Vol 3 Chapter 10: Joanna's Knight

The short sword is a rare prismatic sword. The moment the soldier pierced the heart, the guard had lost his life, and the companion next to him did not even know what happened.
It was not until another dagger traversed his neck from behind, and then quickly opened a deep blood groove in the throat that the other guard moaned and fell to the ground.
"Hurry up." The young men who started the provocation were undoubtedly the heads of these people. He shook the prismatic sword on his hand, and a string of blood splashed on the marble steps. He led a group of people quickly Under the cover of night, from the shadows, following the wide steps towards the gate of the Marino Palace.
These people were like ghosts in the middle of the night. They quickly approached the palace, and then circumvented the lighted windows against the wall. When they came to the gate of the palace, they took out a pair of weird masks from their arms and put them on Over head.
For a while, these people looked weird and terrifying. When they looked at each other, they saw a pair of ghostly lights flashing out of their eyes and greedy eyes.
There was a faint voice in the palace. The people inside did not know what was happening outside. He listened carefully to the movements inside. The leading man raised his blood-stained dagger and waved his companion slightly.
The side door next to the door was gently pushed open, and as a light flashed out, the head of the person saw the scene inside.
Although Cardano Montero ’s men took good care of the house, Joanna apparently planned to live in the Marino Palace for a long time, so after staying in, she ordered that the house, which had not been owner for some time, be cleaned up. This made her servants busy immediately after entering the door.
Except for the queen ’s own room, all the places seemed very busy. The servants put various sizes of cages unloaded from the carriage, as well as those sculptures, paintings, curtains, curtains and carpets, all piled up on the open space in the center of the palace hall. People who come and go are so busy that they can't lift their heads.
So no one noticed what was happening outside, and no one noticed that a group of uninvited guests had quietly sneaked into the Marino Palace along a small door that had been opened in advance.
When the guards were killed, Alexander was standing in the shadow of a street not too far from the Palace of Marino. When those people sneaked into the palace, Alexander did to the corner of the Palace of Marino across the street. Gestures.
Carlo, who was hiding in the dark, nodded and showed excitement. Compared with other Aggris, Carlo was more aware and more enthusiastic about how to survive and pursue wealth in this chaotic era. When he decided to go from the farm When Li walked out to follow Alexander's adventure, he was already determined that he would stand out.
So he was more enthusiastic about the plan proposed by Nashan than anyone else, and because he had fought for the Cosenza family, Carlo also knew when to become cold and cruel.
So he watched calmly as they killed the two guards who had previously travelled together and even had a drink, and then took the person carefully to the steps, stepping on the wet blood under his feet and quietly following, seeing the last one The man disappeared into the door, and Carlo immediately motioned for his men to follow.
Joanna was sitting in the room drinking hot wine before going to bed. She was recalling the scene when she met with Cardinal Monteiro. When she heard the sudden cries outside and the terrible screams came, the queen was first. Suddenly, then he walked towards the door blankly.
But before she reached the door, the door was suddenly pushed open!
The panicked maid stumbled in and shouted, "The robber, some robbers came in!"
Joanna looked overwhelmed and looked at the terrified maid without even saying hello. I ran past her and rushed into the room, and then locked the door from inside.
At the same time, screaming and terrifying roars had already sounded in the corridor outside the room.
At this time, Joanna realized that the situation was not good. She turned and ran to the middle, but she couldn't open the door. When she panicked the door in horror, what she heard was the maid inside yelling loudly: "You go Open! Go somewhere else! "
"I'm your queen, open the door!" Joanna had changed her tone because of the cry of fear.
But there was no sound in the room.
Just as Joanna turned to find another hiding place, a servant suddenly appeared at the door stumbled.
In Joanna's frightened eyes, the servant staggered towards her two steps, and then fell down on the floor not far from her.
Joanna's dreaded hands covered her mouth and stared at the servant who fell to the ground. Then she saw a pair of feet in boots suddenly appeared in front of her. The feet passed the servant's body and came to her in a few steps.
Joanna looked up and saw the face wearing a mask and the eyes of the mask staring at her closely.
"This woman is the queen of Naples," he whispered to the chief, as he watched Joanna's eyes show indelible greed. "She can bring us a golden mountain."
"Maybe more."
The leader said in a low voice that he hesitated and then raised his hand to Joanna.
"Don't touch me, I am Queen of Naples!"
Joanna gritted her teeth to try to maintain her last dignity, but her chin was immediately squeezed rudely, and the leader looked at her with a playful look.
"Of course my majesty, but you have to listen to me before you enjoy your honor again."
The man said, grabbing Joanna's arm, forcing her to follow him outside, and he ordered his men to: "Hurry up, take only the valuable things that can be taken away, beware that the French patrol found . "
As he commanded, the robbers immediately began to hunt around, and the Naples who were still resisting because they saw the queen was arrested, they could not help but give up their resistance. To the corner of the house.
"I will not hurt your queen, but if you are not honest, the queen's injury is your crime." The leader dragged Joanna down the stairs, watching the guards who gave up resistance, and he nodded. "Now everyone Be good, maybe things will pass quickly. "
"How about your majesty." A young guard stepped forward and was immediately severely kicked in the stomach and kneeled to the ground.
"Very brave young man." The leader walked over to the guard. The prismatic short sword in his hand suddenly struck an arc, and then the blade edge was thrust into the guard's neck from top to bottom.
