When night falls, noisy night markets also begin in several places in the outer districts of Trikla City.

Different from the more casual night market streets in Dakaron, the night market in Trikla City is very regularly divided into specific areas, and these areas themselves are public markets. For this reason, the so-called

The night market is nothing more than an all-night version of the market.

However, compared to the busy market during the day, the market at night seems very casual and relaxed. Everyone, whether they are businessmen, workers, or even ordinary people, have begun to relax.

Their faces are filled with relaxation and happiness, and they use various ways of recreation to relieve the stress and burden caused by the busy day. How many busy shops are there?

Almost all of them are closed, and the small vendors, pubs and restaurants that provide meals to city residents have entered the busiest time of the day, because no matter where you go, the most popular entertainment in the evening is usually

Enjoying all kinds of delicious food and drinking all kinds of mellow wines are almost the same habits for both commoners and nobles.

However, not everyone is immersed in the joyful atmosphere at this time. For example, in the tavern with a golden elf female sculpture standing at the door, Kohler, who was just released from the lion cage not long ago,...

Then Master Sasse drank the wine with a sad face.

After he was taken away during the day today, the Lions told him what kind of disaster he had caused. For this reason, Koler did not go home as soon as he came out for safety reasons. After all, he probably guessed what happened.

A doting father will definitely favor the Duke's position on this matter, so Kohler wisely believes that going home at this time is almost to die.

Of course, it is precisely because of the doting on him by his father, Earl of Nassus, that Kohler also boldly believes that as long as the limelight is over, his father will not care too much about it. After all, Kohler also learned from his friends today.

After inquiring about the information about those guests, and at the same time judging from the attitude of the Duke, it seems that the matter can be passed through. For this, all Kohler needs is time.

However, today's incident still dealt a huge blow to Kohler. After all, not only did he lose face in public, but he also tried to offend a group of big shots with strong backgrounds. Of course, Kohler is very confident that as long as this incident is over,

Afterwards, the principality will definitely try its best to downplay the impact. After all, from a political point of view, this kind of incident that affects diplomatic exchanges is actually very harmful to both parties.

This is not a good thing, especially now that Kohler believes that Algas traveled thousands of miles to contact the Principality of Michael with a certain purpose. For this reason, the diplomatic initiative this time should be in the hands of the Principality, as long as Mihaier

If Grand Duke Haier continues to maintain a tough attitude towards this matter, then he can at most settle the matter by paying a painless price.

Kohler can only think so about the matter in Algasburg, because the focus of the trouble that made him so sad today is not the power of Algasburg. In the end, no matter how powerful Algasburg is, it is just a

Human organization, but among the big shots that Kohler provoked today, in addition to Algarsburg, there are two other existences that Kohler thinks are more troublesome. The elves, a group of aliens, and they are also very dangerous guys from the north.

.

The issue on the elves' side is a bit complicated for Kohler, but if it is a small tribe like Meryl Gil, that's it. After all, in the eyes of Kela, those elves "natives" are not worth mentioning at all, and they themselves have been in the past.

It has been strongly suppressed by the "principal side" for a long time, so in all aspects, the principality side should be stronger, but the problem is that the group of people during the day is not just the natives of Meryl Gil.

Isheka Patrol Hunter Corps, this name sounds a bit strange, but Kohler does not dare to look down upon it. After all, an organization that can be named "Legion" has never been a small player, let alone this one is from the north of Isheka.

The people on Heka's side are organized. Although the Principality of Michael is separated from Isheka by a vast borderless land.

, but in fact, privately, the nobles of the principality are still very awe and yearning for the superpower in the north. Various rumors and interesting things about Ishka are long-lasting topics in the noble social circles, and are even sold on the black market.

The "goods" from Ishka are also the most sought-after items among these noble young people.

Of course, Kohler is also one of these people, and last year he also paid a high price to buy a decorative artifact called the "Ishka Noble Sword" from the black market. For this reason, Kohler often bought it for a period of time.

The wearer of this "Elven Noble Sword" participated in various banquets, and even used decorations with the "same origin" in some banquets.

