"Climb the Loyal Dog, Renner, and Blue Roses"
Gudongdong--
The luxurious carriage drove on the main road of Royal Capital, the wheels rolling and the stone road making slight vibrations.
After staying away from the unpaved area where "Free Will" was stationed, we came to the main road.
The tense nerves of the young man driving the carriage relaxed slightly.
This is a medium-sized carriage pulled by two strong horses. It is unusually spacious for four people, which also means that such a carriage is not easy to drive.
The young man held the horse rope tightly and controlled the speed and direction of the two horses. He could feel that the two horses were exceptionally easy to control today.
Is it because of that monster?
The young man looked carefully out of the corner of his eye and followed closely on the left side of the carriage, Barghest, who was more than two meters tall. The strong horse seemed petite in front of Barghest of this size.
The young man has neat short blond hair, curved three-white eyes, and thick eyebrows. Although he looks about the same age as Enri, he has a sense of composure that far exceeds that age group.
Inside the carriage.
Verdant Leaf Witch and Enri were sitting on both sides. One was expressionless and showed no emotion, while the other was a little excited and restless.
"Climb."
Tang Zheng thought that the person pulling the carriage was Loyal Dog, and an interesting look flashed in his eyes.
Climb's luxurious carriage was sent by Golden Princess. It is a complicated matter for outsiders to enter the palace normally.
Moreover, the terrain in the palace is complex, and without familiar people to guide you, it is easy to get lost and cause unnecessary trouble. After all, this is just a personal invitation from Golden Princess.
"Climb was saved by Golden Princess so early." This thought flashed through Tang Zheng.
He only remembered that because there was no such heterogeneous idea of "equal people", Golden Princess suffered from mental problems, then developed anorexia, and even slowly died.
If I hadn't accidentally picked up Loyal Dog and felt soothed and satisfied, I would have probably starved myself to death.
Of course, this situation is probably unlikely to occur.
Royal Family will not let Golden Princess starve himself to death.
"The two of them are not very old at the moment. According to time calculation, they should both be only 12 years old. Like Enri, Climb should be a little younger."
"No, it's three years before New Calendar, so he should be 13 years old. If New World doesn't have a distinction between one year old and false age."
Tang Zheng tapped his fingers lightly on his knees.
He may not look old, but his appearance is nothing like what he should look like at his age. People of New World are indeed more mature in appearance.
The luxury carriage soon drove into Royal City.
Since I had already greeted him, I didn't encounter any obstruction, but when I got close to the inside of Royal City, I was stopped.
The problem lies with Barghest, but in the end, with the proof of the letter from Golden Princess, the group of people passed the test completely.
Palace corridor.
Climb straightened his back and led the way from the front with a serious face. The lining of the chain mail on his body rubbed against each other, making a soft sound of metal collision.
"I'm sorry to trouble you just now because of Blackie's matter." Tang Zheng followed the other party leisurely and said with a smile.
When they were intercepted just now, Climb argued for them, but the result was not as effective as Golden Princess's handwritten letter.
Climb's steps slowed down briefly and his voice was stiff. "I just followed Her Highness the Princess's instructions and brought you to Her Highness the Princess. This is what I should do!"
"Okay." Tang Zheng shrugged his shoulders.
The Climb in front of me was still too young. Even if I made my expression and tone formulaic, I still couldn't hide my dissatisfaction with them.
As for why?
It's not hard to guess.
Tang Zheng's posture was relaxed and he didn't care. He glanced around, admiring Royal Capital's beautiful environment.
Climb walked forward with his head down.
He really didn't like the few people behind him. They didn't even wear formal clothes when meeting the princess. However, this was a very rude behavior, and the large monster Barghest was also brought into the palace.
Climb thinks this is a slight against Princess Renner.
However, "Free Will" is the owner's guest.
Climb feels that if it were Miss Lainas, she would probably prohibit such behavior without hesitation, but...
He was not qualified to make decisions for his master at all, and he also had no strength. That Barghest monster was something he could not stop even at the risk of his life.
If you express your inner thoughts without permission.
Not only may it cause trouble to the owner, but it may also cause contempt from the other party.
