Volume Two The Fallen Light Chapter 60 Return to Mogadi...
After hearing Eloise's words, Joan of Arc was a little disappointed, but she immediately cheered up.
It is difficult to persuade a person to change his mind. Only by experiencing, longing for, and experiencing it personally will his mind naturally change.
This is what her godfather Richelieu once said to her.
"It doesn't matter. One day, you will find me, because we are destined, and we are the ultimate complement to each other." Joan of Arc said firmly.
Eloise was speechless, he didn't believe in fate, he just felt it was mysterious and mysterious.
He only knows that man can conquer heaven!
If you work hard, you will have no regrets.
After entering Mogadishu, Ilos took Joan of Arc to the gate of the city lord's palace. After showing the token and passage documents to the guards, the guards quickly went to inform the city lord.
After hearing the report from his subordinates, the city lord, the highest military and political officer in Mogadishu, hurried out to receive Eloise and Joan of Arc.
The city lord of Mogadishu is called Anderma, a baron who is very discerning, good at business, and also possesses considerable abilities. Otherwise, the empire would not be able to let a useless waste with a corpse in charge of the border city.
After Ilosu left last time, he sent someone to investigate Ilosu's identity. He knew that he was a noble and powerful person and should not be offended easily.
Although as an imperial official, making friends with the Principality of Shire would easily attract criticism, he also adhered to the concept of making good friends and doing good things, and tried his best to curry favor with Iroth and build a good relationship, which may not necessarily prevent them from crossing paths in the future.
What's more, Ilosu himself is the youngest paladin he knows so far. He is very powerful. This alone is worthy of his respect.
If Ilosu marries the daughter of the Grand Duke of Charles in the future as rumored, his status will be even higher. As a small person, he is not yet in the core circle of power. If he wants to curry favor with someone like Ilosu, he will have a higher status.
It's impossible.
"Your Excellency Eloise, please come in. You are back so soon. You must allow me to entertain you well." Under Armor made a gesture to invite you in while attentively arranging meals and rest for Eloise.
When the guards on the side saw the city lord's respectful attitude, they knew that the ridiculously beautiful man in front of them must have a noble status. Even his own city lord was humble, so they couldn't help straightening their chests and showing a better posture to stand guard.
"But the woman next to this handsome man is also very good-looking, but she looks a bit younger and not plump enough." The guard on guard thought in unison.
Under Armor saw the beautiful but slightly aloof girl next to Ilosu. He remembered that the last time he saw Ilosu, he was alone and didn't find her. He went out for a walk and brought back another beautiful woman.
But Under Armor is a very measured person. Although he is curious, he knows that there are some things that he cannot ask.
"Lord Under Armor, thank you for your kindness. Hospitality is not necessary. We have other important matters. The reason for coming here is to retrieve my horse." Elos rejected Under Armor's kindness.
"I'm sorry, but I hope you won't refuse the opportunity next time."
Under Armor did not continue to press, and immediately ordered the guards to bring Elos' beloved horse Grape.
After a while, the guard rushed over and reported to Under Armor: "Mr. City Lord, we won't let that horse go no matter how hard we hold it. It seems unwilling to leave our stable."
Under Armor was a little embarrassed and said sheepishly to Elos:
"Sir Elos, could you please go there in person? Your beloved horse seems unwilling to leave."
Eloise didn't think much, so he and Underma walked to the stables at the back of the city lord's palace.
As Under Armor walked, he introduced to Iloth how he had provided excellent service to the noble Shire horse.
He is fed a refined grain mixed with eggs, meat and oats three times a day. A dedicated groom washes him every few days, and even the horseshoes are replaced with the best.
After Elos heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little fond of the city lord Under Armor. He really didn't expect him to be such a smart person.
Although it was just a Shire horse, the fact that he was able to serve it with such joy and unwillingness to leave showed that he had put in a lot of effort.
Maybe he investigated his own identity, but it also proved that people like Under Armor must be outstanding in other aspects.
Although he is devoted to specializing, he is neither humble nor arrogant, making people feel like a spring breeze without appearing too humble. Such a person is indeed a talent.
Often people who are too humble are destined to be looked down upon by people of a higher level.
