The first time I saw the silver-haired boy was on the pages of the Ghost World - but at that time, Metanzo and [Yulia] were not in the center of the scene. They just saw the silver-haired boy from a distance.
The evil ghost emperor Kaz stepped out of his armor.
It felt like this silver-haired boy was the final BOSS of the evil ghost world...but he mysteriously disappeared not long after he appeared.
Regardless of whether it was Metanzo or [Yulia] Senior, they were a little unsure about the origin of the silver-haired boy at the moment.
Is he a page character like Kaz, [Sunny], or Miss Gamma, or... something else.
"Which family are you children from?" Finally, the silver-haired boy came to the two of them and asked in a very easy-going tone: "Why are you here."
"Looking for...looking for the bathroom!" Senior Sister [Yuliya] said quickly: "I can't find it!"
"So that's it." The silver-haired boy smiled slightly, "I thought you were planning to do something evil... The bathroom is over there."
"Thank you." Medanzo nodded and motioned to [Yulia] senior sister to leave with him... This silver-haired boy was not easy to deal with.
"Wait a minute." The silver-haired boy asked again at this time: "You haven't told me which family you are children from."
"Count Decrea!" Medanzo said quickly: "We came with the Count."
"De Correia?" The silver-haired boy nodded thoughtfully, and then said with a smile: "It's okay, you can go...turn back to Count Decreia, and wait for me to say hello to him."
"May I ask, sir, what do you call us?" [Yuliya] Senior Sister's heart moved.
"You don't know me?" the silver-haired boy asked, slightly surprised.
[Yuliya] Senior sister smiled and said: "We know that you must be a person of noble status."
The silver-haired boy chuckled lightly, "My status is not considered noble. After all, in the final analysis, I am just an illegitimate child... However, if your Earl asks, just say [Huang] hello to him."
.”
【shortage】?
Medanzo nodded silently, and then walked with his senior sister in the direction indicated by the young man - at least, they had to walk in this direction before walking out of the young man's sight.
Behind them, the silver-haired boy didn't seem to take this little episode to heart.
He jumped onto the pavilion in the courtyard again and continued to look at the stars in the sky leisurely.
…
…
The man in front of him had long silver hair and exuded a noble aura. His eyes were like stars, and there seemed to be something invisible that separated him from everyone else.
[Conferred Nobles] are not qualified to approach the man at all. Only true [Pure-blood Nobles] can get a little closer - the only ones who can really talk to this silver-haired man are the true ones among [Pure-blood Nobles].
A guy with a deep background.
Prince Cicero is the greatest contributor to the prosperity of mankind together with the founder Emperor Carafar...the only prince recognized by the World Government, who is superior to all [pure-blooded nobles].
As for the approach of Captain [J], Barbaria had no time to stop him - just as he was secretly anxious, Captain [J] had already stopped and was just looking at the star-like arch from a distance in the crowd.
Moon-like Prince Cicero.
Barbaria instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly came to the side of the leader [J], and said in a low voice like a warning: "My young man has always hoped to become a student of His Highness Cicero. Don't try to ruin my young master's stay in the West."
The impression in His Highness Serro’s heart! Otherwise I will never forgive you!”
"Want to be this person's student?" [J] Team leader seemed to have heard something interesting. He suddenly chuckled and said, "Your young master really has a lofty ambition."
Barbaria snorted coldly: "How can a wilderness villager like you know the young master's ambition?"
At this moment, Metanzo and [Yulia] Senior Sister came back from the crowd - [Yuliya] Senior Sister even asked abruptly: "Does this Prince have a daughter named
Gamma’s?”
Barbaria frowned in surprise: "Why do you ask this?"
[Yuliya] Senior sister shrugged and said, "Nothing, I'm just curious... I didn't seem to see her at Her Royal Highness's birthday party."
Barbaria shook her head and said: "I heard that Miss Gama was sent by the Prince to study at the home of a great scholar, and she has not returned to the Holy Land yet."
"So, Gamma won't appear in this story for the time being?" Senior Sister [Yulia] nodded thoughtfully and muttered: "But the relationship seems to be inherited..."
