MTL - My Summons Are Weird-Chapter 26 Waiting for the fool to come to the door
The beloved thing became scarred. After listening to Lu Yu's words, the emotional Andrew first panicked, and then showed a confused look.
Killing a noble is no small accusation.
In many places in this era, if the aristocrats killed ordinary people, if the laws were looser, they would not even be held responsible, and they would simply have to compensate.
The ordinary royal family also issued a declaration of guilt in their own territory, neither too lightly nor too seriously.
This declaration is not for the people below, but to tell the royal family that I have no opinion on the laws formulated by the royal family, and will make no mistakes while ensuring the interests of everyone.
Immediately afterwards, a small compensation for blaspheming the law was offered to the royal family, and everyone was very happy.
If they killed slaves, they would not be held accountable.
After the transaction is completed, the slave is a personal item, and it depends on the owner's mood whether to live or die.
But if the target of your attack is a knight who is out of the ordinary class, a noble with a title, even the smallest, the least status, and the unpopular noble, you will get into big trouble.
Under the circumstance that the situation is less than life-and-death, attacking and killing with a clear card is to destroy the rules that everyone has made together.
Andrew is very aware of the seriousness of the problem, but the problem is... Although his demon-breaking puppet can move, it is only active, and her movements are completely uncontrollable.
After one activation, the Demon Puppet slapped him in a series of slaps, smashing his face.
After modifying the magic circle and successfully nesting, the action of the demon-breaking puppet becomes very chaotic.
It's normal for him to shake like a twitch, fall to the ground with a thud, and twist his body like a fish.
Lu Yu said that her movements were coherent and agile, and a set of military boxing almost seriously injured Lu Yu...
Andrew really couldn't imagine that kind of picture.
Seeing Andrew's disbelief, Lu Yu motioned for him to come into the house with him.
A torch was given to Andrew by Lu Yu.
"Take care, this is the trace left by my battle with her."
At the entrance, a large number of white scratches appeared under the firelight.
On the wall behind the door, a dent created by several impacts is clearly visible.
Andrew reached out and touched it, the gravel and the ash rustled down.
Lu Yu didn't know that he would come late at night. Naturally, there was no possibility of temporarily creating such a scene to deceive him.
Although Andrew was a little strange about how the slender octopus-like tentacles were made in the depressions on the wall, he didn't have the time to think about it.
Your own puppet really moved, planning to kill?
The one who killed was the tenant of his own house, a noble who traveled around.
Immediately afterwards, Andrew thought of something that he had been ignoring since just now.
This demon-breaking puppet that I found in the Goblin dungeon has been tested by myself. Under normal operation, it is no problem to deal with third-order magicians.
The traces of such a fierce battle at the scene are enough to prove that the demon-breaking puppet was in a strange "normal operation" state at that time.
Can deal with the broken demon doll, and beat it into such a tragic appearance...
Andrew secretly glanced at Lu Yu and said with a feigned fear.
"Fortunately, Your Excellency's force is amazing and your martial skills are exquisite. If you were a magician, worse things would happen today."
"I'm a magician." Lu Yu glanced at Andrew.
Andrew shuddered, his face was calm, but his scalp was numb.
It can smash a normal working demon puppet, and it's still a magician... Tier 3?
No, the third-tier magicians are not enough. The distorting effect of the magic puppet on the magic will invalidate a lot of magic.
But...is there such a young fourth-order magician?
How old is he?
In your early twenties?
It doesn't look like a subhuman either.
Andrew is still young and has no experience in dealing with such things.
As the conjectures popped up in his mind, his unease became stronger and stronger.
He himself wanted to ask his father to stop "selling" him temporarily when he came back from the East.
Young, second-tier magician, good military exploits, and popular among the knights of the royal family. When these attributes converged on Andrew, they attracted a lot of people who were concerned about his marriage.
In the past, he argued that the family should not push him forward too early, so that he would have time to study magic and learn how to make dolls.
However, puppet masters are just "strange tricks" to most people here.
They hoped that Andrew would have greater achievements in the study of magic, master more power, and lead the family to climb up.
Soon, Yas III will have a big move in the East. If Andrew performs well then, as the direct line of the royal family, it will be just around the corner for them to soar.
"When you become a fourth-order magician, a big man in the Kingdom of Yas, you can study your puppets any way you want."
Father's promise is more like a joke. At that time, will I really have time to study, and will I really be able to unload my burden?
He made military exploits in the Eastern Territory, and was praised by the old lords, just to make his father make concessions when he returned home.
Andrew can imagine his father's anger when an accident happened to the demon-breaking doll he used to study.
