Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 287 Gentleman
Evelyn left without saying goodbye when she first entered Oak Town, and now she appeared at Stannis' bedside again like a god of death.

"Why are you so elusive..."

Before he finished asking, there was a sound of footsteps going upstairs from outside the door, and then Amina's voice of asking.

"What's wrong, Stan, how can I hear screaming from your room? Is there any danger!"

Stannis glanced at Evelyn in front of him, and lied casually, "It's nothing, I just had a nightmare just now! I dreamed of a cold-blooded woman who wanted to take my life!"

He said he told Evelyn to listen on purpose, but the other party didn't mind.And Amin outside the door also seemed to believe it, "Oh, then you should have a good rest, and call me if you need anything, I'll be downstairs."

After finishing speaking, another series of footsteps sounded, indicating that the master had gone downstairs.

Now Stannis could finally grill her why she kept letting him go.

"Elder Sister, if you do this again, I will be scared to death by you, but you will pay for the funeral expenses." Robert said while putting on his clothes.

Evelyn turned around the bed, her footsteps were as light as a civet cat's without even making a sound.

Seeing the other party walk the runway in his room, Stannis was of course very upset, he lowered his voice and complained: "I said you are talking, you are always so silent, I am really tired of communicating with you! "

But the other party still didn't intend to speak, she just put her index finger on her lips that didn't apply makeup to signal him to keep quiet.

"Listen, don't you think it's quiet in here?"

Hearing what she said, Stannis, who was restless at first, really found something was wrong. It was too quiet outside the window, and everything was silent between heaven and earth, as if he was in the boundless space, and he couldn’t hear it even if he stuck it to his ear to a sound.

"Why is this town so quiet at night? It's as if there is no one there." Stannis said incredulously.

Evelyn glanced at him approvingly: "You can also hear the weirdness of this town, and that's why I came to investigate here."

Although the night here is indeed a little too quiet, but maybe the people here go to bed earlier, and Stannis really can't imagine what dark secrets are hidden under this simple town that can alarm the Pope, so that Pai Crow came to investigate.

"Do you have nothing to do in the hall of the King of Law all day long! And let me declare in advance that I am only here to find someone, so don't drag me into the water again!" Stannis was about to close his eyes and go to sleep after finishing speaking.

But as soon as he closed his eyes, he found that he was suspended in the air, but it wasn't because of any weird spells, he was simply lifted up by Evelyn with one hand.

Stannis remembered that he weighed 180 pounds, and the petite girl lifted herself as easily as a chicken, and Stannis had to wonder if she was a strange woman.

"Hey, if you have something to say, don't do it!" Stannis threatened, although he knew that he was not an enemy of Evelyn without a sword.

The girl raised her head, looked at Stannis, and then said word by word, "Listen well, Stannis, I am not asking you to cooperate with me this time, but I have to. Because of my special status, I can't rashly show up here. In the town, you who have been disguised as a traveler can move around smoothly, so from now on, you must bring back all the news you have inquired during the day."

"But I'm just looking for someone, I really don't want to get involved in such a mess." Stannis said with difficulty in mid-air, his neck felt even tighter.

"Am I not clear enough? This is the emperor's will, and you have to cooperate whether you like it or not!"

This is too overbearing!But Stannis could only agree verbally for the time being, "Okay, no problem, it's an honor to serve His Majesty the Emperor! Can you let me go?"

Evelyn finally let go of her hand, and the man lay limp on the bed, taking a big gulp of air.

"Remember, your first task now is to find the secrets hidden in Oak Town, and everything else must stop!"

As soon as Stannis heard it, he understood that this was telling him to give up looking for Anya and instead serve her wholeheartedly. Of course he was very upset, but he had only promised to help her just now, so he couldn't go back on his word immediately.

"Also, when I first entered the town this afternoon, I felt that I was being watched, so I decided to hide here and don't show up for the time being. Remember not to let that man named A Ming in, otherwise the blood here will be difficult to wipe Dry."

Stannis immediately yelled, "How can this work? How can a single man and a widow live in the same room! Besides, there is only one single bed in total. Where will you sleep if I sleep? But I have no problem sleeping on me. "

Evelyn didn't give him a good face, and directly made a decision, "I'll sleep on the bed, and you sleep on the floor."

"Damn, it's really too much!" Although Stannis said so, he could only hug the quilt and hit the floor on the floor.

Evelyn stared at Stannis, who was curled up on the ground like a lobster, as if she was not satisfied, and she continued to order: "Turn around and face the wall."

"What are you doing! Don't let me sleep!"

"How can I sleep without taking off my clothes?"

"……Oh."

Finally, Evelyn finally took off the hard close-fitting black leather from her body, and then she lay naked on the mattress that Stannis had just warmed up, and Stannis kept facing the wall as she ordered during the whole process.

The two kept a strange silence like this. Evelyn was motionless because she made up her mind that she would not fall asleep tonight, while Stannis was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep.

After a while, a strange sound came from the bed, and Stannis listened for a while, and recognized that it was the hollow sound of a hungry stomach.

That is, Evelyn on the bed is hungry.

How can this work!Stannis, a gentleman who would never let girls suffer, climbed in from the floor, and then took out a treasured little pumpkin from under his clothes-it was something he had secretly stolen at dinner for supper, and handed it to Eve Lin, and pretended to be angry and said: "Really, how can you make people fall asleep with such a loud stomach! Eat it soon, don't disturb my dream!"

If it was before, Evelyn would have decisively knocked the pumpkin in his hand to the ground. Even if she died, she would not accept this man's charity. But this time, she smelled a different smell from this familiar body. .

She took the pumpkin and took a light bite.

Perhaps, Stannis is really dead, and the man in front of him is a new beginning—becoming the perfect pawn in his own revenge.
