Volume 1 The Prince of Tomb Robbers IX. A New Life in the Court

The menu was served quickly, with five large plates, from marinated grilled steaks, to snowflakes wrapped in a sweet sauce, to the delicious caviar mixture, and two dishes that I didn't recognize, but they were in excellent condition and tasted great.

Finally, there is a special liquor, called Solgi, which is a bit like wine, but the taste is a bit sour, and the alcohol concentration is higher than that of ordinary wines.

This meal is really a wolf-gobbling and wind-swept cloud.

After eating and drinking, I wiped my mouth and hoped that there would be a better show below.

At this moment, a group of men came up to me, led by a guy in uniform, with his collar raised high and his hat wide-brimmed.

The look of his eyebrows made me suddenly change from feeling good to being scared.

Do you have to pay? I thought, this is terrible, eating and drinking for nothing, without money, don't you have to lose your body?

I looked pitifully in the direction of Vimore, hoping for an explanation.

The strong man in uniform, with his head up, deliberately showing off his beard, shouted at me: "You are a criminal, why did you break into here, you should be put to death!"

His eyes widened and he looked terrifying.

As soon as I got nervous, the spoon in my hand fell to the ground.

Two people came next to me, knocked me down on the table, and handcuffed me with special iron locks.

Their iron locks resemble the shackles worn by ancient prisoners in the past, and even their necks are handcuffed.

This thing is made of iron, heavy, and not at all comfortable to wear.

They dragged me out of the restaurant, and the two sisters never showed up.

I thought to myself, "It's over, I'm afraid I'm going to have a severed head and I'm going to die!

I was dragged by them, through the house, to the door of a large house.

The house was three stories high, with one eaves on top of each other, and it was spectacular.

They open the door.

The strong man in uniform led me and walked in.

He ordered me to kneel.

I had to kneel.

The kneeling position is actually a little more comfortable, I thought.

It's a little dark and a little quiet inside.

The atmosphere remained quiet for more than ten minutes. During this time, I tried to scratch the itch on the top of my head, but it was very difficult to do so.

"If you don't catch it, it'll fall off in a while anyway, it's the same whether you catch it or not!"

"Is that him?" a voice suddenly asked, breaking the silence.

The robust man in uniform bowed and replied, "It's him." ”

"Okay, you can go. The voice said.

The strong man in uniform waved his hand behind him, and then quickly left.

The door closed silently at the back, and the room didn't get darker, which made me suspect that there was a hidden light source at work.

"I've investigated all your details. The man said.

It was a young man's voice, crisp but slightly lacking in breath.

I didn't say anything.

After a while, he said, "You are a tomb robber named Luved, twenty-one years old, belonging to the village of Shenaki, of the Bebupu tribe, and a very inferior person. ”

He told me where I came from, but I didn't know anything about the past, because I had traveled back in time.

"You can be hanged for the crime of robbing a tomb alone. He said.

I didn't say anything, but I can assure you that this man must be somewhere hidden, watching my reaction.

After a few moments, he said, "I am Prince Hochlan, and the first in line to the throne of this empire. You can beg me for mercy, beg me to forgive you. ”

I was stunned for a moment, and thought to myself, Prince, there is a prince talking to me, is this the prince that Leinda is talking about?

I remember she said that this kid is the future supreme leader of the country.

I couldn't help arching my body and said, "Your Royal Highness, please forgive me. ”

"A good man doesn't suffer immediate losses, as long as he can be free!" I thought to myself.

Hodglan coughed twice and said, "Actually, your sins are very serious, and it is very difficult to forgive you. ”

After a pause, he continued, "The rabbit you ate is not an ordinary rabbit, it is a sacred relic of the gods, and it is Princess Sarah's favorite pet. ”

"Moreover, you have committed the felony of grave robbery, resisted law enforcement, and used insidious spells, which are enough to sentence you to death more than three times. If you are punished for several crimes, you will be punished with axes, burning, and skinning. ”

Hearing him say that, I really felt that the problem was serious.

"But if you can swear absolute allegiance to me, you shall not do anything without my will. I will help you, forgive all your sins, and leave you with this lowly life. ”

After hearing him say these words, I let out a long breath and said, "I swear that I will not do anything without your will. ”

"Against my will, I can put you to death at any time. "Hodglan didn't forget to continue to threaten me in order to enhance the effect of controlling me.

"I will not dare to disobey your will, Your Royal Highness. I said.

I try to be as loyal as possible, because my life is in the hands of others.

Footsteps sounded, a bright light appeared in the dark room, and a man stood in front of me.

He turned out to be just a man, and he didn't follow anyone behind him.

I looked up and saw a man in a blue and white striped outfit standing in front of me smiling.

This man is kind and kind-hearted, and his appearance is very familiar.

It occurred to me that this person looked like me in the mirror, just slightly fat.

He was as young as I was, but his face was not very good, as if he was sleepless, and his eyes were a little blank.

He looked to the side and said to himself, "I should change his name, I must change his name." ”

He pointed at me and said, "Your name is Roma, and that should be a good name." ”

I later learned that the boy had a hound with the same name.

It doesn't matter what he tells me, what matters is that I don't have to live in fear from now on.

I didn't expect that some day after that, I would lose my freedom completely.

On Hodchland's orders, I had to be subjected to the ravages of various courses.

Many teachers took turns to teach me about geography, shipping, finance, religion, and military affairs.

I was asked to learn court etiquette and how to get along with various dignitaries.

Through my studies, I learned that this world is made up of five countries, and the country I am in now is called Seles, her state religion is Kaitaiji, and the color of the country is blue.

The Kingdom of Seles is an island nation surrounded by the sea.

To the north of her, there is the larger, more populous kingdom of Mechidi, whose state religion is also Kaitaiji, and the color of the country is green.

The Kingdom of the Mechi Emperor is also an island nation.

Because of the similarity of ethnic identities between the kingdoms of Celes and the kingdom of Mechidi, the royal family intermarried for generations, forming an unbreakable alliance to resist the pressure from the Galayd Empire.

Located northeast of Celes, the Gallede Empire is the largest of the five kingdoms and twice as large as Celes and Merchidi combined, making it more of a continent than an island nation.

The Galayd Empire also practiced the Kaitaiji religion, and the color of worship was red.

In the southeast of the Garede Empire, there was a kingdom called Benham, the smallest of the five kingdoms, only two-thirds the size of Seles, whose state religion was druid, and the color she admired was white.

In the north of the whole world, there is the snow-covered kingdom of Brihem, which believes in the Romans cult and worships black.

Countries that believe in the Kaitaiji religion regard the Romanmonian cult as a cult, and for hundreds of years, because of the different beliefs, there have been many wars between the southern countries and the northern Brehem Empire.

There is a strange phenomenon that I learned later, the most recent queens of the Galaede Empire are all from Brihem.

The current king of the kingdom of Seles is named Rodessa, who has been in office for twenty-one years and belongs to the royal family of Hobbes.

Hodglan is his only son, and he also has a daughter, the aforementioned Princess Sarah.

Rhodesa was seriously ill by this time.

Rodesa also had a cousin named Warlingford.

Warrin died more than two years ago, otherwise he would have been the biggest obstacle to Hodglan's succession.

However, Wallingford's two sons, Hodgland's two cousins, were still able to control part of the army, posing a threat to Hochlan's future exercise of kingship.

In addition to learning all kinds of knowledge and understanding all kinds of relationships, I was also asked to learn fencing and equestrianism.

After three months, I gradually settled into court life, and became fatter and fatter, and more similar in appearance to Hodglan.