Barbaria asked in confusion: "What are you talking about?"
The senior sister smiled and said: "I'm just talking nonsense... By the way, when I just went to the bathroom, I met a person, and he asked me to say hello to your Count Decreia on his behalf."
"Who?" Barbaria suddenly frowned and asked.
Senior sister [Yuliya] said casually: "He didn't tell me who it was, he just said his name... [Huang], do you know."
"What!" Babaria pinched senior sister [Yulia's] arm nervously in an instant, "Are you...are you rude? Or disrespectful! Tell me!"
"...Who is this [Huang]?"
"He is!" Barbaria looked solemn, and then lowered her voice: "He is the [Desolate] Prince! He is a true member of the royal family!"
"He's actually a prince!" Senior sister [Yulia] had some guesses in her mind. According to the identity of [Z] in the world on the previous page, wouldn't that be...a family?
——What if this is [Boss]’s life experience?
"Young Master, we have missed a good opportunity." Barbaria said regretfully in Medanzo's ear at this time: "If I had known that if we could meet the [Desolate] Prince, we should also go for a walk in the courtyard... If we could
If you have a good relationship with Prince [Huang], it will be as beneficial to you, Master, as it is to become the prince's student. Although the identity of Prince [Huang] is somewhat taboo, after all, he also holds the legitimate right to inherit the empire...
"
Barbaria is really loyal, devoted to the main task and dedicated to doing the right things.
Medanzo couldn't help but blinked. Is this the blessing of Count Decreia who has turned into a dead ghost?
Emmmmmmm…
"The prince should still be in the courtyard." Senior Sister [Yulia] suddenly smiled and said, "If you go there now, you might still be able to see him."
But Barbaria shook his head: "Prince [Huang] doesn't like to be close to outsiders. It's valuable to be able to say hello this time. But if we take this opportunity to get close again, it would be inappropriate... After today's banquet, we should formally pay our respects.
That’s right.”
"Okay." Senior Sister [Yuliya] shrugged, and then said: "I heard something just now... The protagonist of today's banquet, Her Royal Highness, seems to have disappeared. The servants of the manor are now missing.
They are all searching like crazy."
"No wonder the princess hasn't appeared yet. I also feel a little strange. But..." Barbaria suddenly looked up and down in confusion at the juice squeezer she picked up at the Fantasy Circus, and said in disbelief: "Why are you lying on the bed?
You can encounter so many things in the bathroom? What on earth do you do?"
[Yuliya] Senior sister felt that she seemed to be a bit slimmer than anyone else, and she suddenly smiled dryly and said: "Luck, luck!"
Suddenly, a voice of exclamation sounded in the banquet venue!
"He's coming! He's coming--!"
…
The crowd had now emptied out.
At this time, in the open space of the crowd, stood a bewildered young nobleman. The young nobleman's face looked slightly pale, and he looked at his feet with some trembling.
There was an exquisite dagger stuck under his feet - the dagger nailed a piece of cardboard to the ground.
"It's...it's [Joker]! Phantom Thief [Joker]! He's here! This is his mark!"
"This damn thief appears again after all!"
"I thought that after a few years of silence, that guy might have died, but I didn't expect..."
The nobles in the crowd were talking a lot, gnashing their teeth, wishing they could look like the Phantom Thief [Joker] - they didn't know how many people this guy had offended in the first place.
The discussion was getting chaotic, and the scene was slightly out of control. At this time, a handsome young man dressed as a knight suddenly shouted in a deep voice, "Quiet!"
The sound shocked the entire audience. Everyone looked around and saw a silver-haired man slowly walking out behind the handsome royal knight and coming to the side of the frightened noble boy.
The handsome knight picked up the dagger and cardboard from the ground and presented them to Prince Cicero, "Your Highness!"
Their eyes fell on the world prince. After checking two things, Prince Cicero said slowly: "Tonight, I will steal the most precious treasure in the banquet...
...Are you ready? I'm coming."
