Chapter 120 119 Not a Good Prince, but a Good Child

Chapter 120 119. Not a good prince, but a good boy

"You're still too young."

After the Elf King finished speaking, he narrowed his eyes slightly and seemed to be smiling.

Under the throne, Aesop was bent over. He never raised his head to look at his father seriously.

Just now, Aesop did a very stupid thing. He asked to see the Elf King while he was resting, and then bravely asked about Queen Ramona.

The attack in Yas and the revelations pointed all the fingers at Queen Ramona, but Aesop never waited for his father to punish Ramona.

Aesop, who was being taught like a child, suddenly became stunned. He gritted his teeth and raised his head.

"If father thought what I was doing was wrong, why didn't you point it out personally? You always said that I was too young, but you never taught me what to do, right?"

The Elf King on the throne was stunned for a moment and laughed.

"Do you know that based on what you said today, this position is basically not for you."

"Do you know that there are some things that you should understand by yourself? If you still haven't understood it, then you can stay silent instead of coming to me for an answer and risking being looked down upon by me. Want it!"

"madness!"

"You disappoint me!"

The Elf King's voice was fierce. He patted the throne and stood up.

Aesop shrank subconsciously. Ever since he was a child, he had always respected and feared his father.

At this moment, Aesop suddenly remembered his sister who was as lively as a kingfisher as she was clinging to him.

He no longer flinched, nor was he forced back by his father's harsh words. Even if he was punished and lost the "opportunity" his father said, he still wanted an answer.

"After all these years, I am still offering sacrifices to her, and I am the only one left to pray...Father, her death anniversary will be in a few days, and I want to give her some good news this year."

"For more than twenty years, too many people have died because of her..."

"In order to prove his innocence and prevent the war, the upright second prince of Grand did not hesitate to commit suicide."

"They were once friends, but they were forced to die one after another and became victims of certain people's pursuit of interests."

"If my father still cares about the lives of ordinary elves, then you must still remember how many of our people died in this war and how much suffering our vassals suffered."

Aesop looked directly at the Elf King with clear eyes.

"You once fought for the disabled elves against the corrupt major families, and finally reversed the trend and protected these poor people... Why can't you see the person who is hiding behind you and manipulating the situation now!"

The Elf King's eyes were cold, and Aesop looked at him calmly and fearlessly.

The palace, which had long since been emptied, became the best chat room for the father and son.

Finally, the Elf King's expression softened, and he sighed in a calm tone: "Same as your mother, weak, but extremely stubborn at heart. You must do what you are determined to do even if it means a dead end."

"I have arranged so many teachers for you, hoping that you can learn to be diplomatic, but you still can't understand this."

The Elf King looked around, found a step and sat down.

No longer sitting high on the throne, he was now more like an ordinary elf, sitting on the branch that carried the soul of the elf.

The Elf King said: "Yes, I know that Ramona is secretly forming her own power. I also know that she started doing this more than twenty years ago. I even know that she killed little Nina...and I found out soon after the war started.”

The Elf King stretched out his hand to stop Aesop, indicating that he should speak first.

"Lu Yu is a very smart man. Did he say anything to you when he captured Moru?"

Aesop recalled: "He seemed to have told me in private that Moru would not leave your room alive..."

The Elf King smiled.

"So he is a Marquis, a pioneer who is valued by Emperor Seris, and you are just an idiot who was bullied by other princes and can only hang out with girls."

When the Elf King said "idiot", his tone was not harsh, and Aesop rarely felt a hint of doting in it.

"He reminded you like this, but you are still so stupid today...it's really upsetting."

"Aesop, tell me, if you were a noble, and your privileges were damaged by me, you could have disposed of them at will, but because of my existence, the abandoned person could only forcefully provide money to raise him, do you hate me? ?”

"this…"

Aesop immediately put himself into the aristocratic group, and there was no doubt that he hesitated.

"It's a very good substitute. Then please continue to substitute."

