Chapter 369 Miss Merry III

"OK!"

Dean first glanced at Miss Merry in surprise, and after seeing her expectant look and Earl Merry's beckoning eyes, Dean frowned, and then nodded slightly.

"This is really good!"

Miss Merry gave a low cheer.

Earl Merry nodded with a smile on the side.

The Grand Duke's swordsman frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything more.

However, the following dinner became a bit weird.

Miss Merry and the Archduke Sword Master, who were supposed to be talking to each other, did not continue to say a word. On the contrary, Dean and Miss Merry talked frequently.

As if they were just friends.

The family dinner lasted for about an hour. Although Miss Merry wanted to continue talking with Dean, it was obvious that the lady's body could no longer support her. After coughing uncontrollably, Earl Merry immediately After finishing dinner, he ordered someone to escort Miss Merry back to her room.

"Thank you, Dean! It's been a long time, I haven't seen Merry's smile! If it's possible, can you stay in Merry County for a while?"

After Miss Merry left, Earl Merry said suddenly.

"This... I'm so sorry! I came to the south because I had something to accomplish, not just for fun—and, I already have a wife!"

Dean shook his head and refused very simply.

Moreover, he directly stated the existence of Leni.

Dean didn't want the earl in front of him to misunderstand anything, and he didn't want to because of it. What happened due to misunderstanding.

"This, this... What a pity!"

Obviously. Earl Merry also knew about Leni's existence. Moreover, Dean was well aware of such an obvious gesture. The fat earl shook his head regretfully, then patted Dean on the shoulder vigorously, turned and left the restaurant.

"You shouldn't be so direct—whether it's from your own point of view or from the position of the Zelgon family!"

On the way back to the room.

The Grand Duke Swordsman said softly.

"From my point of view, I don't want to bear more emotions that are nothing but rewards. From the standpoint of the Zelgang family, I don't need to rely on marriage-this is me, as the current patriarch of the Zergang family. Lots of rights!"

Dean shrugged.

"Then, have you ever thought of being a little more tactful—Merry is a good girl, and this is the first time I've seen her show such an interest in the opposite sex!"

There was a hint of pondering in the tone of the Grand Duke's swordsman, but he still said it completely.

"Miss Meili? She is really a lady with a gentle temperament, and she should be kind-hearted... But, standing by my side. You need not only these, but also more... What a troublesome thing !"

Dean's last words were a little slurred.

"Are you feeling sorry for Leni?"

The archduke swordsman turned his head and looked at Dean without blinking.

"Well, I owe Leni too much!"

Dean nodded, and then walked towards his room at a faster pace. The moment he opened the door, he turned to the archduke swordsman and waved his hand: "Good night, instructor!"

"Good night, Dean!"

The Archduke Swordsman responded.

Then, the sword master looked at Dean's closed door, stood silently for a moment, and finally, took a long breath, turned and returned to his room.

...

In the room, there is a large bed, a table and matching chairs.

There is no wardrobe, but a hanger by the door and a hanger by the bed.

On the side with the bedside table, there is a shelf where weapons and armor can be placed.

Dean's [Imitation. Xisteel Armor] [Imitation. Dragon Head Sword] were all placed there, and the [Sharp Thorn of the Wind] on his waist was subconsciously placed next to the pillow by Dean.

Even though this is the residence of the Earl of Merry, and the Mobius Ring has experienced the previous battle, it is impossible to make a comeback in a short time, but Dean cannot change the habit that has already been imprinted on the soul.

However, Dean does not intend to change this way of dealing with danger.

The coat was hung on the hanger at the head of the bed, and Dean, who was wearing underwear, lay on the bed with his eyes slightly squinted.

The eyeballs rolling through the eyelids undoubtedly showed that Dean was just dozing off.

In essence, I was still thinking about——

There's something about the purpose of buried talent-enhancing know-how, and there's also about Seymour's united family.

Of course, it was unavoidable, the armed fleet.

These are the most important things in front of Dean, and they are all closely related, so he has to be careful.

And just when Dean sorted out the plan in his mind again, there was a clear sound of footsteps, without the feeling of concealment, but coming straight to his room.

Boom, boom!

The next moment, there was a light knock on the door.

"Lord Zelgon, are you asleep?"

There was a burst of words following the knock on the door.

"Miss Merry?!"

