Chapter 325 Royal Summons
Unable to actually practice, the rest of the team, either with mentors or with relevant skill books, were learning new skills on their own. Bored, Qiu Chief walked around the room for a bit before deciding to check on his two sisters.
Of course, Chief Qiu mainly wanted to check on Etia's body again to see if the condition recurred after a period of treatment like before.
"Sister, tell me, when can we go back home?"
"My home is not far from heaven, but I can't go back because my father was attacked and disappeared."
"Besides, I've sent Bluebird to Brother Kai many times, but he hasn't replied to me."
Before Qiu Chief opened the door to the room where Etia lived, he could hear Etia confessing to Charlotte from inside the room.
"I'm worried about my father too, but the territory is in danger, ah~"
"Sister, do you know?"
"Actually, our family used to have a big house in heaven."
"But because I was treated, alas~"
"Squeak~"
Qiu Qiu listened outside for a while, and when he opened the door, he saw the two sisters sitting on the bed with sad faces.
"Don't worry, sisters. Your father should be safe."
"After all, up to now, you haven't received any new information from Kai."
"The enemy probably hasn't succeeded yet, so let's hold off for now and wait for your father to return."
Chief Qiu couldn't bear to see his two sisters sad here, so he made up a reason to persuade them. But Chief Qiu knew that the enemy had no movement, which might mean that they had already succeeded.
"Since your family's territory is very close to here, I will go over and take a look after the royal summons is over."
Seeing that his previous persuasion did not seem to have much effect and the two sisters did not respond, Qiu thought about it and came up with another idea.
"Brother, it will be very dangerous for you to go there alone."
"Don't worry, Etia. I can fly, brother."
"If I encounter an enemy, I can just fly away."
Chief Qiu looked at Etia, who was worried about him, and smiled, then gave his own solution. Obviously, when it came to his relatives, Chief Qiu knew that Etia had lost his composure.
"Then, brother, please be careful."
"Brother, thank you!"
The two sisters felt much better and even hugged Chief Qiu's left and right hands.
And the day passed quietly as everyone waited.
The next day, while they were having breakfast together in the hall, they finally received news from Klind.
However, the person who came was not Klind, but another royal city guard wearing fine armor.
"With a little elf and a hound as pets, there are also orcs and elves in the team."
"It seems that these are the people."
Before the guard even got close to Chief Qiu and his men, he was already muttering in the distance. Unfortunately, he underestimated Chief Qiu and his men's rank, so even though he was quite far away, Chief Qiu and his men could still hear everything clearly.
"Hello, adventurers."
"I am Raul, the Royal City's Royal Guard. You are the adventurers that Klind, the Royal City's elite soldier, mentioned."
With the news they had heard earlier, Qiu Chief and his group were not disturbed. Combined with what Raul had said before, Qiu Chief and his group also knew that the time they had been waiting for had finally come.
"Hello, Guard Raul."
"Excuse me, is it the royal family that wants to summon our adventuring team?"
As the team's intelligent brain, Angelica stopped eating and started communicating with Raul.
"Yes, His Majesty the King is waiting for you to come over."
"The carriage is ready outside. Adventurers, please go over."
"By the way, there's some food in the carriage."
"If you adventurers are not full, you can eat more in the car."
Raul spoke politely to Chief Qiu and the others. But from what he said, it was clear that he hadn't considered whether Chief Qiu and the others would refuse. However, Raul was aware of the current situation and offered a few kind words.
"Everyone, let's go."
"Little cutie, there are a few masters here, I'll trouble you at home."
After Angelica finished speaking, she took the lead and boarded a luxurious carriage at the front outside.
"Brother Qiuqiu, you and Charlotte should go to the car in front."
As soon as Angelica got in the carriage, she stopped Qiu, who was about to go to the carriage behind, because she saw that Qiu was planning to slack off. As for calling Charlotte, it was because Angelica discovered that Charlotte's family had a very important position in heaven.
Angelica had spent most of yesterday preparing for this meeting. Using the Red Bird communication tool, she frequently asked her junior sister Tara to help her search for information about the Holy Heaven royal family and other factions.
Then, she unexpectedly discovered that Charlotte and Etia's family, the Eustia family, had once been nearly as powerful as Grand Duke Stuart. Grand Duke Stuart was the current king's uncle, and since King Cassius was very young, perhaps only twelve years old, the king's orders were mostly directed by his uncle. In a sense, Grand Duke Stuart wielded the majority of the current royal power.
Fortunately, the previous King Cassius, fearing his only brother might harm his only son, Cassius the Younger, had left behind a loyal general, Douglas. With immense military power, Douglas served not only as a check on Stuart but also as a vital force for protecting Cassius the Younger. The guards guarding the Sacred Heaven, as well as the imperial palace guards, obeyed only Douglas's orders and Cassius the Younger's.
However, the Eustia family vanished from the Holy Heavens before King Cassius the Younger was even born, leaving only a name for themselves among the former high-ranking officials of the kingdom. Upon hearing this, Angelica realized that while the Eustia family's reputation was great, it was likely not as prominent as that of Grand Duke Stuart at the time.
However, these two prominent figures at the highest levels of the kingdom were both aware of the Eustia family. They had already reached their current status when the Eustia family was at its peak of fame. When meeting the king, no one could wear combat gear, so they chose the most exquisite attire possible. Charlotte's clothing bore the family's distinctive crest. Angelica also hoped to leverage the Eustia family's former fame to bring some unexpected benefit to her group's actions.
While intrigue is inevitable within the upper echelons of the royal family, and the disappearance of the Eustia family might be related to this struggle, Angelica had consulted with Etia about the family's situation and learned that until their father's recent mishap, the family had been peaceful and untouched by the royal family. Based on this, Angelica felt that this would not backfire.
The news that Chief Qiu had overheard outside the door was also some of the family's past that Etia learned about shortly after Angelica communicated with Etia.
There was no conversation along the way. Chief Qiu and his group arrived outside the palace in a carriage.