I'm just afraid that you don't want to touch this aspect again.
"It is indeed my responsibility that such a thing happened, and I will compensate you for the loss you have suffered, but not now."
Seeing Lu Yu's dissatisfaction, Andrew quickly said, "It's getting late, I'll give you an explanation tomorrow."
Andrew took off his saber and put it on the ground.
"This is the pledge."
Lu Yu didn't expect Andrew to enter the compensation mode so smoothly after he understood the whole story. Is it because of his personality?
Lu Yu picked up his sword, waved his hand, and said impatiently, "I'm waiting for your response, I hope you don't think about finding someone to silence you when you go home."
Andrew, who was originally very humble, frowned, and the grinning smile on his face instantly solidified.
"Is this questioning the credibility of the Turner family? I implore Your Excellency to retract this statement."
Lu Yu looked back at Andrew without smiling.
"You may have forgotten that there is such a possibility that you planned to use the doll to murder the tenant, but you never wanted to meet me."
"I fought back hard and subdued the doll. You were afraid that things would be revealed, so you hurried to me to get the evidence back."
"you!"
"What are you, you, I just subdued the doll, and you came on horseback on your hind legs. It happened to be like this. It's hard for people to believe that this is a coincidence."
Andrew wanted to say something, but it was hard to say.
In terms of time, it is indeed too coincidental.
As soon as he returned to Wangcheng, his puppet attacked Lu Yu. Even if it was a notarization by a third party, the Turner family was suspicious.
Previously, there were many rumors about this house because of the death of two magicians. Those grotesque words once made several mansions of the Turner family unable to rent.
If this attack was exposed, even if the Turner family hadn't done it, the people would happily start making unreasonable associations.
The enemies of the Turner family will definitely use these things to ridicule and disgust the people in the family.
"Andrew, for the sake of being a nobleman, it's easy for me to let you take the evidence. If you really want to take care of what I say..."
Lu Yu patted him on the shoulder: "Then let's duel. If you win, I'll shut up."
Andrew raised his head and stared into Lu Yu's eyes. After a while, he looked away.
From his expression to his eyes, Lu Yu revealed strong confidence.
Thinking back to the fact that the Demon Puppet was beaten up against him, and he was even a magician...
It's hard to win.
Andrew gave Lu Yu a salute, put the cloth bag he carried with him next to the sword, and actively motioned to leave the doll to Lu Yu for safekeeping, and only took away the driving crystal core.
Lu Yu agreed to his request and threw the cracked nuclei to him.
"Your Excellency Lu Yu, tomorrow at noon, I will definitely return for a visit."
After speaking, he took the horse and left without looking back.
After confirming that Andrew was really gone, Lulutis quickly appeared, dragged the doll back to the house, closed the door, and locked it.
Following Lu Yu to the quiet kitchen, he lit the lamp, untied the cloth bag, and a small half bag of metal coins fell on the wooden table, making a pleasant sound.
Lulutis lit the torch, and under the light, the two happily counted the money.
"Lu Yu~www.novelbuddy.com~ I don't understand you a little bit. You are so cowardly, why are you acting so boldly this time?"
Several times just now, Lulutis felt that Lu Yu was about to break the conversation, but in the end he managed to stabilize.
Stabilization is not the most powerful. He controlled the rhythm of the conversation and firmly suppressed Andrew's momentum.
It was clear that Lu Yu was a new magician who was just starting out, but Andrew was terrified.
Lu Yu smiled and picked up a silver coin and placed it under the torch to observe.
Hearing Lulutis' words, Lu Yu asked back.
"Otherwise, what should I do?"
"If I'm obedient and cowardly, how can I let him pass on the news of my existence?"
"If I'm just a coward, will he keep his sword and purse? Will he look at me? Will he be afraid of me?"
"Even if you have the name of a noble, you can only stand and talk to them. Only your strength can honor your respect."
"Therefore, different scenarios require different responses."
Lulutis asked: "This shouldn't be the 'someone sent money' you planned, right?"
"Of course not, the show isn't over yet." Lu Yu said, "I originally planned to let Sigrid spread the news about my lack of money, but Andrew showed me a shortcut."
Lu Yu blew out the fire extinguisher and prepared to go upstairs to rest. When passing the puppet, he crouched down again, flipped the puppet around, and asked Lulutis to check again.
After confirming that it was correct, Lu Yu yawned.
"Go to bed early. It is estimated that not only Andrew will be here tomorrow."
"Come on some bad guys, so I don't have any psychological burden to cheat... Andrew, this young man is too stupid, I'm sorry to lie to him."
