Game of Thrones: From Lord Elden to Young Wolf - Chapter 202
c200 Prince and Witch
The next day, Robb went to work at the church of the Church of the Night as usual.
After these days of rest, Xio and Fors became famous non-staff members of the Church of the Night, because they jointly arrested Mr. A of the Aurora Society and his men, which made them famous.
So, they were lucky to be blessed by the church.
Otherwise, they might be retaliated by the Aurora Society and die tragically on the spot at any time.
Even in the past two days, they felt that someone was following them and almost scared them out of their wits.
Fortunately, Fors’s teacher, the descendant of the Abraham family, knew that Fors would be hunted down because of fighting against the Aurora Society, so he gave Fors a free potion of Sequence 8 ‘Master of Magic’ to help Fors improve his combat effectiveness.
Fors, who has mastered the method of acting, estimates that she will be able to completely digest the potion in a month, but even if she is Sequence 7, she is still a little worried about the hunt of the Aurora Society.
At this time in the Church of the Night, Robb was bored in the office listening to Hugh and Fors’ complaints and worries.
Fors now has a deep understanding of Robb. She knows that Robb doesn’t care about these things, so she keeps talking: “I feel that we will be followed when we go out now. I returned to our apartment before and found that I didn’t know how many people visited us. I was almost scared to tears at that time.”
“What are you afraid of? This is the effect we want. When Mr. X of the Aurora Society arrives in Backlund, he will definitely find out that you betrayed Mr. A. When he finds you, it will be a revenge. I will come down from the sky and help you get revenge?”
Fors cried: “What if we didn’t hold on? What if I get killed by then? ”
“Oh, no. I’m very fast, and Hugh will soon be a Sequence 7 warrior, so he shouldn’t be completely defenseless. At most, I’ll lend you a magical item when the traveler arrives in Backlund.”
The magical item Robb was talking about was Mr. A’s Beyonder characteristic. If he found a craftsman from the Church of Steam and made a batch of Beyonders, he could make a Beyonder that was as hungry as a crawling beast. If he found a few criminal Beyonders to herd, the Low Sequence could immediately turn over and become the master, becoming one of the best Low Sequence warriors.
Fors and Hugh’s eyes lit up: “Really?”
Although Robb used them as bait, Fors and Hugh were willing to take such risks, and the reason was very simple: the reward was too generous.
Fors didn’t need to say much. After assassinating Mr. X, Robb would not share the reward given by the Abraham family. Almost all of it was enjoyed by Fors alone.
Hugh’s reward was Robb’s extraordinarily powerful Arbiter Path Extraordinary Characteristics. Robb had extraordinarily powerful Judges until Sequence 6. Hugh was ready to work for Robb wholeheartedly.
——
“The Augustus family has mastered the Arbiter Path…”
Robb’s main goal now was to get promoted. So, excluding the mysterious family that wanted to contact him but was hiding its head and tail, contacting the Augustus family was the top priority.
But how to contact the Augustus family?
After thinking about it, Robb felt that it would be most appropriate for Duke Negan to contact him, and he could just find a prince from the Augustus family to meet.
“In theory, high-sequence people should all live long, but looking at history books, these kings all died and abdicated normally, which means that in order to maintain the surface of normality, the king will pass the throne to his son when he reaches a certain age.
Then this Augustus family should be like the Dali Duan family, with martial arts masters who shave their heads and become monks everywhere. In this case, if I go directly to ask for magic potions, I may not get any benefits.
Then I can only establish a good relationship with them. If it doesn’t work, I will fight again. Duke Negan is their important minister, and the relationship should be very good.”
It’s really strange. The Storm Church and the Night Church are actively contacting me, and the Steam Church is also ready to move, but only this royal family has no movement.
Could it be that the strength of this royal family is not as good as that of the church?
Thinking this way, Robb began to pass on the message to his believers, and then wrote a letter to Duke Negan, asking if there are any princes or princesses who want to hold a banquet recently.
After receiving Robb’s order, Viscount Greteling immediately mobilized his circle of nobles to contact Audrey and prepare to find a suitable banquet.
In the afternoon, Duke Negan quickly replied to Robb. His power was much stronger than that of Viscount Greteling and Audrey, and he finalized a banquet for Robb to be hosted by a prince.
“Edsac Augustus is said to be the third son of King George III. He should have no hope of inheriting the throne, but he still got the title of earl and his assets are still very sufficient.”
After reading the information of this prince, Robb was still a little disappointed. Generally speaking, a prince who had no chance to inherit the throne rarely had the possibility of obtaining very confidential information, otherwise it would easily cause a palace disaster.
But it was better to have it than not, and being able to contact people from the Augustus family was also a good start.
That night, Robb dressed up well, dressed like a gentleman, and took a carriage to the prince’s suburban estate, ready to meet the prince.
This manor is different from the manor in Queens. Because it is located in the suburbs, it covers a very large area. There is a huge pasture inside the manor. It takes more than ten minutes to walk from the gate to the manor house, so after entering the gate Gotta keep riding.
This is the style that His Highness the Prince should have.
The banquet this time was still dance-themed, but this time without Miss Audrey’s invitation, Robb didn’t really care about the opening dance. He went directly to the second floor and watched the people below dancing.
Robb was bored: “The life of these nobles is not easy. They have to dance almost every day. Their feet must be very smelly…”
Around Robb, there were still many nobles who did not go out to dance, but were chatting on the side. Because it was a banquet personally invited by the prince, the average status of the people here was higher, and the topics they talked about were confidential topics that were difficult to hear outside. .
“The relationship between us and the Fusac Empire is getting more and more tense. We might start a war soon.”
