Act XXVII: The Princess and the Princess I

"Brando, do you want me to let Roman ...... her"

"No, no need, Freya, I'm used to it. Let her be happy, she knows the proportions - by the way, you can help me to make sure that she doesn't come to me with a red forehead later. ”

The dialogue takes place against the backdrop of a long motorcade of light scattered on the verdant boulevard of the Grasse Forest; The knights, dressed in gold and red robes, were in good order—all but one. The eldest merchant, dressed in bright armor and armed with a spear of azure, shouted and ran around the convoy without any image.

This is the second time she has done this in the past week, but fortunately the knights are already familiar with this 'lovely' 'countess', and anyway, as long as they get far away, at least they will not be knocked over by a person on their backs, and even if the merchant lady is confused, she will not crash into the carriage, right?

Freya glanced back and couldn't help but sigh slightly, originally she thought that after she went to the Royal Knight Academy, Brando would at least be able to restrain Roman a little. But apparently, it now seems that this is nothing more than wishful thinking.

So far, at least, there has been no precedent for anyone to successfully restrain this young lady.

She glanced at Brando, nodded at him, and lowered the curtain before driving to Akane in front of her. Miss Mercenary looked at the scenery around her with some familiarity, unlike Freya, the South was like home to her.

"Akane."

"Miss Freya." Akane looked back and replied with some respect.

"Akane, I've said it many times, you can call me Freya. I am not a nobleman, and before I became a knight, I was just from the southern countryside like you. Freya frowned.

Akane was slightly embarrassed: "Freya." I'm sorry. I shouldn't have given Miss Roman the Azure Spear...... I didn't expect her to be so ....... ”

She suddenly felt a little rude, but for a moment she couldn't find a better adjective to describe Roman's current state. Freya saw her embarrassment and comforted her, "Okay. She's not a big lady either, forget it...... That's what she is," she sighed a little weakly, "with her as a child." I really admire that I have survived so far...... But Roman is actually a very good person, but she is a little childish. ”

Akane looked over there again, and couldn't help but be a little convinced.

But she turned her head, her eyes inevitably in the direction of the carriage.

Brando lowered the curtains, and after nearly a month of observation, he could basically confirm the state of the Holy Spear Firmament. The sky in Akane's hand was obviously not the full form of the legendary holy spear that had fallen into the stars, and the holy spear had multiple seals on it, which was one of the possibilities he had already thought of.

It's just that Brando doesn't know that these seals were deliberately set by Owena in order to let Akane Shun Lì grasp the sky. Or were these seals left on the holy spear in the first place?

But there is no doubt that even under the heavy seals, the Holy Spear Sky is worthy of the name of an artifact.

It has more than twice as many attacks as the Earth Sword. The accompanying skills are even more terrifying. The point is that the firmament, which is an artifact, also has a special realm of gods. The terrifying 'Undefeated Fate' is so powerful that even Brando has only seen it in his life.

However, Brando didn't tell the secret, on the one hand, he really couldn't find a good way to explain the fact that he could directly see the attributes of the equipment - in Vaughnde. This is the job of high-level astrologers and alchemists, and they have to go through many experiments to determine the purpose and use of a piece of magical equipment.

On the other hand, the Azure Spear is really as weak as possible for the current Eruin, and the more low-key the storage zài, the better.

The eldest lady of the merchant is fooling around with the Azure Spear, which is actually what he wants. Anyway, everyone knows her character, and taking it out so blatantly makes people less suspicious that it is genuine.

Who would take the Azure Spear as a toy?

I'm afraid even William wouldn't dare to make such a loud noise. However, Brando has been feeling a little uneasy lately, and he has a vague doubt that Ovina will reappear in the future and kill him directly.

He turned his head apprenanently, his gaze falling on the two siblings opposite. To be exact, it is the heir in first order to the throne of the Eruin Kingdom at this moment and his sister, the eldest princess of the half-elves.

More than a month has passed since the Holy Spear Firmament recognized Qian as the master, and the climate south of Ampesel has actually become hotter and hotter day by day. Since the Battle of Ampesel, every overt or covert activity carried out by the princess's forces in the harbor has gone smoothly, but the final fate of the Azure Spear is somewhat unpredictable.

The Bugas suddenly decided not to take the firmament with them, believing that the legendary relic might be more suitable to stay in Eruin, according to William's words, but Tania had also mentioned that the Bugas would send about one or two wizards to the kingdom to study the power of the Azure Spear.