"Sure enough, it's the [Joker's] tone!" A middle-aged noble suddenly said angrily: "Three years ago, the same notice, the same tone! This damn guy stole my most precious Billy!!
"
Upon hearing this, Prince Cicero glanced away coldly, and the middle-aged nobleman with an excited expression suddenly trembled, trembling and lowered his head.
At this time, Prince Cicero raised the notice card in his hand and said calmly: "The writing on it is indeed very similar, and this kind of dagger is also used by [Joker], but is it really [Joker]?
, we don’t know yet. Everyone, please check your belongings first to see if there is anything missing.”
With that said, the prince immediately arranged for the handsome young knight beside him to temporarily close the manor, and asked him to send in the purge knights who were patrolling the periphery to ask questions.
"Everyone, whether they are [pure-blood nobles] or [confederated nobles], stay put! This is the prince's order!"
…
…
The door to the banquet hall has been closed, and the Royal Knights, who are more senior than the Purge Knights, are currently stationed in front of each door.
The guests gathered in the center of the venue, whispering about something... slightly uneasy.
The main reason is that the Phantom Thief [Joker] has never failed, and countless nobles have fallen in his hands... Even the Phantom Thief [Joker] broke into the palace and finally left calmly.
This thief brought a huge psychological shadow to the nobles of the Holy Land. Even though he had disappeared for several years, when he reappeared, he once again reminded the nobles of the fear of being robbed and helplessly dominated.
"I'm beginning to understand why you regard him as your idol." Senior sister [Yulia] whispered in Cariana's ear at this moment.
This immediately startled the half-elf girl, and she hurriedly said: "Keep your voice down, these nobles will hear you, my ten lives are not enough to kill you!"
"Huh, since Prince Cicero is here, it's okay if the strange thief [Joker] doesn't show up tonight!" Barbaria snorted coldly: "Once he shows up, he will be unable to fly!"
[Yuliya] Senior sister said calmly: "Didn't you say that Mr. Phantom Thief can even come in and out of the palace with ease? I don't look down on this manor, but it's not as important as the palace, right?"
Barbaria was speechless for a moment.
"What will be the most precious treasure at tonight's banquet..." Medanzo had already picked up his pipe at some point and felt it was time for him, the detective, to appear!
"Could it be...the princess?" Senior sister [Yuliya] said abruptly: "Didn't the princess find someone before? This monster thief can steal anything...stealing people is not new, right?
Besides, what else in the entire venue can compare to Her Royal Highness, who is the protagonist of the banquet?"
Hearing this, Cariana could no longer hide the admiration in her eyes, "He's so handsome!"
"At least, he hasn't succeeded yet." The leader of [J] shook his head at this time: "The Phantom Thief [Joker] has always followed the principle of announcing first, then taking action. He will not break this principle. Since the disappearance of the princess,
It happened before the announcement, which means that the Phantom Thief [Joker] has not succeeded yet."
"I heard that [Joker] never misses." Barbaria mused: "Could it be that the princess has already received the information, so she hid in private to break the myth that [Joker] never misses?"
"Why are people in the royal family so boring..." The senior sister immediately rolled her eyes and looked at the crystal chandelier on the ceiling, "Hey, is there something tied to it?"
Everyone looked up.
I saw that there seemed to be bundles of things tied to the brackets of the crystal chandelier... like explosive barrels - the fuses in them had even been ignited.
"Danger——!" Barbaria only had time to shout loudly.
In an instant, a loud noise appeared, and a huge firework burst out above the banquet hall, followed by countless "Boom-Boom--" sounds!
A large number of rockets circulated crazily in the banquet hall, and then exploded one after another, turning into extremely gorgeous fireworks!
The fireworks were brilliant, but people were panicked and cursed.
"Look!"
I saw a figure in the air crashing through the glass transom above the banquet hall and jumping into the banquet hall... It was a slender guy wearing a black dress and a silver clown mask!
"Appeared! Phantom Thief [Joker]!!"
In the chaos, a group of royal knights rushed forward one after another.
