Volume 2 The Puppet Chapter 45 Tragic Time
Chapter 45 Tragic Time
Lore looked at everyone and had a hard time digesting the news for a while.
Even Kylo put down the book in his hand a little and turned his head to look at Ric.
Lore and they didn't have doubts before, after all, Rick's usual behavior is too arrogant, plus Vickers and Myron also claim to be Rick's servants, just with these, Rick's identity will not be simple!
However, Lore and the others thought that Like was a noble relative of the princely country, and the kingdom was already considered to be the top of the sky, and today, Like actually claimed to be the sixteenth princess of the Zhenyue Empire, which was completely beyond everyone's expectations.
Leah is also a princess, but she is only the princess of Lan Ze, and although Lan Ze has a high international status because of the influence of various aspects, Lan Ze has always been just a kingdom.
And the empire, there are only three in the world today, Lieyang, Winster, and Zhenyue, which is across the sea from Lanze.
Although it is difficult to say who is stronger and who is weak among the three major empires, when it comes to land area, Zhenyue is definitely the first place deservedly, because the Zhenyue Empire alone occupies an entire continent, although the land area is relatively small, but it is also quite remarkable.
The Zhenyue Empire has very little contact with the continent on Lanze's side, and the largest contact in history was the Imperial Holy War a thousand years ago, although the result of the war ended with the defeat of the Zhenyue Empire that took the initiative to provoke the war, but since then, no one dares to underestimate this overlord across the ocean.
Now hearing that Like suddenly blew up his identity, Lore was first taken aback, and then a little embarrassed, although Leah has no heart and lungs, Aitch knows that unlike the previous Seven Princes of Winster, Diman, the relationship between the Zhenyue Empire to which Like belongs and Lan Ze is not good.
In the imperial holy war a thousand years ago, the biggest victim was Lan Ze, and even the entire country almost fell more than half, this is the most humiliating period of Lan Ze's history, even if it has been a thousand years, the exchanges between Lan Ze and Zhenyue are limited to simple superficial forms.
And Aitch and Leah are the princes and princesses of Arashizawa today, although they are not the first in line to the throne, but they are still a little embarrassing.
Rick frowned, feeling strange at the silence of the others, and asked, "Why don't you speak?" I have announced my identity, why don't you feel surprised at all?"
Lorre was silent, and Aitch sighed, and said with a slightly wry smile: "Rick, we are indeed surprised by your identity, which we did not expect at all! However, Rick, since you have identified yourself, then let me tell you, my full name is Edge-Carrey, this is my sister-in-law, and my full name is Leah Carey." ”
"Carry?" Rick was stunned and didn't seem to react, but Myron and Vickers behind her were all at once
Stunned.
Rick thought about it carefully, and then woke up like a dream, "Ah! I know! You are the prince and princess of Arazawa!"
Aitch nodded, and Rick's next words made Aitch laugh and cry.
Rick said with a look of surprise: "You are a prince, I am a princess, a perfect match!"
Edge: "......"
Lore asked with a black face, "Well, Ric, haven't you studied history?" We Lan Ze and your Zhenyue have not been very friendly since ancient times......
Rick frowned and said, "Do you mean the imperial holy war a thousand years ago? It's been so long! What's there? Besides, what does this have to do with us falling in love? Maybe the two of us getting married can also promote friendly exchanges between the two countries!"
Rick's big declaration really made Lore and the others cry and laugh, although it felt that something was not right, but what Rick said seemed to make sense.
Lore took a deep breath, calmed down, and said to Ric: "Okay, let's put aside the identity issue, we are all private interactions, and those are left alone!
Rick glanced at Corelli with some embarrassment, and Corelli was not angry, just smiled gently, and teased: "When you go back, you must talk to me about your love problems." ”
Rick nodded shyly, and as soon as Aitch wanted to open his mouth to deny it, he was suppressed by a look from Lore, and Aitch felt a little sad, but he could only be silent.
Lore looked solemn and said to Corelli: "Senior Sister Corelli, although the Zhenyue Empire proposed by Like is a little farther away, and it is estimated that it will be very troublesome if there is a language barrier, but Like is the princess of Zhenyue after all, and it is a matter of one sentence to provide convenience to you, plus Like is your good friend, so I think it's okay, what about you?"
Corelli thought for a moment and said, "I also think it's good, the Zhenyue Empire, the land across the ocean, it's good to be able to see it, and I didn't expect that today I would not only see the legendary Violet Prince and Princess Iris, but also have the opportunity to hug the lap of Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Zhenyue Empire!"
