Chapter 74 Your express delivery is about to arrive
A few days flew by.
The news of the disappearance of the Bond heir caused a stir in the empire, but the news that Miles Bond returned to the border safe and sound was rarely known.
The Bond house fell silent, but no one knew if it was the calm before the storm.
As a result, the empire has been in this high-pressure alert state, and everyone's hearts have been tightened, for fear that the escaped lion of the Bond family will bite anyone if it catches it.
It wasn't until the news of Miles Bond's appearance at the border of Kresse was sent back to the royal capital that he realized that the weather forecast was not always accurate.
The empire returned to its previous rhythm. The knights constantly patrolling the streets retreated, and the flow of people on the streets became lively. The tense atmosphere was instantly dissipated.
There were only a few inconspicuous corpses thrown out of the royal city by the Bond family. The putrid smell attracted flies everywhere.
At the same time, a group of cavalry flying the Bond family's flag quietly left the city. A carriage was swaying in the center, guarded by the cavalry, and the things on the carriage were wrapped tightly.
What was inside was the experimental baby sent to the border by the Bond family.
The escorts are mainly female knights.
The female knight leading the way had red hair, and the half-armor she wore exposed eight curvy abdominal muscles. Her eyes under the helmet seemed to be expecting something.
Isn't this person the battle maid codenamed "2": Listia.
By the way.
The Bond family wears temporary slave bracelets on slaves who have lost control of their slave contracts, and will re-sign the contract after Miles returns to complete it.
As for Listia and Listina, the first batch of combat maids trained by the Bond family, they have already been brainwashed and have the privilege not to wear slave bracelets.
After the slave contract was terminated, Listia took the initiative to take on the task of escorting her, without even bringing her own sister Listina with her for fear of getting in the way.
"...Master, I'm here!"
Lisitia licked her lips, and the image of that damn guy Marlene showing off in front of her flashed through her mind. She recalled the scene where she came upon hearing the news but missed it, and said to herself: "Master, you can run away this time." It won’t fall!”
Miles, who was far away at the border of the empire, shuddered.
"Ah!"
After the kidnapping incident, Miles returned to Kresse and was pushed to the position of acting lord by the unscrupulous old Bond after a day of rest. Miles was reviewing tedious documents in the office when he suddenly got a sneeze.
The little maid who brought a cup of black tea and put it on the table said with concern: "Master, are you okay? Do you have a cold? Do you need any medicine?"
It was easy to tell from the shy voice that Elsa's soul was controlling her body.
The spirit of the Elf Queen fell into a deep sleep and became weaker and weaker, looking like it would dissipate at any time, so that the task of repairing the magic system of the Elf Courtyard was delayed.
"fine!"
Miles waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, picked up the black tea and took a sip, but felt that his right eyelid kept twitching.
As the old saying goes: A twitch from the left eye brings wealth, and a twitch from the right eye brings disaster.
But after inheriting the protection of the Blood Ancestor, his life is tougher than anyone else's. Miles really doesn't know what dangers he may be in.
Just don't think about it.
Miles pulled the little maid, and her cold little hand was grabbed by Miles and she fell into his arms.
After all, this is no ordinary maid.
Have you ever seen an elf maid? Have you ever seen an elf with the blood of the elf king? Have you ever seen a princess from the elf clan? Have you ever seen a maid who can even be called a queen?
Various bonuses have greatly increased the value of the little maid.
Sometimes what people value is not the value of a thing itself, but the uniqueness and freshness given to it.
Miles, on the other hand, developed a strange possessive desire due to the various identities of the little maid.
"Hey... don't... young master..."
The little maid moaned all her life and was too shy to raise her head in Miles's arms. She seemed to have forgotten what it meant to resist and was as obedient as a kitten.
Miles is very satisfied with the results of his training.
"Ah~~!"
Opening his vampire fangs, Miles bit the swan's snow-white neck without hesitation. The smell of blood made him unable to help but reveal his vampire appearance.
"~Thanks for the treat!"
Miles was cautious and retracted his fangs to prevent the blood bag from becoming disposable.
"don't want……"
Elsa unknowingly wrapped her arms around Miles' neck, making a strange sound.
It wasn't until the poisoning effect of the vampire's saliva subsided that Elsa skillfully touched her neck and used magic to heal the wound, which was so skillful that it made people feel distressed.
