Chapter 164: Confession

It was also dramatic, and after finding himself in a circle, it seemed that he was going back to the palace on the western outskirts of the royal capital, Therland, to explain to Her Royal Highness, and then to see Master Rutherford if there was a way to interrogate him.

Seeing that the time was close to noon, Aine did not walk directly to the palace, but went around and returned to the tavern where he lived.

I ate some food that wasn't very tasty - Anyway, Ain was still trying to explain it, and he wasn't in a relaxed mood. He didn't know how the old butler could agree to such a plan. Even so, it is not a violation of the laws of the Kingdom, but it is certainly not what the Kingdom wants to see.

Back in the room, he replaced the worn-out mage robe on his body, Aine always felt that the mage robe was dirty, and in fact the mage robe was not very suitable for him to use.

The spell materials were sorted into space bags, and Ain put on the ordinary mage robes he had used to make purely non-magical materials. Although this mage robe is relatively simple, it is clean and tidy and does not look shabby, which is its advantage.

……

This time, after showing the baron's badge, Aine was not treated as well as he had been when he came to the palace early in the morning. Those Guards soldiers, although polite, did not intend to let Ain directly into the palace at all, but informed the palace through the solidified communication equipment.

Still, Ain didn't have to wait long.

As if receiving the message of consent, the soldiers of the Guards behaved even more politely, leading the way with one soldier. Or rather, accompaniment. Aine was in a study as he wished. I saw the little princess who had said goodbye to him not long ago, and the prophetic master Rutherford who was standing by with a smile.

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, it is not good for me to manage the retainers, and I hope that Her Royal Highness the Princess will arbitrate." Aine was half-kneeling on the ground and whispered.

Her Royal Highness looked at Al Ain with a smile, took two steps forward, and walked in front of Al Ain, who was half-kneeling.

Slowly reaching out, the little princess grabbed Ain's arms. Then a handful of upward pull force is applied.

Seemingly a weak girl, but unexpectedly full of strength, Ain sighed in his heart, sure enough, Yaling was born to be an elegant warrior.

When Ain fully stood up, the little princess didn't look so small, with a height of 5.7 feet, she was only half a head short in front of Ain - you must know that Ain's height should already be the best among humans.

"Ain, I can't arbitrate anything, because I'm just a princess who temporarily tied up her father who was taken captive to handle state affairs. Many things are in charge of the noble council. Isn't it? ”

"Maybe I can state it." Aine looked down at the little princess standing in front of him, the faint fragrance of the girl's hair was faint, but it was already sniffed by Ain.

"Of course." The heat from Ain's breath made Princess Jacqueline a little uneasy, but she chose to stand still, ready to listen to Ain.

"......" Ain's statement was almost in line with the summons he had received before, and even in this matter that he could actually get away with, he did not ignore his responsibility.

All the reasons for this happened were attributed by Ain to his lack of detail in the management and advice of his retainers.

And the master of prophecy, who was silently watching Aine and Jacqueline, nodded quietly.

After listening to Ain's story, the little princess can be regarded as understanding the ins and outs of what Ain said.

"Maybe this matter really doesn't need to be arbitrated by the Council of Nobles." After thinking for a while, the little princess made this answer, "The current kingdom is no longer the same. ”

When the little princess spoke, her eyes had begun to darken a little.

Aine smiled and said, "Everything will be fine, I want to believe in Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

In fact, in Ain's heart, he already knew that this country was on the verge of not breaking or standing. Perhaps only shock therapy can save the fate of this country.

"If I were against all the nobles, would you still support me like that, Ain?" The little princess raised her head slightly, and met Ain's eyes with her determined gaze.

"Yes."

Aine didn't hesitate.

Just when a special feeling was brewing, Master Rutherford, who had been silent on the sidelines, suddenly interjected.

"Ain, are you looking for me, is there anything else?"

Aine glanced at the little princess in front of him, who was firm, but already a little shy, and then shifted his position to the side, facing Master Rutherford and said, "Yes." ”

Changing the position in which he was standing, it was not that Aine felt that there was something wrong with the little princess's emotions, but it was the most basic courtesy.

"Master Rutherford, I would like to use you to send a message to Far Winter and tell my butler not to solicit refugees like this again. In addition, Sam and Harden disband their team of adventurers, and then the two of them rush to the royal capital on their own. "Aine was actually very reluctant, but he had to behave like this. Otherwise, what is the difference between what I just said and putting on a show.

"No need." Behind Ain, a girl's voice came, "Although I am only acting as an agent of the kingdom's affairs, I can decide this matter. ”

"Yes." Aine nodded nonchalantly, "Then Master Rutherford, I want to send a message to Winterfell, so that Sam and Harden can bring a team of adventurers to the royal capital......"

"Going South?" Rutherford knew a little about Ain's plan, so he asked.

"The southeastern wilderness of the kingdom is indeed my goal." Ain didn't hide his purpose in the slightest, "I have information alluding to there, and it seems that there is something we don't have in the grasp. ”

Master Rutherford nodded, made a few random gestures, and quickly got a reply.

"That fat bard has replied, and he will leave tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and I think he will soon be able to reach the royal capital."

Ain bowed, thanking Master Rutherford for acting as his communicator.

"Make some preparations, like this robe on your body, it's time to change. Visiting the library of the Spellcaster Alliance in the royal capital of Theran for the past few days may help you forge your true name. Master Rutherford casually pulled out a card, "This card will be useful to you." There is also a teleportation technique three times a day, at least on the main material plane, which can contact me at any time. ”

As Ain was about to leave the study, the girl, who had been silent after asking Ain that question, suddenly spoke.

"The day before you are ready to leave, come to the palace and have a letter to help me take to a city in the Thin Dawn Land in the wasteland."

Only then did Ain remember that the land of Boxi above the wasteland was Yaling's hometown. (To be continued......)
