The Dean Has Arrived

"The address is correct, it is indeed right here..."

Xiwei carefully checked the banquet address on the back of the invitation, and then looked up at the façade in front of him. It was even more luxurious than the city’s lord’s castle: “It’s unexpected to be able to hold a banquet in this place. Rich."

　　 It’s also the first time Alisa has been to this kind of place, but it may be because of the large number of people. Compared with the casual look around in the castle, she now looks a little embarrassed.

　　 It was Tio, who was holding the corners of Sivi's robe, still looked expressionless.

　　 "Ah, dear Master Master, you are finally here!"

　　 Just when Xiwei was about to step on the wide and long stairs at the entrance of the hotel, a short figure stumbled over from the doorway above. Because of its short legs, it seemed to run extremely hard.

　　 "Sasangsang has been waiting for you for a long time, come on, please inside!" The goblin said hurriedly while panting and rubbing his shiny forehead.

　　 Its fat and ugly face is full of solitary expressions, which makes Siwei feel a little strange.

　　 It’s normal if it’s just to please. After all, as a mage, and I have a life-saving grace for it, it’s not surprising that I want to flatter myself. But this kind of fear-like performance is too strange... He hasn't grown into a man-eating appearance.

　　 If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Is this also the conspiracy of the lord’s wife? Xi Wei raised his eyebrows lightly, on the surface calmly, but secretly he was on guard, but only relying on the other person's look determined that it was too rude to be deceitful, so Xi Wei followed the goblin slowly into the hotel .

　　 Speaking of the banquet, it is obvious that Xiwei and the goblins cannot be the only participants. In fact, there are already many people wearing gorgeous dresses in the hotel lobby.

　　 However, judging from the various chamber of commerce patterns on the chest or back of the dress, the fat goblin invited only some merchants from the ordinary chamber of commerce.

　　 This is normal, Xiwei didn't intend to see nobles at a banquet held by a goblin merchant—those with eyes above the top and civilians who are humans discriminate, let alone goblins.

　　 Among such a group of businessmen, Sevi, wearing a robe of a mage, and Alyssa and Tio, who are cute as dolls, immediately became their focus.

　　 After Sha Sang Sang welcomed Xi Wei and the others in, merchants kept coming up to talk to them, but they were all cleverly rejected by Sha Sang Sang.

　　 This also made Xiwei feel that this fat goblin had any intentions.

　　 The hotel lobby covers an extremely large area, even larger than the banquet hall in the castle. It was obviously impossible for only a hundred people to fill such an empty place, and soon Shasangsang took Xiwei and them to a corner with no one.

"Fa, Master Master..." After coming to this corner full of decorative bonsai, the goblin squatted and said, "Well, actually I invite you to come here today... because someone wants to talk to you... …"

　　 Is it finally time to get to the point? Siwei remained silent, waiting for Sa Sangsang to continue, wanting to see what medicine he sold in the gourd.

"If, if possible..." Sha Sangsang looked to one side of the corner, and Xiwei followed its gaze, and found that there was a staircase leading to the second floor. He was actually covered by the bonsai branches. I didn't find it.

　　 What will there be? A powerful magician or swordsman? Or some kind of alchemy trap?

　　 Xiwei frowned, no matter what it was, it would not be a good thing for him.

"Master Mage!" Seeing Xiwei's hesitant expression, Shasangsang mustered up the courage from nowhere, and resolutely said: "Relax! This is definitely not a bad thing. Shasangsang can swear with the freedom of his clan! "

Sivi looked at the fat goblin with a serious expression in surprise. The slick goblins don’t like to swear. Although this doesn’t mean that the oath they swear must be true, it also adds a little bit to their words. Credibility.

After thinking about it for a while, Sevi stuffed two small **** to Alyssa. They are sonic bombs and flash bombs. The former can be used to notify Sevi what's happening outside, and the latter can be used to make the little girl. We have the ability to deal with some things.

　　 And he himself walked into the stairs cautiously-he didn't want Alisha and Tio to accompany him on the adventure anyway.

　　 At the end of the stairs is a door. Judging from the number, this seems to be a hotel staff room, but at this time, it will definitely not be a hotel staff.

　　 Xiwei opened the door cautiously, the action of opening the door did not trigger any traps, and then he opened the door.

