"Your Highness the Princess."

The footsteps stopped outside the walnut door, and then a woman's voice sounded, it was the female knight who Brando had seen that day, who resembled a senior sister. "Nimesis?" Griffiin pulled his hair in one hand and smoothed out the long dress that had crumpled in the previous altercation.

"And the old minister, Her Royal Highness the Princess." A deep, sharp voice replied.

"Lord Overwell." Griffiin exhaled lightly, and in just a few seconds, she was back to normal, "Wait a minute, I'm getting ready for bed...... Alright, two of you, please come in. The door slammed open, and outside stood the cold-faced Nimesis and Overwell, and Sir Wolf seemed to be drenched in the rain or had just returned from outside, and was drenched.

Nimesis closed the door casually, and Overwell immediately said, "Your Royal Highness, Makaro and they have gone to meet the little majesty—"

"You don't have to say it, I know everything, Overwell." Griffiin interrupted him and looked up at his two close ministers with bright eyes. Nimesis had known her since childhood, and their relationship was more of a close friend and sister than an up-and-down relationship, and Nimesis had sworn to be her knight - she was fulfilling her promise, and the princess of Eruin couldn't help but smile and wonder if her sister remembered the vow she had taken in the first place.

She turned her gaze to Overwell again, although Liwoods was nominally her and the little prince's teacher, but in fact her swordsmanship and political prowesses were taught by this lone wolf as outsiders called, "Teacher, Sister Nimesis, please prepare, we will leave Ampesel at once." ”

Overwell was slightly stunned and couldn't help but raise his head. He had prepared a long speech to cheer up Her Royal Highness the princess, but he didn't expect that his student's endurance was beyond his expectations. He was well acquainted with the character of Her Royal Highness the princess, and immediately keenly guessed if something had happened during this time.

Thinking of this, the stalwart of the royal party glanced suspiciously into the room, and his gaze quickly fell on the open window.

"Teacher, you don't have to guess, I've figured it out, I can't give up Eruin's future, and I can't let Archduke Lantoni divide the kingdom. You said that the glorious banner is still in Eruin, but can I pick it up again, no matter how difficult and dangerous the future may be? Griffiin asked.

"Don't try how to know the result, Your Highness the Princess." Overwell withdrew his gaze and looked approvingly at Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"But the first task now is to return to my realm, where I will wage a war against the Siphah family and the Templars, and I believe that the people will stand with us, the Eruin have never forgotten that they fought valiantly against the Cruz, and only those who have forgotten the oath of the nobility." Princess Griffiin nodded.

Overwell bowed slightly in agreement, and he spoke, "Then the Templar must have heard of our internal disagreement, but it certainly wouldn't have expected us to break up so soon, and this is our only chance," he turned back, "Nimesis, how many royal knights can you mobilize?" ”

Grand Master Cadrel of the Royal Knights was a student of Lewoods, a die-hard member of the royal party, and would certainly not be on the side of the princess at this time; Overwell had previously arranged for Nimersis to join the Royal Knights in order to curb the Grand Master's power, but so far, Nimesis has only enjoyed prestige among the younger generation of knights.

Nimesis lowered her head and groaned for a while, and replied with a cold face: "No more than thirty percent, and they are all non-commissioned officer students who graduated from the Knight Academy, and they lack actual combat experience. ”

"Less." The princess frowned.

"We may be able to ask for outside help." Overwell smiled.

"Outside help?" A hint of panic flashed under Her Royal Highness Princess Eruin, and she couldn't help but look at the wardrobe.

"Earl Outin seems to have been very appreciative of Her Highness the Princess's opposition to the division of the kingdom, and I sent him out earlier, and he was deliberately on our side in his words. He has a mercenary under his command who has returned from the Black Forest with him, and if we can convince him to join us, it will not only help us in the current situation. Sir Wolf then slowly explained the origin of his wet clothes.

"Teacher, can you convince Count Outin?" A hint of surprise flashed in Griffin's eyes, not only because of the unexpected foreign aid, but also because his ideas were recognized by the traditional aristocracy. Although the forces under Brando's side on her side had already emerged in Tonigel's war, at the end of the day, Her Royal Highness did not think that a new power could have any strength.