"One day about fifty years ago, I discussed with several confidants about the opening of the Thoresen Library, and gave the nobles the choice of opening books for discussion."

"The Sanctuary elves were the first to oppose me. Even though they have the right to choose to open it up, they still don't want to start it."

“Because knowledge is power, and opening up libraries means that knowledge is no longer their monopoly.”

"Excuse me, if you were a sanctuary elf, would you think I was a bastard?"

The Elf King's words had a silent effect. Aesop was already sweating profusely. He did not dare to answer the words and could only listen numbly.

"Now you see, you want me to deal with Ramona, and that's really okay."

"But if I kill her, will it change anything?" the Elf King asked, "She is just a noble, a puppet supported by the elders of the Sanctuary Elves."

"They saw the danger from my small changes. In order to make me less dangerous and to quickly quell the danger after it appeared, they launched Ramona."

"Without Ramona, there will be new puppets."

Aesop sat on the ground dejectedly.

"So, are we going to turn a blind eye?"

Seeing how sad Aesop was, the Elf King stopped speaking in a harsh tone.

Kindness and gentleness are beautiful qualities that are always worth praising. It's a pity that Aesop is a prince and his heir who still has hope.

"I still have some time to change. Maybe you can wait and see patiently."

"It's not a bad thing to like playing with my sisters, but you have to promise me one thing... Next time, when you want to get an answer from me, it's better not to make me feel that you didn't try hard to think."

"Don't reject the advice given to you by those smart people. Just now, you wasted Lu Yu's kindness. This kindness should have saved your life at the critical moment, but you squandered it casually. Don't you think it's extravagant?"

Aesop walked out of the palace step by step, and the voice behind him stopped him.

"I heard that the elves of the sanctuary asked you to carry the comfort supplies and go to the outside of the Silent Mountains to comfort Lu Yu and his party?"

"Yes, I have bought a lot of delicious food. Lu Yu seems to like it very much. My supplies will definitely satisfy him."

"Then go ahead. After carefully calculating the time, it's time for Lu Yu to come out to replenish supplies." The Elf King waved his hand.

After Aesop left, the Elf King sighed deeply.

"I really want to leave this position to you, but can you really change your naive ideas and make some changes?"

"Little Nina... If you are still waiting for your answer, help your brother. He is now... For Soresen, I can't choose."

...

Sera is working hard to remove the dental calculus for the stupid dragon.

The large toothbrush condensed by the water flow can't do anything about the food residues and dental calculus stuck in the gaps between the stupid dragon's teeth, so Sera can only jump into the stupid dragon's mouth and do it herself.

Although Sera fed the stupid dragon a bunch of fruits before the cleaning began, it can be regarded as removing the bad breath and making her work experience better.

However, some tastes are so unique.

Eating fruits not only did not suppress the taste, but instead formed a unique flavor of bad breath.

Sera, who had blocked both nostrils, struggled to use the tools constructed by petrification magic to remove several pieces of dental calculus the size of a window.

The water toothbrush came in instantly and scrubbed vigorously.

Sera jumped out of the stupid dragon's mouth, took off the cloth stuffed in her nostrils, and breathed in fresh air.

Seeing the stupid dragon who was enjoying brushing his teeth and even scratching the water toothbrush with his dragon claws and playing with water splashes, Sera, who was lying on the ground and didn't want to move, smiled.

In order to go to Shortland to investigate the truth of the plague, she left the Holy Kingdom for more than half a month, and the stupid dragon who was left at home to look after the house honestly abided by the agreement with her.

When someone came to transport fertilizer, the stupid dragon would lie down obediently and watch these people busying around.

When someone brought food to the stupid dragon, the stupid dragon would warmly invite them to eat together.

When there were guests who came to see Sera, the stupid dragon would signal him to look at the tag on his neck.

The tag read "The rabbit is not at home, only the dragon is at home."

There was a rabbit head at the end of the signature, and the anti-counterfeiting mark was very obvious.

The stupid dragon didn't meet the thief who wanted to steal something from Sera's house, which made him particularly disappointed.

