Become a martial girl

Chapter 428 The Regent's Daughter

"How about it?"

It's a pity that such a wonderful performance is completely out of Edward's eyes at the moment.He quickly looked around and asked Mengdie softly.

"...No. Just passing by, I didn't remember their appearance. There are so many people here, it's very difficult to find them... Right!"

Mengdie suddenly raised her head!Because she thought of it, if it was really an assassination, then the assassination target must have a very noble status!If not, why would a whole assassination team come in?Judging from the size of these dozen or so people, they should have guessed that the target of the assassination was also under heavy protection.In this case... the target is undoubtedly those high-ranking officials and aristocrats in the theater who are surrounded by heavy guards!
After thinking about it, I found the end of the thread in an instant.Mengdie's eyes quickly swept across the audience like radar.Searching for anyone who appears to be of high standing.However, before she finished scanning the entire theater, an accident forced her to stop.

"Get out of the way!"

Edward, who was behind Mengdie, was pushed away with a hand on his shoulder.Then, that hand immediately put on Mengdie's shoulder and swung it to the side.Mengdie noticed that there was no murderous intent in this hand, but after pushing herself very rudely, she took a few steps to the side and moved away.

"Alan! My dear Alan! Where did you go? It was hard for me to find, and I was so worried, do you know?"

An octave-high female voice came from behind, and the next moment, a slightly fat woman about sixteen or seventeen years old walked out from the crowd of soldiers.Although her appearance can't be said to be ugly, she definitely can't be said to be good-looking.The deliberately made-up face was full of aristocratic pride.

Is it an illusion?When this woman ran past Mengdie, she seemed to give Mengdie a hard look...

That is hostility.Moreover, it was the kind of hostility that wished to disappear immediately.

"Alan, my good Alan, you didn't see it just now, the scene of the duel between the two magicians was really exciting! We brought you to watch the show, why did you just disappear without a word? Worried I'm dead~~~"

After the woman finished speaking, she immediately pretended to be cautious and frightened, stretched out her hand and patted her chest coquettishly.

The moment he saw this woman, Allen suddenly showed an expression of extreme disgust.But this expression only lasted for less than a tenth of a second, and a smile immediately filled his face.Seeing that woman being dizzy, he immediately stretched out his hand, grabbed the hand that was bigger and fatter than his, and comforted her softly.

"What are you worried about? I just met friends and chatted for a while."

"friend?"

The woman's gaze immediately aimed at Mengdie, looking at her from top to bottom.That look made Mengdie feel really uncomfortable.

The woman's gaze also caught Edward's eyes. He moved quietly, slowly stood in front of Mengdie, and looked down at the woman.Maybe it's because the sword on Edward's back is ridiculously big, maybe it's because his eyes have become extremely sharp after countless times of experience.The woman withdrew her eyes unconsciously, and pestered Alan again to make a fuss.However, whether it was intentional or not, the dozen or so guards around the woman slowly surrounded Mengdie and Edward at this moment.Several of them even clenched the swords on their waists, confronting the white wolf nervously.

Edward: "(whispering) What's the situation? No, maybe it should be said, did we get into some trouble again in a daze?"

Mengdie: "(whispers) Hehe, it's a good way to practice. After all, I'm a combat school, not a practice school."

Allen also saw the situation at this moment. He still had a smile on his face. He lifted the chin of the woman who was taller than him with his hand, tiptoed, kissed her gently on the cheek, and said with a smile: "It's just ordinary friends. However, I was indeed wrong. I shouldn't have left you, my sweetheart, to meet other women secretly. Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Edward Zorn. This This one is Mrs. Mengdie Zorn. They used to be the children of their father’s friends. They came to this country and they didn’t know each other well. They happened to meet each other and we chatted.”

Maybe it's useless for Allen to say more, but that sentence, Mrs. Mengdie Zorn, made most of the hostility towards Mengdie disappear from the woman's eyes.The guards surrounding the two also dispersed one after another, and the two who were looking at the white wolf also breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly lowered their hands holding the hilt of their swords.

The woman nodded, walked up to Edward, stretched out her left hand to Edward, and said, "So it's my father's nephew, I was really rude just now. Creed Lola is my father. I'm Lola The youngest daughter of the family, Maggie Laura. It's really a pleasure to meet you."

Edward turned his head and looked at Mengdie.Mengdie was also looking at him at the moment.They had just heard the name Creed Rolla half an hour ago, and he was one of the two regents of this country.And the person in front of him is the daughter of the regent king...

