"I hope you keep your word, otherwise your enemies will not only be the heretics."
This time it was Lorn who threatened Natalie.
After finishing speaking, without waiting for the paladin captain to respond, he continued, "But recently I heard There is a rumor that the Morris family will be in so much trouble this time because their head of the family was assassinated.
The person who assassinated the old Marquis Maurice was said to be a very powerful assassin.
I'm afraid not many people can still escape under the encirclement and suppression of many Morris family knights.
Among the people I know, Pendra Knight is one of them.
As his daughter, Captain Paladin, do you know the current whereabouts of our first knight?"
Lorne heard about the assassin from Richard, and the Morris family also suspected that the assassin was the First Knight.
But there is no evidence, and the impact on the morale of the empire would be too great if this matter was made public.
The people sent by Lorne also had no information about the First Knight, so he asked Natalie directly.
If the First Knight is really an assassin, then Lorne will have to go to the toilet with a bodyguard.
As the daughter of the First Knight, Lorne believed that as long as Knight Pendra was not dead, Natalie would definitely know some inside information.
Sure enough, there were some different expressions on the cold face of the Paladin Captain, but she was obviously unwilling to tell Lorne.
"Our church will send people to investigate this matter, you don't need to worry."
A master assassin threatens his life.
No matter how you think about it, you can't say that this matter has nothing to do with Lorne.
What's more, Natalie's fleeting expression just now showed that there was something wrong with the other party.
When it came to the safety of her own life, Natalie was in charge, but Lorne couldn't just pretend he didn't see it.
"What you mean has nothing to do with me.
If the First Knight really betrays the empire, then I have to make preparations.
Also, your church has proven its incompetence in the case of John.
That guy has now become a heretic, and he is the one who led the army to invade Morris Territory."
This was the first time that Natalie made no move to refute Lorn's scolding.
But Lorne was not happy at all, because this showed that the first knight might really be working for the heresy.
The daughter is very defenseless.
How powerful her father is, Lorne really doesn't want to try it.
"It was our mistake on John's part, and the First Knight you mentioned did not betray the empire."
He said so, but Natalie's expression was completely different.
Just when Lorne was about to express his objection, the Paladin The chief revealed the answer.
"Because Hodelpendra was a heretic from the beginning."
This is really exciting news.
You must know that although the Pendra family is not an ancient family inherited from the Dark Ages, their history is not short.
Lorne didn't know the origins of the Pendra family, but he was certain of one thing.
"Glory City is only a force that has risen in the past hundred years, but the Pendra family has a history of hundreds of years.
How can you be heretics?"
As he spoke, Lorne and Natalie distanced themselves a little, but since Natalie would appear here, it proved that she was not in league with the heretics.
The next words of the Paladin Captain also answered Lorne's doubts.
"I just said that Hodel Pendra was a heretic, and I didn't say that the Pendra family was related to heretics.
In the final analysis, he relied on the power of the wizard to become the first knight.
We were all deceived by him, and everything was a premeditated conspiracy by those heretics."
By saying this, Lorne understood that it was very abnormal for Hodelpendra to be able to overwhelm the entire empire and become the best in the world with his own personal strength.
Saying that he borrowed the wizard's power would make everything clear.
Because even Natalie relied on her body skills to increase her combat effectiveness, and the first knight could actually use his sublimated combat energy to fly in the air.
It sounds very suspicious, but it's a pity that Lorne failed to meet him and expose his tricks.
All he can do now is think about how to guard against such an assassin.

"So, Prince Bruce was deceived by him and fell into the hands of the heretics.
This is troublesome.
The heretics' delay in revealing the true identity of the First Knight must be to give us a fatal blow at the critical moment."
Listening to Lorne's analysis, Natalie focused her attention on the man in front of her again.
Because Lorne really told the truth, Prince Bruce was indeed tricked into the hands of the heretics by her father.
There are also heretics who have delayed revealing the true identity of the First Knight, and the purpose is indeed as Lorne said, to give them a fatal blow.
Moreover, this blow directly knocked Keira to the point where she could hardly get up, which was the fundamental reason why she came to Lorne for reinforcements.
The idol of the entire empire turned out to be a spy for the enemy.
Lorne had asked Natalie why the empire's soldiers did not take action.
The reason was not that there was no action, but that the empire's army had been defeated long ago because of her father.
Lorne knew nothing and figured everything out just from his imagination.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Without the imperial army, they could only rely on the capable but extremely shameless man in front of them.
But that's not what Lorne was concerned about.
The fatal blow he was talking about was only about his own life safety.
"Does your father have what you have?
If he comes to assassinate me, how should I respond?"
Not afraid of shame, Lorne asked Natalie.
In fact, Lorne is not the only one who is worried about this issue.
Kayla also has the same concerns.
Of course, the Pope is not worried about the First Knight coming to assassinate her, but like Lorne, she is also worried about the heresy assassinating Lorne.
That's why Natalie came to this negotiation in person, and the Paladin leader shouldered more than just negotiation tasks.
"Hodelpendra has great power, but because of this, he disdains the ability to sneak.
If he comes to assassinate you, he will never be able to avoid the eyes and ears of your men like me.
And if he makes any move, I will take action to subdue him. " It turns out that Natalie has been staying in the north in order to catch her traitorous father.
Unfortunately, the other party did not come to assassinate him, but instead attacked the Morris family first.
Of course, with the help of muskets and cannons.
If the Li family really wants to assassinate him, the difficulty cannot be said to be easy.
He was even more anxious to find out the power of those firearms, and Lorne didn't care whether Natalie was his bodyguard or not.
"Let's not talk about whether you can subdue him.
The muskets and cannons in the hands of those heretics are the real threat.
You write to Keira immediately.
I want her to release the Stuart family members to me immediately, as well as the ones you captured.
I also want a copy of the weapons to study their functions clearly:
