"Poof!"

Kirin and Uncle emerged from five or six meters away from the riverbank, and in the slow-flowing water, the two struggled to paddle towards the shore. The shore was a high embankment, and after drifting down the river for dozens of meters, the two finally found a shallow beach that could go up the rocks downstream, and after climbing up with all their might, they both collapsed on the beach.

"Whew...... Call...... Whew......"

"Whew...... Call...... Call...... Whew......"

The drenched unicorn and the aristocratic uncle were lying motionless on the beach, panting for breath while revealing a frightened expression. For Qilin, the excitement encountered tonight can be said to be stronger than the sum of the past January, and for the aristocratic uncle, it seems that there is rarely such a late-night outlaw experience. In addition to breathing, the two looked at each other in unison, and their eyes with a deep wry smile drew the emotional resonance of the two.

"Hehe...... slowly, the corners of the unicorn's mouth began to rise.

"Hum ......" Similarly, the uncle also showed a happy expression.

"Haha!ha

In the next second, the hearty laughter of the men broke the silence of the night. On the cold beach by the river, the unicorn and the aristocratic uncle were like old friends who had known each other for many years, patting each other on the shoulder.

"Damn, I must have run into an evil today, and I encountered something inexplicable...... "Although he said this, there was no unpleasant expression on Qilin's face.

"Yes, urinating in the open would hit the gendarmes, and then be driven half a street, and finally across the Rhine...... Uncle, my life experience is also rich, but I have never encountered such a ridiculous thing......" Uncle stroking his beard proudly, the original magnificent beard was wet by the river water and attached to the sides of his cheeks, showing a very funny appearance. "But then again, little brother, how did you do it? Uncle, I'm also well-informed, but I've never even heard of it. ”

"Ah, that's called 'Limbo Step', and it's a kind of light skill. Kirin showed a slightly embarrassed expression. "Actually, I didn't practice well, if it was cast by the village elders, I wouldn't even get my shoes wet when I crossed this river...... Originally, this move was supposed to be supported by 'qi', but I was not good at that, so I had to use 'force' to make up for it, but I still fell into the water on the way......"

In fact, the Great Wilderness martial arts are also divided into two types: "external strength" and "internal strength", the external skill is the use of "force", while the internal practice is the use of "qi". Compared with the external power that purely relies on ** ability, the practice of internal power is slow, but when it reaches the peak, it can wield a power that cannot be matched by simple external power. Because Qilin's character couldn't stand those boring sittings and qi training, he took the opposite fierce route to Chechen.

With outstanding talent and hard practice, although he is young, the Qilin's fire in external skills is no longer lost to several elders, and when he fights against monsters, he can wield a power that his peers can't match. Because of this, Qilin is very dismissive of the elders who often nagging in their ears about "the combination of rigidity and softness", but occasionally when they encounter a situation similar to today, they will also feel that it is still beneficial to practice internal strength.

"If you don't even get the soles of your shoes wet, won't you be able to fly?" the uncle's eyes widened. "Little brother, those elders in your village, aren't they 'gods'?"

"God-man?" was the first time Kirin had heard the term. "What's that?"

"God-man, that is...... Hello!" The uncle who was about to explain suddenly sneezed loudly, and at the same time Kirin also felt a violent chill.

Speaking of which, the act of sitting by the cold river in a soaking wet state and chatting in the night breeze is simply heretical from the point of view of common sense. On the other hand, it can also be considered that in terms of Cheng Dù, the unicorn and the aristocratic uncle are probably of the same rank.

"Found it! Hey, the intruder is here! Hurry!

Just as the Kirin and the uncle were shaking and supporting each other to stand up, the river above suddenly lit up with the light of torches, accompanied by many chaotic footsteps.

Kirin and Uncle looked at each other, and then it wasn't long before dozens of torches lit up the beach for the two, and a group of heavily armed guards surrounded the two of them. The guards held torches in one hand and pressed the hilt of their swords in the other, and looked at the two of them with eyes that were colder than the steel on their bodies, and they felt as if they would draw their swords and cut people if they didn't agree with each other.

(What's this called...... Kirin looked at the heavily armed guards around him with a smile and a smile, subconsciously assessing the possibility of a breakthrough by force.

(Huh, wait, I look like I've seen it somewhere...... Kirin suddenly noticed the armor on the guards, the armor was exactly the same as the one he had seen in front of the Duke's Palace yesterday.

