Chapter 146 Banquet
This time it’s right.
Latan stared at his sister and laughed. "It's enough for you to know. Godwin and I still have something to discuss. Mainly, we want to discuss why you predicted the Star Shattering War so accurately."
Facing that burning, sincere gaze, Roland knew that he couldn't get away with just any excuse.
Lani did not pursue the source of his information because she trusted Roland. During this year or so, he and Lani were not very close, but it could be said that Lani had completely started to rely on him and would occasionally call him brother.
Come to think of it, it seemed like she hadn't called out for a long time.
Roland's eyes fell on Lani's profile. She was delicate and pretty, but she just wouldn't call him brother.
Latan didn't rush him, and waited until the blond young man's eyes returned to him again.
"Can I not tell you? Well, even though it's a bit ridiculous, I actually have the ability to predict the future. Would you believe me?"
"..." Before Latan could say anything, Lani frowned slightly and pulled his sleeve.
"How is that possible? Those things can't be explained by foreknowledge."
"Yeah, that's impossible, I was just making it up." Roland's smile was as bright as spring breeze, with a hint of helplessness mixed in with his cheerfulness.
He went on to say, "Didn't I tell you a long time ago? There's a guy called Miyazaki Yingxiong who's been telling me this."
"......"
Latan pursed his lips and didn't say anything for a long time, obviously not believing it at all.
The atmosphere was a little depressing.
Everyone has their own secrets. If he doesn't want to tell them, then that's fine, but he is really curious, otherwise he wouldn't have come here.
In the end, he could only laugh out loud, change the subject and ask.
"I met Michaela on the road, and he was the one who told me that I was appointed general.
I want to discuss something with you. My city is south of Galid, right? Do you have any suggestions?"
"Um......."
Roland thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be a big deal, anyway..."
He hesitated and glanced at Marennia. The future Valkyrie would never lose control again. Gelide was just an ordinary piece of land.
Speaking of which, why are the corrupt family members so quiet? They always like to stir up trouble.
Probably because the Goddess of Corruption has been unblocked, they don’t care who the Goddess of Corruption is.
He continued, "The southernmost part of Galid should be easy to defend. There are not many enemies. It's like you are ruling the whole of Galid. You'd better find some civil servants."
"Hiss, you're right. I need to find some civil servants. I'm good at fighting magic, but governance isn't really something I'm good at. I'm not that good at it."
Latan stroked his beard, his eyes solemn, "If I were to return to the office like this, there would probably be chaos for a while."
"Where did you meet Michaela?" Roland just remembered that he had a younger brother. In fact, Torina could communicate with him in dreams, but he had never paid attention to it. It was only when Latan mentioned it that he remembered to ask.
When General Shatterstar mentioned Mikaela, there was a hint of respect in his eyes and his voice was full of energy.
“I heard him say that it was you who asked him to investigate the villages. It is a blessing that the Golden Tree has two of you.
You can get him to do it, and Michaela can execute it and do it well.
You may not know that he made a notebook in which he recorded the pros and cons of each village, the crops they produced, and any difficulties they encountered.”
"Really? Well done."
A smile appeared on Roland's lips. He had always been strict with Michaela, which was completely different from Torina and Malenia.
In his eyes, Michaela should be better and more perfect.
In fact, he did a really good job.
Latan did not hesitate to give Michaela's positive evaluation and continued.
“He is very smart, his only weakness is that he is too weak, can he beat the Knights now?
I think it's likely that they can't win. Just relying on those few prayers, they can probably protect themselves from ordinary people.
However, as long as you are here, he may be weak."
"Ha ha ha ha."
Torina laughed out loud when she heard this. She half lay in Marlenya's arms and said.
"Micaela is not as good as her brother. This is normal."
"Well, it's not a bad thing to be better than my brother."
Marennia also nodded. If it came to a contest of strength, she couldn't beat her brother.
Lani just snorted and didn't say anything in this regard, but spoke to Latan.
"We've prepared a banquet tonight, so call all the people you brought back over.
The scale is huge, even some of the Cuckoo Knights will come, so your few men are not a big deal."
"Okay, I'll inform them." Latan agreed immediately.
Roland was still agonizing over Melina. No matter what, let her keep yelling. If a quarrel really broke out, he would come to help.
At this time, he was ready to slip away and go find Melina first.
Marlenya and Tolina did not suspect anything either. Roland said goodbye to them and left.
On the corridor, Miss Dixie lay on his back, and Roland held her thighs with his hands.
She was still wearing black sword armor, which had no feel at all, but if she were wearing other clothes, you could appreciate it carefully.
"You really don't act like a royal in this respect. You don't like to give banquets, and you hardly even attend them."
"Golden Tree is a dynasty that was conquered. Those nobles and royal families who held the banquet were just enjoying the benefits. When I become the King of Elden, they will all have to spit out what they have."
Roland didn't teach her about sociology, he just said it casually, but she could feel the emotion behind his words.
Miss Black Knife laughed, feeling that this was another source of great fun. If he really reduced the spending of the nobles and the royal family, those people would fall out.
“Hurry up.
Now that you have killed both fingers, you can kill Radagon someday so that you can be your King of Elden."
