Chapter 152:Negotiation (Part 2)

The sound of rain outside the window has basically stopped, and the clouds are dyed red by the sun that is about to set.

Roland pushed open the door of the room on the first floor, and Marguerite was walking around in front of the fireplace, a look of a little uneasiness.After Sean saw the prince, the guard guard on the side, raised her hand to leave, and she quickly stepped forward and asked urgently, “Your Highness, how is the lightning?”

Roland faltered, he conceived the other's reactions, from calm to anger to indifference, but did not expect her first words to be this.

"She's okay...she's just tired."

"Is it?"That's fine."She looked relieved.

"You seem to care about her."

"She looks very much like her father, especially her narrow eyes and pointed nose... I can see that she is the daughter of the thunder."

After saying this, she sighed, unbuttoned the neckline button, bowed her head, and took off a string of gold ornaments hanging around her neck, "What you said before... means to judge by the power of witches?"If so, can I add her to this dialogue, if that proves my sincerity?I don't like the feeling of being watched in secret."

The hanging ornament consists of a string of gold chains and a huge light blue gemstone, which is cut into a hexahedron jewel, which should be the stone of high-quality divine punishment.

Roland was thinking about how to open his mouth to reduce the other's disgust and doubts, and she did not expect to take the initiative to do so.To tell the truth, he has some admire the fjord woman, although she has fallen into a very unfavorable situation, she is still trying to grasp the initiative of dialogue.Whether it is a negotiation skill or a style of action, she is in line with the identity of a successful businessman.

He took the stone of divine punishment handed by the other party, and hung on the fireplace hanger on the god penalty stone of this quality was estimated to be about one meter of the forbidden range, which was comparable to a huge black hole in the eyes of the nightinge.Perhaps in order to avoid the effect of the stone, she has been far away.

“Let’s go talk in the living room,” Roland said.Since the other party has shown sincerity, they should not be too stingy.When the two of them walked into the living room, the nightingale had already been sitting on the edge of the main position, holding his hands on his chin, deliberately posing for a long time, and her thoughts seemed to be the same as her own, and the prince thought.

After sitting down, he was the first to introduce: "This woman is called the Nightingale, she can judge the truth of what you say."

"Hello, Miss Nightingale."Marguerite nodded to her, and the latter saluted her.

"You said before, you have no malice against witches, why?"Roland asked the first question, which he most wanted to know, “As far as I know, there is also a church power in the fjord.”

But its influence is far less than that of the Three Gods, or that most fjords have a similar faith to the Sand people, worshipping the sky, the sea, and the earth.As for me...” She paused, “I had a very good partner.On a trip to the sea, we encountered a storm and the sailboat was interrupted by huge waves.She became a witch in this disaster, and could breathe like a fish.She found me unconscious and dragged me ashore."

“What about later?”The Nightingale is curious.

“When I woke up, she left... perhaps she was more eager to be in the sea than with me,” said Marguerite sadly, “and I never saw her again.”People in the village often say that she will appear when the sea rises fog, singing to guide the fishing boat to avoid the reef.In any case, my partner cannot be an evil, nor a minion of the devil.”

Roland nodded, witches are all awakened by ordinary people, and if they had deep contact or understanding with them before they awakened, the impression formed was difficult to be changed by the one-sided rhetoric of the church.

“Do you seem to know a witch’s ability?”In a single sentence, I guess that there may be more than one witch in my case."

"Honestly, because of my childhood relationship, I was interested in witches, and I wanted to take in these strange women."Marguerite smiled, "Unfortunately, the king is no better than the border town, and finally gave up because the risk is too great."The act of lightning seems very close to you, and she is a witch... so I think you, like me, do not hate witches.As a lord, it is not difficult to hide several witches, especially here.But you have to be careful, and if it's discovered by the church, it's hard to keep them."

At this point, the Nightingale still did not find any signs of lying, and basically rejected the possibility of her telling the church.Roland finally put his heart to heart, and said a little apologetically: "It seems that I really care, I hope you don't pay attention to it."

"No, your Highness's act is also for the sake of lightning and ... the safety of this woman," said Margley, "it would be irresponsible if you were indifferent."

“Do you know the Thunder?”Roland asked, "Your love for lightning is more than the ordinary people's care for the children of heroes."

Faced with this question, Marguery hesitated for a moment.Roland said that if she did not want to answer, she could not ask, but she finally slowly said: "I tell you, after I left the fishing village, I have joined the expedition team of Master Thunder, and he has experienced a long exploration journey together."As a novice in the team, Lord Thunder and his wife took special care of me, and I was present on the day the lightning was born.”

“Was she born on a boat?”

“Yes, in a storm.The thunder and lightning outside the cabin did not stop, and shortly after her birth, the wife of Lord Thunder died of sepsis, and I... acted as half her mother.Without breast milk, I would mix porridge and cichlid powder with cheesy wheat porridge and feed her little by little.”Margley's voice became very gentle, "Although Master Thunder is very sad, but he still wants to command the fleet forward if there is no master heart, and the voyage for several months can easily make the crew collapse."And I stayed in the cabin and watched the lightning grow.It was not until the Lord Thunder discovered the Shadow Islands and successfully returned to the Gulf of Dragons that the expedition ended.Then I left the fjord and settled in the castles of the Greys.”

“That is so.”Roland exclaimed in her heart that it was no wonder that her reaction would be so strong when she heard the Thunder’s name.As for why the other party did not continue to follow the Thunder expedition, he can also roughly guess one or two.With the beginning of a love story, it is not possible to win the end of the love story.

This is really a coincidence of the peak turn... since this relationship, is it possible to get a greater discount when you start buying and selling?He coughed twice, “Ms. Margley, so that we can also be acquaintances, that deal.”

"Your Highness, that can't be done," laughed Marguerite, "and the trade is a transaction, and that is the eternal principle of the merchant."(Not yet completed.If you like this work, you are welcome to start the campaign, and your support is my biggest motivation.Mobile phone users please read.)
