An almost farcical duel ended, but the turmoil he brought was far from over. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThose who lost a lot of gold because of Carlos naturally hated Carlos to the core. Because the publicity in advance was to praise him, there were so many people who were fooled that on various occasions there were people who abused him, and for a while, Carlos's reputation became more stinky than shit, and he became a street rat that everyone shouted and beaten.

Similarly, the other culprit, Lao Evil, did not escape the stinky mouth of these anxious guys, and the cunning dead fat man became one of his lifelong nicknames. In fact, the old evil is not fat, but he is too burly. But the old evil always wore a wide robe, and his nominal father was also fat, so that people took his muscles for granted.

As one of the causes of this incident, Catherine's life was not easy, after all, her mistake that day was too great, and if she hadn't reached out to answer Carlos's request, such a thing would not have happened.

Although this was a small mistake, it has been explained, and as the person who has just been appointed by His Majesty to participate in politics, there should be nothing to do. However, under the secret slander and encouragement of some well-intentioned people, Catherine was also described as a person who did not abide by women's morals and was conservative. Catherine, who had heard this discussion several times, was almost so angry that she drew her sword and slashed people.

However, Catherine is Catherine after all, and even in this unfavorable situation, she still has not lost her arrogance and proportion. Neither took the initiative to explain to the old evil, nor did he avoid Carlos because of this, but visited Carlos the day after the duel.

When Catherine arrived, Kaz was still taking stock of the gains with Vivien, whether it was the magic armor or the cash won from the bet, which made Kaz, a marshal from a poor background, a fortune. As for the comprehensive recovery potion sent by the old evil later, he was extremely satisfied. The heart said, it seems that it is not bad to have such a generous son-in-law! At least his son did not suffer in vain.

However, while the two men were rejoicing, they suddenly heard a report from below that Catherine had come to visit Carlos with gifts. Suddenly, both of them were stupid.

"What is she doing here?" Kaz's face suddenly became as bitter as a cucumber, and he couldn't help but complain, "Isn't this nothing to look for? What kind of fun are you here to make when you are so sensitive, what if little Stephen misunderstands? Damn, the eldest princess can't really take a fancy to Carlos's kid, right?"

"Maybe! The eldest brother is very powerful, and he is indeed likable, and the aristocratic girl who pursues him is more than double digits. After he was injured this time, there were several women who came to visit him in person!" Vivian shrugged and said, "It's normal for the eldest princess to fall in love with her brother!"

"Normal fart!" Kaz said annoyedly, "The eldest princess is the daughter-in-law of the Stephen family, and Carlos has already lost the duel." If Carlos gets into trouble with her again, won't our family's reputation be ruined? If there is any scandal, the old man will definitely pick my skin. ”

"Although what you said is very serious, but the eldest princess has arrived, you can't drive her out, right?" Vivien said helplessly: "Let's invite her in quickly!"

"Alas!" said Katz, with a long sigh, and then reluctantly took Vivien to meet Catherine.

Catherine still maintained her unique direct surname, and after meeting, she casually greeted a few words, and said directly: "Uncle Kaz, I want to meet Brother Carlos, is it okay?"

Although Kaz was a hundred unhappy in his heart, but after all, he was the eldest princess, how could he dare to say no, so he could only say with a bitter face: "Of course, of course, this is our honor!"

Subsequently, Kaz personally took the eldest princess to Carlos's recuperation room.

At this time, Carlos had been bandaged and half mummified, and in that powerful explosion, he was shocked by the shock wave and broke his right arm, calf bones and a few ribs, which can be described as a serious injury, although not crippled, but even with the treatment of light magic, it will take at least more than a month to recuperate.

At this time, the emperor's order forced Carlos to start copying "The Biography of Rio the Great". It seems to be to vent anger at Carlos. Because it is rumored that the emperor also quietly pressed a large amount of money on Carlos, but now it has run into the pockets of the Stephen family, so he hates Carlos, who is not angry.

