Online game: Confession of love to a noble daughter at the beginning

Tick-tock, tick-tock.

In the dim stone room, the flickering candles kept flashing.

On the wall, a slender black shadow appeared slender under the weak light of the candles.

Following the light of the fire, a man, tied with iron chains, stood on a wooden stake.

He wore a brown sack on his head and his body was covered with bloody wounds.

Suddenly, the sack was untied, taken off, and thrown aside.

When the man opened his eyes, there was a little light mixed in the darkness, which made him feel a little uncomfortable for a moment.

When his eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, he widened his eyes.

As he moved his body, the sound of steel colliding with each other came into his ears, and his limbs were completely locked.

Looking up, he saw a dense crowd of mysterious people surrounding him.

She was wearing a black linen cloak, and her face was half covered, leaving only a pair of eyes staring at him

"You! Do you know who I am!"

The people around did not speak, but a voice came from the side.

"Then do you know who I am?"

Liya sat on a leather chair, one leg resting on the other.

She held a sharp carving knife, and seemed to be bored, polishing her nails carefully.

The man looked carefully, and when he saw Liya's beautiful face, he stopped where he was.

Liya Cravenner.

The Cravenner family is now very famous in the entire capital, and its popularity is not inferior to that of the royal family.

Moreover, in the city of Braxton, the Cravenner family can be said to be all-powerful.

Even a stray dog ​​passing by the roadside had to wag its tail and bark twice when it saw Victor.

What, you said stray dogs can't talk?

Pull it down and stew it!

At this moment, he had never thought of it.

He was just eating and singing in the most luxurious restaurant in Brighton.

But his eyes went dark, and he was kidnapped by the people of the Cravener family?

The man's body couldn't stop shaking, his lips trembled constantly, and his whole body was completely soaked in cold sweat.

"Miss Leah... what are you doing...?"

"Why, you have never seen kidnapping?"

Leah picked up the carving knife and turned it in her hand, and stood up.

Along with her movements, the mysterious people wearing cloaks around her also followed Leah and surrounded her.

The man's body shook suddenly, and a trace of fear seeped out of his eyes.

Leah picked up the carving knife, pressed it against the man's throat, and lifted his chin up.

There was a hint of smile in her charming eyes, and there was a bit of curiosity in her tone.

"Didn't you just ask us if we knew who you were?"

"I'm quite interested now, tell me."

The man's brain suddenly fell into a blank, and he forgot to tremble.

Saliva stuck in her throat, and she didn't even dare to swallow it.

Lyon whispered beside Leah:

"Miss, his name is Hannah."

"He is the carrier of the Reiser family transporting goods between the north and south of the empire."

Liya raised her eyebrows after listening to the report.

"Hey, the Reiser family?"

"You know what grudge your family has with us, and you still dare to come to our place?"

A few drops of cold sweat flowed down Hannah's forehead, and he let the sweat flow down his nose, not daring to move.

"Miss Leah, I... I'm just lost..."

"Lost?"

Liya threw the carving knife in her hand and flew towards Hannah, stabbing it fiercely into the wooden board behind him.

He could even feel the collision sound of the carving knife hitting the wooden board and the sound of breaking wind.

Hannah's panting became heavier, and the extremely fast carving knife was only a fraction of a second away from cutting his neck.

Leah looked at him with a smile and said softly:

"Klevenna is so big, how could you get lost and end up at my doorstep?"

Hannah closed his eyes tremblingly, not daring to say another word.

Leah reached out to the side, and Leon beside her understood and handed her an alarm clock.

She wound up the clock in her hand and put it next to the man's ear.

Ding!

A crisp sound suddenly burst out.

The ticking sound that followed it continued to sound, like the death knell of the god of death.

"Where is the goods hidden? Tell me."

"If you can't tell me before the alarm rings, your head will be moved."

The moment the alarm clock ticked, Hannah was frightened and howled.

His facial features were twisted together, and his expression was painful, as if he would cry out in the next second.

"Cry?"

As the voice sounded, a man in a cloak stepped forward and slapped the man hard on the face.

Bang!

Accompanied by a crisp slap, the miserable howl that was about to turn into a cry came to an abrupt end.

Liya touched the alarm clock and smiled.Said:

"Crying also counts as time."

Ring, ring, ring——!

The alarm clock suddenly vibrated, and the sound of metal echoed continuously in the small and dim basement.

Around, the sound of several cold lights coming out of the sheath rang out.

Hannah widened his eyes, looked at the silver dagger flashing under the candle, and nodded frantically:

"I know, I'll tell you! I'll tell you!"

"That batch of goods, hidden...hidden in the port of Sano!"

Liya smiled, picked up the alarm clock, wound it up again, and turned the hands again.

Hannah was stunned, looking at Liya, with a puzzled look:

"Miss Liya, what are you doing..."

"I'll give you another round of time."

Liya squinted and smiled:

"This is the only hiding place? I don't believe it."

Hannah pulled the skin and forced a smile, and tears came out of his eyes.

"Really... there's really only this one, there's really only this one!"

Liya just smiled, took out a bottle of red potion from her pocket, and kept shaking it in front of the merchant.

"Do you know what this is?"

Hannah looked at the red potion in front of her, a little dazed.

The magic potion sold by the Cravenner family is almost famous throughout the north and south of the empire.

A bottle of potion is sold for one thousand geoms, but it is unknown how many times it has been hyped up on the black market.

It's hard to find money.

The red potion in front of her, with the same packaging, made Hannah puzzled.