(Isn't that right...... Kirin quickly looked at the building behind the guards. Although only a faint shadow could be seen at night, it matched the Duke's palace in his impression. (Ah, speaking of which, the Second Avenue and the First Avenue were originally adjacent, so it's not surprising that they floated down the river to near the Duke's Palace...... ）

Thinking of this, Kirin exhaled a long breath, no matter what, it was better to be able to resolve it peacefully than anything else.

"Don't be rude, put away your weapons. The person who said this was not the Kirin.

The aristocratic uncle walked out into the firelight and gave the guards an order to put away their weapons, and there was a coercion in his faint voice that he had not had before.

"What nonsense...... Huh, you ...... No, you are...... Lord Duke!" The captain of the leading guard recognized the appearance of the head of the family, and showed a wolf expression on the spot.

"Your Excellency, ...... What's going on with you? Why is this happening...... So ......" Looking at the wet head of the house, the captain of the guard struggled in his mind for the right word.

"Well, to put it simply, I was met by a robber on my way home, and in the end it was this little brother who saved me. ”

The aristocratic uncle, Robette, Duke of Isère, patted Kirin on the shoulder without changing his face and introduced him to the guards. As for the Kirin, he was already dead when the captain of the guard shouted "Lord Duke".

"This little brother is my benefactor, and you must not be lazy...... Ah, besides, you can't tell Sù Noin about this, not even Charlotte, you know?" the Duke looked at the guards around him.

"Yes, the little ones will swear to keep the secrets of the adults to the death, and will never divulge anything to the two young ladies. The captain of the guard saluted, and replied in a fairly reliable voice.

"Oh, what can't you tell me?"

A cold voice sounded above, and the guards subconsciously looked up, only to see Nuo Yin, dressed in civilian clothes, slowly walking down the river embankment. Noin stared at the torch-lit riverbank, the dancing light of the fire reflected in the sapphire pupils of her eyes, reflecting a quiet rage.

As Noin slowly approached, the guards automatically gave way like a tidal wave that had been separated. They looked up at the heroine who commanded the strongest army of the king in the name of "Brilliant Thunder Dome", and their faces showed expressions of awe and admiration, and the captain of the guard put his feet together with a "snap", and reported to Nuo Yin respectfully.

"Report to the second miss, it's the adults who have returned. It seems that he was chased by robbers on the way home from drinking, so he swam across the river. ”

"You...... You ......," the Duke glared at the captain who had just made the assurance, as he was about to rush over and strangle him.

"Riding the Rhine at night, my father is really good......" Noin stopped in front of the duke with a smiling expression.

"This ...... There's a reason for that, Noin, you...... You will know ...... if you listen to me," the Duke explained to his daughter in a cold sweat on his forehead.

"Please go and change your wet clothes, father. I'll listen to you until the Kirin returns. ”

"Kirin, who?" said the duke, with a puzzled expression.

“...... Qilin is Chechen's younger brother and just arrived in the royal capital yesterday. I'm going to introduce him to you, but he hasn't come back yet......" Noin's gaze suddenly froze behind the duke.

"The younger brother of the sullen son-in-law, how did he come to the royal capital...... Hey, Noin, are you listening?" the confused duke, following his daughter's gaze, looked behind him and saw the black young man at a loss.

"Ah, this little brother is by no means a suspicious figure. In fact, when I met the robbers, he helped me, so to speak...... "The duke was very righteous to help Qilin exonerate, but he didn't understand the situation at all.

“...... Kirin?"

"Huh?"

"Kirin. ”

"That, Kirin is ......"

"Yo...... Yo, Noin. Under the bewildered gaze of the Duke and Uncle, Qilin raised his hand with a weak expression and beckoned to Nuoyin, "I'm back." ”

..................

While a family burlesque was going on in the Duke's Palace, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, located on the same street, people with gloomy faces were exchanging gray topics.

The owner of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Katos, the prime minister of the kingdom of Lavelis, is a middle-aged man with gray hair, with a thin body and a gloomy face, he can easily give people the impression of a gloomy owl, and his personality is completely in line with his appearance. Katos was bent on seizing the supreme power of the kingdom, arranging for his cronies to hold important positions in the kingdom, and often using all kinds of despicable means to plot against political opponents, so he was privately compared by the court ministers to a fierce scavenging bird of prey, but no one dared to call it out to his face.

