Chapter 824: I'm Sorry, I Broke My Promise
"You're not asleep?" Lu Xi frowned. He stared at the little prince's lake-blue Persian cat eyes until he stared at the other and lowered his head involuntarily.
"Yes, I didn't fall asleep." The little prince was a little embarrassed, and replied softly in a voice that he could almost only hear, like a mosquito, "Father didn't finish the storybook...... I was going to pretend to be asleep and wait until he was gone to finish reading it myself. β
"That's not good, children have to sleep honestly when the time comes, and I don't want you to have to carry eyes as thick as a wine bottle when you're twelve, and blind at thirty. Your health is not good, and you don't know how to cherish it, doesn't it make your parents, brothers and sisters who love you even more sad? Lu Xi taught seriously. At this time, he really looked like a nun who saw a disobedient naughty child, his face was full of maternal brilliance, and he was a holy mess.
"Right...... I'm really sorry......" The little prince was shocked by such a momentum, so he lowered his head and said cautiously: "However, if I don't finish reading a book, I will always think about the story in it, and I can't sleep." β
"Then try to put yourself to sleep. It doesn't matter if it's a sheep or a number. Actually, Your Highness, this is also a way to meditate on your willpower and mind control. Lu Xi said.
In fact, I can't blame the little prince for thinking about it. You must know that this child is born with such a strong mental power and perception ability, which shows that his memory and thinking ability have far exceeded the average human average, and he can no longer be used as a "genius". Instead, it's time to use "demonic" to describe such an unruly talent. In fact, it is easy for such people to focus on one thing. The specific situation is like the one just now - it's just a phone call story, if you don't read it. He will keep struggling with the follow-up plot and can't sleep. Such a trait is inevitably a little suspicious of obsessive-compulsive disorder when used in life, but it will inevitably be invincible when used in learning. Isn't there a saying that has been said? Can only a truly paranoid person succeed in this world?
It's a pity that such a trait was born in such a weak body, and in a sense, this gifted high-IQ brain may have given him a greater burden on his body.
For the little prince Kalman, his fate is truly a tragedy! If he is just a child with simple human qualifications. No matter how weak the body is, the color of this tragedy will not be so obvious.
Of course, the method that Lu Xi taught the little prince was not a fool, but a means for a rookie spellcaster who had just started to train his control. You must know that theoretically, ordinary spellcasters need enough sleep to increase their resistance, but their mental power is different from that of ordinary people, and they themselves are prone to crankiness and difficulty falling asleep. In this way, controlling one's own brain hole has become the first difficult task that every spellcaster has to face.
But. Then again...... Suddenly, the topic ran to the little prince's personal physical problems and the tragedy of fate, doesn't it seem a little off-topic?
"Because Your Majesty Icon's words really make you suspicious, have you passed this suspicion on to your brother His Highness Somans?" Lu Xi asked.
The little prince nodded: "I...... That Mr. Baltoli was too dangerous, though not many times. But I always felt that he was particularly scary. Whatever he seems to do, if he succeeds, something terrible will happen. β
Terrible, of course, terrible! Of course. No matter how terrible things are, they happen to me, the protagonist, first.
"I had hoped that Brother Tomman would inform Uncle Tyrion...... But my brother said that my uncle was too far away in Kaiyan City, and he didn't have time to save us. The little prince looked regretful.
This is finally a bit of normal children's thinking logic. Lu Xi thought. For a child, when there is danger. The first knee-jerk reaction must be to find a way to notify the adults and elders who can be trusted. Of course, after the empress was under house arrest, the emperor was planning a big new ...... Ah no, when there is a big conspiracy that is bigger than the five dark emperors of the multiverse (by mistake), at this time, in the heart of the little prince of Kalman, the only person who plays the image of an adult elder who can be trusted and reliable is probably his uncle, the current Prime Minister of the Empire, Duke Tyrion.
It's a pity that the last time he heard the news of the little giant who fell into the Star Sea, the main force of his army was still circling around the red forest hills. No matter how fast they run, it is estimated that the most elite cavalry of the Vanguard has just reached the western border of the Seridil region.
"My brother told me that we should find a way to ask Sister Karin for help, after all, her army has already entered Seredithir and is close to the emperor...... However, didn't the queen mother always say that Sister Karin is our family's enemy of life and death? β
"The word mortal enemy is a little too heavy for someone your age." Lu Xi replied with a very reluctant smile, and he had completely despised the teasing queen in his heart.
"Strictly speaking, there is actually no personal vendetta between your parents and your cousin...... Evolving to this point, it is indeed a matter of making people. Of course, from your standpoint, you do have the right not to trust Karin...... Her Royal Highness Caterina. On the contrary, the attitude of your brother and sister is a bit abnormal. β
"I don't know, I really don......'t know," the distress on the little prince's face became even more obvious: "Sister Karin is indeed the best of our brothers and sisters, but she is also the enemy of my father and queen mother. The Queen Mother, and the adults of the Privy Council, all said that the sister was the most shameful rebel in the history of the Holy Springs Royalty; However, Mr. Senyuka did not think so, and they believed that the father and the queen should bear the greatest responsibility for the civil war. So, I really can't figure it out. β
If you could really figure it out, I'd suspect you're a baby! Lu Xi couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart.
