Facing Prince Lanno's slightly scrutinizing gaze, Anvis also showed a standard aristocratic smile, put his right hand on his chest, and bowed slightly, with a slight sense of alienation in his politeness.
To put it a bit too far, in terms of status alone, he is actually not much worse than a prince.
"Unfortunately, I was unable to formally submit a written application to you, but met in this way."
"But my coming here this time only represents my personal will. So, in the rest of the conversation, you can just call me Anvis——"
Standing up straight again, Anvis said while looking at the future one of the three kings.
Different from the scheming appearance of the seventh prince, Prince Lanno, who has just reached school age, has a young and frail appearance, and seems to be inexperienced in the world.
Of course, if you underestimate him because of this, you will suffer a big loss from him sooner or later.
"Okay, Mr. Anvis, please sit down. I don't think we need to stand and talk."
Prince Lannuo nodded obediently, and at the same time stretched out his hand to gesture in the direction of the sofa in the living room.
"In Pamir Academy, I am not a prince either. Therefore, you can also call me Lan Nuo directly."
When the two sat down respectively, Anvis gently sniffed the aroma wafting in the reception room.
A refreshing smell like mountain snowflakes, with a hint of ice element. Judging from the smell, it should be the aroma of burning silver snow leaves.
"That's the silver snow fragrance, which uses the seventh pure silver leaf of the century-old silver snow grass as the main material. If you like it, I can give you some as a gift when you leave.
As for drinks, there are moonberry juice and elf black tea on the table, you can choose according to your taste."
Noticing Anvis's subtle movements, Prince Lannuo spoke generously.
"In this case, I would like to thank you in advance for your kindness, Your Highness Lan Nuo."
Anvis nodded, thanked the prince, and then stated his intention.
"I am meeting you in private this time, mainly because I want to discuss something with you."
"Is that so?"
Picking up a cup of elven black tea, Prince Lannuo looked at Anvis.
"Sir Anvis, I don't know what your purpose is, but I must make something clear in advance.
Due to my age, there are many things that I cannot make the decision about. If your intention to come involves some major matters, it may be more appropriate to discuss it with some of my brothers."
"On the contrary, Your Highness Lan Nuo, this matter is related to you, and you can make the decision."
With a smile on his face, Anvis also picked up a cup of black tea and shook his head gently.
"I wonder if you have received news from the royal family and need to find a way to contact your sister-in-law?"
"Is this what happened?"
Hearing this, Prince Lannuo frowned slightly, and then quickly relaxed it again. The change in his expression at this moment was keenly noticed by Anvis.
This subtle change in expression usually means that the owner of the expression does not understand what the other person is saying, but does not want the other person to find out.
This made him feel a little surprised. Didn't the royal family issue this order?
At the same time, with his eyes fixed on Anvis' eyes, Prince Lanno nodded.
"If I say that similar news did come in the afternoon three days ago, I wonder what your opinion is on this."
"I can't say I have an opinion, I just have a suggestion."
After taking a sip of tea, Anvis smiled and put down the teacup again.
The taste is average, and there is not much life magic power. It does not look like the leaves of the ancient tree of life, but seems to be just the leaves of the ordinary elf tea tree.
Perhaps he did this deliberately to maintain the image of a simple prince with no ambitions.
"If you receive similar news, Your Highness Lan Nuo, could you put this matter on hold for now?"
"Put the royal family's instructions on hold for the time being? Sir Anvis, do you understand what you are talking about? Or are you threatening me?"
Prince Lannuo squinted his eyes, put down the tea cup, and his expression became slightly colder.
"I know very well, Your Highness Lan Nuo. Therefore, this trip is entirely based on my own 'personal' will and a 'personal' suggestion to your Highness Lan Nuo.
Please don’t misunderstand, this is not a threat, but my attempt to win over you——"
With a perfect smile on his face, Anvis gently spread his hands and emphasized the word "personal" in his tone.
"After all, sometimes, the interests of the royal family do not mean personal interests, right?"
"So, what do you want to say?"
Prince Lannuo spoke coldly.
"It's nothing, but if Your Highness the Prince agrees to my proposal, the outcome of the matter will be more beneficial to you personally."
Anvis leaned back slightly on the sofa.
"I can confess to you, Your Highness Lan Nuo, I have also received news from the family, asking me to do similar things. And I think that maybe communicating directly with you will be more effective."
"Think about it, this matter is not just about the two of us, it depends more on the family strength behind us.
You don't need to be too obvious, just work hard and don't put in any effort. After a period of time, the royal family will take back its orders.
In return, you will receive my personal support, including providing you with some necessary high-level professional power and helping you share the pressure from your brother."
When it comes to supporting the latter part, Anvis directly compresses the sound and transmits it to the prince's ears.
"You're investigating me?"
After listening to Anvis's words, the prince's eyes narrowed dangerously, his eyes already filled with vigilance and 'anger'.
"I have already said that this matter is not just a matter between the two of us.
And, I believe that during these three days, you should also get to know me a little bit."
Anvis shrugged, there was no need to pretend to be threatening, everyone was talking to each other, no one was talking about anyone else.
Because he has the memory of the future, he is very clear about the situation the ninth prince is currently facing.
Although the prince's status seems to be prestigious, in fact, no one is available to him now, and he is even being vaguely ostracized by some other conservative princes.
Taking advantage of this, he could definitely find a way to draw Prince Lannuo to his side.
"Humph, is this also what the Olivendi family means?"
Putting away his expression again, Prince Lannuo also leaned back on the sofa and snorted coldly.
"Have I already said that all my words and deeds this time completely represent my personal will."
With a 'sincere' expression on his face, Anvis picked up the teacup again.
"But your surname is still Olivendi, dear Sir Anvis."
Prince Lannuo also picked up the tea cup and stabbed Anvis at the same time.
"So, what do you mean? Your Highness Lan Nuo?"
After taking a sip of tea, Anvis spread his hands.
