublesome. She had to sleep until
We started our journey when the sun was very high. When it was almost noon, we had to rest because it was too hot. We didn’t resume our journey until dusk. We had to rest again just after dark. We were only on the road for half a day. The speed was naturally so slow.
It is conceivable.
Massa was also very dissatisfied with Sophia's attitude, but for Roger's sake, he could only obey her. Anyway, it was not easy for Roger to simply agree to go to Mandos City.
Taking your time isn't a big deal.
Of course Massa didn't know that it was Roger who actually asked Sophia to delay her trip deliberately so that she could use this time to build a restricted portal. In order to take Sophia away with her in case of any unexpected events, Roger
At the same time, the tavern was expanded so that it could sign symbiotic contracts with more people.
Compared with the limited portal, it is easier to expand the tavern. The expansion of the tavern has been completed when the group was still halfway. Roger found an opportunity to sign a symbiosis contract with Sophia, and finally truly came to terms with the dragon girl.
Together, he no longer has to worry about her betraying him.
But what happened next was beyond Roger's expectation. Now that the symbiosis contract had been signed, he wanted to take off the puppet collar that Sophia had been wearing. In fact, in the process of getting along with the dragon girl, Roger
Jay has almost never used the power of the puppet collar. Now that he has signed a symbiosis contract with Sophia, Roger has no need to use it anymore.
However, Sophia was not happy when she knew that Roger was going to do this. The dragon girl covered her neck with the collar and looked at Roger warily: "What do you want to do? Can you get back what you have given away? You are a grown man talking.
Why doesn’t it count?”
Knowing that the Dragon Girl was suffering from "Treasure Occupy Syndrome" and was reluctant to give the puppet collar back to him, Roger was both angry and funny. Speaking of the Dragon Clan's obsession with treasure, it is indeed difficult to understand, but since Sophia has already
Having said that, Roger couldn't force her to take off the puppet collar, so he could only let the dragon girl continue to wear it proudly.
After this episode, Roger and his party continued to move towards Mandos City. After more than ten days, everyone finally arrived near the capital of the kingdom. The tall walls of Mandos City were already visible in the distance, and there were only a few of them at dusk.
It is very gloomy and terrifying, like a monster that chooses people to devour. And the target that this monster wants to devour most at the moment is probably Roger, who is about to enter the city.
