Catherine's brows were frowned. Her husband is not such a simple and rude person.

"Well, indeed, so, how about you to supervise these bandit labor?"

Diablo looked up at the countess who seemed to have sensed something was wrong, and said with a smile.

"You let me supervise?"

"If you find it troublesome, forget it. I will arrange another knight."

"No, I'll do it!"

"That's fine, that's how it's arranged."

"Ah."

Catherine responded, glanced at the furnishings of the study, her eyes became gloomy, then turned and left the study without continuing to talk to Diablo.

boom!

Just as the Countess left, the door of the study room slammed shut behind her, making a crisp crashing sound.

Afterwards, a slightly bluish transparent smoke flowed from the ring on Diablo's right hand, and finally condensed into a young man who looked exactly like him at this time.

"Master Diablo, my wife, she is suspicious!"

"I'm already like this. If she doesn't doubt something, I will doubt whether she has a brain."

Diablo smiled. All the actions he took after entering this territory had nothing in common with the Earl of Downton. The only thing he had in common was his face.

"Oh, my lord, you don't pretend to hide it at all. I will never buy these things. It's a waste of money."

Downton glanced at the extravagant furnishings in the study, which made Diablo, who was completing the model of the city in front of him, roll his eyes involuntarily.

"What is waste? Tell me, apart from the ostentation, how else do you look like a nobleman? I just find a dog to live a better life than you."

Dirpolo really couldn't imagine that although life as a frontier nobleman might be a little poorer, he never imagined that a nobleman with 30 residents in a territory could be so downcast.

Apart from being big, the castle I live in has nothing to praise. It is old and dilapidated. These three words are used to describe the castle of the Earl of Downton.

The light in the castle is dark, the air is humid, and the corridors and rooms are uneven, just like the most primitive rough stone. In this kind of broken castle, servants often fall when they wake up at night.

How could Diablo bear such an environment, so on the first day of living in, Diablo began to decorate after cleaning up.

In fact, it’s nothing, that is, throwing away all the old and broken furniture, and then laying slate tiles on the walls and floors, and buying brand new furniture. In the eyes of the Earl of Downton, such a move is extravagant and wasteful. .

"Although I've had a hard time these days, there's nothing I can do about it. The expenses are too high..."

Earl Downton spread his hands, his face showed a helpless but very proud expression.

"Okay, shut up, I know you have a son and a daughter, you are very competitive, and you have both gone abroad to study, so you don't have to keep repeating to me."

When Diablo saw this guy's expression, he immediately knew what this guy wanted to say. It was nothing more than showing off his sons and daughters who had studied abroad because of their outstanding talents. He was already tired of hearing it.

"Haha, didn't I explain it to you, my lord? There is nothing I can do about my hard life. The children need tuition fees for their studies! I don't have any skills, so I can only squeeze out of living expenses."

Chapter 167 The City Occupied by Monsters

"That guy, absolutely can't be Downton!"

A tall and slender heroic woman with a sword on her waist walked in the newly repaired and smoothed corridor, bathed in the warm sunshine from the window, her gaze gradually became firm, without any hesitation in her eyes.

"Find out how bad the situation is first."

Catherine was walking in the castle, turned around and walked towards the stable of the castle. She noticed at a glance that there were a bunch of unfamiliar mounts in the stable, and at the same time, many familiar ones were missing.

"lady!"

When the countess arrived, the servants guarding the stables and taking care of the knights' mounts stepped forward one after another. These servants were different from other servants in the castle. There are some dire beasts.

"What's the matter with these beasts?"

Catherine looked at the monsters that appeared in the animal shed, the most conspicuous of which was a giant deer with a broken horn, a strong physique, and still in high spirits.

"These were brought back by the Earl and his knights." A servant said, with a bit of bitterness on his face. Taking care of these beasts is scary.

"These mounts are as if they were just domesticated. They are very ferocious. Several of us have been injured by them. Ma'am, I wonder if you can arrange for someone to help us?"

"Well, I'll arrange it later, but what about their original mounts? Didn't they come back together?"

"I don't know. I haven't seen it before. Something may have happened. None of the mounts that the Earl and the knights rode out came back."

"Well, okay, I see, you are lucky."

Catherine took a careful look at the particularly eye-catching ferocious beasts in the animal shed, nodded, and turned to leave.

"Downton! Did something happen to you?"

The change in the animal shed shattered another barrier in the countess' heart, but she still held some expectations in her heart. She wanted to see the knights who came back with "Downton" upstairs.

"Yo ma'am, what are you looking for? Do you need my help?"

