Although he was dumbfounded, Roland decided to continue listening.
The Bard said that Aslan buried Kira in sorrow and returned to the Hollevin branch of the Tree Shade organization, where he told Kira's wife the sad news.
Then, under Aslan's half care and half intimidation, Kira's scared wife had to obey Aslan.
The Bard even sang a dirty song about Kira's wife's helplessness in bed. The drunkards listened very carefully. In the end, Aslan wanted to extend his claws to Kira's twelve-year-old daughter.
But at this point, Kira's wife burst out. Determined to protect her daughter at all costs, she began to resist Aslan.
The infuriated Aslan didn't do anything to the mother and daughter, but he banished them from the Tree Shade organization's base. In the end, the mother and daughter disappeared, and nobody saw them again.
At this point in the narrative, many drunkards who had just come back to themselves from the dirty song were rather disdainful.
Even the people at the bottom of the social class had a good impression of them.
Not only did he take someone else's wife by force, but he also wanted to take someone else's daughter by force.
It would've been fine if it was consensual, but nobody would think highly of such behavior.
Besides, in the previous story, the Tree Shade organization had been holding the protagonists back in the name of nature. They were already pissed. Now that they heard such a thing, their disdain was self-evident. Roland was quite satisfied.
Although the Guild of Bards was a bit too slanderous, an organization like the Tree Shade that despised human beings and regarded them as cancer of nature wouldn't appear in such a humble place as a tavern.
So, they wouldn't react to the Bards' slanderous propaganda at all.
By the time they realized that something was wrong, it was possible that the entire Hollevin Kingdom would have a bad impression of them.
At that time, Roland would like to see if they were qualified to judge human beings from the moral high ground.
It was already late at night when Roland returned to the Magic Tower from the tavern. Andonara was lying on the bed in the inner room of his study. Hearing his footsteps, she immediately came out.
She was wearing transparent pajamas, similar to the one Roland wore when he first met her.
They were very seductive.
Roland took a deep breath and sat on the edge of the bed.
Andonara wrapped herself around him. She was soft and fragrant, and the two of them cuddled for quite a while. It had to be said that people who had been educated by the royal family before marriage were truly extraordinary.
In the middle of the night, the two of them leaned against each other in a cozy atmosphere. Andonara asked in a low voice, "I'm told that this incident has something to do with me?"
"Yes, Hawk said that there's a sword sealed in that place, and the fire monster it produces is blue, very similar to your fire."
Andonara said happily, "In fact, you don't have to run around for me. Just do your own thing, and I'll be content to stay by your side."
"It's fine. I have nothing better to do anyway." Roland waved his hand.
"Liar." Andonara kissed Roland's face and continued with a smile, "You have a lot of spells that you haven't studied yet, and you have to look for the elemental cores. Do you have any free time?"
Roland shrugged.
"That sword," Andonara said in a low voice. Andonara said in a low voice, "It's probably Carter's great-grandfather's Hero's sword. I heard about it when I was little and only knew that my great-grandfather hid it somewhere. I didn't expect that it would be discovered by the Golden Sons!"
Roland was slightly surprised. "Why did Hero Kite hide it? Couldn't he have left it to his descendants?"
"I don't know." Andonara shook her head, her long golden hair flowing like waves. "He didn't leave any Hero equipment for us. I don't know why."
"Maybe it's written in the book that Cage is holding!" Roland thought for a moment and said, "I'll go to Reed Village and ask before we set off tomorrow."
Andonara thought for a moment and said, "It's not a bad idea to ask. There might be a special reason. It's a pity that you can't take anyone with you, or I'd like to visit my uncle, too. "
"Do you want to bring some gifts?" asked Roland.
"Yes, we have to prepare them."
Andonara got up and covered herself with a thick coat to cover her body. Then, she got busy.
About half an hour later, Andonara returned with some jerky, some fruits, and some spices. She gave them to Roland and asked him to put them in his system Backpack.
Then, she returned to her bed, yawned, and slowly fell asleep.
Players didn't need to sleep, so Roland continued optimizing spells. This time, he focused his attention on magic arrays.
Although Christina didn't know much about magic arrays, her contract magic array was just a copy of what she had done.
However, after Roland's analysis and mathematical modeling, Roland had grasped some of the basic applications of magic arrays.
For example, he had figured out how to fuse the shell of a magic array with spells.
The next step was to break the door with brute force and open the path to the knowledge of magic arrays to himself.
That being said, there was still too little data on magic arrays. Even though there was abundant data in his mathematical model, it was still not enough.
