Chapter 533 Cooperation, the princess is willing to become a bait
"Whether it is the 'Boreas' family where Miss Alice belongs, or the 'Notos' family where Mr. Wood's father used to belong, they are actually the upper-class nobles of the Kingdom of Asra.
In other words, strictly speaking, these two are actually from the Asra Kingdom, right?"
"And I also heard from Rudy-san that your next destination, Wood-san, is the capital of the Kingdom of Asra, right?
If that's the case, why don't we choose to cooperate? Wood, the woman you are targeting this time, Leda Leah, is the strongest swordsman in the Kingdom of Asra, and she is also loyal to the royal family. If you attack her,
, will undoubtedly become an enemy of the current Asra Kingdom."
At first, Wood didn't know why the other party knew so many things. It wasn't until Rudy and Sylphy followed Ariel into the room that Wood instantly understood.
Sylphy changed her name to Fitz and became Ariel's guardian, and the two were close friends. Naturally, Sylphy hoped that Ariel, who was both a friend and a benefactor, could fulfill her wish.
As his childhood sweetheart and lover, Rudy was naturally willing to help Sylphy, so after confirming Ariel's purpose and not conflicting with them, the current scene happened.
"Rudy, you guy...sooner or later you will die on a woman's belly!"
Seeing Rudy appearing next to Ariel, Wood, who was a twin and knew Rudy's character very well, had already guessed what was going on.
The simple reason is that Sylphy and Rudy reunited after a long separation, and even recognized each other this time. Rudy probably couldn't resist Sylphy's coquettish attack, so he told Ariel those things and
It is recommended that he seek cooperation with Wood.
"Classmate Wood, helping me seize the political power of the Asra Kingdom is just an easy task for you.
On the other hand, I can also help you. For example, I can help you find the Leda Leah you are looking for.
And when I become the queen of the Asra Kingdom, I will also make the "Boreas" family and the "Notos" family the largest families in the kingdom.
No, even if you and Rudy want to establish a new noble family, I will give you the greatest support."
A few minutes later, Ariel took Sylphy and left with a male guard named Luke. It was not difficult to see from the smile on her face that Ariel was quite satisfied with the outcome of this negotiation.
Wood finally agreed to cooperate with Princess Ariel. On the one hand, it was for Rudy's sake, and on the other hand, Wood considered what would happen after he died or left this world.
The Holy Kingdom of Milis, the Kingdom of Wanglong, the Kingdom of Asra, plus the Kingdom of Shillong, which has a close relationship with Rudy, even if Wood really leaves this world, the Greyrat family should be able to live happily in this world.
The schooling problem of Nolen and Aisha has been solved, coupled with the good relations between multiple kingdoms, and the Dragon God as his backer, even if Wood accidentally explodes and dies, he won't have too many worries or regrets.
Of course, there is another reason for cooperating with Ariel, and that is that the human-god believer named Leda Leah they went to the Kingdom of Asra to find this time is not an easy guy to find.
As the strongest swordsman in the Kingdom of Asra, Leda Leah is obviously an old human woman, but she has the title of "Water Goddess".
The so-called "Water God" does not mean that his water magic has reached the pinnacle, but that his "Water God Style" swordsmanship has reached the highest level.
The water god style has five major mysteries, and Leda Leah has learned three of them, and there are two more mysteries that are the most difficult among them. Leda Leah has also recombined two of the mysteries and created a sixth one.
The secret meaning is "Deprivation of the Sword Realm".
In short, this is a swordsmanship talent in the local world that is definitely no less than that of Alice. Without the blessing of various plug-ins, Wood probably wouldn’t be worthy of carrying shoes for Alice or Leda Leah.
.
As such a powerful swordsman, Leda Leah would not show up easily in normal times, and as an existence comparable to the seven major powers, if the other party wanted to hide, even Wood and Orstead would be able to hide.
It's hard to find each other.
And it is also for this reason that Wood and the others chose to cooperate with Ariel, the second princess of the Kingdom of Asra.
Ariel sought refuge at Lanoa Magic University because she failed in the struggle for political power. Once she showed up in the Kingdom of Asra, it was very likely that those who fought for power would send someone to assassinate her.
Ariel's bodyguards, Fitz (Sylphy) and Luke, already have "holy level" strength, which is more than enough to deal with ordinary assassins, but they are obviously not strong enough to fight against the army and a large number of strong men.
Something was caught.
So according to Wood and Ariel's plan, they plan to have Rudy temporarily serve as Ariel's bodyguard to escort her back to the country.
If Rudy joins, even if they encounter an army or more powerful people, Ariel and the others will be able to handle it. After all, no matter how bad Rudy is, he is still at the level of the seven major powers.
Once the attack on Ariel fails, the other party will inevitably send a stronger killer until Leda Leah, known as the "Water Goddess" appears.
At that time, it was the time for Wood and Olstead to take action.
Early the next morning, the student president of Lanoa Magic Academy submitted his graduation application to the academy and prepared to leave for home.
In fact, with Ariel's level, she could have graduated a long time ago. The reason why she stayed at the Magic University was just to take refuge and recruit talents.
Rudeus was originally one of Ariel's targets. Unfortunately, before she extended an olive branch, Rudy suddenly asked for leave and left.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Fortunately, Ariel was not disappointed. Not only did Rudy return to the academy soon, but several more awesome beings also arrived.
The seventeen-year-old female sword emperor, the fifteen-year-old super-powerful magician who can fight the Demon King hand-to-hand, and the second-largest dragon god Orsted, plus Rudeus known as "The Quagmire", and
With such a lineup returning to the Kingdom of Asra to fight for power, Ariel really couldn't imagine how to lose.
