Chapter 321: Secret Talk
Behind Eric was none other than Princess Mia, who had invited them to come here for a vacation. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ At this time, she was wearing a pale yellow shawl and light-colored pajamas underneath, which was quite different from the dignified and noble image during the day, but it was equally beautiful and elegant.
Princess Mia asked, "What?" Is it because the room is not suitable and I can't sleep? β
"No, your hospitality was very attentive...... A little too thoughtful, I was a little flattered. Eric smiled and said, "I just can't sleep." β
"Me too." Princess Mia came to him, and also lay down on the railing of the pond, and asked, "What about her?" β
"Raven? I guess I'm already asleep at this time. β
Raven also has a regular routine of going to bed early and waking up early, so Eric didn't go to her room to disturb her.
After a moment of silence, Eric asked again, "You seem to be busy lately." β
"Me? Oh, yes. Mia shrugged, "You heard it during the meal, he's been like this since that forced marriage, saying that since he is going to inherit the throne, he must show something he deserves...... You must think so, right? This system of hereditary thrones is really stupid. β
Eric couldn't help but laugh, "I didn't expect this to come from the mouth of the heir to the throne." β
"I really think so." She sighed, "At the end of the day, I'm not a good fit for this position at all...... Maybe my birth was a mistake at all. β
"Don't be so pessimistic, everyone is born for a reason." Eric's gaze also turned to the moonlit water, and said, "That's what I believe...... God never gives people an unacceptable fate. β
"Is that so?"
She still looked at the tranquil water, and little by little the vitality returned to her eyes.
Finally, she smiled heartily: "Maybe that's true." It's incredible, and when I hear you say that, I feel like I really believe I can. β
She took a deep breath and turned around.
"Alright, I've got a lot of things to do tomorrow, and I need to go back to sleep...... Thank you. β
"I didn't do anything." Eric spread his hands.
Princess Mia chuckled and waved at him.
"Good night, you go to bed early."
"Well, good night."
The slender figure walked on the cobblestone pavement and disappeared behind the trees, and soon disappeared without a trace.
With a long yawn, Eric finally felt a little tired and ready to go back to sleep.
And just as he was stepping on the cobblestone road and crossing the long forest ** on the way back to his house, a certain dangerous aura suddenly caught him.
Eric paused suddenly.
A gust of wind blew through the shadows of the trees, rustling the leaves, and the swaying branches looked terrifying in the moonlight as if they were claws dancing on the ground. The aura of danger seemed to be mixed with this gust of wind, and the moment it passed through Eric's body, it brought a chill to the bone.
He knew the aura, and the deepening fusion with the armor of the Amozo allowed him to sense the remarkable aura released by some of the enemies he had fought - for example, now, but unfortunately he couldn't remember which person it belonged to right now.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to turn around and walk along the dense forest.
He faintly heard the sound of conversation, and the closer he got to it, the more obvious the breath became. Estimating that he was almost close, he crouched down behind a bush, and opened a gap between the leaves, surveying the outside.
Approaching Eric was a rather burly man with his back in Eric's direction, unable to see any more details about him due to a dark cloak that dragged to the ground, but he was sure that the dangerous aura had been released from the man. As for the other person in the conversation, he was blocked by the man's burly body, and he couldn't see clearly.
The voices of their conversations were very low, especially the man in the cloak, whose voice was as hoarse as if it had been handled by a voice changer, and it was really difficult to distinguish the content. Eric only vaguely heard words like "Project Red" and "Deal", and seemed to mention a string of addresses.
Thinking about the day, Mia does seem to have mentioned some leaks of classified information, and it seems that the two people in front of her should be the culprits.
If he made a move at this time, Eric would have a certain certainty of subduing them. In this way, it should be regarded as helping Princess Mia solve a trouble, right?
But he didn't strike right away.
Anyway, he's just an outsider who has been invited to visit, and he's not sure whether he should meddle in other people's household affairs. At present, he did not know the details of this incident, and if he acted rashly without understanding what the situation was, he might be involved in some unnecessary trouble.
The last thing he needs now is to be involved in new trouble.
He was still hesitating, but soon, he lost the opportunity to hesitate.
The man in the cloak turned his head coldly, revealing the iron-blue face under the hood - not an exaggeration, but a real iron-blue mask, and the gaze in his exposed eyes seemed to have a sharp blade, which made people shudder.
It was a second before I realized that my existence was exposed. Without thinking, Eric was a tumbling on the spot, his armor unfolding at the same time, covering every inch of his body in a matter of seconds.
The energy blast exploded almost instantaneously at where he had been, kicking up a cloud of dust that penetrated the armor's shell and sent a chill through the armor.
Raising his head in a half-squatting position, Eric finally saw the man's front clearly--all covered in iron-colored armor, metal fists burning with pale green flames, a dark green cloak flying domineeringly under the moonlight, and an aura belonging to a king greeted him.
Eric finally remembered who this unpleasant aura belonged to - Victor von Doom, King of Latvia, also known as Doctor Doom.
It's a coincidence, the last time I married Doctor Doom happened to be for the sake of Sincariland, but this time their reunion was in Sincarilland...... Is this a coincidence?
Eric glanced behind him deliberately, noticing that the man he had just spoken to was nowhere to be seen.
βAmozo-Alphaγβ Doctor Doom said lightly, "It's a bit unexpected to meet here, but as I said last time - anger Doom, sooner or later you will pay the price, and it looks like today." β
