V

Ren du Lot shivered. Count Branleur, whose first name was Geussuizain, had called him and asked him to visit him immediately. They were now in Count B's office. How will the Count take it when Ren tells him that he could not sue? Because there was no proof that Torundel was shitposting.

However, Ren du Lot should not have been so worried, as the first thing Count B said was:

Forget about the lawsuit. Torundel is now my friend after I bought myself his wife.

After that the Count seemed slightly incoherent, speaking about a woman named Vild Viola that almost severed her hand, about a guy named Toby that was playing the strupaxe and finally about a silver machine, that he did not describe in detail.

Ren du Lot was quite happy to be off the hook for the lawsuit and let the Count speak for almost an hour; he was the customer and the time Ren du Lot was listening to him increased the invoice that he will send later.

At last, the Count stopped talking. He got up and signaled Ren du Lot to follow him. They went down to the basement, and through a corridor with several prison cells on each side.

Ren du Lot shivered.
