In the distance, Althea saw the returning second sister and Harry, who was with her, get up from their stools and run to Harry.
"Hmm, Harry, what's wrong with you, you seem to be a little out of your mind. ”
Aisia threw herself into Edwina's arms, and noticed that something was not quite right with Harry's face, like a person who had been working for many days in a row, and was in a state of exhaustion, unable to keep up his spirits.
"I'm fine, don't worry. ”
Harry reached out and flicked her head.
"Your Highness Harry, and Princess Edwina, you're back. ”
"Uncle Lykuber, you're here too. ”
When Harry walked to the tent, an unexpected person walked up, he was followed by several guards in full armor, he greeted Harry warmly, Harry recognized who this person was, and also greeted him, but it was lukewarm, giving people a very cold feeling, the second sister and Aisia just saluted.
The Duke is the highest title and the title of the supreme ruler of a territory, and he is also a relative of Harry, the brother of His Royal Highness, so Harry also calls him uncle.
"My lovely niece is coming back, I can't be absent, and of course, I'm also here to visit you. ”
The last person Harry wanted to see was the uncle in front of him, the Duke of Lecoul.
Duke Leku's territory was located on the eastern side of the empire, not far or close, and it would take a week to get to the imperial capital, even if he took the Babut ship without resting on the way.
During Harry and Adwina's absence, almost all of the King's siblings arrived to welcome the eldest sister's return.
There's a reason why Harry hates him, because his uncle is a true beast, lustful for beauty, and has a penchant for collecting women of other races as his own slaves.
There was a time when the Duke was coming at His Majesty's birthday celebration, when Harry didn't know that the smiling Duke was a brute.
At that time, the Duke and Harry had a good chat, but it was actually the Duke who had a very happy conversation unilaterally, and Harry just nodded, or umped, and listened to him boast about his exploits.
Until halfway through the chat, he was accidentally bumped into by a maid with wine, because there were too many people in the palace at that time, and when the maid delivered wine, it was not easy, and the wine was not spilled on his body on purpose, and the maid said sorry vigorously, and helped him wipe the place soaked in wine.
The Duke didn't care so much, just gave the maid a meaningful look and let her go, and Harry thought that although he was a chattering man, he was a tolerant person.
It wasn't until the day before the celebration that Harry was returning down the path after training and saw the maid who accidentally spilled wine on the duke in the palace hall last time, with a dull look, her eyes were slightly red from crying, and she was holding a broom in her hand, as if she had forgotten to sweep the floor, until someone reminded her, she didn't react.
Unexpectedly, this time it was the last time to see her, and after that, many times Harry passed by this place, he didn't see her, but added another person to replace the original person's position, according to common sense, each area has a designated maid in charge, except for changing positions, it is possible.
Feeling vaguely wrong, he asked the person who was usually in charge of the area with her, and learned that the woman had died a few days ago, as if she had died because she couldn't think of anything, and seeing that this woman had something unspeakable, Harry decided not to ask, and because of this, Harry also learned the name of the dead woman.
Harry really cares, the maid must have hidden something about this matter, and she can still keep her mouth shut in the face of her identity.
It wasn't until a few days later that Harry, who was very concerned, heard the sound of a child when he was passing by a place in the palace somewhere, and Harry, who wanted to pass by quickly, inadvertently overheard the conversation of the uncle who he thought was a tolerant man, and Harry heard the name of the dead woman, and the question in his heart drove Harry to eavesdrop on their conversation.
According to the duke's inadvertent words, Harry realized that the truth of the matter should be like this, the dead woman was defiled by him, and she couldn't bear the pressure in her heart, so she chose to commit suicide, and the duke was still flirting with a new lover.
Although he only heard the duke's words, Harry was already very angry, if he hadn't suppressed the anger in his heart first, and went to the maid who had asked before, under the pressure, the maid finally cried, as if she had found some catharsis, and cried and told Harry what happened, as the best friend of the dead woman, of course she knew all this, but she couldn't do anything, in order to survive, she had to swallow this secret into her stomach.
The feeling of regret and anger can be understood from Harry's clenched bleeding fist, if he could have found out that something was wrong earlier, he would not have let innocent people die, and no innocent people would have suffered, Harry remembered his previous life, his mother seemed to have been defiled by such people to embark on this road of no return, and Harry hated such people the most.
I'm going to kill you! It's the first time Harry has been so angry, and he wants to punch himself like a waste, why can't he find out sooner, he's useless to be ruthless.
Although Harry didn't know the dead maid, Harry would still help her if it wasn't for the fact that the maid greeted him with a smile every time she passed by.
Enraged, Harry used his strength for the first time, came to the duke's residence, and beat the duke, who was still flirting with his lover, half to death, destroying the room where he lived, and the alarmed palace guards could not stop the six or seven-year-old child, if it wasn't for the captain of the Knights' Order, Festria, who suppressed Harry, the beaten half-paralyzed duke would definitely die.
After being beaten by Harry, Duke Lekuan had a deep fear of Harry, although he couldn't see it on the surface, but in fact, behind his smiling face, a heartbeat could almost pop out, the ten-year-old boy opposite, but the person who had tried to kill him, it was impossible not to leave a little psychological shadow.
Since that time, the Duke of Lecu has not been to the Imperial Capital, even for His Majesty's celebrations, but only to send gifts, and seems to be very worried that Harry will kill him before he comes, and huddle in his den like a turtle.
