Qin Ran looked at the sheepskin scroll in his hand that had been sealed with a heavy layer of fire paint with a slight surprise.
Although he guessed that the secret order was very important, Qin Ran didn't know that this order would be a mission-critical item, and even affected the original main quest.
This made Qin Ran curious, wanting to see what was written on the secret order.
However, he knew what he should do most now.
Holding one end of the secret order, Qin Ran handed the secret order to Mary.
Whether it was the death of the other party's mother because of this, or the burning of the tower where he lived, Qin Ran understood that the other party was the most suitable person to open this secret order.
What's more, the main quest after that is even more about the other party.
Qin Ran was unwilling to protect a little girl who was estranged from him.
Who knows if the other party will do something excessive because of the child's heart.
Even if the other party has been very mature from the beginning to the present.
Mary's tender palm trembled slightly, so much so that the scroll trembled with it, but this did not prevent the girl from cutting through the fire paint with a knife.
Mary didn't mean to obscure it.
Therefore, from Qin Ran's point of view, he could see the secret order on the scroll clearly.
Elaine
My body can't hold it anymore.
Every time I close my eyes at night, I can't guarantee that I will see the next day's sun.
So, I need you to bring Mary back to the royal capital and make her understand her identity, her duties, her authority, she is my James's daughter, and she deserves to be the queen of Warren!
In the past, it was my fault, and I also believed that Ellie, you were able to teach her well, so I did not interfere more with you and you fled from me with Mary.
But, now, she has to come back to me!
Please as soon as possible.
I'm really running out of time.
I hope you are doing well with this letter
James VIII
……
Qin Ran swept the contents of the secret order at a glance.
Saying that it is a secret order looks more like a letter from home.
However, the above content made Qin Ran sigh in his heart.
"I see!"
Qin Ran recalled all the things that had happened before, and suddenly became enlightened at this moment.
Why are there assassins, cavalrymen, and even betrayers who have been lurking for years.
It all stems from Mary's identity.
He looked at the girl in front of him carefully.
The golden hair was tied back of her head, and her blue eyes were slightly squinted at Mi Ling, so it became narrow and long, making her mature, who should have been young, even if there was a little freckle on her cheeks, she was subconsciously ignored.
Not pretty.
But there is a heroic spirit in him.
This gives the girl a very special temperament.
"Although he left the king's side with Mary, did he understand the fate that Mary needed to face in his heart, so he carefully educated his daughter?"
Qin Ran silently thought about Ai Lian, the original master of Fort Swut.
The other party's 'reason' really made him feel admired.
That's right, it's 'sanity', not the so-called cleverness, foresight and the like.
The secret order in front of her was not opened, but Elaine already knew what was written inside.
And, everything is properly arranged.
Even though......
There is no fear of his own life.
A person who is not afraid of death is terrible.
Qin Ran would never deny this.
But when he really saw it, he found that his original self was still too superficial.
Qin Ran was sure that Ai Lian had already discovered that something was wrong with Gal Art.
But the other party was still indifferent.
Perhaps, the other party originally had some plans.
But with the departure of King Chincha from the royal capital, everything has become the immediate plan.
Let the other party assist Mary!
Elaine was sure of Girart's choice after seeing the secret order
The other party had already seen through what Gal Art wanted.
Even if there is an incomparably high risk, as long as there are enough benefits, Gal Art will definitely do it, even if it is at the cost of his life.
The greedy nature is enough to confuse Gellat's eyes.
Or even ......
The organization behind Girat.
The temptation of a throne.
Chips in a nation.
Elaine, Mary's mother, had already thought of everything.
She is far away from the prosperity and lonely.
Unable to protect their children in the true sense of the word.
The king may have been quite strong at one time, but at this time, he was also weak.
She is not worried about such a father to protect his children.
Because, she had already expected that the royal capital would become extremely dangerous with the arrival of Mary.
A side line to the royal family.
Great nobles.
I definitely don't want Mary, an 'irrelevant' stranger, to show up and inherit the throne and become Warren's master.
The dark tide is turbulent and the clouds are thick.
Open guns and hidden arrows, one after another, how could Mary, a half-old child, resist it?
So, she needs to find a talisman for the children who go to the royal capital.
Gairat and the organization behind him was an excellent choice.
Elaine has insight into their essence.
It's just that......
Qin Ran subconsciously looked at Mary who was standing there silent.
"Are you so sure that your daughter can do it together?"
Qin Ran muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear.
Everything Elaine did, it looked perfect.
Except Mary.
Qin Ran really couldn't know how Elaine was convinced that her daughter could successfully ascend to the throne under the wandering and coveting of tigers and wolves.
Even the amulet that Elaine found.
When Mary's ascension to the throne is confirmed, it can also become a deadly poison at any time.
After all, they are here for profit.
Unable to satisfy them, they will inevitably turn against Mary.
And it's inevitable.
Qin Ran was sure that they could not be satisfied.
Because, greed itself is endless.
Qin Ran could fully imagine how they would squeeze Mary.
And Mary?
If you can't grow quickly to the point of being equal to the other party, what will you be waiting for?
Death.
What's more, what choice will Mary make when she learns that Gal Art is her mother's killer?
Either way, it's cruel.
Especially when everything is arranged by one's own mother.
"Kind and harsh?"
"Or?"
For the first time, Qin Ran found that he couldn't evaluate a person.
This made Qin Ran fall silent.
After a few minutes, Mary, who was silent, spoke.
"Mother already knew?"
The girl asked vaguely.
It seemed to be asking her mother what was on the secret order.
It was as if to ask her mother for knowing Girat's identity.
But two problems, one in one.
Qin Ran didn't answer.
When the girl asked these words, Qin Ran knew that the other party of Zaohui had already guessed everything.
And, there are options.
"2567, is Wang Duyuan far away?"
The girl asked.
"Not far."
"I'll send you."
Qin Ran replied.
