Governor 3

"Maybe we'll have to wait a bit longer. What's wrong... are you homesick?"

Instructor Nora was wiping her shield and longsword with an oilcloth, smiling as she spoke to Roy.

"I just want to get him back to Castleton as soon as possible," Roy said, glancing at Abbott beside the large chest at the tent entrance.

Abbott is currently tied to a large tree, Roy will lock him in Wooden Box at night.

Roy rummaged through Abbott's Magic Pouch and found a number of sea charts. He discovered that this guy was really a fanatic. In order to obtain Captain Freire's treasure, he had studied the entire Endless Sea and kept at least two or three hundred sea charts.

Roy really wanted to ask Abbott if Captain Ferrell's treasure had been found.

But after thinking about it, Roy decided against it. Many things are caused by greed, and Roy didn't want to get caught up in it too.

Abbott's eyes were vacant, and he looked like a dead man. He didn't shout or make a sound. He just sat under the tree in a daze every day. Only Sabrina would bring Abbott an apple every morning and evening to make sure he wouldn't starve.

Roy thought it best to bring him back to Castleton as soon as possible.

However, the Negotiation Team will not leave the Bulwark Village until they reach a conclusion.

At this moment, three Silver Pegasus Elf Warrior walked up to Roy's tent, looked at Abbott tied to the tree, and tried to take him away.

Roy quickly put down the roasted pineapple and ran over.

The Elf Warrior said to Roy, "We must take this prisoner away."

"He's not Slave Traders; he's a wanted criminal I've captured, involved in a murder case in Castleton City. I'm going to bring him back to Castleton City," Roy said. "His arrest warrant is still hanging on the walls of the various Guard Squad in Castleton City."

The Elf Warrior hesitated upon hearing Roy's words.

"But the orders from above are that all the prisoners here must be held together and escorted by us," the Elf Warrior said.

At this moment, the instructors also came over from the campfire and explained to the Elf Warrior, "This Half-Elf was once Priest of the Goddess of Freedom Temple, and it is up to Priest of the Goddess of Freedom Temple to judge him."

The Elf Warrior still disagreed, saying, "But there are no Priest here..."

Instructor Nora pushed Roy forward and said to the Elf Warrior, "Roy is Priest of the Goddess of Freedom Temple. He is taking Abbott back to the Goddess of Freedom Temple in Castleton. You have no right to interfere."

The Elf Warrior still refused to leave.

Roy could only run back to his tent, put on his brand-new Priest's robe, and come out again, saying to the Elf Warrior, "Now you should believe me, he's just a fugitive wanted criminal. I'm going to take him back to Castleton City. He's not with those Slave Traders."

"Go back now. I'll explain anything to Captain Terrence if there are any problems," Miss Christine said as she stepped out of the tent to the three Elf Warrior.

"Yes, Miss Christine."

The three Elf Warrior clearly knew Miss Christine's identity, and when they saw her come out to intervene, they turned and left.

The next morning, Roy was practicing the divine spell ' Wisdom Blessing ' in the woods when Instructor Nora called out to him from the edge of the camp, "Roy... Roy... We've been notified that you need to attend the negotiations..."

"Knew."

Roy quickly walked back to the tent to change into the guards' standard armor.

I remember that during the first two days of the negotiations, Roy was wearing this armor, standing with the Elf Warrior of the Guard Squad.

"No need to change into standard armor, they said it's for you to attend today's peace talks..." Instructor Nora said, chasing after Roy.

Roy, dressed in ordinary leather armor with a Holy Scepter hanging from his waist, turned to Instructor Nora and asked, "So... should I wear this to the peace talks?"

"Whatever... I just said not to wear your uniform." Instructor Nora waved her hand at him.

Roy, completely bewildered, ran to the Negotiation Team to report...

This time, Captain Terrence didn't assign Roy to the guard, but instead had him follow behind the negotiator...

Led by Earl Griffin, the Negotiation Team arrived at the Command Post the Reversal Army.

Roy was about to stand guard outside when Earl Griffin, standing at the entrance of the Command Post, beckoned to Roy and said, "Roy, come with me for a moment."

Roy hurriedly followed Earl Griffin into the Command Post...

The Rebel Army Command Post was extremely dirty and messy; the only clean thing in the entire room was the negotiating table.

The room even smelled musty...

The Rebel Army negotiators were already seated at the negotiating table.

The Silver Moon Elf negotiators sat on the other side of the square table. After everyone was seated, the room became quiet, and the atmosphere suddenly became very tense.

After talking for so many days, everyone has already figured out each other's bottom line and requirements.

Regarding this peace talks, almost all the treaties have been agreed upon, except for the selection of the governor of the newly built town, on which the two sides have failed to reach a consensus...

Roy was seated on a row of benches right next to the door.

Sitting with him were several Rebel Army officers, who all looked at Roy with curiosity.

Negotiations begin.

Earl Griffin spoke first:

"For the past two days, we have been unable to reach a consensus on the candidate for governor of New Bulwark Town. Yesterday, your side made some concessions, indicating that the candidate for governor would be any other than Silver Moon Elf. Therefore, I have brought the candidate for governor today."

Everyone was watching Earl Griffin, Earl Griffin turned to Roy was somewhat distracted, and said, "Roy, come here for a moment."

Roy quickly stood up, walked to the negotiating table, looked at Earl Griffin with a blank expression, and said, "Your Earl, did you call me?"

Earl Griffin nodded, then pointed to Roy and said to the Rebel Army negotiators, "This is Roy, the candidate for mayor of Rampart Town. He is a Half-Elf, and I think he fits your requirements for a mayoral candidate."

The Rebel Army negotiators sitting across the long table were somewhat dumbfounded at this moment.

They considered that the Silver Moon Elf Negotiation Team might appoint a Dark Moon Elf or Wood Elf as the governor of Rampart Town, but finding a suitable candidate could take up to a month.

It's somewhat unexpected that the Silver Moon Elf negotiators have now brought in a Half-Elf.

"But...but he is a Half-Elf, and so young. He should never have served as governor. We have reason to doubt whether he is capable of the job..." a Rebel Army official immediately voiced his doubts.

Earl Griffin scoffed, "Back then, you were the ones who asked us to find an elf who wasn't a Silver Moon Elf to serve as the governor of Rampart Town. Now, you're the ones who are questioning whether this young Half-Elf is capable of serving as governor. I think you have no sincerity whatsoever in the peace talks!"

"..."

When Roy heard what Earl Griffin said, his mind went blank. At first, he thought he had misheard, but after hearing the last few sentences, he realized that he was being asked to take on the role of governor of Rampart Town. But... none of you asked me, okay?
