Li Ge's impression of Kalika could not be said to be very good, nor could it be said to be very bad.
In the original owner's small group, although Kalika was always there, she maintained a state of aloofness from everyone. She only hung out with her little follower Xifuni all day long, and other than that she didn't interact with anyone else.
A person has acted very close and yet very strange.
The original owner's affection for Kalijia could not be hidden, at least in Rige's view, it was very obvious, and it was impossible for Kalijja not to notice it.
But Kalika did not treat the original owner specially because of this, did not deliberately keep a distance from him, was quite indifferent to him, and did not get to know the original owner by chance. She was still in the aloof state. It seemed as if she regarded the original owner as no different from others.
people are average.
Therefore, Li Ge's impression of Kalijia was actually not that bad. He only felt that her sense of existence was sometimes strong and sometimes weak.
Now it seems that the eldest lady of the Liat family is indeed as Yuri said, not such a simple person.
Under such circumstances, Yuli told Rige another thing.
"The attack you encountered before may not have anything to do with the heretic assassin, but to do with Kaliga Liat."
What Yuli suddenly said made Li Ge narrow his eyes.
"What's going on?"
Li Ge looked at Yuli, his eyes becoming much more serious than before.
Seeing this, Yuli hesitated for a moment, and finally told Li Ge something she had concealed before.
"Didn't you encounter an attack when you took Ain and Ian out?" Yuli said to Li Ge: "After our investigation, the person who attacked you has been confirmed to be a shadow directly affiliated with the royal family.
knight."
The so-called Shadow Knights refer to people in an assassination force directly affiliated with the royal family of the Kingdom of Jinas.
The people in that assassination team were called shadow knights, and they specialized in doing some shady work for the royal family, that is, they were people who specialized in handling dirty work.
The person who attacked Li Ge and was killed by Li Ge was the Shadow Knight.
"You mean, someone in the royal family wants to touch me?" Li Ge asked doubtfully: "Why?"
At that time, Li Ge was just a magician apprentice from the countryside in the eyes of others. Although he was talented, he had not yet matured. In addition, he followed Aguirre and others around all day long. Logically speaking, he should not be provoked.
The royal family, let the royal family specially send people to touch him, right?
"You said that my attack was related to Kaliga Liat, do you mean that there are people in the royal family who don't want me to be too close to people sent by the duke?"
Li Ge followed this logic.
"That's right." Yuli nodded and said, "I sent someone to investigate on purpose, and I probably found the reason."
According to Yuli, there was a large-scale conflict between the royal faction and the duke faction some time ago.
The origin of that conflict was actually the infamous third prince—Thorok Jinas.
"The third prince Thorok has always believed that no one in this generation of royal children can be his competitor, and he feels that there will be no one else as the next king except himself."
Yuli said to Li Geshanshan.
"But a large number of people in the kingdom's nobles have chosen to side with the dukes, believing that the next king should be succeeded by Saint Nidore Cordelion."
The reputation of the Cordelion brothers and sisters is greater than that of their father in the Kingdom of Jinas. Many people who support the Duke faction choose to support not Duke Cordelion, but the eldest son of Duke Cordelion's family - St. Nidore
·Cordelion.
In particular, St. Nidore Cordelion also attracted a sword master to join their family. This incident directly became the trigger and made countless people believe that he could become a good king.
As a result, Saint Nidore Cordelion during that time could be said to have become a veritable man of the hour. Both civilians and nobles respected him and were very optimistic about him.
Thanks to this, the ducal faction spared no effort to build momentum for St. Nidore Cordelion. As a result, a large number of people in the palace during that time felt that he was the best choice to be the next king.
How could the third prince, who regarded the throne as his own, turn a blind eye to this?
"Since then, the third prince Sorok has always regarded Saint Nidor Cordelion as a thorn in his flesh. In addition, he himself is violent and jealous. During that time, he has been targeting Saint Nidor Cordelion.
Cordelion even did not hesitate to openly insult him in front of all the nobles and embarrass him."
When Yuli said this, she curled her lips and laughed sarcastically.
"Unfortunately, he underestimated St. Nidore Cordelion too much. In the end, not only did he fail to insult him, he was also taught a lesson in front of all the nobles. I heard that even his front teeth were knocked out."
This is a typical villain who will suffer defeat. If he fails to steal the chicken, he will lose all the rice.
In this regard, Li Ge could only say that the so-called prince deserved it.
