General Orlando thought for a long time. He decided to start with Ryan's side, with the relationship between Ryan and Faras, it is likely that Ryan will become Luke's son-in-law like Orlando in a few years, and Ryan is a person who is admired by Orlando both in terms of magical strength and personal conduct. And there is another very important reason that Victor, the only great magician of the empire, also admires Ryan very much, and may be able to make up for the gap between His Majesty and Victor through Ryan's relationship, after all, Fernando XIII did too recklessly, not only removed Luke, but also offended Victor together.

Orlando let out a long breath, and in front of Ryan, he didn't hide anything: "Ryan, I didn't expect you to have such great feats, I just learned from General Clark about your achievements today, counting that during your time in Thor's Fortress, you killed 5,000 orc warriors." Good guys, a whole brigade of elite human soldiers. ”

Ryan heard Orlando's words of praise, his face was flushed, he scratched his head embarrassedly, and wanted to say something, but Orlando interrupted what he wanted to say in time and continued: "I just received the news that the imperial capital is coming, and 6 days ago, His Majesty held a coronation ceremony in the imperial capital. ”

Orlando told Ryan in detail about Fernando XIII's appearance at the coronation ceremony, and Ryan let out a sigh after hearing it, the legendary dragon suddenly appeared in the imperial capital of the human world, or the kind of undead creature that was enchanted by some kind of magic after death, could it be that the undead army 200 years ago is about to resurrect again?

Ryan remembered the lich he met when he and Faras were on an adventure together, although the strength was much worse than what was recorded in the books, but it also created a lot of undead creatures, maybe in a remote place on the continent, there was a group of necromancers who looked at humans with jealous eyes, but unfortunately the power of the empire was now dragged down by the orcs in the north and the big and small lords who were about to move in the south, and it was impossible to search for the existence of those guys with all their might.

"Forget it, don't think about these things. Orlando saw that Ryan was also deep in thought, so he diverted the topic and said: "In the letter sent by His Majesty, he also told me that he was going to marry Catherine, and there was still half a month to calculate the time, and it is estimated that I would not be able to attend his wedding in person." ”

"Ahh

Orlando explained: " At that time, Fernando I in order not to indulge in women and disturb the government for future generations, there was a decree not to be crowned and not to marry the queen before the age of 30, His Majesty has just turned 30 years old, and it is normal for all to marry now, but the female magician named Catherine appeared in front of our eyes not long ago, although I sent a competent subordinate to investigate her, but unfortunately I couldn't find anything in the past six months, only know that her teacher was a bard, Catherine's parents died, she was adopted by her teacher since she was a child, and she lived in seclusion to learn magic, that's all. ”

"Oh," Ryan agreed casually, his only impression of Catherine was the level 8 fire magic released by floating in the air, and he had no contact with Catherine at all, and he had no impression of it.

Orlando saw that Ryan didn't care about what he said, and knew that Ryan had little experience in this area, so he explained to him: "Don't underestimate what I just said, in fact, it's not just Catherine, even you, it's Alina or Oz, etc., the Empire has sent people to investigate." ”

Ryan was also interested when he heard Orlando say this. Orlando continued, "Ryan's hometown of Dense Mist has also been there in the guise of a merchant, and the Master Draenne didn't see it, but Galib lives in a wooden house outside the town. ”

"Ah, big brother Orlando, are my parents okay?"

Orlando saw that Ryan didn't care about the secret investigation of him, but cared about his family, so he comforted him and said: "Ryan, don't worry, your father is in good health now, and he often goes hunting, and your mother was a little unwell at the end of last year, but after a few days of recuperation, she will be fine." ”

"Ah, is my mother unwell? Ryan's eyes turned a little red: "She has suffered from this problem since she gave birth to me, and she is a little uncomfortable every winter, but unfortunately I couldn't be by her side last year." ”

Orlando saw that Ryan was unhappy, so he relieved and said, "Okay, Ryan, when you have defeated the orcs, you can take Farath home for a walk, Luke is not one of those rotten nobles, and he will not oppose you." ”

When Ryan heard Orlando's words, his face couldn't hold back, and he lowered his head with a red face. Orlando laughed and continued, "Whether it's you or Alina and the others, as long as you go to the place where you once lived, you will definitely find traces of your life, after all, you are not lying. But Catherine's past is like a blank sheet of paper, a few sentences are brushed aside, and a lot of manpower and material resources have been spent to confirm it, which is a headache. ”

Ryan asked, puzzled, "Why do you have to look these up?"

Orlando said: "For the sake of the security of the Empire, and for the sake of your future ability to gain the trust of His Majesty the King, there is absolutely no harm in investigating your past." This kind of investigation will not disturb your family, but only to confirm it, because there were once spies sent by the lords of the south to infiltrate the Royal Knights and steal the secrets of the Holy Knights, so there was such a rule later. Well, you don't go to your heart, it's not against someone. ”

"Now your Majesty favors Catherine, who had taken the risk to save the pen. If Catherine was a spy for the Southern Lords, it would be more in the interests of the Southern Lords to risk her life to protect Your Majesty, but instead sit back and watch Your Majesty die. Archbishop Eber also wrote me a letter in which he said that he had tested Catherine with light magic, proving that Catherine had not changed her appearance by means of transfiguration, illusion magic, etc. Since there is no way to prove that Catherine has bad intentions, and His Majesty insists on marrying her, I think this is the only way to go. Anyway, as long as I'm here, no one will want to hurt His Majesty in the slightest!"

After another conversation, Ryan saw that Orlando was in low spirits, so he persuaded him to rest more, and then left.

Ryan returned to his quarters, lifted the curtain of the tent and walked inside. Steaming barbecue was on the table inside the tent, and Faraz stood with his back to the door. Tenderness welled up in Ryan's heart, especially Orlando's words just now, which made Ryan make up his mind to take Faras home when he had defeated the orcs. Ryan then walked up to Farath's back and stretched out his hands to wrap her arms around her.

Faras was startled at first, then felt the familiar aura of Ryan's body, and his stiff body returned to its soft original state. Faras snuggled her head into Ryan's arms and whispered, "Ryan, thank you." This dress, really"

"Shhhhh ”

"Yes. Farass said softly, "Are you tired? You are so good today, you have killed at least 500 enemies." ”

"Huh. Ryan said with a wicked smile on his face, "What's the reward?"

"I'm sick of it!"

"Fani, why don't you do this, 100 orcs kiss it, okay?"

"Die, you want to be beautiful. ”

"Don't, or 200 of them?" Ryan still wanted to bargain with Faras, but suddenly a pain came from under his ribs, it turned out that Faras was shy and didn't want Ryan to continue, so he pinched Ryan's ribs with his fingers. Although Ryan slaughtered all sides on the battlefield, he did not bless himself with stone skin magic at the moment, so his body was defenseless for Faraz.

"It hurts, it hurts, Fani. Ryan whispered in Faras's ear for mercy, and the latter's face looked angry, but the strength in his hand grew smaller.

"Fani!"

"Hmm? ”

"No, I just wanted to call you. ”

"Okay. ”

"Fani. ”

"Hmm!"

"When the orcs are gone, I'll take you out for a spin, right?"

"Okay. ”

"I've seen the grasslands in the north and the sea in the east, and Allendo and I have also set up a mercenary group in the south, so let's go to the west of the continent and have a look." ”

"Hmm!"

"Hehe, let's go to Fog Town. ”

"Hmm!"

"Hey, it's Fog Town. Seeing that Faras didn't say anything, Ryan deliberately said it once.

"Got it, isn't it just going back to your hometown?"

"Uhh

"You!" Faras turned and poked Ryan on the forehead with her finger, "The women of our Redia family have a tradition of striving for their own happiness. ”

"Ahh

"Hmph!" said Faras, to Ryan, "Now you're satisfied, don't you just want to hear me say this?" I tell you, if you're sorry for me in the future, I'll be."

"I swear, if I am sorry for Fani in the future, let me be banned," Ryan could finish his oath before Faras's small hand gently gagged his mouth.

Ryan knows what to do now, no matter how stupid he is, and he will never ask at such a delicate time like an idiot in a story: "Can I kiss you?".

"Huh!" Faras's soft lips were kissed fiercely by Ryan, who had been fighting all day, his physical and mental fatigue disappeared without a trace between this kiss, and his stomach, which was still growling in protest just now, died down in the face of the steaming barbecue behind him, and in the small tent, there was only the heartbeat of a pair of intimate lovers
