Palace of Heroes late at night, at the door of Thales’ bedroom.

Thales was speechless and looked at the people in front of him in utter embarrassment.

"How old are you? How old!" A quick and unpleasant female voice came from in front of him.

"On the first night here," the elf guard Ada looked at the helpless Thales and the timid little slicker behind him, and said sadly under the cloak: "You started taking girls into the bedroom?"

"It's hard for her to be alone..." Thales said aggrievedly.

"So I need your company?" Ada interrupted him with a bad expression.

Next to her, Rolf and Wyatt looked at each other, both looking at Thales with strange expressions.

"Ada, listen to me..." Thales subconsciously felt something was wrong.

"How old is she! Is she nine years old?" Ada shouted angrily, habitually raising her right fist and protruding one knuckle.

Thales was shocked. He raised his hands as fast as possible and protected his forehead.

"Boom!"

Thales held the right side of his forehead in pain - foul!

Ada's violent tremor actually came from the side!

Rolf and Wyatt looked at each other, pretending not to see the prince being violently assaulted.

Little Slippery looked worriedly at Thales, who was dizzy, covering his head and groaning.

"Mindis didn't touch a woman for the first time until she got married at the age of twenty-seven! Even the most lecherous and wanton Keira was still thirteen years old!" The angry elf guard shouted:

"At your age...you can't even reach the bed!"

Thales smiled awkwardly.

This is a bit exaggerated, sister.

Ada wanted to continue preaching, but was stopped by Putilai behind her.

"I think Your Highness has other reasons, right?" Xingchen's deputy envoy said calmly: "Let's all go back. I will communicate with Your Highness the rest of the matter."

After Putilai's repeated insistence, Ada left angrily and angrily, with a "you little bastard" look on her face before leaving, while Rolf and Wyatt still had that intriguing and strange look on their face.

Thales breathed a sigh of relief and sent the little slicker into the bedroom first.

"It seems that a lot of things happened?" Putilai sighed and looked at Thales who closed the door.

Thales's face darkened.

"That's it," Thales scratched his head, "That person is...well, that is..."

As the second prince spoke, he suddenly remembered the helpless eyes of Little Slippery and Alex's painful expression.

The two little girls met him in the library, but each experienced an unfortunate or lucky fate.

Thales' eyes darkened.

No.

The truth about Little Slippery’s identity...

It's not my place to say it.

In the end, the time traveler sighed in his heart and continued:

"That is Thelma Walton, granddaughter of King Nun."

Putilai's eyes moved and he said thoughtfully:

"I remember that you told me before that the king's granddaughter that I met in the library should be named Alex Walton?"

"Yes, Alex," Thales breathed out slowly: "That's her middle name."

From meeting the Black Prophet to scaring Ramon, his lies became more and more fluent.

He has a calm demeanor and an unchanging expression.

"I have a good relationship with her," Thales shrugged: "So she came to me..."

Having said this, Thales paused.

He suddenly realized that it was four or five o'clock in the morning!

And he had to hide what happened before and make up an excuse to let Lady Walton spend the night in his bedroom...

So difficult!

"That...she, here she comes," under Putilai's suspicious gaze, Thales showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Um, come with me..."

Thales laughed along with him, hesitating and holding back a sentence in great pain:

"Together……"

"Discuss historical issues?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Thales had the urge to slap himself to death.

Facing Putilai's puzzled expression, Thales looked sad and smiled ugly: "You know... we met in the library..."

Thales felt that his face hurt from laughing, and he rubbed his hands guiltily.

"She's...very good at history..."

Putilai raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes filled with a strange meaning that Thales thought could be translated into a sentence:

You go ahead and make it up.

Thales looked at him awkwardly and guilty.

After a few seconds, Putilai slowly sighed.

"Well, as for why you abducted the king's granddaughter into the bedroom late at night and got the permission of King Nun," Putilai showed a meaningful smile: "I won't go into details."

Thales twitched his face and forced a smile to express his gratitude and understanding.

Then, Thales, who breathed a sigh of relief, began to talk about King Nun's proposal.

After listening to the prince's story, Putilai frowned deeply.

"So, King Nun has made up his mind to tie us into his chariot?"

"For him to continue Walton's reign?"

Thales nodded glumly.

"I will report it to the country," Putilai said thoughtfully: "From interests to positions, this matter involves too many things..."

"Also, the 'Shadow Shield', if they are also one of the people who assassinated me under the fortress," Thales thought of Perfitt in the duel, worried: "Although I know that because of the bloody year, they

Fight us till death - but according to Perfitt, do they have other purposes, or have they received commissions from other people?"

Putilai's face darkened.

Scenes from twelve years ago appeared before his eyes.

"It's really not that simple." Finally, in front of Thales, Putilai slowly shook his head: "According to what the Grand Duke said, they want to kill you in order to 'enter the Fuxing Palace'. I'm afraid it's not just

Just buying murder or hatred..."

"Especially after the Bloody Year, the Shield of Shadows has disappeared from the sphere of influence of the Kingdom of Stars and its allies for many years under heavy blows."

"But they didn't give up and chose to assassinate the last bloodline of Bright Star in Exeter..."

"Fuxing Palace... So is it about those things about seizing the throne again?" Thales scratched his head in frustration: "Do we have to find out again who is behind those assassins?"

Putilai stared at Thales's expression.

"No, let your father and the secret department worry about this matter. We will protect your safety." Deputy Ambassador Xingchen, who is good at observing words and expressions, showed a reassuring smile: "You have done enough tonight.

Good enough."

"The risk of war between Stars and Exeter...has disappeared, and Star Kingdom is safe."

Thales's heart moved, and he looked at Putilai.

"This is your achievement." The latter nodded slightly to him, his eyes full of encouragement and recognition: "I don't say much... Although I was full of prejudice against you before, you are indeed a competent Highness.

.”

With a complicated and sad expression, Putilai said slowly: "Not every prince can go far beyond the country's borders at this age to eliminate an inevitable military disaster for the country and its subjects."

Thales took a breath and slowly lowered his head.

yes.

At least.

The mission of this mission is completed.

Although the process was full of twists and turns, it was relatively safe.

"Thank you, Putilai," the prince raised his head and smiled, saying sincerely: "Thank you."

"Without you, without Ada, without Rolf and Wyatt...my journey would have ended in the birch forest of the stars."
To be continued...
