Western Fantasy: The Princess Wants to Save the World

This was indeed a bold suggestion for Valken.

Cecilia looked at Valken with a hint of gratitude in her eyes.

If Valken stayed in Petra, Gallup would face less resistance in sending troops.

"I have no problem at all. With these knights here, I am somewhat capable of protecting myself. You don't need to worry about my safety."

Of course Valken knew that there was nothing wrong with Cecilia.

Valken has not forgotten Leslian's wonderful performance at the Magician Conference.

Rather than asking the knights below to take the princess's token to Duke Senna to try their luck, it would be better to take drastic measures and go back to Petra to ask for help.

At least Your Majesty will definitely choose to send troops.

The city of Aslade was clearly out of control, and it was a wise move for Her Royal Highness the Princess not to expose herself to the public.

Although it may not be kept secret for long.

According to the current situation in the city, when the city lord will find Her Royal Highness the Princess depends entirely on when Freya will reveal the Princess's existence.

Valken looked at the princess and said, "Please hold on for a while. If you find something wrong, you must put your life first."

Cecilia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. They really treated her like a three-year-old child.

"I will definitely put my life first. Thank you for your trouble."

Valken didn't feel it was hard or not. He left the princess without permission and would be scolded by Gallup when he returned. However, these were no longer things Valken needed to consider.

After the two of them almost reached an agreement, Valken called a knight he was optimistic about, "This is Joyce. Just tell him if you have anything to do while I'm away."

Joyce was a little surprised, "You're leaving?"

Valken didn't have time to explain in detail. "Your Highness will explain the details to you. During this period, Your Highness and the other knights will be in your care."

Joyce was inexplicably entrusted with such an important task and was incredulous for a moment.

After Valken finished his instructions, he immediately set off. The earlier he left, the earlier the army in Petra could set off.

Joyce looked at the captain who had already left, and secretly glanced at Her Royal Highness the Princess beside him.

Cecilia explained to Joyce, "He has to go back to Petra for something. Don't worry, just do what you usually do now."

Joyce thought to himself, how could it be as easy as the princess said?

The plan to destroy the city is still uncertain, and going back to Petra to seek help is an impulsive act without any certainty.

Cecilia would rather be the one who is paranoid than have the city of Aslade really be destroyed by them.

No matter what, the city of Aslade must not be destroyed.

As for why the city lord wanted to destroy the city, that was no longer something Cecilia could understand.

Cecilia, who was worried, heard some noise outside. She looked at Joyce, and Joyce went out to check what was going on.

It turned out to be Finnian.

Finnian smiled and handed the food in his hand to Joyce. "This is the food sent by the people who came to worship and pray today. I thought of sending some to Your Highness."

Joyce took it. He knew the identity of the person in front of him. It was not his turn to greet Finnian on weekdays, so he had to follow the captain's previous practice and said, "Thank you, Sir Finnian."

Cecilia heard the conversation outside but did not come out.

After two days of observation, she felt that Finnian really seemed to have nothing to do with Freya.

Cecilia rubbed her temple.

There is actually nothing that can be certain.

It's really bad.

Finnian didn't know what he said, but Cecilia heard Joyce seeing the guest off, "Your Excellency, be careful on your way."

Joyce brought the food that Finnian had brought, which was some biscuits and milk. The biscuits might have been freshly baked, as they had a strong aroma.

Cecilia was not afraid of being poisoned, so she picked one up and tasted it.

The biscuits were very crispy and fragrant. Cecilia looked at the biscuit in her hand and took a bite of it.

In any case, she didn't want these lives to be destroyed here along with this city for any reason.

Cecilia looked at Joyce and said, "Take these and share them with the other knights."

It was nearly eight o'clock.

Celine came over and asked if Her Royal Highness wanted to wash up and rest.

Cecilia looked towards the door. She was still waiting for the last knight to appear.

She shook her head at Celine. "Let me wait a moment."

Celine didn't know what Cecilia was waiting for, "Just call me when you need me."

Cecilia smiled at Celine.

On the other side, the city lord’s mansion.

Freya has demonstrated the feasibility of her method to the city lord, but a hint of hesitation flashed in the city lord's eyes.

Freya saw the city lord's reaction clearly. "Are you scared? Don't forget what you want. If you want to get something, you naturally have to give something in exchange."

Under the moonlight, Freya's face was charming and attractive, with an unnatural light flashing in her eyes that made people unable to help but sink into her eyes.

The struggle on the city lord's face became even stronger.

Freya lost her patience. She approached the city lord slowly, her voice full of temptation. "I believe the city lord is not a greedy person and will give me a surprising answer, right?"

The black-robed man in the distance outside the city lord's mansion continuously sent dark magic to Freya, but his eyes were not on this side at all.

In the end, Freya did not hear the city lord give her a positive answer, "Your Highness, I will think about it again."

It's so boring.

Freya was extremely anxious. As long as she destroyed the city of Aslade and then dropped from the sky, the same effect would be achieved. That person would also see her value, right?

She can also give the black magician anything he wants.

if only……

The knight did not return until after ten o'clock in the evening.

Celine had no choice but to ask again, and this time Cecilia compromised.

Cecilia felt extremely uneasy lying in bed.

The palace of the city lord.

The city lord read the official letter from the Duke of Bulwell over and over again in his study.

He had never shown this official letter to anyone else, and he didn't think it was the Duke's intention, but the handwriting, paper, and wax stamp were all from the Duke.

Today, Her Royal Highness's intentions and methods coincide with the Duke's official letter.

The city lord couldn't figure it out. It was clearly just a mining accident. Even though the causes were complicated and the conflicts were serious, it was not completely unsolvable.

This is where he grew up, and he knows very well how much the mineral veins here are worth.

Once the city of Aslade is destroyed, Duke Bulwell's income will drop significantly, and he may even face inquiries from Petra.

It might even be a capital crime.

Freya's image flashed through the city lord's mind.

Yes.

The person who provided the implementation method was the kingdom's only princess.

No wonder the Duke suddenly felt bolder.
