Chapter 5: The Council of the Princes
In the House of the Rafat family, a very important meeting was going on at this time. As long as the important members of the family were already present in the imperial capital, even Saius, who had seen Locks and Johns a few days ago, was among them, but he was the only one standing.
Saius, who has not had any lofty ideals and ambitions since he was a child, just wants to live a free life of drunken dreams all day long. Although Saius was a direct member of the Rafat family and the great-grandson of the head of the family, Iguzast, he never imagined that he would inherit the throne of the patriarch of the family, so he was the least noticed among other contemporaries.
Zhilu Dao himself was already a basically abandoned child in the family, so Saius didn't care about the affairs of the national group at all. But at this time, Saius, who was inexplicably called to the council hall, stood very obediently in front of the head of the family and several elders, he thought that he didn't know when he offended some powerful person, and now he has found a family teacher to ask for guilt.
Looking at Saius, who was standing in front of him like a child who had done something wrong, the head of the family, Iguzast, sighed helplessly. Although he has done a lot of bad things, he will not have such a tireless great-grandson, which is really the misfortune of the Lafat family.
Iguzast asked Saius, "Didn't you see two people outside the main gate of our house a few days ago, one of them is the butler of the Minks family, and the other is the most descendant of the Minks family. Well...... Seems to be called a boy from Locks. ”
"Yes. Grandpa. I did meet these two men. Saius immediately replied with a proper attitude: "Grandpa, he is indeed called Locks, that is, the kid who specially left a small life back then." ”
"Oh, I remember." Iguzast pondered: "I still let them leave that kid's life behind, just to let him take a good look at how our Lafat family history has encroached on their Minks family's power little by little. ”
A thick-eyed man to the left of Iguzast interrupted, "Big brother, now is not the time to say that these things don't matter. According to the news from the palace, His Majesty the King has already put that little trick into the palace, and I don't know what the reason for the fall of the road is really incomprehensible. ”
"Third brother, I know the truth." Iguzast turned around and said, "It's not like looking at this uncompetitive little rabbit cub, it's really not a good feeling in my heart. ”
"Ah......," sighed a shrewd and capable man to the right of Iguzast, "isn't it, I don't think it's a good taste to see how Saius looks." After all, he is a descendant of our Lafat family, and he can't be dealt with casually. If it were another child, I would have killed him a long time ago. ”
Saius was cold, and he couldn't help but be scared out of a cold sweat, Saius knew about his own affairs, and at this time he could only bow his head very low in embarrassment, and he was about to bury it in his chest.
"Alright, alright." Iguzast interrupted the two of them, "Don't talk about this inconsequential stuff anymore, let's talk about that kid." ”
"Okay, big brother," said the two to the left and right of Iguzast at the same time.
"Saius, there's nothing left for you here." Iguzast waved his hand at Saius and said, "You go down first, and then let me learn from your eldest brother well." Your eldest brother Moose is the most prominent son of his generation, and you can't disgrace him as his younger brother. If you let me know what is not good, you will suffer in the future. ”
"Yes, Grandpa." Saius assured as if he had been amnestied: "Grandpa, you can rest assured when you are old." I promise I'll study hard with my brother in the future, and if I'm still idle without doing my job, then you can kill me. ”
Iguzast said impatiently: "Don't be wordy, hurry up and get me out." ”
"Yes. Grandpa. Saius immediately turned and left the council hall.
After leaving the door, Saius immediately changed into a sad face. Looking at the door behind him, he muttered to himself: "It's really unlucky, that Locks didn't come early or late, but he came when he went out." Well, it's impossible to come out and play in the near future. Yes...... My dear little Amy, you have to look to my brother. ”
It's just been promised, and it's going to be restored immediately that the dog can't change the appearance of eating, it's really a bucket who can't help himself.
On the other side, Iguzast and his two brothers and several elders of the family were talking about Locks.
A white-haired old man sitting in the first seat on the lower left spoke at this time: "Head of the family, although the Minks family was destroyed by us, it is still the cause of everything that is the beginning of today's majesty. I don't know why I want to summon that hairy boy named Locks at this time. ”
"To be honest, I don't understand it either." Iguzast paused for a moment and then said: "Don't think about it if you don't understand, now let's talk about how to deal with this matter now." ”
The crowd fell silent, and no one was willing to speak first.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Iguzast understood that he had to speak for himself. Then he instructed the people: "First of all, you must pay close attention to the latest news in the palace, and be sure to inquire about the specific matters. Then, we will consider the countermeasures to be taken on a case-by-case basis. ”
"The head of the family is right, it should be like this."
"Big brother, I think so too."
