Chapter 1130 52. Prince Aidan’s Gift
Prince Aidan was still taken away.
Is there a feud between the Elven Court and the Kingdom of Paem? Annan didn't know, but the Elf Court couldn't torture to extract a confession...
When the Elf Guard was leaving, Annan followed him: "Do you know what the explosion over there is about?"
The tall elf guard remained silent.
"It seems you know what's going on over there?"
The elf guard turned to Annan who was coming up to him: "I won't tell you."
"Why? Just because I just said Stop you?"
Annan was very persistent: "It's very simple. There are three reasons why I stopped you from arresting him. First, I am your quasi-ally and I am qualified to stop you when you make wrong moves. Second, Prince Aidan is not an ordinary person. He is the prince of the Kingdom of Paem and the son of the Thirteenth Supreme King. It is a serious diplomatic incident for you to capture him. Third, he is with me most of the time. There was also an alibi at the time of the incident."
"He was human."
"Is this the reason? You doubting him because he is a human is as rude as thinking that I am promiscuous because I am a warlock!"
"You humans are the original sin." The elf guard said in a cold tone.
"Well, I won't argue with you about this, but you should tell me what happened. Maybe I can be of some help."
The Elf Guard has never seen anything like this. The clinging guy, his attitude softened a little, and he spoke angrily about the explosion just now.
"...If Lord Jade hadn't taken action, at least one elder and hundreds of elves would have been killed or injured in that explosion."
"You mean the murderer left a death notice to provoke him?" Annan thought thoughtfully.
“Do you know the murderer?”
“I don’t know, but maybe you can investigate something if you take me to the scene.”
Faced with Annan’s ever-expanding measures, Elf The guard told him not to even think about it.
"Then you have to tell me more information, right?"
After a slight hesitation, the elf guard finally revealed the news that "Shadow" had conducted a secret investigation before, which resulted in the loss of more than a dozen warriors, and even the disappearance of the archmage who was called for help.
Even in the Elf King’s Court, the Archmage is not like a potato in the ground that can grow up one after another.
"It seems that the enemy is very strong...so can we screen out the envoys who are no more powerful than the master?" Annan asked.
“It’s being done.”
“Then why did you capture Prince Aidan?”
"He went out with you."
I didn't expect that Prince Aidan was being targeted and he had something to do with it...
"I will also keep an eye on it for you." Annan said .
"Thank you..."
The words of gratitude blurted out, but were held back by the elf guard, and he left with the remaining arrogance.
Annan looked at the direction where the mushroom cloud had risen for a while, then turned and returned to the hut.
As soon as he walked in, he remembered that this was Prince Aidan's cabin. Just take a quick glance and go out.
At this moment, a broken scepter handle suddenly shot out a shadow. He looked at Annan and frowned: "Who are you?"
Annan turned around and saw the projected image of the blond man, and made a slight guess: "I am Aidan's friend, he... went to talk to the elf We talked about some things and I helped him look after his house."
The man who looked a bit like Prince Aidan frowned and gave a gentle salute: "Thank you for taking care of my incompetent brother."
< br>
"You're too polite. We are helping each other." Annan responded in kind.
"Please tell him when he comes back to contact the kingdom."
"I will."
The image of the blond man disappeared. Annan curiously looked at the truncated scepter handle, guessing that it was a precious treasure... but Prince Aidan threw it here. Annan arranged for a team of guardian golems to help Prince Aidan look after his house, and began to parade around the wooden house complex with the golems.
The elves took Prince Aidan away for a long time before releasing him back.
Annan rushed to the wooden house immediately - Prince Aidan was blocked from the door by the guardian.
The golem does not know who Prince Aidan is, and will only obey Annan's orders and prohibit everyone from approaching.
Asking the guardians to step aside, Annan greeted him: "Is everything okay?"
"Well, thank you for helping me look after my house."
"Nothing... By the way, your brother came here not long after you left." Annan pointed to the handle of the scepter on the table.
"Have you met him?"
"Well, your brother has a much better attitude than those elves."
After all, Annan has not seen much in the royal court these days. Don't look bad.
Prince Aidan smiled and activated the scepter handle in front of Annan.
Soon, the image of Brother Aidan appeared in front of the truncated scepter handle. It seemed that because of the angle, he didn't see Annan, and asked Prince Aidan: "What did you talk to the elves about?"
"Nothing. The elves were attacked, and they suspected it was related to me, so they took me there Investigate."
Aidan's brother looked angry: "You acted without permission again!"
"I didn't."
"You caused the kingdom to be lost? Face, and bought a bunch of scrap metal that I didn’t have! ”
Annan was puzzled for a while. He had a friendly attitude just now, so why did he treat Aidan like a villain?
"Annan is an ally of the elves, shouldn't we maintain feelings with him?"
The image said coldly: "Aidan, you know the rules of the kingdom, this is against the rules..."< br>
Prince Aidan lowered his eyes: "It's another rule..."
"What did you say!"
"I said..."
"The general will not accept military orders abroad." Annan, who had been watching for a long time, suddenly said: "The meaning of this sentence is that the general needs to adapt to changes on the front line and cannot rigidly follow the kingdom's rules. "
Aidan's brother looked at him in shock. Annan thought he would confront her, but unexpectedly he paused for a few seconds and changed his tone to a gentler tone: "I'm sorry for making you behave like a brother."
Ready to help Prince Aidan stand out Annan lost his temper instantly. What's going on with Paem's royal family...is it in trouble? Or too educated?
Because there was an outsider like Annan, Aidan's brother stopped admonishing him and closed the communication.
"You helped me again." Prince Aidan said with a wry smile.
"Who told him to say that my things are scrap metal?" Annan shrugged, "But why is his attitude so...divisive?"
Annan doesn't think it's because of himself. Because of identity. If the identity of a quasi-ally is so useful, the envoys of the wooden house community should be running frantically towards their residences now.
“Because of the ‘rules’, twisted rules.”
Annan remembered what Prince Aidan said, the number of rules in the Kingdom of Paem was scary... He thought it was just like this among the people at most, not among the people. Do you think that even the royal family is no exception?
"It's so weird... You must not become like this." Fortunately, Prince Aidan did not have this problem.
"Don't worry, I will never become like that..."
Prince Aidan held the handle of the scepter.
"What is it? Can it be mass-produced?" Annan asked casually.
“This is a broken artifact.”
Prince Aidan glanced at the scepter handle: "After the celebration is over, I will give you a gift..."
