Elsa said happily, leading to a burst of "hmmmm" laughter.

"Are you going to watch someone die without helping?"

"You were asking for favors from the wrong person from the very beginning."

Elsa glanced at her, which made Mary shudder. She said, "I'm not wandering around in this woods just because I'm bored."

Mary's hands and feet suddenly felt cold, and she thought of a terrible possibility.

Especially when she saw Elsa with her back to Lin Shu, but holding the knife, her body turned towards her——

"Are you in cahoots with that guy, Gut Hunter?"

Mary's body began to tremble and she kept retreating.

She is not a strong person in the true sense.

But not all assassins are as powerful as Elsa, who kills people head-on.

On the contrary, the real assassin is the one who kills the opponent silently without leaving any trace.

To be honest, before this, Mellie looked down on people like Elsa who hunted for fun while killing people.

Elsa still had a smile on her face, but she raised her eyebrows at Lin Shu in a protesting manner: "Although it is really infuriating that you compare me and that man to the same group, it does make sense to some extent."

Mary was dumbfounded, with beads of cold sweat oozing from her forehead.

After seeing Lin Shu coming towards her at this time.

She didn't think about it for too long before she surrendered: "I give in. I will answer anything you want to know from me."

Her appearance is that of a little girl.

Although I don't know how she did it.

But this allows her to always use this posture to make people let down their guard.

But this didn't work for the man in front of him. He was more concerned with practical matters: "Tell me where I can find you. Maybe I'll have something to entrust you with later."

Mary didn't dare to refuse and could only agree.

Watching Mary's figure disappear behind the bushes.

"You're just going to let her go like that?"

Elsa narrowed her eyes slightly and watched Lin Shu walk around behind her, rest his head on her shoulder, take a deep breath, and then those two restless hands had already passed through Elsa's dress.

"When I have such a charming beauty in front of me, that kind of cheap stuff is not even enough to add to the fun."

"Oh, it's an honor." Elsa laughed.

..............

Roswaal returned in the evening of the next day.

The commotion in the forest has died down.

214 The King's Selection Begins, Win Emilia's Heart!

All he needed to do was to re-seal the broken seals around the village.

"It's really reliable to have Lin Shu here."

It was still the same strange tune that was sung with long notes from time to time.

Roswaal patted Lin Shu's arm affectionately and praised him.

Although the Earl seems so approachable, judging from the confession of the Warcraft Master,

The one who brought misfortune to this town was still this mysterious Earl.

Lin Shu had no idea what his purpose was in ordering assassins like Elsa and Mellie to act.

Lin Shu once asked Beatrice, who had lived in this mansion for many years,

Beatrice couldn't tell what Roswaal's purpose was.

Honestly.

After the Greedy Witch who linked the two people was sealed.

Although they lived under the same roof, they had no interaction at all.

However, he still gained an important piece of information from the other party.

That is, Roswaal extends his life by possessing his descendants.

The ultimate goal of his chaotic actions is to free the Witch of Greed.

"Roswaal has been in this cycle of reincarnation for four hundred years, and he might have gone mad long ago."

Beatrice frowned when she talked about this issue: "The way he was reborn is too unethical. Not only men, but also women.

While depriving one of life, one's own humanity is also diminished through these repeated rebirths."

"Maybe he has long forgotten the real reason why he wanted to save his mother.

I'm just bound by this obsession that I can't let go of and can't stop."

"Because once this mission is stripped away, all that's left inside that body might be a decayed, broken, empty shell."

Beatrice was harsh in her comments about Roswaal.

But judging from the loneliness she revealed at that moment.

What she has more is helplessness and sadness.

To comfort Beatrice who had such an expression.

Lin Shu naturally picked her up and gave her a good beating, leaving her with no energy to think about anything else.

As for Ram, his bed-serving duties were once every two days.

And added the task of morning communication every morning.

Of course, this does not include the probability of being randomly attacked during the day.

Often, Ram and Rem work separately.

Wait until Rem finishes her work and comes back to take a look.

My sister is gone.

Fortunately, Ram has had the habit of being lazy since a long time ago.

Rem didn't doubt it too much.

She has no idea at all.

My own sister is behind the same wall, doing something unexpected.

This shameless life in the mansion continued.

About four days later.

A dragon carriage was sent from the royal city.

Summon Emilia and Roswaal to the capital

The one who arrived in the dragon carriage was none other than Crusch’s butler, Wilhelm.

Also accompanying him were two of Lin Shu's acquaintances.

Felix Konan and Subaru Natsuki.

"Mr. Lin Shu, it's been a long time since I last greeted you."

The old butler still looked very imposing when he greeted people.

After Lin Shu extended the same greeting, he turned his gaze to Natsuki Subaru who was standing next to the cat girl. "My foolish brother, you didn't cause any trouble to my family, did you?"

Natsuki Subaru was stunned.

But he quickly remembered that he and Lin Shu did have such a disguised brotherhood.

He rubbed his nose with his fingers and said proudly, "Ah, thanks to Master Wilhelm who has been teaching me sword skills recently, I feel like I can now take on ten of those thugs by myself."

Lin Shu patted Subaru's shoulder to show encouragement.

He also secretly gave him a look that suggested they communicate privately later.

Then Lin Shu asked the others as if nothing had happened, "I wonder what exactly you are here for?"

The old butler and Felix, dressed in a white knight's uniform, exchanged glances, and Felix asked, "Is Lin Shu the knight of Lady Emilia?"

"Yes." Lin Shu nodded and admitted it generously.

"Then it's okay to tell Lin Shu about this, since you are also involved.

In fact, the palace is anxious to summon the candidates for the king and their knights to the palace.

"For what?"

"It seems that the fifth candidate, who has been missing for a long time, has finally been identified."

Wilhelm said.

"Does this mean the royal election is about to begin?"

Lin Shu narrowed his eyes.

Wilhelm and Felix both nodded.

At this moment, Emilia and Roswaal came out of the mansion.

Emilia walked up to Lin Shu. They had just read the official letter.

"Lin Shu, actually..."

"I already know the details. As your knight, I will always be your sword, guarding you by your side."

Emilia smiled.

Then, accompanied by Roswaal, he boarded the dragon carriage.

"What a cool answer."

The cat girl praised, "Since the dragon carriage is full, Subaru should take the next one with his brother."