"No? You don't want anything. You obviously love it, so why are you lying to yourself?"
Miles said without answering, contentedly resting his chin on the girl's shoulder, using it as a stand, and held the hand warmer to charge with his nowhere hand.
Mom no longer has to worry about getting cold.
And every part of the little maid's body was exploited by Miles and put out of use.
People are pillows.
It can also be used as a stand when used.
It can also be used as a blood pack when you are hungry.
If your hands get cold, there are hand warmers, one for each hand, and you can switch hands.
A true tool maid.
"Woo!"
The little maid seemed to have remembered something, and buried her head lower. Her face was so red that it was bleeding, and she muttered something like "I'm really full and can't eat anymore."
Perhaps the spirit of the Elf Queen can persist for a while longer, as it is probably about to be dispersed by someone.
Speaking of which.
"Elven Queen, don't you think about the proposal I gave you anymore? Don't you want to stay with Elsa for a while longer?"
Miles said while reviewing the paperwork and holding the hand warmer.
The moment the words were spoken, Elsa's shy expression disappeared instantly, her eyes changed, and she showed a habitual look towards Miles's impolite behavior.
Elsa's body is officially taken over by the spirit of the Elf Queen.
"No need. If you persecute others in order to extend their lives, what is the difference between this and the evil demons?"
The elf queen's fierce rejection sounded, but even so, an unspeakable feeling of weakness could be heard, and her voice seemed to be a little hoarse.
"What's the problem? Don't kill all the demons with one stick. Humans still have good guys and bad guys. The elves still distinguish between fallen dark elves."
Miles said leisurely: "Isn't it just to let you take over a human body and warm up the soul first, so that it won't dissipate so soon?"
"Whose fault is it that it disappeared so quickly?"
The Elf Queen who wanted to say this rolled her eyes and could not agree with Miles's point of view: "Even if you want to kill a death row prisoner and let me occupy his body, wouldn't the death row prisoner's body be my body? By inheriting the sins committed by that death row prisoner, my soul will also be tainted."
"It is even more unacceptable for me to exchange the lives of innocent people for the continuation of my soul."
"Tsk!" Miles smacked his tongue. He was very displeased with the fake noble elf queen, and his hand warmer changed shape due to his displeasure.
"Uh-huh!"
The Elf Queen shouted and stopped talking.
That's right.
Miles has no idea of letting the Elf Queen ascend to heaven so early. After all, the magic system operating in the Elf Courtyard has not yet been repaired, and her knowledge and insights have not yet been exhausted.
You want to die before your value is squeezed out. Have you ever asked him about Miles Bond...
…It really makes capitalists cry when they see it.
"At least you must not disappear before the gift I have prepared for you arrives, otherwise I will be sad..."
Miles looked regretful and melancholy, while Yazi, who seemed not to be distracted at all, said something to the Elf Queen, and added in his heart, "...sad to lose a precious humanoid library. "
"..."
After listening to Miles' words, the Elf Queen said that she had a gift for her. She didn't know whether it was true or not for a while and had mixed emotions.
The Elf King never gave her a gift.
She stared intently at Miles' side face. The sharp outline of his face was as sharp as a knife, which made people fascinated, especially those enchanting red eyes, which made people fall in love with him.
Miles seems to have given the Elf Queen the illusion that "this person is very emotional" and can't let go of her.
The daughter is silly and sweet, and the mother is in love.
It's weird enough that the two of them are still living in the same body at this time.
Myers said: "This smells great!"
Miles had picked out several documents and placed them on his right hand side.
After hearing a few knocks on the door, Hruf walked in.
And Hruf got rid of the elf queen, whose mood was swinging like a roller coaster, went offline to sleep, and returned her body to Elsa.
"I'm going to do my business first, Master!"
Seeing someone coming in, Elsa said something, and immediately got out of Miles' arms shyly, lowered her head and ran away.
"It seems that the training was not very successful."
Miles did not stop the little maid who escaped, and muttered angrily.
Miles then handed the selected document on his right hand to Hruf and ordered: "The officials involved in this account can handle it."
Miles stood up and moved around a bit. He looked out the floor-to-ceiling window. He could still see the figure of the little maid running away in a hurry. He shook his head and raised the corners of his mouth. His temperament instantly became cold. He sneered: "These people are really serious." When my Bond family is stupid and has too much money...hehe...the pigs have to be fattened before they are killed!"