Griffiin valued the Blandau's usefulness as a gold-tier swordsman. Indeed, Count Outing's battle-hardened mercenaries who could return from the Black Forest were now much more useful in Ampesel's stormy situation.

What's more, there is an ancient family standing behind Count Outin, and a large number of nobles who hold the same political demands as him, which is a huge help. Being able to get the goodwill of this force is really precious to the forces on the side of the princess who is in danger.

However, Brando, who was hiding in the closet, scoffed at this, and Overwell and the princess still wanted to rely on the power of the nobles. Of course, this is understandable, the ideological shackles are not so easy to break, not to mention that the kingdom does need capable people to govern, and Brando has to admit that there are many more knowledgeable and talented people among the nobles in this world.

Obercourt VII established a youth garrison and an academy to select talents from the local government, in order to break the monopoly of power on the old aristocracy, but this was only beginning when Eruin was caught in the flames of war. But the future Eruin still benefited from this, and a large number of outstanding talents selected from the youth garrison enriched the kingdom, bringing more than a decade of prosperity to the ancient country of Eruin.

If it hadn't been for the Second and Third Wars of the Black Roses that interrupted this process, perhaps Her Royal Highness the Princess Regent would have been able to slowly bring the derailed and broken car of the Eruin Kingdom back on the right track.

Thinking of this, Brando couldn't help but sigh softly.

He continued to listen to the cold voice of Nimesis outside, "The secret passage leads to the outside of the city, but by land, the surrounding areas are under the control of the temple, and further south is the territory of the Grand Duke of Anlek. The cadets of the Knight Academy had planned their escape routes in advance, and the only conclusion was that they would have a chance to escape from Ampesel by water. ”

"But we don't have a ship." Overwell replied.

"You can't have a ship, the storm on the sea of the crescent moon is coming, and you can't go to sea at this time." Nimesis added.

"No, we may have a ship." Griffiin suddenly remembered something. There was a look of hesitation on her face, and both Nimesis and Overwell looked at the princess strangely, the royal family had secret agents and some secret retreats everywhere, and they would not be surprised to say that there was a merchant ship here that was the secret arranged by the royal family in advance—there is a saying among the people of Eruin that the king has the most secrets—although not entirely correct, it also tells the truth.

It's just that after hesitating for a moment, Griffiin suddenly said, "Let me introduce you to a guest." ”

"A guest?"

Nimesis was slightly stunned, but Overwell was stunned for a moment, but then showed a sudden expression. Princess Griffiin bit her lip, bent her fingers and tapped on the wooden table, "Come out, Mr. Brando, I want you to keep your promise and help us get out of this place wholeheartedly." ”

Brando didn't expect Her Royal Highness to push herself out at this time, but he was only surprised for a moment and quickly recovered to normal. The two people outside seem to be close ministers of Princess Griffiin, and her willingness to let herself appear at this time means that at least Her Royal Highness the princess has recognized him as a member of this circle.

He exhaled, opened the closet door and walked out.

"It's you!" Nimesis raised her eyebrows slightly.

Overwell raised his eyebrows as well, but didn't rush to speak. But Brando is a little embarrassed, why not, a lonely man and a widow in the same room, or a princess of a country, it is inevitable that outsiders will have some speculation - not to mention that he did do something not so above board before, although it was only impulsive - but the so-called thief has a weak heart, Brando can't help but blush.

He couldn't help but snort, "Sir Overwell, meet again." I've heard you've seen him before, but unfortunately you haven't had the chance to meet Mr. Sir until now. Naturally, he said that Sir Wolf was secretly following them, and this matter was not told by the princess, but by the little she-dragon. Coupled with some details that the princess inadvertently revealed in the letter later, Brando only had to guess who she had met.

In fact, there were only a few people around the princess who could move freely, and Macaro was still a mercenary leader in the mountains of the south at that time, so naturally it was impossible for him to appear in Fort Ridten.

