The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 215 Harper

"Are you sure that you are really that foodie wife of Delton, and not someone else's fake one?" Pastor Ainuwen looked at the woman in front of him in surprise, and glanced at the woman who was lying on the ground, clutching her crotch and rolling from time to time. Former innkeeper.

This is really surprising. Who in the Golden Fields doesn't know "Rotten" Delton, that damn bastard married an enviable and capable wife. Everyone believes that if it wasn't for hardworking Ruth Hold on, the "Golden Horn" Inn has already gone bankrupt eight hundred times.However, the rotten man Delton didn't know how to cherish it. He beat Ruth every once in a while when he was drunk. Almost everyone who knew it hated it but had no choice.

However, this little woman who always looked weak and irritated turned into a fierce and fierce female warrior in a blink of an eye, which really made the monks present drop their jaws all over the place. The neighbors who wanted to watch had already been driven back to sleep by Ai Niuwen, otherwise they would be more stimulated.

Ruth gently lifted a corner of the cloak, revealing a pin-like ornament, snorting and pretending to be displeased: "Although Dalton is a bad person, he is still my husband. And what you need to do now is not to stand Here to laugh at others, but to punish those few bloody troublemakers."

"Harper? I didn't expect it to be you. I thought it was that guy Delton! This is really humming. I'm curious. With your ability, how could you watch the other party make trouble? Is it always meddling Has the harpist changed his temper? This is good news!" When Ai Niuwen saw the ornaments on Ruth's cloak, he couldn't help being surprised, and then he showed a clear look, and couldn't help but sarcastically.

In fact, the Harpers at this time are in an awkward situation in Faerun. They are a very loose, secretive and contradictory organization with unknown leaders and complex internal personnel.They are always hidden in the shadows, fighting against evil in some seemingly insignificant or even deviant ways, they will only take action at critical points in the current situation, and they will immediately disappear in the crowd after completing the task.But ordinary people don't understand them. People who enjoy high positions hate and spurn them. In the eyes of people with stable lives, the harpers are a group of terrorists and spies who like to conspire and subvert, and some suffering "poor people" But I also feel that these incomprehensible guys do things inappropriately, and when they get hot-headed, they make things worse.

To put it bluntly, the early Harper League was just a group of stupid idealists. After several major blows, their organizational system gradually improved, especially Elminster and the Silver-haired Sisters. After a group of hardcore people joined, the organization almost became the endorsement of the goddess of magic, Mystra, and its reputation gradually reversed. However, in the minds of many high-ranking people, they are still a group of unwelcome existences, because no one likes them There are always some inexplicable "spies" hiding around.

Undoubtedly, Ainuwen is also a member who does not welcome Harpers. He even suspected that there were Harpers' spies in the "Golden Horn" Inn a long time ago. There is a deep connection between the two layers, and Ai Niuwen can only pretend not to see it and keep it at a respectful distance.

Seeing the dejected Priest Chauntia, Lu waved her hands indifferently. She knew very well that the hypocritical man standing in front of her was more like a thick, dark man than a servant serving God. politician.Pretending, putting on a show, and whitewashing are Ainuwen's forte. Of course, Ainuwen is not a leader who does nothing, otherwise the leadership of Waterdeep City would not let him take charge of the fertile soil of the Golden Fields, at least in Ainuwen. Under the leadership of the Golden Fields, the grain has already begun to have an impact on the entire Sword Coast grain market, and it is foreseeable that this influence will gradually expand. Ruth does not want to directly offend this possible future lord.

"Let me go fight those two monsters? Please, I don't want to become an undead so early. But now that Mr. Ainuwen is helping, I think there shouldn't be any problem. My inn is worth a lot of money." Well, so, I decided to go with you to hunt down those bastards who escaped, and even if they stripped off their pants, we have to compensate us for the loss!" Ruth, who spoke, looked more like a female hooligan, a bit arrogant means.

But Ai Niuwen murmured in his heart, he didn't believe what the female harp player said, the pastor believed that every harp player's appearance was not without purpose, and he said inwardly: "Fight those troublemakers?Go to hell!I'm afraid it's true to monitor Lao Tzu.Damn old thing, really don't worry about me.And these insane interveners, spies... want to pester me for trouble, don't even think about it!
Pastor Ainuwen sneered and said: "Sorry, Ms. Ruth, I have more important things to do now, I need to rush back to the monastery as soon as possible to purify an evil magic device, but I don't have time to accompany you to deal with those drunk Tramps who have been drinking and making trouble. If you want, you can go after them yourself." After speaking, he called out to his men, got on his horse and left quickly.

Ruth looked at the backs of the monastery monks going away, with a strange smile on the corner of her mouth.It wasn't until the sound of the horse's hooves faded away that she looked back at her husband who was still trembling on the ground, and said with a light smile, "Okay, they've gone far! Stop pretending. Hey dear."

Ruth screamed a few times, and found that her husband was still trembling on the ground, so she went to the front and squatted down, deliberately gloating: "Oh! Does it really hurt? I don't seem to have much strength."

Delton rolled his eyes and stared at his wife, screaming angrily like an extremely shy little daughter-in-law: "Damn it hurts. It hurts. It hurts! You. You. Hit my vitals! ——!” Then he gasped continuously.

Ruth snorted softly with a smile, patted Delton's dusty cheek and said with a smile: "I'm going away for a while, looking after my home and little Jimmy. If... forget it! I'm leaving! By the way, be careful of Ai Niuwen , he is an insidious guy." After speaking, Ruth turned and walked towards the dark wilderness, which was the direction William left.
On the galloping horse, Ai Niuwen's complexion was changing, and one of his subordinates asked, "Sir, can we just settle like this?"

Ai Niuwen suddenly pulled the rein to stop the horse's hooves, and the other men were caught off guard and stopped their mounts one after another in a panic. Ai Niuwen sneered: "Of course not! It's hard to see what happened. Ren, go follow Lu Mrs. Sinna, when you find those strangers, go back to the monastery and let me know."
