Chapter 1033 Chapter 264. Gift Giving
"She seems to be feeling a little unwell. It's not my fault."
Annan returned to Renato.
"Did you step on someone's foot?"
"No, probably not." Annan touched his cheek: "Maybe he doesn't like the type of Olmer... hehe."
Annan was grinning because his image was based on Olmedo.
Renato didn't understand. He just felt that no matter how many honors Annan had, he was still just a young man after all.
"I blocked some nobles who wanted to get close to you." Renato picked up a glass of red wine.
"On the list?"
"Ah."
"Are you really going to let none of them go?"
"It doesn't matter what I say."
Whether they can live depends on what they have done. If there are people who never oppress civilians and distribute food for free, Annan will take the initiative to apologize... but such people will not appear on the list.
"Many people did not collude with the Freedom Blade. They did not have the guts."
"I know. At worst I can just say sorry to them during the execution."
Annan and Renato smiled at each other.
The nobles have no value, their only value is themselves——
"Mr. Lei...Mr. Renato, Mr. Olme..."
A stuttering greeting came from the side, and a male noble with a short mustache walked over.
Annan put down the wine glass he was holding for show and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"
"You do not know?"
The male noble showed a kind of secret joy, and his back straightened quietly, but he kept a low profile: "I have admired you for a long time, Mr. Olme, please enjoy this banquet."
As if afraid of being recognized by Annan, the male noble walked away with ease.
"Who's on the list?"
Annan's inquiry was confirmed by Renato.
"It's decided. I'm going to operate on him when I get home tonight."
“Isn’t this a bit inhumane?”
"There's no need to talk about morality with them."
Renato couldn't help but think that Annan's hatred for the nobles seemed to be more than just for the purpose of making money... He didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing for them who had taken refuge in the Free City.
As the banquet continued, Renato accompanied Annan in the "quiet corner" of the banquet, and no one came to disturb them.
At a certain moment, the lively banquet suddenly fell silent for a moment.
Annan looked out the door and saw the council chief and Agarwal coming in.
Agarwal was wearing a fiery red wizard robe and had an arrogant look on his face.
Annan only glanced at him, but the legendary wizard's perception was so sharp that he captured even that bit of hidden malice. His gaze pounced towards Annan like a violent fire dragon.
"He is Master Olme, you should have heard of him..." the chairman of the parliament introduced and nodded to Annan.
Renato raised his glass and Annan returned the toast.
"Oh."
Agarwal responded indifferently, treating Annan as a tiny ant.
The pride of this legendary wizard known as the Fire Dragon remained the same as always, without any change - just as firm as when he escaped.
Annan thought that the upcoming banquet had nothing to do with him, but not long after, the chairman of the parliament walked towards him.
Fortunately, he didn't bring Agarwal with him, otherwise Annan would not be able to control his emotions and not reveal himself.
"Do you still like it?"
"I'm not used to it." Annan said directly, "There are not many people I want to get to know, but there are quite a few I want to capture."
The councillor smiled and said, "Don't worry, young man. The future will eventually be yours."
Annan was momentarily surprised, and Renato continued, "That's too polite of you to say."
The chairman of the council looked at him and said, "Reinaldo, can I have a few words alone with your nephew?"
Renato took a deep breath and said, "Of course... Mr. Olmey, don't make the councillor angry."
"Uncle, I'm not a child anymore."
Annan and Renato acted out an uncle-nephew relationship. After Renato left, the chairman of the senator looked at Annan's blond hair and said, "Olmedo should be about the same age as you, right?"
Annan almost blurted out, "Do you miss your family?" "I just feel a little lonely." The chairman laughed.
Annan glanced at the guests standing in the hall. Was he lonely?
"Is there anything you want to tell me?"
The emotion was only temporary. The councillor restrained his emotions, as if the sadness just now was just an illusion: "I came here to thank you."
"Thank me?"
"Clear the kingdom of sin."
The parliamentary chairman showed goodwill, but it was Annan who kept his distance: "As a citizen of the kingdom, this is what I should do."
"Be firm in your heart. Your uncle and I stand on your side." The chairman patted Annan on the shoulder.
"Thank you for your kindness."
"Do your job well, and I will consider handing the case over to you for investigation."
"That case?"
"You'll know."
The Speaker left, as if he had come to Annan just to say this.
Or to show it to other guests at the party?
Annan glanced at the nobles who were watching the Speaker of the Parliament's every move and saw him patting his shoulders earlier.
Renato came back and Annan pointed at his shoulder, signaling him to stop talking.
"Nephew, someone asked me to give you a letter." Renato understood and gave the letter to Annan.
Annan took the letter and signed it Mrs. Haley.
Who is this?
Annan recalled for a long time before he remembered that this was the nobleman behind the Lime Gang.
After tearing open the envelope, Renato looked away when he saw the lipstick marks on the letter.
Dear Mr. Olmer:
I think there is some misunderstanding between us, why don't you come to my room at noon tonight so I can clear up the misunderstanding? 】
"Want to go?"
"I suspect it's a trap." Annan tore Mrs. Haley's kindness into pieces.
Renato couldn't help but think that Lord Annan had sacrificed too much for his career.
He tore off...
"By the way, the president of the congress said that he would give me 'that case' to investigate. Do you know what it is?"
"That case..." Renato shook his head.
The clues were too vague to be traced back.
After the banquet, Annan and Renato got on a carriage and returned to the official residence. As soon as they returned to the hall, Annan couldn't wait to conduct a full inspection, but found nothing.
How come nothing was discovered?
Annan was worried: "I always feel like the chairman seems to know something..."
"That's impossible. The Councillor will never stand on our side."
"why?"
"because……"
Renato was suddenly stunned, and caught a glimpse of inspiration about "that case".
Annan did not disturb him from thinking. At this time, he saw his confidant running in and said that another noble had sent a cart of gifts outside.
"Take me to see it."
Renato was still in deep thought when Annan followed his confidant to the gate of the manor.
"Sir, the gift is in the car." The butler gestured.
Annan curiously walked up to the car and opened the door.
A shirtless burly man sitting in the carriage saw Annan, winked playfully, bit his lip, and moved his hands from his chest to his legs.
Annan asked the butler beside him: "What do you mean?"
The butler said flatteringly: "Baron Reiner thinks you will like it..."
"I changed my mind. Kill Reiner first."
