Horace thought that he would be safe at least until Wayne and the others got the evidence. However, his thinking was obviously too simple.
Before he could leave the rather large city lord's palace, Alik hurried over with his guards and surrounded him and the guards who were carrying him.
"Put him down," Alik said. The Lord's voice was extremely cold, and the guards escorting Horace subconsciously showed panic expressions.
Could it be that... he had heard those less respectful words from before? Seeing the guilty looks on the faces of several people, Alik was furious: "Catch them all!" The guards responded.
"City, City Lord, why is this happening?" A guard was confused. Could it be that just because he said a few sarcastic words to the nobles behind their backs, the consequences would be so serious?
"Oh, you still dare to pretend? You people... must have been bribed!" Alik glared at them.
Horace, who was thrown to the ground and still pretending to be unconscious, was slightly shocked. As expected, Alik turned his attention to him.
"Horace, won't you open your eyes and see what's going to happen next?" he said. Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Horace had no choice but to slowly open his eyes.
The light outside was much brighter, and it was difficult for him to adapt to it for a while. But Count Alik's bucket-like belly and face full of flesh were extremely conspicuous in the sunlight.
Behind him were personal guards surrounding him in circles. Looking from the bottom up, I can only see the crowds of people moving and shadows, and it is impossible to count how many people participated in this round-up operation.
Horace smiled to himself. The Lord of the City thinks too highly of himself, and he doesn't know what went wrong.
Seeing a look of despair in Horace's eyes, Alik grinned with satisfaction.
"Horace, I really underestimated you! I almost let you fly away." He walked closer to Horace step by step.
——If we can get those young masters and ladies involved, maybe we can get Alik to use the trap as a weapon.
This thought flashed through Horace's mind for a moment. But soon, this idea was suppressed by him.
Those few don't look very old, maybe they're not yet adults. How could they be the opponents of Alik and the other guards?
They only agreed to their request out of good intentions, and they still have a bright future in the future.
If Alik accidentally died here because of his madness, even if Duke Wenche cut Alik into pieces in the end, it would not help.
Thinking this, Horace remained silent. Maybe, I... will end here. Suddenly, he felt that the memories of the past seemed to flash before his eyes again.
The painstaking upbringing of his parents, the glory of attaining aristocratic status, and that - longing for the girl next door.
"Because you are a noble now, so... I can't be with you, it will delay you." What she said seemed to be ringing in her ears again.
How silly. I am no longer a nobleman. A faint smile appeared on the corner of Horace's mouth, calmly welcoming his impending death.
But, right now. Suddenly there was a strange movement from the side.
"Then, what is that!?" ぷ999 Xiao@ said that there was a small commotion among the first ΘmΘm personal guards.
Alik frowned and looked sideways. I saw an ugly rag doll dancing on the hats of the guards.
It wears a black top hat and a white bow tie. Its face is made up of pieces of rags spliced together, but its movements are extremely agile.
While passing over the rows of hats, it made a strange sound: "Wuhu~" The sound was obviously not loud, but it seemed to be directly transmitted into the hearts of everyone present.
The moment he saw the doll, Alik was stunned for a second. However, he soon realized something and roared angrily: "Damn it! Damn it!" He didn't care about Alik who was still lying on the ground, and rushed over to catch the ugly doll.
Wayne was startled when he saw a mountain of meat rushing towards him. So enthusiastic? It seems that his taunting skills are used quite well.
The doll controlled by his magic power immediately flew up to avoid Alik's clutches. It can float in mid-air without any help, as if it were walking on flat ground.
However, the guards who had been stepped on by it on the head just now were not so lucky. They were knocked off their feet by Count Alik, who had red eyes and seemed to have lost his mind.
"Who...are you?! What's the purpose of hiding your head and showing your tail?" Alik looked up and stared at it.
The doll paused for a moment, as if it didn't understand what he meant. He took off his top hat and touched his bald little head. Then he turned around and touched the little tail on his butt with great effort. It looked ugly. There seems to be a puzzled expression on the little face, which can be said to be very expressive.
Alik understood its meaning almost immediately. He felt himself getting angrier.
"Wait for me! When I catch you, I will cut you into pieces!" Alik roared furiously.
…
"Boom, boom, boom..." Continuous loud explosions sounded at the door of the City Lord's Mansion. In the guest room, Chrissy had just packed away some gadgets such as perfume and accessories that she had brought with her when she was startled by the sudden movement.
"What, what's wrong?" The entire city lord's mansion seemed to be shaking violently.
"Earthquake?" She couldn't believe it. How far had she changed the original plot of this animation? Hey!
"No, it's magic." Tasia said in a serious tone.
"Looking from the direction where the magic wave is coming from, it seems to be over the city gate..." As she said that, she looked at Chris: "Chris, you and Wayne stay here and don't run around. I'll go take a look. what happened."
"Huh?" Before Chris could reply, Tasia disappeared in a flash. Looking at the direction she left, Chris was confused.
"What is going on?" However, since Tasia said not to run around, for the sake of safety, she should stay with Wayne.
She walked outside and looked at the closed door of Wayne's room next door.
"Wayne, something seems to have happened." After calling him, Chris wanted to open the door directly. However, the door was locked.
Chrissy:? ? ?
"Wayne? Didn't you say we pack our things and leave? Why did we lock the door?" Chris had a strange feeling.
Generally speaking, locking the door is to protect your privacy. Or rather, secrets. But in such a short period of time, does Wayne have an important secret that he doesn't want anyone else to know?
"Ah, wait a minute!" came his response from inside. For some reason, his voice seemed a little weird.
It has become...a lot stranger. (Search on Baidu on mobile phone for [My Sister is the Villainous Daughter + New Book] Click to read on mobile phone to turn pages, eye protection. Power saving. Data saving function)
