Section 5 First Morning Deliberations

"Huh??" her sleepy eyes widened slightly, and Alicia got up from the hotel bed in a daze. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info She felt as if she had a long, long dream, but she couldn't quite remember what it was. There are only a few hazy fragments in my mind, and the more I try to recall them, the more blurred these fragments become.

Forget it! Alicia shook her head and decided not to do all this useless work and to welcome the morning of the new day. I got up very early today, and Daron in the opposite room was probably still in bed, and she decided to go for an "early sneak attack" because of her pranks. Dressed in her shirt, Alicia opened the door to Talon's room, and she poked her head inside, only to find that Talon's bed was in good order, and the man was gone, along with the mercenary's equipment. Looking at the empty room, Alicia felt a trace of inexplicable melancholy in her heart for some reason.

"Huh!" "Hah!" rhythmic shouts came from the atrium of the hotel. Hearing this, Alicia rushed downstairs excitedly.

On the grass in the atrium, a man **** his upper body, showing his strong muscles, and regularly swinging the long sword in his hand. His body was covered with beads of sweat, and his hair was also half wet, and sweat dripped from the ends of his hair from time to time.

The early risers and hostesses, leaning against the wooden door of the kitchen, admired the man's posture, and from time to time let out exclamations and admiration.

After finishing his practice of swinging the knife a thousand times, Daron breathed a long sigh of relief, noticed the women in the direction of the kitchen, and smiled and posed for what he thought was handsome.

Ah~ His teeth gleamed in the sun. Alicia couldn't help but feel a little black at such a Darlon, and said to the women, "Boss, isn't breakfast okay?"

"Ah~~ rude and rude, patronizing to see the handsome guys, the guests' important breakfasts have been forgotten, what are you still looking at? Why don't you go cook and help!"

As the women scattered, Daron waved at Alicia and walked to the well to rinse herself. The well water poured from the top of the head is particularly cool after strenuous exercise, making people feel refreshed both physically and mentally. But the morning air was still a little cold, so Talon couldn't help but shiver.

"I'm going to catch a cold. Alicia held a towel she had found in the kitchen and handed it to Darlon.

"Don't worry, I'm sturdy. While wiping his body with a towel, Daron replied with a grin.

"No matter how strong you are, you'll catch a cold, unless you're stupid. ”

"Huh?"

"Originally, isn't there a saying that stupid people don't catch colds?"

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid, and I don't catch a cold. ”

"What a lot of confidence. ”

"Anyway, my body has also undergone large and small tempering, and after morning exercise, I will catch a cold or something, and I have nothing to do. ”

Alicia glanced at Darlon's bare upper body and did see many scars.

"Why are you staring at my nakedness?"

"Who stares at your nakedness, stinky pervert!" Alicia screamed in pain as she kicked Daron in the flank.

"It's a sturdy fart! It's called like this when you get kicked by a weak girl like me. ”

"Little, miss...... May I ask you where you look like a weak girl? Do weak girls use the word fart?"

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing......" Daron seemed to hear the demon murmuring......

"Hmph, I'm just kind to care about you, but you're my bodyguard, bodyguard, slave, and I won't spare you if you catch a cold like this. ”

"The first two titles are not bad, but the last one is a bit ......"

"Alright, let's get ready for breakfast. ”

"Hey......"

Daron changed his clothes and went downstairs, and found that some early guests were already eating, and in the corner Alicia had already chosen a table to eat, seeing the fragrant corn soup and toast on the table, Daron couldn't help but have a great appetite, and he wanted to eat it when he pounced on the table, but saw the proprietress graciously handed over a hot towel, so he scratched his head embarrassedly, obediently wiped his hands with a towel, and began to nibble on bread in the contemptuous gaze of Alicia on the other side.

"Yesterday I never thought I would be able to sit in a hotel like this and have breakfast. ”

"The breadcrumbs in your mouth are sprayed in my soup......"

"I'm sorry......" Daron took a sip of the soup and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. "Yesterday, I thought I was going to starve to death on the streets. ”

"Dad, aren't you just cheated out of a few copper coins?"

"Auntie, you must know that those 15 copper coins are all my belongings. ”

Hearing their conversation, several guests next to them showed inexplicable expressions. What is the relationship between these two people?

"Poor Ghost ......"

"It's better than you thief...... Ah!!h

The waiters who were cleaning in the distance were startled at the scream, but then they laughed heartily when they saw Daron holding his feet and jumping out of his chair and doing a strange dance with one foot.

"It's fun to be able to dance in the morning while I'm eating. ”

Daron squinted at Alicia and didn't reply, sitting at the table again after the pain in her feet was gone, and had to fill her stomach and replenish her strength before "fighting" with the naughty girl in front of her.

"But...... I always feel that the bounty is a bit small. ”

As she spoke, Alicia took out a small cowhide bag and tossed it in the air, with the pleasant sound of gold coins colliding with each other.

"In such a remote country, you should be content to get a bounty. It's only you who would think of running to the village chief's house late at night to ask for merit and reward. ”

"But when I saw the old village chief tear down his pillow and take out the bag of gold coins from it, I was a little embarrassed. ”

"You're really embarrassed to snatch that bag of gold coins...... The village chief must be hoping that someone can help him get rid of those bandits every day. That's why when he hears that you've helped him fulfill his long-cherished wish, he holds your hand and cries like that. ”

"He wears a pillow stuffed with gold coins every day, so he must not be able to sleep well. If you continue like this, sooner or later, you will have a heart attack. I also did a good deed to help him take away his demons. ”

"Isn't it true that righteous knights don't usually take money at this time?

"You've read too many novels, haven't you? Under normal circumstances, there is no one who doesn't collect money, and justice can't be used as food. ”

"Do you want to take the belly black route?"