He was still missing a critical point. He had found the door, but he was still short of a key or a TNT bomb.
It would be great if he could find other files on magic arrays.
It was a pity that nobody in the Association of Mages in Hollevin knew magic arrays.
When the sky was slightly bright, Roland left the Magic Tower and went out of the city. He activated Teleportation and arrived at Reed Village.
Then, he rang the bell outside of Cage's manor. Very soon, Cage walked down with a glamorous woman in his arms.
Roland raised his eyebrow.
Cage stuffed a silver coin into the woman's chest and said to her, "You're a very good service. I'll call you again next time."
Holding the silver coin, the woman hesitated. She looked at Cage, sighed, and left reluctantly.
After the woman was far away, Cage led Roland into the living room and said with a smile, "I'm sorry that you saw such an embarrassing thing. Don't tell Andonara. I'm trying to maintain my image as an elder."
Roland almost spat out the water in his mouth. He said helplessly, "You talk dirty in front of Andonara all the time. You've lost your image as an elder, haven't you?"
Cage chuckled and didn't say anything.
Roland thought for a moment and said, "If you have such a strong demand, why don't you find a decent one? It's easy for you to find a beautiful woman with your qualifications, isn't it? "
"Forget it." Cage shook his head. "You heard it before. The Reed family is cursed. I've already killed my wife. I don't want to hurt anybody else."
Roland heaved a sigh.
Seeing that the atmosphere was heavy, Cage changed the topic. "Right, how's Anna doing?"
"She's fine. She's eating and sleeping well. She's fair and soft."
"She's much stronger, hasn't she?" asked Cage.
Roland was slightly stunned. "You know?"
"I heard about it. A lot of bards in the taverns were singing her story, saying that she killed countless Golden Sons with black leaves. The Hero bloodline will grow stronger as long as the evildoers are eliminated. " Cage said in great comfort, "I know that she's avenging me and the people of Winterwind. That's why I'm happy."
Speaking of Andonara, Roland took the opportunity to take out the gifts from his system Backpack and put them in a corner of the living room. There were quite a lot of gifts.
They weren't worth much, but the gesture was enough.
Seeing that Roland sat down before him again, Cage said with a smile, "You must've come for something else, right?"
As an experienced senior who had traveled a lot, he could tell that Roland was here for something else.
Roland nodded and told him about the fiery sword.
Cage waved his hand unconcernedly. "The book didn't mention the whereabouts of the Hero suits, so I'm not sure if the fiery sword you mentioned is the one in my great-grandpa's hands. You can take it if you want. Why are you asking me? "
"After all, that sword belongs to the Reed family."
"Anna is a member of the Reed family too. What does it matter if she takes it?" Cage said angrily. "Don't think that we won't acknowledge her now that she's with you."
Well … Roland felt that he was gauging a gentleman with his own yardstick.
Then, after chatting with Cage for a while, Roland bade farewell. After all, other people were waiting for him to set off for Bluewater Harbor.
After teleporting back to Delpon from Reed Village, Roland shook his dizzy head and saw Andonara, who was fully armed, at the city gate, Vincent, who was lightly armed, and the Priest of the Water God Church.
The Priest's name was Liz. She seemed to be a college student.
The players had their system Backpacks, which were very convenient.
Roland bought a carriage and asked Liz to drive it. She didn't hire a coachman.
As a Priest of the Water God Church, Liz worked hard every day to save money. She had driven carriages for other people too many times.
She even picked up a special specialty, Carriage Driving. Not only was the carriage fast and steady, but the horses also ate a lot less food.
It wasn't scientific at all.
Bluewater Harbor wasn't far away from Delpon, and they didn't run into any trouble on the way. It only took them five days to reach the gate of the harbor.
Before they entered the city, they had already smelled the intense stink of seawater.
The city gate was wide open, and the carriages of merchants were entering and exiting the city nonstop.
More importantly, this city didn't charge a poll tax, just like Delpon after Roland took control of it.
At this moment, Delpon didn't charge a poll tax either.
After entering the city, Roland looked at the city that was even livelier than Delpon and said, "The mayor of this city might've hired a player as an advisor, or his power has been stolen by a player, just like Delpon."
Vincent asked in surprise, "How do you know that?"
"The business atmosphere here is too intense. Also …" Roland pointed at a team of fully-armed people who were walking close. "Don't you find their gait familiar?"
It was a team of security patrols who were walking with their heads held high.
Their gait was very much the style of the people's army.