Hearing that familiar voice, Dean was extremely surprised, and he asked subconsciously.

"it's me!"

The voice outside the door gave an affirmative answer.

Dean put on his coat again, and then, took the [Sharp Thorn of the Wind] on the side of the pillow in his hand, and walked towards the door - from the bed where Dean was sitting to the door, it was about seven minutes away. A distance of eight feet, but within this short distance of seven or eight feet, Dean's face changed continuously.

He has a deep sense of doubt about that Miss Merry!

If we say that the enthusiasm for him at the previous dinner can be understood as novelty and curiosity about external things-according to the description of the Grand Duke Swordsman, it is difficult for Miss Meri to leave her room because of her weak constitution and illness. You can get everything you want to know through books.

So, a strange, well-intentioned person appeared.

Some novelty and curiosity in itself is inevitable, however. This does not represent. In the middle of the night. Come and knock on his door.

After all, judging from the temperament shown by the other party and the Earl of Merry's own style, Dean would not believe that the other party would be so unrestrained.

What's more, Dean didn't think he had the charm to attract the other party.

First of all, he doesn't have the appearance that can turn thousands of girls upside down - Dean is self-aware of this.

Secondly, although he has the strength of the silver level. This appeals to some women, but not Merry.

After all, the other party's father is a strong man between silver and gold.

Therefore, the scene in front of him made Dean full of doubts.

And people like Dean, once doubts appear in their hearts, they will naturally be careful——

"Miss Merry, it's so late..."

In order to avoid the attack after opening the door, Dean stood on the side of the door and opened the door with his scabbard; however. When the door was opened, he saw no one but that Miss Merry.

"Something. I want to ask Dean about you!"

Miss Meri, who was still wearing a plain long skirt and a cotton coat, stood in front of the door and said shyly.

"whats the matter?"

Dean asked.

"Don't you want to invite me into the room?"

Miss Merry looked at Dean suddenly, with a hint of resentment in her eyes that made Dean more and more puzzled—at least, Dean didn't think the other party should have such an expression at this moment.

"No, just because..."

Dean explained subconsciously, but a trace of abnormality in his perception made him squint his eyes.

Then, like a gust of wind, the whole person passed by Miss Meili's side, and the [Sharp Thorn of the Wind] in his hand, with a slight vibration, brought a piece of frost.

Pooh!

Amidst the sound of a sharp knife piercing into the flesh, in the shadow of the bushes in front of Dean's room, a figure fell out clutching his throat.

【xp+100】

The conspicuous xp value tells the opponent's ultimate strength - the medium strength of the great knight.

Looking at the corpse in front of him, Dean frowned.

"What's wrong?"

The Archduke Swordsman pushed the door out. When he saw Miss Merrie standing at the door of Dean's room, the Swordsman's expression changed, but then her attention was focused on the corpse.

"this is?"

The Archduke Swordsman inspected the corpse. When items such as daggers, daggers, crossbows and poison were found from the corpse, the Grand Duke Swordsman looked at Dean.

"It should be an organization similar to thieves. The Ring of Mobius is willing to hire such people to cause trouble for me! Instructor, can I trouble you to inform Earl Meri for me?"

Dean said groaningly.

"certainly!"

The Archduke Swordsman nodded without hesitation, and then walked out quickly.

When Dean and Miss Merry were left again, the lady of the Earl's family walked to Dean's side with a pale face—as if she was both frightened and physically weak.

"It's terrible, Dean. Is he a killer for you?"

Miss Merry looked terrified.

"Maybe it's for me, or maybe it's for someone else—Miss Assassin of the 'Brotherhood'!"

Dean turned around and said coldly.

"What? What are you talking about?"

Miss Merry looked puzzled.

"What shall I say again? You know it well. Do you think that after knowing my strength, someone will send an ordinary knight to test me? Please don't continue to pretend—you are good at [ Calling in the shadows] [Substitute Nine Deaths]... I still remember this! I also know some disadvantages of [Substitute Nine Deaths], you may be acting like the real Miss Meili now, but , Miss Meili is weak and sick; and you are the sequelae of using the [Substitute Nine Deaths Method]—but, it is precisely because of this that you chose the identity of 'Miss Meili' as your disguise, didn't you? ?”

As Dean spoke, the long sword in his hand was already placed on the neck of Miss 'Merry' opposite.
