Chapter 26 26 Waiting for the Fool to Come

Chapter 26 26. Waiting for the Fool to Come

The beloved thing became scarred, and the emotional Andrew was panicked after listening to Lu Yu's words, and then showed a confused look.

Assaulting nobles, this is not a small accusation.

In many places of this era, if the law is more lenient, nobles kill ordinary people, and there is no responsibility, and it is nothing more than compensation.

When ordinary royal families are investigated, they also publish a declaration of guilt in their own territory.

This declaration is not for the people below to see, but to tell the royal family that they have no opinion on the laws made by the royal family, and will not make mistakes again while ensuring everyone's interests.

Then they offer some small compensation for blaspheming the law to the royal family, and everyone is happy.

If the person killed a slave, he would not be held responsible.

After the transaction is completed, the slave becomes a private property, and whether he lives or dies depends on the mood of the owner.

But if the target of your attack is a knight who has broken away from the general class, a noble with a title, even if it is the smallest, the most insignificant, and the unpopular noble, you will get into big trouble.

In the case of a life-and-death situation, an open attack is to destroy the rules that everyone has made together.

Andrew is very clear about the seriousness of the problem, but the problem is... although his demon-breaking puppet can move, it is just able to move, and her movements are completely out of control.

Once after it was activated, the demon-breaking puppet slapped him in a series of slaps, swollen his face.

After modifying the magic circle and successfully nesting it, the demon-breaking puppet's movements became very chaotic.

It is normal for the whole body to shake randomly like convulsions, fall to the ground with a plop, and twist the body like a fish.

Lu Yu said that her movements were coherent and agile, and a set of military boxing almost seriously injured Lu Yu...

Andrew really couldn't imagine that kind of scene.

Seeing that Andrew didn't believe it, Lu Yu motioned him to go into the house with him.

A torch was handed to Andrew by Lu Yu.

"Take a look, this is the mark left by my fight with her."

At the entrance, a large number of white scratches appeared under the light of the fire.

On the wall behind the door, a pit caused by several collisions was clearly visible.

Andrew reached out and touched it, and gravel and wall dust fell down.

Lu Yu had no idea that he would come late at night, so there was no possibility that he would temporarily create such a scene to deceive him.

Although Andrew was a little curious about how the mark of the octopus-like slender tentacles on the concave part of the wall was made, he didn't want to think about it carefully.

My puppet really moved and planned to kill people?

The one he killed was his tenant, a noble who traveled around.

Then Andrew thought of something he had been ignoring since just now.

This magic-breaking puppet he found in the Goblin Underground Palace was tested by himself and was no problem to deal with a third-level magician under normal operation.

The traces of such fierce fighting at the scene are enough to prove that the Demon-Destroying Doll was in a strange "normal operation" state at that time.

Being able to deal with the Demon-Destroying Doll and beat it into such a tragic state...

Andrew secretly glanced at Lu Yu and said with a fake fear.

"Fortunately, your strength is amazing and your martial arts are exquisite. If it was a magician who stayed here, I'm afraid something worse would happen today."

"I am a magician." Lu Yu glanced at Andrew.

Andrew shuddered, and on the surface he was calm, but his scalp was numb.

Being able to smash the Demon-Destroying Doll that was functioning normally, and it was a magician... third level?

No, a third-level magician is not good enough. The distortion effect of the Demon-Destroying Doll on magic will make a lot of magic invalid.

But...is there such a young fourth-level magician?

How old is he?

In his early twenties?

He doesn't look like a sub-human.

Andrew is still young after all, and has no experience in dealing with such things.

As one guess after another popped up in his mind, his uneasiness became stronger and stronger.

He came back from the East Territory to ask his father to stop "selling" him temporarily.

Young, a second-level magician, good military achievements, and popular in the royal knights, these attributes gathered in Andrew, and attracted many people who were concerned about his marriage.

Before, he argued with reason to ask the family not to push him forward too early, so that he would have time to study magic and learn how to make puppets.

However, puppet masters are just "strange and tricky skills" for most people here.

They hope that Andrew will have greater achievements in studying magic, master more power, and lead the family to climb up.

Soon, Yas III will make a big move in the East Territory. If Andrew performs well, they, as the royal descendants, will rise to the top in no time.

"When you become a fourth-level magician and a big figure in the Yas Kingdom, you can study your puppets however you want."

His father's promise is more like a joke. By then, will he really have time to study, and can he really unload the burden he carries?

He had made military achievements in the East Territory and received unanimous praise from the old lords, just to make his father give in when he returned home.

Now that the demon-breaking doll he used for learning had an accident, Andrew could imagine his father's anger.

I'm afraid he will never touch on this matter again.

"It is indeed my responsibility for what happened. I will compensate you for the loss, but not now."

Seeing Lu Yu's dissatisfaction, Andrew hurriedly said, "It's getting late. I'll give you an explanation tomorrow."

Andrew took off his sword and put it on the ground.

"This is a pledge."

Lu Yu didn't expect Andrew to enter the compensation mode so smoothly after understanding the whole story. Is it his personality?

Lu Yu picked up the sword, waved his hand, and said impatiently: "I'm waiting for your response. I hope you won't think of finding someone to kill you after you go home."

Andrew, who was originally very humble, frowned, and the smile on his face froze instantly.

"Are you questioning the credibility of the Turner family? I beg you to take back your words."

Lu Yu looked back at Andrew with a fake smile.

"You may have forgotten that there is a possibility that you originally planned to use the puppet to murder the tenant, but you never expected to meet me."

"I fought back hard and subdued the puppet. You were afraid that the matter would be exposed, so you hurried to me to get the evidence back."

"You!"

"What do you mean you? I just subdued the puppet, and you rode here right after. It's so coincidental that it's hard to believe that this is a coincidence."

Andrew wanted to say something, but he couldn't argue.

In terms of time, it was indeed too coincidental.

He had just returned to the royal city, and his puppet attacked Lu Yu. Even if he sought notarization from a third party, the Turner family would have doubts about this matter.

There were many rumors about this house because of the death of two magicians. Those bizarre words once made several Turner mansions unrentable.

If this attack was exposed, then even if the Turner family had not done this, the people would happily start to make unwarranted associations.

The enemies of the Turner family would definitely use these things to ridicule and disgust the people in the family.

"Andrew, for the sake of being a noble, I'm already very easy to talk to you by asking you to take the evidence. If you really want to control what I say..."

Lu Yu patted his shoulder: "Then let's duel. If you win, I'll shut up."

Andrew looked up and stared at Lu Yu's eyes. After a while, he looked away.

Lu Yu's expression and eyes all revealed strong confidence.

Thinking that the magic-breaking puppet was beaten and scarred when dealing with him, and he was even a magician...

It's hard to win.

Andrew bowed to Lu Yu, put the cloth bag he carried with him next to his sword, and took the initiative to indicate that the puppet should be left to Lu Yu for safekeeping, and he would only take the driving crystal core.

Lu Yu agreed to his request and threw the cracked crystal core to him.

"Sir Lu Yu, I will definitely visit you at noon tomorrow."

After saying that, he rode on his horse and left without looking back.

After confirming that Andrew had really left, Lulutis quickly appeared, dragged the puppet back to the house, closed the door, and locked it.

Following Lu Yu to the quiet kitchen, he lit the light, untied the cloth bag, and a small bag of metal coins fell on the wooden table, making a pleasant sound.

Lulutis lit a torch, and under the firelight, the two happily counted the money.

"Lu Yu, I don't understand you a little bit. You are so timid in doing things, why are you so bold in acting this time?"

Several times just now, Lulutis felt that Lu Yu was going to talk and collapse, but in the end he actually stabilized.

Stabilizing was not the most powerful thing. He controlled the rhythm of the conversation and firmly suppressed Andrew's momentum.

It was clear that Lu Yu was a new magician who had just started, but Andrew was very afraid of him.

Lu Yu smiled and picked up a silver coin and put it under the torch to observe.

Hearing Lulutis's words, Lu Yu asked back.

"How else should I deal with it?"

"If I am timid and cowardly, how can I let him spread the news of my existence?"

"If I am just a coward, will he leave his sword and purse? Will he look up to me? Will he be afraid of me?"

"Even if you are a noble, you can only stand and talk with them. Only strength can earn respect."

"So different scenarios require different responses."

Lulutis asked: "This shouldn't be the 'someone sending money' you planned?"

"Of course not, the show is not over yet." Lu Yu said, "Originally, I planned to let Sigrid spread the news that I was short of money, but Andrew showed me a shortcut."

Lu Yu blew out the torch and prepared to go upstairs to rest. When he passed the puppet, he squatted again, turned the puppet around, and asked Lulutis to check it again.

After confirming that it was correct, Lu Yu yawned.

"Go to bed early, Andrew may not be the only one here tomorrow."

"Let's bring some bad guys, so I can cheat without any psychological burden... Andrew is too naive, I will feel bad if I cheat him."