The guy in the black dress chuckled, and threw dozens of finger-sized balls with his hands... The balls exploded, and the banquet hall was suddenly enveloped in a pungent smoke.
When the smoke gradually subsided, the guy in black dress was already in the corridor on the second floor of the banquet hall. At the same time, the guy in black dress also held a woman on his waist.
"I took the treasure away." The guy in black dress chuckled.
As soon as he raised his hand, the weapon he held shot out a grappling hook, grabbed the broken skylight glass frame, and then climbed up calmly.
Seeing that the Phantom Thief was about to escape, Prince Cicero quickly drew out the sword of the knight guarding him with an expressionless face and threw it away.
The sharp long sword directly cut off the rope of the grappling hook, and the Phantom Thief [Joker], who was unbalanced in mid-air, was about to fall down.
But Mr. Phantom Thief quickly adjusted his posture and landed safely... There was a large area of empty space on the scene, and the royal family actually formed two circles inside and outside.
"Put the princess down and surrender voluntarily." The handsome young knight shouted loudly: "You can't escape."
"You want it? Then I'll give it to you." The guy in the black dress chuckled and threw the woman in his hand without saying a word.
The young man was shocked and shouted loudly: "Catch Her Royal Highness!"
He quickly adjusted his position and finally took the woman in his hands. He looked down and said, "Your Highness, you are not shocked...she is not the Royal Highness!"
At the same time, the guy in black dress had already pulled out a slender sword and broke out towards the Royal Knights on one side - this Mr. Phantom Thief quickly broke through the Royal Knights' blockade and jumped into the crowd of guests.
, and released some fireworks that could rotate rapidly on the ground, scaring the crowd into chaos.
"catch him!!"
The young knight was furious.
The banquet venue instantly became a chase venue between the Royal Knights and Mr. Phantom Thief.
…
Out of the corridor upstairs of the banquet hall, the knights were chasing. However, the Phantom Thief was too agile and it was difficult to catch him. At this moment, a slightly short figure suddenly appeared in front of Mr. Phantom Thief.
on the way.
It was a sword-wielding young man with silver hair wearing luxurious clothes.
The Phantom Thief [Joker] stopped.
The silver-haired boy chuckled and said, "It seems that there will be a good entertainment program at tonight's banquet. I'll come and have fun too."
"Children should not play with swords." Mr. Phantom Thief also chuckled, raised his sword and took the lead in attacking.
The two of them trembled instantly. Their swordsmanship was so exquisite that it was difficult to tell the winner for a while.
"That's... His Highness the Prince [Huang]!" The nobles were all shocked. "His Royal Highness has always been taught by various Holy Land swordsman champions. I didn't expect that this [Joker] could actually be on par with His Royal Highness in swordsmanship!"
"[Joker] is somewhat lacking in strength... He is no match for the prince!" It seemed like a speech from a nobleman who had some knowledge of swordsmanship.
At this moment, something seemed to flash by, and in the next moment, the sword in the hand of Prince [Desolate] was directly knocked away by Mr. Phantom Thief's sword.
[Desolation] The prince glanced at the palm of his hand holding the sword with some suspicion... When the sword was knocked away, the palm of his hand was slightly numb from the shock.
Mr. Phantom Thief also took the opportunity to break out of the window at this time. The Royal Knights reacted and jumped out of the window to chase after him... One of the Royal Knights ran to the [Desolate] Prince in fear.
"Your Highness, are you not injured? This subordinate is incompetent!"
"I'm fine, you can go ahead." [Huang] Prince shook his head: "Don't let people escape...it won't be fun if you can't catch them."
The royal knight was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly and jumped out of the window resolutely.
[Desolate] The prince smiled and walked aside.
I saw him picking up a playing card from the ground, holding it in his hand and looking at it casually.
It was this suddenly shot playing card that first missed the sword in his hand, and then the sword flew out by the Phantom Thief's sword.
The Prince [Huang] upstairs was looking at the chaotic banquet venue below expressionlessly, his eyes gradually became interesting, "So, who could it be... I didn't hear that [Joker] has any accomplices."