“I remember that the relationship between our two countries was not very bad before. What is going on?”
“Hey, how long ago was that? The Church of the Night here and the Church of the God of War over there have been refusing to deal with each other. They should have started fighting a long time ago.”
The nobles were somewhat silent when it came to the church. Judging from the current situation, in almost all countries in the world, the power of the church overwhelms the kingdom. Although the nobles also believe in the gods of the church on the surface, where are their butts sitting? Only they know it in their own hearts.
“It’s a good thing to start a fight. The kingdom has been silent for too long. Other countries don’t know who is the king of the northern continent.”
“Oh, it’s a pity that Duke Negan is not very willing. He is the leader of the Conservative Party and a member of the military. He has no backbone at all. It is really infuriating!”
“After all, he is a general with high honors. What good will a fight do to him? Moreover, those conservatives are a bunch of trash who only know how to eat and wait to die. How can they think of sacrificing for the country?”
After listening for a while, Robb understood that Loen at this time should be divided into several factions, and the upper-class nobles all had their own needs.
On the side of Prince Augustus, the invitations were all more radical nobles, and they seemed to be very dissatisfied with the Conservative Party. In other words, the royal family and some other nobles wanted to go to war with other empires.
As for the church, the Church of the Night seems to have a grudge against the Church of God of War, and should be a force that supports or even acquiesces in the war with the Feysac Empire.
Then the forces that oppose or obstruct are the Church of Storms and the Conservative Party led by Duke Negan. From this point of view, the person who assassinated Duke Negan is not necessarily an external force. Those radical parties want to kill the leader of the Conservative Party to achieve their goals. It is not impossible to achieve your own goals.
After the dance went on for a while, Robb saw that Prince Edsac seemed to relax a little and there were no more people around, so he wanted to go up and have a brief chat with him.
Just as he was about to step forward, Robb saw a man who looked like a butler hurriedly walked up to the prince and whispered a few words. He didn’t know what he said. The prince’s expression also changed instantly.
Then the two of them hurriedly left the venue and walked towards the back.
Robb thought for a while and felt that this should be a very good opportunity, because it seemed that the prince had encountered something important. If he could hear something about it, he would be able to threaten the prince severely. Already?
Robb is not a pedantic person in the first place. As long as he can achieve his own goal, he will not accept even using some bad means.
In a corner where no one was paying attention, a little starlight appeared above Robb’s head, shining on Robb’s body, directly hiding Robb’s figure, and a transparent luster appeared on his feet, hiding all of Robb’s voice. got up.
At this time, Robb was silent. Even if he was standing next to him, no one could detect Robb’s existence.
Robb, who had a very strong figure, followed the two of them quietly, and soon arrived at a secret place in the manor.
Although this place is secretive, the lighting and layout are very good, the decoration is very luxurious, and there is a faint smell of perfume. You can tell at a glance that it is a woman’s room.
“I seem to have smelled the smell of this room before…”
Witch?
Soon, Robb thought about where he had smelled this disgusting fragrance, the two witches he had met at sea two days ago.
However, the smell of this witch’s room is still relatively weak, and her strength should not be very strong.
“Looking at this posture, it seems that this prince has raised a witch at home? This melon is too big, and the witch is basically a man in the early stage, and then…”
Robb really didn’t expect that after he arrived in this world, the melons he ate would be one after another, each one more bizarre than the last.
But when I think about my brother-in-law, the Knight of Flowers, and the former King Renly, I feel that this matter is not difficult to accept. I have a lot of opinions on this matter, and I still have a lot of resistance to these things.
At this time, the prince’s face turned pale and he was very angry: “What’s going on? Why is he missing?”
The butler was trembling: “I have already sent someone to look for her. Don’t worry, Your Highness, we will definitely be able to bring the young lady back before tonight.”
“Must bring it back!”
Prince Edessak’s face was very ugly, possessiveness had filled his whole heart, his mind was full of his love, and he felt sad for losing the most precious thing.
Robb stood beside Prince Edessak, thinking: The witch sect seemed to be a cult, and this prince was raising witches here, which should have violated the rules of the major churches, which was also a handle.
If I could help Prince Edessak find the witch, I would be able to completely subdue this prince by using both kindness and force.
But why did this prince meet a witch? This was really a bit strange.
Robb returned to the ball at the manor and waited patiently for a while. Soon, Prince Edessak came back. His face was full of anxiety, but as the host of this ball, he had to come out to entertain the guests.
Robb saw the right moment, walked forward, and greeted Prince Edessak with a smile: “Hi, Your Highness.”
Prince Edessak had never seen Robb before, and was extremely annoyed at the moment. He didn’t want to pay any attention to him. He just thought he was just some small character who wanted to get close to him, so he just nodded and prepared to arrange the process of ending the ball early.
Robb didn’t get angry either: “Prince Edessak, don’t you want to find the charming person you hid?”
!
Prince Edessak’s face changed instantly, and he looked at Robb in disbelief, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, and was extremely shocked.
Surprise, fear, terror, murderous intent…
All kinds of emotions surged back and forth in Prince Edessak’s heart, and he was shocked and speechless for a while.
“You… you are… talking nonsense! I…”
Looking at Prince Edessak’s flustered appearance, Robb smiled faintly: “If you still want to find your beauty, then you should invite me to sit in the study.”
Prince Edessak took a deep breath for a long time before he calmed down a little, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
But soon, Prince Edessak realized that he had to invite this young man to sit in the study. Even if he couldn’t help him find a female companion, he had to control this person and keep the danger and secrets within his control.
“Okay… okay, don’t know your name yet?”
“Just call me Mr. Robb Stark.”