Although I don't understand the thoughts of the Bujia people, these are all afterthoughts for Brando; Time was of the essence, and it was unlikely that a new envoy would arrive on the part of Ampesel and other wizards, and after seeing William off, he left the port with the princess, passing through the Royal Knight Academy, and headed straight for Toniger.

The princess is desperate to meet her best friend, Magdal, and he must prepare for Eruin's future.

After a week's journey, the carriage finally approached the Grasse beach.

Arriving here is basically the same thing for Brando as coming home. In the past half a day, he had already met several old members of the Red Bronze Dragon Mercenary Regiment, and Su was finally able to meet her father, the Red Bronze Dragon Leto, and it was the first time that Brando saw the daughter of the strong bar owner in tears.

The meeting between Kargris and his father was a different story, and since Brando had been officially recognized, Sir Mintai was naturally relieved of the embarrassment of being imprisoned. It's just that this old-fashioned aristocrat obviously didn't necessarily agree with his precious son's approach, and scolded the first commander of the White Lion Legion under Brando.

Naturally, this became a joke among the young people from Tonigal.

Regardless, being able to return to our hometown is still an exciting event for everyone. It's just that no one will forget the heroic souls of those who will remain in Ampesel forever.

Brando silently thought about these trivial matters until Her Royal Highness the princess in front of her opened her mouth gently. The half-elf girl raised her head to look at the young man opposite her, and the dappled sunlight outside the curtain fell on her face, dividing different shades of broken gold floating shadows on that beautiful face, as if with a natural veil, and a little more mysterious out of thin air.

But Princess Griffiin's expression was very calm, and she thought about it for a moment before she quietly asked, "Mr. Brando, the royal spies have news that Denel seems to have met with Anlek, just as you guessed." In order to fight us, they will form an alliance instead. Although the Grand Duke of Lantony and the Highland Knights have agreed to send troops to the battle, I am still a little worried......"

"Worried about what?"

"I fear that Anlek, Mr. Brando, is a man whom my father knows well, and that the Anlek family has been operating on the plateau where their rule is solid for generations, just to subvert the kingdom. And today's Grand Duke Anlek is undoubtedly the most cunning of the successive heirs of their family. Her Royal Highness replied softly, "The Priest of Wood told me that I had evidence that Enrik was also in collusion with the One Society, but during the whole war, he only sent the Eagle Swordsman Dejar to show his face at the end—"

"As soon as the war was over, he hurried out of Ampesel before the Temple could catch him, but instead of returning to his domain, he went to Magitan to ally with the Count of Jeandenel."

"He never fights battles that he is not sure of, so I suspect he must have some conspiracy."

Brando nodded, in fact, this was also something he was worried about. In fact, before the princess received the news, Wood had written to tell him about the cause and effect of the day of Enlek's escape, but he keenly felt that the temple seemed to be withholding some key information, the most important of which was that Brando knew that a knight from Cruz had secretly entered Eruin, but he did not know which legion the specific number belonged to.

Obviously, this knight group can't be here to deal with him, and naturally it won't be to deal with the eldest son of the king in the north, so the remaining possibilities can only point to An Lik.

But how could Anlek take it so seriously for the Temple? Even if it is collusion with the cultists, it is just a joke, and to be honest, how many nobles in Eruin do not collude with the cultists?

Although there are only a few people who are directly in agreement with the unity of all things, the families of the great nobles more or less have some shady roosters and dog thieves.

If the temple was going to use this excuse to prevaricate, Brando really didn't even have the mood to listen.

There must be some conspiracy on the part of Enlek, but the question is what the conspiracy is. Jean Denell's primary target must be on his side and the princess, a war between the two sides is inevitable, and although the Temple of Fire is looking for trouble with Anlek, it may not necessarily be that he and the princess will be separated.

The Cruz people suffered a big loss in Ampesel, and they might be waiting for revenge, and the core of the problem was that the situation between the north and the south had stabilized, so the temple of fire might not be happy to see the princess quickly unify the south.

Moreover, Wood's letter also mentioned that the Empire's higher-ups coveted the Azure Spear, and if it was confirmed that this holy relic was still in Eruin, it could be a huge problem.

That's the real big problem.

He thought about it for a moment, and felt that it was imperative that the alliance between Anlek and Jean Denel should be eliminated first. However, it is obviously unrealistic to uproot the power of the Anlek family on the Anlek Plateau in a short period of time, but it is to let Count Denel himself be the weak link of this evil alliance.

It's just that he and Her Royal Highness the princess are not enough.