"However, I at least understand that no matter how big the conflict between my father and queen mother and Sister Karin is...... I think they should all be resolved in a dignified manner on the battlefield. The members of the Dimahia family are right, wrong, good and evil. All should have noble souls, otherwise they are not qualified to sit on the supreme position in Auckland. At all costs. Father and Emperor should not have resorted to an evil demon priest......"
"Is this what Mr. Senyuka taught you? Your Highness. Lu Xi remembered one of the masterpieces of Mr. Wenhao, who died at the end of last year. The name seems to be called "Red and Blue", which tells the story of a protagonist with a noble soul and a humble birth, and his friend with a noble birth and a humble soul. I have to say, this is really a very philosophical β book!
ββ¦β¦ Well, the teacher taught me a little bit, but it was mainly my natural idea. The little boy said seriously: "If I were ten years older than now, I would definitely go to the battlefield to fight Sister Karin for my father and queen mother." But even if I fail, I will face my fate calmly and will never feel sorry for myself. And even more so to turn to a suspicious person like Mr. Baltoli. In any case, everyone in those five legions is also innocent. β
It's really childish, but it's probably also a child's true heart. And, realistically, it was his childishness that gave Lu Xi the opportunity to sabotage this big conspiracy.
As for what kind of method Emperor Iken and that Mr. Magic Advisor were going to use to control those five legions, Lu Xi felt that he could only use other methods to inquire. He didn't think it was something that a five-year-old could find, even if he was a child who was so smart that he bordered on being demonic.
The best-case scenario, of course, is to catch the magical advisor named Baltoli red-handedly. But that guy is a secret, and it's very likely that he is still a master of my generation's level. It's too much of a hidden danger to start in this kind of place, people can't take it down, and it's very likely that all the friends will be trapped in it. Well. If it really doesn't work, he will sneak into the emperor's majesty's bedroom to control the tangled uncle. Anyway, we have the shadow veil of death in our hands, and my generation is also very confident in his stealth skills...... Belch. It's obviously a magician, so why do you have to have confidence in stealth?
But there is no way around it. To know. In order to play an ordinary little nun, he is in addition to being able to "unite man and sword" with the World Tree Scepter. and the Veil of Death Shadow that he could keep close to his body, and he even took off his magic ring, all of which were placed on Blast's side and Nicole's side.
As a veteran RPG player, because he didn't have all the equipment on his body after all, Lu Xi always had a little subtle insecurity.
While Lu Xi was still thinking about it, he heard the little prince whisper again: "I asked the maid Miss Emma to inquire carefully, and it was said that the Imperial Household Agency had recently brought in a batch of relatively rare medicinal materials from outside the palace, but they were not sent to the imperial doctor's room, and all of them were sent to the kitchen." So I deliberately took another look, and found that the chefs had been busy since the morning, preparing a very luxurious meal. However, since the battle with Karin's sister, there have been few such extravagant acts in the kitchen. I inquired about it, and found out that my father was going to hold a banquet in the Moon God Hall tonight to entertain the captains of the five legions......"
β¦β¦ Oh, if you continue like this, I'll really suspect that you're actually a baby wearer!
Lu Xi looked at the little prince Kalman dumbfounded, if he hadn't known that there were guards and maids not far behind him, he might have really picked up the five-year-old child and sliced it by now. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva silently, although he was not frightened to eat spicy noodles, but he still couldn't help but use the exploration technique to shine on the other side twice, and then he was suspiciously sure that this child was indeed a pure human being, not and was not possessed by any strange dirty things, and was not a bear child dressed by a baby.
I'll just say, now that many dimensional universes have been released by the Five Emperors, the new welfare system has been released, and the divine beasts that are still devouring the universe are about to vomit blood - even if it is really the will of the great universe to die, it is impossible to be so brain-dead that another traverser is put in as a big poison point.
ββ¦β¦ So, do you know what kind of medicinal herbs are being sent in? β
"This ......," Prince Kalman said, with a puzzled expression, "I actually wanted to read books on pharmacy and alchemy, but the teachers said that it was too early for me. So...... That, Sister Nun, I'm sorry. β
"I'm the one who should apologize, right? Your Highness, because you are so good. So if you're not careful, you'll be mistaken for an adult. Lu Xi just opened his mouth and thought about it. He changed his words again: "No, it should be said. The vast majority of people, even at my age, will not have your heaviness and calmness, let alone such judgment and decisiveness, and you should be proud of yourself. I can now confirm that if you grow up, you will become a figure no less than that of Her Highness Caterina. β
Lu Xi sincerely thinks so. If this kid was the same age as the red-eyed little Tomman, no, or maybe only ten years older. It is enough to become the fierce rival of Her Royal Highness the world's first princess.
