Chapter 785 God will not allow me to cause Miss to lose her honor 78
In this way, Song Jinhuan could stay in her room all day.
You won't feel bored at all.
More than fun, safety is what Song Jinhuan wants most.
...
Colin, sword in hand, returns to the scene of the temple fair riot.
"What's this?"
Guard Captain Will Marlowe suddenly squatted down and pointed to a pattern drawn with black charcoal.
Colin took two steps forward and squatted down.
The first thing you see is the tails of nine mice tied together.
"Ancient books record that this pattern depicts the behavior of the Rat King, which signifies the arrival of death and disaster."
The guard was taken aback. "Could they be plotting something? This is a warning to the world!"
Colin sneered, "Actually, the reason why mice tangle their tails together is simply because their tails get too dirty and sticky during hibernation, making them unable to separate."
"Even if the last one survives, it will be dragged down by its companions and die."
"It is less a warning than a prophecy of a heretic to himself."
Like every rat in the Rat King's story, they all eventually die.
This pattern seems more like a way of conveying a message.
Their money was insufficient due to the ever-growing number of infidels.
This riot seems more like an outlet for venting discontent.
Cracks have appeared inside.
How foolish.
It was a bunch of idiots who spoiled Miss Agatha's mood...
He narrowed his eyes and said to the guard captain, "Spread the word that due to the infidel attack, the official in charge of construction has specially moved the temple fair's incense and money to a safe place."
As for how to get the news out, the guard chief said he was very good at it.
The atmosphere on the island became very tense.
The guards patrolled in shifts, and some people sighed during their breaks.
"I really envy the other class, they have it so easy."
"How can it be easy?"
"All we need to do is escort the goods, and we get a day off."
"Ever since the riots, they've started moving their valuables to a safer place!"
"It's a pity I wasn't selected, otherwise I wouldn't have to keep patrolling."
Even the whispered chatter, though kept low, can still be carried by the wind to the ears of those who are paying attention.
That night, Colin and the guard were ambushed and taken back to the infidel's lair along with several boxes of gold coins and gems.
The heretic leader, Mike Fuller, particularly admired Colin's abilities, saying, "What future is there in being a knight?"
"He was bound by the so-called eight virtues his whole life, loyal to the king and devoted to the Church of St. Mary."
"Because they are hypocritical enough, they set and operated the Nabersgan rules entirely with their own profit in mind."
“Colin, I’ve heard of you, and I know your past hasn’t been easy.”
"Believe me, if you join us, you can become the person you want to be!"
"You became a knight entirely because of the pressures of life!"
"Join us and let us bridge the gap between classes that has never been able to be crossed."
"Noble ladies, you can have whichever one you want! You no longer have to grovel before them because of their status!"
It has to be said that the last two sentences really hit Colin's sweet spot.
Then, Mike's first two sentences reminded Colin of something else.
Even as a knight, he only upheld the eight virtues for Miss Agatha Christie throughout his life.
He was loyal only to Miss Agatha Christie.
No one but Miss Agatha could gain his loyalty.
It was precisely because of his troubled past that he received such special indulgence and tenderness from Miss Agatha.
It was well worth it for him.
