But Sophia was obviously not so easy to pass, she twisted her thin shoulders, pouted and said, "Let's go eat in the street, I heard that the snack street here is very lively at night." ”

"But it's going to be three blocks, and I don't know if there's any time. Philip tries to persuade his girlfriend to have a whim.

"Go, go~~~" Sophia, who had turned into a haunting kitten, dragged his arm and shook it back and forth, and the coquettish sound from her throat made Philip surrender quickly.

pinched the other party's little nose dotingly, and then wrapped her around the shawl and walked out.

The two of them had just walked outside the gate, and before they could ask the doorman of the clubhouse for directions, suddenly a dark shadow rushed out from under the eaves across the street and rushed straight to Sophia.

Philip saw the dark shadow out of the corner of his eye, but he didn't pay much attention to it, just subconsciously blocked the girl's body behind him.

Sure enough, the shadow was stopped by Paul halfway through and let out a terrible scream, while Calitan was in full armor to block Sophia's other side.

I don't know where these two super bodyguards have been hiding before, they have come and gone without a trace, and this long night of lonely men and widows will hide in some corner to do something embarrassing.

Although Kalitan is not as burly as a woman, because of the level of awakening, her face has always remained very young, and if she takes off the armor that has not left her body for thousands of years, she is also a beauty.

He still has the heart to maliciously speculate about the affair of the two bodyguards here, just because the 'sneak attacker' doesn't look powerful, and it can even be said that he has a strong belly.

He was put down on the cold stone road by Paul in just one shot, and his neck was tightly pressed by Paul's knees, and he couldn't even scream, he could only make a "grunt, snort" sound from his throat, his face was red, and he didn't know if it was painful or wanted to justify.

Philip waved away the security guards at the door of the clubhouse, leaving Kalitan to protect Sophia, while he himself stepped forward to take a closer look at the alleged sneak attacker.

Lying on the ground and struggling, this blue-blue coat had been washed and white, and his body was dry and thin, and if his hands and feet were not clean, he would definitely be mistaken for a begging child.

As an aside, this holy city in the south is good everywhere, but there are a little more beggars, and even the city management doesn't bother to care about them.

Little beggars like this child, there are not ten on the whole street, there are always five or six.

It was clearly a misunderstanding, but it was just a hungry beggar, not some bullshit assassin.

Paul was aware of the problem and relaxed a little, but still pressed the other man's arms tightly behind his back.

There is no way, there are too many weird abilities in this world, so it's better to be cautious, not to mention that Philip hasn't been attacked on the street that looks the least like an assassination.

Philip bent down slightly, and sure enough, it was a child, who looked less than 16 years old, and his thin body was obviously due to lack of nutrition, and his clothes looked empty.

Motioning for Paul to relax, and as soon as the knee lifted his neck from his neck, the child gasped violently like a fish that had come to life, and let out a cough.

The originally clean and slightly delicate face became dirty and embarrassed because of the mixed tears, snot and dirt on the ground.

But he still wiped his face, and said very quickly: "I have no ill intentions, I just want to meet with Her Royal Highness the Princess, I have something to talk to her." ”

Oh, it's funny, a little beggar on the street was ashamed to want to talk to a noble princess, and Philip didn't know whether to laugh at the child's innocence or ridiculousness.

If it weren't Paul tonight and a different guard, he would probably be out of place in the first second he came running.

Perhaps sensing the meaning in Philip's eyes, the child aloud argued, "I'm not a beggar, my name is William Lovegood Sun, and I live four blocks away in the cobbler's quarter." ”

It dawned on Philippe that the cobbler's quarter was one of the famous slums in the city of Flogen.

But interestingly, according to some of the common knowledge about the city that Peter gave him, almost none of the beggars on the streets, regardless of their ethnicity, came from that district.

It seems that the people in that area are very different, even though they are already poor, but they still stick to some bottom lines, do not steal, do not beg, and do not improve their embarrassing lives through cheating.

Except for being a little poorer, the people there sound more noble and pure than more than half of the people in this world, which is really interesting.

As the child wiped his cat-like face clean, the coverall, which did not hide much from the cold, revealed a face that was unusually familiar to Philip, especially the long, pointed ears and pale blonde hair that resembled Philip.

