When Thales was full of resentment, rode through the first city gate under heavy guards, and returned to the Palace of Heroes, his mind was filled with countless doubts.

According to Ashida, there are only a few magicians, but there are still many factions:

Headed by B, the radicals who started the war, the most powerful faction ever, and the real "disaster" with many crimes: According to Ashida, they are a group of out-and-out lunatics who destroy both the world and themselves, but it is true ? Thales always felt that even the unreasonable Giza didn't seem to be such a crazy existence.

Represented by Ashida, the moderates who reject war: Ashida describes themselves as a group of pacifists who do not fight against the world, and the world is scattered, but in Thales’ view, for now, no matter what Whether it is manipulating the underground world of the Star Kingdom, or chasing Thales, the magician of Qi is the most active magician who wants to change the status quo.

The two confuses who consider themselves human beings, so they confront the radicals: Ashida has a strange attitude towards them, neither hating nor approving, but full of empathy and pity. Where are those two people now? How is the situation?

Also, when Thales thought of this, his heart tightened:

Bloodthorn and Black Orchid.

The traitors of magicians named Queen of Magic are shrouded in the most fog: Why did they betray? And how did you betray him? Why did Ashida hate them more than the Confused Ones who were on the side of the world? What about them now?

Thales sighed, saddled off his horse next to the stables of the Palace of Heroes, pulled out the book from the saddle, comforted the reluctant Jenny, and handed the reins to the groom.

He just took the "first lesson", facing the world, the confusion in his heart has not decreased but increased: the more he knows, the more questions he has.

While he was thinking deeply, Huai Ya behind him poked the young prince, and said cautiously and vigilantly, "Your Highness."

Thales, who came back to his senses, raised his head and saw the object that made both Wyatt and Rolf quite uneasy.

It was a pale man leaning against the stable with his arms crossed, and a black-handled saber tied obliquely behind his back.

He raised his head towards the prince and his party, showing sharp and unfriendly eyes—including Lord Justin, the Grand Duke’s personal guard and palace guards nodded to him one after another—exuding a dangerous aura that no strangers should enter.

Just like Thales met him for the first time.

"It's already six o'clock," the man said coldly, "and I said five o'clock."

Thales rolled his eyes helplessly towards the setting sun.

"Shouldn't you be busy protecting the safety of Your Majesty the Grand Duchess?" The prince slapped the dust off his body and bid farewell to Jenny, once again watching the situation where this beautiful girl caused other similar commotions after being led into the stable:

"Why do you have the time to come and see a foreign prince who has no power, no influence, and nothing to do?"

"Lord Nicolai?"

Seri Nikolai——The legendary commander who was downgraded from the White Blade Guard to the Grand Duke's Guard has reached middle age. Wei became more stable and reliable, and more cautious.

Wyatt turned his head anxiously, trying to find Ada, but after a few seconds, he turned around with a sigh—the dwarf probably left the prince again, and went hunting in the countryside privately.

The Meteor snorted coldly.

"Maybe others think you are inconspicuous. You usually just read books and play chess. At most, you skip class and play hide-and-seek." Nicolai, as always, scanned his target with unpleasant scrutiny, with a bad tone: " but I know……"

The meteorite lowered his arms, his eyes were sharp:

"You are the most troublesome person in the Palace of Heroes."

Thales sighed helplessly, turned and walked out of the stable, passing Nicolai.

"Thank you for your appreciation, excuse me first..."

at this moment,

Taylor's shoulders suddenly sank!

"Snapped!"

The prince turned his head, looked at the hand of the meteorite holding his shoulder, and frowned slightly.

Wyah and Rolf quickly took two steps forward, the attendant put his hand on the single-edged sword, and the ghost with the wind pulled out two daggers from his waist.

The people around them also reacted quickly: the people from the stars consciously formed a semicircle to keep out the people from the north who were also nervous.

"Let go of the prince."

Huai Ya watched, warning solemnly.