So, when Catherine saw Carlos, the poor boy was half-seated on the bed, struggling to copy the biography of Rio the Great with her left hand. Originally, he was sick, but he insisted on writing with his unskilled left hand, you can imagine how uncomfortable he was, anyway, the cold sweat on the top of his head had not broken, if it wasn't for a maid beside him who kept wiping it, he would have sweated like rain.

Seeing that Carlos was so pitiful, Catherine hurriedly walked over, took the pen from Carlos's hand, and said, "Forget it, don't write it anymore, I will go and ask my father to take back this punishment!"

"Your Royal Highness Princess!" Carlos immediately had mixed feelings when he saw Catherine, and then said with tears in his eyes: "I, I'm useless, I'm sorry for you!"

"What a stupid thing to say!" Catherine frowned and said, "You're sorry for me if you win!"

As soon as Catherine said this, everyone present was dumbfounded. Especially Carlos, his old face was flushed, and he couldn't help but ask: "Your Royal Highness Princess, I, I don't quite understand what you mean!"

"Alas!" Catherine sighed, and then said helplessly: "Brother Catherine, I have always regarded you as my brother, but there is no personal relationship between children and daughters. I'm little Stephen's fiancée, after all!"

Catherine apparently meant that she liked little Stephen, not Carlos.

After hearing this, Kaz and Vivien immediately breathed a sigh of relief, they were afraid that if there was a relationship between the two, they would not be able to live with the Stephen family. However, in addition to their joy, they couldn't help but start to sympathize with Carlos. Unexpectedly, after he lost face, he got such cruel news.

And Carlos took a long time to understand, and then said: "Your Highness, you, you actually like little Stephen instead of me?"

"I'm afraid that's it!" Catherine said helplessly.

"But why did you accept my invitation that day?" asked Carlos, puzzled.

"Oh, it's embarrassing to say!" Catherine smiled helplessly: "Brother Carlos, you also know that people are very annoyed by the etiquette of nobles, so I am so-so in etiquette class." I really didn't know what your invitation would mean, I thought I was just dancing the same as before, but I didn't expect it to have such a meaning. If I had known, I would never have agreed!"

After hearing this, Carlos showed a very strange expression on his face, and he was puzzled for a while, and then he was puzzled: "Your Royal Highness, I don't understand? I am not as good as the despicable fat man of the Stephen family, why do you want to do this to me?"

"You mean little Stephen, he's not fat!" Catherine shrugged, "And that guy is strong, to be honest, Brother Carlos, although he won you by trickery this time, even if you have a fair duel one-on-one, you are no match for him!"

"I don't believe it!" Carlos immediately said angrily, "Your Highness Princess, you have never lied before, why do you lie for him now?"

"I never lie now!" said the eldest princess, gently holding out a finger and pointing at the wall to Carlos's left, as a fierce spirit shot out of her finger. I only heard a soft pop, and the sharp finger wind easily made a small hole more than three inches deep in the stone brick.

Then Catherine said lightly: "This is my three-percent vindictive blow, what does Brother Carlos think?"

"Incredible!" Carlos shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You have surpassed me in strength, should I feel ashamed?"

"You should be ashamed!" Kaz's eyes lit up suddenly, and then he couldn't help but admire: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, you are indeed the pride of our griffin kingdom, and you already have the strength of a fifth-level warrior! But you are not yet 20 years old, this is simply a miracle!"

"It's nothing, there's one more perverted than me!" The eldest princess shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Little Stephen, he is younger than me, but his strength is stronger than me, I ask myself one-on-one heads-up is far from his opponent!"

"Huh, how can this be?" Carloston's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Didn't the little princess say that you defeated little Stephen at the last banquet?"

"That's because I used the sub-artifact Purification Blade, and he was bare-handed. If I can't win like this, I can hit the wall!" Catherine said a little depressedly, "Do you know? Actually, a few months ago, we had a public competition in front of my master in the Chaos Duchy, and that time I lost so badly that little Stephen, the bastard, was like he was teasing me, and easily beat me to the point where I couldn't find the north. ”
