Ryan listened to the more the butler dressed up, the more unbearable he became. Losing the desire to continue listening, he patted the man on the shoulder. The butler-like man's body contracted violently like a shrimp, and then while cursing in his mouth, he quickly turned around, and when he saw Ryan, he couldn't close his mouth in surprise, and then squeezed a smile from his face, and pretended to be elegant, "Ah, it's you, respected Ryan magician." ”

Ryan looked the butler-like man up and down, and found that he didn't know him, and the butler-like man guessed Ryan's thoughts as soon as he saw Ryan's face, so he explained: "My master went to watch all the matches you had in the Royal Athletic Tournament, and he also pressed 10,000 gold coins on you, and you really defeated the Royal Knights Squad. ”

Ryan nodded, and he asked the man directly, "What's the matter?" I heard you say about the magic teleportation array?"

"Ah, don't you know?" the butler-looking man had a look of surprise on his face, and he asked Ryan rhetorically, "Isn't it clear that you have a relationship with Lord Luke? Last night, our family knew about the orc attack, and since this morning, the magic teleportation array in the palace has been running at full capacity, and my family has been scheduled for the afternoon, in fact, it has already started. ”

"Teleportation array?" Ryan asked, "Teleported to Seabreeze City?"

"Yes. The butler-like man replied, "However, due to the limited power of the magician, he can only carry a small retinue and belongings. ”

"And who is?"

"Hehe, his sister is my favorite concubine, if it weren't for his sister's pleading, I wouldn't have come to him at this moment. The man who looked like a butler explained: "Because of the limited number of places, the vast majority of people who know about this matter will not go around publicizing it, because in case."

Ryan nodded, he understood what the few words that the man didn't say were, if others knew that he could escape through the teleportation array, it might cause chaos, and it would affect the withdrawal of these people. Most of the reason is that this housekeeper came out to find someone in person.

The man who looked like a butler saw that Ryan didn't say anything, and continued: "That, Mr. Ryan Magician, because of the limited time, I must rush to the palace, otherwise even I won't be able to leave." After saying that, he gave a salute, and then said to the man in tattered clothes, "Are you going to go or not?"

The man in tattered clothes shook his head and said, "Master, I, I still have my family and children, or I beg you"

The man who looked like a butler said repeatedly, "Bah!Bah!Bah!Bah!!Are you still finished?" and then looked up at the sky, and said nervously, "Damn, I have to go, otherwise when my master's teleportation is over, I won't have a chance to leave." After saying that, the butler-like man took the hem of his clothes and ran away quickly on his tiptoes.

Ryan watched the back of the butler-like man disappear around the corner of the street, and suddenly remembered something, he asked the man in tattered clothes who was still in place, "You are not the residents of the Imperial Capital City, are you?"

The man didn't know Ryan, but when he saw that the high-spirited butler was polite to the young man in front of him, and thought that Ryan was a great person, he replied respectfully, "Yes, my lord." Since my ancestors, we have lived on farms outside the city. ”

"And when did you enter the city?"

"Yesterday, my lord. The army forced us to move out, and I still have a lot of things in my house that I haven't had time to move. My neighbor sneaked back this afternoon, and he couldn't bear those things, and said he wanted to move them all in. And "

Ryan asked a few casual questions, but when he couldn't find anything, he took out a few silver coins and threw them to the man, and then left with Allendo in the man's thankful voice.

Ryan and the others quickly caught up with the main force and returned to Luke's mansion. Along the way, Ryan heard rumors more than ten times that the magic teleportation array had been opened and a large number of officials and nobles of the empire had left. Ryan had known about this beforehand, but now that the negative effects of the incident had emerged in the city, and a large number of specious rumors had hit millions of overwhelmed residents, Ryan was very worried about how the commoners who had left the place where their ancestors had lived for generations and had to sleep on the streets of the imperial capital would react when they learned that the imperial officials and nobles had abandoned them and fled.

After arriving at Luke's mansion, Ryan was ready to inform Luke of this matter as soon as possible, but found that Luke had already led his men to the city wall area and arranged the city defense with General Orlando. Ryan shook his head helplessly, and told one of Luke's relatives the whole thing as it was, and asked him to go and tell Luke immediately. After doing this, Ryan took Allendo and the others straight to Catherine's residence, where he was about to start his mission.

