My cousin is becoming a legend.

"Two years!?"

Blake was quite surprised.

He thought this kid was a low-key person, but he didn't expect him to give him such a shock here.

Violet hesitated upon hearing this, wanting to say something but then stopping herself.

She was also a little confused.

The Lynn she knew wasn't the kind of person who would act tough just for a moment's pleasure.

But now that he has suddenly said such a thing, she is a little unsure of what to do.

Could he be serious?

The father and daughter remained silent for a moment.

Lynn gave a bitter smile to himself.

Two years...

If we weren't afraid of scaring them, this time could even be shortened.

After all, the only limitations on his alchemy skills were his mental strength and proficiency.

In the Kingdom of Uma, he could reach a level close to that of a second-tier alchemist in less than a month. In this country where alchemy is legal, the rate of improvement would probably be even faster.

Moreover, his own time is indeed quite limited, and he cannot afford to waste too much time at the academy.

Tina may only have fourteen years left.

He must become stronger quickly.

Even now, he doesn't plan to stay at the academy for too long.

Lynn planned to do three things at the college.

First, read all the books about the Eldar in the library.

Second, officially upgrade the Alchemist attribute to level 2.

Third, upgrade the levels of the Warrior, Mage, and Shadow Scout to ten stars.

After completing these three tasks, he prepared to go on an adventure.

One reason is to evolve the extraordinary entries, and the other is to find the forbidden mercury.

Lynn was thinking just that.

Blake cleared his throat.

"Lynn, there's really no need for you to be in such a hurry."

But since you've already made a promise, I won't say anything more.

Two years from now, I'll be waiting for your good grades.

"I won't let you down," Lynn replied.

Blake nodded and said nothing more.

No matter how much you say, it's useless.

Let the facts speak for themselves.

The group continued flying at high speed in the sky.

Lynn looked down at Tina, who was sleeping peacefully in his arms.

He was somewhat worried.

How long is this girl going to sleep?

Perhaps when the king arrives, he should have Violet find a doctor to examine her.

......

One day later.

The griffin is gradually descending its altitude.

The entire capital city gradually came into view.

Lynn was somewhat shocked.

It truly lives up to its reputation as the capital city.

It's absolutely luxurious and exquisite.

The city walls were built of pure white marble, making them exquisite and tall.

The city is divided into distinct areas, and most importantly, the buildings in each area are incredibly exquisite, like something out of a fairy tale.

As for its area, it surpasses that of any city Lynn has ever seen before.

Compared to this place, Nareel is practically the countryside.

The capital city alone is probably equivalent to dozens of Nareel cities in terms of area!

"Isn't it beautiful? This is the heart of Iporto."

Violet proudly introduced the beautiful city.

Lynn nodded subconsciously, his eyes fixed on the city.

He really wanted to wake Tina up so she could see this spectacular view too.

Just as he was thinking this, Lynn suddenly noticed a rather strange place in the city.

He frowned, staring intently at the castle in the very center of the capital.

That must be the Queen's castle.

But why does it look a bit grayish?

They were so poor they could be described as shabby.

This gray fortress is completely out of place with the surrounding buildings; it's like two different worlds.

Is this really the Queen's castle?

Lynn told Violet about his doubts.

Violet's expression became somewhat unnatural upon hearing this.

She glanced at her father in front of her, then hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

She whispered, "The reason is rather complicated. I'll explain it to you in detail when I go downstairs."

Lynn nodded in confusion.

Soon, the griffin landed on an open space outside the city.

During peacetime, flying is prohibited within the city for anyone except the Queen.

Blake jumped straight down.

Violet also took Lynn and Tina down with her.

Lynn told Violet about the trouble of finding a doctor for Tina.

Violet had no objection.

She gave a few instructions to the maid who was already waiting there.

Tina was then put into a carriage and taken away.

Blake was also preparing to go into town on business, but it wasn't on the same route as Violet.

Before parting, Blake gave Violet a few words of advice with concern.

"Pretend you know nothing until news reaches Uma. I'll handle the rest, understand?"

Violet nodded impatiently, pushing forward against her father's back.

"Oh, Dad, don't worry about it. Your daughter is at least half a spy! You don't need to worry about me with these kinds of things. Lynn and I still have to see Her Majesty the Queen!"

Blake nodded, still uneasy.

Before leaving, he glanced at Lynn, his eyes filled with resentment and sharpness.

Lynn felt a chill run down his spine and gave an awkward laugh.

"Hehe, see you next time, Earl."

Lynn waved.

Send Blake away.

Lynn and Violet boarded a carriage and officially headed to the center of the royal capital.

He is about to meet Queen Sirnus.

Lynn took a deep breath.

He was somewhat expectant.

I wonder what kind of person Her Majesty the Queen is?

Since she is the highest leader of the Restoration Society, she is probably a serious and rational person.

Of course, he is also an ambitious person.

Otherwise, how could they possibly accept a grassroots organization like the Restoration Society?

Lynn looked forward to the meeting while glancing out the car window at the scenery.

But after watching for a while, he got a little bored.

Aside from being wealthier, urban life in this world seems pretty much the same everywhere.

Violet, standing to the side, slowly began to speak.

"Just now in the sky, you asked me why Her Majesty's castle seemed out of place, right?"

Lynn perked up and nodded.

Violet slowly explained the reason.

"The reason is actually quite simple. Her Majesty the Queen is very frugal and unwilling to spend money on meaningless things. If she wanted to, repairing the castle wouldn't be a problem at all. But..."

At this point, Violet gave a cold laugh.

"As the queen of a kingdom, she had no need to be so frugal. It's all because of the wolfish ambitions of these disloyal ministers!"

Now, these nobles are paying less and less tax each year, while their necessary expenses are increasing year by year.

In their eyes, Her Majesty the Queen was merely a shield at the forefront, her only task being to survive, while they hid behind her, constantly indulging in pleasure.

Lynn was taken aback.

Something seems off.

Although he quickly grasped the Queen's current situation, there was now clearly a problem.

Take Emperor Xian of Han at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty as an example.

If the Queen's current situation is similar to that of Emperor Xian of Han, with various feudal lords harboring rebellious intentions but also having reasons to maintain appearances and not harm the emperor.

The necessary condition here is the decline of the royal family and the inability of the central government to control the troops in various regions.

But now these nobles are actually relying on the Queen to protect them on the one hand, while secretly bullying the royal family on the other!

What's going on?

In any world, there is no situation where the weak can bully the strong, right?

Lynn voiced his inner doubts.

Violet's expression was somewhat complicated.

"That's not surprising, considering Her Majesty the Queen..."

"He's just a second-tier superhuman."
