Chapter 42: The Smell of Leo

"Minahir ......" Alice opened her mouth slightly in surprise, looked at the time, eight forty-five, and couldn't help but regret: "It's a pity that it's still early, so you can't punish him." Don't...... What powerful potion did he use?"

"Impossible. Ryan shook his head, also feeling a little surprised, "The flaming lava is not only strong enough, but it is also absorbed by the human body extremely quickly, and unless you can use the potion to neutralize the ingredients of the liquor immediately after drinking it, it will have no effect at all." ”

Alice wrapped her fingers around her long hair and said thoughtfully, "That's a whole pot, it seems that he is either the kind of person you say, or he has extraordinary willpower and can keep getting out of bed......"

Speaking of the mellow spirits, Ryan swallowed and smiled, "That's true, I'm starting to be interested in him." ”

"Of course, wine is your eternal lover, and maybe you can talk to him about drinking flaming lava later. The corners of Alice's mouth curled, and she said to the maid waiting at the door, "Jennifer, go and bring Mr. Minethiel in." ”

"Yes, Your Highness. The maid bowed and was about to leave, but she remembered something and hesitated, "Your Highness, what is that gentleman now...... It doesn't seem so good. ”

"It doesn't matter. Alice waved her hand, naturally thinking that the bad in the maid's mouth was caused by a hangover.

Leo is in a very bad state at the moment, but of course it's not because of a hangover, it's because he's too tired.

The night before, Robert had been unconscious and had not been able to wake up. Leo did not dare to delay outside Milton Manor, rested for less than an hour, and after several consecutive tests to make sure that Carbins was no longer there, he left the mage's mansion with Robert on his back. In fact, according to his guess, even if he left the other party in the mage's mansion, it shouldn't be a problem to get it out after he returned. But after all, it has not been tested, and it is related to a human life, so in the end I can only choose to give up.

On the way back to Castle Rock City, Leo was worried that he would encounter an interception, so he cautiously did not return the same way, but deliberately made a big circle and went in another direction. I don't know if it was his caution that worked, or if Cabins didn't send people to chase after him at all, and the road was very smooth. Of course, Shun lì does not include his body lì close to exhaustion, but also carries a sturdy man on his back.

Just walk around and rest. It wasn't until eight o'clock in the morning that Leo finally made his way back to Castle Rock and settled Robert in the Magi's Council.

As for whether the enemy could be tracked down, Leo didn't worry too much, after all, the two didn't leave any hands in Milton Manor, and even if Cabins could suspect Robert based on the sign of the injured mage, it was impossible for him to sneak into the Magi's body to investigate. First of all, it will be very difficult to infiltrate the heavily defended magic. And once it happens, it will be seen as a provocation to the entire magic system. Not to mention that the family behind Capins would not dare, even the royal family would not do this.

The blood-stained nightcoat had long been buried in the wilderness, and time was running out for Leo to take a shower. Just changing his clothes, trying his best to wipe the blood and cover up the smell, he quickly went to the Deslone grocery store and entered the sewers. Get your hands on the most important letters.

After that, Leo hesitated, and his mental and physical strength was violently consumed. Coupled with the fact that he hadn't rested all night, he now felt exhausted and dying. If the person who invited him to meet was just an ordinary nobleman, Leo would not hesitate to release the other party's pigeon, and apologize later. But now, the other party is Her Royal Highness the Imperial Princess, although it seems to be quite reasonable, but God knows if her so-called "punishment" will bring any serious trouble.

In desperation, Leo had no choice but to fight hard, dragged his body that was about to fall apart, took care of a horse, and came to the mansion of Viscount Ktavos.

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

Sitting on the soft sofa in the waiting room, just when Leo was almost asleep, Jennifer, the maid who had gone to report it, finally returned.

As if she couldn't bear to be disturbed, Jennifer waited quietly for a while, until Leo felt someone in front of him and opened his eyes, then said softly: "Mr. Minerhil, Her Royal Highness the Princess asked me to take you in." ”

Leo nodded, standing up, feeling a little more confident about the upcoming meeting. From the maid's appearance, it can be seen that the master is at least not a perverse person.

After a brief search by the two guards, all the way to a study in the upper area of the mansion, Jennifer made a gesture of invitation and said, "Mr. Minahir, Her Royal Highness the Princess is inside." When we meet, please take the initiative to greet you, but don't be nervous, Her Royal Highness the Princess is very approachable. ”

"Okay, thank you. Leo smiled back.

However, the moment he stepped into the study, he suddenly felt a strange atmosphere rushing over him, Alice, who was leaning on the side of the desk, was obviously stunned, and then seemed to be struggling to endure something, and her shoulders trembled slightly.

Leo was a little puzzled, but he couldn't ask questions, so he had to bow and salute: "Good morning princess, it's an honor to see you again." ”

It's okay not to speak, but hearing Leo's weak voice, Alice couldn't hold on anymore and laughed heartily, "Good morning, I'm curious to know what happened to you last night, how did you ...... Hahaha. You're not going to stay up all night, are you?"

"I see......," Leo sighed, and replied in the same words he had prepared, "I really didn't sleep, I vomited all night, and I was still dizzy on the way here, and I had a very unlucky fall." Of course he knew what he was like, his face was pale, his eyes were thick with dark circles, his hair was unkempt and disheveled, and it was unsightly compared to the way he had looked yesterday when he wore his evening gown, and what was worse was that his clothes had been stained with disgusting stains from entering the sewers.

Before Alice could speak again, Ryan suddenly stepped out and stood in front of Leo.

With such a move, Leo suddenly stiffened in place. The man was tall, a head taller than the underdeveloped Leo, and his body was full of explosive power, but none of this was what scared Leo. The pair of sharp knife-like eyes on the other party's ordinary face, as well as the oppressive aura that exuded, really made him feel creepy.

However, he didn't know that this kind of aura was called the Sacred Domain Suppression, and Ryan was a level 10 warrior who had already stepped into the legendary Sacred Realm with half a foot.

"The strength of this man...... It's more powerful than I ever imagined...... Just staring at me, it's like you can see through all of my ......"

Looking at the other party's twitching nose, Leo became more and more flustered, he killed five people in a row last night, even if he had done a lot of cover-ups before, but there was basically no possibility to hide from the person in front of him.

"What should I do?" if he asked, how would I answer?" Leo forced himself to steady his mind, adjusting his breathing, and finally did not make any drastic moves, but his head was spinning rapidly, pondering how to explain.

At the same time, Ryan restrained his breath, looked at Leo seriously, and quickly came to a conclusion: "Although I just subconsciously released a trace of coercion, he was able to stand still, and his heart was very good." Level 1 mage, without certification, the body element zhì is also okay. But this smell of blood...... It's really troublesome. ”

It wasn't difficult for Ryan, who was close to legend, to distinguish the mixed scents, and in just a few breaths, he had mastered all the smells of Leo: blood, burnt, alcohol, the stench of sewers, and a unique smell that had not been identified.

"Hey, he also has a special bloodline?Why isn't this mentioned in the information?" Ryan couldn't help but be a little surprised, but he didn't care about this, and he didn't care why Leo smelled of blood, for him who was murderous, it was normal for a man to have a little blood smell on his body, but Her Royal Highness didn't like it, so it was better to cover it completely, and he also had a lot of experience in this regard.

Thinking of this, Ryan patted Leo on the shoulder and said in a harmonious voice: "Minahir, those who can drink are real men, and I appreciate you for this." But you are very rude to come to see Your Highness like this, come out with me first, I have to clean you up. (To be continued......)
