Chapter 490 Which flower do you like best
"Do you like flowers, Sir Ilea?" the man in front of the flower stand asked.
"Well, it's okay."
"What is your favorite flower?"
“The best chicken popcorn.”
"Well, what kind of flower is that?" The man frowned and continued, "I have been collecting all kinds of flowers over the years, but I have never heard of the name of this flower."
"The Hot Chicken Popsicles were brought by Merlin from the Kingdom of God. They don't exist on the Bratis continent, but they are really delicious." Miss Rabbit said sincerely.
At the same time, he recalled the feeling when he ate the hot chicken popcorn for the first time, and he couldn't help but swallow again.
"The prophet Merlin who eats flowers is an elegant man."
Claudio finally turned around, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes when he saw Ilea for the first time, but it was only for a short moment, and he soon returned to normal, "You know who I am."
"Geof told me that you are the second prince Claudio, but..." The female lord hesitated to speak.
"Aren't my hair and ears enough to prove my identity?" Claudio asked calmly without being angry.
"Geoff also has red hair."
"Don't compare me with that kind of person. The blood of the Vespasian family in him is already very thin." The second prince said, "If it weren't for his sister, he would have been punished for what he had done before. Kicked out of the capital.”
"Ha, so you know what he is like."
"If I only find good people to help me with things, there will soon be no one around me." Claudio said, "This is the royal capital, and everyone has his secrets."
Miss Rabbit shrugged, "Well, I won't be here long anyway, so I won't explore other people's secrets."
"A wise move." Claudio paused and then said, "If you still have doubts about my identity, you can wait until tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?"
"Yes, when the tournament begins, you will see me in the center of the stands, right behind His Majesty the Emperor and diagonally behind you."
"Wait, I'm in the stands too?"
"Well, you will sit next to the Queen. My father... really appreciates you."
"So I don't have to participate in the martial arts tournament?" the female lord said excitedly.
Claudio's expression was a little strange, "Why, don't you know? As a rule, noble contestants do not compete on the first day. In fact, the first day is mainly a melee. The participants are civilians and slaves. They Groups of twenty or thirty people fight each other, and the top three in each group can advance to the next round
"Otherwise, there will be too many people signing up, and we won't know how long it will take for one-on-one meetings." Claudio explained patiently.
"Ah, is that so?" Miss Rabbit was overjoyed.
"Sir Ilea, you seem to be not very interested in the martial arts competition." Claudio looked at the words and saw the abnormality of the female lord.
"I..." Ilea opened her mouth, and finally decided to ask Claudio why he wanted her.
The second prince stopped beating around the bush and asked, "How much do you know about the Bear of the Earth?"
"I've never heard of this name. What does he do?"
"The Bear of the Earth is a contestant in this tournament. If nothing else happens, you will be able to see him tomorrow."
"Well, is there anything special about him?"
"The Earth Bear was born into the Boleslaw family. He was originally a noble, but later he left the family because of some things."
"Wait a minute, I know that family. Steve, the branch leader of the sixth branch of the First Knights of the Empire, is from here. We met outside Lionheart Castle not long ago." The female lord said, "They The family crest looks like a brown bear.”
"Well, although the Boleslaw family does not belong to the twelve major nobles, it is not weak in strength. Every generation in the family has people serving in the Royal Knights, and it is also one of the most loyal families to the royal family."
"There are many people in the Boleslaw family who are impatient and have bad tempers, but throughout their family history, no one has such a bad temper as the Earth Bear. He is ruthless, murderous, and known for his... He enjoys torturing his opponents without any trace of chivalry.
"I had a friend who died in his hands. The two of them had a duel. The Earth Bear smashed his hands and feet, cut open his stomach with a dagger, pulled out his intestines, and hung him on a tree. After that, I peed in the poor man’s stomach and watched him struggle on the ground for a long time, but he was reluctant to end his pain.”
"Wow, this is too much..." Ilea felt horrified when she heard this, and felt her stomach churn.
"I think so too." Claudio clenched his fists, his fair skin turning slightly red with anger, "It's a pity that because it was a duel with a notary present, I couldn't pursue the crimes committed by the Earth Bear, at least openly. It doesn't work.
"Later on, that guy left the royal capital and disappeared. I sent people to trace his traces, but to no avail. I thought he was dead for a while. However, five years later, he came back and transformed into a living being. Followers of the goddess and priests of Cornelia."
"Can you understand how angry I am? The enemy who killed my best friend is right in front of me, but because of my father's fanatical belief in the goddess of life, I have been unable to take revenge until I heard that the Earth Bear participated in this attack. Tournament.”
"You want to use this tournament to kill the Earth Bear?" The female lord raised her eyebrows.
"Yes, neither my father nor the Cornelia priests have anything to say."
After Claudio finished speaking, he broke off a purple jasmine and handed it to the girl aside, while saying with a serious expression.
"Sir Ilea, are you willing to get rid of this enemy for me? In return, no matter what you ask for, I will try my best to satisfy you."
Miss Rabbit did not take the flower, but just smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid you can't meet my request. I originally pointed you to help me... Forget it, I am also deeply sorry for what happened to your friend, but I can't Help you get revenge.”
"Why?" Claudio was puzzled, "You and that Merlin are both Saturday believers. I heard that your relationship with the Life Church is not very harmonious. Even if you don't consider my request, just from your own perspective. , getting rid of the Earth Bear is also profitable, it is equivalent to losing an arm to Cornelia.”
"It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I'm in a lot of trouble now, and I really can't help you. By the way, why would you want to come to me for help? This is the first time we've met."
"Because the Earth Bear is very strong, and may even be the strongest among all the contestants. Apart from you, I can't think of anyone else who can kill him." (End of Chapter)
