Chapter 174 You...! (4/4)
"Ah... this."
Kroeber hadn't expected that a dignified Earth Knight could be so nervous that he couldn't even hold a water cup.
This made him laugh.
However, in order to improve Shirley's favorability, he still pretended to be concerned and walked forward, trying to wipe off the water stains on her body with his hands.
In fact, with the physique of the Earth Knight, a mere boiled water would not hurt them at all, so how could they be injured by a small cup of boiled water.
But Frank, the second son of the little noble played by Kroeber, would not know about this kind of thing.
So this gave him the opportunity to get close to Shirley Blue Flame Grass.
He pretended to wipe the water stains for Shirley, but in fact he was confirming whether the female knight was carrying weapons on her body.
After he pretended to search, he finally confirmed that the female knight did not bring weapons to see him, and only had a thin knight's uniform on her body.
"Uh... am I taking advantage of someone?"
At this time, Krober just realized that he took advantage of the water on someone's clothes and searched here and there, which seemed to be a suspicion of taking advantage of someone.
But Krober always treated Shirley Blue Flame Grass as an enemy in his heart. He would not have such a mentality. The enemy is the enemy. You have to do what you should do. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you may pay the price of your life.
But after confirming that Shirley had no weapons, Krober let down his guard.
After all, his combat power is here, and Shirley, the Earth Knight, can't pose a big threat to him.
The only thing he is worried about now is the possibility that there may be another Earth Knight in the Blue Flame Grass family.
Although he will kill two Earth Knights, if one of them tries to intercept and the other runs away, he can't stop him.
And this goes against Krober's original intention of hiding the truth.
The purpose of Krober's mission was to sweep away the wealth and supplies of the Blue Flame Grass Family and use them to supplement the financial problems within the Golden Grand Duchy.
But this matter must not be known to those guys in the Duke of Edwin, or in other words, no evidence should be left for them.
If the Saint Gold Castle sent troops openly, it would definitely be noticed by the spies hidden in the Saint Gold Castle.
In this case, the requirement of secrecy could not be met.
And Krober chose to split the whole into parts and let the members of the Dragon Breath Knights disguise themselves as refugees to leave Saint Gold Castle.
Among them, Krober also took into account their outstanding appearance, so he deliberately used some means to make them look more like refugees from the outside.
Back to the topic, after confirming that Shirley was no longer a threat, Krober relaxed his vigilance.
But Shirley was not as relaxed as Krober at this time.
"What is he...doing?"
Feeling Kroeber's big hands wandering on her body, the warm touch on every inch of her skin would make her feel numb, as if an electric current was flowing through her body.
Her heartbeat began to speed up, and her breathing became rapid.
She wanted to struggle, but found that her body was so soft that she couldn't exert any strength at this time.
Kroeber's hands became more and more wanton. He began to touch her cheeks, neck and shoulders, and then gradually moved down, through her clothes, touching her soft skin.
(I know you don't like to read the rest, so I won't write it. Also, who said I can't write this kind of thing? Take it out and shoot it!)
All this was Shirley's illusion. In fact, Kroeber just wanted to check if she had any close-fitting weapons on her body.
He didn't touch her so many places, but Shirley was too nervous and had an illusion.
"Be gentle!"
Shirley was startled by her own voice. Her original voice was calm and serious, but the voice she uttered now was inexplicably full of charm.
These three simple words, after she said it, turned into a coquettish expression between young lovers, which made her feel a little shy.
"I'm very sorry, Lady Shirley, I'm so rude."
Kroeber pretended to be terrified and hurriedly left Shirley's side and kept apologizing.
Shirley felt a little lonely after feeling that the hand that had just been on her had left her.
"You... don't say that!"
Shirley blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Kroeber's eyes. Her voice was a little shy and nervous, like a young girl who had just fallen in love.
Kroeber looked at Shirley's lovely appearance, and an impulse surged in his heart, but he still resisted and didn't show it.
(The impulse of the plan being successful)
He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then smiled and said to Shirley:
"Sirley, you are really beautiful!"
Hearing this, Shirley's face became even redder. She bit her lips slightly and whispered:
"Thank you for your compliment, but... I still hope you don't call me "sir" in the future. I allow you to call me by my name directly."
Krober nodded to show that he understood.
The atmosphere between the two became a little subtle, but Shirley was just nervous, and Krober was thinking about how to pry the information he wanted from her mouth.
And this subtlety lasted for more than a minute.
Unexpectedly, it was Shirley who took the initiative to break this awkward scene.
"Mr. Frank, you are not a simple choir leader, right?"
When these words came out, Kroeber's pupils shrank, and the muscles on his body subconsciously tightened instantly, and even his momentum became fierce.
"Sure enough, Mr. Frank is not a simple person."
After feeling the change in Kroeber's momentum, Shirley thought to herself that it was true.
"When did you find out?"
Kroeber thought that his performance just now was very normal, even excellent, and he simply played Shirley. Blue Flame Grass in the palm of his hand.
So he was puzzled, how did Shirley find out?
Unexpectedly, after hearing Kroeber's question, Shirley's face turned red again.
"You don't need to know why, answer my question, who are you?"
Kroeber ignored Shirley's question. He was observing what changes had happened to Shirley that caused her to suddenly become enlightened.
He subconsciously sniffed and found that the humidity in the originally dry room suddenly increased a little, and it was filled with an inexplicable smell.
"You...!!"
Krober looked at Shirley Blue Flame Grass in disbelief. He found that this matter seemed a little beyond his expectations.
"Shut up!!"
Feeling Krober's gaze, the ashamed and angry Shirley quickly raised her hand to stop Krober from blurting out the words.
