Chapter 108 Homeward Journey
Will Castle.
This castle, which has a history of sixty or seventy years, has experienced a terrible war. But the scale of the war was not large and it ended quickly, so it did not cause any damage to the castle.
At this moment, the guards and servants were cleaning up the castle, including traces of the war, the bodies of Allen and Davis, and his disgusting artworks.
When the servants cleaned up those "artworks", every servant was trembling. What kind of terrible person could do such a thing?
The atmosphere of the whole castle was very depressing and terrifying.
In the living room on the second floor of the castle, Luther, Latin Will, Mr. Tel, the two mountain knights of the Will family, and the four family knights of the Pompeii family were all sitting in a row.
The main seat was of course Latin Will. This contemporary Will Knight had gotten rid of the control of magic, but his face was still very bad and his spirit was very depressed.
This is normal. Anyone who has been controlled for several years will have all kinds of sequelae.
"Thank you very much, great Knight Luther. Your kindness and bravery saved me and the Will family." Latin Will placed his right hand on his chest and bowed to Luther.
The two mountain knights also bowed their heads deeply to Luther. Saving their lord was even more important than saving their lives. This was the loyalty of a knight.
"My target was a beautiful noble girl. I thought you were in cahoots with the evil wizard and wanted to chop off your head. Saving the Will family was just a coincidence, so you don't have to take it to heart."
Luther didn't want to take credit. This kind of credit had no meaning.
"No matter what your purpose was, it was an undeniable fact that you saved the Will family. Will will always remember this favor." Latin Will insisted.
After being controlled for several years, wandering in despair and dreams, no one could understand this pain. The stronger the pain, the stronger the gratitude.
At this moment, Latin Will's gratitude to Luther could not be expressed in words.
Since Latin Will insisted, Luther didn't say anything more. He had no ill feelings towards Latin and Will. There was nothing he could do about being controlled.
He thought for a moment and said, "If you are sincerely grateful, then please keep this a secret. There has never been an evil wizard in Will Castle, and I have never been to Will Castle."
"Why!!!"
The four family knights first had doubts in their hearts. Leading the knights to fight an evil wizard and rescue Knight Will was a great achievement.
It was of great benefit to Luther's personal prestige.
Why did Knight Luther give up this achievement?
The family knights didn't understand, but Latin and Will obviously understood. He nodded and smiled and said, "As you wish."
This was a very simple political consideration.
No matter what Luther and Pompey's purpose was, they launched a war against Knight Will. After all, it was against the fact that the Pompey family and the Will family were both vassals of Baron Barton.
In addition, the strength of the Pompey family was increasing rapidly. If Baron Barton knew about this, it might cause the baron to be suspicious of the Pompey family.
Luther had been prepared to kill Latin and Will to avenge Miss Ruth, but now Miss Ruth is missing, and Latin and Will are controlled by the evil wizard and have no choice.
It is a relatively good result.
Luther does not intend to make trouble and let this matter be publicized.
And this matter is also good for the Will family. After all, Latin and Will, as contemporary Will Knights, are controlled by a wizard, which is a great humiliation for a knight lord.
The Will family was established only 72 years ago, and the foundation is not solid. If this matter is publicized, it will be a great blow to the reputation of the Will family.
The two people quickly reached a consensus on this matter and talked about it. Mainly, Latin and Will intentionally approached Luther and revealed that they hoped to participate in some gatherings of the six major families.
This restored Latin and Will Knight is full of politician's nature, trying hard to get rid of the current isolated political situation of the Will family and seek political alliances.
Luther thought about it and said that he would help convey it to his father, Old Sol. He euphemistically said that he was just the next generation of Pompeii knights.
In fact, Luther just didn't trust his political experience. Although he felt that he could accept the Will family to join the six major families and become the seven major knight families.
But what impact would the absorption of the Will family have on the political power of Patton Territory?
Pros or cons.
Luther couldn't calculate this, so he should leave it to old Sol. His cunning father was an absolutely qualified politician.
Latin, Will understood this and didn't force it.
All in all, the conversation was still very pleasant.
After that, Luther stayed in Will Castle for two days, and then led the knights to send Mr. Tel back to Kaiyue City, and then returned to Pompeii.
It was not mainly because of Luther, but mainly because of Mr. Tel.
After the death of the evil wizards, Allen and Davis, they left behind a large number of books. These books represent knowledge, and knowledge is priceless for a wizard.
According to the original agreement, Mr. Tel has the qualification to copy this knowledge. These two days are the time for Mr. Tel to copy.
The remaining original version is what Luther is going to take back to train Lily and little Maya.
This is the whole result of this battle.
Miss Ruth was not violated by the evil wizard, but disappeared. This is better than death, although the probability of finding Miss Ruth is extremely low.
Gained the friendship of Latin and Will.
Gained the knowledge of a formal wizard.
Although it is still regrettable and still worried about Miss Ruth, Luther's mood is somewhat better. During this period, Luther also planned to kidnap Mr. Tel, the older wizard apprentice, to Pompeii to educate Lily and little Maya.
But he was rejected.
The older wizard apprentice did not want to move.
Although Luther regretted it, he did not force it.
After sending Mr. Tel back to Kaiyue City, Luther hesitated for a moment and finally did not go to find Miss Ruth's family. Although the evil wizard was dead, the magic he cast was permanent.
Mr. Manha still remembered that his daughter went to the capital to study piano.
Although the final result of this matter was the same, Miss Ruth disappeared.
Memory can deceive people, but people cannot deceive people. The daughter has not appeared, so she must be missing. But it can be concealed as long as possible.
For the kind Mr. Manha, Luther can only deal with it this way.
Don't tell.
With a melancholy mood, Luther took a carriage back to Pompeii.
