If it was a thief who suddenly appeared, even if it was a woman, Liszt would find an opportunity to kill her. This kind of person who threatened his life, if he didn't get rid of her, would he really want the other party to fall in love with him?
But as a reward for the smoke mission.
Killing the other party was tantamount to throwing away the reward directly. After all, the smoke mission had already given a "hint" – Serf Maggie.
The trainee maid, Maggie, was the key to get the reward, the key to mastering the mercenary or sorceress in front of him. As for how to open the treasure chest with the key, it was certainly not to capture the little maid Maggie and threaten the other party. The best way should be with love.
"Maggie has formed a contract with Mrs. Harriet of the grocery store. This mercenary is equivalent to half of Flower Town's people!"
Since it was one of his own, Liszt's mood suddenly became cheerful.
He began to think about how to play the cards in his hand – Maggie, and his personal reputation.
At this time.
The maid had already said who she wanted to take away. "I want to take away a maid in the castle. Does Baron agree?"
"A maid in the castle?" Liszt pretended to think for a moment and said, "There are sixteen maids in the castle. Which one do you want to take away?"
"Irene."
"Irene Four Fingers?" Liszt glanced at the maid in surprise. He didn't expect the other party to play with him. If he hadn't guessed it earlier, he would have been fooled. "Why do you want to take Irene away? Give me a reason."
"It's just a maid. What reason is needed? Baron, if you want to see if my sword is sharp, I don't mind letting you know. "
"My sword isn't rusty either." Liszt did not give in and looked at the maid's bright eyes.
He was half acting, and the other half was confidence.
There was Dosen, the Red Blood Sword, and the elite Earth Knight.
As long as the other party was not a Sky Knight, they would not be able to take advantage of him.
With confidence, they would be able to perform with peace of mind. They would be able to show the lord's love for his subjects, show their tough side, and show off the noble image that the people at the bottom of the hierarchy expected. Under the Knight system, everyone was equal. A brave and benevolent lord was the embodiment of justice.
The female mercenary's tattered leather armor showed that she was undoubtedly at the bottom of society.
After a while.
Sure enough, she took a step back. "Irene is my sister. Is this reason enough?"
"Your sister?" Liszt smiled. "If it's true, I'll call her over and confirm it with you. I'm not opposed to family reunions. In fact, you can come and see me as her relative. Irene applied to be a maid in Coral City. The choice to stay or leave is in her own hands. "
"She doesn't know that I exist."
"Sorry, this reason doesn't hold water. Irene's parents are in Coral City, they farm for Tulip Castle. I don't think she will have a thief, mercenary or magician sister. So I have to wait for Irene's confirmation before I can let you take her away. "
"What if I have to take her away?"
"It seems that my actions have caused you to misunderstand." Liszt suddenly pressed his hand on the hilt of the Red Blood Sword and sternly said, "The people work for the Lord, and the Lord protects the safety of the people. This is the knight's glory that I believe in. I won't allow you to take away anyone from Flower Town! "
This action was full of momentum, and the lines were generous and powerful.
Coupled with his handsome face, his sense of justice was bursting.
Of course, there was a slight suspicion of using too much force. Such a righteous lord seemed a bit empty.
On the opposite chair, the mercenary's bright eyes flickered. For a moment, she did not respond to Liszt's righteous rebuke. Until Liszt felt embarrassed, she slowly said, "You are different from the lords I killed, Baron. I will stay in Flower Town for a few days to see the difference between you and the other lords."
Then she stood up. She was about 1.75 meters tall.
Liszt narrowed his eyes.
He felt that whether he let her go or stopped her from going out, it was not a very good solution. The key point was that he could not estimate the strength of the other party.
Anyway, she would not be weak.
If her strength was low, the smoke mission did not need to be so serious, and she would be counted as a reward.
When she walked to the door of the study and was about to open the door, Liszt got up and followed. "I don't know why you came for Irene, but I must warn you, don't try to hurt Irene. Don't have any bad intentions in Flower Town, and leave your name. "
"Swan." The mercenary smiled, not caring about Liszt's threat.
It was not a standard female name. It was probably an alias, Liszt guessed.
Thomas, who was decorating the living room, saw Liszt coming out with a mercenary. He was stunned and then stepped forward to greet, "Master."
Liszt said, "Thomas, you send this uninvited guest, Ms. Swan, out of the castle. In addition, inform Consultant Gort that she can find a new house in town for Ms. Swan to live in. "
Feeling that this was too deliberate, he added, "The money for board and lodging is the same as those foreign merchants."
Although Thomas did not know why there was a woman dressed like this in the castle, he respectfully accepted the order. "Yes, Master. Ms. Swan, please come with me. "
Swan followed Thomas out of the castle.
Butler Carter asked with doubt, "Master, this Ms. Swan, I have not seen her enter the castle. I have been wiping the dust in the hall."
"She came in over the wall." Liszt stood at the door and watched Swan's back disappear into the distance. "I will tell you about her origin when the time is right. As for now, you should care more about the servants in the castle, especially the maids. If they have any grievances, solve them as soon as possible. "
As expected, Carter stopped asking. "As you wish, Master."
"By the way, Mr. Carter, can you ask Irene to come to my study? I have something to ask her." Since the mercenary said that she was here for Irene, he had to show his sincerity.
Irene hurried to the study.
"Master, are you looking for me?"
"Irene, how many brothers and sisters do you have in your family?"
"I have two younger brothers."
"No sister? Or cousin, cousin? "
"No, Master."
"Are you sure you don't have one? For example, a sister who was given to someone else when she was a child."
"I don't know about that, but when I was born, my mother was only seventeen years old. There shouldn't be another sister."
So the possibility that Swan was Irene's sister was basically ruled out. She was just playing mind games. Liszt's heart settled and his tone became gentler. "How is the work in the kitchen?"
"Everything is fine, Master."
"That's good. If there is anything, you can report it directly to Mr. Carter. As a sister, you should take care of the little maid in the kitchen and not let them suffer. "
"Of course, I will."
The conversation ended and Irene was sent away.
Liszt carefully sorted out his response to Swan's encounter and felt that there were several details that had not been handled well and there were some flaws, but overall, his response was pretty good.
There was no abrupt enthusiasm, no deliberate hostility.
The courage and kindness that should be shown were also shown, and they were basically like a spring breeze.