"Relax, relax," Thales exhaled before the scene got out of control, and waved his subordinates to retreat: "Lord Nicolai always likes to joke with me."

The prince looked at the meteorite who was still holding his shoulder, and raised his eyebrows: "Yes."

Nicolai stared at him for a full five seconds before letting go of the boy in front of him.

Only then did Huai Ya, who was vigilant at the side, breathe a sigh of relief, and the tense atmosphere around him also eased.

But at the moment Thales shrugged, the Meteor suddenly reached out his hand again.

"Snapped!"

Nikolai's movements were so fast and the trajectory was so weird that the prince couldn't react at all. He could only watch helplessly as the meteorite's hand flicked and twitched. Bring out the thick brown book from the palace!

But at that moment, Thales' expression changed drastically like a lion cub with fur fried.

Like a most loyal partner, the sin of prison river originated from every inch of his body, surged up his left arm, and filled every joint from shoulder, elbow to wrist.

The moment the book left his hand, Thales's left arm was several times faster than usual, and he quickly grabbed it with his backhand!

"Boom!"

He held onto the spine of the book tightly!

The crime of prison river surged back again, filling his arm muscles, gradually increasing the strength in Thales's hand, and he refused to give up.

The entourage's hands were on their blades again: the tension in the air was back.

"Your Highness!" Huai Ya shouted anxiously: "Be careful..."

"Stand back, Wyah!" Thales said solemnly, preventing his subordinates from pulling out his weapon from his waist: "Lord Nicolai's joke is a bit big, that's all."

Damn.

This guy... Thales stared at Nicolai:

He just wouldn't let me go.

The brown book stopped in mid-air—the Prince of Stars and the Meteor grabbed one side of the book and stood in a stalemate with each other.

"Oh, that's rare." Nikolai felt the gradually increasing strength in his hand, and couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes: "If you can also perform like this in daily swordsmanship practice..."

"You'll fuck me even worse." Thales interrupted him coldly, refusing to let go of the book in his hand.

Nicolai pursed his lips.

"You know, I've always been very strange." The meteorite's eyes ooze with a strange cold light: "For three consecutive years, playing chess with myself in an empty box, don't you feel bored?"

"No way," Thales said without showing any weakness, "who told you that you can't play chess, and the grand duchess's chess skills are in a mess."

"That's right," Nicolai sneered, "There must be people in the secret department who can play chess."

Thales clenched his back molars, thinking something was wrong.

"Maybe you shouldn't be so rude to me," the prince sighed, his arms trembling in the wrestling began to turn sore: "Your Majesty the Grand Duchess..."

"Your Majesty the Grand Duchess must remember how her grandfather died!" Nikolai interrupted him faster than him, with an expression on his face reminiscent of a hunter catching prey:

"Is not it."

Telston was at a loss for words.

The next moment, Nicolai pushed and pulled the book in his hand!

Thales has no way of grasping the opponent's sudden mutation skills and strength, and the agility and strength brought by the crime of prison river are useless. He can only stare blankly, watching Nicolai take the book again .

"I didn't know you were still interested in the Temple of Knights." Nicolai looked at the title of the book on the cover, and then glanced at the ugly Prince of Stars with interest: "But..."

The Meteorite patted the spine of the book with one hand, and the book automatically opened to the page that the user turned most often, lying flat on Nicolai's wide, calloused palm.

In the middle of the pages of the book, there is a thin piece of sky blue paper.

Thales clenched his fists, breathing faster.

That is……

"Oh, that makes sense..." Nicolai narrowed his eyes, curled the corners of his mouth, gently picked up the blue tissue paper, and looked at Thales' livid face with interest:

"A message? Is that why you want to play chess?"

That's an invitation.

Thales said silently, he held back the anxiety in his heart, and reached out to stop his subordinates from moving.

"It's just a meaningless sentence," the prince said calmly, "You know..."

