In the reception room on the second floor, a middle-aged man with a goatee was sitting upright on the sofa.

He was wearing a neat and tidy suit and a pocket watch on his chest. He pushed his heavy glasses and handed two cups of sweet tea to the man and woman in front of him.

But he looked at Enzo with a slightly suspicious look, but didn't say much.

The maid standing next to the middle-aged man brought two small plates of desserts to the two of them. They were cookies shaped like whirlpools.

Shishi, who had been hungry for nearly two days, did not hesitate to express his gratitude. After thanking him, he picked up the cookies and started eating them.

The sweetness is lighter, and it doesn't have the rich milky sweetness of Earth. Instead, it has a stronger wheat aroma. Although it is a bit hard, for some reason Lime finds it very delicious.

It's obvious that when she was on Earth, she didn't even touch any fruit, and she even avoided desserts and bread.

The middle-aged man stood up and bowed to the lime, lowering his head humbly: "It's been a long time since we last met, Ninth Princess. It has been half a year since we last met."

"The Ninth Princess?"

"Am I a descendant of the royal family?"

"Is the owner of this body such a powerful person? Why did he become a demon hunter?"

Shihui put down the half-eaten cookie and nodded expressionlessly, her indifferent and aloof eyes as if she were really a princess.

After hearing this, the maid next to her immediately knelt down in front of the lime and prostrated herself on the ground.

The middle-aged man smiled, his eyes flashing with an ambiguous look, and continued:

"Perhaps Princess doesn't know me. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to attend your birthday. I saw you from a distance. Please allow me to introduce myself."

"I am Tukaros Czechov, the president of the Luther City Demon Hunter Guild."

"Your Majesty, just call me Czech. It would be my honor!"

As he said this, he bowed to the lime again, appearing very humble.

Enzo said in disbelief: "You are actually Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

He felt ashamed of asking such a stupid question. He was so bold as to sit next to the princess.

He quickly stood up and half-knelt in front of the lime, bowing his head deeply. This was the highest etiquette of a knight towards the royal family.

In his understanding, Miss Hilde in front of him was just a mysterious witch from a wealthy family. Perhaps her identity was mysterious, but he did not expect that she was from the royal family.

There is only one royal family on this continent, and that is Queen Maria, the Eternal Queen, who unified the continent when the first law was born!

The monarch who has ruled this continent for a thousand years, all of her descendants have her unique golden blood flowing in their bodies.

No wonder Miss Hilde knows magic and can exert such incredible power!

It all explains it clearly!

"You don't have to be so polite, please stand up..."

Seeing the maid and Enzo being so respectful made her feel very uncomfortable. They might have become good friends, but because of their status, their relationship became infinitely distant.

Enzo stood up after hearing Shihui's words. This time he chose to stand behind Shihui. After all, it would be impolite to sit on either side with his status.

Czechov carefully read the golden scroll handed to him by the maid. His originally warm and sunny face gradually became gloomy, until his knuckles turned white from being pinched.

Perhaps because of excessive anger, the hand holding the scroll began to tremble.

"Whoo~"

The sound of Czechlov's breathing was trembling, and he seemed to be using all his strength to put the scroll down.

He pushed up his glasses and pressed the corners of his eyes, and the look hidden behind the glasses became vicious, and then turned into sadness.

"This is...really a huge trouble..."

As if he had made a great decision, his eyes seemed to be pleading, and he asked tremblingly:

"Your Majesty, how are the progress of those cultists..."

Lime recalled what the cultists said yesterday about killing their apostles themselves.

Although he didn't know what apostles were, since they were chasing him so frantically, their identities must be quite powerful.

She said half-truthfully, "I killed the apostle. Their plan will probably be delayed..."

"boom!"

"That's great!"

Upon hearing the good news, Czechlov excitedly slammed the table, his eyes full of excitement. Everyone was shocked by his crazy look.

He stood up and paced back and forth: "If that's the case, then we have enough time to prepare before the new apostles arrive!"

"Cili, go downstairs immediately and issue a mandatory mission. Everyone must gather in seven days and prepare to go to Liya Village to defeat the cultists. At the same time, use the message crystal to transmit messages to the surrounding towns, and finally send a call for help to the Imperial City!"

"Yes, sir!" Maid Sili nodded and immediately left the reception room and ran downstairs to issue the task.

After arranging everything, Czechlov returned to his seat and said embarrassedly:

"I'm really sorry to have embarrassed you, Your Majesty, but I'm really grateful to you this time. If the apostles hadn't been killed, I'm afraid they would have successfully sacrificed and summoned the old gods!"

"I just don't know which filthy god's followers they are. Of course, we won't let Her Highness risk her life again. This mandatory mission is a mandatory order for the Demon Hunters."

"You don't need to go again. If you need me, I will arrange soldiers and carriages to take you back to the imperial city safely tomorrow!"

Although what he meant was to completely exclude Lime from the mission and arrange various itineraries for her.

But the other person's eyes, which still contained a hint of hope, seemed to be begging Lime to stay.

Enzo also prayed in his heart that Lime could stay and be the offspring of the golden bloodline.

The royal family members themselves possess power beyond that of mortals and elves, and if lime is added, the losses will be greatly reduced.

Shihui didn't speak immediately. She picked up the teacup and took a sip, thinking quickly about the other party's intentions in her mind.

Are you saying this because I'm a princess?

If she stayed, the royal family would never let their princess be in danger.

I'm afraid they will send the most elite troops to help them in the crusade, so that the casualties and losses in Luther City can be minimized.

Even if I leave, the other party still does me a favor by sending troops to send me back when the city is about to be attacked.

Was he certain that he would feel guilty and ask the emperor for military support, or did he think that he would owe him a favor?

Either way, it won't do him any harm.

Does the other party want to gain benefits no matter what?

As expected of a man who can sit in the position of chairman, he can come up with so many ideas in such a short time.

What a disgusting and nauseating psychological game... Thinking of this, Shi Hui frowned slightly and then spoke:

"Then please send me back to the imperial city as soon as possible..."

Czechov had a slightly disappointed look on his face, but he still agreed with a smile and sent the lime to a mansion in the city center.
