After hearing the little girl's words, the eyes of these nobles immediately changed. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Of course, even if it changes, it is different. The young nobles just looked at the girl in front of them with curiosity and amazement, after all, Offariel was very beautiful, and had long violet hair, and no one who lived in the royal city did not know that it was the sign of the royal family. But those slightly older nobles were surprised with a bit of incredulity, and they even stood a little sluggishly in place, staring at the girl in front of them, not knowing what to say at all.

Ofaryl's expression flickered a slight stiffness at the sight of their eyes, but she quickly returned to her original posture, then helped the girl up with a smile and took a few steps back.

"It's okay, then, goodbye. ”

With that, Offariel nodded to the girl, and then she turned away, intending to leave with Yuren. At this moment, an elderly man among the nobles suddenly walked out of the crowd and strode towards O'Faryl, and then the old man hurriedly took off his top hat, put it on his chest, and half-knelt in front of O'Fariel, raised his head, and looked at her excitedly.

"Your Royal Highness Princess O'Fariel, are you back? You're finally back?!!"

"I ............"

Faced with the surprising behavior of the old man in front of him, Ofaril was also stunned for a while, and he didn't know what to say at all. However, she reacted quickly, and Ofariel immediately retreated to Yuren's side, and then flipped up her cloak to hide her face.

"I'm sorry, sir, you misidentified the wrong person. ”

"No, I'm not mistaken, Your Highness Princess! You must be Her Highness Princess! That's right!"

As he spoke, the old man became more and more excited.

"I didn't believe you would die, I knew you would come back!

“............... Lord Yuren........."

Facing the excited old man, O'Faryl lowered her head deeply, she stretched out her hand, and tightly grabbed the corner of Yurien's clothes, although under the cover of the cloak, Yulian couldn't see her expression clearly, but from O'Faryl's faintly trembling voice, she still felt what she was trying to hide in her heart.

"It's getting late...... We ......"

"It's time for us to go. ”

Yuren said, grabbing Ofaril with his backhand, and quickly stepped onto the train. The old man was still half-kneeling, staring at Ofariel's back.

"Your Royal Highness, we are up to you! Rest assured, no matter what, we will be on your side!!"

The old man's voice was so loud that it attracted the attention of the others for a while, and they all looked at this side curiously, not knowing what was happening. After all, there is no one who lives in the royal city who does not know that His Majesty the King does not have any heirs, and naturally no one can be called "Her Royal Highness the Princess", so whose name is this old nobleman calling and why is he so excited?

Seeing that the attention of the people around him was focused on this side, the other middle-aged man looked a little embarrassed, he hurriedly walked to the old man's side and slowly helped him up.

"Father, you are so excited, you must be a little tired because of the fatigue of the journey. Let's go home and rest at once, don't ......... here."

"Nonsense!"

The old man glared at the middle-aged man fiercely, and then broke free of his support.

"I'm old, but my brain isn't bad! My surname is good, I think you forgot your surname, huh? You and Her Royal Highness the princess haven't met ten times and eight times, can't you remember her appearance?!"

"But ........."

was reprimanded by the old nobleman, but the middle-aged man had no way to refute anything, but in the end he still spoke up.

"But...... Thirty years have passed, and even if Her Royal Highness the Princess is still alive, it is impossible to calculate........."

"The princess is an extraordinary person, how can she be inferred by common sense!"

The old nobleman snorted, and then took the cane from the servant next to him.

"If that's not the case, then how do you explain her hair color, and where else can you see such pure blood in the royal family after Her Royal Highness Princess O'Faryl?"

"This ............"

Hearing the old nobleman's rhetorical question, the middle-aged man couldn't find any reason for a while. Indeed, after the former flower of the kingdom, there was no pure bloodline trait in the entire royal family. West V had no heirs, and although the rest of the collateral lines had children, almost no royal bloodline was visible. Moreover, since West's ability to govern the country was not very good, although it did not make the people feel miserable, it was still worse. Therefore, behind the scenes, there are also many rumors that the former glory of the Western royal family may be gone forever. And now, they can also see very clearly that this girl not only looks exactly the same as Her Royal Highness Princess Ofaryl back then, but also has long violet hair, the bright color and the aura that flashes in the sun, all of which prove the true identity of the other party.

But...... What's going on here?

Before the middle-aged man could think clearly, the old nobleman had already paused heavily to put down his cane, and then gave an order with a serious face.

"Alright, if it's all right, you can go home! I'm going to go to the royal city again!"

"Father!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man immediately exclaimed in surprise.

"Didn't you just come back? Why do you have to ......?"

"I have my business to do, you all go back, if you want to come along, hurry!

After the old man finished speaking, he glanced at the carriage in front of him with a complicated face, then picked up his cane and walked back to the train step by step. The middle-aged man looked embarrassed, and finally, he sighed helplessly, and then whispered a few orders to the clansmen next to him, then looked around, and then quickly followed behind the old man, and re-entered the train.

