Although I don't know the road, I'm a little clown out of wandering around. But Egil is Egil. The Norman Emperor lived up to his name. When he found the maid of the palace who was willing to show him the way, and then went all the way back to the palace that Her Royal Highness had prepared for him, and when he saw the angry "Artoria who was angry because he didn't return all night", Egil had a good reason.
"Ahauh... Well, I don't know why, I wanted to get lost, so I didn't come back until now. I'm really sorry. Egil rubbed his hair in shame. It's true that something happened [Shin God Slaughter Group]. But it's easy to misunderstand when it comes to timing.
"Is that so?" said Artoria, slightly disbelieving and looking at Egil with a frown.
"Of course it's true. Egil nodded, looking at Artoria more seriously than he had told Lilianu last night that he had found Atlantis: "I never lie, and this lady next to me can prove it to me." ”
So Artoria turned her face again and looked at the maid with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Ah-indeed, that's true.
The palace maid nodded, looking a little nervous under Artoria's slightly sharp gaze: "Your Majesty looked very confused before I met him......
"I see. After listening to the maid's explanation, Artoria breathed a sigh of relief - of course, a more important reason was that Artoria carefully examined the courtmaid's appearance and posture - although it was said that it was superior to the average person. However, it was not within Egil's garrison. And the gaze that looked at Egil didn't feel like a call. In other words, nothing happened between her and Egil. It shouldn't have been done something unseemly...... , although Egil has always had no lower limit, but his vision is very high. Looking at the maids in the Krakow court, he didn't touch any of them, and you can understand this truth.
"Well, you must be tired too. Go and take a break. After thinking about it for a while, Artoria began to feel sorry for her husband again. He took Egil's hand and walked in the direction of the bedroom.
"Alright, you can go. Sonia next to her said to the palace maid.
In this way, Egil once again got through a difficult situation with his ingenuity and ability to adapt to the situation. Everyone applauded.
Egil woke up in the afternoon. When I woke up, I felt so hungry that I didn't have any strength in my body. It doesn't seem like it's a good thing to stay up late without sleeping. Immediately afterward, Egil realized that something very heavy seemed to be weighed on him. When I looked down, I saw Artoria with his mouth open and drooling a lot on his chest.
It seems that the Norman queen was not able to get a good night's sleep last night. Thinking of this, Egil felt pity for her, and reached out and gently stroked Artoria's hair, while whispering, "Thank you for your hard work, Hani." ”
However, just as Egil was immersed in the good time spent with his lover and couldn't extricate himself, Sonya's neutral, slightly hoarse voice suddenly came from the door.
"The hosts. A couple of Greeks came to the door. They said that their princess, Lilianu, had sent her to invite her master. ”
"That's right...... Egir tapped his head, remembering that when we parted in the early morning, Lilianu had indeed told him that she would invite herself over to listen to her play the piano in the afternoon. Well, the people who came here for a while must be for this.
"What's the matter...... And at this moment, Artoria also woke up in a daze, propped herself up, felt the corners of her mouth a little wet, and reached out to wipe it. When I looked down again, I saw that Egil's chest was also covered with saliva, and he blushed slightly.
"It's all right, I'll change my clothes in a moment and I'll go - go tell them and I'll be there at once. Egil nodded, winking at Sonya. Sonia suddenly had a heart to lead the meeting. ...,
"What's going on?" Artoria came to her senses and asked Egil like that.
"It's okay Hani, it's just that something happened to the army and there was a little conflict with the Greeks. I'll just go over and fix it. Egil said.
"Is that so?" Artoria asked, turning to Sonia again.
"That's it, Your Highness. Sonia nodded yes. Cover for Egil.
"Oh...... Whoever makes trouble will cut them down, and that's it......" After saying that, Artoria fell asleep on the bed in a daze. Egil, on the other hand, got up, changed his clothes with the help of Sonya, and then admonished him.
"Look at the Queen. I'll be right back. ”
"That...... ," Sonia said and stopped.
"What's wrong?" asked Egil, turning to Sonya.
"The host...... , between you and that princess really... Forehead...... ," Sonia looked into Egil's eyes, "The subordinates are not... Subordinates are just ...... , that ......"
