Finnian thought the princess's suggestion was a good one and agreed readily.

Although they were supposed to act separately, Finnian still lived very close to the princess.

After Cecilia and Finnian separated, they quickly learned about the situation on the ground.

Naturally, the system does not provide relevant information.

After learning this, Cecilia even felt a little regretful why she didn't use teleportation magic to come here first.

Teleportation magic does require a huge amount of magic, but if it is just to teleport herself, it can still be done.

Twenty-three days have passed since the first riot broke out in the Gold Mine Road in Aslade City.

There have been constant conflicts of varying sizes between the giants and humans these days, until five days ago when "Her Royal Highness the Princess" "accidentally" passed by, calmed the dispute, and the two sides entered the negotiation stage.

At the beginning, the fuse for the conflict between orcs and humans was a shovel of ore.

Shelly, the manager in charge of mining the area, was certain that it was the giant Arnold who stole the shovel of ore.

Arnold thought this was nonsense. Not to mention how much ore was in a shovel, what was mined in the gold mine were all raw stones. What value could be stolen from a shovel of ore that had not been processed and refined?

He tried to explain, but Shelley refused to give in and insisted on sending Arnold to the detention center.

In the Kingdom of Anatolia, if giants, orcs, or dwarves are sent to a detention center, they will not be able to get out for at least ten or twenty years, and may even be imprisoned for life.

Arnold could not accept this result, so he went to find Shelley again. It was not known who started the fight first, but a scuffle broke out between the two.

Giants are naturally very strong. Arnold just pushed Shelley slightly, and Shelley hit the wooden frame, causing bone damage. Now he is bedridden and unable to get out.

Naturally, Shelley's family was even more unwilling to let Arnold go, claiming that Arnold not only had behavioral problems but also had violent tendencies, and forcibly sent Arnold to a detention center.

Arnold was a popular person among the local giants, so his family naturally would not compromise so easily. They actually led the local giants in a rebellion.

The first thing that happened was, of course, a strike.

The giants went on strike, and the humans who were watching them work naturally began to curse. The two sides clashed again. During the conflict, a giant started a machine for mining ore, causing an unexpected collapse in the mine.

This was the root cause of the eighty-nine deaths and one hundred and thirty-three injuries at the Buddha Gold Mine Road.

At this point, the city of Aslade was completely plunged into a huge conflict.

However, given the previous accident, neither side wanted to see such a serious accident again, making the situation even more irreconcilable.

Both sides intend to maintain this balance of power.

This situation did not last long. Due to the stalemate, the giants stopped working, and the mine tunnel collapsed, so ore mining came to a complete halt.

The people of Aslade City were naturally unwilling to do so and forced the giants to continue working.

The giants were not so easy to deal with. They demanded that Shelley, who was deliberately causing trouble, apologize and that Arnold be released from the detention center.

Regardless of the race in the city of Aslaide, who wouldn't know that it was Shelley who was causing trouble in the beginning?

It's unbelievable that someone would actually say something like stealing a shovel of ore.

But now Shelley can't even get out of bed, let alone come out to apologize, it's even a question whether Shelley can survive.

Naturally, people in Aslade City had different opinions. Some defended Shelley, while others tried to persuade Shelley to apologize.

Unexpectedly, the person who went to persuade him was driven out by Shelley's wife with a broom.

Shelley himself died of suffocation due to this incident.

Now the conflict was completely unreconcilable, and even those who went to persuade Shelley were labeled "traitors" by the "crazy" people.

And it was at this moment.

Freya appeared.

She comforted the people of Aslade, stopped them from burying Shelley first, and persuaded the giants not to stir up disputes again.

The two sides finally calmed down a little.

Of course, Freya didn't just do that, she also used magic to heal the wounded and reduce their pain and suffering.

The people of Aslade City sincerely thanked Freya for coming.

After Cecilia figured everything out, besides regretting that she was late, she also felt that it was such a coincidence.

Freya's appearance was too coincidental, and Finnian, who arrived in Aslade City with him, also arrived here at the perfect time.

According to the custom of the city of Aslade, a person can only be buried seven days after death, and tomorrow happens to be the eighth day.

According to custom, during the burial, a priest must pray and family members must pray for blessings.

Finnian, the son of the leader of the church in the Kingdom of Anatolia, a priest of this stature will only make Freya more loved here.

If there really was some kind of partnership between the two of them, Cecilia was not so sure that she could win back her reputation.

What a difficult start.

But fortunately, Freya did not achieve perfection in everything.

At least Freya paid more attention to the people in the city, and she only symbolically comforted the giants outside the city.

Although it is not a very good breakthrough, it is a breakthrough at least.

Cecilia didn't dare to delay any longer. After sorting out her thoughts, she immediately took Valken to the giants' residence outside the city.

As soon as I went out, I met Finnian.

It was hard for Cecilia not to suspect that this guy was guarding her at the door.

But this is also good, it means Finnian did not contact Freya.

It is really difficult for Cecilia to face the cooperation between these two people now.

It’s not that she wants to cooperate with Finnian, but she can’t trust Finnian now.

Compared to cooperating with Finnian, she would rather Finnian be a neutral person.

That would be more convenient for her.

"Is the princess going to leave the city?"

Cecilia nodded. Valken was still unhappy with Finnian's disrespect.

But now is not the time to talk about this.

Seeing the princess nod, Finnian smiled and said, "May the Sun Goddess bless you with a safe journey."

Cecilia walked to the car and asked, "Are you waiting here just to tell me this?"

Finnian nodded. "Tommy said it's not safe here. I thought you might not know this, so I came to remind you."

Tommy was one of the two assistants that Finnian brought with him.

Cecilia returned the favor with a smile, "Thank you for your reminder. May the Sun Goddess bless you to always keep a clear mind."

Finnian didn't understand what the princess meant by this, but he still replied, "I will."

Sitting in the car, Cecilia suddenly remembered something, "If you know defensive magic, don't worry about wasting it. Please keep using that magic until I come back."

After saying that, regardless of Finnian's answer, the car started and headed out of the city.