After a crisp ringing of bells, the train started slowly again, speeding towards the royal city. Yuren sat by the window, enjoying the scenery outside, while leisurely drinking the drinks provided in the car. Offariel, on the other hand, was unusually depressed at the moment, and she completely wrapped herself in the black cloak, and said no more.

"Surprised?"

In the end, it was Yulian who broke the silence.

"That's right......"

O'Faryl smiled wryly, then nodded.

"I thought that thirty years had passed, and that it should be about the same, if not completely forgotten...... I really didn't expect it to be like this. ”

"Isn't that great? ”

"I'm not worried about that. ”

Hearing Yuren's slightly mocking response, Ofariel seemed a little uneasy, and she looked out the door, and in the hallway, the soldiers of the Royal City Guards were whispering something to each other, looking over from time to time. Although they were in a separate room at the moment, and it was unlikely that anyone outside could hear their conversation, the expressions of these soldiers were very complicated.

"I always felt that the kingdom might be going in a bad direction. ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Yulian narrowed his eyes rather interestingly.

"How so?"

"Because of the chance encounter just now. ”

Offariel's voice was low.

"It is true that I have done some things that are popular, and I have made some proposals that are in the interests of all classes, but there are very few nobles with whom I have close friends. Like the old gentleman just now, if my memory is correct, he should have been the official in charge of the infrastructure construction of the royal city before, and I have only dealt with him more than ten times. In any case, there is no reason for the other person to remember me like this......... But just now, he was able to salute me with such certainty, which means that he naturally recognized me. I'm really worried...... In general, people don't remember a person unless they miss him repeatedly. And if after my death, the next king can govern the country better, then people will never remember me so deeply......... This is especially true within the royal city. After all, if it's in those border areas, it's easy to understand. But even these people, who enjoyed the gospel of the source and lived comfortably in the royal city, kept remembering the words of the past........."

Oddalyl let out a long sigh.

"I'm really worried about what's going to happen next......... Or rather, I never thought things would change so quickly......"

"Is this your judgment as a princess?"

Yuren didn't look back, still staring at the scenery outside the window, but his words immediately brought a strange silence to the room.

After a few moments, O'Faryl shook his head.

"I'm not a princess anymore, Lord Yuren. ”

"Are you interested in being this princess again?

“............ I do not know. ”

Eventually, in the face of Yuren's inquiry, Ofariel lowered her head and chose to escape.

"I really don't know, Lord-sama Yuren, I thought I was completely isolated from my past...... But ........."

"It doesn't matter. ”

Offariel didn't finish her sentence when Julien interrupted her.

"You've got time to think about it, trust me, you'll be able to draw conclusions. ”

For the rest of the way, Yulian didn't speak again, and Ofaril was so absorbed in his own thoughts that he didn't know what he was thinking. However, the train did not change in any way due to the mood swings of the passengers, and it still ran smoothly on the tracks, heading towards the Intramus.

Through the clear crystal window, Yulian can clearly see the scenery inside the royal city, and each source city will be differentiated due to the different surnames of the source. For example, the night capital of Orrut is named because its source city exudes a large amount of Mana's power at night. The same is true of West's royal city, which he had heard from Offariel before he came, and it was called the "City of the Winds" because of the flow of Mana, which brought wind to the city, and wherever it was, there was always a trace of the wind. Of course, these are usually breezes, and according to Offariel, when confronted by an external enemy, the Source will also activate its own defenses, summoning a storm to encircle the entire city and fend off the attack. However, because of this, Yulian completely saw the weakness here, since it is a city of sources characterized by wind, and the Sith Empire, according to Judy's report, also has a talented knight who controls the wind, then once the two sides fight, this royal city will definitely fall, and maybe it will be easier than imagined.

After all, the power of the elements, and the power of faith, are absolute.

Because of this, the buildings of King West, in order to move with the wind, have adopted a rather streamlined design, and from the train, the entire royal capital seems to be made of ribbons as delicate and beautiful. No matter how tall or low the houses are, there are hardly any corners to be seen, but they are sleek and intertwined, spiraling to form a building. The castle in the middle of the royal city is even more eye-catching, and from a distance, it looks like three silver bands rising from the ground, twisting, entwining, and tying each other together, full of streamlined style. Of course, this is only a distant view, as long as you walk in front of it, you can feel what a huge and majestic building this royal city within a royal city is.

However, Yulian clearly did not care about the things used to show the majesty of the ruler to the people, instead, he subconsciously looked towards the sides of the Silver Belt City, and soon saw two buildings that he should have seen a long time ago.

It was a dark, towering minaret, and near its stout trunk, four or five small towers stood scattered. The magical light on it is intertwined, forming a complex and beautiful and mysterious pattern. On the opposite side of it was a conical building about the same height, which was obviously much more modest than the wonderful magic tower, but its glittering appearance also attracted the attention of many people.