"Please come in!" The female knight Christina's eyes flashed with a strange light, and she said loudly to Ryan: "Her Majesty has ordered to come over, Mr. Ryan, you can enter directly without further notice." Ryan nodded slightly to Christina, and then walked into Catherine's room with Alendor and Franner.

Catherine lived in the VIP room in Luke's mansion, her room was divided into two floors, the inner was the bedroom, and the outer room, where she received Ryan and the others, was arranged as a small study.

Ryan walked into the study and found that Catherine was not sitting alone, and there were Farath and Alina accompanying her, Ryan thought it was Luke's arrangement, but he didn't know that Catherine planned it, because of the incident last night, Ryan and Sophie mistakenly thought that the heroine was Farath, so Catherine invited Farath early in the morning, the purpose was to prevent Farath from having the opportunity to talk about last night's events with Ryan or Sophie, so as to prevent the matter from being exposed.

Catherine was talking to Faras, she saw Ryan at a glance, and she panicked for no reason, she didn't dare to look Ryan in the eyes, lest Ryan would recognize herself, so she lowered her head slightly. The movement was so stealthy that even Faraz, who was sitting next to her, couldn't notice it.

When Faras saw Ryan come in, she said to Catherine, "Your Majesty, Ryan must have something to do with you, so let's take our leave." ”

Catherine's mind spun around and she felt that she couldn't let Faras go, in case Faras went to her sister and Sophie mentioned the last night, it would be troublesome. So Catherine said, "Fani, you stay, you are not an outsider anyway." ”

"But"

"Hehe, Fani, as the Empress, I appoint you as my Royal Magical Advisor, and you will follow me in the future. Catherine smiled and said, "I'm so bored by myself, and I just have you to accompany me." ”

Farath was about to excuse herself, but Alina clapped her hands and said, "Okay, okay." Sister, you can say yes. After saying that, Alina said to Catherine, "Your Majesty, I want one too!"

Faras was shocked, Alina's tone was not respectful enough, in case Catherine was angry, it would be troublesome. But Catherine didn't care about any of this, she thought for a moment and said, "Then you should be my magic advisor too." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" said Alina excitedly, a smile and a flush were very cute, if this appearance alone, no one would know that the little girl in front of her was the little witch Alina, who was once called the "men's nemesis" in the Royal Athletic Competition.

Seeing that he couldn't shirk it, Faras had no choice but to agree: "Your Majesty, you are a magician yourself, where do you need any advisers." But since Her Majesty the Queen has already said so, then Alina and I have no choice but to reluctantly do it. ”

Catherine nodded, then looked at Ryan, but subtly lowered her gaze so that Ryan could not see her gaze directly, so as to arouse Ryan's suspicions. "Ryan, Luke has already told me that during this time, my safety, and Faraz, they are all up to you. ”

Ryan stood upright, gave a military salute in the posture of a soldier, and said loudly: "Swear to protect your safety!"

"Now I announce my first order. Catherine smiled and said, "These are extraordinary times, and all etiquette is simple. Unless it is a formal occasion, please call me Catherine and treat me as if it were a friend. ”

"Ah, this," Ryan hesitated, he hadn't learned anything about etiquette, and he didn't know if it was proper to do so.

"What?" Catherine looked at Ryan's hesitant look and said with an angry expression, "Do you look down on me and don't want to be friends with me?"

As soon as Franner heard Catherine's tone, she gently tugged at Ryan's clothes behind him, and motioned for Ryan to hurry up and agree, and Ryan thought about it and replied, "Yes, Emperor Catherine." ”

Although Faras felt that this was not very polite, but Ryan had already agreed, and now although Catherine has the identity of a queen, she has no real power at all, not to mention that the orc soldiers are in the city, how many people's life and death are tied to the line, why bother with a title? Moreover, Faras more or less guessed Catherine's purpose for doing this, at this time, if she doesn't win over the hearts of her subordinates, then Catherine is not worthy of being a queen. What she gives is nothing more than meaningless things, but she can bring her relationship closer to others and make her subordinates swear to protect her own safety.

Catherine saw that Ryan agreed, and a happy smile appeared on her face, and this smile immediately infected everyone in the room, and even the air was filled with a peaceful atmosphere.
