Chapter 52 Day 3: The Love of the Imperial Rose [Part 1]
In the Palace of King Saint-Cher
Thick white smoke permeated the entire bedroom, and the voice of the Pope praying to the God of Light came from inside.
There was a little irony in Holt's eyes as he walked to the door.This old guy who has played with religion in his hands all his life to strengthen his country has lowered his noble head to the religion he never believed in in his last days.
"I'm very sorry, Your Excellency, the king doesn't want to see you right now." The waiter bowed and stood guard at the door to prevent Holt from going any further.
Holt laughed in a low voice, his laughter seemed to come from the bottom of his throat, with a deep hook and human taste, he didn't stop until the waiter blushed.After taking a deep look inside, he looked at the immature waiter in front of him and said, "Then, I hope His Majesty the King recovers soon~"
After finishing speaking, he simply turned around and left.Only the frivolous words that didn't look like blessings and the waiter with a tangled face remained.
The not-so-smooth life in the early years and the not-so-healthy body made the old guy even weaker after a trip. In addition, the offspring who had been looking forward to half his life died before they knew each other. wise and calm.
Thinking of this, Holt twitched the corners of his mouth, his brown eyes were full of passion as always, but there was a deep sense of sarcasm in the depths.
======
Living in a relatively simple environment with a small number of people for a long time may really reduce people's IQ.
Swift looked at the red-haired and brown-eyed man in front of him who jumped up to provoke him, and didn't know how to react.It's been a long time since I met such a stupid guy.
The one who stopped him directly on the busiest street was a man who was dressed in extremely luxurious clothes - about the materials used, he was passed by Laura Cope last night - a man with the words "high-spirited" all over his body.
"Are you that Swift?" Unlike Pan's provocation yesterday, Swift keenly sensed a deep malice from this guy's expression.
If that's the case, he doesn't have to be polite.Lowering his eyes to hide the coldness in his eyes, Swift put the pendant that he was going to give Laura as a gift into his arms in the circle surrounded by the red-haired man.
"It looks so-so! Does Pan's younger sister have such eyes? Could it be that she is too hungry or thirsty!" The red-haired man let out a disgusting laugh, and the group of people surrounding Swift also let out a laugh. Laughter.
The surrounding crowd were obviously afraid of this group of guys, and they all took a detour.Carefully shrunk aside to watch this obviously deliberate provocation.
"Let's go and tell Master Pan!" Someone whispered at the end of the crowd. It was the shop owner's son who sold Swift the pendant. He was discussing with his father, with hesitation on his face, "Swift... Good! Really! Dad!"
The owner hesitated for a while, finally gritted his teeth, and signaled his son to leave quickly.
========
At the moment, Pan is drinking wine depressedly in the tavern where he usually stays for a long time.They didn't have a mission to go to the misty forest today, but he stayed at home and didn't want to see his little sister turning her elbows outward, so he had no choice but to come to the tavern in broad daylight because of his heartache.
The tavern during the day is not as lively as the evening.The traces of last night's madness have not been completely eliminated, and there are scattered wine glasses everywhere.The lazy shopkeeper drooped his head and looked at Pan who was sitting on the bar slowly tasting wine, expressing deep dislike.
"I still have to sleep in the morning! Pan! If you're really bored, help me clean up."
"..." Pan, who was completely immersed in his own thoughts, ignored this guy at all, his mind was full of what happened yesterday.
With a little inexplicable daydream, he was going to find his cute and charming little sister after dismissing his group of gossip brothers.but!He is at his door!Seeing Swift and Laura kissing each other—even if it turned out to be a misunderstanding—the feeling at that moment was indescribable. He didn't know how to beat up that Swift who dared to belittle his sister , or should I hug my sister and cry, "Sister, your brother and I finally fell in love with a man who suits our appetite, so you can't let him go?"
Even if the misunderstanding was cleared up, he still had a very sour dinner that day.Thinking of it... it's all tears QAQ.Touching his somewhat injured heart, Pan silently said that he should not think about it.
Hear Laura say that Swift is an amnesiac she picked up in the misty forest.On the surface, Pan, who was serious and calculating in his heart, was calculating how much benefit he would get by pulling him into his Pandela team.
First of all, the fog forest can be explored in a wider range, and there is also a candidate to find for some areas that are not dared to go.
Secondly, love for a long time or something... Hehe, anyway, Laura likes him too, and she will be very happy to know that Swift will become her male sister-in-law.
Pan, who was in a beautiful reverie, was awakened by the loud knock on the door.
"Master Pan! It's bad! Swift was caught by Covey!"
===========
True Small-eyed Swift is, by some standards, an easy-going, good-natured fellow.For example, Pan's provocation yesterday, he easily let him go. At most, he just chatted with Laura after finding out that he was a sister-controller, and didn't do many excessive things.
But for the red-haired man who was still provoking him non-stop at this moment, he didn't want to let him go so easily.From his words just now and the chaotic discussions of the people around him, Swift knew that this was the leader of the second largest force in this small city of Sein - Covey.Although this Covey is not on the same level as the other nobles he met in this world in terms of EQ and IQ, since he is the leader of the second largest force, there must still be a lot of good things that can be squeezed out.
Thinking of this, Swift raised his head and looked at Covey with a little contempt: "The great Lord Covey? What do you want to do?"
It obviously sounds like a very respectful sentence, but it sounds harsh, and Covey is a little upset.The year-round comfortable life and relatively simple environment inflated his ambition to become No. 1 in Sein City. For example, if Pan advocated to communicate with that legendary other continent, he would never agree!No matter how stupid he is, he still knows how to communicate with the outside world. The possible consequence is that he is even worse than Pan.The matter of the other continent is actually an open secret that is only circulated among the aristocratic circle and top forces.
No nobleman would be foolish enough to tell the civilians about this. It would make them think something they shouldn't have. This is absolutely not allowed.Who would have thought that there would be such an outlier as Pan, with red eyes that are different from ordinary people, and his father's unknown background, it stands to reason that he belongs to the lowest-end commoners, but because of his tyrannical strength, he squeezed into the aristocratic circle and became the number one power.This matter made Covey want to eat Pan alive for countless days and nights!
Ke Wei, who became more angry, smiled maliciously: "Don't say that I won't give you a chance, Mr. Ke Wei. You contradicted me in the street. It stands to reason-you should be a capital punishment. But! Today, my lord, I will give you your life." You and our Covey team will go to the misty forest separately, and whoever can get the most valuable item will win."