Rick smiled a little embarrassedly, and then decided on the plan very decisively: "Then it's decided, Vickers, wait for me to write a letter, you can help me bring it to Quentin, let him arrange things, as long as it is done well, then forget the things that deliberately scared me before, if something goes wrong, hum!
Vickers sweated on his forehead, and repeatedly promised to convey the young lady's instructions in place!
After that, everyone discussed the process of leaving in detail, and finally finalized a detailed itinerary plan.
However, the heavens often do not grant people's wishes, and what happens next is something that no one can predict!
......
After sharing her worries with her friends, Corelli is in a much better mood, and she can't wait to tell her sister the good news.
However, although Corelli was happy in her heart, she did not forget the most basic etiquette of being a person, after she said goodbye to Lore and his party, she first went to the place where she worked at night, and sincerely asked the person in charge of the store for a leave, fortunately, Corelli usually behaved very well, and the person in charge only casually told a few words, and then approved Corelli's request.
Corelli has also already calculated, even if Rick's side is arranged, it is not so simple to leave Lanze, there must be a bunch of troubles waiting for him in the future, rather than waiting, it is better to work for a few more days.
By the way, early withdrawal from the academy is also indispensable procedures, the academy cares about its teachers, and the friends who usually make good friends always have to say goodbye.
And the last point, that is, the parents, although Corelli hated them from the bottom of their hearts, and could even be said to dislike them, because for Corelli and Mino, the parents have never really fulfilled their duties as parents.
However, even so, after all, she gave birth to her own parents, and Corelli still has a little bit of family affection in her heart, not to mention anything else, she should always leave some money before leaving, which should be regarded as repaying their fertility.
Perhaps, I should also leave a farewell letter, firstly, it can be regarded as an explanation, and secondly, I also hope to be able to say something from my heart in the letter, and those words of hatred and resentment will not be mentioned, or to admonish them, let them know that from now on, no one will be able to support them at will, so it is better to quit drinking and gambling......
Corelli walked all the way like this, thinking all the way in her heart, always thinking about the things she should do before leaving, the people she should see, and the feelings she should return.
Just thinking about it, I couldn't help but think about it a little more, and Corelli was already in tears before she knew it.
Corelli wiped the tears from her face with her hand, and after being slightly stunned, she realized that it turned out that she hated her parents the most, but deep down she still hoped that they could change her mind.
However, there was no more chance.
Corelli wiped away her tears and walked on, having made up her mind that she never wanted to look back.
Corelli put aside the clutter of her thoughts, and began to think in her mind about how to tell her sister what was going to happen.
Thinking about whether she should tell Mino, her sister has also met the big shots, and tell her that the sister Like she had seen was actually the princess of the Zhenyue Empire, one of the three major empires in the world.
Tell Mino, Sister Rick is a very nice person, that's why
With her help, my sister and Mino were able to have the opportunity to live on the other side of the sea.
By the way, Rick's status is noble, maybe he should also tell Mino, just let her know secretly, and don't tell others.
Also, maybe I should take Mino out for a walk tomorrow, prepare more useful items, and it's best to buy some books related to the Zhenyue Empire, because the two of them are about to go to live in the Zhenyue Empire, and the language can be learned slowly, but some ordinary etiquette norms and customs should still be understood in advance!
Oh! I almost forgot! And most importantly, one thing!
Say thank you to Rick and a few of her friends before leaving, and say goodbye!
Finally, say goodbye to the city that has lived for so long!
Corelli's heart has never been more urgent than today, because today, she can finally stand proudly in front of her sister and tell her: her sister has finally fulfilled her promise!
However, fate always likes to tear and crush this expectation when a person is full of expectations, which is the evil taste of God, but it is the cruelest punishment for those who have hope!
Corelli happily pushed open the door of the old house, but this time it was not her sister, who usually liked to sit in front of the main house and wait for her, but a broken candle.
Corelli felt a wave of fear in her heart, and she rushed to her and her sister's room like crazy!
No!
She rushed to her parents' room again!
Nor did it!
She searched the whole dilapidated house!
It still didn't turn out!
The only thing I found was the blood-stained nail marks on the door frame of the main house!
Collari trembled and stroked the bloodstains, and her whole heart seemed to have become torn apart! Boundless despair and fear slowly enveloped her!
The gentle as water Kelelli finally stood at the turning point of happiness, but at this moment, she was pulled into the bottomless abyss again!