Nikolai cut him off with a chuckle.

"Then let's take a look..." In front of the prince, Nikolai smiled with a confident smile, shook off the thin paper, and read the words on it:

"fall from the sky……"

But Nikolai just pronounced the first syllable, and his pale face changed slightly.

He raised his head abruptly, and turned his gaze from the thin paper back to Thales.

Thales blinked.

"Is this some kind of joke?"

The meteorite said coldly: "Little prince."

He turned the hard paper in his hand, and the sky blue thin paper was spread out in front of Thales.

Both Wyatt and Rolf leaned their heads forward.

On the thin paper in Nicolai's hand, there is only one neat line of common language on it, which is written in a standard patterned font:

[The Meteorite Idiot. 】

Rolf whistled and drew his head back.

Wyatt muttered something, suppressed a smile, and didn't look at Nicolai's expression.

"Look, I said it, a meaningless sentence." Thales touched his head in embarrassment, using this action to relieve the soreness caused by the crime of prison river: "You have to read it yourself."

Nikolai stared into the prince's eyes, his eyes burning.

His deputy, Lord Justin frowned slightly, and stepped forward to remind him: "Boss, the sky is changing."

The meteorite closed his mouth in dissatisfaction, and snorted out of his nose.

Nikolai with a bad expression crumpled the thin paper in his hand, and threw the book back to Thales:

"Little prince, you'd better be careful with me."

"Let's use a new word next time." Thales caught the book and pretended to blow the dust on it: "I'm used to it."

"No."

"What I mean is," Nicolai's eyes turned cold, and his words carried deep meaning: "Be careful."

At that moment, Thales' pupils shrank.

"What do you mean?" the prince asked lightly.

From Nicolai's words, Thales smelled something unusual.

"It's literally."

Nikolai ruthlessly tore up the thin paper in his hand: "Dragon Clouds City has not been peaceful recently."

"And you are the most interesting bargaining chip in Dragon Clouds City."

While tearing the thin paper in his hand, the meteorite stepped forward slowly, approaching Thales' face with great pressure, and his tone became more and more frightening: "Of course, if you and the hand behind you want to do something What……"

Thales frowned.

at this moment.

"enough!"

It was a clear and loud female voice, slightly immature, that sounded out of nowhere in the open space outside the stable.

Thales let out a breath, and Nicolai snorted unhappily in response.

Wyah relaxed his expression, he turned his head and made a "saved" mouth shape to Rolf.

There were footsteps outside the stables.

A blond girl in a dark brown one-piece dress came to the stables surrounded by the Grand Duke's personal guards on both sides. An old but dignified old nobleman walked vigorously by her side. The staid Ms. Jinx Take two maids and follow behind them.

Beside the stables, both the Grand Duke's personal guards and the palace guards all retreated and saluted respectfully.

"Lord Nicolai," the girl who came suddenly continued to speak her bright voice, like a lark singing softly, making people feel that the setting sun is picking up again: "Prince Thales is our distinguished guest, and also Dragon Clouds City. ally, he represents the friendship between the Canxing family and the Star Kingdom."

"And you should show the bearing and actions that are in line with the honor of the Northlanders, my personal guard captain."

The girl's eyes looked straight at Nicolai, who was confronting Thales, with a calm expression, but an inexplicable sense of indifference:

"After all, we fought alongside him."

The meteorite took a breath, glanced at the prince, and then took a step back, bowing slightly to the girl.

"Of course," Nicolai said coldly, "as you wish."

"Your Majesty the Grand Duchess."

Thales shrugged, he turned around, and showed a friendly smile to the girl who rescued him.

At some point, the sloppy little cunning guy he met six years ago has turned into a bright and beautiful fifteen-year-old girl.

The current Grand Duchess of Dragon Clouds, Selma Walton, made Thales, who was facing each other day and night, amazed.