"My new product, two thousand geoms a bottle."

"Do you want to try it?"

Looking at Liya's half-smile, he slowly had a bad premonition in his heart.

Ring, ring, ring——!

The alarm clock rang again.

Liya's smile seemed even more joyful.

"Leon."

The elf behind him took a step forward and drew out the dagger.

"Bloodlet."

In the dim room, a cold light flashed across the man's neck.

Accompanied by a slight feeling of pain.

Blood gushed out suddenly.

At this moment, Hannah widened his eyes.

Feeling a sense of weakness enveloping his body, accompanied by warmth, twitching suddenly from his body.

He silently looked at the smile of the woman in front of him.

I only felt that charming smile.

Like a devil.

.......

The bright moonlight, through the fine mist-like clouds, sprinkled on the cold blue sea.

At the port, dozens of cloaked people stood in the open space, waiting quietly.

This place is the stockpiling point forced out by Hannah.

Many guards are patrolling here and guarding the goods.

Soon, those cloaked people took action.

They moved very quickly, like cheetahs hunting, quietly killing the patrolling guards.

They dragged the bodies of these people into the darkness and threw them into the turbulent sea.

The night was their best protection.

They gathered together again until the guards around them were almost cleared.

The goods placed on the square, like huge boxes, were tightly covered by blue cloth.

Only through the unobstructed gap under the cloth could you see the steel cage-like material underneath.

They stayed quietly around, and could still hear the breathing coming from inside.

They nodded to each other.

One of them put his hand on the conductive crystal next to his ear, passing on the message.

The dark clouds were slowly blown by the wind, and the moonlight sprinkled on the huge iron cage.

All the secret guards have completely controlled this place, and the surrounding guards have been completely cleared.

Under the bright night sky, there are only dozens of mysterious people wearing cloaks and hoods in the port.

Liya walked out of the shadows slowly, and behind her, followed by Leon, who was dressed the same as the others.

When everyone saw Liya, they bowed their heads and showed great respect.

"Miss Liya."

"This is the last hiding spot."

Liya stood around the large cages, looking around.

"Okay, let me see."

Upon hearing the order, they quickly jumped onto the platform and suddenly opened the huge curtain, revealing the "goods" inside.

In the iron cages, there were some living "people".

They had soft ears like cats and dogs, and different characteristics.

They curled up in the iron cages to keep each other warm.

The furry tails stood up, and the long pointed animal ears kept shaking as if they were distinguishing the dangers around them.

As if they felt the glimmer of light that they could see the sun again, they raised their heads.

Seeing the crowd watching them, there was obvious fear and panic in their eyes.

Liya looked at them and sighed:

“Poor"Children."

Demi-humans.

They are similar to humans, but they are not humans.

They look almost the same as humans, but they have very distinctive animal features.

Demi-humans are not common in the empire.

The empire has a very strict racial division, and humans are supreme.

Therefore, sub-humans are not allowed to enter the empire.

And if there are sub-humans in the empire, they will either be expelled.

Or, they will be disposed of at will by the captors.

That's right, sub-humans are not regarded as humans at all.

In the eyes of most people, they are just pets with thoughts and actions.

There is no slavery in the Karencia Empire.

As long as you are a human, even if you are a beggar, you cannot become someone else's private property by selling yourself.

When Of course, it was only on the surface.

The nobles could ignore this rule.

As long as they were not too arrogant and did it in front of the emperor.

There would always be someone who would ‘give them a break’.

So, what if some people wanted some free labor that they could dispose of at will?

Just buy some ‘subhuman slaves’.

It costs money to hire a human being, and even taxes have to be paid.

As for the subhumans, they are stronger and have better endurance than humans.

As long as they are given food and water, they will continue to squeeze themselves for survival.

As long as they are not starving to death, they will work themselves to death.

Thinking of this, perhaps because she felt a little pity for these subhumans, Liya sighed.

“Now, you can be free. "

After the words fell, Leon, who was beside her, drew a wooden sword from his waist.

The wooden sword flashed with a faint green color.

The rich magic power continued to surge on it.

With the magic power, Leon held the wooden sword and slashed the iron cage twice.

The huge iron cage fence was cut open with a hole that was enough for escape.

The cross section was still flashing with green light.

But the subhumans hiding in the iron cage did not move.

They were just more afraid and curled up in the depths of the iron cage.

Seeing this, Leah rushed to those wearing hoods. The secret guards glanced at them.

They understood and lifted their hoods, revealing animal ears of different colors and shapes.

Pointed, drooping, cat ears, dog ears, and even pointed rabbit ears.

This shows that.

They are the same kind.

Sure enough, after seeing this scene, the subhumans in the iron cage relaxed their vigilance slightly.

The ears that stood up because of the danger also slowly drooped down.

Liya looked at these subhumans who finally dared to stand up and smiled slightly.

"Now, are you willing to believe me?"

"Well, I do believe it. "

Suddenly, an abrupt voice sounded, and everyone looked up and looked at the source of the voice.

At some point, a man sat on the huge iron cage.

He was carrying a very luxurious sword on his back, which looked very extraordinary.

The man looked down at the people below, grinning and smiling slightly.

But the strong sense of oppression was always pressing on everyone's head.

Lion felt the danger coming and flashed in front of Leah.

The man stared at Leah with a smile:

"I said, why are the goods shipped to Brighton always robbed?"

"It turned out to be the famous Clevenna family, raising a group of sub-humans as secret guards."

A burst of sneers followed.

"It really broadened my horizons."
