Chapter Eighty-Six: Settled
Lin Yuan plucked his ears. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
He seemed to have heard something ridiculous.
He looked at Buckfere, and the other party was not lying.
ā...... You mean...... Princess Alice died a year ago?"
Buckfere, who frowned, nodded heavily.
"It happened a few days before the curse in my body, Princess Alice was already frail and sickly, she had congenital heart problems, and modern medicine or magic could not cure it, and she was able to live to the age of fifteen, which is already precious......"
So what did I see at school? Lin Yuan kept blinking his eyes, the princess he saw was so energetic that he was able to defeat all the student magisters of the same grade on the first day of school.
ā...... At that time, was Princess Alice's death announced?"
Buckfere shook his head, and then he seemed to have noticed something, and asked Lin Yuan, "Could it be ...... Is Princess Alice still alive and well in the eyes of others?"
After Buckfere's exile to Bellabette, he fell into frustration and confusion, did not collect information about the Kingdom of Kennedia, and the communication channels here were blocked, and it was difficult to know about the outside world.
"I know what you're thinking, you're trying to say it's another stand-in......, right?
Lin Yuan always felt that things were not so simple, and the attitude he observed towards Princess Alice did not look like a stand-in.
Moreover, it is too risky to let a stand-in come all the way to study in the magic school on Earth, and the Vientiane Research Society should not be so stupid.
"Anyway, you take a look at this first. ā
Lin Yuan changed into Naraku's shadow and found a copy of the preservation paper from the storage space.
The pitch-black shadow stretched out a tentacle, rolled up the paper, and handed it to Buckfere.
Buckfere looked at the shadow tentacles, and then took the information without hesitation.
"It's ......"
This is a photocopy of a newspaper report about Princess Alice's visit to Earth to study.
Buckferre read the article carefully, and there was a profile photo of Princess Alice, taken by a reporter when she came to Earth.
"This countenance...... Princess Alice, yes......"
Buckfere thinks that this is also a stand-in, but he doesn't understand why he wants a fake girl to risk coming to Earth to study.
"It is said that it is the wish of your Majesty the King to bring your daughter to study on Earth. ā
Lin Yuan once again took out another related news report from Naraku's Shadow, which was a report on a visit to the envoy of the Kingdom of Kennedia.
Looking at the information in his hand, Buckferi was even more puzzled, His Majesty the King should be controlled by the Vientiane Research Society, then this should also be part of their plan, but there was a sense of disobedience in his heart.
Lin Yuan also had a sense of incongruity, if the purpose of the Vientiane Research Society was to open a spatial rift channel on the earth and let the monsters come to the earth to destroy, there was no need to send a stand-in who was a princess, they obviously already had other chess pieces, and such insurance seemed a bit redundant.
"Perhaps, things are far more complicated than you think. Lin Yuan smiled in a low voice.
A thought crossed Buckfere's mind, a guess he didn't want to believe anyway.
Lin Yuan no longer thinks about this kind of thing that has nothing to do with him, anyway, the truth will be revealed one day.
He looked up at Buckfere, who was in deep thought.
"Buckfere, you still have confusion in your heart, but since you are willing to remove the curse from your body, it proves that you have made up your mind, right?"
Buckfere stopped thinking negatively, and looked from the information in his hand to Lin Yuan, who was smiling.
ā...... Yes...... I want to save my family...... I've wasted too much time........."
During this year, Buckfere did not think about lifting the curse on his body, but in this border area of the human race, there were no mages who were smart enough to help him, and his relatives who were scrupled about controlling the ** in their hearts, did not take the initiative to ask for help.
It wasn't until he met Lin Yuan, facing a huge army of necromancy, and after facing a fierce battle of life and death, that he saw his true thoughts clearly.
He must save the people he loves the most.
"Although the fastest way to save the Valba royal family is to directly seek out the Wizard Alliance or the Spell Council, I don't think you want to take risks, and you are already my oath, so I am reluctant to let you go like this. ā
Lin Yuan held his chin and looked at Buckfere, who had made a decision.
"Of course, I won't limit your goals, and if you want to rescue them, I won't stop you, but you don't have a complete plan yet, do you?
Buckfere quickly agreed, he knew that he had no right to choose, and it was already rare for Lin Yuan to treat him so leniently.
Lin Yuan smiled with satisfaction, although he wanted to let the famous Steel Sword King leave in the future, it was a very reasonable arrangement if he could interfere with the plans of the Vientiane Research Association.
"So...... I ask you to go to work at once. ā
Lin Yuan clapped his hands lightly, and the door of the dining room opened gently.
A tall figure walked in, and then he bent down and bowed ninety degrees to Lin Yuan.
"Lord, it's rude!"
Wu Qiu and Buckfere looked at the visitor in astonishment, they couldn't have guessed that they would see such a figure here.
Lin Yuan smiled and introduced the people to Wu Qiu and Buck.
"His name is Ayati Lightningblade, and as you can see, he is a male Oak. ā
The two-meter-tall Green Pioke nodded politely to Wu Qiu and Buckfere, and the partner, who was still in a state of shock, subconsciously responded to each other.
"Oak...... Asian?"
Wu Qiu, who was still shocked by his partner's true identity before, was shocked by the more powerful impact and conduct.
"Wait a minute...... I think I just heard him speaking our language?"
Yati Lightning Blade showed a humanized wry smile and nodded at Wu Qiu.
"Sir, I know your surprise, but please don't compare me to those subhumans of lower intelligence, I am a higher intelligence created by the Lord, and although my bloodline is from Oak, I am already a different creature. ā
Wu Qiu was ignorant, and the fact that Yaren was able to speak fluently had already shaken his worldview.
Buckfere quickly calmed down, and then carefully observed the Oak.
Standing over two meters tall and still with his trademark dark green skin, Okyati has a strong physique, wears a slightly ill-fitting set of leather armor, and has a large sword hanging from his back.
Buckfere noticed that the other party's appearance was somewhat different from that of the Asian Oak.
Arti's facial features are softer, very close to the appearance of a human, not like a beast like the Yaren Oak, and the two fangs on his chin are not thick and long, only five or six centimeters long, which is completely different from the thirty centimeter-long fangs of the adult Asian Oak.
This is an Oak that is closer to a human than a subhuman.
"You two are both masters of swords, so I asked you to teach Yati swordsmanship, and sure enough, Greenskin is going to be a sword master. ā
Then Lin Yuan took out a few documents and seals and put them in front of Wu Qiu and Buckfere.
"In addition to educating Yati, my defense work in the forefront of the city in the East will be handed over to you, congratulations on officially becoming the lord of a city. ā
Wu Qiu didn't know what expression to make, he looked at the document in front of him, on which Wu Qiu's name was written, as well as Buckfere's previous Ah Shen title, indicating that they would become the administrators of a city-state together.
"But...... I don't know anything about managing a city or something...... Is it really okay to be so casual?" Wu Qiu said with a slight stammer.
He didn't expect things to develop like this at all, they were enemies yesterday, but they could easily gain Lin Yuan's trust and entrust a city.
Lin Yuan smiled and gave a thumbs up.
"Don't worry, you can leave the handling of internal affairs to others, you only need to rely on your strength to drive away all the enemies who come to attack, I am very optimistic about you. ā
So, the matter was settled.
