Chapter 168 Remembrance

"Go away! Filthy beggar!"

Someone pushed her hard, but she didn't move at all. Instead, she watched the other person stagger and take two steps back.

The arrogant expression disappeared from his face immediately, and after glaring at her fiercely, the other party left in despair.

Unmoved, she continued to move into the crowd. Seeing this woman in tattered clothes, most people frowned and avoided. In this way, she slowly moved to the gate of the inner city of the Royal Capital of Graycastle.

Here is already a sea of ​​people. Although the inner city has no walls and gates in the traditional sense, a symbolic gate made of wooden battens and garlands was erected here. On both sides of the door stood a line of warriors in full body armor. The exquisite armor reflected a dazzling luster in the sunlight. The eagle-shaped hollow armor with wings spread out on the shoulders and the iris flower decoration hanging on the chest, combined with the handsome faces of the warriors, made a group of rich women scream.

The red fluffy cloaks behind the warriors dragged all the way to the ground, looking like a red partition wall from a distance. It was these handsome and mighty warriors who separated the crowd and opened a road several feet wide behind the gate.

The flags fluttered beside the road, and many long strips of golden colored flags hung from the top of the flagpoles, which gave a solemn and solemn feeling. There are many different patterns embroidered on the flag, the most common of which are tower spears. She knew that this pattern represented the royal family of Graycastle, and it was also the organizer of today's ceremony.

Today is the coming-of-age ceremony of Fifth Princess Tilly Wimbledon.

As early as a week ago, this incident had been widely publicized, and everyone in the city knew about it. In addition to the local nobles in Graycastle, many envoys from other kingdoms also came. They carry gifts and marriage contracts, hoping to win the favor of the five princesses.

The church will also send a bishop to preside over the ceremony for her, and the ceremony will be held at Shuguang Square in the center of the city. At that time, the royal family will distribute meat porridge and thick soup, which is why it attracts so many people.

But she didn't come for the food.

Her target is the Archbishop.

Presumably, killing an archbishop under the watchful eyes of the king's capital will definitely make the church lose face and greatly damage its majesty. This sweet taste of revenge always makes her excited. She touched her chest, and there was a snatched dagger hidden there. Although the quality was low, it was enough to kill a mortal.

At this time, there was a burst of overwhelming cheers from the crowd, which interrupted her thoughts. She looked towards the inner city, and the Knights of the Kingdom lined up slowly. The knights who walked in the front were dressed up shiningly, and behind them raised their capes with red background and gold trim, like clusters of dancing flames.

Behind the knight was a carriage pulled by four horses in parallel. The emblem of the royal family of Graycastle was carved on the wall of the carriage, and the wheels and frame were gilded. Bright red pennants fluttered on the roof, and silk embroidered with gold silk was hung at the four corners of the carriage. At a glance, the entire team seemed to be a moving golden ocean.

The flow of people followed the convoy to Shuguang Square, and she was also mixed in the crowd. After entering the inner circle of the square, she was isolated by the guards. Only the nobles could watch the ceremony up close. She estimated that it would only take a few breaths of time for her to rush over, and as long as the archbishop boarded the square, it would be impossible to escape from her hands.

The royal children jumped out of the carriage one after another. Those who walked slowly onto the central stage were probably the five children of Wimbledon III.

Among these people, she saw Tilly Wimbledon, the fifth princess.

There is no doubt that the fifth princess is today's protagonist. Her eyes are full of smart light, which is as transparent as gemstones; the simple parted bangs are paired with cool gray long hair without any embellishments; Among them, she is particularly outstanding; the pattern of the dress on her body is not complicated, and it matches her temperament perfectly. And the most unbelievable thing was that she actually cast her eyes directly on herself, passing through the crowd. Then, she nodded slightly as if to say hello, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

This is definitely not an illusion, in an instant, she had the same feeling. This feeling is very intimate, like friends who have known each other for many years, soft and sweet. It does not come from the recognition of blood, identity or status, but from... the resonance of magic power.

Unknowingly, she let go of the handle of the knife, and quietly watched the woman on the stage.

After the ceremony, two guards found her and wanted to take her into the palace.

As long as she wanted to refuse, the guards couldn't stop her. But she didn't ask anything, and followed the two into the inner city, and finally entered the magnificent palace through a side path.

In a secret room of the palace, she stood in front of the fifth princess.

"……I see."

"What an unfortunate story, so you ended up living in Graycastle like this."

"Don't worry, you don't need to wander anymore, just stay with me."

"I will give you a good make-up, so that they will never recognize you again."

"I have inquired. The monastery was destroyed by fire and all the children are missing. The whole building is left in ruins and ashes."

"Did you have a name before?"

"In that case, let's call you Ashes."

...

Ashes opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Maggie's face.

The other party blinked first, and then hugged her up, "You finally woke up goo!"

She tried to move her fingers, but she did not experience the expected weakness or numbness, and there was no severe pain in her waist.

"How long have I been unconscious?"

"One afternoon," Maggie said, "Nanava said that as long as you are cured, she can wake you up at any time. But at this time, your body will be very tired, so let it take a while to rest naturally. It will be much better for you to recover after waking up."

Ashes patted Maggie's head, slowly sat up from the bed, opened her clothes, and found that her abdomen was intact. The huge wound is like a nightmare, and it disappears invisible after waking up.

"How...how did she treat me?"

"I guess you don't want to know," Maggie pouted, and said after seeing Ashes' persistent eyes, "They collected your scattered... er, parts and stuffed them into your stomach, and then Nana used her magic power According to Lightning, the more parts she collects, the faster she can heal them. If the limb is completely missing, she can't grow it back."

Ashes felt goosebumps popping up, "The dirt and grass clippings on it are also..."

"After the wound heals, the dirty things are discharged outside. Her ability seems to be able to distinguish what is useful and what is useless."

She breathed a sigh of relief, turned over and got out of bed, trying to feel the strength of her body. As a result, just like what Nana said, after waking up, not only did she not feel weak, but she felt more powerful than before.

Ashes put on the black robe, looked at the sky outside the window, and walked towards the door.

"Where are you going?" Maisie asked.

"See Your Highness the Prince." She said without turning her head. (To be continued.)
