Valken was not surprised at all that Cecilia knew magic.

But since his magical ability was actually higher than that of a guild master, Valken had to be on guard.

If she wanted to use magic to harm Your Majesty, wouldn't it be easy for her to do so?

Valken felt that he had made a wrong decision before.

He shouldn't have helped Cecilia hide the truth from His Majesty.

Valken's face was solemn, "Thank you for your cooperation."

Lorian felt that Valken's expression was not right, "Is there a problem?"

Valken would not explain the royal secrets to a guild master. "Nothing happened. You are worrying too much."

Valken stood up and said, "Thank you for your hospitality today."

Lorian sent Valken out of the guild gate, but he still felt something was wrong, so he quickly used magic to remove the badge that Cecilia had left behind last time.

"Prepare the car and enter the palace."

Lorian's feeling had never been wrong. He didn't know whether Valken would go directly back to the palace. He desperately hoped that the other party could take a detour.

The princess's badge is indeed useful, and even the carriage can be driven into the palace.

Lorian hurried over, and when he saw Cecilia, he didn't say much nonsense, "The captain just came to ask me about your magical abilities, and I answered truthfully."

Cecilia also reacted very quickly.

The trip to Clifton Harbor gave Cecilia a basic understanding of what kind of person Valken was.

She was certain that Valken, who had defended her before, would now think that she was a dangerous person.

If Valken really told Gallup that he could use magic, and the other party contacted the black magician, the plot in the original book might be repeated.

Cecilia just said "thank you" and hurried to Gallup's study.

Although he is called a tyrant, Gallup is actually quite hardworking.

When Cecilia rushed to the door of Gallup's study, she happened to meet Valken.

Valken saw that Cecilia was quite alert, but because she was still a princess, he still said respectfully, "Your Highness."

"Captain Valken, I think I might need to talk to you."

Valken didn't know how Cecilia got wind of this, so he subconsciously refused, "Your Highness, I don't think there is anything for us to talk about."

Cecilia rarely used her status as a princess to oppress others. "I think I am still a princess now, right?"

Valken was silent.

"Perhaps you need me to go in now and get my father's letter before you are willing to talk to me?"

Valken felt that the "Cecilia" in front of him was too arrogant.

She wasn't afraid to reveal her true self to Gallup.

Valken was still intimidated by Cecilia.

If Cecilia was really not afraid that Valken would expose this matter to Gallup, she would not appear here.

Seeing that the other party had not yet responded, Cecilia continued, "Then I will go and tell my father now."

Seeing that Cecilia was really about to enter the study, Valken felt that Cecilia was so confident that she might have some hidden secrets. In the end, he stopped Cecilia and said, "Your Highness, I am willing to talk to you."

Thankfully, Valken stopped him.

If it hadn’t been stopped, it would have been another story.

Cecilia secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "This is not the place to talk, come with me."

Valken followed Cecilia and found that Cecilia took him back to her bedroom.

Lorian hadn't left yet and was waiting in the living room.

Celine had just brought out some snacks from the small kitchen when she saw Cecilia coming back. "Your Highness, you're back."

When Lorian saw Valken and Cecilia appear together, he inexplicably felt relieved.

Maybe he really was overthinking it.

Thanks to the trip to Clifton Harbor, Celine was quite familiar with the captain, Valken. "Captain, you are here too. Wait a moment. I will make you some tea."

Cecilia sat in the main seat. On the way back with Valken, she had been brainstorming for a solution.

Celine brought the brewed tea and said, "Please enjoy your meal."

Cecilia thanked Celine and looked at Lorian first, "I need to explain something to you."

Lorian held his breath.

"The royal bloodline was cursed over four hundred years ago and cannot learn magic."

Not only did Lorian's eyes widen, but even Valken didn't know what Cecilia was going to do.

This amount of information would be too much for Lorian.

Is this really something he could know given his status?

Then Cecilia looked at Valken again, "You must be curious about why I can learn magic and why my magic ability is quite high."

Valken nodded.

It's not like he hasn't heard the rumors. Over the years, the royal family has tried to learn magic, but they either exploded and died, or they were simply unable to learn at all.

Given how much Gallup doted on Cecilia, Valken didn't think Gallup would let Cecilia learn something so dangerous.

"In fact, I had a very strange dream three days before my birthday..."

Cecilia told the two people in front of her that it was all a dream that she would be identified as a fake princess at the birthday ball and imprisoned, as well as that the continent of Swester would be destroyed in three years.

"In that dream, there was a kind old man who taught me how to learn magic. After I woke up, I was able to use magic."

This statement is really ridiculous. If you ask a few more questions, it might be exposed.

But Cecilia wasn't completely lying.

Her magic was taught to her by an old man more than four hundred years ago.

"The old man you are talking about has silver hair that reaches the ground, is he very tall, probably as tall as a horse, and looks more like a giant?"

Cecilia had never found Lorian so pleasing and charming. "Yes."

She wasn't lying, but Lorien's description was indeed what her teacher looked like.

Lorian said to Valken, "I can testify that this person really exists, because my magic was also taught by this old man."

Valken frowned, "Since he also taught you magic, I think I should be able to meet him."

Lorian shook his head. "I'm sorry, but he disappeared when I was twelve, and I haven't seen him since."

He then looked at Cecilia and said, "Before Your Highness told me about this dream, I always thought that the things I experienced as a child were the result of my insanity."

Lorian seemed too sincere for Valken to doubt the truth of what he said.

On the contrary, he always felt that there were problems everywhere in the dream that Cecilia just mentioned.

"Why did Freya really take your place in your dream?"
