Chapter 52: The Grand Duke

"How's Conteseno doing?" The middle-aged man asked in a deep voice.

Rubbing his temples with his hands, the azure gemstones are perfectly set in a delicate ring made of white gold, shining gracefully in the light of a magic lamp. From the shallow wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, it can be seen that the years have begun to leave their mark on him. After closing his eyes and resting for a while, he opened his blue eyes and looked at the door when he heard footsteps.

"Residents have been evacuated to Nalebus to the north, and the latest group is expected to arrive in three days." The person who came in stopped in front of the middle-aged man, and after paying the highest courtesy to him, he replied respectfully.

"Where's the beast tide?"

"The first assault is expected tomorrow afternoon, and Orambet is fully prepared and has stated that he will not let any monster cross Conteseno's defenses until the residents reach Nalebus safely." Visakt paused, and continued, "As expected, Lord Trantris should have arrived in Conteseno. ”

"That's good."

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, his blue eyes revealing approval, not in vain what he valued Orambet. After a moment of silence, he spoke:

"How's Ophelia?"

At the mention of this name, a trace of kindness flowed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised slightly.

Of course, Visakt noticed this, and was a gentle and kind ruler on the day of Fair Day in Galea, and it was normal for him to have such an expression when referring to his daughter.

That's right, sitting in front of Visakt at this time is none other than the supreme leader of Galea - Kenseh Orendsay Galea Ratnitate!

Signature short reddish-brown hair, an oravian the size of a pigeon's egg, and a faintly approachable atmosphere. He is the current Grand Duke of the Principality, who is not yet forty years old and in the prime of his life.

Although he was the king of a country, Kenser did not like to show off his status with glitzy luxury, which he considered a waste. The only thing of value on his body was the jewel Olaviatan, a blue gem the size of a pigeon's egg, which was the family treasure of Galea, which every head of the Galea family must wear, and was also a symbol of the status of the Grand Duke, which was their tradition.

"Her Royal Highness remained in Conteseno, and did not retreat with the inhabitants to Nalebus. According to the news from Vidjet, Her Royal Highness the Princess is interested in..."

"This is nonsense!" Before his minister could finish speaking, Kenseh slapped the table, and his face couldn't help but rise with a gloomy color, "That's the beast tide led by the Beastmaster!" What can she do with a strength that doesn't even reach the gold level! ”

"Your subordinates, let Lord Trantris escort Her Royal Highness to Nalebus." Visakt hurriedly said, it was the first time he had seen the Grand Duke so angry.

But if his daughter messes around like this, Visakt estimates that he will do the same. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but begin to sympathize with his own Grand Duke.

"No, you go on, what's wrong with Ophelia?" Taking a few deep breaths to calm the anger and anxiety in his heart, Kenser motioned for Visakt to continue.

Ophelia is not a messy girl, on the contrary, she is smarter than other children her age, assertive, and has a plan and a purpose for doing things. As a father, she knew this, otherwise he would not have let Ophelia, who was just an adult, go out on a trip.

"After Her Royal Highness returned from the Anglis Mountains, she brought back a person who was suspected of being a demon, and she had already reported to her subordinates before, so I wouldn't introduce it too much. It is said that this young man who is suspected of being a demon is quite strong, and in just a few seconds, he crippled a seven-person adventure team, and it was a single blow that crippled him. According to the investigation, one of the squads is a Elite Iron Force, and the rest are Gold Rank. ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Kenseer was a little surprised, and he crippled the fine iron level with one blow, which ordinary Mithril couldn't do. If he remembered correctly, the young man seemed to be only twenty-five years old.

Vijette reported that Her Royal Highness seemed to have a high opinion of the young man named Lu Kaifeng. However, His Highness didn't reveal much information, so he couldn't tell what strength the young man was in, but it was definitely Mithril. ”

"What does this have to do with her refusal to leave Conteseno?"

"According to Vijette's report, His Highness was reluctant to leave because of this young man. Speaking of which, His Royal Highness also offered to learn swordsmanship from Lu Kaifeng, but was refused. The reason is... Can't teach? ”

Speaking of this, Visakt's tone unconsciously brought confusion. Not to mention his strange reason, the fact that he actually refused to be the teacher of Her Royal Highness the princess was enough to surprise him, not only him, but also the people of Galea would be surprised by this. I don't know how many people want this name, but Her Royal Highness the princess still can't look down on it.

It's just because of the name of His Highness's genius.

Kense, too, was surprised, but now was not the time to discuss it.

"Judging from his ability to defeat Jingtie in one move, this young man named Lu Kaifeng should be a Mithril, which is not easy for his age. However, in the face of the beast king and beast tide, it is difficult for platinum to protect himself, what role can he play with a Mithril? What did Ophelia think? ”

Without answering the words of the Grand Duke, no matter what position he had, it was not suitable for him to speak, and Visakt remained silent.

"Forget it, let her go if she wants to, Tranteris will protect her. As for this young man named Lu Kaifeng, you can find someone to investigate. Without dwelling too much on the matter, Kenser turned his attention away from it and asked about something else: "Is there any movement on them?" ”

"Not yet, they're all looking for the man, but they don't seem to be found."

"Keep an eye on them, let them find what they want, don't let them make any trouble."

"Yes!"

...

Lu Kaifeng repeatedly confirmed the map, and with his knowledge of junior high school geography that was almost thrown into the trash, he was finally sure that the cliff ahead was the cliff where he was going to pick the medicine. In order to find here, he even let go of the sword soul several times to search, but he had a headache. In and around... Oh no, after a day of searching, he arrived at his destination. However...

Looking at the empty cliffs, Lu Kaifeng couldn't help but wonder if he had gone to the wrong place again, after all, he had also gone to the wrong cliffs before... Ahem...

I really miss the game map, not only can mark the mission location, but also can automatically navigate, even if you are a novice, you won't get lost.

If only there was a map of Gaode.

Lu Kaifeng sighed, if he has an idea, he might as well wash and sleep, he can't even get a mobile phone, and he still wants an electronic map?

Forget it, let's go up and have a look.

Just as he was about to step out of the woods, the sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded.

Tsk, I've let you go.

Lu Kaifeng's eyes narrowed.
