Chapter 93 92 It’s Still Not Too Late to Remedy the Situation

Chapter 93 92. It’s still not too late to make amends now

While talking, Heather suddenly realized a detail that she had overlooked because she was too hasty.

After encountering Lu Yu, she handed over the information about him through the clerk.

Heather had a little idea, wanting the Imperial Knights, who always felt that they were superior, to have a chance to fight with Lu Yu, so she deliberately concealed some details.

In Heather’s mind, the arrogant and domineering Imperial Knights would probably take the initiative to find Lu Yu to compete and learn from him in order to prove that they were better than Xingchen, and then be humiliated.

This matter would end here, and it would not have much impact on the upcoming meeting between the Elf Kingdom and the Gran Empire.

But now Radna’s reaction seemed to be that he didn’t understand the matter at all. Not only did he know nothing about Lu Yu’s background, but he was also offending Lu Yu to death.

This is not right. Even if Radna’s domineering nature broke out, he would not play with fire in such a big matter. He couldn’t bear this responsibility.

Seeing that Radna didn't believe what she said, Heather asked anxiously: "I submitted the letter to the royal court, but your majesty didn't receive it?"

"Letter, what letter..."

Radna blurted out, but he got stuck halfway through, and a very subtle expression appeared on his face, as if he suddenly remembered something and had to choose silence.

This change in expression could not be hidden from Heather or Nalin.

Radna said with a stiff face: "I don't know what letter there is. It's not too late to tell you what you said in the letter now."

Heather gritted her teeth, and seeing Radna's reaction, she knew what happened.

This involves a complex issue that Nalin was unwilling to tell Lu Yu.

Gran V is already old, and the empire he inherited from his ancestors is run very steadily in his hands. The battle with the Elf Kingdom has also changed from a decline to a stalemate, and he has a very high prestige among the people.

In recent years, Gran V's health has been getting worse and worse, and who to choose as the heir has become a matter of concern for the entire empire.

But it just so happened that Grand V never appointed any crown prince, which made each of his children feel that they had a chance.

The nobles, ruling factions, and violent organizations under the empire were inevitably involved in the tide of standing in line.

As an extension of Grand V's power, the Imperial Knights should not have chosen to stand before Grand V died, but Radner was very close to the eldest son, Prince Cornwall.

Cornwall was a relatively conservative person, or in other words, he was somewhat dissatisfied with his father's current distribution and changes in power.

In his opinion, the Imperial Knights were an extension of the royal power, and the side knights such as Fengyu and Xingchen undoubtedly took away some of the royal family's prestige among the people.

Fengyu was okay, the member selection conditions were strict, there were not many civilians, most of them were from noble or former noble families, and at the very least their fathers had military merits.

Xingchen was too eye-catching, the entire Xingchen was all civilians, and the most outstanding Heather actually voluntarily gave up her noble status to join.

Of course, the most important thing was that Xingchen did not stand in line.

The letter Heather sent had to be reviewed by the clerk of the royal court before it could be handed over to Grand V. During this review process, the letter was undoubtedly intercepted by Cornwall for some reason.

Heather couldn't think of the reason why Cornwall intercepted the letter, but she could conclude that Cornwall didn't even want to look at the content when he intercepted the letter.

In his opinion, this might be Xingchen's letter for help. If not, it was a mission report. It would be fine to wait for a while before submitting it. As for the possibility of causing Xingchen's mission to fail and His Majesty's impression of Xingchen to deteriorate, what did it have to do with him?

"Radna, haven't you read the letter? I'll tell you what I saw in Cais!"

Heather was disgusted. Whether it was Radna who stood in line in advance, or Cornwall who thought he was the eldest son and that the throne was a foregone conclusion, she felt disgusted from the bottom of her heart.

Playing these tricks before the succession, if His Majesty finally handed the throne to Cornwall, would he block the channels for the common people to rise one by one, instead of slowly fighting with the nobles like His Majesty did and winning some space for the common people?

When she finished speaking in a cold voice, Radna's face changed.

Radna pretended to be calm: "But he is indeed one of the suspects. Should we let him go just because he is a sixth-level magician?"

"Radna, stop being stubborn. Do you really want to make things out of control?"

Heather's kind words of advice were indeed aggressive in Radna's eyes.

When did Xingchen have the qualifications to command him to do things?

But things were already difficult to back down. Radna could never admit that he had done anything wrong, so he insisted that this was a necessary process for further investigation after locking in the suspects. He never said that he would put these people in prison, but took them to prison for trial.

After a speech, he asked people to call back the people who stayed in the Wind Feather Knights.

The words were also very powerful.

"For your sake, we will release these suspects for now, but the Imperial Knights will still keep an eye on them. If the murderer is among them, I hope you can withstand the anger of the people."

