After hearing Ronald's explanation, Patricia raised her eyebrows, surprised and a little curious at the same time.
According to her past experience with Ronald.
To become their common 'acquaintance', the other party is either an enemy they have fought against, or a friend [Gred] has met.
But considering the distance between [Looney Kingdom] and [Gred].
Patricia didn't think any of her friends would show up here, so the only option left was naturally the enemies the two of them had dealt with.
Who could this be?
It can't be those dark age wizards who escaped from the sealed world!
Ronald on the side saw Patricia's expression, and a subtle expression appeared on his face:
"Patricia, you don't have to try hard to guess."
"That guy is not far ahead, we will see him soon."
"..."
Patricia nodded noncommittally.
Since Ronald opened his mouth like this, she had no intention of continuing to inquire further. After all, this person was already very close.
The two of them continued walking along the city streets.
But five minutes later, an obviously renovated street shop appeared in front of Ronald and Patricia.
"This...this is a flower shop?"
Arriving in front of the flower shop, it was Ronald's turn to be surprised.
He had never thought before that the holder of the original code in his perception would actually open such a shop in the [Looney Kingdom]. In terms of identity and ability, this was completely inconsistent with the other party.
And right at the door of the flower shop, Ronald and Patricia's 'acquaintance' stood here.
He has a tall and straight body and strong muscles that can be seen through his clothes.
Although there are no leather straps under the arms, the white shirt is almost unchanged from the past.
“Bach Klitchens?!”
Patricia on the side directly called the other party's name.
This 'acquaintance' in Alia's prophecy, the holder of the original code that Ronald perceived, turned out to be the warden [Bach...
Kristians]!
What's even more surprising is the other party's current state.
The warden, who is in good health and has stable and strong magic power, actually opened a flower shop in [Looney Kingdom] honestly.
Under any circumstances, this is an unimaginably weird scene.
"..."
On the other side, the warden standing at the door also frowned slightly.
He noticed that a powerful spellcaster was approaching, so he naturally came out of the shop to check. Unexpectedly, the spellcaster he sensed was actually Patricia!
Although he changed the color of his hair, Nicklaus, the strongest young man in his generation, left a very deep impression when he came into contact with him.
Later he was imprisoned in [Grader] Prison.
He communicated with other imprisoned magicians and learned certain information about Patricia.
So...why does Patricia appear here?
As Niklaus, she couldn't be like herself, crossing the sea and hiding in the "Luni Kingdom" ruled by a cult warlock to avoid being pursued by "Grid", right?
At this time, the warden glanced to the side.
Next to Patricia was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man. Judging from the long sword carried on his back, this might also be Niklaus with disguised hair color?
The two sides faced off for a while on the street in front of the flower shop.
Finally hearing the sound of flower pots hitting the ground in the shop behind him, the warden sighed and spoke first:
"Both of you, as far as I know, you 'swordsmen' shouldn't be responsible for searching for overseas fugitives in [Grader], right?"
This guy really didn't recognize himself!
As soon as the warden spoke, Ronald quickly realized this fact.
Although he was very familiar with the warden, Ronald was still an inconspicuous person in Burrenwich, and the other party did not take Ronald seriously at all.
As for the warden who later became famous and was imprisoned, there was no chance to 'get to know' him.
The result is that Ronald disguised his appearance.
The warden did not recognize his identity at all, and even when Ronald's exposed magic power fluctuated, the other party only regarded it as an act of a strong man showing off his identity.
So much so that we are now talking to each other.
The warden's first conversation target was Patricia next to him.
So, Ronald glanced at Patricia.
The swordsman girl understood this and immediately took a step forward:
"Mr. Bach, my current name is Nia, and I don't come here with a mission."
"The reason why I appear in front of you is entirely for some personal purposes."
"..."
The warden carefully looked at Patricia in front of him.
Then he turned around and walked into the flower shop, and the words he greeted Ronald and the two of them came out:
"Since it's a personal purpose, let's talk first."
Ronald and Patricia looked at each other and immediately followed the warden's background into the store.
At this time, a girl with tears in her eyes stood in front of the warden who came in first. He was holding a few fragments of flower pots in his hands, looking very pitiful:
"Mr. Bach, I'm really sorry!"
"I just accidentally... accidentally fell, I didn't want to..."
"Okay, Lily." The warden did not scold the other party for his rashness. After checking that the other party was not injured, he just comforted the little girl in a gentle tone, "You clean up the floor first, I'm here.
Two acquaintances need to go to the back to entertain them."
The little girl sounded a little confused:
"If you go to the back, if there are guests coming this afternoon..."
"You are responsible for everything." Before the little girl could finish speaking, the warden patted the other party on the shoulder and gave him an encouraging look, "You have been working here for two months."
"I think you can handle such a daily job."
Upon hearing such a request, the little girl froze on the spot.
She had never heard of any shop apprentice who could run the shop on his own after working for two months.
Are you really kidding yourself?
…
Seeing this scene at the door of the flower shop, Ronald felt a sense of immediacy.
The warden took Lumil in at first, and now he takes such care of a little girl with no relatives.
Based on the actual situation, we can guess that the other party has related hobbies.
But when it comes to the mystery test, it is impossible to say that this habit has something to do with the original scripture he holds.
Just like that, under the confused and nervous gaze of the flower shop girl.
Ronald and Patricia followed the warden's back and disappeared behind the door inside the flower shop.
It wasn't until the sound of footsteps going up the stairs disappeared that she reacted suddenly, and then showed a confused look:
"Are these two guests acquaintances who have been to the flower shop before..."