"Ah, nice to meet you. Nice to meet you. . . . ma'am."

Edward bent down, took Marge's hand in a knightly salute, and kissed lightly on the back of his hand.Originally, according to etiquette, he should have said "beautiful lady" at the end of the speech.However, due to the appearance of the other party, Edward, who was used to seeing Mengdie, found it a bit dazzling, and he was surrounded just now, and he still had hostility in his heart, so he couldn't say that false compliment.

After Edward finished saluting, Mengdie also prepared to go forward to salute.Unexpectedly, Maggie suddenly withdrew her hand and hugged Alan's arm very enthusiastically.Although there was no hatred for Mengdie in her eyes, the hostility unique to women still made her eyes full of vigilance.

"Alan, the next game is about to start. How about we go back to the rostrum? There are the best seats, drinks and food. I can peel grapes for you, want to eat?"

Allen kissed Maggie's face again, with a slightly distorted smile on his face: "Yes, of course. Let's go back and enjoy this time."

Markie obviously didn't notice the slight twists, and immediately opened her mouth and laughed.Allen simply turned his head away, and smiled at Mengdie and the two: "Sorry, I can't accompany you. Please take your time to visit."

After finishing speaking, surrounded by many guards, Alan and Maggie left with their hands clasped together, and what was shown in front of everyone was a picture of a loving couple having a tryst.

"Mengdie, what's the matter with this child?" Edward asked only after everyone had gone away.

"I don't know. His fickleness makes people unpredictable. I don't even know which one is the real him. ...White Wolf, can you smell the scent of those assassins?"

The white wolf nodded, lowered his neck and began to search.After a while, it began to move slowly, walking forward on the aisle.

The performance in the theater is still going on, and the gorgeous water splashes emerge in colorful colors under the sunlight.The white wolf was walking towards the direction of the rostrum, but the closer he got, the more he was disturbed by the roar of water in his ears.The cheers of the crowd were also constantly impacting Mengdie's hearing, interfering with the search.

"Sniff... woo."

The footsteps of the white wolf stopped.It sat on the ground calmly, and from the corner of its red eyes, it aimed at a dignified person leaning on the railing above the stands.Mengdie and Edward pretended to talk and laughed, leaning back and forth while laughing, and saw the person's appearance clearly through the gap between the head swings.I saw that his eyes did not stay on the stage for a moment, but looked at the rostrum.A pair of sharp eyes showed a little murderous intent.

There, Alan sat.

Under the protection of numerous guards, he watched the stage silently, without smiling or expression, his eyes were dull...

The man moved.

He put his hands in his trouser pockets and began to walk slowly towards the stands directly behind Allen's position.Seeing this, Mengdie immediately patted Edward and White Wolf on the shoulders.

"Both of you, go to Alan now and ask to stay by his side!"

"Huh? But, shouldn't we..."

Edward pointed at the man who was walking slowly, with a sleepy look on his face.But Mengdie didn't let him finish, and immediately interrupted: "There is only one person now! So, they must have other assassination plans! The white wolf is too big, if it walks around here, it will attract ideas sooner or later You can protect him at any time by standing by Alan's side. Also, I want you to do such a thing as soon as you get to Alan's side..."

Mengdie stood on tiptoe and leaned close to Edward and whispered.After hearing this, Edward's expression brightened immediately. After giving Mengdie a thumbs up, he smiled and said, "Great idea! But, you have to be careful yourself."

Farewell to Mengdie, Edward and White Wolf immediately quickened their pace and came outside the VIP viewing area where Alan was.

"Hold on, sir. You can't go in here."

As expected, the guard really stopped him.Edward immediately uttered the words of Dream Butterfly Cult: "Alan! Where is Alan? I want to see him, I have important things to do! The white wolf is here, too!"

Edward's yelling immediately attracted the attention of the people around him.Allen, who was in the crowd, was surprised when he saw Edward and the white wolf, but he still ordered the guards to let them in.

"Important thing? What is it? By the way, Meng... Where's your wife?"

Maggie was sitting next to her, and Allen couldn't directly call Mengdie's name, but replaced it with other titles.

Now Edward had no time to be happy about Mrs.He lowered his head and said with a smile in a voice that Maggie could hear: "She, she went to the toilet. Actually...it's not a big deal for us to come here. It's just...just want to watch the performance at a better location. Excuse me... can we sit next to you?"