No matter what happens, the master's face cannot be tarnished.
Climb's back straightened again, and even the steps he took had a slight change, and he suddenly walked out with a unique momentum.
In this strange atmosphere.
Everyone came to the palace where Princess Renner lived.
The elite soldiers and Knight who were originally guarding both sides of the corridor gradually disappeared, and the number of maids increased significantly.
Faced with the arrival of Tang Zheng and his party.
These maids all showed great Royal Family etiquette, and all of them were smiling. Even if Terror monsters like Barghest passed by, their bodies would only tremble slightly, but the expressions on their faces would not change.
Enri was already dazzled by the sight, and subconsciously greeted the friendly smiles of these maids in a panic.
If this were done elsewhere, it would definitely be a joke.
Climb thought in his heart, but no one laughed at the scene. He glanced at the maids with serious eyes, and couldn't help but snort in his heart.
When the maids saw him, they would always have a straight face or even be hostile.
Climb naturally knows the reason. Because of his relationship with the princess, his status in the palace is actually somewhat special.
These maids were different from him. They were all nobles. The thought of groveling to him, a man who was even lower than a commoner, and not showing anger on their faces was considered well-educated.
He knew these maids very well, and he could naturally tell that the smiles on these maids' faces were not formulaic, but came from the heart.
It was for the group of people named "Free Will"... to be precise, it should be for the team leader named Tang.
Whether it is the expensive "Regeneration Potion" that has excellent healing effects and is snapped up by major nobles, or it is encountering various attacks and easily solving a large number of evil adventurers and mercenaries.
The popularity among the public is very high.
The other person seems to be of commoner origin, at least according to the rumors he heard, he does not have a noble background. In short, he is a quite remarkable person.
This point.
Climb Even though because of the dress and other reasons, I have a lot of affection for "Free Will", I have to admit it.
Without the status of a noble, you can still be respected by relying on your own strength and fame, just like Mr. Gazef.
Climb Wants to be such a person from the bottom of his heart.
Thinking room.
Everyone has arrived at the entrance of the hall.
Two large doors with silver metallic luster were closed thickly. In addition to the exquisite patterns, the most eye-catching thing was a huge tapestry hanging on the door frame.
It has the emblem of the Royal Family embroidered on it, and the bottom of Black. White resembles a cow pattern, which is also the national flag of Li Yestije Kingdom.
Dang! Dang!
Climb gently knocked on the door.
"Come in." A soft sound, like the sound of rain and dew falling in the morning, came from the hall.
Climb then gently pushed the door open and entered.
Tang Zheng's usual calmness suddenly showed a rare change.
What he has to deal with next is not only Princess Renner, but also the group of "Blue Roses". It may not be dangerous, but it is a scene worth taking seriously.
That's fine!
It always feels like a challenging thing.
There was a "click" sound.
A luxurious but not ostentatious hall comes into view. The floor is paved with pure white stone slabs, and only the central area is covered with thick and exquisite carpets.
A crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling, and the surrounding walls are covered with a layer of satin wallpaper priced in gold coins.
Several sofas were simply placed on the carpet, with a somewhat compact tea table in the center.
The first thing that caught the eye were the figures of three blond ladies. Two were sitting on the sofa in gorgeous dresses, complementing each other, and one was standing behind the sofa, wearing simple soft armor.
Climb just glanced at it and quickly lowered his head, pushed the door completely open, and then took the initiative to stand to one side to make room for the group of "Free Will".
The two women, who were sitting on the sofa and seemed to be chatting, raised their heads at the same time.
Princess Renner's blond hair was full of luster, a bright yellow gemstone hung in front of her forehead, her smile was full of softness, and her deep blue pupils looked over with curiosity.
Lakyus also has blond hair, but it is smoother than Princess Renner's hair, which is wavy and curled. The color of her pupils is emerald green. She looked at Tang Zheng and the group of people with eyes filled with scrutiny.
The moment they both turned back at the same time, the brightness of the entire room seemed to dim.
Even though he had already expected it, Tang Zheng couldn't help but be startled when he saw the appearance of the two of them.
The pure white Priest robe is shaking.