The girl blinked a pair of green eyes that were more energetic than before, and her nose was raised in a lovely arc, which made people want to reach out and pinch gently. Her lips were slightly thick, but they had a special texture, bright and clean. A healthy blush appeared on her cheeks, which made the two strands of platinum hair hanging from her chest even brighter.

The only thing that destroys this sense of brightness is probably the pair of big, thick black-rimmed glasses on her face.

"Good night, my respected and noble Grand Duchess of Dragon Clouds, the beautiful and elegant Ms. Selma," Thales smiled relaxedly. He raised his right hand to Selma, pressed his left chest lightly, and made a gesture. Elegant, decent, no one can fault the bow, "Lord Nicolai was just joking with me, please don't criticize him too much."

The girl—Selma looked at him quietly, with no emotion in her eyes.

"But I still thank you for your concern, and I will keep this gratitude in the bottom of my heart." The prince pulled his lips to the best arc that Miss Jinx said, and nodded slightly: "I hope you have a good time today, ma'am .”

"And you two—Earl Lisbane and Ms. Jinx." Thales raised his brows, and looked at Lisbane with a serious face and Jinx with a calm face and returned the salute to him.

Finally, Selma frowned slightly, pursed her slightly raised lips—this made her even cuter—stepped forward slowly, and looked straight at Thales.

The girl walked in front of Thales, she pouted, stretched out her hands, and gracefully lifted the hem of her skirt, revealing a pair of small buckskin boots and a pair of beautifully curved calves under the skirt.

Thales straightened his waist, and he couldn't help noticing that the girl's dirty little hands had become white and silky, wrapping around her waist lightly. Under the well-cut dress, she appeared with a slender neck, a straight waist, and a slightly sized breast that was tightly bound in a tight-fitting shirt, exuding a youthful vigor all over her body.

However, just when Thales thought that the Grand Duchess held up her skirt and was about to bow in return...

"Boom!"

Thales screamed in pain, took two steps back, and bumped into the stable behind him.

He bent down in pain, rubbing the leg bone that was kicked.

Behind the girl, Earl Lisbane and Ms. Jinx both frowned, while a pair of maids covered their mouths and exclaimed at the same time. Nicolai scratched his neck and shook his head slightly.

Thelma snorted coldly and took back the kicked boots, shook her hands, and angrily threw off her skirt. Following the playful movements of the Grand Duchess, the jewel headdress on her full forehead shone in the setting sun, and even the sleeves on her sleeves The emblem of the Dragon Spear in the Cloud also seemed to have added a touch of color out of thin air.

Prince Xingchen, who was kicked inexplicably, raised his head with an expression of disbelief.

"Hey," Thales protested dissatisfiedly, feeling the pain in his legs, "Why?"

Thelma walked up to Thales, who was slightly taller than Thales, pouted her mouth, and stared at the guests of the stars with displeasure.

Wyatt and Rolf looked at each other, Qi Qi wisely took a step back, chose to renege on his duties and leave their prince behind.

"From the Kingdom of Stars, respectful, noble, handsome..." The cold-faced girl YouQi bit the accent on the last two words: "Tales 'Prince'! Thales 'His Royal Highness'!"

Thales sighed.

"If you talk to me in this tone again," the Grand Duchess glanced unhappily at the big black horse behind him who was chewing grass and watching the show leisurely, and threatened angrily in her clear and bright voice :

"Then don't live in the yard from now on - come to the stables and sleep with your favorite Jenny!"

Selma snorted softly, she turned around abruptly, stomped her moccasin boots so loudly that it could be heard twenty meters away, and left angrily.

The girl's long hair flicked Thales' cheek, and there was a faint fragrance.

But the unlucky prince didn't have the energy to care about these little beauties at all. He raised his head with an aggrieved face and looked at the Earl of Lisbane with a calm expression.

Ms. Jinx and the two maids hurriedly followed the Grand Duchess, and the former frowned and stared at Thales as if it was his fault.

