Chapter 54 The Official and Bandit Family

Roger had already had experience fighting warriors in a hotel. He immediately applied a swift technique to himself, ran around the bar, and put a few wind blades into the field from time to time, which made the mercenaries fighting with Baresci and Piat in the field worried. When he started, he was forced to pay attention to him. Although they were crowded, their strength was not too strong, and they could not get Baresci and Piat for a while.

The mercenary who was chasing Roger closely saw that it was impossible to quickly take Roger down, so he immediately turned his attack target to Nia. However, Nia had no experience in fighting with the warriors, and was soon caught and unable to move her arms. She was unable to cast magic smoothly under the mercenary's continuous melee attacks. After the water shield technique was broken, she was quickly caught and unable to move her arm.

At this time, the leading fat man was furious to see that the people on his side could not catch Roger. He was about to lift his sword and go on his own. But a large group of city guard soldiers rushed in from outside the bar. With their shouts, they quickly calmed down the scene and separated the people on both sides of the fight.

"Diselly, why are you fighting with others again? Is it uncomfortable if you don't cause trouble all day long?" A tall middle-aged man wearing the uniform of a city guard officer, holding a long sword and asked the fat man with a serious expression.

Finally, the city guards arrived, and Roger and others were relieved. If they continued to fight, they would only suffer a loss. After all, the other party had several times more people than them, and they were all melee professions like warriors. In places like narrow spaces like bars, there was a great advantage.

But they immediately became nervous again. The fat man named Deselly came to the city guard officer and said with a charming smile: "Master Sunderland, this fight was completely initiated by those outsiders. They were actually a gang of thieves, dressed as mercenaries, and asked the woman to seduce my brother Ostantine, trying to take the opportunity to steal his wallet. After my brother saw through it, they were angry and knocked my brother out of wine bottle. When we saw this situation, they held two magicians and fought against more than a dozen of us. We fought back because of helplessness."

When Baresi and others heard this, they were furious. Niya was even more angry and retorted loudly: "Master! These people are completely inverted black and white! It was obviously his younger brother's attempt... to..." After all, she was just a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, and she was a little embarrassed to say the word "tease".

"Oh? Deselly! It seems that the situation is not what you said!" Sunderland's eyes turned after hearing this, but his tone had become a little gentle.

"Hey, Master Commander! You think I, Deselli, is also a well-known figure in the mercenary world of Elams City. How could it be that the members of the group would do something to tease women?" Deselli said, shaking the fat on his face. He didn't realize there was a loophole in his words. Before Nia could tell the teasing, he confessed himself.

Deselli used his body to catch others' sight and quietly stuffed a small bag of coins into Sunderland's pocket. Although his movement was very hidden and most people did not notice it, Roger, who was on the side, happened to see it. He suddenly screamed in secret. It seemed that Deselli was a local snake in Elams City, and he had dealt with Sunderland for many times. The two must have been familiar with each other.

Sure enough, Sunderland's expression slowed down, and he said with a smile, "Actually, Deselly, I don't believe you will do this... People! All these thieves from other places were taken down by me, put them in prison, and handed them over to the judicial officer to slowly interrogate to see if they have any other accomplices..."

"What?" Baresi and others were shocked and angry after hearing this. They knew very well what the consequences would be if they entered the prison of the City Guards. When they came out, they would even lose their skin even if they did not die.

At this time, Deselli looked at Nia, whose face was flushed due to the shock and anger, and suddenly felt that the girl was very cute. She was also a magician. Although she had been to many women, she seemed to have never been to a female magician in so many years.

Thinking of this, Deselly immediately said to Sunderland: "Master Sunderland, my brother's wallet was lost. Maybe it was stolen by the female thief. Can you hand this female thief to me for a good search? I want to find out where the wallet is."

Sunderland looked at Nya, then looked at Deselly, and immediately understood what Deselly wanted to do. He immediately pretended to be embarrassed and said in a deep voice: "This... Deselly, this is so embarrassing to me! You know, the thief was caught and not imprisoned, but handed it to the victim... This is not up to the law!"

Deselly was stunned for a moment, then showed a painful expression, and whispered to Sunderland: "Tomorrow night, I will send 20 gold coins to you to the mansion." Although his voice was light, he could hear it clearly with the mental power of Roger's fourth-level magician.

Sunderland immediately stretched his brows and laughed: "Oh, our city guards are not the kind of person who is rigid. Since your brother's wallet is lost, I will hand over this female thief to you for searching. But I said it was the first: It's only three days. After searching, no matter whether you find the wallet, you have to send the female thief back to the City Guard prison, otherwise you will know the consequences!"

Deselly smiled quickly and said with a gratitude expression: "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely send the female thief unscathed."

Sunderland nodded, turned around and shouted to the city guard soldiers behind him: "You take all these thieves from other places to prison! I will hand them over to the judicial officer tomorrow."

"You... you are really colluding with officials and bandits!" Baresi and others couldn't help but curse. Niya even showed a humiliating expression on her face. She looked at the fat man who was approaching her step by step, but her hands were firmly grasped by the other two mercenaries and could not break free.

"What should I do? It seems that this matter is unsuccessful." Roger looked at the two city guard soldiers rushing towards him, and was very anxious.

"Forget it! I can only try that thing! Let's take a gamble!" Roger finally made up his mind.

"Sunderland! Stop it!" Roger said loudly at this time.

Immediately, a soldier from the city guard shouted sternly: "You little mercenary, dare you call us your name directly."

"Sunderland! Do you recognize this thing?" Roger took out a blue token with the two-headed eagle logo engraved by Baissus' national emblem. This token was given to him the day before he set out from Empet.

"Hey! How could you have this token?" Sunderland's expression suddenly changed.

"Captain Sunderland, can you speak with a step?" Roger said in a deep voice.

After pondering for a while, Sunderland said to the bar owner: "Open a private room for me and no one is allowed to come in!"
