Forced to become a delicate companion of a paranoid lord

"Dear Uncle Brett, tell me, how did you mess up such a simple matter? What heinous crime did you commit to make the Lord of the Snowfield so angry at the Empire? The Battle of Kulis Mountain failed to make the Far North Territory keep the Empire out. I am really curious about what you have done in the past two months."

Brett looked at the young man sitting in the soft chair, Damian, the second prince of the empire, who was leaning against the wide chair with a smile on his face. He spoke in a very friendly tone, but Brett had been standing in the room for an hour and had not been able to sit down until now.

His Royal Highness the Prince did not ask him to sit down, so he could only stand and answer.

Brett is only the Queen's cousin, not Damian's biological uncle. When the princes are in a good mood, they will give him face and call him uncle, but when they are in a bad mood, they will just call him by his name.

At this moment, it was difficult for Brett to judge whether Damian was in a good mood or not.

It was only after Damian arrived in Good City that he learned that the Lord of the Snowfield had suddenly restricted the Imperials from entering and leaving the Far North Territory.

Brett knew why. The scar on his face had not completely disappeared. Every time he saw it in the mirror, he would remember the horrible murderous intent he had at that time.

He vaguely felt that it might be a wrong decision for the Empire to send Shiavi to the Far North Territory, but some news he heard from the Far North Territory and the scenes he saw with his own eyes all confirmed that the Lord of the Snowfield only kept Shiavi as a beautiful pet.

But for some reason, he always had a very strange feeling in his heart. Brett had wanted to mention this matter to the Queen after returning, but now he suddenly learned that the Lord of the Snowfield restricted the entry of the imperial people on the grounds that they had offended him.

Brett then realized that Sal Pukas was just taking advantage of the situation! He just wanted to demand compensation from the Empire like he did in the Battle of Mount Kulis.

Having tasted the sweetness, the Parasaus became greedy and just wanted to blackmail the empire again.

Brett thought to himself that he couldn't bear such a serious crime because of the greed of these barbarians. The empire was in urgent need of a large amount of magic crystals, and the emperor would not tear his face with the Far North Territory for this matter. When the time came, he would be the only one who would be pushed out to bear the responsibility.

The emperor might ask him to pay a large amount of supplies to the Parasau people as compensation to resolve the matter.

How could he give away all the wealth he had worked so hard to accumulate to the people of Paraso for nothing?

So Brett decided to put all the blame on the Imperial Rose in Naya Castle, and he said with an innocent and aggrieved attitude.

"Your Highness, you can ask other people. I really did nothing. I came all the way to the Far North. I didn't eat well or sleep well every day. I was worried about whether Xi Yawei was suffering here. But when I got here, the child refused to see me. He is now favored by the Lord of the Snowfield and is not as well-behaved as before. Not only did he refuse to accept the Hutt Island we wanted to give him, but he also instigated the Lord of the Snowfield to stop trading with the Empire. He is so willful!"

"Really? According to you, it was my brother Shiyavi who instructed the Lord of the Snowfield to do this?"

The emperor announced to the public that Xie Wei was the queen's youngest son, and that he had not been made public before because of his poor health. There was a folk saying in the empire that weak and sickly children should be hidden before they reach adulthood, or dressed as girls and try not to see too many people, so that they would not be taken away by the devil.

Because he is already an open prince and the youngest son of the queen, Damian said that Shevi is his younger brother.

No matter what the truth is, on the surface, Empire Rose is his biological brother with the same father and mother.

"Maybe he was resentful about being sent to the Far North Territory, and he was still young, so he acted like a child..."

"I will ask Shiawei in person about the specific situation later. As for you, Lord Brett, you can go back now. Before returning to the imperial capital, think carefully about how to get the Lord of the Snowfield to lift the restrictions, and also think about how to explain why you failed to complete the task assigned to you by His Majesty within the specified time limit. His Majesty is very disappointed in you, Lord Brett."

His Royal Highness the Prince with platinum curly hair interrupted Brett's defense. His dark green eyes were full of pity, but his words were very heartbreaking.

"Your Highness Damian, please believe me, this is really not my fault. It's just that the Parasos are too greedy. They just want more supplies! We have already whetted their appetite!"

Brett was unwilling to return to the empire like this. He had stayed in this hellhole for two months, suffered so much cold treatment, and was rudely and undignifiedly driven out of the castle by the Parasos so many times, without getting any benefits. As a result, not only was he accused of offending the Lord of the Snowfield, but the emperor also wanted him to be responsible for solving the problem of the empire being restricted from entering the Far North.

This is simply going to make him lose all his fortune!

"Your Highness, please be my witness. After all, we have the same blood, don't we? Please help me!"

Seeing that Brett was about to kneel at the feet of His Royal Highness the Prince, the knight standing next to Damian took a few steps forward to block the emotional Foreign Minister.

Damian knew that Brett's career as Foreign Minister had come to an end. His father, the Emperor of the Heiseidon Empire, had long wanted to vacate the position for a minister he trusted. It was just that due to his grandfather and mother, he had not been able to find a suitable opportunity.

However, Damian himself is happy about this matter, because the new Foreign Minister who may take office in the future has a good relationship with him.

Damian said with sympathy and apology: "I will go to the Lord of the Snowfield and Shiavi to find out the situation. If it is really not your fault, I will plead for you. However, since you have been unable to bring back the magic crystal, our soldiers have suffered heavy casualties. My father is very angry. I think I can't plead for you in this matter."

When the knights were about to take Brett out of the room, the noble prince stood up, walked up to Brett and said with a smile:

"Also, although I call you uncle, Mr. Brett, I have the noble blood of the Golden Dragon flowing in my body. We do not have the same blood. Don't say such ridiculous things next time."

Damian's smile did not reach his eyes. After hearing what he said, Brett's mind became a little clearer. He lowered his head and said nothing more.

Brett left Goode City the day before the celebration, but he did not return to the empire immediately. Instead, he went to the merchants' tents in the adventurer settlement.

After staying in the adventurer's settlement for one night, he added another carriage to his caravan the next day, which was loaded with the "goods" he and the merchants purchased.

After Brett left Goode City, the Lord of the Snowfield wrote a note and gave it to Ryan, which was then stuffed into the metal cylinder tied to Persevo's claws.

The big-faced flying monster left Naya Castle when night fell, and flew back the next morning.

The celebration started at eight in the morning and lasted until ten at night for three consecutive days, and it was not yet seven o'clock when Bosaiwo returned.

His bonded partner removed the metal cylinder from its claws and then tied a red and blue ribbon around its neck.

Poseidon, a rare figure with bright colors on his body, spread his wings and flew away from the window. He went to have breakfast with his friend Puka.

Today, all the monsters in the beast shed have been dressed up by their contracted partners. Breakfast time is more lively than any other day. Instead of eating, the monsters are more interested in competing to see who has the most beautiful look.

Puka, who had been forced by Thrall and Shevi to braid his hair a day in advance, proudly lifted up his big wolf head, fearing that others would not see his braided hair wrapped with ribbons and bells. From time to time, he would lift his legs and kick them to let other monsters see the silver hollow leg rings inlaid with gems on his four paws.

After finding his friend but being blinded by his friend's equipment, Persevo looked at the colorful ribbon around his neck: "!!!!!"

Feeling that he was being treated perfunctorily, Perseus turned around and flew back.

Because the lord had not come down from the attic bedroom yet, Ryan did not immediately deliver the letter he had just received. Instead, he went to the big restaurant with others to have dinner. As a result, he was hit in the face by his contracted monster on the way.