Competing luxury. In fact, no one cares about the authenticity of these northern goods. After all, no one has really seen what the so-called genuine goods of Ishka look like. But for these buyers, these goods must be genuine.

It must be genuine, or at least it must be genuine within the principality and in the banquet venue of the nobles.

The longing and longing for the great elf country among the noble children of the principality is nothing new, and everyone has a more or less subtle understanding of the information on Isheka, at least for Kohler.

When he heard the term "roving hunter army", he knew how big the opponent's background was without the need for anyone to remind him.

This is the border legion of Isheka. If compared to the concept of humans, it would be a border lord similar to a "frontier official". Of course, the Isheka itself has a real status as a border lord.

The title of a border lord is called "Great Lord", but that position is a status title belonging to the border nobles, and the legion general can compete with the lord.

The leader of an army who is equal to them all, his deterrence ability is not comparable to that of the great lord. Even privately speaking, this kind of powerful figure from the northern elves is also an idol that Kohler yearns for and envies, although Kohler has never really understood it.

He has passed through the so-called Ishka Border Legion, but this does not prevent him from having various fantasies about this kind of character.

Kohler took a deep breath, then looked up at the table full of delicacies in front of him with no interest. In desperation, he had to pour himself a glass of gin mixed with crushed ice and drank it in one sip, and then felt the effect of the alcohol on him.

Use the stimulation of your own mouth and throat to clear your mind.

When he came out of the Lion Regiment, he had thought about preparing a generous gift to go to some Ishka general to apologize, but then he thought that even if the guards of the palace let him in, that person

The Elf General may not be willing to receive him. After all, in his opinion, his behavior during the day may not necessarily be the one that really offends Algasburg.

Maybe the female magician was angry because she disturbed her guests. Anyway, Kohler subconsciously believed that the status of Algasburg was not as good as Ischka, so they must have used some means to grovel.

He might have found such a "big man" to help his own power and the principality's diplomatic activities.

However, Kohler was also told that there was actually another group of stickmen called the "Chosen Ones" in that special team, but these inexplicable people were assumed by Kohler to be insignificant followers.

.Because the aristocratic groups on the human side are composed of various

There are always some religious figures trusted by the nobles in the mission who act as various advisors. For this reason, Kohler does not regard the chosen ones as the same thing. Even in his eyes, these people are

They are equivalent to the two business consultants around him.

After the alcohol stimulation in his throat subsided, Kohler's mind calmed down a little. Even under the stimulation of the cold and hot liquor, Kohler had a little appetite, so he threw down the gold-inlaid wine glass.

He just reached out and grabbed a plump and crispy roasted leg of lamb.

He started to eat with big mouthfuls. Today, he directly booked an entire private room at the Mercy Felice Restaurant. For this reason, he was the only one here, so he didn’t have to worry about any long-winded dining etiquette.

Want to relieve yourself from stress through unrestrained indulgence.

Just when Kohler was venting his anger and seemed to be feasting, there was suddenly a knock on the door of the private room. Kohler was suddenly stunned, then quickly picked up a napkin and wiped his palms and mouth covered with various oil stains and food residues, and then made a statement.

The deputy asked the person who knocked on the door to come in with an emotional tone.

After the guard outside opened the door, High Priest Ketan walked in with a subtle smile on his face. Kohler was not surprised at all by his arrival, although he did not invite anyone to his "dinner party" tonight.

", but this "confidant" priest friend should also know about his fooling around here.

"Hey... overeating is not good for your health, Master Kohler." Ke Tan simply bowed to Kohler and then walked to the guest seat and said, "I don't know if I am qualified to accompany you."

How about enjoying this delicious feast with Master Kohler? You know, I just came out of Archbishop Rosen's mansion this afternoon and went straight to the church to get busy, and I haven't even drank a glass of water until now."

Kohler didn't mind Curtan's behavior at all, and even happily picked up the wooden barrel filled with crushed ice and the gold jug, walked over to him and filled him with a large glass of wine.

"Try this, it comes from 'Old Wilson' craft beer. This pot costs 10 gold coins. It is a treasure." Kohler then picked up the ice bucket and directly scooped a large spoonful of crushed ice into the wine glass.

