Chapter 384: Turning the Face
The freckled boy known as the prince is named Ron, a prince of the Duchy of Varenna and the youngest son of the Grand Duke of Varenna, who was found to have a relatively good talent for warlocks.
Originally, he was going to take him away, but Ron was too young to leave his parents, and after a period of coquettish pleading, his teacher didn't take him away.
However, in the absence of a force like the academy dedicated to teaching warlocks, Ron's progress was at a turtle speed, and so far he had only just accumulated enough mana to release one spell, that is, five mana.
Because there was no one else to compare with, he had always felt that his cultivation speed was good, and he was complacent about it, and developed an arrogant character.
This time, he came out to visit another human empire, but he didn't expect to receive the news that Archduke Varenna was seriously ill, so he hurried back.
However, when passing through the mountains, in order to rush back as soon as possible, he rejected the suggestion of the leader of the guard to take a detour, intending to pass directly through the mountains, only to encounter the centaur tribe.
Originally, he thought that with the strength of the leader of the Black Iron Realm, plus that he was a warlock, he was just a centaur tribe, and that it was just a matter of being able to destroy it, and it was no longer a simple matter.
Who knew that this centaur tribe had three beings in the Black Iron Realm, and when he faced the battle, he was very shamefully timid, and he couldn't even stand on his feet in battle, let alone mobilize mana to release spells.
So there are only six of his twelve guards left, and most of the remaining guards are also colorful, and their combat power has been greatly reduced.
"Your Royal Highness, there is someone ahead. ”
As soon as he stepped out of the forest, the leader of the guards, who followed Ron, whispered a reminder to Ron, because just in front of them, there was a man and an eagle swimming in a grilled fish.
Seeing the frightened and oily grilled fish that was grilled, not to mention the people on the side, even Ron's stomach grumbled in protest, making his freckled face redden.
He glanced at the guards next to him, saw that everyone was salivating, and gritted his teeth and said to the leader of the guards, "Uncle Mike, do you still have gold coins on you?"
"Yes, Your Royal Highness the Prince, do you want to?"
"Let's let everyone eat two bites, running on an empty stomach itself will be much worse, the speed reaction will be slower, and ......" Ron's eyes were a little cloudy, although he didn't say anything, but Mike immediately understood what His Royal Highness the prince meant.
"Since the prince said so, then do as you wish. ”
Mike nodded, and said sorry to the human and the giant eagle in his heart, but the other party should feel honored as a human to sacrifice for the prince.
The two of them summed it up and ran towards the grilled fish.
Sitting there was a teenager and a very large giant eagle.
The young man, with his long inky hair, looked smaller than Ron's, was expertly dressing the grilled fish, and seemed to be enjoying the process.
And the giant eagle was very huge, and now it kept its wings folded, it was three meters tall, and Ron's eyes were hot to watch, although the giant eagle could not carry them all, but just him and the captain of the guard were more than enough.
Let's hope it will work out.
Ron thought silently in his mind.
Regarding the arrival of Ron and his party, this person and eagle only glanced at it casually and did not make any indications.
Ron stepped forward and said, "Sir, I'm sorry to bother you, we've been on the road for a few days, we've barely eaten, and we're already hungry...... I don't know if you two can give us some barbecue, and we can buy it with gold. ”
One minute.
Two minutes.
Three minutes.
The centaurs were about to catch up, but there was still no reaction from the other party, and the boy still carefully brushed the spices as if he hadn't heard Ron's words.
Mike, the leader of the guards, was furious at the boy's reaction, and although they had bad intentions, he was really upset that the other party ignored them so much.
The guards in the back were also angry when they saw that their prince was being ignored, and wanted to teach this young man who didn't know what to do a lesson, but was stopped by Ron's eyes.
"This gentleman, I am Ron Prince of the Duchy of Valenna, and I am now being hunted by centaurs, for the sake of fellow humans, can you give us some grilled fish so that we can have the strength to escape. ”
"Oh, aren't you going to eat my grilled fish and then snatch my eagle?" the boy looked up, revealing his starry eyes, but at the moment they were full of playfulness, as if he was seeing something interesting.
He got it.
The thought rose in Ron's mind, and then a wave of shame filled his chest, and his cheeks turned red, and he felt like a circus clown in the eyes of the other party, so funny.
At this moment, the young man in front of him said abruptly: "Just kidding, as for being so serious." ”
"Huh?"
Ron paused for a moment, looking at the smiling young man in front of him, and couldn't figure out for a moment whether what the other party said was true or false, but he quickly settled down.
No matter what the boy in front of him said is true or false, as long as he can get the giant eagle, they can't deal with those centaurs, and can't they deal with a human boy?
"Hehe, yes, maybe it's because I've been hunted for a long time, and I haven't eaten for a long time, so I'm a little too sensitive. ”
Ron explained dryly, for some reason, under the deep eyes of the young man, he always felt that he could not hide any secrets.
"Oh, then you wait a minute, this grilled fish will be almost ready, and then you will eat a little to cushion your stomach. The boy nodded.
"Phew. Then the eagle barked at the boy.
I saw that the young man looked like he had a headache and said to the giant eagle: "Okay, okay, I'll give you food first, I'll give you food first." ”
After pacifying the giant eagle, the young man turned his head with a hint of shyness on his face: "That, my eagle wants to eat first, and the fish it catches at this time, you can see ......"
Ron was still thinking about how he could be offended by relying on the giant eagle to carry him away from here, so he hurriedly said, "Give it to it, it doesn't matter if we eat it later." ”
As soon as he said that, Ron felt the giant eagle's gaze soften a little towards him, and suddenly felt that he had taken the right step.
"Aren't you being chased by centaurs?
Ron knew that the centaurs were about to rush out at the edge of the forest at this time, but he still replied politely, "It's okay, those centaurs won't catch up for a while." ”
"Really?"
Hearing this, Ron's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up a little, but he still nodded in response, "Really." ”
"That's good, wait a minute, this fish is highly poisonous, and it must be fully cooked to the poison before it disappears, otherwise it will be fatal...... As for gold coins or something, you don't have to, it's fate to meet it, so I'll treat it as if I invited you. The boy said with a smile.
"This, how embarrassing is this. Ron said.
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, that's it. The young man's tone could not be refused, and then he smiled again: "We are all human beings, we should help each other in this world, just a little fish and meat, what is it?"
At this time, several centaurs had already come out of the forest and walked slowly towards them, and seeing this, Mike, the leader of the guard, said to the black-haired boy, "This gentleman, we still have urgent things to do, why don't you give us the grilled fish first." ”
"Don't you understand what I just said?"
The black-haired and black-eyed boy's face suddenly turned cold.