"...I know, Master!"
Hruf took the document in his hand and glanced at it. It was all about the financial expenditures of Kresse City, and many of them were circled.
Looking at the circled financial list, Hruf, who had been an assistant officer for these years, thought about it for a while before he realized the problem. The income and expenditure did not match up with the income at all.
And these people are very smart and only manipulate the large material funds sent by Bond's family in the royal city, stealing a very small part, and the probability of being discovered is extremely low.
Even so, Miles had already listed the amount of losses one by one when he looked at the situation.
If Hruf had actually looked down upon the so-called heir to the Bond family before, as an assistant officer he felt that he had to teach him painstakingly.
Only if the young master is willing to learn.
That now.
Kresse is equivalent to a small country. Under the control of Miles, this chariot called the country moves forward slowly, seemingly at a fast pace.
Hruf not only recognized Miles' ability to handle things, but also felt a sincere respect for Miles' current status as the ancestor of blood.
In Hruf's view, Miles already possesses the basic abilities of a king.
Others don't know it, but Hruf, who is always by Wallace's side, knows the inside story of the Bond family and understands how much Wallace values his grandson.
It seems that after the Bond family usurps the throne, the future heir of the Bond family will be directly put on the throne.
You said there is a current head of the family who is the heir?
Ah.
Wallace said that his good-for-nothing son Dex could just abdicate and become the old king and just have his own fun.
My grandson Miles looks like a king.
.........
Hruf accepted the list given by Miles, believing that what followed was a general purge.
"Master, here is something you need to visit..."
Without leaving, Hruf collected a document and gave Miles another document, saying: "...This records the repairs of the Elf Courtyard buildings, the reclamation of wasteland by personnel, a summary of the results, etc. .”
"It's just that our magicians can't give very good repair advice on the magic system of the Elf Courtyard. Well, it's better to say that the magic system of the Elf Courtyard is too advanced. Without understanding the internal composition, we can only tear down and rebuild, but it may not be possible. Make a better magic system.”
"There is no need to worry about the magic system of the Elf Courtyard. Even if it is repaired, it is just a decoration at the moment. How is the construction and reclamation going?"
Miles put down the document in his hand, leaned on the chair, crossed his elegant legs, waved his hands casually, and became concerned about the construction of the Elf Courtyard.
Rather than looking at the documents, wouldn't it be more convenient to ask directly.
"Manpower and materials are constantly being transported to the Elf Courtyard. Magical backpacks are very efficient in transporting materials. However, the damaged area of the Elf Courtyard is huge. Currently, only 60 to 70% of the Elf Palace has been repaired. Basically, it is the same as the reconstruction. No different."
Hruf is now in charge of the restoration work of the Elf Courtyard, and his answer is simple and clear. He then thought about it and said: "In terms of reclamation, people are constantly sent into the Elf Courtyard to cut down trees and bulldoze the land around the Elf Sacred Tree. .”
"The original plan was to build a city centered on the sacred tree. However, the loggers encountered obstacles and attacks from two bears while cutting down the trees. There were also problems such as obstruction by squirrels, gophers digging holes, and owls disturbing the forest at night. The progress has been repeatedly delayed.”
"Wait a minute, why do these animals sound so familiar together?"
Miles' expression became wonderful.
After listening to Hruf's report, Miles looked dissatisfied with the progress of the construction and frowned more and more.
In the final analysis, it is all due to lack of manpower.
For the sake of his own grand palace and resort, Miles changed his mind and targeted the rebels hidden in the Bond family. Not all of them were free labor.
While Miles was still planning the Bond family's fortune, he heard Hruf say: "And young master, an advance knight has come to report that Knight Commander Listia, who is escorting the items you want, is already on the way. , will arrive in Kresse City from time to time, well, it is expected to arrive tonight."
"who!?"
Miles, who was still careless, put down his legs and almost fell over due to the swaying chair, so he asked again loudly.
Hruf repeated: "It's Knight Commander Listia."
"Why does it have to be her!"
It can be said that the main reason Miles ran away was to avoid Listia, the second maid after Marlene, because she was afraid of being pinched to death by those abdominal muscles.
and many more.
After inheriting the protection of the Blood Ancestor, his energy is infinite. Does he need to be afraid of that woman now?
of course not!
Isn't Listia just throwing herself into a trap? It's not clear who is the wolf and who is the tiger.
