As for what the other side said......

Accidental.

The situation is compelling.

Not a personal vendetta?

Tails narrowed his eyes and looked at Jenn, who was trying to control himself, but the words of the Duke of the Western Wilderness sounded in his head:

[Before accepting their kindness, remember: they are only against your father, but they are not truly loyal to you.] 】

"Oh, really?"

Tails said coldly:

"So, six years ago, you lent the Vineyard Manor to Serena by accident?"

"You are also 'forced by the situation' to let the Queen of Night chase me after performing some kind words?"

Jenn's face suddenly turned ugly.

"Coincidentally," Tails sneered, sitting upright.

"Do you know what lesson did Lady Serena teach me what you taught me?"

Jenn's eyes froze in the void, fluttering with his breath.

"But that's what you said, times have changed. ”

"We have to look forward. ”

But Tails shook his head slowly, and said word by word:

"No, Your Excellency, I refuse your offer—for I don't believe you at all. ”

The two faced each other silently, with normal posture and proper etiquette.

But the atmosphere has a tension that outsiders can't imagine.

Duke Iris's eyebrows struggled for a long time, and his words seemed to be a little difficult:

"I did my best, kindly suggesting, even begging you, Tails, at least ......"

But Tails didn't want to pay attention to the other party's acting skills at all, and he interrupted the other party with a smile:

"Quick question: Why did I go to Exeter back then?"

Jenn lifted his eyes.

"For sightseeing, to broaden one's knowledge, to eat and drink, to find a wife?"

Tails shook his head with a slurp:

"Neither...... Oh yes, I remembered. ”

Tails' eyes sharpened, and his tone tightened:

"Because, a group of domestic vassals banded together to attack and kill the Exeter Mission, only to be used by others, which attracted the thunderous wrath of King Nunn. ”

"And we need a big boss to clean up the mess and wipe their butts?"

Jenn didn't speak.

"But why did they attack the Exeter Mission?"

Tails leaned forward to the other with a gloomy expression:

"Why are you?"

"Duke Jenn Cavendier?"

Jenn's eyebrows fluctuated.

"It's been six years since you've been a prince, and now you're the Duke of Star Lake - no matter how stupid and stupid the Yankees are, they should have taught you: there are some things that we can't help ourselves. ”

Duke Iris's eyes were completely cold, and his tone was no longer polite:

"The events of the past, one yard to one yard, should not continue to the present, let alone implicate others. ”

One yard to one yard?

Tails smiled.

The prince's expression also sank, and his eyes showed a chill:

"Tell me, Jenn, even now, have you ever thought about ......"

"Back then, if I hadn't shown up, or maybe I would have died at the hands of a vampire or an Exeter. ”

Tails chuckled his chin towards the banquet hall:

"Then today, with this title, occupying this manor, sitting in this position, watching the bustling crowd of guests below......"

"It's going to be you?"

Jenn jerked his head up!

"Tails, this is the last time, consider your decision carefully," Duke Iris gritted his teeth, implicitly threatening:

"I've made enough concessions, and I've made sincere offers. ”

"Don't force me to be your enemy, you won't think of that. ”

But Tails sneered.

"One last concession?"

Tails shook his head with a slurp:

"'If you don't cooperate with me, I'll be your enemy. 'You call this a concession?'

Jenn stared at him, and the friendly Duke of Iris was long gone.

"I've never forced you, Jenn, your so-called 'forced'," Tails said coldly, "It's just that you yourself can't withstand the shaking of the outside world, and it's just your own choice." ”

"On the contrary, from the past to the present, from the beginning to the end, it is you who are pushing me. ”

Tyles with Warning:

"And everyone, they have to pay for their choices. ”

At this moment, the two looked at each other, and the temperature seemed to drop to the extreme.

Jenn snorted.

"When you are young, maybe you are careless, fearless. ”

"But as you grow up, experience and have more, maybe you will understand that friends are much more important than enemies. ”

Jenn whispered:

"It is better to die because of friendship than to die as an enemy. ”

But Tails laughed.

"You know, when I first arrived in Longxiao City, the invincible Nunn VII also threatened me with this: either cooperate obediently or die obediently. ”

Jenn's eyes moved.

Tails' smile cooled:

"Guess what happened to him that night?"

"Jenn Cavendeel, how much harder is your head than his?"

Jenn didn't speak.

But in the next second, the anger on his face melted like ice and snow, turning into a smile.

