Chapter 89 Grace's Request

Feeling the short dagger inserted into the boot, the roll of linen wrapped around the dagger, which had been soaked in blood for many years, Lock seemed to see his sister Lea smiling in front of him and looking at the naughty brother.

Knowing that everything was fine at home, Locke felt much more relaxed. The communication with Henry and Bruce was also quite harmonious. During this period, Locke seemed to casually reveal his promotion to a low-level attendant, which ushered in a lot of compliments and praise from the two.

Locke also learned from the two that almost all the caravans sent by the Baron were recalled. Locke, who knew the general situation in the camp, was not difficult to guess that Baron Kaidozi, who had regained his strength and achievements, had given up his previous plan to focus on economic development and was preparing to gain a lot of benefits in the last battle with Charlotte.

After saying goodbye to Henry, Locke temporarily canceled his plan to find Xia Xi. Because he learned from Henry that Grace, Raffie and Christine were also here. Locke planned to find them first. Although Locke's relationship with these three women has always been lukewarm, they still helped Xia Xi through the difficulties when Locke died.

Walking to a carriage position in the transportation team, Locke saw the three girls of Grace from afar. Lafite, the maid, dressed in an inappropriate leather armor, scolded a man with disheveled face and dressed in Charlotte costumes next to the carriage. Christine sat in the carriage, shaking her legs, and watching the strange scenes around her.

As for Grace, who had always coveted beauty, she stood by the carriage very ladylike, standing there quietly. The setting sun, the bright sunshine, the graceful noble lady, and the colorful clouds formed an exquisite picture. Locke did not even dare to break this beautiful painting.

Just as Rock was watching Grace in the sunset, Christine, who was idle and watching around, first discovered Rock not far away, and was delighted, jumped out of the carriage and ran towards Rock.

Christine ran to the nearest place and jumped directly into Locke's arms. Because of the successive twists and turns and the hardship of boats, the little girl was much thinner than the girls of the same age. After being promoted to a low-level attendant, Locke, who was much stronger, easily picked up Kristen.

Even seeing the little girl running over so excitedly, Locke threw Christine into the sky a few times. Kristen was lifted to the sky by Locke without any fear, but kept smiling "giggling".

"Do you miss your brother?" Rock has always treated Christine as his sister. In Francis City, Rock had asked the little girl to call him his brother.

"I thought about it!" Christine did not have the shyness and implicit personality of a little girl, but instead answered Locke carelessly.

Locke and Christine's laughter attracted the attention of Grace and Raffi. This is Foster's joint military camp, and many powerful people are so Laffi did not notice Locke's arrival.

Seeing Rock arrived, Rafy stopped scolding the man who kept nodding and bowing, while Grace looked at Rock calmly.

"What's going on?" Rock asked Raffi. He didn't dare to look at Grace until now, because this woman's mature and calm eyes were so hard that Locke couldn't adapt to it. In front of Grace, Rocke could only use his strength and muscles to suppress this woman, just like forcibly taking them away in Francis City.

"This guy ordered the wrong goods to be shipped!" Rafi pointed to the man next to him.

Looking at the man's dirty clothes and a thick local accent in the remote area of ​​Charlotte, it was not difficult for Locke to guess that this should be the group of Charlotte refugees that Xia Xi conquered. Xia Xi gathered a large number of refugees from Giza and took them to trade with Baron Kaidozi's caravan, which made Henry, the shrewd merchant, amazed.

"Stop it up, Henry will give me this face!" Rock said to Rafi. It was not that he felt sorry for the disheveled leader of the Charlotte refugee, but that Rock didn't want to waste time on these trivial matters.

Rafi didn't expect Locke to say this, and was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement. Grace seemed to have a deep look at Locke.

The leader of the Sharlo refugee who could not even raise his head scolded by Rafi looked at Locke gratefully. He was a refugee who fled from the southeastern border of Charlo. Because of the forced tax collection and the shadow of war in the territory, the autumn harvest did not harvest enough food and had to leave their hometowns and choose to escape.

When she fled to Giza, Xia Qian was just in time to recruit people to work as a coolie. Although she only had a full meal, this group of Sharlo refugees who had nothing but a bad life had no choice. This disheveled middle-aged man was given certain management authority by Xia Qian because of his honest and honest work.

It was also his unlucky. He had previously calculated good wheat in Giza Town, but when transported to the United Military Camp, he actually lost a little. Some of the unethical guys secretly hid some of them. In the past, this kind of hidden act of hiding his own privately, whether it was Xia Xi or Henry, the merchants such as the past turned a blind eye.

Because a little bit of food is really not worth much money, but this time it is different. The countless Forstan soldiers guarding outside this huge military camp scared these Sharlots so much that their legs were weak. The middle-aged man was really afraid that Rafi would hand him over to the Forstan because of his mistake.