Tang Zheng walked forward with a calm expression, his steps were still calm, and the corner of his eye glanced to the side, and the other person "Blue Roses" was sitting on the sofa near Lakyus.
"Ouch."
Barghest shook his neck and followed closely beside Tang Zheng. With Jet Black's hair and huge body, his steps did not make any big noise. Instead, he felt like Lightness.
Only the Bone Chains wrapped around the body was swimming around the body like a snake, exuding a terrifying aura like a jungle beast.
Such a ferocious monster did not change the expressions of everyone in the room. Even Princess Lana simply raised her hand to cover her pink lips.
Lakyus stood up first, wearing a complicated dress, but his movements were not affected at all, a flash of surprise flashed in his emerald green pupils.
She heard Gagaran mention that the leader of "Free Will" was very young, but she didn't expect that he looked about the same age as her.
Black hair and black eyes, it doesn't look like they were dyed.
He is indeed a bit handsome and seems to be a gentle person.
Lakyus thought in his mind, and opened his mouth to introduce. There was neither the arrogance of aristocrats nor the gentleness of normal women. Instead, his tone was brisk: ""Blue Roses" Captain, Lakyus."
These words rang out in the hall. In a sense, they also set a tone for inviting Tang Zheng and others to come, not as nobles, but as adventurers.
Princess Renner did not speak further, her white and tender palms still covering her lips, as if she was still surprised by Barghest, and her other hand was placed on the long skirt between her legs.
""Free Will"Captain, Tang."
Tang Zheng heard the other party's introduction, and naturally introduced himself in the same way, and then showed a gentle smile on his face:
"I have always heard that the princess's beauty is like the "brilliance of gems" and that Captain Lakyus's beauty is like the "light of life". Now that I have actually seen it, I understand that the rumors are not exaggerated."
Speaking of which.
Tang Zheng bowed slightly to Princess Renner: "Your Highness, may your face be as bright as the morning star."
As soon as these words came out.
Lakyus's eyebrows twitched.
Standing at the gate, Climb's expression became even stiffer.
This is not etiquette at all, nor does it have the implicitness of a nobleman. The words are too straightforward.
However.
For adventurers, this is not a big problem. The adventurers and countries in the Adventurer's Guild belong to different countries.
Climb took a deep breath.
Not every adventurer has this qualification. Ordinary adventurers are best to abide by etiquette honestly, unless they are powerful adventurers like the one in front of them, who can ignore some rules.
"Morning Star, thank you."
Princess Renner didn't seem to care, but looked happy. She glanced at Barghest carefully, then stood up, holding the skirts on both sides with both hands.
At this moment, a voice also sounded from the side.
"Oh, I have long heard that Mr. Tang is accompanied by a powerful monster. Judging from the size, it should be far larger than the ordinary Barghest."
"You are well trained, is this Upper Species Greater Barghest from Barghest?" Gagaran's rough and bold voice came.
"Sure enough, all men are the same." Tia said calmly.
"There are only two men present. Tsk, I'm curious. Do you two think our team leader is beautiful, or do you think your Royal Highness the Princess is beautiful?"
Tina deliberately lengthened the tone and sounded a sinister sound.
The room fell silent again.
"Tina!" Lakyus glared at Tina, but his emerald green pupils looked at Tang Zheng.
Climb was a little stunned. Naturally, there was only one answer in his mind, but judging from the situation on the field, no one seemed to care about his answer.
Is it because you already know his answer?
Facing the gazes one after another.
Tang Zheng just shook his head helplessly, then raised his head and looked at Lainas who was standing behind Princess Renner: "Long time no see, Miss Lainas."
Huh?
Lainas was shocked. She originally thought that the master would pretend that he didn't know her, but she didn't expect that he would suddenly speak like this.
But after being stunned for a short time, he quickly suppressed his inner emotions.
"Long time no see, Mr. Tang." Lainas is very smart and immediately realized that Tang Zheng might have other ideas.
Everyone in the room was a little surprised.
Only Princess Renner's eyes flashed, and her fingers pinched the hem of the skirt a little harder.
This feeling is like a main course placed on the table and suddenly opened by someone.