"Charles, I'm already very tired today," the Grand Duchess's crisp voice sounded, respectful and polite, in stark contrast to her behavior just now: "Let's talk about it tomorrow, and I'll leave the rest to you."

As the regent of Dragon Clouds City, the Earl of Lisbane, who was also in formal attire, sighed and nodded slightly to the girl's back: "Of course, my lady."

The Meteorite shook his head disdainfully, and followed the Grand Duchess.

Thelma's footsteps faded away.

"Today's hearing," Thales straightened up, let out a breath of dissatisfaction, and said to Lisbane, "Who messed with her again?"

"No one," the Lord Regent shook his head without changing his expression, but then he nodded contradictoryly, his expression darkened:

"Everyone."

Thales showed a puzzled expression, and said dissatisfiedly: "Then do I deserve to be that unlucky target?"

The Earl of Charles Lisbane, the regent of Dragon Clouds City who is over sixty years old, probably didn't like Thales very much from the first time he saw him, but this time, the Earl shook his head strangely and apologized to him .

"On behalf of Madam, I apologize for her behavior—the behavior just now was indeed inappropriate, Prince Thales," the Regent of Lisbane said solemnly: "I will advise her when the time is right."

"Trust me, this is not her norm."

Thales, who suffered for no reason, rolled his eyes.

"Then I will take my leave first, Prince Thales." Regent Lisbane looked at the back of the Grand Duchess and said slowly, "Please convey my thanks to Lord Putillai for me."

Thales nodded helplessly.

Accompanied by his attendants, the Lord Regent turned and left.

Thales looked at the back of Lisbane going away, and his heart sank slightly.

nobody?

everyone?

Lisbane's statement... Listen to the political meeting, what happened?

Coupled with Nicolai's warning that "Dragon Clouds City will not be peaceful", and his inexplicable search...

Also, Putilei also rushed to Dragon Clouds City at this time.

Thales, who was thinking about it, raised his head, feeling a little uneasy.

He needs to find Puttilai as soon as possible and listen to the Lord's report.

The big black horse stuck its head out of the fence, and touched the prince's cheek mischievously.

"Sure enough," Thales let go of the complicated thoughts in his heart, put his arms around Jenny's head, and sighed, "It's better for you, Jenny."

At this time, Ada, who had disappeared for a long time, jumped out of nowhere.

Holding two dead rabbits in each hand, she said cheerfully in front of the stunned Wyatt and Rolf: "Oh, little Thales, it's okay, we don't eat that brat's dinner, we can fire ourselves... "

The prince turned to her gravely.

"Ada," Thales changed his face, he put on a vicious expression, and snorted coldly at the elf: "If you fall behind and go hunting again..."

"...Don't live in the courtyard."

"Move here and sleep with Jenny!"

Ada froze in place.

At this moment, the Grand Duchess' dissatisfied shout came again from a distance:

"Thales!"

"What are you still dawdling about!"

"Do you want to have dinner?"

Thales took a deep breath, pulled his face, and pulled it back from "wronged prince" to "happy boy".

supper.

Of course I want to.

But not with some pissed-off lioness cub.

The young prince had no choice but to look up to the sky and sigh, muttering to himself, "How cute when I was young", and shouting listlessly, "Come here, come here".

Thales turned around without hesitation, and strode towards Selma.

Leaving the ignorant Ada behind, he looked at Wyatt and Rolf in blank dismay.

Jenny snorted in the stable, lowered her head and continued to enjoy her feast.

"What happened to the two little kids?" Ada under the cloak looked at Jenny and shook the rabbit in her hand.

"You understand," Wyatt sighed, touching his nose:

"It's nice to be young."

In the distance, the Earl of Lisbane stopped. He turned his head slowly and glanced in the direction of the stables.

Yes, you were targeted by the Grand Duchess to vent your anger, Prince Thales.

However.

She will only use you as a "target".

This is where the problem lies.

With deep eyes, Regent Lisbane turned and left.
