Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

“Yes?”

“Don't notice. Go ahead. ”

“Hahahaha, got it! ”

Caith scratches his back head with a shy look, but nods coldly. Then he runs toward Anness and shouts out in a loud voice.

“Anes!”

Caith heaves his arms in Agnes.

“Car, Caith! ”

Anes looks around, puzzled and red, then grabs Caith by the neck and buries his face in his chest.

And he began whispering his own story in a small voice.

“Tsk!”

Lycaen, standing a little distance from Anness, kicks his tongue without my knowledge. But whether or not, Caith is only distracted by the whispering of Anness and Mills.

Lycaen, who had been staring at Caith for a long time, gives up and approaches the late Duke Dovern. And he talked like a joke.

“Among the guys I know, I've got an eight-hundred dollar bill, and I think there's one more today. ”

“Huh, is that so? ”

“Do you mind if I leave your granddaughter with that Punsoo? ”

“What can I do? I don't have anyone else to take me.... ”

“That, too. ”

In the meantime, Caith approaches Lycaen.

“Hello?”

“I was surprised to find out that a bear attacked Miss Annes.... It was you.”

“D-don 't call me a bear. ”

But Lycaen does not back down. I immediately turned my gaze away from Caith and said to Anness,

“Miss Annes, be careful. That bear may look mild now, but it may turn violent at any moment. ”

However, the answer came from Annes' mouth, and Lycaen's face was rarely foolish.

“Hoho, is there such a cute bear? ”

“Huh!”

Lycaen, who vomited with a blank face, opens his mouth with difficulty, saying he has no strength to speak.

“I think you two are a natural couple. ”

“Hoho, I'll take that as a compliment. ”

“Well, go ahead. ”

Caith frowns at Lord Dovern and says, "What's so good about the compliment of Anness?"

“I have a room ready. I'll walk you through it. ”

And then I told Lycaen.

“The butler will give you a room. ”

Lycaen rolls one lip up and stares at Caith.

“Son of a bitch! ”

But Caith was not shaken a bit.

“Wait. I'll be there in a minute. ”

“Hehehe, yes. ”

Caith's face has changed severely. It is because I heard the contents of the letter that Lycaen received.

“So our territory could be in danger? ”

“I guess so. ”

“Mmmm... ”

“If you get dizzy, why don't you postpone the wedding a little? ”

But Caith shakes his head decisively as if he had no time to reconsider.

“The sooner we do that, the sooner we can hurry. If we start digging for you and me, it could jeopardize Count Anes and Dovern, too. It's safer to keep it by your side. ”

“Even so. Anyway, I think we should execute our plan sooner than we live. ”

Caith folds his arms in Ricain's words and looks troubled.

“It's hard to rush things, even if we do it quickly. ”

“I think it's better than being dangerous. ”

“Hmm……. ”

Kaith closes his eyes with a heavy expression without shy answering.

It was then.

“Who are you?”

Suddenly, Lycaen howls at the window. Suddenly, I heard the voice of someone other than two people.

“Hey, are you missing me? ”

He said in a loud voice, as if Lycaen had already known.

“If you're here, why are you lurking outside? ”

“Tsk!”

Joel opens the window with a hiss. I started talking before Joel even sat down.

“It's not unusual, by the way. ”

“Huh?"

“Circus is on the move. ”

“What are you talking about? ”

“Literally. This time they moved the stronghold inside the Empire. I've been watching the place, and the Humans are getting out. But everything that's come out of it is coming to Bren Kingdom. ”

Lycaen mutters, wrinkled in her brow.

“Is it more urgent than you think? Or do you already know what you're gonna find out? ”

“Do you already know how many days it's been? ”

“So you're a grumpy person.... ”

“Maybe if you touch him, he'll kill you right back and forth." ”

“Tsk, you're about to bump into an annoying guy. ”

It was quite difficult to think a lot and deal with prudent people. But what's more difficult is dealing with a man who can run without blocking the fire with his strength.

Lycaen looks at Caith and asks.

“What are you going to do? ”

“Hmm……. ”

Caith, who is still not answering, considering for a long time, finally nods with difficulty.

“I can't help it. Got it.”

“Good thinking. ”

As Lycaen nods, Joel jumps up and says,

“Well, I have a feeling I've made up my mind too soon, but if you're going to do it, you better do it fast. Then don't move from me. ”

Caventes Porto with a deep darkness.

Inside the pontoon is wild with entertainment for sailors and travelers, but the port where the boats are anchored is lighted up all over the deck and is quite quiet and desolate. You hear a loud noise in the entertainment area coming from afar.

There was a merchant ship anchored on the most upstream side of the ships with such a line. A shadow settles quietly on the deck of the merchant ship. Then, as if he knew the structure, he took a bold step down the stairs leading down to the deck.

As soon as the shadow descends below the deck closes the door above and through, the light is lit inside.

“Are you here?”

It was Wolf who greeted him coldly. And it was Riccianne who received his greeting.

“I worked hard to get here. ”

Meanwhile, Elisha, a small, figure woman behind Wolf, approaches and says.

“You seem to be in a bad mood. Are you okay? ”

“It's not okay. But don't worry too much. Just keep doing what you're doing. Who should I meet, by the way? ”

“I'm waiting inside. Follow me.”

A man enters the small room built below the deck along Elisha. Though they appeared to be in their 50s, they were not as young as the shoulders cracked open and the muscles tightened.

The only thing that stands out is that the two eyes that were originally beaked were very tired.

“Are you in charge of this? ”

Lycaen nodded and sat across from the man in his 50s.

“My name is Riccianne Prokers. ”

The man looks surprised by what Lycaen has to say.

“One of the biggest names in this war. I am Helvane Goron. ”

This time, Lycaen looked surprised. It was because he was one of the most famous men in the war, in a different sense to Riyaen.

Likayen asked as if to confirm.

“Are you the Goron duc of Fort Seronen of the Old Delos Kingdom? ”

“Indeed.”

Duke Goron nods, his eyes darkening. Then I brought up the topic.

“I heard that I have something to prepare for this time.... ”

But before the Duke of Goron's words were finished, Lycaen stood up.

“You must be mistaken. ”

“W-what do you mean? I hear you're gathering forces for some strange things that have happened in this war. ”

“That's right.”

“So am I. I've been investigating some strange incidents myself. So I want to help.... ”

“So you've come to the wrong place. ”

Lycaen was speaking politely, but his face was frozen.

“What the……. ”

“I'm not stupid enough to trust a longevity lost to an ally and stand on the battlefield together. ”

“Well, that's ……. I had no choice then. It was too much to continue the war while the war itself was being conspired. ”

Duke Goron expressions earnestly.

“I don't think that's a reason for abandoning your allies. ”

“Please, listen to me. ”

“No. I don't think a good word will ever come out of my mouth, so you might want to stop there." ”

“It doesn't matter if you insult me. So hear me out. ”

Duke Goron looks desperate for Lycaen. Leaning toward the duc, Licayen sighed slowly, frowning.