However, because of this incident, the third prince Sorok completely hated Saint Nidor.
"After that, the third prince was like a mad dog, madly targeting St. Nidore, even the Cordelion family, not even the vassals of the Cordelion family and those from the Duke's faction."
Yuli looked at Li Ge and spoke like this.
"The reason why you were attacked by the "Shadow" people may be because of this."
In other words, the third prince, who was like a mad dog, would not hesitate to destroy anything that was beneficial to the Cordelion family in order to target Saint Nidore and the Cordelion family.
Unfortunately, as a rare talent with the potential to become a tactical-level magician, Rieger was so close to the daughter of the Liat family, a vassal of the Cordelion family, that he was unfortunately targeted by the other party.
"At that time, not only you, many people who were directly related to the Cordelion family were targeted, and those who were indirectly related were unable to escape, making the entire royal capital secretly a mess."
Yuli glanced at Li Ge and said so.
"It's just that the first time you were attacked and you almost died. The time you were rescued by me, I don't know if the Third Prince sent someone from the Shadow to do it."
This matter only became more and more serious later, so at first Yuli did not suspect "Shadow", but suspected the third prince. The person who always thought he was a heretic assassin targeted Li Ge.
.
There was no way, the Franzel family was one of the few nobles who did not take an obvious side, and the news was relatively backward. She could not be blamed for not being informed of such a conflict between the two factions at the first time.
Moreover, Yuli had no interest in the royal family and nobles, so even if she found some clues, she might just ignore them.
In any case, she could not be beaten alive or dead, so Yuli kept an indifferent attitude and became a cold bystander.
It wasn't until Li Ge was attacked for the second time, and Ain and Ian realized that there was "Shadow" in it, that Yuri felt that the person who attacked Li Ge was probably not a heretic assassin, but the third prince.
He was completely offended and angered by that violent mad dog prince.
The other party may not even know Li Ge, but is targeting all people or things related to the Cordelion family.
After understanding this, Yuli went directly to the palace and exposed the matter in front of the king.
The king became furious over this. Not only did he ground all the princes and princesses, he even deprived the third prince of his right to command the "Shadow".
In this way, the matter was somewhat calmed down.
"…………"
After understanding the cause and effect of the whole thing, Li Ge immediately closed his eyes.
"Third Prince Sorok...?"
Is this person the culprit who caused him to be attacked twice in the royal capital?
Li Ge finally knew who he should settle the score with.
Only then did Yuli make a conclusion.
"After returning to the royal capital, people from these two factions may try their best to contact you."
"Some people want to win over you, some people want to have a good relationship with you, but some people may want to do you harm."
"You'd better not get too close to the people of these two factions, otherwise you may be involved in the struggle between them again."
Yuli’s advice is still fresh in my mind.
Li Ge did not answer.
He knew it well.
…………
Recalling the conversation with Yuli at that time, Li Ge looked at the letter in his hand again. After a while, he moved it to the magic lamp aside, lit it, and burned it.
"No matter what you are planning, this time..."
Li Ge curled his lips and smiled, but his eyes were extremely indifferent.
After that, Li Ge pretended that the incident had never happened and handed all the letters to the housekeeper for processing.
Although many of them sent letters of greetings simply because they wanted to have a good relationship with Li Ge, Li Ge had no intention of responding.
If those people knew that they did not intend to become nobles, they probably would not want to associate with Li Ge in the future.
Of course, this is something uncertain.
After all, just because Li Ge is no longer a noble, it does not mean that he will be wiped out by everyone later.
"Sword Master..."
A slight murmur resounded in the room and disappeared in an instant.
…………
Very quickly, two days passed.
Everything in the Franzel family was arranged in these two days, whether it was the stationing of the knights or the tampering of the magic protection system, all were completed with the efforts of Yuli, Marilyn and others.
The number of visitors to Franzel's house also began to decrease, and there were no longer as many visitors as before.
On this day, Li Ge and Yuli finally received the summons from the palace.
"Let's go."
Yuli found Li Ge and showed an invitation letter to Li Ge in the office on the top floor of the villa.
"The royal family has summoned you and I to enter the palace." Youli said concisely: "Are you ready?"
Yuli looked straight at Li Ge.
In response, Li Ge just gave a calm smile.
"Then let's go."
After finishing speaking, Li Ge took the lead in walking out of the office.
Yuli followed Marilyn silently.
Not long after, a carriage drove out of Franzel's family and headed for the palace.
