A middle-aged man with a gloomy face who looked somewhat similar to Pamela looked at the pale young man kneeling on the ground and said slowly: "It's okay for you to be dissolute, but I didn't expect you to kidnap the Bach Hai clan.
Princess, who gave you the guts!"
After hearing his father's reprimand, Holden Bryce replied with a cry: "Father, please listen to my explanation. It's really not my fault. I didn't want to capture that princess! It was all Hober's idea. It was him.
You acted without permission and angered the Sea Clan!"
When Hoboer, who was kneeling behind him, heard this, he trembled suddenly, and then said with a panicked expression: "Master, it is the young master who wants to taste the taste of the women of the Sea Tribe. I always obey orders..."
"Drag out!"
Baron Nez Blaise didn't even look at Hobart, but waved his hand to the guard behind him with a fierce expression.
A moment later, a scream sounded, but it disappeared again only for a short moment.
"Father, what should we do now? I didn't have time to touch that princess, how about returning her to the Sea Clan?"
Seeing his incorrigible son, Baron Nez suddenly became furious and kicked him into the corner.
"Elvis! Find an opportunity to take the sea princess out of the territory and throw her to Claremont City! Remember, don't be discovered!"
"Yes, sir!"
It wasn't until the tall figure walked out of the room that Baron Nez turned around and said to Holden: "Remember, you have never seen any sea princess, and Hobart is no longer yours."
He is dead, but you don’t know where he has gone!”
"I understand, father! I have never seen any sea princess. Hoboer is no longer mine. I don't know where he has gone! I have never seen..."
Looking at his self-hypnotized son, Baron Niez finally let out a breath.
On the other side, in the eastern part of Gnans Forest, a well-trained team of a hundred people was walking through the edge of the forest.
At the front, Clemont slashed with the long sword in his hand, and the thorns blocking the road were instantly split. However, if you look carefully, you can see a circle of slight scorch marks at the cut of the broken thorns.
"Lord, as long as we cross the hills in front, we will reach the territory of Baron Niez! What do you think we should do now?"
Rupert asked softly while observing his surroundings carefully.
According to the rules between noble territories, if one party leads an army into the other party's territory without the owner's approval, it will be regarded as a war, and the other party has the right to counterattack.
Clemont thought for a while and said: "According to Barry's information, the refugees in the western part of Baron Nez should be concentrated in the upper reaches of the Poole River. It can be reached in an hour from here, and now Baron Nez cannot protect himself.
It’s hard to notice us!”
Rupert thought about it and it seemed right. Now the Baron of Niez had assembled an army of at least five or six barons. Even if they were discovered, they could lie and claim that they were reinforcements sent from other territories.
"Let's go!" After confirming the plan, the group quickly climbed over the hills in front of them.
But not long after everyone left, a knight riding a tall horse and wearing silver heavy armor came over from the other side of the hill.
Looking at the Gnans Forest in front of him, and then at the linen bag behind him, the knight in shining armor clamped his legs and disappeared into the forest in an instant.
However, Clemont, who had missed it so perfectly, was leaning forward and looking at the few bathing in the puddle in front of him with a curious expression... Well... for a moment, he couldn't think of any words to describe the creatures in front of him.
"It's strange, how come there are sea people here?"
Rupert beside him muttered softly.
Sea Clan? It turns out that this guy who looks like a green fat-headed fish is the Sea Clan! For a moment, he thought of a plot he had seen in that book.
A righteous knight met the sea princess by chance during his travels, and gave birth to the child of love.
Gee, people in this world have such strong tastes! I admire you for being able to eat it even if you look like this!
After secretly complaining a few words, Clemont quietly waved his hand back. In an instant, a group of burly men holding long swords rushed over and surrounded the unresponsive sea tribe in the middle of the puddle.
Seeing the humans who suddenly rushed out, these sea tribesmen were instantly stunned. When they wanted to resist, more than a dozen long swords were already pressed against their necks.
"Gulu...jigu...lulu..."
"Huh? What do you mean?" Clemont had a question mark on his face.
"Lord, these should be the lowest races among the sea tribes. They probably don't speak the common language of the mainland!" Rupert explained.
"Oh, it turned out to be the little Yakuza! Then it's okay! Then tie them up and take them back to the territory!"
After hearing the Lord's order, a group of strong men pulled five sea tribesmen out of the puddle and tied them up.
But what Clemont didn't expect was that they encountered another group of Sea Tribe scouts before they had gone far.
"Lord, this is a bit strange!" Rupert said with a frown as he glanced at the group of Sea Tribe scouts who were hacked to death behind him.
"Why is it strange? Is it normal for the sea tribe to appear here?" Clemont glanced at him doubtfully.
"It stands to reason that this is true, but now the battlefields of the Sea Tribe are mainly in the east of the Niez Territory, which is more than a hundred kilometers away from us. It is really strange for these scouts to come so far to conduct reconnaissance in this inhospitable place! And...
…”
Rupert hesitated for a moment, then continued: "And I think they are looking for something!"
After listening to Rupert's guess, Clemont touched his chin and nodded. It seemed to make sense. The area they were in now was actually a wasteland in the southwest of the Niez Territory, except for some small animals.
Apart from a few scattered trees, nothing else can be seen at a glance.
"Let's go forward and see if we can meet the Sea Clan again. If we can catch a Sea Clan who understands the lingo of the mainland, we will understand!"
But what disappointed Clermont was that they didn't encounter the Sea Tribe's scouting team until they reached the Poole River.
"Rupert, take half of the people downstream. If you encounter any refugees, bring them back. We will meet here later!"
"Okay, Lord Lord!"
So the two men each led a team of people and began to search along the Poole River.
Although the Pool River is only a small river, it is the only river in the Niez Territory. Now that there is a war, in addition to the people who originally lived on both sides, people from other places have begun to flock here. After all, the river means life.
After walking along the upper reaches for more than an hour, Clement didn't see a single refugee. However, he found many traces of the lives of refugees along the coast, and the traces were very new, that is, they were only within the past two or three days.
"Keep looking, I won't believe it!"
After throwing away the rags in his hands, Clemont accelerated his pace.