All in all, with all kinds of means far from the righteous light, Katos established a huge power in the court, and even the royal family of La Velis was not taken seriously by him.

This is not the case with the exception of the Isère.

It can be said that the Isai family, known as the "uncrowned royal family", is the supreme person who really controls the power behind the kingdom. If it weren't for the duke's frustrated retirement and the departure of those two important figures, Katos would not have had a chance to claim the throne of power in the kingdom. Even after two years of hard work, the power of the Embrion family is not what it used to be, and he still does not dare to touch the power of the "uncrowned royal family". However, to truly grasp the power of the kingdom, the family is an unavoidable obstacle.

So far, Katos has not made up his mind to go to war with the Isère, but the secretary's report has forced him to make a choice.

"You say, the Isères have made a move?" Katos rubbed the ash from his forehead and confirmed to the secretary who stood respectfully in front of him.

"Yes, it seems that the cause is the atrocities of Young Master Conrad, which has aroused the righteous indignation of the prince Iserare......" Tiana explained to Katos what she knew.

"Hmph, that shit. Hearing the news that the nine privates were half dead and that his nephew had not yet awakened, Katos only frowned, he was more concerned about other issues.

"Who is that unicorn?"

"Yes. Due to the rush of time, his subordinates have not yet investigated more detailed information, but according to accurate information, he should have arrived in the royal capital yesterday, and then lived in the palace of the Duke of Isère. Tiana voiced her speculation. "Although he himself did not recognize himself as a member of the Duke's family, the House of Isère granted him the coat of arms of the 'Sword Wing'. From this point of view, even if he is not a member of the Isère family, he must have a close relationship with the Isaire family. ”

"His identity is not a problem, the question is whether his actions represent the attitude of the Illiere family. Katos played with the quills and pointed out in a slightly annoyed voice.

"As far as I can see, he doesn't know much about the situation in the royal capital, and it is very likely that he acted to stop Young Master Conrad out of personal impulse......," Tiana replied in a calm voice. "But no matter what his personal wishes are, the relationship between us and the 'Uncrowned King Family' is bound to change, so I think it's better to prepare early. ”

“...... That's right. Katos stood up, walked to the window, and looked out at the street scene, as if he wanted to hold the king in his hand. "Now, there is no obstacle in front of me, and the steps leading to the highest throne are only the 'Uncrowned King'...... Maybe it's time to get rid of that eye-catching family and take every bit of this country into my hands, don't you think?"

"I obey Your Excellency's orders. Tiana bowed her head respectfully.

"Okay, then let's start with the ......" Katos looked up at the sky, a dark cloud happened to cover the moon, and the whole sky was pitch black. "Let's start with the daughter of Iserare, who is the captain of Baixiang. The air cavalry force under her control, the 'Sky King Cavalry' is the most direct threat to our side. And in the later plan, that force is also an obstacle that must be eliminated. ”

Tiana listened quietly to Katos's words.

"Speaking of which, didn't she just eliminate a group of evil air thieves yesterday?" Katos curled an ominous arc at the corners of his mouth. "Although it is a great feat, if you look at it from another angle, it can also be regarded as evidence of incompetence?"

"Your Excellency means ......" Tiana frowned slightly. "Heraldic Academy?"

"Well, let Conrad do it, didn't he happen to be on that airship that day?" Katos sneered. "Although it is useless waste, it can occasionally come in handy. ”

“...... I know. Tiana nodded, and asked again. "Besides, what do you plan to do with that prince named Qilin?"

"Don't worry about it, anyway, it's just a fool with brute strength, it won't affect the overall situation, and I'll slowly clean him up when I'm free. Katos waved his hand. "Our majesty doesn't know what he's thinking about lately, I'm going to watch the palace side, so I'll leave this matter to you to arrange...... Remember, it doesn't matter what method you use, it's the result that counts. ”

Recalling the last scene she saw during the day, Tiana didn't quite agree with her boss's comments, but at the moment, Qilin was indeed a small existence that was powerless to affect the overall situation, so in the end she just moved her mouth and quit the executive office of the Prime Minister's Mansion without saying anything.

Represented by the gentle sound of the door closing, the long day of the king's ringeil has finally come to an end, but the real story may have just begun......