　　 The staff room is very small, and the furnishings inside are very simple. Against the backdrop of three white walls, three dilapidated sofas, a short coffee table and a wardrobe are all the furniture.

　　 However, it was the two people sitting on the sofa that caught Xiwei's attention at the moment.

　　 It was a weird combination of a girl about twenty years old and an old lady who looked sixty or seventy years old.

　　 "Sevi Adric?" The girl in a goose-yellow jumpsuit and dress first asked after spotting Siv's head in the doorway.

　　 "Who are you?" Xi Wei walked slowly into the room, and he was not surprised that the other party was able to say his name... After all, it was him who called him.

　　 And compared to a girl, Xiwei always has a more dangerous feeling for the old woman next to her without a trace of magic fluctuations.

　　 "Can you please close the door before introducing yourself?" the girl said with a smile.

Xiwei hesitated, but he closed the door according to his words. At this time, he discovered that half of the magic circle was painted on the door and the wall next to him. Even though Xiwei was messed up by the system, The total amount is comparable to the knowledge of high-level magicians, and it can only be recognizable that the magic array effect seems to be soundproofing.

"So you don't have to be afraid of others eavesdropping." The girl stood up generously and reached out to Xiwei: "My name is Evangeline, Evangeline Huolian. Nice to meet you, Xivi · Mr. Adric."

　　 "Well, me too, Yiwen...eh, Huolian?" Xiwei just wanted to hold the girl's hand, but the whole person froze like that: "The emperor... Your Royal Highness?!"

　　 Evangeline seemed to enjoy Xiwei's reaction. She shook Xiwei's hand with a smirk, then let go and sat back on the sofa.

　　 "Yes, in front of you is the eldest princess of the Huolian Empire." At this time, the old woman said aloud: "As for the old body, it is not a famous person, let alone mention it."

　　 Why does the princess of a country suddenly appear in front of him? This is too much to expand!

　　 Xiwei stared at Evangeline blankly for a few seconds before realizing that it was impolite to do so, so he immediately lowered his eyes.

　　 As for the possibility of pretending to be a princess...just kidding, who would pretend to be a princess when he’s full, and he’s too comfortable to live and want to die.

"Teacher Sharon, you are too humble." The girl smiled and pointed out the identity of the old woman: "If you are not well-known as the chief priest of Huolian, then there will probably be no celebrities in the entire empire except for the mother. ."

　　 "Sharon...the royal worship master mage..." Xiwei said these two names in his heart, and then a name appeared in his mind.

　　 "Are you Mrs. Sharon Lange?" he asked cautiously.

　　 "You are a guest of your Highness today, don't be so cautious." Madam Sharon smiled kindly, but did not deny the name either.

　　How could it be casual in front of the only great magician in the Huolian Empire! Xiwei nodded tremblingly.

　　 It's no wonder that he has always been more sensitive to magical power, but he can't perceive the slightest fluctuation of the other's magic power... It's all because of the level difference!

　　 "Um...what the **** did the two of you ask me for today?"

"I have two things to go south this time." As if deliberately trying to suffocate Xiwei's appetite, the girl began to say to herself: "One of them is to investigate the recent appearance of Jackal in Noeg. s reason."

Suddenly, Siviy, when the Jackal was besieging Teo, he took a shot and solved a batch. Later, when the Jackal appeared near Khoradur, he passed by the scene of the incident and found the only survivor, Sand. Sangsang, then it's normal for the princess to come and find out about the situation.

　　 As for how the other party knew that he had dealt with the wolves...I want to have the Great Mage Sharon here, it is not surprising to find anything from that place.

　　 Just when Xiwei thought he had grasped the point of the subsequent conversation, Evangeline continued.

　　 "But that thing is fine, the key thing is another thing...It's about the little girl you saved, Tio Scanji."

　　 "……"

　　 So why! Why would a majesty princess care about such matters among the nobles!

　　 Xiwei, who has been completely unable to keep up with the topic of Her Royal Highness, deeply felt at this moment that she had too little experience to see through the essential deficiencies of the matter.

"Actually, Tio, it's the child of his mother and Duke Scanji." Before Sevi could get over, Princess Eventine dropped a blockbuster again: "I am also my half-sister. ."