, a large amount of expensive wine directly overflowed from the wine glass and spilled onto the table.

After seeing this, Ke Tan suddenly stopped smiling, then lowered his head and leaned on the wine glass to sip the overflowing wine. He also took the initiative to hold Kohler's wrist to ask him to stop filling the ice cubes.

Kohler laughed heartily again after seeing his funny look, but he did not have any dissatisfaction with Ketan. Instead, he obediently put down the ice bucket and wine bottle, walked aside, and picked up a new bottle again.

The golden wine jug and ice bucket walked back to their seats.

"What a waste... but the taste is really pure... Well, Old Wilson's brand is indeed well-deserved." Ketan excitedly picked up the wine glass and drank it happily, and then carefully picked up the wine bottle and gave it to himself

I poured a glass and put a few ice cubes in it.

"You are just too frugal. How wasteful can you be with just a little wine?" Kohler joked disapprovingly: "You should learn from Archbishop Rosen or Bishop Taylor. They will drink at least one meal.

Several jugs of wine like this..."

"Hehe... I can't compare with them. After all, we pursue different moral principles and have different origins." Ketan drank another glass of wine and burped happily, then grabbed a piece of bone-in barbecue and

Said: "Oh, by the way, I don't think Bishop Taylor can continue to be so luxurious in the future."

"Huh? What's wrong?" Kohler suddenly became interested and asked: "It's rare that these big shots ask you to attend their religious gathering for the first time. Did anything interesting happen at this gathering?"

"Of course." Ketan quickly finished a piece of barbecue and then reluctantly licked the remaining minced meat on the bone stick clean before saying: "Do you know? The reason why they asked me to attend their rally today is to

Let me be the scapegoat..."

"Oh?! Please tell me more." Kohler put down the wine glass and held the table and waited patiently.

"It's like this... Archbishop Rosen plans to send people to test the people in Algasburg. It is probably that this old guy is afraid of the mysterious forces behind Algasburg, so he wants to challenge their authority."

Ketan picked up a piece of barbecue again, and then said mockingly while smelling the tempting aroma: "At first they planned to let me be the scapegoat, but I did not express my position, and the tombkeeper and the

The old shaman didn't fall for the trick either, but the gravekeeper was just planning to stay out of the matter. However, the old shaman's poisonous snake wanted to make things bigger and watch the fun. For this reason, the noble Bishop Taylor suffered from the other party.

Stimulated, he took this matter in a fit of anger... Hehehe... In short, no matter how big of a problem it might cause, he was finished anyway, and maybe the entire Norman Church would be affected by this.

"

After hearing this, Kohler immediately stopped smiling. Then he sat back in his seat with a sullen face. Then he picked it up unhappily and it was shaken in front of him.

"Algasburg...do they have a good background?" Kohler asked with a gloomy expression: "Don't you think they are just a remote group of magicians?"

"Master Kohler, who told you this ridiculous argument?" Ke Tan also noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere, so he quickly said: "Anyway, no matter who it is, the person who dares to say this to you definitely has bad intentions. Please

Remember, Argasburg can be said to be the oldest force in the human race so far. In terms of magic alone, it can definitely be called the strongest organization among humans. At the same time, behind them

There is also a more mysterious and ancient belief hidden..."

"Cross-" there was a sound, and the wine glass in Kohler's hand suddenly fell to the ground.

"Master Kohler?" Ketan stood up in a hurry and wanted to go over, but Kohler raised his hand to stop him.

"It's okay... I was a little distracted just now..." Kohler kicked away the wine glass at his feet in a panic, then picked up the napkin and wiped the spilled wine on his hands. However, Kohler still couldn't hide his panic well.

After hesitating for a while, he told Ketan what happened this afternoon. At the same time, he did not make any excuses for his ridiculous behavior. After all, Ketan was one of the few people he trusted around him.

people.

Ketan was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He had no idea that he would actually cause such a thing after he separated from Kohler at the manor at noon today. However, he was also glad that the conflict between Kohler and the other party was just a misunderstanding.