Sure enough, it is the same in any era, in any country, everywhere.

Yulian withdrew his gaze and no longer admired the scenery outside. It was the building of the Mage Guild and the Church of Grace, and in general, unless it was a country that was particularly biased towards one side or the other, it had always been the scene in Fountain City, where kingship, magic, and grace coexisted, and a complex and boring relationship was intertwined.

Sometimes, though, it's a great way to take advantage of that relationship.

Thinking of this, the corners of You Lian's mouth curled slightly, revealing a hint of pride, which was too easy for him...... He had already made his decision. If His Majesty dared to do something to himself, then he wouldn't mind using this method to turn the royal city upside down, and he hadn't done anything like that since he had done anything like that, so he would have regarded it as a gift. Of course, this will be after Yuren's business is done, after all, it is just an after-fun.

After a two-hour journey, the train came to a silent stop at the top of a tower, and then there was a knock on the door outside the Yulian carriage, and the soldiers of the royal city guards walked in.

"You two, you have arrived in the royal city, please come with us now, and we will arrange for you to wait in the palace for the time being, until His Majesty the king summons the two of you. ”

Although I don't know what this group of royal city guards discussed along the way and what conclusions they came to, but looking at their current appearance, they are a little more respectful than before. After all, although at the beginning, these royal city guards were also very polite to You Lian and the others, but You Lian could feel that it was more of a duty, although they were very polite on the surface, but their demeanor was always a little careless. Now, however, their attitudes have changed considerably, not only in terms of speech, but also in terms of etiquette.

"Okay, let's go. ”

Hearing the words of the guards, Yuren stood up, and O'Fariel hurriedly straightened his cloak, and then followed Yuren and walked out.

As soon as he stepped out of the train, Yulian immediately felt a gentle breeze blowing, with a refreshing sense of comfort. It seems that this so-called City of the Wind is indeed true. And Offariel was obviously prepared, holding down his cloak with one hand to avoid being blown away by the wind and revealing the true face of Lushan inside.

Unlike the platforms outside the city, the platform of the magic train inside the royal city is located at a height of more than ten meters, of course, this will not be any obstacles. A large floating saucer, large enough to accommodate fifty or sixty people, hovers quietly in the middle of the site's high platform, responsible for carrying and receiving passengers at all times, and carrying them safely to the surface.

All of this is the crystallization of the magic technology that the mages have cultivated, but unfortunately, once the support of the source is lost, then these things that seem good and powerful will immediately become worthless.

When Julien and O'Fariel stepped out of the train, they happened to encounter the floating disc falling again, so they had to go to the side of the passage and wait for the next delivery. At this moment, Yuren looked around, then swept away with a little curiosity, and then, he lowered his head and said to Ofariel with a smile.

"It seems that your star-chasers are really fanatical. ”

"Huh?"

Hearing Yuren's somewhat inexplicable speech, Ofariel raised her head in some confusion and looked in the direction that Yuren was staring, and then she found that in the crowd, the aristocratic old man who had recognized her before was also among them. And he, at this moment, was also looking at Ofariel and Yuren, seeing them looking, the noble old man not only did not dodge, but waved at them very enthusiastically, and then solemnly saluted Ofariel again.

Why did he come along?

Offariel was a little surprised, but a little helpless, so she turned away and stopped looking at him.

"Please stop kidding, Lady Yuren, this is a serious matter. ”

"Of course I know it's a serious matter. ”

Although Yu Lian said so, looking at his expression, it was obvious that it was not at all the same as what he said.

"But ..............."

Yu Lian's words were not finished, because at this moment, the floating saucer had already floated up again, and the soldiers of the Royal City Guard, who had been waiting in front of him, immediately stepped forward and opened the floodgates. Positions were then secured for the two.

However, just as the two of them were about to step on the floating saucer, in the crowd that had originally come to the platform on the floating saucer, four men in robes walked out, they were wearing white robes, and their faces were shrouded in it. The four men walked out of the crowd, but they surrounded Yuren and Ofariel like this.

"What do you want to do?"

Seeing that the development of the situation was somewhat strange, one of the soldiers of the Royal City Guard immediately shouted angrily. However, the four men ignored his inquiry, and they just raised their heads at the same time and looked at Yuren.

"You're the noble lord of the Twilight Forest, Yuren Felix?"

"I am. ”

You Lian smiled and made a slight aristocratic salute to the four of them, and then asked.

"May I ask who you are ............?"

"We are the special judge of the Church of Grace Sanctions, Yuren Felix, you have been charged with the murder of the bishop of the region, and now, in the name of the Church of Grace, we order you to lay down your arms immediately and go to the Church of Grace to receive the verdict!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone around them was shocked.
