It was a good time to go out and buy things for the long haul.

Early in the morning this damned Fersen came to the Baron again.

With a smile on his face, he said:

"Oh, are you here?" After yesterday, he didn't know what to do.

After the preparations came to an end, Luna decided to say goodbye to her father, then go and rent a carriage.

The destination was the Palais estate, where the land she had bought with gold underground was located. She was ready to dig the earth with her hands to throw this gold in Seira's face.

"I have to go..."

Wanting to avoid meeting Fersen, he suggested that she leave in the morning without having breakfast. Before leaving, the baron handed her a large sum of money, which he had been saving for some time.

Luna, with a sigh of relief, thanked her father.

"Thank you, father. "

"I'm afraid that may not be enough. In any case, it worries me that you are going to the wrong place where you can relax ... "

There was nothing in Pale. There were no residents, not to mention a village, not even a single dilapidated house.

There were no places to visit, not even wells.

The territory was small, some travelers passed through it and did not even notice anything.

But the city is right next to it, it was the second after the capital, with the Vincent estate located there. The road to the Palais estate just passed through it. So the baron was not worried.

Luna smiled, her beautiful smile, and tried to ease the baron's anxiety.

"Things are good. The crew and I will stay at Vincent's estate, there is good security, don't worry. "

"Nevertheless, my beautiful, sweet, kind and innocent child travels alone, even without a servant ... "

"What are you talking about? Who will stay with you? "

They had three people working on their estate.

One of them is Laura, the loyal servant of Luna. She did all the household chores.

The second was Henry, who was in charge of field operations and crew management, including the baron's travel to work.

Well, the chef, Emma, ​​who also cleaned the mansion when her hands were not busy preparing food.

They could not be separated, because they were all important to their estate.

And there was no money to hire new ones.

The Baron understood this and said embarrassedly:

"...... Sorry. That you have such a father ... ... "

"Do not apologize, the ancestors are guilty who have not accumulated anything for so many generations. Who can get rich in one day? And don't worry, I will only drive on the high road and only during the day. We will stop at Vincent's estate so as not to meet with the bandits. "

With a dozen mercenaries, she would calmly reach her goal. And no one would have dared to attack her, if only they were not crazy.

"When you arrive, please send me a letter. If anything happens, come back right away. "

"Good dad. When I return I will bring you a present. "

After saying goodbye, Luna set off in a hurry.

***

Soon, the carriage arrived at the place where the carriages were to be rented.

The scale of this place was quite large.

Twenty-two large vans and dozens of mercenaries, and good looking staff.

It was more like a parade.

They made a stern impression.

"Is there a law that mercenaries must be harsh? Something like if you have a heavy build and look stern, then you are suitable for this role, or if a huge physique, and a formidable look, and on top of it all, the body is covered with tattoos. "

"Looks mesmerizing ......"

But you couldn't just draw tattoos for yourself. Most of these mercenaries were assassins. Even if Luna did not know how terrible the world was, she understood that every tattoo meant murder.

So she was desperately looking for a man who didn't look so intimidating to talk to him without leaving the van.

"This person......."

"Maybe he?"

The only thing I could see was the view from the back, there were no weapons in his neat suit. Most likely, he was someone from the staff, and not a mercenary.

Luna, hastily got out of the carriage, called out to the man.

"Sorry, I want to ask you something ..... "

"What's the matter?"

Ten menacing eyes stared at her.

Before her stood a tall blond man, and behind him stood some nasty men.

Luna, surprised by this unexpected situation, opened her eyes wide.

The fit man snapped a finger to calm those around him. Then he looked around and asked again.

"What's the matter?"

"But what? ...... Such a handsome man? "

I didn't see his face because he was standing with his back. When I first saw the mercenaries, I was also speechless, but now there was a different reason.

Gorgeous blonde hair and neat pale green eyes are usually the features of the main character. But they fit this tall man so well.

His face could not be mistaken for a woman's. He was handsome, handsome, with a pleasant, handsome face.

His sharp gaze, disheveled blonde hair and white shirt gave him an unwavering air.

"Is there something written on my face?"

After all the time she saw only men with terrible tattoos, she could not utter a word, he laughed and asked, as if he had known her for a long time.

Despite the fact that he was so beautiful, Luna came to her senses, because she had more important tasks before her.

"I want to meet with the chief. "

"With the main one?

Suddenly glances gushed at her, an unknown girl who wanted to see the main thing looked ridiculous. The man also stared at Luna and spoke slowly.

"I think you'll tell me what you want, won't you?"

The reaction of those around him was calm. He looked like a kind of manager.

There was no more time to doubt, so Luna gathered all her will into a fist, nodded and said:

"My name is Luna, I'm going to Vincent's estate."

"Luna?"

The man frowned as if he had heard the name for the first time.

Do they think they will need my surname too? I wanted to travel alone, but I had no reason to hesitate because I still passed on information about myself when renting a van.

"Yes, Luna Pales. I was told if I want to rent a carriage, I have to come here. "

"..... Luna Pales? "

Hearing the name, he asked back with a cold face.

Her family was small, she did not think that the man had heard her last name, but she was wrong. Luna was more famous than she thought.

"BUT! Duke Rodrian's mistress ?! "

"And I thought where I heard that name! "

"Fersen's mistress!"

The screams of the mercenaries came from the depths.

She was afraid of the mercenaries, but their words irritated her more than fear for her own life. Luna got angry and said:

"Hey. What did you say? This is my first time here, isn't it too rude to speak without knowing anything about it? "

This was true for them, so many of the mercenaries simply brushed it off.

When Luna sincerely, irritably refuted their words, the man with sad eyes blinked and quietly asked:

"Is this just a rumor? But then I heard Rodrian talking only about you. This cannot be, only if you are not his mistress. "

"Fersen, what the hell? I never could have imagined what it would be like to live with such rumors circulating about you. "

Luna answered quickly.

"Definitely not. Just because of his character, I was his only friend. I hope you don't take these misunderstandings seriously. And to be honest, I hate Fersen. I would break something for him if I had the strength. "

For a while they gossiped about Fersen.

"Do you hate? Why? You said he was the only friend. "

"Will a friend spread such rumors? Now I doubt at all whether he has a brain. "

It's hard to be delicate, but he's a fool to take such a crooked path.

Much accumulated in the soul of Luna, when she openly criticized Fersen, the mercenaries silently listened to her.

The man also gazed at Luna and began to see the truth in her eyes.

As she spoke, she avoided his gaze.

"He has no brains at all ...... "

The manager attentively listened to Luna's story, looked at her with an approving look and laughed out loud.