“…………”
Everyone slapped Iguzast's ass one after another, making him touch his beard triumphantly and laughing: "Okay, since you all think that this should be the case, let's go down and deal with it separately." ”
"Yes, Master."
Meanwhile, Locks and Johns entered the main hall and saw King Fiat? Tonord.
Although the culprit who has brought his family to such a point is the majestic man in front of him, only the king can restore the past glory of the Mingyu family.
When Johns saw that Locks didn't say a word, he just looked at King Fiat blankly, so he hurriedly pulled Locks and saluted, "See Your Majesty the King." ”
Locks reluctantly saluted and said, "Count Locks? Minks See His Majesty the King. ”
"No courtesy." Fiat looked at the two people in front of him and said, "Tell me, what important things have you found to present to the royal family." ”
Before Locks could say anything, Johns replied first, "Your Majesty, that's right. My young master and I have gone through many hardships and dangers to finally find a relic of an ancient civilization in a mysterious galaxy within the Moldia asteroid group. There we found a very large cosmic stone. ”
"What? Cosmic Stone? Fiat was stunned for a moment, and then said in a loud voice: "What you said is true, not to lie to me." It's really a cosmic stone, not some other hedron. ”
"Really, Your Majesty." Johns replied affirmatively, "It's true, it's indeed the Cosmic Stone." Moreover, we found an obelisk in another ruin, and the ruins in Moldia were found according to the clues above. We still haven't fully deciphered the obelisk, and we may have some secrets on it. “
At this time, Fiat's heart was extremely excited, knowing that the ancient civilization of Ludao was the most powerful civilization in the legend. The things they left behind had incredible effects, especially the Cosmic Stone. Although the Cosmic Stone has not been found so far, it does not prevent Fia from deliberately lewd.
"Good! You have done a great job for the Empire. Fiat said with great joy: "Locks, you are a descendant of the Minks family. Hey, that incident was my mistake back then, I didn't expect it to be as serious as you. I still regret it when I think about it now. ”
Seeing Fiat's behavior like this, Locks really wanted to vomit. But considering the current situation, I had to endure it.
After Fiat was happy, he said to Locks: "It was my fault back then, and now I can't say anything." Now that you've found the Cosmic Stone, you deserve a reward. After a pause, he continued, "I think this is good, and I will restore the highest title of the Minks family to you." This is also a little compensation for me, and there are other rewards besides this. ”
"Your Majesty." Locks immediately thanked.
"Alright, you go down and bring the Cosmic Stone and the Obelisk to the palace." Fiat began to chase people.
"Yes, Your Majesty. I'll do it. After Locks finished speaking, he and Johns turned around and went out of the main hall to go back to their errands.
An hour later, the royal palace was dedicated to a small meeting hall for the royal family.
At this time, the royal family members who were called to the meeting were discussing with each other what the meeting was.
"Prince Kiltus, what kind of family did you say came out of Your Majesty today, how could you think that the royal family meeting would start now." A fat man as fat as a bucket asked the thin man next to him who looked like a bamboo pole.
"How do I know about the road, and no one has informed me." Kirtus waved his hand and said, "Cousin Tucker, let's wait for His Majesty to come down, now only His Majesty knows the way." ”
"yes, that's all there is to it." Tucker said helplessly.
At this time, in the other corner of the conference hall, there were two beautiful girls who were looking at the boring actions of these people in front of them silently. The two of them look very similar, they are simply carved out of a mold. One has beautiful blonde hair and silver eyes, and the other, on the contrary, has silver hair and golden eyes.
"Sister, what did you say Grandpa told us to do?" The silver-haired girl looked like she couldn't sit still, and said coquettishly to the blonde girl: "I don't like meetings the most, but it's much more interesting to do experiments." Why don't we slip out of the way. ”
"Alicia, don't Grandpa off. We'd better stay and don't go out. ”
"Hmph. My sister doesn't hurt me. The silver-haired girl Alicia took the blonde girl's hand and pouted.
At this moment, the doors of the conference hall were opened.
Fiat walked into the conference hall with a smile on his face and announced to the crowd inside, "I have a very good news to announce to you today. "There was a slight pause to increase everyone's curiosity." Someone found a huge cosmic stone and an obelisk left over from an ancient civilization, and soon everyone will be able to see both. ”
"What? Cosmic time and obelisk. I heard you right. ”
"Is there really a hedron like the Cosmic Stone?"
“…………”
The royals in the hall were taken aback, and what Fiat said surprised them too much. After all, no one has ever seen a cosmic stone, and now that they suddenly say that they can see the legendary magical spar, everyone will have doubts.
Among them, the pair of sisters in the corner are also a little suspicious like others at this time, but they are more looking forward to it. The curiosity to learn about the unknown made the two sisters' eyes sparkle with longing.