Hearing this, Overwell smiled slightly: "Mr. Brando's swordsmanship progress is really unexpected, I heard that you are approaching the element realm and I can't believe it, but I didn't expect the truth to be right in front of you, so I believe that there are indeed geniuses in this world." He complimented Brando, but immediately changed his tone and asked, "But why Mr. Brando is here at this moment, I would like an answer." ”

"Teacher," Princess Griffyne's face flushed slightly, not because of shyness, of course, but because of the nervousness of fear of being exposed, "Mr. Brando has long been my knight, he is my secret agent, and he has come to Ampesel this time to help us in secret." You've known about this before, but I'm here tonight because he has a ship in his hands that will come in handy. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Brando came to Ampesel on a ship led by Tonigel, right?" The half-elf girl glanced at him.

"When did I get a boat? Feelings: I have changed my career to be the ship boss? Brando was slightly stunned, of course he came by boat, but the ship was an authentic merchant ship. Now that the storm is coming, no merchant ship dares to go to sea, and the relationship between Tonigel and the major chambers of commerce in Ampesel is not yet close to that point. He didn't expect the princess to tell a lie that was justified, but he did have a way to get a ship, not by buying it, not by borrowing or renting, but by robbing, and the Naga were born to do this, and they were specialized in robbers - oh, pirates.

He thought for a moment, quickly cleared his mind, and nodded. Her Royal Highness the princess's rhetoric seems to be seamless, but in fact there are big flaws, who would have thought that the royal party would be divided internally. What's more, the news of the lionman's early start of war was only delivered to her desk an hour or two ago, and the argument she had laid out in advance was actually easy to dispel.

However, at this time, Overwell's thoughts were still focused on Brando and the hull of the ship in his hand, he glanced at Brando, reluctantly accepted Her Royal Highness's statement, and then asked: "But even if there is a ship, there is a storm and it is impossible to go to sea, is it possible that Her Royal Highness the Princess intends to cross the Ampessel Strait and enter the Wall of the Dead, but the sea route over there is to pass through the coastal sea of Anlek Province, and the Grand Duke of Anlek will definitely use the navy to intercept us." ”

"No, no." Griffiin shook his head: "Among the collections of the Temple of Andr-Vouler is a shipwreck from the time of the Prophet Ek, which is said to be the bow of the goddess Martha made from the teeth of a sea devil whale, and it is said that the ship equipped with this head can calm the storm. ”

"That's a good idea." Overwell's eyes lit up: "But the basement of the Undervoula Temple is not so easy to enter. ”

"I'll ask Magdal for help, as for who to infiltrate the Temple......" Griffiin set his eyes on Brando.

"Me?" Brando was stunned, he knew the legend of the ship's bow, but he didn't know if it was true. Of course, it would be nice to get this thing - not to deal with the current situation, which is so troublesome with the Sea Demon Whale at the moment - but to prepare for entering the Storm Country, which is the sea outside of Martha's Guardian to the south of the Trade Wind Ring, and there is a huge copy in it that can get a level 70 suit and a Bronze Body Quest item.

Magical storms are rampant outside the Storm Country, and it's a no-go zone for the Naga people, and the only way to get something to quell the storm is to get something that can quell the storm without Naga's Sea Demon Whale. For example, the tranquil breath of holy water, the bow of Martha, or the forbidden spell that can manipulate the weather.

Brando, of course, didn't want to make a fuss about this season, so he just silently jotted down the information and nodded.

Griffiin seemed to be pleased with Brando's attitude, and she couldn't help but comfort: "Don't worry, Mr. Brando, Magdal is free to move around the temple, and entering the basement is not such a troublesome thing. Possessions are not important things to the saints, but they are difficult for ordinary people to enter, and your task is only to pick her up and bring it back by the way. Besides, now that I am around, you are the only one who can move freely and gain Magdal's trust. ”

Brando thought for a moment, and found that what Her Royal Highness said seemed to be true, so he nodded pretendly, thinking that he was just taking the opportunity to meet Magdal, and that the nun and princess should be in the temple to hear the news.