"How is that possible! Not telling Artoria was just afraid she would lose her temper. Egil touched Sonya's head and ruffled her hair: "Random suspicion of the master, should be punished." ”
"Uh-huh......" Sonya, who felt very comfortable, smiled because she was touched by Egil and messed up her hair. However, there was distrust in his eyes.
"I'm lying again......" Sonia thought to herself. Then he made up his mind to follow Egil to see what was going on.
As a result, the Norman Empire's second-ranked super assassin went into action. Egil has been a lot tougher in recent times. But without paying special attention, it was not found that there was a tail behind him. Just like that, he followed the ladies of the Eastern Rome and walked towards the court where Lilianu was.
After walking for nearly twenty minutes, several court ladies led Egil to a secluded courtyard, where a fountain of a pool beside her, and a Greek-style white marble pavilion, where Lilianu, dressed in red, held a glittering harp and smiled at Egil. And the palace ladies all left with interest.
"It's a good place. Egir nodded, then walked briskly, sat down next to Lilianu, reached out and picked a grape from the fruit bowl on the table next to him, threw it into his mouth, and then said, "Secluded." ”
"Definitely. Lilianu nodded, "I think so too." It was also difficult for me to find such a place. I don't know which emperor in history liked to enjoy the construction. It had been abandoned for a while. It took me a long time to get this place in order. ”
"Not bad, indeed. Egil complimented again, then grabbed another apple and nibbled on it.
"I'm not here to let you eat. Looking at Egil's appearance, Lilianu couldn't help but laugh.
"I can't help it—I didn't eat much at dinner yesterday, and then you pulled me out. I made up for sleep when I got back. When I woke up, I was called by you again, and I didn't even eat a bite of food. After eating the apple, Egil took a piece of watermelon in his hand.
"So, it's mine that I'm not leaving. When Lilianu had said that, she chuckled and put down her harp and clapped her hands.
"Someone. Beside him, a few people suddenly appeared in a few seemingly unoccupied corners—of course, they were no match for Sonya's second-rate means of concealment. So it was discovered by Egil a long time ago. Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor was not surprised.
"Go to the kitchen and tell the chefs to prepare a feast. The main palace is going to have a banquet for the Norman emperor here. When Lilianu had said this, the men bowed and left.
"Of course, the necessary security work is also needed. Lilianu chuckled, "After all, our identities are different. ”
"I agree with it. From beginning to end, he felt that the emperor who was privately interviewed by Weifu was brain-dead, and Egil nodded and said: "Willful or indulgent at will, that and things should not appear to us." The safety of your own life should be the highest priority at all times. That's what I've always thought. ”
"Definitely. Lilianu nodded, too: "Egil, you are very good in every sense of the word—but it seems that accepting the invitation of the ruler of another country to come alone does not seem to be in line with what you said before." ”...,
"Who said that. Egil chuckled, "I also have a very powerful bodyguard here." ”
Sonya, who was lurking in the grass next to her, was slightly surprised when she heard this: "Could it be that Your Majesty has already noticed me?"
"Is that so?" said Lilianu.
"Of course, I trust him so much that I dare to relax a little bit about my own safety. Otherwise, Lilianu will not just see Egir, but the Norman Emperor under the protection of hundreds of heavily armed guards. ”
"So my master trusts me so much—I should have worked harder!" said Sonia in the grass, and her spirits lifted and she became more vigilant.
"Uh-huh-hmm...... Egil, you're really good at telling jokes. Lilianu chuckled. After that, he picked up the harp again: "Anyway, before the food is ready, will you listen to me play the piano?"
"That's why I'm here. Egil nodded.
So Lilianu began to play. Elegant and beautiful music, with the delicate plucking of the slender fingers of the Greek princess, spreads from between the strings. Even someone like Egil, who doesn't know anything about music, can see the beauty in it.
"It was a noble and lonely feeling, pretentious, and a heart higher than the sky...... , as if those wonderful sculptures, scrolls, and magnificent palaces belonged to the voice of a princess..."Egil sighed secretly in his heart: "It is impossible for such a person to make an empire strong. ”
