Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

However, the incident five years ago did cause a sensation in the surrounding area.”

“My Lord, actually, that incident five years ago was not done by mountain bandits but by a group of professional soldiers,” said Kara as she took a deep breath and continued, “At the time, after learning the news.”

Upon receiving the news, General Joshua, who was still the captain at the time, immediately took a few of his trusted men and returned to investigate Redarrow City.

Initially, after interviewing the residents of the town, they found out that the sudden attackers were indeed dressed as ordinary mountain bandits.

However, after breaking through the city gate, they directly attacked the City Lord Mansion, with a very clear target. This immediately aroused our suspicion.

After all, compared to the heavily guarded City Lord Mansion, the local wealthy merchants’ combined wealth was no small sum.

But until the menacing bandits left with their loot, they didn’t approach any other houses.”

“I see.” Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and said, “It seems that the so-called robbery was just an illusion.”

“Your Lordship is absolutely right.” Kara sighed lightly and continued, “After deducing that something was fishy, we were suspicious, but we had no solid evidence.

In the end, it was not until we found a surviving wounded soldier in a resident’s house by accident.

According to the terrified wounded soldier, the mountain bandits not only had strong strength and ruthless means, but also had a tight organization and complete command system, clearly not ordinary bandits.

What’s more crucial is that during the battle, the wounded soldier also recognized several of the so-called masked bandits, who were actually elite soldiers from Pinehaven City, the neighboring city!

“Pinehaven City?” Upon hearing this, Leo Ray showed a thoughtful expression.

He had also heard about Pinehaven City from Xenia Blackwood.

This medium-sized city is located south of Redarrow town, very close to the border between Coldflame and Saint Night.

In the surrounding area, it’s considered an extremely powerful and dominant force.

Thinking of this, Leo Ray stroked his chin, pondering thoughtfully, “So, those so-called mountain bandits were actually disguised elite soldiers from Pinehaven City?”

“Answering Your Lordship, yes, it is. Kara nodded with furrowed brows and continued, “After that, through a series of investigations, we found out that half a month before the attack, Marquis Rocky, the lord of Pinehaven City, had discussed with General Joshua’s adoptive father, the Lord of Redarrow City, about breeding Water Elemental Demon magic pearl monsters in the waters of Redarrow City.

The magic bead produced in this Water Elemental Demon Beast’s body is an essential material for refining several Tier 1 Magic Medicines and is quite valuable.

However, this kind of Demon Beast, after reaching adulthood, is at a Tier 1 Peak level that ordinary people simply cannot match, and it is extremely ferocious and brutal.

In history, there have been many instances of people suffering the consequences of breeding these ferocious Beast]

Therefore, General Joshua’s adoptive father naturally didn’t want such a ferocious Demon Beast to appear in his city.

Compared to the vast wealth, General Joshua’s adoptive father obviously cared more about the safety of the city’s residents.

Having said this, Kara sighed lightly again and continued, “But it was because of this that the declining Earl’s family suffered a catastrophe.”

“So it seems that after getting rid of General Joshua’s adoptive father, the one who took over Redarrow City must have been someone related to Marquis Rocky, or Marquis Rocky himself, right?

Moreover, there must be a large number of dangerous magic pearl monsters bred in Redarrow City now.” Sitting opposite on the throne, Leo Ray nodded slightly and mused.”My Lord is right.”

On the other side, Carlo still nodded with a gloomy face and said, “At present, the jurisdiction of this city has indeed fallen into the hands of Marquis Rocky’s family.”

After Redarrow Town started large-scale breeding of Magic Pearl Monsters, it became Marquis Rocky’s cash cow.

Although many residents of Redarrow Town die each year as a result, all of this has only become conversations and jokes for these big shots to occupy themselves with at meals.”

In summary, after a series of investigations, General Joshua and a few of our trusted followers finally confirmed that Marquis Rocky is behind all this.”

This hypocrite, who appears virtuous on the surface, not only completely slaughtered Joshua’s foster parents and their family but also burned the monastery where he grew up, fighting alongside the City Lord’s Mansion until the last moment. The methods employed were extremely vicious.”

It caused Joshua, who had already lost his home once before, to lose it again for the second time.”

“I understand.” Leo Ray thought about it for a moment and said, “If my guess is correct, the reason Joshua hasn’t taken revenge on this enemy yet must be due to the huge force backing him up, right?”

“My Lord is correct again.” Carlo nodded slightly and continued, “The person standing behind Marquis Rocky is none other than the Crown Prince of the Coldflame Royal Family!

Furthermore, his own strength is at the level of Tier 4 Senior Powerhouses, almost equal to General Joshua, with numerous experts at his side.”

As a result, although Joshua clearly knows that his enemy is right in front of him, he still can’t do anything about it and can only grit his teeth and hide everything deep within his heart.”

What’s even more infuriating is that this guy admitted to his actions in public under Joshua’s repeated questioning and then left without any worries, laughing heartily…”

At this point, Carlo clenched his fists tightly, and his face was full of anger.

“So that’s how it is.” Upon hearing this, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows and then waved his hand, “Alright, that’s enough. Captain Carlo, go back and rest early.”

“Yes, my Lord.” Carlo bowed to Leo Ray and Adams in succession, and then left with a clenched fist.

A few moments later, as the hall was once again filled only with their own subordinates, Leo Ray, who had already made up his mind, first finished the tea in his cup, then had Adams call the three Floating Moon Clan elders over.

After some coercion and intimidation, Leo Ray looked at the three frightened elders as they left.

Under Adams’s guidance, Leo Ray and his party ate some seafood dishes with Mystara City’s unique characteristics in the castle’s banquet hall and casually strolled around this charming city.

Finally, they returned to the hall they were in earlier.

During this process, Leo Ray also gave Orion Wolfe and Amelia a few hours off to be with their families since they hadn’t been home for a long time.

“City Master Adams, I’m entrusting everything in Mystara City to you. If there’s anything, contact me with Mind Talk in time.”

At this moment, Leo Ray nodded slightly at the respectful Adams and signaled the other subordinates to gather around him.

“Yes, my Lord, please rest assured!” Adams immediately bowed his body and his face was full of respect.

“Alright, let’s leave.” Leo Ray moved his thoughts, and a cold Returning Crystal suddenly appeared in his palm.

Without any hesitation, he immediately crushed the blue crystal stone he had just taken out.

The next second, the strange energy within the crystal burst out, instantly enveloping Leo Ray and his party.

As time went by, under Adams’s watchful gaze, the blue light curtain surrounding Leo Ray and his party became thicker and thicker.

Eventually, a flash of white light later, Adams’s people disappeared completely from the hall.