Fortunately, Long has a weak concept of time, and for him, a dozen days can pass by just eating, drinking, and taking a nap.

However, Sera has always advocated that good children should have candy, because she didn't get it when she was a good child, so when she grew up, she felt that she had an obligation to let good children have it.

So after learning that Benlong had been feeling uncomfortable with his teeth recently, she worked all morning and cleaned Benlong's mouth again.

"It's really hard, Lulu, who keeps Benlong, but doesn't keep him clean, it's really outrageous."

Lying on the ground, Sera complained and asked: "Hey, Benlong, who is better, Sera or Lulu?"

Benlong tilted his head and said: "Lulu."

"You mean I'm not good?"

Benlong shrank his head, and his paws were pressed together like a puppy.

"That's good... Sera is good."

"Is it me or Lulu who is good?" Sera insisted.

"Lulu... No... Sera... No, Lulu..."

Seeing the stupid dragon constantly pulling itself, its eyes trembling, and its tail swaying in a tangle, Sera laughed.

"You idiot, can't you just say everything is fine?"

The stupid dragon was finally pulled out of a dead end by Sera, and he kept repeating like a repeater: "Sera and Lulu are fine!"

Lying on the back of the stupid dragon, which had fully recovered, Sera breathed a sigh of relief.

The child adopted by Lulu, she finally made him fully healthy.

"Lulu should be very happy to see the state of the stupid dragon when she returns home... But where are you?"

The short rest time was interrupted by the sound of the communication in the house.

It was not from Lulutis, but the "booking information" regularly sent to him by the intelligence network of the Holy See.

As the chosen one of the glorious gods, Sera has the ability to use the intelligence personnel of the Church and designate them to obtain special information for herself.

And this transfer, as usual, cannot be checked by anyone, after all, it is related to the security of the Church's network.

After Sera was persuaded to retreat by the elite of the Solon Empire at the border of Shortland, he immediately booked the relevant news of the Shortland plague.

Half a month has passed, and the intelligence network of the Church has only sent back information once, which is a rare situation.

The information also included the apology of the intelligence staff, who explained why they could not deliver the information in time.

As Sera speculated, the Church's secret sentries in Shortland were all killed.

It was not that the Solon Empire discovered that they had killed them, but that it was caused by the plague.

The plague is extremely lethal. Since the blockade of Shortland, the death toll in the small town of Shortland has been rising steadily.

It is believed that only one-tenth of the cat-eared people survived. If Tanya had not brought many elite healers and asked the border guards to allow women and children to leave the city, it would have been a matter of time before this one-tenth survived.

Shortland is already a dead city. The Vatican personnel who collected information have learned that the emperor of the Solon Empire allowed the guards to burn the city.

"At present, the Shortland plague is real, and the plague is fast-spreading and highly lethal. All the responses of the Solon Empire are within the normal and reasonable range."

"At the same time, we need to report a few pieces of news that we heard during the collection of information about the Shortland plague."

"The elite troops of the Solon Empire in the Shortland area encountered an unknown person at the border. The unknown person was dressed as a plague doctor and tried to sneak into Shortland City, which made many people think that the plague might be related to this person."

"The most shocking thing is that this person escaped from the Solon Empire's forbidden magic formation. The Solon Empire is currently conducting an internal review because they suspect that someone has revealed the magic rhythm of the border army's forbidden magic formation."

Sera didn't expect that her appearance would cause such a big misunderstanding in the Solon Empire.

The second special news is more interesting.

"Someone killed the envoy Solon sent to the Civita region and the local lord of Civita."

"Everyone except the crystal-level warrior was stabbed to death without resistance."

"The weapon of the crystal-level warrior broke and he was beheaded."

It was an interesting way to die. The magician would not think of fighting with the opponent.

In other words, the one who attacked was also a warrior.

"Unfortunately, we still don't know what message the envoy and the Civita lord tried to convey to the squirrel sub-humans in the Civita region."