"I didn't intend to kill him, and there is actually a question I can't figure out..."
What Roland wanted to ask was about the physical bodies of Radagan and Marika, whether they were one body or two bodies.
Judging from Torina and Michaela, the two people are completely two bodies, but they can also merge into one body, that is, one of them integrates into the body of the other person and returns to the state of one person.
He didn't know if it was the same case with Marika and Radagan, but judging by the game, it was very likely that they shared a body.
But this created a new problem. When Radagon and the Full Moon Queen got married, his mother was at the Golden Tree and didn't go out. Roland also met Marika.
So, there must be two bodies.
Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. I’ll go back and ask my mother when I have time.
Miss Dixie, obviously interested, questioned him.
"What do you want to say?"
"I mean, I don't plan to kill Radagon, just send him back." Roland answered her.
------------
PS No, is it true that the shadow of the golden tree has disappeared?
Why hasn’t it come out yet? I’m so anxious.
Chapter 147 Dress
"alright."
Miss Dixi didn't say anything, as Radagan's life or death had nothing to do with her.
She noticed where Roland was going and asked with a smile, "Are you going to see Melina?"
"Yeah." Roland nodded.
"Aren't you afraid of another conflict?" Miss Dixi glanced at his profile. His blonde hair was tied into a high ponytail, revealing his delicate jawline and ears.
She knew that things weren't going well between Melina and Malenia.
"You should pay more attention to Marennia. She is your youngest sister. She was cursed and sickly in the past, so she received the most love from you.
Now that Melina is here, she must feel that her love and care has been taken away, which is why she is hostile to her. "
"......." Roland hesitated, "I know, I probably know, but Marlenya has recovered from her illness now, and Melina has just left the small room where she was imprisoned, so she needs more care.
Thank you, Dixie.
I will strike a good balance, you don't have to worry too much, I will try my best not to let them quarrel."
"Honey, where's my reward?" She smiled, "I helped you kill Shuangzhi and I'm also helping you!"
"Okay, okay, you can do whatever you want." Roland put his arm around her waist and whispered in her ear, "My dear Miss Dixie."
"That's what you said."
She disappeared and hid in the air. There was nothing around her, as if there was nothing.
The young man stopped, paused, and looked out the window. The sky had turned gray.
The magic academy stood quietly in the afterglow of the golden tree, as if covered with a layer of golden gauze. The usual hustle and bustle quietly retreated at this moment, leaving only a quiet and profound atmosphere.
The wind blew gently, bringing with it faint echoes that lingered in the air.
It was almost time for the dinner, so Roland and Melina explained where they were going and what was going on. After the loud noise today, it seemed like everyone would have to ask.
Unlike others, Melina did not express any surprise, thinking that this matter could not be easier for Roland.
He felt that even if he told her that he had defeated Radagon, Melina would not be surprised.
Even though she wasn't as wooden as she was in the game, Melina still often hid her emotions at this moment. When facing Roland, she usually had a faint smile on her face.
She still remembered the mission that Marika had given her, which was the reason she was born.
Melina had to change her clothes because she was going to attend the party, but Roland didn't mind.
When you have status, you can wear anything. Not to mention that he wore a complete three-piece suit and a vest of a different color, even if he wore pajamas to attend some banquets, everyone who knew him would say that Roland was approachable.
After waiting for a long time, Melina still refused to come out and hid in the bedroom.
"What's wrong? Do you need my help?" Roland asked and glanced at the time.
"No, no, I'd better change into something else." Roland bought all of Melina's clothes from the tailor. He didn't even bother to choose and just took them all.
This means that she has clothes of all styles, so there is naturally no shortage of choices.
She half-pushed the door open, revealing her round, cherry-pink shoulders. The moon-colored satin long skirt she was wearing was too revealing, exposing her shoulders and back.
The long skirt only covers the back, showing off the legs in the front, which are very slender. It looks really good when paired with the high heels that Melina is not used to wearing.
"Go change into something. You don't have to be so formal. Just pick something casual."
Roland looked at the evening gown she was wearing and almost laughed out loud. He wondered where Melina had read that she had to wear such clothes to a party. In the end, he just smiled and asked her to change into another one.
He walked into the room, picked out a long everyday dress for Melina, and found a pair of flat shoes.
It’s a very ordinary outfit, but when worn by Melina, it gives off a pure feeling.
It’s like the white moonlight you encountered in your first love.
Afterwards, Roland took her to today's banquet. On the way, they kept encountering busy servants. They were probably preparing for the banquet. The Kalia royal family, which had not been active for a long time, welcomed its busiest day today.
All the knights were qualified to attend. Almost all the knights of Kalia were here, as well as a few people brought by Latan. As expected, they would all be Knights of the Red Lion in the future, and there were also a few Knights of the Cuckoo.
Including Roland and his group, there were about thirty or forty people at the banquet, sitting at a long table.
At this moment, only Roland is missing.
This order makes sense, because the person sitting in the main seat is the Full Moon Queen, on her right is Lani, then Latan, and there is an empty seat on the left, followed by Malenia and Tolina.
They were not surprised that their princess invited Queen Torina of Marennia, as they were sisters from the same father.
But, who is the one who is vacant?
