Volume 1: Pride Chapter 13: Unexpected News
In the end, he was speechless, and for Grace, this matter was tantamount to hitting a ghost in broad daylight.
"Uncle, don't come unharmed." In an attic on the second floor of the tavern, Xiao Yueluo sat on the bed and looked at the middle-aged uncle in front of her, with a meaningful smile on her face.
"Don't come here unharmed, uncle, I'm about to be scared out of your mind, you said you ......"
Grace kept walking around the room, stopping from time to time to look at the woman she hated and loved: "What do you want me to say......"
"Doesn't the teacher want to see me?"
"You still know that I'm your teacher? Give me back all the things I taught you before? The fingers of his right hand were against Xiao Yueluo's forehead, looking like she hated iron but not steel. The safety of the girl in front of him was undoubtedly great news for him, but when he thought of the situation around him, Grace was worried.
"You said you had escaped and why did you come back? Don't tell me you can't guess what's going on here. ”
Xiao Yueluo lowered her head and tried to make a humble and teachable appearance, well, the teacher is old, so she still has to be considerate. In addition, Xiao Yueluo of course also understands that Grace cares about herself. As his own swordsmanship instructor, this man's temperament Xiao Yueluo is still very familiar.
"Uncle......
"Don't follow me like this, isn't it usually very powerful in front of that group of stinky boys, why did I instantly soften?" Grace raised her eyebrows, but there was a slight smile on her face, although the student in front of her was usually a little uninhibited, but overall it was quite good.
"You don't have to blame yourself too much for this matter, I'm afraid that even I am not much better than you, and may even be worse than what you did."
"How is that possible! If you are a teacher, you must be able to ......."
What can be? Could it be that a different person could reverse the fate of the Duchy of Evel? Less than 100 years old, Evel is a small country, and its power is the weakest among the surrounding countries. Grace's leadership may have been able to delay Evel's demise, but the fate would not change, at least as she knew it when she learned of it.
"Princess...... Did you escape? ”
Xiao Yueluo's hesitant voice sounded in her ears, and Grace stared at the person in front of her for a moment before she spoke: "Actually, I don't know much about this matter. After Finley Bell stormed the royal city, the princess should have escaped from Elivier through the secret passages, but later someone saw the princess's guards in a forest. ”
"The princess's guard? Where is that forest? A rare clue appeared in front of him, and Rao is Xiaoyueluo couldn't help but stand up at this moment no matter how calm she was.
"Waterfront City, Sunset Ridge." Grace slowly spit out six words, and then quickly grabbed someone who wanted to leave, "Don't worry, it's not too late for you to make a decision after I finish speaking." ”
"Actually, that guard has been transformed into a corpse when he was seen, and even if you go for such a long time, it will be difficult to find clues about the princess, and according to what I have learned, that place was ...... a while ago."
Listening to the description in Grace's mouth, Xiao Yueluo couldn't help frowning, if this situation was true, then her previous conjecture ......
"What do you think about this?" In the empty attic, only Xiao Yueluo was left at the moment, well, of course, including the "dog cub" of the head wolf, "What the uncle said always feels very similar to those things in Silent Hill." ”
"Do you want to check it out?"
"Of course, no matter what's going on over there, I'm going to go, after all, it's the only clue we know now, but until then...... It's better to do some preparation. ”
The silver pupils flashed with a few obscure lights.
Waterfront City, Sunset Ridge.
Silently reciting the purpose of this time, Xiao Yueluo's heart couldn't help but rise a little panicked, although her own strength was enough to deal with those mutant beasts, but when people were exhausted, it was too dangerous to go alone.
Do you want to take the uncle with you? No way!
As soon as the thought in her heart floated, she was thrown out of Xiao Yueluo's mind.
It is her responsibility that the princess will have an accident, if she pulls the uncle into the water because of this, even she is afraid that she will be uneasy, and another point is that those abnormalities in the forest, what happened in Silent Hill is actually not convenient to reveal to others, of course, even if she says it, I am afraid that no one will believe it.
……
Two days later, the night before she left Eliville
"Brother Wang, can you explain to me what this means?" In the palace of the Ames Empire, Ronald looked at the half-brother in front of him, with a smile called "forbearance" on his face.
Angelo Olnis, the first heir to the Ames Empire, has a tall body, a golden-red tights with intricate patterns and ornaments, and a bearded face that looks a little rough, of course, this is only compared to Ronald.
"That's not what I meant." Angelo hooked his lips and looked at the person in front of him, and his happy mood was not half hidden, "It's you, second brother, I haven't seen you for so long, and it doesn't seem like it's right to ask the master when you come up?" ”
The anger in his heart gradually decreased, and Ronald, who heard this, instantly figured out the cause and effect of this incident: "Okay, I am indeed a little reckless in this matter, but I shouldn't have wronged you, big brother, right?" ”
"Yes and how, no? Even if I deny it, I'm afraid you won't believe it, right? ”
"If you know, it's good." Ronald stood up, glanced at Angelo, and turned away with Navis.
"Master, the second prince is ......"
"Uncle Lei, it's wrong to say more." Angelo raised his hand and directly interrupted what the person next to him was about to say, "Although my second brother and I are at odds with each other, he is the second prince of the empire after all. Besides, with his power, it may not be long before what you say now reaches his ears. ”
"It's a subordinate who has overstepped the rules."
Looking at the distant back, the two were silent for a moment before Angelo spoke again: "My sister, what has Dalena been doing lately?" ”
"Princess's words, it should be in the Nano Forest now."
"Hehe, that girl has a big heart. Some time ago, I was still making trouble at the beach, but now I have run into the mountains again. Angelo shook his head with a smile as the man's answer, he and Ronald were surprisingly consistent with each other, free-ranging and giving some protection, and this seemed to be the only thing they had in common.
"But I heard that the forest is a little uneven recently, I hope that girl can pay attention."
"Although Her Royal Highness the princess is a little lively, she is a measured person after all."
"Hehe, she...... If she had been measured, Ronald and I wouldn't have carried so many black pots when we were young. "That being said, Angelo didn't pay much attention to this matter, although Dalena, the princess, didn't know martial arts, but the four female guards around her were not vegetarians. To put it mildly, it's a bit exaggerated to take out a random one that can tear a tiger apart and single-handedly pick up a pack of wolves.
However, it is also true that their strength is superior, at least in Angelo's opinion, it should not be a problem to protect a person.
"Your Highness, what about those people? Although most of them are children of commoners, there are also many nobles ......" On the way back, Navis asked with some uncertainty. Although Ronald's attitude is obvious, the matter is so widely implicated that even he finds it a little tricky.
"Let them go back from where, and if they don't want to go back, send them there."
"Well, now it seems that this is the only way to go." The expected answer made Navis sigh a little helplessly.
Just a few days ago, the eldest prince Angelo sent more than a dozen girls to the villa, although these girls did not reach the level of calamity to the country and the people, but in terms of appearance, they were absolutely superior. In addition, he vaguely remembered the general content of the letter, and Ronald's black face after reading the letter.
But then again, his master has not been married for more than 20 years, and he doesn't even have a partner, so as a nobleman, it is indeed a bit ...... Well, failed. Of course, it is not completely hopeless, after all, in terms of someone's prestige, there are not a few people who want to marry Ronald at all. One of the biggest difficulties is that the main owner is completely unconscious in this regard, and he is worried about it for a while, but recently he seems to have seen a glimmer of hope?
