Chapter 626: Seagull Kate

"Hailar, why are you drinking again!" The seagull wearing a sailor hat suddenly uttered a voice, and the clear voice sounded like a young girl.
"It's not that I want to drink, Sister Kate. I made a new friend today. If I invite a friend to dinner and don't come to order some wine, doesn't it look like I'm stingy?" Hailar blushed and secretly gave Joan an eye, signaling him to cooperate with himself Lying round, she seemed a little afraid of the female seagull dressed as a sailor.
"Good afternoon, Ms. Kate, it's an honor to meet you." Joan hadn't even spoken. Holden chatted with the seagull quite familiarly. He took off her hat politely and said hello, then asked curiously: "Please forgive me for taking the liberty, are you a druid, right?"
Ordinary seagulls don't wear scarves and hats, and don't even speak out. Holden naturally suspects that the other party is a druid who uses the "wild transformation" ability to become a seagull.
Kate glanced lightly at Holden, did not answer his question, and turned to ask Hailar: "This gentleman is also your friend?"
"He? Not!" Hailar showed no mercy to Holden.
Joan worried that this would lead to a new round of quarrels, quickly diverted the topic, and said hello to Seagull Kate.
"You are a friend of Hailar, and you look like a mage. Your eyesight should be good, so do you think I am a druid?" Seagull Kate stared at Joan, as if trying to test him.
Joan looked at Kate seriously, and then answered after a few seconds.
"I don't think you are like a seagull turned by a human druid, but a druid turned by a seagull."
Kate looked up and laughed, but did not really laugh out loud, and looked at Joan's eyes with a bit of appreciation.
"Young man, you are very good, continue to talk."
"Uh, this is just my guess... Ms. Kate, you seem to be a seagull endowed with superb intelligence by the "Enlightenment", so you can learn the language of humans, as for how you get the Druid heritage, this I can't guess."
"Actually Kate was my mother's'animal partner' during her lifetime. The druid inheritance was also obtained from my mother. After the mother died, Kate stayed with me to care for me, just like my sister." Hailar caressed the seagull The smooth feathers are full of tenderness.
After listening to her explanation, Joan and Holden suddenly realized. It turned out that Hailar's mother was a high-level Druid who passed away unfortunately many years ago. Before his death, he used "Enlightenment" to open up wisdom for his animal partner, Seagull Kate, and became even smarter than most humans. Kate Druid inherited and asked her to take good care of her daughter Hailar for herself.
Hailar told Kate that he was accompanying Joan to return to school early, and Seagull nodded, as if not surprised by her interim decision.
"Daddy had guessed that you would stay in Freeport for a while and instead of sneaking out to play, it would be better to return to Meadgard as early as possible."
"Oh? Did Dad send you to talk to me?" Hailar asked in a low voice.
Seagull Zheng focused his head and then said: "Dad asked me to tell you to go to school to study hard, don't provoke wrongdoing, and remind you to watch out for Maisinger's revenge."
"Aren't you going back to school with me?"
"There is still an urgent matter for my father to help me deal with. I can't get away from it for the time being, you are not a little girl anymore, and I don't need to be with me as a nanny."
Kate lowered her head and sighed, looking sad.
"I will write down your instructions, Sister Kate, I will get on the boat tomorrow morning. For the sake of convenience, I will not go back to the castle tonight. I will stay with my friends in the hotel. After you go back, say goodbye to my dad for the summer vacation. I will come back to visit his old man again."
"I know, I wish you all the best." Kate jumped to Hailar's shoulder and probed the girl's cheek gently, as if sending a farewell kiss, and then spread his wings and flew out of the window, disappearing into the clouds above the harbor in a blink of an eye.
Joan watched the seagull Kate fly away, remembering her advice to Hailar just now, and asked Hailar: "Does Messinger's men refer to the three thieves headed by "Quick Knife" Nelson?"
Hailar nodded, and his face became more severe: "The three street gangsters are not a concern, but their boss McSingh is not easy to mess with."
For the first time, Joan saw the girl who was not afraid of the day, showing an uneasy look, and asked curiously: "Which character is Messinger, is it powerful in Freeport?"
"This is a long story. Although the free port looks free on the surface, there is actually an order-making body, that is, the city’s municipal council. Since most of the members are pirate leaders and smugglers who are active in the nearby waters, so This council is also known as the'pirate council'." Hailar explained to Joan from the beginning.
"Every member of the'Pirate Council' has his own private looting ship or armed smuggling ship. The cannon on board is fierce. Their strongholds are scattered along the east coast and rule an island or port. Midgard The colonial regular navy did not dare to easily provoke these ruthless characters."
"Sir Lord Heller, the lord of Freeport, is recognized as the speaker of the pirate council, and has a more powerful armed fleet than other members of the parliament, but he can’t do it alone in the parliament, nor do he have the power of a king. Disputed authority."
"Some powerful members of Parliament have respect for Lord Herrell on the surface, but secretly often do things that go against his will. Francis Metzinger is a representative of such people."
"This man relied on smuggling and looting his fortune, and later started a slave trade, from Yalfheim to Meadgard, to Jotunheim further north, his business is all over Wilnoya East. Coast, do you know how he got rich?"
"Assault residents in coastal villages and even islands, kidnap and load ships, and sell them as slaves to plantations in the south or mines in the north-this is the secret of Francis Metzinger's fortune!"
Hailar questioned and answered himself, and his words revealed contempt for the pirate leader and slave trader.