Looking at the smoke and dust left by the Imperial Knights, Nalin, the good old man, finally couldn't help it. He suddenly spat on the ground, ignoring that Xingchen was once his mortal enemy, and started to curse directly.

"He said all the good and bad, and we became the obstructionists. Do you think you can represent His Majesty's will?"

Before the two people who were so angry could curse more, the secretary who had given Lu Yu extra food this morning ran over.

"The magician has woken up and is asking us what we have for lunch... Captain, should we arrange lunch for them, or should we wait until it is sent to the Imperial Knights and we can save a meal?"

Nalin, who was still angry just now, was so embarrassed by Lu Yu that he could no longer say anything.

He woke up and slept, slept and ate, without feeling that he was in trouble at all. Even Nalin, a high-level magician, wouldn't believe it.

Heather also covered her forehead speechlessly: "When Keith met him, he felt that the breakfast in the pub was unpalatable and had to cook it himself... He actually ate the breakfast you provided, and he was still asking for lunch. I was so surprised by Feng Yu’s impression was refreshed.”

He is very picky about food and is very knowledgeable, which is also in line with the nobles.

Ordinary people don't have so many bad habits. It's good to have something to eat.

After learning that they could leave, the magicians who had been detained all night were walking out of the station, turning a blind eye to the lunch provided by the Knights of Feather.

Only Lu Yu stayed.

After notifying Sigrid to come to the station, when Heather and Nalin met Lu Yu, he was enjoying roast lamb and charcoal-grilled whole fish.

This was also the meal he ordered, and he told the clerk bluntly, "It's hard to make a barbecue thing taste bad."

Heather and Nalin wanted to say something, but seeing that Lu Yu was eating so well and not being able to speak easily, they were forced to enjoy the mukbang.

Nalin swallowed hard as he watched Lu Yu tearing into large pieces of mutton, scooping out the fish meat with a spoon and putting it into his mouth.

"It's just the two of you, why didn't the one who should show up the most show up?"

Heather, who noticed the resentment in her words, thought of Radner who left and felt angry inside, but for the sake of the overall situation, she had to appease Lu Yu.

"This may be a misunderstanding. In fact, Captain Radena just wants to ask you to assist in the investigation."

Lu Yu put down the leg of lamb in his hand, picked up the wooden bottle containing pepper, poured some of it, and took a big bite.

Not expressing any attitude is itself a statement.

"Do you really think this is a misunderstanding?"

Neither Heather nor Nalin wanted to face Lu Yu's sharp gaze, and they didn't know how to continue the conversation.

They are all the leaders of their respective knights, and they are strong men with outstanding strength, but now they actually have to pay for the mistakes of others and must not bear the resentment from another strong man.

Nalin clenched his fists tightly, wishing to tear Ladna into pieces.

Heather was thinking about the feasibility of hanging Ladna up and dousing her with a solvent that would make her whole body itch.

Lu Yu didn't say another word. Even though Sigrid and his summons arrived at the station to meet him, he just smiled faintly and said a few words "I'm fine."

As if a volcano was about to erupt, both Heather and Nalin felt the anger accumulated in Lu Yu's heart.

Lu Yu's appetite didn't seem to be affected at all. After finishing a large leg of lamb and eating all the charcoal-grilled fish, he walked to the basin nearby and washed his hands.

"In that case, we have nothing more to say."

"Captain Nalin, thank you for your hospitality. Your barbecued meat and fish are really good. I'm very satisfied with the meal. That lovely secretary over there, thank you for meeting my breakfast request."

"Miss Heather, thank you for your assistance as well."

"Sigrid, let's go."

After saying that, Lu Yu turned around and left, leaving Heather and Nalin who had not yet reacted, dumbfounded on the spot. Only the secretary chased him to try to retain him, and the method of retaining him was also very special.

"We will have a barbecue banquet tonight, Mr. Lu Yu, don't you want to have some?"

Unfortunately, Lu Yu, whose stomach was satisfied, did not accept the invitation and left without looking back.

"He... just left like that?" Nalin didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

In Nalin's view, high-level magicians also have tempers. No matter how easy it is to talk, if they are so offended, they should say some harsh words, ask for an explanation, or lose their temper.

But Lu Yu didn't do that. Instead, he thanked him and left without mentioning anything about being offended.

Heather's forehead was covered with sweat.

He didn't explode on the spot because he was well-controlled and knew that venting to them would not help.

But someone has to bear this suppressed anger. The longer it is suppressed, the more terrifying it will be when it explodes.

Heather didn't think this matter could end so easily. The dignity of magicians and nobles could not be desecrated.

Nalin quickly made a judgment: "It must be reported. In any case, the matter here must be made known to His Majesty. We cannot let Lu Yu escalate his dissatisfaction with Ladna to the entire Grand Empire... It is not too late to remedy it now!"

I lay down for a while and then fell asleep, my, my