Although Elos doesn't like complicated interpersonal relationships, he is also a smart person and has the ability to see the subtle things.
He knew that his beloved horse, Putao, had an extremely violent personality and that ordinary grooms could not take care of him in the Shire. He did not expect that Under Armor would put so much effort into it.
Soon they arrived at the stables of the city lord's palace. From a distance, Elos saw Putao surrounded by a group of steeding young mares, just like a human man hugging him from left to right.
Although Grape looks brighter and more handsome, his body is a bit thinner.
Eloise soon understood that it turned out that Under Armor regarded Grape as a stallion and got a bunch of beautiful horses to let Grape do the same thing every day. There is no reason why he should not lose weight.
Under Armor was extremely embarrassed when he saw this, so he had to carefully explain to Eloise.
"Your Majesty Elos, your beloved horse is so splendid that it has attracted our best mare. It is a little haggard these days."
Eloise couldn't help but laugh, which was understandable. You must know that Putao has always been a virgin and has no partner yet. This time, it will be quite difficult for him.
"Oh, it doesn't matter. The grapes are taken care of by you, Lord Under Armor. This hard work should be paid. Besides, it has also enjoyed the blessing of horses."
"Hahaha"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
"Xu..."
Iroth gave a long whistle.
After hearing the familiar voice of the owner, the grapes that were being nibbled on the right and left immediately raised their heads and looked at Eloise. Then the horse's eyes lit up, and he squeezed away the little mare around him and ran towards Eloise with a long stride.
Putao ran to Yiluosi, opened his mouth, and licked Yiluosi's face full of saliva to express his longing for these days.
After thanking Under Armor for taking care of the grapes, Eloise took the grapes and left.
But Putao was a little reluctant to part with the little mares in the stables, and those little mares started to whine one after another. After all, they had had a romantic relationship with Putao these days, and there were no more plump stallions like Putao in Mogadishu.
Putao turned around and ran towards the mares in the stable, saying goodbye in a burst of lingering and reluctance, just like the words of love between lovers before parting.
Finally, with a cruel heart, he turned his horse around and ran towards Elos.
After rejecting Under Armor's invitation to a banquet, Elos left the city lord's palace with Putao and Joan in hand.
Looking at the grapes of the divine horse, Joan of Arc couldn't help but sigh, it is really a divine horse.
Putao was a little afraid when facing Joan of Arc. It seemed to be keen and understanding of human nature and felt that Joan of Arc was not a good person.
When the two of them were about to walk out of the city gate of Mogadishu, Ilosi was attracted by the notice in front of the city gate.
Just a cursory glance immediately shocked him.
The notice contains information about the wanted former princess of the empire, Catherine, and the fact that His Majesty Charles III was jointly assassinated by Ronin, Ivan, and Catherine. Now they have surrendered, Catherine is on the run, and Peter has ascended the throne.
Shocking news about becoming emperor.
Even if you don't believe that Yekaterina, Ivan and Ronin can do such things as assassinations, because they really have no reason or necessity.
Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that Peter had done it and then framed it on Luoning, Ivan and Ekaterina.
I didn't expect that Peter, who had always hidden his secrets, was so capable that he could even kill the legendary mage Luo Ning. This man's power was really terrifying.
Joan of Arc also came over at this moment. After reading the information on the notice board, she said:
"I see, I asked why one of the three giants of the Inquisition, Twilight Judgment, and the deputy leader of the Holy Knights suddenly went north. I was still wondering what kind of mission it would be to send two legends out.
, I found out the truth only after seeing the wanted poster today."
After hearing Joan of Arc's words, coupled with the group of red gloves he met in Mogadishu before, Ilosu truly felt the powerful foundation of the Holy Empire and its penetration into the three northern countries.
The winner of this coup lies with the legendary powerful men of the Holy Empire. I just don't know what conditions Peter agreed to by the Holy Empire and what impact it will have on Charles.
Eloise felt a little anxious. He wanted to rush back to Shire as soon as possible and do what he could.
Chaos is about to arise. Although he can't change the overall situation, he just wants to have no regrets and seize what he has in front of him.
But what he didn't know was that it would be a long time before he returned to Shire again.