The premise is that fate really allows you to grow up. Lu Xi thought secretly.
"Really, really?" Kalman smiled happily. After all, it's still a child, and it's always hard to stay calm when faced with compliments. What's more, his keen intuition and mental power beyond ordinary people's comprehension make it easy for him to feel the sincerity in the other party's words. The little prince could really feel that this "beautiful sister nun" was standing in a respectable position, sincerely appreciating her performance, and not just treating him as a child with a big red flower. This. He was especially happy.
"But I ...... Isn't it equivalent to betraying his father? He suddenly thought of this, and his mood suddenly became low again.
ββ¦β¦ Well, Your Highness. In your opinion, is His Majesty Iken, who will turn to the evil ways for help in order to win, or the father you are familiar with? β
This kind of speech trap works especially well for such a high-IQ five-year-old. Sure enough, little Kalman was fooled. Without hesitation, he said: "No, my father is an iron man...... Right. Everyone said that he was a brave, fair, and resolute man, as if he were steel. People like him. He may lose to Sister Karin, but he will never give up his principles and the pride of belonging to the Holy Spring Royalty in order to defeat his sister. Yes, he must have been fooled by the big villain called Bartoli! β
It seems that the little prince really hates the magic consultant, and he doesn't even use "sir", but uses the title "big villain". For Prince Kalman, whose tutor is impeccable, this is probably really the most serious use he uses to describe villains.
Lu Xi suddenly felt that he was really low enough, and in order to fool a five-year-old child, he even came up with such a verbal trap. However, looking at the little prince's righteous words, he couldn't help but think that maybe the bald Emperor His Majesty was really bewitched...... You know, judging from the point of view so far, Uncle Iken's performance is actually quite down, it's really like a dick who can't afford to lose. But the problem is that before he became the emperor, he still had an evaluation above the average after all. Even when the Sun King was alive, when Iken was still Prince CΓ©saire, he also had an iron man reputation in the aristocratic circle as "strong and unconquerable", and the people under Cezaire's territory actually had a good reputation for him.
Well, the more I think about it, the more it becomes......
"If my sister wants to go to the Luna Hall, I can show you the way! Well, the dinner party there usually starts at eight o'clock, and we still have more than an hour to spare. The little prince said seriously. Originally, he was just a weak five-year-old child, but at this time, he looked like a warrior ready to charge, and his face was full of blood. This made Lu Xi endure more than that.
It's like a child.
"No, you've done it well enough!" Lu Xi affectionately stroked the little prince's fluffy natural volume - I have to say, it feels really good. He felt that when he made this action, the maids and guards not far away all showed expressions of disbelief, and even accompanied by a long inhalation, they should have been frightened. And yet he did it anyway.
"Don't worry, Your Highness Kalman, even if it is to live up to your trust in me, I will never let that big bad guy Baltoli succeed in his plot, and I will definitely rescue His Majesty Iken." Lu Xi patted his heart hard. He felt that even when he was naturalized in the Federation, he was far less solemn than he is now.
"So...... Wind, did you hear that? Lu Xi patted his chest and said in his heart.
"Rest assured, the space passage has been established. I can guarantee that even if that Baltoli is really played by an Abyss Lord, it will never be possible to find any clues......" Wind's voice sounded in Lu Xi's heart.
"Not only do I see spatial fluctuations, but I also need to be very careful. That guy is not a fool, since he is ready to do it tonight, he must have been prepared for a long time, and he is probably waiting for us uninvited guests to come to the door and smash the field. β
"yes, if I were him, he would." Swift Wind said: "However, since it is a smashing field, Lu Xi, I think you are ready to use brute force directly, right?" Isn't that what we do every time anyway? β
β¦β¦ Even if what you're saying is true, can you not portray us as terrorist saboteurs? As a true magician, even if you are a mob, you must be graceful! How many times do I need to be reminded of such a simple truth? (To be continued.) )
PS: Wahahaha, I said that I didn't change it today, but not only did it change but it was also a big chapter, aren't you surprised, wowhahahaha. So Happy New Year, everyone, by the way, let's count the tickets again...... In addition, some of the stalks in this chapter don't understand it, it's just a little bit of resentment from my author's article group and an old dog. However, after all, I didn't dare to tear my face with these guys after all, so I could only complain casually without naming them.
Speaking of which, the gods of the online literature industry, I am afraid that only the giant who cannot be mentioned but whose pen name is four words really has the style of a literati!
Hey, although the Si people are gone, the five turbid evil world is still the same, which is really fortunate. Perhaps, we are witnessing how shameless, unscrupulous, immoral and visionary capital has played the history of a new industry to death! Isn't it interesting to be a witness to history?