The women shouted in horror, and the man stepped back in fear. People watched the guard stand still in a kneeling posture, but a scarlet blood was quickly spread out under him.
"If anyone is disobedient, this is a role model," the leader once again grabbed Joanna's arm that was crumbling with fear, and dragged her forward. "Your Majesty, we have to have a small trip, I hope you won't mind."
Joanna was dragged forward by the man and stumbled forward. At this time, her mind was blank. She was not so flustered when her husband died and met the Frenchman on the road. She even forgot to make a sound until The man who had just walked to the corner of the hall suddenly stopped and dragged her back, tearing her arm before Joanna groaned.
Several figures suddenly appeared in front of these people who had sneaked into the small door of the Palace of Marino. When they saw the man with the weird long sword in his hand in the front, Joanna first felt her eyes, and then she finally recognized that this man should be Is a member of Alexander.
"Hurry up and save me! I am the queen!"
Joanna shouted in desperation, but then she was forced to be carried by the leader and rushed towards the back door of the Palace of Marino in a screaming struggle.
Before leaving, the leader shouted to his men:
"Block them!"
"Kill these robbers!" At the same time, Carlo gave orders to his men.
The robbers raised their weapons, and they were not afraid. The perennial life made them already accustomed to killing and also looked down upon being killed.
But when they rushed in front of the enemy, they saw the muzzle of a row of black holes that suddenly appeared in front of their eyes.
The musket that was almost in front of him suddenly ejected a large group of Mars and smoke. The deafening sound of the musket in the entire hall seemed to shake, and the gangster who was not caught by the scream was screaming. Luo was the first to break through the thick smoke, raised his weapon and rushed towards the gangsters who were beaten and turned.
The roar of muskets, the collision of weapons, the screams of the injured, and the screams of women in horror came from Joanna ’s ears, but she was dizzy because she was carried on her shoulders. Overwhelmed, even if the man seemed to jump out of the window with her shoulders firmly in her stomach, she failed to make a cry.
The ground in front of her couldn't help but extend backwards, and the black twigs of trees on both sides from time to time crossed Joanna's neck, hair, and even caused fiery pain on her face.
"How did those people come out," the man next to the former leader said to the leader while running. "What should we do now, we only caught this woman, and the money was too late to bring it out."
"It's enough to have this woman," the leader gasped. "Someone will pay a large ransom for her, and that money will be enough for us to live the rest of our lives."
"That's good, or you will lose money this time ..."
Without saying a word, a scream passed into Joanna's ear, something hot was splashing on her face, and then the masked face with the sharp knife in the right eye of the gangster appeared in front of the face-down Joanna .
"Let me see what good things you got," a figure came out of the dark shades, Nashan's saber rested on his shoulders, and the knife face patted his shoulders gently with his pace, his eyes tight. Staring at the leader of the gangster who stopped opposite, "Maybe you should put down the person first, so it can't be my opponent."
"Maybe you should make way," the sharp diamond blade of the diamond-shaped short sword in the leader's hand rested on the struggling Joanna's ribs. With a slight effort, Joanna's body suddenly shook and then froze. "Just From here, the Royal Family of Naples will have another funeral. "
Nashan pouted: "It's true, but you probably don't know that I am a Bohemian, so do you think I will care about the life and death of a Jager woman, even if she is a queen, but to me even I can't save her, as long as I can kill you, I can still get a good reward. "
Nashan ’s words made the leader stunned. He did not look at the person in front of him because of the dim sky, but now he only noticed Nashan ’s strange clothes because of the sudden appearance. The gypsy stayed in an instant.
And Nashan is waiting for this opportunity!
In the darkness, the leader seemed to see Nashan's left hand beside him suddenly flick. Although his gaze had always been attracted by the saber who could not beat his shoulder in the right hand of the gypsy, his companion was suddenly killed by the ghostly flying knife. Has already aroused his vigilance.
So when Nashan's left hand just shook, the leader almost threw Joanna on his shoulders forward, and the prismatic short sword in his right hand was thrown hard at night. Joanna stabbed!
A bright flash flew from Nashan's hands, his saber spinning around Joanna's side and flying towards the gangster leader!
This forced the man to withdraw his short knife that tried to stab Joanna ~ EbookFREE.me ~ struggling to flash away.
The saber flew into the grass with an arc, and Nashan had already rushed to Joanna.
"You don't have any weapons." The leader shook the prismatic sword, his eyes flickered on Nashan, just when he decided to take a risk, while Nashan was freeing his hand to help him fall and shouted. When Joanna rushed past, there were rapid footsteps and vocals from behind and from behind.
"You have no time." Nashan held the queen's waist in one hand and touched the waist with one hand. "And I can kill you."
The gaze in the chief's eye hole flashed slightly, and then suddenly the diamond sword in his hand was projected forward!
At the same time, he turned and threw himself into a dark bush next to it. Just as Nashan was holding Joanna away from the dagger, the leader's figure had disappeared into the night.
When Carlo took them to find them because of Joanna, who was screaming in horror, they saw that the new widow queen of Naples was holding the gypsy's neck tightly while shouting hysterically. Do n’t leave me, please do n’t leave me,
while keeping the whole body close to the gypsy body, almost the wonder that hung on him.
Carlo looked at the scene with a certain stunned face. He even saw Nashan holding his arms around Joanna's waist, whispering comfortably in the queen's ear, the little widow who had just been frightened, and shaking his shoulders from the queen Blinking his eyes cunningly at him. 8)