　　 "Wait, this is too weird!" Sivi finally couldn't help but said, "If Tio is really a princess, then why should Duke Scanji bring it back as an illegitimate daughter?"

Although the 　　Huolian Empire is not without male ruling, but for some reason, it is often dominated by the queen, so the status of the princess is also rising. If Tio is really a princess, then there is no reason to live outside the palace.

　　 "Because the situation was not peaceful eight years ago, but this has nothing to do with you." The girl waved her hand to signal Sivi not to continue to worry about this question: "Anyway, you only need to know that Tio really has royal blood."

　　 "Then your Royal Highness, are you here to take Tio back this time?"

　　 For some reason, Sivi suddenly thought of the [Girl's Home] mission. Is the palace the real place for Tio?

　　 "Of course not," Evangeline's decisive voice brought Sivi's thoughts back to reality: "Tio just needs to continue to be the heir of Duke Scanji. It is not good for her to return to the palace or something."

"But it's even worse for Tio to stay in Noegge now!" I don't know if it was because of Tio's identity that the impact was too great or some other reason, Xiwei temporarily put the other party's princess identity aside, and She said tit-for-tat: "You may not know, in fact..."

　　 Evangeline made a calm gesture, and then said softly: "Don't worry, we also understand the situation of Noegge now. Or, we are here to solve this matter."

　　 Xiwei took a deep breath and calmed himself down: "Then you don't need to come to me at all. As long as you can see Lord Lord, then the truth is not far away, right?"

"So it's not that simple." The girl said with a wry smile: "In fact, even if I ask to meet the Lord Duke in the name of official business, Mrs. Scanji can get rid of her illness. If you want to see him, you can only Use a tougher attitude, but in this way, among the nobles, the reputation of the royal family will be greatly damaged."

　　 At this point, Xiwei also understood the other party's concerns a little bit: "But what does this have to do with finding me?"

"Since the status of a public family is not enough, then it is enough to visit Duke Skangi with the personal status of'Tio's friend." The girl said her purpose without delay: "But Tio is too vigilant. It's serious. Although I don't know how you did it, she seems to be open to you, the master and apprentice. In this way, our plan needs your help to a certain extent. "

"I understand."

　　Sivillo thought about it and agreed with the girl's words: "But I have one more question."

　　 The girl looked at Xiwei with amber eyes curiously: "What question?"

"Didn’t the law of the Huolian Empire stipulate that only blood relatives can inherit the title?" Sivi immediately asked the question that had plagued him for a long time: "In this way, if the lord’s wife designed to kill Tio, the title and the fief would be the royal It's right to take it back, so why didn't she just take Tio to create a puppet regime~www.readwn.com~ instead of doing such a thankless thing?"

"So you don't know it yet." The girl sighed helplessly: "Mrs. Scanji is still pregnant. In other words, as long as she gives birth to a baby, she will be able to take over Noegge. As for what she is pregnant with. Whose child is it... When that baby is born, Duke Scanji has passed away, there is no way to verify it."

　　 "That's why she will spare no effort to deal with Tio..." Sivi also sank his face: "So, apart from Lord Lord, Tio doesn't seem to have anyone close."

　　 is an illegitimate daughter after all, and the lady of the lord doesn’t wait to see her. Naturally, the servants will not take the risk of being put on shoes by the lady of the lord to take care of Tio.

　　 "You are wrong." Evangeline smiled, but that smile was unexpectedly bitter: "Even Duke Scanji, Tio is not close."

　　 "How could it be..." Xiwei was stunned: "Obviously it is his own child."

"Compared to his own children, I am afraid that in the eyes of the Lord Duke, Tio is more like a bargaining chip with his mother." The girl sneered: "You know why Noegmim already has the Border Guard Corps. Do you still have the right to form your own army?"

　　 "Your Royal Highness!" At this time, the old lady Sharon who had been silent for a while said: "You said too much."

　　 "Sorry." The girl put away her previous expression, and returned to her previous gentle smile: "It's a bit gaffe. However, I believe Mr. Adric will never say it, right (laugh)?"

　　 "……"

　　 That smile is terrible... ★It has nothing to do with the text, thank you reader Wのi, let’s go through it together~