"Belly Black Route...... What the hell is that? Anyway, you're complaining too much. ”

"Ah!! am I the one who seems to be nothing, but is indispensable?!"

"I've been saying something inexplicable since the beginning, hey, the character setting is going to become deformed?"

"Okay...... Back to business. ”

"Wow, suddenly a serious thing is up, it's not good!"

"It hurts, why are you hitting me?"

"Knock you back to square one!"

"Am I a youkai?!"

"Ah, it's comfortable~~"

"Actually, you just want to hit me, don't you?"

"Meow~" Alicia playfully put her hands on her face and made a kitten shape.

If I were the head of the village, I would never hand over the private money that I had hidden for two or three years to a demon like you. ”

"Hehe~ But thanks to the old village chief, we can live in such a hotel and have such a breakfast, thank you!"

"Don't say with tears in the corners of your eyes, clasped your hands together, the village chief, he's not dead yet......"

"I'm really worried that I won't get the bounty, after all, this is not a bounty mission announced by the government. If the village chief hadn't given us all this money, I would have felt the urge to take the place of that guy named Hackson. ”

"Miss, that's all you can do......

"So I didn't go, did I?"

"I feel like there's a real chance that could be a different route to the Raiders......"

"Don't worry, their bandit nest won't fit me, and I'm targeting all of Garbadia. ”

"I don't know what kind of person you are. ”

"Don't worry, I'll be a good host. ”

"Master, follow you, one day you will cheat your family and sell it as a slave. ”

"You're mine, of course I have the right to sell you, but I won't do that. ”

"That's really reassuring, who left me as bait to go treasure hunting alone?"

"Wow, good grudge......"

"The amount is your first offense, I don't care about you, and I don't take an example. ”

"Try to be as much as possible~"

"You......" Daron sighed, cleared his throat, lowered his voice, and said, "Alright, it's time to discuss the course of action for the future." Recovering the throne is not something that can be achieved overnight, and I think you have been thinking about it for a long time, right?"

Alicia nodded, and her expression changed to look at Daron seriously, "Actually, before that, I want to hear your thoughts first. ”

"About what?"

"Although you hate Karan and Yaga for having your father killed, reclaiming the throne is not revenge, and I wonder how high your consciousness is. ”

Daron laughed and said, "My body is not for nothing, and it will not be easy for me to be said to be muscular, simple-minded or something." Now that I've decided to help you accomplish your plan, I'll naturally suppress my emotions. ”

Alicia's eyes suddenly sharpened, and she leaned her face closer to Daron and asked seriously, "Are you sure?"

"Sure!" Daron straightened up, his voice unwavering, and looked back at Alicia with a determined look.

"That's good, I don't want a stupid guy to mess with the situation at a critical time. ”

“...... What about you? Can you endure this kind of hatred between the country and the family?"

In the face of Darron's questioning, Alicia replied as if she had been prepared, "Yes!

Daron smiled again, straightened himself back in his chair, and asked, "Is there any specific policy?"

Alicia smiled confidently, and only two words came out of her mouth, "Reinforcements!"

"Oh?" said Daron looked at her with interest, motioning for her to explain.

"Now the royal capital is already in Yejia's sphere of influence, but there is still one person who can give full trust. ”

"Who?"

"Chancellor Medz Walker. ”

"That old minister who is over 80 years old?"

"Well, he is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, he is tough, generous, and deeply popular, even Yejia does not dare to touch him easily. Moreover, he watched me grow up and supported my father to ascend to the throne, and his devotion to the orthodox throne must have been greater than that of a usurper. ”

"Others in the royal capital?"

"Yes, but the Prime Minister doesn't know the fact that I'm still alive, but if I go with the Queen's token, he'll recognize me. After all, it's been a full decade since we last met......"

Daron on the side of the "......" suddenly began to ponder, Alicia was curious and asked him why he suddenly stopped talking, so Daron kept his thinking posture and said,

"If we go so suddenly, maybe the old prime minister is not mentally prepared, and it will not be easy to do if someone discovers our whereabouts in the process of his hesitation. Besides, now that no one in the whole country knows the fact that the princess of Galbadia is still alive, if you suddenly appear and ask the prime minister to help you move the rescue troops, I am afraid that there will be no responders. Even if the prime minister believes you, the human heart is a difficult thing to control, and there may be voices of suspicion that will leave you alone. ”

"yes...... After all, ten years have passed, and ten years later, a princess suddenly jumped out one day and said that she was the orthodox heir to the throne, and the people who lived a down-to-earth life would definitely not accept it. What they want most is to live a peaceful life, and if I jump out at this time, it will be to provoke a war, which they don't want to see. ”

"That's right...... Why don't you do that?" Daron laughed suddenly, as if he had thought of a good idea.

"What's that?"

"We've done the opposite! You've been incognito for so many years, and now I feel like I need to spread the word. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Let's do something eye-catching, and make your identity known, the rumors will make your reputation go away, so that the fact that the princess of Galbadia is still alive will become the talk of the people after dinner, so that you can not be so sudden in the future uprising, give everyone a psychological preparation, but also to give those who support the orthodox throne some preparation time. ”

"That's a good suggestion! I don't see that Daron has a good brain!"

"That doesn't seem to be ......superfluous," Daron grimaced, bowing his head and continuing, "but there is also considerable risk in doing so. ”

"Well, you're saying you're going to get the attention of Yaga. ”

"That Kahlan seems to have an assassin among his men, and if he learns about you and sends someone to assassinate you, things will be in trouble. ”

"Daron can't beat them?"

"I'm not enough for one person!"

"Okay! I've decided!" Alicia stood up suddenly, her eyes shining golden.

"Huh?"

"I've decided!