"Lord Ariel, when you were making this plan, why didn't you discuss it with me first? Isn't this just letting you act as bait? It's really too messy!"
When the team was about to set off, there was also an episode in Ariel's team.
That was Luke Notos Graylat, one of Ariel's bodyguards, who raised objections to this action.
According to Wood and Ariel's plan, Ariel would help Wood and the others lure out Leda Leah, while Wood and the others would help Ariel win over the civil strife in the Kingdom of Asra.
But now, in Luke's opinion, Ariel's behavior is too dangerous.
What kind of existence is the "Water Goddess" Leda Leah? As a high-ranking noble of the Kingdom of Asra, he has also heard of her, and her strength is extremely terrifying.
If it was really him who took action against Ariel, Luke would not have the slightest confidence that he would be able to protect Ariel from the opponent's hands, even for a very short period of time.
"Luke, this is something I have agreed with Mr. Wood and the others before, and if we don't take certain risks, what qualifications do we have to cooperate with a lineup like theirs."
Although Ariel is the second princess of the Kingdom of Asra, she is quite smart and extremely sober. She is quite clear and understands that her identity is nothing special in front of Wood and the Dragon God.
Not to mention that she was just a poor second princess, even if she really became the queen of the kingdom, she would still be just an ordinary human being in front of the world's top powerhouses.
If you want to gain something, you have to give something. Just like now, in front of Wood and Dragon God, apart from her value as a bait, she is of little help in other aspects.
And this is because of the relationship between Rudy and Sylphy, otherwise her status as the second princess would really be nothing in the eyes of the other party.
"But you are the second princess of the Kingdom of Asra. If something happens to you, then what is the meaning of everything we do?"
Although Luke is Ariel's guardian, he also has special feelings for her, so he naturally protests in every possible way at this moment.
"It doesn't matter. I believe in Rudy's strength. Besides, the second princess, if I don't do anything, I will just be a prodigal dog staying in the magic academy."
Luke originally wanted to say something, but Alice on the side was already a little impatient at the moment.
The eldest lady, like the Dragon God, is not a patient being, not to mention the behavior of Luke's mother-in-law and mother, which really makes her a little bit intolerable.
"A young girl has such an awareness, but a grown man like you is such a mother-in-law.
As her guardian, shouldn't you respect her decision? And whether she will be in danger is not something you should consider, right?
The question you should consider is how to protect her when she is in danger. This is your duty as a guard, isn't it?
The duty of a guard is to protect. If you can avoid risks all the time, then what else do you need a guard to do?
If you are unable to give her a sufficient sense of security, that is your incompetence as a guard. What you have to do is how to become stronger, not interfere with her decision."
After Alice's words, Kirinu next to her also showed a look of relief. Even Wood and Rudy, who were familiar with Alice, looked at Alice with surprised eyes.
.
After three days of separation, everyone was treated with admiration. It was obvious that after two years, Alice had grown not only in strength and figure, but also in her mood and attitude. She was far from the unruly young lady she had been before.
It can be seen that Wood's "death" is not entirely a bad thing for Alice. At least in the past two years, the growth trajectory of the once unruly young lady is very gratifying.
Luke, who was much older than Alice, was also scolded by Alice at this moment, but the other person was obviously a person of character. At this moment, he not only did not resent Alice's abuse, but actually
Nod humbly to show that you are taught.
In fact, this guard named Luke can be considered a relative of the Wood family, and he and Alice should also be distant cousins.
The Notos family and the Boreas family are originally a family system, and Wood and Rudy's father Paul's real name is actually Paul Notos Graylat.
That's right, the Luke Notos Graylat in front of him is actually Paul's nephew.
To put it simply, Luke is actually Wood and Rudy's cousin, and the other's father is Wood and Rudy's uncle.
After deciding on the battle plan, the group finally left Lanoa Magic Academy and headed to the Kingdom of Asra.
Along the way, Ariel and the others did not deliberately hide their whereabouts, and were even quite ostentatious. After all, their original role was to act as bait.
And just as Ariel expected, she had just entered the Asra Kingdom, and those beings in the kingdom who regarded her as a thorn in their side started to attack her one after another.
At the beginning, the attackers sent from the royal capital were just small characters. Even if Rudy and Alice in the team did not take action, Sylphy and Luke alone could easily deal with them.
But as Ariel and her party got closer and closer to the royal capital, not only did their attackers become stronger and stronger, but they were also attacked more and more often.
In a forest within the Kingdom of Asra, Ariel and her party, who were taking a short rest here, had just lit a bonfire. Kirenu, who had gone out, had already hunted a wild boar and returned. And Alice, who used to be a rich lady,
And he had already taken out his knife and started the familiar dissection.
As for Rudy, he used magic to scan for possible dangers around him, then carved a simple warning barrier, and then walked to Luke and sat down.
"There is no need to tense up like this all the time, otherwise you will be exhausted physically and mentally before the real enemy arrives, so how can you use your true strength to protect her.
I have set up a defensive barrier around these four weeks, and Wood and Olstead have been secretly protecting us, so we can feel at ease."
Seeing the calm Rudy, Luke couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. In terms of age, he was much older than Rudy, but along the way, he was the one who was taken care of.
one.
Whether it is combat experience or wilderness survival experience, his so-called cousin is much more reliable than his appearance and age.
"You seem to have become accustomed to this kind of life?"
Luke had actually been very curious about this for a long time. What had his two cousins who had never met before gone through to become as powerful and reliable as they are now.
Not only the Rudy in front of him now, but also Wood and Luke before him can feel that the other person is mature far beyond his appearance and age.
A person's appearance and other aspects can be faked, but his or her temperament and self-confidence cannot be faked.