This is a half-breed, a descendant of the Gemini and Ward races, and the racial traits of the two races blend harmoniously in his body, not to mention the extremely racially distinctive surname.

No wonder she is so dry and thin, even Sophia is a little stronger than him.

Such a half-breed may be very rare in the Wardsman Empire, but it is not uncommon in the relatively open Wardleiman Empire and the Wardkud Empire, so it seems that it is not surprising to see such a mixed-race child in this holy city in the south of the continent.

"So Mr. Sun, what do you want to find Sophia? Maybe I can convey it on my behalf?"

Philip was a lot more polite, not only because he looked a little kind, but also because his mother in his previous life was surnamed Sun, which meant that he loved the house and Wu.

But it was clear that the kid didn't know him, and was a little angry at his suspicions and the terrifyingly fast bodyguard behind him.

"I would like to speak to Her Royal Highness the Princess in person, I have been waiting here for a night and I have something very important to say. ”

The three 'I''s in a row' showed the eagerness of the other party, and Philip was finally convinced that the child really had no ill intentions, but just wanted to see Sophia for some purpose.

Considering his background and obviously not very optimistic economic situation, I am afraid that asking for a sum of money is his ultimate goal.

At this moment, Sophia also walked over under the escort of Kalitan, and as she approached, the boy's face clearly showed nervousness, excitement, joy, hesitation, and other emotions, which rose and fell.

"I heard that someone wanted to see me, so this one... Mr. Sun?"

In any world, in any era, it is not easy for a young man living at the bottom of society to meet a real imperial princess.

It may be okay to take a look from afar, satisfy your curiosity, and become a capital to brag about in the future, but if you want to communicate face-to-face and express what you want to express in complete and detail, this can usually only appear in a more fantasy book.

Just like it is now.

Not to mention whether they can pass the blockade of those powerful and vigilant guards, even if they do get the opportunity to face it head-on, I am afraid that the vast majority of people will stutter, lose their words, or even be unable to speak due to excessive tension and excitement.

But fortunately, William did not do this, he used his persistence to wait for nearly 4 hours in the cold wind that was not much warm in the early spring in exchange for this slim opportunity, and the cruel encounter made him really have no room to retreat.

If he waits any longer, he will lose the last relative in the world.

"Yes, Your Highness Princess Sophia, I have something to ask you for. ”

Sophia glanced at the young man on the other side who was trembling in the cold eyes of the cold wind and the two guards, and asked with a smile, "Well, since you have been waiting here for a long time, then your wish has come true, and now you can speak, William." ”

Although Philip didn't know why his little girlfriend would look at this little beggar-like boy differently, he was obviously so weak that he was leaning on his arms because of hunger (gluttony + coquettishness) just now.

So he also cheered up, and watched with great interest what this young man, who had been prepared for both conversation and spirit, wanted to say.

William swallowed nervously, and at the same time kept his voice from being hoarse because of dry hair: "It was the people from the Hall of Heroes who told me the news that you will be here this evening, so I came over in the afternoon and stayed under the eaves on the opposite side. ”

"You're from the Hall of Heroes, so why don't you just come in? There was no threshold set for this meeting. Philip interrupted.

William hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "No, no, no, you misunderstood, I am not from the Hall of Heroes, or not for the time being.

However, I signed up for last year's audition, but for some reason I didn't make it.

Mr. Joseph, who was in charge of the assessment, also felt very sorry, so I will register again this fall, and Mr. Joseph even waived the registration fee for me.

He was a kind and good man. ”

"So you're awake, how old are you?" asked Philip again, he already had a rough idea of why the princess's little girlfriend was interested in the little one.

Sophia, who has opened her eyes, seems to have a slightly special collector's habit because of her abilities, and is always much more tolerant and generous to young people who seem to be extremely talented and obviously have great potential.

At least in the months since I came to the Southeast, I have three or four more young new faces around me.

Fortunately, women are the majority of these new faces, otherwise Philip would really have a bit of a strange idea.

Hearing this question, the thin and short William seemed to have some confidence, and said in a firm tone that did not match his appearance: "Yes, I have been awakened for almost a year, and I just turned 17 last month.

I'm anxious to find Princess Sophia, and it has something to do with my abilities.

To be precise, I want to take refuge in you, and I heard that there will be court priests around the royal family, so I would like to recommend myself, and I am confident that I will pass any assessment. ”
