Early the next morning, an exhausted Aske got up from bed, got dressed, and planned to go out for a walk.
Although Constantinople is his "hometown" and his "starting point" in this world, Asker has never had much fun in this city.
When I came here for the first time, I faced a strange world and the coming war;
Returning here for the second time, the team is about to split up, and the feeling of returning home cannot be suppressed.
But this time, he could finally relax for a while.
Although Constantinople today is not as prosperous as it was ten years ago, it is much better than when it was just recovered from the Seljuk Empire six years ago.
Almost all the buildings have been repaired, and there is no trace of the appearance of having gone through wars. The streets are also bustling with people, but the residents are no longer mainly Siris people, but are composed of different ethnic groups from various countries.
In the past six years, Theodora had recovered Asia Minor and even reached Jerusalem. Therefore, Constantinople had once again become a hub of commerce and the center of the world, a developed metropolis second only to Solomon City.
However, considering the policy of purging heretics of the Holy See, Constantinople is undoubtedly a better place to live than Solomon City. Therefore, princes, nobles, dignitaries and wealthy businessmen from various countries are all proud to purchase real estate here.
Asker even saw in a nearby housing agency that house prices in the neighborhood where his home is located have risen to 8 pounds per square meter. Based on this calculation, the total price of his house has probably exceeded 1,000 pounds.
By the way, should that house be considered Peggy's or mine?
No matter what, it’s joint property between husband and wife.
Ask comforted himself in this way, and then silently activated the "Ambush" skill, avoiding the sight of the nearby church spies, and went out for a stroll.
………………
About half an hour later, Paige suddenly woke up from bed in Achilles' mansion.
"Ask!" she exclaimed, and then realized that there was nothing around her.
After getting dressed quickly, Peggy rushed to the window in three steps and immediately turned into a bat and flew out.
Although her rationality told her that the group leader must have gotten up some time earlier than her and went out for a stroll.
But Constantinople is not a safe place!
Nora, Eleanor, Medea, Mier, I don’t know how many spies are deployed in this super city. What if the leader is arrested?!
Flying to the door of the church as fast as possible, she turned into a human form under the astonished eyes of the armored paladin guarding the door. Peggy quickly described Asker's appearance and ordered:
"Let the church spies find him as soon as possible!"
The armored paladin quickly took the order and left. After a while, the church's spy network began to operate quickly.
Peggy had no patience to wait for the church's results, and once again turned into a bat and flew into the sky.
A few minutes later, Theodora, who was in the Golden Palace, also received the news that Peggy had mobilized the church spies.
"Ask is missing?" The Storm Queen frowned and stood up.
How is it possible? Can kidnappings and disappearances occur in the capital of the empire where I am sitting? Ask is a demigod! Wait a minute...
Could it be Nora and the others who sneaked in? If it were them, there is a real possibility that Asik would be taken away without resistance!
Without getting any further information, Theodora's thoughts suddenly synchronized with Peggy's, and then some kind of offended anger welled up in her heart.
He sneaked into my empire quietly and wanted to kidnap my co-emperor. Do you really think that we are weak Siris people?!!
Leaving the matter to Lady Varomina, the Royal Ink Master, Theodora quickly flew out of the palace to look for Asik's traces.
…
Asik arrived at a nearby hotel, and a familiar feeling of déjà vu came to his mind.
Oh, here it is.
He still remembered that there was a mercenary training ground underground in this hotel, where Peggy was trained at that time, and he also met Eleanor by the way.
Hahaha, who knew that in any underground training ground, you could meet the princess of the Shinra Empire who had run away from home?
On a whim, Ask planned to go downstairs to take a look, but found that the stairs had been sealed.
"Sorry, guest." The waiter in the corridor explained, "The place below is still under renovation and is temporarily closed to the public."
"I remember if there is a mercenary training ground down there?" Ask asked.
"Ah, that happened in the past." The waiter explained with a smile, "Since His Majesty ascended the throne, our empire's military has become stronger and stronger. In addition, with the subsequent recovery of Asia Minor, the surrounding security situation has greatly improved, so Constantinople
There is no need for so many mercenaries. About three years ago, our boss renovated the training ground and opened a night bar."
"Oh, it's no longer open." Asik was a little disappointed.
"Yes, the bar will not open until nine o'clock in the evening. You can come over after we open." The waiter replied.
Ask left the hotel and sighed with some disappointment.
Well, if Eleanor knew about this, she would probably be a little sad.
How about buying this hotel and renovating it?
Asker came back to his senses with horror, only to realize that his thoughts seemed to be a bit Nora-like, and he quickly threw away this inexplicable thought.
…
On the plane from Aachen to Constantinople, Eleanor and Nora were sitting in the business class, looking absently at the sea of clouds outside.
Suddenly Eleanor snorted, then covered her belly and touched it, showing a somewhat relieved smile.
"He's kicking me in the stomach again, Nora." Knight Ji said with a smile.
"My child is very well-behaved and never makes a fuss." Nora also pressed her belly and said with a smile.
"After all, he is a boy. I still hope that he loves sports and is healthy and sunny." Eleanor said.
Nora's expression froze slightly when she heard this, because Asker seemed to have said the same thing, which immediately made her feel uncomfortable and disgusted.
"Love sports?" she said angrily, "Why are boys so naughty? Isn't it better to be good? If the child grows up to seven or eight years old and runs outside all day long and cannot come home, how much should we mothers worry about?
!Ellie, I don’t think it’s bad to be outgoing, but haven’t we suffered enough from that naughty man?”
Mentioning that naughty man, Eleanor's face became clouded.
Obviously, you married me first! Why did you register with Nora again?
Okay, Nora is my best friend, I will forgive you for this matter for the time being. What's going on with Mi'er and Mia?
Medea said that when she found the ship, the breath in the cabin was estimated to have been measured more than ten times, so you can't control your lower body so much? Don't tell me that they also drugged you!
"Bastard Ask." She couldn't help but cursed angrily.
"Scumbag Asker!" Nora also gritted her teeth.
The two best friends, who had a slight rift at first, soon became the same enemy when they mentioned this unkind and unjust husband.
We’ll talk about Zhengfeng’s jealousy later, the focus now is to bring him back!
