Just like Nicole said.

When the three of Ronald entered the mansion and went up to the third floor under the guidance of the investigator, Her Royal Highness the princess of [Grede] was indeed ready, sitting in the office and waiting.

Walking into the room, Ronald gave a quick glance.

Claudia hasn't been here for long, and the office has almost no embellishments except for simple tables and chairs. However, the maid standing by was obviously quite dutiful, and had already cleaned the place very cleanly.

As for Claudia herself.

Ronald appeared a little suddenly, and the relationship between the two was not so official, so Claudia simply did not wear makeup, and only wore a cold-proof dress on her body, which attracted the attention of the maid next to her.

"Ronald, you're here."

As the host, Claudia was the first to say hello, and her eyes naturally swept to the two girls behind Ronald. Kostadt's appearance was certainly expected by the princess.

But another one......

Thinking of the experience of floating mountains on the sea, Claudia's gaze immediately became serious:

"Also, isn't this Miss Catharina?"

"I didn't expect that we would meet here after saying goodbye to the barrier mountain, and it seems that a lot of things have happened to the two of you."

Naturally, Caterina answered:

"Ronald and I are now walking together, close friends working towards a common goal. Hey, Ronald, are you saying I'm right? ”

While explaining the reason for her appearance, Caterina took the initiative to reach out and put her arms around Ronald's neck, indicating that the two of them were like good buddies.

Only Ronald heard Caterina say in a very low voice:

"That's a lot better than some 'mysterious spellcaster', right?"

“……”

Claudia saw that Caterina didn't want to explain more, so she didn't ask any more questions.

She beckoned the three of them to sit down, and turned to look at the maid:

"Nana, tea, it's hot."

The maid nodded, brought tea from the side, and said in her mouth:

"Volume VII, Page 330, First Head."

A bright and warm flame was lit in the maid's hand, and the tea was quickly boiled to the right temperature, which was then poured into the cups of both the host and the guest.

Claudia took a sip of hot tea to warm up her body, and then spoke again:

"Ronald, you should have something urgent to do when you came here to find me so late, right?"

Ronald nodded in acknowledgement, then explained his ordeal:

"A few hours ago, we had already made a trip to the South."

"It's just that when I entered the territory of the [Nine Rings Secret Society], I encountered some problems, and now I must need a suitable identity to enter......"

Under the light of the oil lamp, Ronald will tell the situation.

Claudia took a sip of tea, and when she heard this information, she couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and with the identity and perspective of Her Royal Highness the princess, she also thought of many things from this.

Ronald politely waited for a few minutes.

Seeing that Claudia was about to finish the tea, he asked:

"Also, where are Claudia, Heloin, and Yin'er now? If you hadn't separated, the two of them would have been nearby, right? And what about Patricia? ”…

"They." Claudia was awakened by Ronald from his thoughts, but he didn't answer immediately, but moved his gaze to the two girls behind Ronald, "Ronald, although this is not a good thing for me to say, you better pay more attention." ”

"As a gentleman, don't let down too many people."

Hear such advice.

Ronald didn't know how to answer for a while.

They asked themselves and didn't have any overthinking about it. But after so much going through it, it's true that my relationships have become a little bad – and that's true.

Fortunately, Claudia did not let Ronald continue to be embarrassed.

She turned her hand and asked the maid to pour water for herself, while explaining to Ronald:

"It's a shame they're not here right now."

"Just like Miss Costadt next to you, Ronald, your female companions are amazingly mobile. Almost the afternoon of Kostadt's departure, they said goodbye. ”

Ronald couldn't help frowning, and immediately asked:

"They didn't leave a message before they left?"

"I don't know much." Claudia nodded regretfully, "But Patricia made it clear that Helointh seems to have learned about your situation through the fairy tale sealer, so she is also going to do something to deal with the remnants of the [Nine Rings Secret Society]." ”

Speaking of this, the expression on Her Royal Highness Princess's face was a little complicated.

She thought for a few seconds before continuing:

"It's a pity that that Lady Arya doesn't seem to have any intention of revealing her whereabouts to us, so that's all I know."

After listening to the answer, Ronald didn't know what to say for a while.

Of course, he wanted to see them here.

But Heloin is a real person, not an NPC in the game, and there are few changes in one place. And with their personalities, it is indeed impossible to stay in one place in the previous situation.

Claudia also understands the importance of this news.

So after explaining, she stopped talking, but left enough time for Ronald to think for himself.

“……”

"Thanks, that's enough."

After a long time, Ronald let out a sigh and accepted reality.

This may also be good news.

From a safety point of view, there is an out-of-specification existence of Yin Er on Hailuo Yinsi's side, so he definitely doesn't have to worry about it. And think about it from another point of view - in the dangerous land of the Southern Continent, it seems that there is nothing wrong with not following yourself as a troublemaker in every sense.

After sorting out his mentality, Ronald straightened his body, and his tone was also back on track:

"Now let's get down to business, it's still the identity issue I just mentioned."

"Claudia, I need an identity that gives me a reason to enter the other party's land, you should be able to help, right?"

Claudia immediately had a satisfied smile on her face:

"You made the right choice."

But then, Her Royal Highness the princess also entered a state of negotiation. So she hid her personal feelings behind the mask, and said with the same seriousness:

"Ronald, you should also be aware of the recent actions on my side."

"Of course, it's okay to help you with this identity, but other than that, you can also do me a small favor, right?"

Ronald, of course, knew Claudia's purpose and was ready to tactfully refuse:

"We are all here to deal with the [Nine Rings Secret Society] land, and we shouldn't delay too long in time, so we ......"

At this moment, Claudia directly interrupted Ronald's words:

"What if this 'little favor' is just to make you a more suitable identity, and at the same time it won't waste time?"

Ronald looked seriously into Claudia's eyes.

The air was silent for a few minutes, and then he spoke again:

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