Although Fostertan was the party invading Sharlot, the people of the Sharlot who had been defeated were more afraid of the Fharlot soldiers than hated them.

Of course, Rafi would not hand over the middle-aged man to the soldiers of Fostein. As a member of the Charlottes, Rafi would have been extremely dissatisfied with helping the caravans of Fostein's army. If Grace had not forced Rafi to help Xia Xi, Rafi would not have been concerned about so much.

In fact, Rafi had no good feelings for the Fosterites except Locke. Especially the businessman Henry, the vampire, who planned to use the reward of a one-and-a-half piece of chewy cake to make the Sharlot refugees work hard. If Xia Xi hadn't stood up to object at the right time, Henry would have changed his mind and replaced it with a piece of black bread. Rafi could not guarantee that he would not be able to resist chopping over the Fosterites.

After sending the Sharrow refugee away, Locke calmed down and took a few good looks at Grace and the girls. Christine hadn’t seen him for almost two months, and her figure had not changed much, but she had lost a lot of weight. Locke planned to find Corey, the chef of the logistics department, to make up for Christine.

Lafite has a heroic and cool look. She was wearing strange leather armor. Although she did not hold a long sword, she just stood there and had a good temperament. She did not give Lafite weapons because she was a Charlotte after all, and the merchant Henry didn't want such an unstable factor in her caravan.

As for Grace, she was still wearing the robe that Locke had first seen her. Her wide hood covered Grace's hair and face, but she couldn't cover the noble temperament that was emitting from her body.

Speaking of temperament, among the women Locke has seen, only Angelina can surpass her, but Angelina has a little more youthfulness, while Grace is full of maturity and intelligence. Locke, who has always claimed to be a rough man, is very uncomfortable.

"Are you okay?" Locke asked casually when he saw that he couldn't find the topic.

Lafite didn't say anything. She had always had a low presence among the three girls. Locke also learned from her daily conversation that she was like a maid. Kristen was hanging her hands on Locke's neck at this time, and she had a lot of fun.

Grace took over Locke's words: "It's not bad."

"Where is Aunt Xia Xi?" Christine, who was hanging on Rock at this time, suddenly asked. She had a very good relationship with Xia Xi in the past or two months.

Because he lacked the care of his father and mother since childhood, Christine had always been very close to her aunt Grace. Later, she met Xia Xi. Xia Xi, a mature woman, liked little Christine tightly, and even hugged Christine and kissed her to fall asleep at night. Xia Xi gave Christine a maternal love that was different from her aunt Grace's care.

"Aunt Xia Qian is on the other side, let's go! I'll take you to find her!" Locke maintained the girl's state of hanging on her body, and led the three of them to the place where Xia Qian lived.

Halfway through the way, when there were fewer people, Grace grabbed Rock.

"What's the matter?" Locke has always been curious about this mysterious and rational woman.

After thinking for a long time, Grace finally raised her head, looked at Locke, and said, "I hope you can find a way to take me into Audis City."

At this time, whether it was Christine hanging on her shoulders or Lafite following her, they looked at Locke in a hurry. It seemed that the three of them had thought about it in advance.

Locke was surprised by Grace's request. Without thinking too much, Locke rejected Grace. "Let's not talk about whether I have the ability, why should I do this?" Locke asked Grace.

Locke has always felt a sense of being intimate with Grace. In addition to the little girl Christine and Locke, Rafi and Grace have only a handful of things they have said to Locke since they met in Francis City. Locke would not take such a big risk just because of their little busy helping Xia Xi.

"I can promise to be your woman!" Grace said in a shocking way. Even Rafi and Christine were surprised. It seemed that they had never discussed this condition.

"If you don't agree, you will become my woman!" Locke said arrogantly. No matter what Grace was once, she couldn't escape if she was in Locke's hands.

"Then all you can get is my body." Grace sneered, as if she would rather break the jade than make the whole thing.

"Don't you always want me?" Grace pressed step by step, looking at Locke with a burning look. "As long as you promise me, I will be your woman willingly."

Locke was a little dizzy by this sudden incident, but he was still awake, and it was impossible for him to agree to this request.

"I don't have the ability to do this, it's useless for you to look for me!" Locke left a sentence directly, put down Christine on his body, and strode away.

Audis City is now in as much as you want? Just a whole military camp, the Forstan army with more than 70,000 people will be siege Audis City. Unless Locke turns into a mouse and drills a hole in the ground, you can't even think of any other way.

Locke estimated that as long as he dared to bring people to the gate of Audis, he would be shot into a sieve by the rain of arrows from Foster's army behind him. Not to mention that Locke had saved the princess, even if he had saved the king, he believed that Prince Kensel would order arrows to be shot without hesitation. Prince Kensel gave Locke the same feeling as when he was an ordinary soldier. Locke admired such people very much.
