Chapter 200 A Night Walk with Louise (5)
After being kicked away by Alfred again, Ben regained some composure. He realized that he could not defeat Alfred at all, so he reached for the magic ball in his arms again, intending to summon the magic doll to deal with Alfred.
But he was interrupted by the sound of someone clapping.
"Although the night market does not interfere with the behavior of guests, please stop. After all, you two have seriously hindered the enjoyment of other guests."
A tall, middle-aged gentleman in a tuxedo clapped his hands lightly and said.
"Tsk, Xi Nan, please stop getting in my way."
Ben glanced at the gentleman and clicked his tongue in displeasure.
"Ah, no, that won't do. I have been ordered by Lord Duke of Leopold to handle all matters on the night street. Even though you are the second son of the Antoinette family, I cannot follow your orders."
Although Heenan was respectful, he did not take Ben seriously.
"Tsk! Then you just deal with it properly. This bastard actually dared to attack me and destroyed our puppet?! You can't just leave him alone, right?"
Ben pointed at Alfred and yelled.
Following the direction of his finger, Heenan looked at Alfred.
Although there was a flash of surprise on his face for a moment, he quickly returned to his original smile.
(This guy...)
Alfred became slightly more alert.
The Duke of Opold's family has always had a bad relationship with the Duke of Elect's family where he was born.
The two families are extremely incompatible both in terms of practical interests and the personalities of the family members.
Especially in the past, Duke Opold blocked the supply line of the Eastern Defense Force when the monsters invaded the empire in order to defeat the hostile Marquis of Lespinasse faction. Alfred's father, Ron, responded by using the assets of the Elect family to raise supplies and send them to the front line.
This incident made Duke Opold very resentful. From that time on, the relationship between the two families has remained at a freezing point.
No matter what the other party's surprised expression just now meant, it was not a good thing for Alfred.
"So Master Antoinette, what are you going to have us do?"
Heenan asked with a smile, seemingly up to something.
"These two guys bumped into me first. You won't just leave them alone, will you? I want that woman to apologize to us and go drink with us!"
Ben yelled, pointing at Louise.
"Oh, I see... Then what kind of reward do you plan to offer?"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Ben glared at Heenan unhappily.
"Although we are also responsible for maintaining order on the night streets, the Duke has not ordered us not to accept commissions outside of work. Do you understand what I mean?"
Heenan said. He hinted to Ben that he and his men could help him achieve his request, but they would receive corresponding gifts as rewards.
"Tsk, you are really good at scheming. I get it, you guys should teach that brat a lesson and bring Louise to me!"
Ben didn't hesitate and agreed immediately.
"Please wait a moment, let's talk about the reward first. If we successfully complete your commission, we hope you can hand over Miss Wordsworth to us as part of the reward."
Heenan said.
"what do you mean?"
"Anyway, after you're done having fun, she'll be of no use to you, right?"
Heenan didn't answer, but asked Ben with a smile.
(Is his target Louise-senpai?)
Alfred glanced at Louise behind him. Louise also looked confused, not understanding why the other party was targeting her.
"Tsk, I get it. After we have enough fun with that girl, we will give it to you!"
I agreed reluctantly.
"I'm glad to have your consent."
Heenan clapped his hands again and said.
"Please teach this ignorant brat a lesson."
Dozens of strong men in black suits and holding various weapons surrounded Alfred and Louise.
Unlike Ben's fellow useless puppeteers, these strong men are professionally trained warriors.
They are not the kind of half-baked people who can only rely on the power of the puppets and cannot fight without them.
"Brother Al, these guys are a bit bad, right?"
Louise took out a short staff and a magic ball from under her cloak, ready to join the battle at any time.
"That level of threat is not enough to threaten me. But please be careful, Senior Louise. That man named Xinan is targeting you, and he might use some despicable tricks."
Alfred swung the dagger confidently and warned Louise behind him.
"Are you really okay, junior?"
Louise looked very uneasy.
"Do not worry."
After Alfred finished speaking, he immediately rushed towards a strong man.
He used the handle of the dagger to hit the opponent's neck hard, knocking the strong man unconscious.
Then Alfred nimbly dodged the sword swung by another person, dived into the arms of the sword wielder, and smashed his fist hard into his heart.
"Second one~, who is the next one who is not afraid of death?"
Alfred kicked the unconscious strong man away and asked loudly at the remaining people.
Although these strong men were all tall and strong, Alfred, who was still a teenager, looked much thinner and weaker than them.
However, Alfred's ability to instantly defeat two people, as well as his confident aura, still frightened them all.
A group of big men surrounded Alfred and Louise, and they didn't dare to make any rash moves for a long time.
"Alas~ You are such a useless bunch. I thought I had trained you well enough."
Heenan sighed helplessly and stretched out his hand to Louise. Dozens of silvery-white filaments immediately shot out from under the pair of white gloves on his hands and flew straight towards Louise.
But before the filaments touched Louise, another figure stood in front of Louise and entangled all the attacking filaments with his sword.
At the same time, Heenan felt something sharp pressing against his neck and immediately stopped moving.
"You actually attacked Lord Al. It seems like you bastards are tired of living."
Emma put the sword against Xi Nan's neck, with a ferocious expression on her face, and whispered intimidatingly.
Xinan raised his hands and stopped resisting, indicating that he surrendered.
"Ah, miss, I think you misunderstood. We just..."
