"Cervantes, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. ”

Instead of sitting on the throne, but in the study of Krylov III, the black dragon and the maid met their king.

With half-length blonde hair and a delicate stubble, the middle-aged king also had deep blue eyes and looked mature and handsome.

The morning sun shone through the transparent windows of the study, and the elegant wooden table in front of the king was filled with parchment and a kind of white paper—the 'paper' made by the Storm Collar.

Krylov III curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and after the black dragon and the maid entered the study under the guidance of the court servants, the charming mature and handsome uncle just put down the pen in his hand, got up and opened his hands, and fully welcomed the visit of Cervantes and Serena.

The maid was half a step behind her master, and she couldn't tell at all that this beautiful woman with low eyebrows and a submissive face was the actual controller of the Sad Wind Leader.

Today is the fifth day of their arrival in the royal capital, and King Krylov III is 'finally' willing to receive them.

Cervantes looked at the 'papers' that covered Krylov III's desk, and thought of the sun he had seen before he came to his study—it should have been nine o'clock in the morning!

Serena, who was standing behind Cervantes, lowered her head slightly, but her eyes were constantly looking at the study.

The paper on the table, the current time, and Krylov III, dressed like a high-class cowherd in a cowherd's shop—if she guessed correctly, this study was specially furnished, and this time was deliberately chosen by Krylov III.

This kind of white paper is very difficult to produce, and probably no one has mastered that papermaking technique except for the sad wind collar.

This is presumably to increase their favorability.

The sunlight outside the window slanted into the room, and the time was about nine o'clock in the morning, which was to show his diligence.

He was not dressed too fancy and cumbersome, but instead dressed in casual clothes, and had a warm attitude towards them just now, which was to show his closeness to them.

It's human nature to try to grab on to everything you can when you're drowning, it's a survival instinct – and now, Krylov III is slowly 'suffocating'.

The reason why I hung them for three days before was probably to see their attitude, to see what party they were from, and then to see if I could win them over...... Probably so!

A smiling Cervantes gave Krylov III a chest salute and said, "I am honored to meet you, Your Majesty. The wait should have been irritating, but when I saw you in the middle of a business, I suddenly felt that the wait was worth it. ”

Cervantes was not stupid, and when the maid made clear the stakes of this visit, he was like a dragon, from a black dragon with a bit of Erhan's 'otherworldly' temperament to a polite black dragon who did not look like a black dragon at all...... In general, he is still a black dragon, but to outsiders, he is already very different!

Now he was just an expedient measure for the 'gold coins that were probably his own', and he was still him in essence, the chaotic and evil Cervantes.

After hearing Cervantes' compliment, the smile on Krylov III's face became more warm and cordial.

He turned his gaze to Serena and asked knowingly, "This is the famous 'Lady of the Tragic Wind Family' Miss Serena?"

The maid lifted her skirt and saluted, and said with a smile: "I have met His Majesty Krylov III! It is not a big name, it is just a reputation gained by some coincidences, and it is not worth mentioning." ”

"If that's 'not worth mentioning,' then wouldn't I, the king, be as good as a beggar?"

Krylov III made a small joke, and Cervantes and the maid had an embarrassed but polite smile on their faces.

Cervantes' eyes wandered, Krylov III and the maid exchanged pleasantries, and then His Majesty the King said straight to the point: "Secretary Cervantes, I know that the Sorrowful Wind Territory is very heavy on government affairs, but recently I am planning to hold a meeting on the future development plans of the Kingdom of Kolo, I wonder if you can stay in Greenland for a few more days and attend this meeting?"

As if feeling that it was not safe enough, Krylov III paused and continued: "The Sadwinds and the Rezel families have always been two families that are like brothers, and the Duchess of Morrigues is like a grandfather to me, my grandfather died in a magical experiment, and then the Duchess of Morrigues raised my father, and even when I was a child, I had a period of growing up in the Sadwind Territory. I know that the knights are powerful and loyal, but they have no relative status, and I want to change this 'state of decay' and pull this country out of the swamp of 'death'—"

He propped his hands on the table, leaned forward, and asked earnestly with burning eyes: "I wonder if you two can help me with this?" Not as the king of this country, but as the head of the Rezel family and the eternal brother of the Sad Wind family, I beg you!

Krylov III bowed his head slightly, closed his eyes, and pleaded with them seriously and heavily.

"Absolutely!"

As soon as the words fell, Cervantes stroked his chest and smiled, "Not only as an 'eternal brother', but also as the lord of the Sad Wind Lord, I also need to do something for the knights under my command. ”

In this way, he is embarrassed to openly mention the matter of the tax collection of the sad wind! No, I have to hold back, I can't laugh!

Krylov III suddenly raised his head, overjoyed.

"Oh, this ...... It's wonderful!"

"Have you had breakfast, would you like to try the chef's master cuisine?" asked Krylov III, realizing his gaffe, with a smile on his face.

"It's a shame. Cervantes looked regretful, "We've just had breakfast before, and we're dealing with the Grief's estate in Greenland, so I'm sorry for my majesty." ”

Krylov III also felt a little regretful and sighed: "That's a pity, but if Cervantes still has something to deal with, then I won't keep you." ”

Krylov III glanced at the unhandled affairs on the table with a sad face, and the black dragon and the maid saluted and said goodbye: "Then Your Majesty, we will take our leave." ”

The king smiled and nodded, "Go!"

Cervantes and the maid walked out of the palace under the guidance of the court servants, and returned to the shop, and the maid suddenly chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, even a playboy who lingers among the flowers does not have a lie like he did." ”

The black dragon put up the 'open' sign outside the door again, and laughed after hearing the maid's words, "Aren't kings like that?"

"Because knights must follow the 'oath', otherwise even a transcendent knight will lose his power by breaking his oath. The maid smiled and shook her head, "Probably because His Majesty can't muster so many knights who are willing to rebel against the nobles!, that's why he needs the support of our Sadwind Leader, but on the surface it sounds true, but I think he's lying from beginning to end." ”

"He did have a time growing up in the Storm, as Lady Molly once told me. Compared to his 'mediocre' father, his edge pierced the eyes of the powerful nobles - he ruined all his father's efforts!"

The previous kings who endured humiliation wanted to make the royal family rise again, but Krylov III was too anxious to express himself.

When I met him today, it was not so much that he was 'ambitious' as it was that he was 'expressive'.

"I'm a little disappointed...... "The maid held a book and leaned on the shoulder of the black dragon beside her, "His Majesty's acting skills are too clumsy, and he is too anxious." If he plots slowly behind the scenes, he may be able to become a king who will go down in history, but his desire to express himself is too strong. Do you know what it means to be 'pre-men'? He just wants 'pre-men'!"

"Maybe it's because of what I went through when I was younger, when I was younger, but it's so disappointing!"
