Chapter 30 What? The Villain Complained First

In the castellan mansion of the inner city.

Castellan sat on the top seat with a gloomy face, while Roger stood aside with a serious face.

Below them was Brander, whose face was black and blue.

"You said that you first saw a demonic beast golden bird in the city, so you brought people to capture it. Then when you chased to the periphery of Egleson, you were attacked by a large golden bird, weren't you?"

Castellan asked word by word.

Brander seemed to have found his savior and said with a sad face, "Father, I'm sure I didn't make trouble first this time. I'm doing it for the safety of everyone in the city. You know, it's a demonic beast, a wild and difficult training demonic beast. What if someone is hurt? So, I tried my best to capture it..."

"Enough!"

Castellan was annoyed by Brander's crying.

As for what he said, he only believed 30%. That was to say, Will believed everything he did, but Will didn't believe his purpose of doing it.

Will knew his son very well.

If the golden bird was the demonic beast in the castellan mansion, he could suppress it even if there was something wrong. But now, it was obviously related to the young man he valued, Allen.

Moreover, he had just promised to the urban residents that the demonic beast would never appear again, but he has been slapped in the face afterward. Now he felt that there was something wrong with the way everyone looked at him

Hearing that his father was a little angry, Brander quickly stopped talking. He had been used to it since he was a child.

His little tricks couldn't deceive Will at all, and Brander was clear why Will didn't blame him.

He stopped at the sight of this.

As soon as Allen finished dealing with the injury of the little golden bird, castellan Will sent someone to call him.

"It seems that the little golden bird can't stay here any longer," Allen sighed.

At this time, a big hand fell on his shoulder. It was Francis, who came back with him.

"Don't worry. Castellan is not that mean."

Francis tried to comfort him.

"I'm not afraid that castellan will make things difficult for me, but I'm afraid that someone will sneak around."

Allen sighed.

People like castellan were profit-oriented. Without absolute benefits, he would not easily break up with anyone.

But he didn't know what kind of bargaining chip Brander had

When Allen walked into the hall, his face darkened.

Brander, who was standing aside, cast a resentful and complacent look at him. Obviously, he was a narrow-minded man.

Allen's heart sank.

The hall was filled with people he was familiar with, except Kenan. After all, Kenan had helped him send the corpse of Malcolm back.

But now, Allen was not sure about Will's attitude. Brander's words might have an impact on castellan, but it still depended on Will's will.

"The golden bird in your yard has escaped," Will didn't question Allen but told him the truth.

He wanted to see Allen's reaction.

Although the castellan mansion didn't provide much direct help to Allen these days, he was very privileged in all kinds of privileges.

Will also wanted to test whether Allen was grateful to him.

"It's my fault that I haven't thought it over and caused trouble to castellan. If there is any loss, I'm willing to bear it all." Allen said sincerely.

"Bear it? You are just a civilian. How can you bear it?"

Brander said in a voice dripping with sarcasm.

"Shut up!" The smile that had just appeared on Will's face was forcefully dispelled by this sentence.

Brander looked up at Allen and said, "Did you hear that? I told you to shut up and get out of here,"

"Clap!"

Castellan Will thumped the armrest of the seat hard, and his chest heaved quickly several times. Then he tried his best to speak in a steady voice, "Brander, get out of here right now."

Brander looked back in astonishment and found the anger on Will's face. Then he stopped talking.

He didn't dare to piss Will off. If he left his father, he would be nobody.

What's more, he had done a lot of terrible things these years. Maybe he would be killed as soon as he left the city.

But he didn't want to go out in such a disgraceful way. In this way, he not only couldn't see the fun of Allen but also made a fool of himself.

Will ignored him when seeing him standing here.

"Allen, I didn't mean to do that, but as you can see, the residents in the city don't like the demonic beast very much..."

Castellan Will showed his expertise again to play the love card.

"Master castellan, I see. I'm willing to guard the periphery of Egleson as the first barrier of the city."

Allen said seriously.

All of a sudden, everyone in the hall was moved.

It was known that Egleson was the largest demonic beast forest nearby. There were all kinds of fierce demonic beasts in it. One could imagine the danger of guarding outside.

While everyone was shocked, Brander's little eyes turned quickly and his face was full of excitement.

Then, a disharmonious voice sounded in the hall.

"Obviously, you want to evade your responsibility. What if you let a demonic beast in?"

Brander cut in again.

Francis and the others looked at him with contempt.

If it weren't for castellan Will sitting here, they would have scolded the man in front of castellan.

"As long as I am alive, there won't be a demonic beast in the city."

Allen said in a serious tone.

"It sounds better than singing. What if a demonic beast comes in? Do you have any way to compensate everyone? Do you want to die to apologize?

Brander insisted.

What's wrong with my brother Allen? Why do you say such a word?" Francis couldn't stand it anymore and questioned angrily.

Being intimidated by the imposing manner of Francis, he instantly shrank his head.

"It's all his fault. If it's not his fault, will it be all our fault?"

Brander stepped back and shouted.

Francis was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"It doesn't matter, Francis. I have your help."

Allen stopped Francis with a smile.

He didn't want Francis to lose the favor of castellan because of him.

Although for Earth Knight like him, the reward given by castellan was not important. It was still very generous.

"If you have made up your mind, then let it be." castellan Will wanted Allen to make a promise. Since Allen was sincere, he would let it go.

Castellan stood up and left first. The others also walked out one after another. Brander also looked complacent.

"Allen, why did you give in?" Francis looked at Allen and asked in confusion.

"If we live in the castellan mansion, we will inevitably be involved in such obscene things. Is there any benefit for our training in fact?"

Allen asked with a smile.

"So..."

Allen's words rendered Francis speechless.

"All right, Francis, please help me move things. After all, it will take me a lot of time to move there alone."

"I finally understand you, boy. You are not asked me to carry things. You asked me to be your slave."

Francis put down a thick log and smiled.

There was no house around the edge of Egleson. Allen had to find a way by himself.

Therefore, the two of them built a small wooden house by themselves. Because the two of them were both knights with infinite strength, it was very easy to do such a thing.

Everything was over in one day.

After a simple dressing up, Allen moved in that day.

Although the cabin was a little shabby, Allen felt it much quieter than in the castellan mansion.

In the past few days, the little golden bird had also found this place. It often took the big golden bird to eat and drink in Allen's house.

Unfortunately, the golden bird might still take Allen's sword seriously and refuse to get close to Allen.

Besides.

Every day, more or fewer adventurers would enter Egleson, wanting to challenge demonic beasts.

Many of them were not strong enough and wanted to take a fluke. They could do nothing but add one or two minutes of blood to the battle.

As a member of the same clan, Allen didn't have the heart to see their bodies exposed in the wilderness. He could collect their bodies and find some skills.