It was as if the elegant, civilized, gentle and friendly Duke of Iris had returned.

But at that moment, Tails only felt a chill in his heart.

"Tell me, Your Highness. ”

Jenn smiled undiminishedly, and said word by word:

"You went to the north once, and after six years of peaceful life, did you really become strong and fearless, tenacious and strong?"

Tails frowned.

"No, the truth is, you know it yourself. ”

"In the past six years, you have been alone in the enemy country, but you have still been able to return safely without fear, and you can have the glory and fame and fortune you have today, because of the strong backing you rely on—because of his supreme crown and scepter. ”

Tails was shocked.

Jenn's dangerous smile made Tails extremely uneasy:

"And now, as the heir of the kingdom, you are out of danger, back to the shadow of the kingdom, back to the shadow of the throne, back to the vision of kingship......"

Duke Iris chuckled:

"Guess what, will the strong backing give you unreserved shelter and support because of the situation between us and the enemy?"

"And you, you can, dare to repeat the masterpiece on which you have become famous, like rejecting King Nunn, like shaking King Chaman......"

"Reject him, shake him?"

At that moment, it was as if there was some kind of force that bound Tails firmly from the inside out.

He made his chest dull and unable to move.

"Second Prince, Duke of Xinghu, Kingdom Bloodline, Ha, you know very well, and you are even more frightened. ”

Tails breathed hard.

As if smelling Tails' feelings, Jenn's tone began to tighten:

"Believe me, you can get a lot more hurt in the Star Realm than you can in Exeter. ”

A cold glint flashed in his eyes:

"And those who can hurt you are much stronger than the Grand Dukes in the Northlands. ”

Tails stared at him without saying a word.

"How does it feel, Your Highness, when this happens to you?"

Duke Cavendier snorted:

"This feeling of being torn apart and covered up, holding on to the point, unprotected, and threatened?"

It took all his strength for Tails to resist the desire to turn his head and turn into anger.

"Threat?" Tails knew that he could not show weakness, let alone show clues, and his tone was steady: "No, Your Excellency the Duke. ”

"You know, it's not me you're threatening, it's the Bright Star Royal Family, and it's my father. ”

Jenn chuckled.

"Then go tell him. ”

The smile in his eyes made Tails very uncomfortable:

"Tell him that the Duke of the South Shore is not on good terms with you, when everyone loves you, flatters you, and looks to you...... He dared to speak outrageously and maliciously threatened. ”

"Look at your father, look at our King Majesty, who loves the people like a son, is he inclined to stand up for his son, to accomplish you, to love you, to carry you up?"

"Or would you rather think of me as a good axe in this kingdom that can strike you, threaten you, and suppress you?"

The chill in Tails' heart reached its peak.

It has not diminished a bit.

It was a kind of unbearable chill when the mask and disguise, armor and clothing were completely torn apart.

"As I said, this book has nothing to do with our family, so it doesn't have to be involved," Jenn shook his head slightly:

"But you have to be obsessed and obsessed. ”

Tails looked at him sharply.

"So what can you do?"

Duke Xinghu bit out the words from between his teeth, but he knew that there was no power to fight back:

"Send another female vampire to kill me, kill his heir?"

"Let's see, how will my father react?"

Jenn responded with a sneer.

"Didn't we try it once," said Jenn Cavendier.

"You're hurt, he's benefiting—isn't he satisfied?"

Tails breathlessed.

"So, is this a declaration of war?" said the prince, gritting his teeth.

Jenn stood up slightly, still amiable and friendly.

"No, of course not. ”

Jenn replied with a spring breeze on his face, and then turned into a bitter chill:

"Next time. ”

"And believe me, I can do so much more than that. ”

Tails clenched his fists.

"Well, then, I wish you a pleasant evening, His Royal Highness the Duke of Star Lake. ”

Duke Iris, Jenn Cavendier, saluted gracefully and sarcastically said his final goodbye:

"May you ...... for friendship"

"Don't die as an enemy. ”

Tails looked at Jenn's distant back, trying to regain his status as the qualified master of the Mindis Hall.

But he found that it wasn't that easy.

Jenn Cavendeer.

What the hell is this guy crazy about?

During the banquet, with the departure of King Kessel, old people such as Prime Minister Cullen also left, but most of the guests were still present, drinking and laughing freely.

Because of the departure of the elders, the banquet hall became even more noisy, and the laughter and shouts became more frantic and unbridled.

