Chapter 413 - 336: Returning and the Hall Meeting【5K】_3
“What did my ancestor say to you?”
On the other side, Ariel Watson, whose face was also full of disbelief, quickly asked again.
“When the time is ripe, I will naturally tell you all,” Leo Ray said with a faint smile as he once again received the teacup respectfully handed over by Amelia. “However, I can tell you that I have reached some sort of agreement with Hero King Caesar.”
At this stage, mentioning the catastrophe to Ariel and the other two is clearly meaningless.
Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity, leaving a deep and unfathomable mysterious impression in the hearts of the three people is undoubtedly more conducive to their subsequent actions.
After all, having recruited Gregg as the deputy captain of the guards and Celeste Reiss as Ariel’s personal maid,
His next target is naturally the two kingdom generals, who hold high positions and power in the Coldflame Kingdom, but are currently in a completely precarious situation.
Immediately after, Leo Ray pondered for a moment, his gaze sequentially swept over Ariel, Giant Axe General Burt, and Holy Light General Joshua.
He added: “And I have agreed with the Hero King on the next meeting time. At that time, if I wish, it is not impossible to bring Her Highness the Fifth Princess with me.”
Of course, what Leo Ray said was not false.
However, he did not mention the matter of the Sacred Essence Stone.
And the moment he finds the Sacred Essence Stone will undoubtedly be the time for his next meeting with King West.
Moreover, in his words, Leo Ray also revealed a key piece of information.
That is, whether Ariel, as a descendant, can meet the ancestral Hero King depends on Leo Ray, not others.
This point is crucial, and it indirectly indicates that Leo Ray and Hero King Caesar are obviously on an equal footing.
As expected, upon hearing this, whether it was Ariel, Burt, or Joshua, their faces couldn’t help but reveal an unbelievable look.
The three of them understood the meaning behind Leo Ray’s conveyed information at once.
Regardless of anything else, an Otherworldly Lord who had recently arrived and stood on the same level as the Hero King was enough to prove that he was extraordinary!
At this moment, looking at Leo Ray, who was calmly drinking tea,
The expressions on the faces of Ariel and the others began to waver with uncertainty.
Although it was just one-sided testimony, what Leo Ray said earlier about the Royal Family’s hidden secrets were facts.
Therefore, it is impossible to prove how much of this is true or false.
Unless they could truly meet the Hero King himself, who had fallen centuries ago.
On the other side, Leo Ray, who was sitting on the throne, looked at the complex expressions on the faces of Ariel and the others, and smiled faintly.
By now, his goal had been achieved.
Next, as long as he can recruit the two kingdom generals separately.
Then, dealing with Ariel in the end will naturally be easy.
Even the two legions left by the kingdom generals in the Royal Capital will fall under his control at the same time.
Even if they cannot be controlled for the time being, it would still be a victory as long as these two legions do not become his enemies during the upcoming war.
“Alright, Her Highness the Fifth Princess, let’s talk about something else now,” Leo Ray put down his teacup and changed the subject. “It seems that you had seen those black-robed people wearing white masks before the battle at the underground square?”
“Indeed.”
Hearing this, Ariel regained her composure, arranging her slightly curled blue hair and responding, “At that time, in the Royal Capital, there were such strangely dressed people in the group of assassins trying to kill me.
However, they escaped that time, and we did not learn their specific identities.”
“Oh?”
Hearing this, Leo Ray’s expression became serious, and he frowned slightly.
Those who wanted to kill Ariel were naturally the other princes.
Considering this, it undoubtedly showed that among the princes competing for power, one of them might have joined this mysterious organization.
“No wonder the mysterious organization’s strongmen have become increasingly aggressive in the Coldflame Kingdom lately. It turns out that someone in the Royal Capital is secretly working for them…”
Realizing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, revealing a suddenly enlightened look and continued to ponder, “However, this doesn’t affect the matter I am currently implementing, which is to provoke conflict between the Coldflame Royal Family and the mysterious organization.
After all, as long as one prince joins the mysterious organization, they will never allow other princes to join. This might not be a bad thing either.”
Thinking of this, Leo Ray’s tight frown relaxed, and he asked again, “As for these mysterious powerhouses, does Her Highness the Fifth Princess have any other clues?”
“I don’t.”
On the other side, Ariel sighed lightly, shook her head helplessly, and said, “These people are extremely secretive and highly skilled. They killed all the guards with a single blow, leaving no flaws. That’s why they left such a deep impression in my heart.”
“I understand. It is indeed in line with their usual ruthless style.”
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray stood up from the throne, smiled at Ariel, and said, “Alright, Her Highness the Fifth Princess, let’s end it here today. I have enjoyed our time together, and I hope we can have another opportunity to cooperate in the future.”
After speaking, without waiting for Ariel’s response, Leo Ray left the hall with his main subordinates in tow.
In this way, under the watchful gaze of Gideon Black and the others who stayed behind,
Leo Ray did not linger in Cyan Town and immediately went with Taylor and the others towards the forest territory.
Next, it’s time to take inventory of the harvest from this trip!
