Chapter 55: Turning danger into safety

After entering the private room, Sunderland asked Roger suspiciously: "I don't know your honorable name. Who is the member of the royal family?"

"My name is Roger, not a member of the royal family! But Princess Jessica and I are classmates from Enpei Magic Academy, and this token was given to me by Princess Jessica. She said that this token can be used to seek protection from the City Guards." Roger honestly told the origin of the token, otherwise Sunderland would have suspected that the token was stolen.

At this time, Sunderland's face immediately became unstable. From Roger's expression and tone, he had already judged that what he said should be true. This shows that the young man in front of him has a close relationship with Princess Jessica. If he told Princess Jessica after he went back, he would probably not be able to afford it.

Otherwise, let’s kill someone to silence me? Anyway, except myself, the soldiers and mercenaries in the hotel do not know what the token is from. However, so many people in the bar have seen this. Although others don’t know that the token is a royal token, there will always be people saying that someone has shown a blue token here. When Princess Jessica will track it down, it will be too much for the paper to keep it.

Roger observed his face for a while, and saw Sunderland's eyes sometimes showing fierce light, and sometimes he fell into deep thought, and guessed what he was thinking. So Roger decided to scare him.

Roger pretended to be very calm and said, "Originally, Princess Jessica and I discussed going to the Mist Forest Trial together, but you also know that the princess has prepared a lot of things to do when she leaves the palace in a very short dress, so he asked me to wait for her and the court guards who accompanied her in Elams City first. I guess they will arrive in the next few days."

After hearing this, Sunderland felt nervous and thought to himself that this kid and Princess Jessica had made an appointment to go together. After the princess and her group arrived in Elams, they would not see that the kid would definitely pursue it everywhere. Not to mention the mercenaries in the hotel, even their subordinates would inevitably tell the princess that they had seen Roger. When others talked about the incident, it would be basically impossible for them to cover up the matter."

Thinking of this, Sunderland's face suddenly slowed down and apologized to Roger: "Little Brother Roger, I'm sorry! I don't know what happened, but I was deceived by Deselli's fat man. Since the little brother is a classmate and good friend of His Royal Highness the Princess, how could he be a thief? I'll arrest the fat man and teach him a lesson!"

"Oh, there's no need for this. I probably have a misunderstanding." Roger seemed very generous. In fact, he had already estimated that even if Sunderland was like taking the fat man named Deselly into prison today, he would probably release the person as soon as he left tomorrow. It would be better to let Sunderland and the fat man relax their vigilance first and then punish them later.

"Oh, it's rare that Roger's little brother is so magnanimous, I really admire him!" Sunderland breathed a sigh of relief. He was actually worried. He had collected all the money, but he wanted to arrest Deselli and go to prison. The fat man might have to secretly say that he didn't do anything after taking the money. This way his face would be too bad.

"Then this matter? Master Commander, look..." Roger asked as if he pretended to be embarrassed.

"Don't worry! This matter is left to me, you don't have to worry!" Sunderland patted his chest and promised.

Although the people from Baresi and Deselli in the bar were still tense, under the guards' eye, both sides knew that it was impossible to fight again. However, the expressions of the people on both sides looked worried.

After a while, Roger and Sunderland came out with their shoulders together. When Desellie saw that Sunderland was so close to Roger, she suddenly felt a little cold and secretly screamed that something was wrong.

Sure enough, Sunderland scolded Deselly and told him to take the people to get out quickly. At the same time, he quietly returned the bag of coins to Deselly. Roger saw it and felt that Sunderland had some principles of being a human being. If he had not accomplished his money, he would return the money to others. This is much better than many corrupt officials in his previous life.

Deselly glared at Roger hatefully, and he also realized that Roger must be a person with some identity, otherwise Sunderland would not treat him like this. He looked at Nya, swallowed his saliva suddenly, and said angrily: "Let's go!"

Seeing Deselly leaving in shame, Sunderland asked with a smile on his face, "Brother Roger, should you arrange a hotel for you and your friends to stay in! I believe it must be much more comfortable than the place you find yourself."

"Then I'll be the leader!" Roger did not refuse. He knew very well that if he refused at this time, Sunderland would have a strange intention.

"Okay! Then please let Brother Roger and your friends go with us for a short walk." After that, Sunderland led the city guard soldiers around him to clear the way in front and took Roger and others to the Elams Hotel to stay.

*********************************************************************

"Roger, what is the blue token you took out? I saw that the commander immediately seemed to have changed his own person when he saw the token, and was very good to us all at once." As soon as he settled in the Elams Hotel, Nya couldn't wait to ask.

"Oh, it was Jessica who gave me the royal token. The order holder can seek protection from the City Guards. So Sunderland dared not do anything to us." Roger briefly said the origin of the token.

"Brother Roger. You are so amazing! Princess Jessica will use such a precious token. It seems that it will take sooner or later for you to become successful in the future!" Baresi and others said enviously.

"Hey, it depends on yourself whether you can make a fortune or not... But we finally survived a crisis." Roger didn't want to bother with this issue.