The man in charge of the flag wing was urging Duke Arend to leave, but the latter was slow and obviously not cooperative.

Most of the Seven Bright Stars remained in place, and they seemed to have made up their minds to show their attitude towards Duke Xinghu.

The only thing that made Tails happy was that because the revelry in the banquet hall had reached a new stage, there was no one to disturb His Royal Highness.

Marlos finally had a chance to come up and report back to him.

"You and Duke Cavendier seem to have a good conversation?"

Tails snorted softly, trying his best to suppress his emotions:

"Very nice. ”

"We're old acquaintances, old friends. ”

It's so old that it will blow up as soon as you pick it up.

Marlos looked at Jenn's back and thoughtfully:

"Then, if you have any doubts, Your Highness, you may wish to consult your friend who is a vigilante officer. ”

Vigilante Friend......

Tails was stunned:

"What?"

"You mean—Cohen?"

Marlos nodded:

"The Karabayan family of Vola Collar has always been the pillars of the South Bank, and they have been friends with the Cavendier family of the Emerald City for generations, so they couldn't have known better. ”

"Especially," said Marlos, looking at the expressionless Tails, and then at the Duke of Iris in the distance:

"Resolve grudges and make peace in the middle. ”

"Of course, when I say 'ask for advice,' I mean to contact his father through that officer of the Cohen Karabiyan guard, and then ask for advice. ”

And not that stupid big guy.

Settle grudges......

Tails was taken aback.

He quickly pinched his face to make sure he didn't show hatred or anger:

"Is it so obvious?"

"No, you're doing a great job, you're better than last time," Marios said calmly, confirming that his senses were still sharp:

"It's just that you know, I'm sensitive to the emotions and the atmosphere around me, well, more sensitive. ”

Tails sighed.

"Okay, speaking of which...... What about the Assassins?"

Marhros was silent for a moment.

"We're ready and we're waiting for him to show up. ”

The watchman was still unwavering, but Tails, who had been with him for a long time, still sensed that Marlos was not very happy at the moment.

"However, until His Majesty left the scene......"

Marlos said lightly:

"To be honest, if he doesn't show up again, even I will start to wonder if I'm too nervous. ”

"Oh, that's your rare self-knowledge, Marios. ”

The two turned back in unison: Captain Vogel stepped forward with a frown and saluted Tails:

"Your Highness, although Your Majesty is gone, I have been assigned to stay with some men until the end of the banquet to ensure your safety. ”

Tails squeezed out a smile:

"Thank you. ”

"Don't thank me," Vogel looked at Marlos dissatisfied:

"I want to thank someone for their selfless advice and dedication once again. ”

Marlos was expressionless.

Glovo and Doyle both returned, but their return was still normal.

"Maybe after His Majesty left, he gave up. ”

Tails pinched his forehead tiredly, from Thelma to Jenn, his head was now packed, and he didn't want to talk about the assassin at all:

"It's okay, it's a good thing. ”

"Or maybe he's still waiting, including waiting for His Majesty to leave," said Marlos, looking around the banquet, as if unwilling:

"And this is the time to do it. ”

Vogel snorted sarcastically from his nose.

Tails could only smirk helplessly.

"After Your Majesty leaves...... So you mean, he's supposed to be here to kill me?"

"Or, one of the dukes there?"

Marlos did not answer.

Tails sincerely looks forward to:

For example, the one with the surname Cavendeille?

On the other side, Duke Jenn returned to his seat, smiling and welcoming all the way, kind and kind.

Amazing as always.

His old butler, Ashford, poured a glass of wine for his master without saying a word.

It was Jenn who spoke first:

"Ashford, when you get back, look up the collection of books at home — I mean, banned books, no matter how old they are. ”

Ashford nodded expressionlessly:

"What are you looking for?"

"A mage," Jenn said lightly:

"It's called Hegel. ”

Ashford frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.

Mage.

Magic.

Jenn was silently disdainful in his heart.

Damn the Bright Star Royalty.

It's true, you dare to teach anything to your children and grandchildren.

Jenn thought so and looked at Duke Starlake.

At the same time, Tails was also looking at Duke Iris.

Their eyes met in the air, one friendly and the other indifferent.

It's just as complex.

Both of them are a wall in their hearts.

As if there was a tacit understanding, they smiled at each other in unison and bowed their heads at the same time.

And the mysterious assassin.

Shoot right now.