Whatever comes to mind, all the muscles on Catherine's body are stretched tightly like strings at this moment, ready to exert force at any time.

"It's okay, I'll walk around!"

The countess looked at the bald man who blocked her way. The tall figure brought her an unparalleled pressure. In her eyes, the very kind figure of Zeng Jin was like covering the sun with one head. Come the monsters of endless darkness.

"Ma'am, your face seems a little uncomfortable, do you want me to show you?"

A presumptuous smile appeared on Lorraine's face, looking at the Countess who was facing him at this moment, raised her whole body strength, and was ready to explode at any time.

"No need!" Catherine gritted her teeth and refused, and stepped back step by step. She dared to swear that the bald man in front of her was definitely not the Sean she was familiar with. In fact, the bald knight, who couldn't even catch her sword, couldn't possibly bring such oppressive force to her.

"Really? I don't believe it?"

Looking at the countess who was facing him who was constantly retreating, Lorraine immediately pressed forward step by step, and the faint breath spread out, forming a closed field, which directly shielded the perception of the surrounding people.

"Humph!"

But at this moment, a cold snort suddenly resounded like thunder on the ground. In Catherine's eyes, the bald knight Sean, who was as ferocious as an indescribable monster, and the darkness in her eyes, were immediately swayed by this cold snort. Disappeared.

call--

Catherine looked at the corridor that became empty in the blink of an eye, and exhaled a long breath, panting violently in shock. At this moment, cold sweat flowed from all over her body, moistening her close-fitting clothing.

"Ma'am, what's the matter with you?"

This is a maid who passed by with her clothes watching.The countess, who was like being poured with a bucket of water, asked with some concern, this seemingly cold, but actually very kind lady has a high prestige in the castle.

"Come and help me."

At this time, Catherine felt as if she was about to collapse. She greeted the passing maid, only knowing that she suddenly desperately wanted a support, but the servant could only help her at most, but psychologically, she had nothing to rely on .

While the countess was relieving the pressure of a sudden encounter with a dragon, Diablo, who was originally calm, stared expressionlessly at the ancient hellfire dragon Lorraine disguised as a human in front of him.

"Lorraine, have I been so kind to you these days that you think you can do whatever you want?"

"Master Dragon Lord, what's the matter? I just wanted to test the countess. She seemed to have found something, so I just warned her, I didn't want to do anything."

Although the dragon lord in front of him was expressionless, Lorraine had already clearly sensed that the existence that controlled his soul was already angry.

"Did I tell you to do it? Who gave you permission to do it?"

Diablo took a step forward and appeared in front of the two-meter-tall strong man. He kicked him in the stomach, and the dragon disguised as a human was shot backward like a piece of shell, hitting the ground. On the wall, but what is surprising is that the wall of the study is like a copper wall and iron wall at this time. Although Lorraine smashed spider web-like cracks on it, the wall is not broken.

"Master Dragon Lord!"

Lorraine, who had been kicked by Diablo, raised his head and was about to say something, but saw a foot enlarged in front of his eyes, and then there was a sharp pain on his cheek.

"It seems that you have healed your scars and forgotten the pain, Lorraine, I don't have time to deal with you now, I will make a note of it this time, and next time, if you dare to act without authorization, I will pull your tendons and peel your skin , let you experience the feeling of you just falling into my hands."

Diablo, who kicked the dragon's head into the wall, said indifferently, but in his heart, he began to reflect on himself, whether the management of these evil dragons was too loose, after all, these evil dragons did what they wanted or did not intend Some of his actions are a disaster for the vast majority of living beings in the main material world.

"Don't forget your identity, Lorraine, you are my dragon slave, and a slave can only start to act after receiving the master's order." Diablo warned the evil dragon, he stepped down, Insulting is far more than destructive.

"I remember, Lord Dragon Lord, I am your servant, and I can only act upon your orders."

Lorraine, whose head was embedded in the wall, had a muffled voice without the slightest hint of arrogance. In front of Diablo, his pride had long since disappeared.

"get out!"

Diablo let go of his feet, and the bald man under his feet got up in embarrassment, then smiled shyly, flattered Diablo continuously, and finally disappeared in front of his eyes.

"Humph!"

Seeing the direction in which Lorraine disappeared, Diablo snorted coldly. He was not worried that his two feet just now would arouse Lorraine's resistance. Compared with the torture he had done to this hellfire dragon, That's nothing at all.

"Fear power but not virtue!"

Diablo knew exactly why those dragons succumbed to him. In the past, they succumbed to the power of his eldest wife, Queen Ophelia of the Blood Prison, but now they succumbed to the power he possesses now, and there is still a possibility in the future. Possess greater power.

From the beginning to the end, these evil dragons are just in awe of dragons that are more powerful than themselves. As for the noble character and noble quality, hahaha, can you eat it?

As time passed day by day, Cecil City was completely transformed under Diablo's will. Although it was not very good, it was finally no longer a mess.

Under the high fines, local residents and foreign mercenaries, adventurers and caravans have also learned to use public toilets and will not defecate anywhere.

And the countess Catherine in the castle is also increasingly frightened by successive investigations, because she contacts every knight disguised as a dragon who returns with Diablo.

Even with the example of Lorraine, these evil dragons did not do anything excessive to the countess, but they couldn't stand the noble lady's exuberant curiosity, and the level of life was enough to crush her. A breath of breath was enough for her to be terrified for a long time before she could recover.

This is not because Catherine's will is not firm enough, nor is she not brave enough, but because her body trembles instinctively.This is due to the large gap in life levels.

This actually made Diablo feel helpless, as long as this noble lady wasn't so curious, or simply smarter and pretended to be a blind and deaf person who couldn't see or hear, she would definitely not be worried every day.

"Catherine, don't work too hard, take a rest when you are tired, nothing will happen!"

In the bedroom that was also newly decorated, Diablo, who was reading a book on the bed, looked up at the blond young woman who walked in with a tired face, and smiled helplessly.

Looking at the face of the very cooperative Earl of Downton, he will not, and will not let his subordinates do anything to this noble lady. She is actually very safe. He is worried every day, but he is actually tossing himself.

Well, it can't be said that she is wrong, it can only be said that she knows too much.After all, it is difficult for anyone to sleep peacefully when they know that their husbands, important subordinates, or the highest power class in a city are controlled by a group of monsters.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

For half a month, Catherine was physically and mentally exhausted, and her heart was filled with a heavy sense of powerlessness. She really wanted to tear her face apart, but she knew that exposing everything might lead to a bad ending.

The monsters who had replaced her husband and his order were willing to play these role-playing games, and it was probably the safest thing to do.

Once exposed, these monsters are unwilling to continue acting, and it is hard to say what the result will be if they show their true colors. Maybe the whole city will be reduced to the ground because of her willfulness.

"I just want to be a competent lord, to build and develop this territory well, and I don't want to do anything, so you can sleep peacefully!"

Diablo looked at this clever but stubborn woman and smiled.In this city, Catherine was not the only one who discovered the anomaly, many people had discovered it. After all, those dragons under him were just disguised as humans.

But the vast majority of people only retreated after seeing the truth of a scale and a half armor, and then buried their heads in the sand like ostriches, pretending to know nothing, and no one was like Catherine, who continued with fear. track down people.

Chapter 168 No one can defy

"what!"

The woman uttered a scream and woke up from her sleep. Her supple pale gold hair was soaked in sweat and stuck to her forehead. The close-fitting pajamas were also wet and stuck tightly to her body, revealing her beautiful body curves. When she got out of bed When I sat up, I suddenly felt a chill.

"woke up!"

A plain voice came from beside her. Catherine turned her head and saw her husband sitting next to her with a book in his hand. This made Catherine shudder. She was actually sleeping next to a terrifying existence disguised as her husband, and she was still asleep. up.

"Look at you, you didn't sleep well!"

Diablo turned his head and looked at the young woman beside him who seemed to be having a nightmare, "What did you dream about?"

"How could I fall asleep?" Catherine was a little dazed, but also a little terrified, "You..."

"You will fall asleep, but because of your own reasons, I didn't do anything to you."

Diablo was actually a little surprised. He chatted with this terrified woman yesterday, and the woman settled down, then climbed into bed and fell asleep beside him. Such a development made Diablo Polo was inexplicably surprised.

Although he was a little ready to move, but considering the mood of Earl Downton who was still living in the soul ring in his hand, Diablo didn't do anything. He still had a lower limit for this. will do this kind of thing.

"how come?"

Catherine recalled it for a while, and immediately felt a little unbelievable. She was clearly afraid of the existence beside her.In the end, she was... What a shame, a faint sense of guilt welled up in her heart.

"I shouldn't be like this!"

"Catherine, just stay here and slowly think about the reason. If there is nothing else, I will go to work."

Diablo looked at the young woman struggling there, said hello, and then walked out of the bedroom slowly in a loose nightgown, ready to start a new day.

"Oh, by the way, let's appreciate the world from a different angle. Don't be pessimistic. The world may be more beautiful than you imagined!"
