Chapter 34 The Return of the Prince

The queen noticed his abnormality, but she thought it was caused by the two kings, and she was even more displeased with the old king and Libodi.In order to reconcile with his mother, Libodi had to invite his newly married queen, Meera, to join him.

Meera was born in a long-established aristocrat in Longzan, and was deeply loved by the queen.For her sake, the queen finally stopped being sullen when she met Libodi, but she gave her eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law a task—to make Neia happy.

In front of her, Libodi slapped his chest loudly, but when he turned his back, his smile immediately collapsed.He looked at his wise and virtuous wife pitifully, hoping she had some good ideas.

Most of what Meera knew about Neia came from other people's dictation, and she didn't have a good idea at the moment, so she decided to meet with Neia to find a solution.

It is very common for a newly married sister-in-law to visit her brother-in-law.Neia welcomed her and had a pleasant talk with her. He didn't realize that she came with a mission. In order to ensure the harmony of the family - he didn't want his elder brother to please his mother, but also to adjust his wife and his wife. Regarding his brother's relationship, he answered all of Meera's questions as detailed and kindly as possible.

The meeting was a success.

Neia felt that she had comforted the uneasiness of the new family member.

Meera also got what she wanted to know.

Afterwards, Mela and her husband opened a small unknown seminar, the members were very monotonous, one was her, the other was him, and there was no foreign aid.

Meera said, "Neia has something on her mind."

Libodi applauded: "This opening statement is really great, my dear! You gave me hope. Then tell me, what is on his mind?"

Meera said, "I don't know."

Libodi clapped harder: "Great! My dear, you had a secret conversation with my brother all afternoon, but you got an unknown result. I really..." He said in a strange tone, "You Are you really kidding me?"

Mela said: "I talked to him a lot about when you were young. In recent years, he quickly answered, and he has to think about it for a long time. But his memory is very good, even your eight-year-old bedwetting remember everything."

Libodi gritted his teeth: "His memory may be very good, but the relationship between him and his brother may be about to go wrong."

"I'm not kidding you."

"...I don't want to make fun of the embarrassing things about me when I was a child."

Meera stroked her husband's arm to help him calm down.

Libodi said, "Okay, dear, what are you going to say?"

Meera said: "I just want to prove that his memory is very good, especially in recent years, but when I asked about Dong Gemo, his answering speed slowed down significantly, and many places appeared "Uh", "maybe", "like" and "probably" are full of hypothetical and uncertain words. Some questions even evaded. The facial expression is also very unnatural. I think his thoughts should be the same as Dong Guimo's. related."

"Maybe the words of the three ministers of state put pressure on him," Libodi said.

"No." Meera said, "I didn't talk about it until after I asked Dong Gemo. I can obviously feel that he was relieved and welcomed me to change the subject. So I think the domestic public opinion has caused him The impact isn't huge."

Libodi was silent for a while and said, "What should I do?"

Meera asked, "What kind of result do you want?"

Libodi said: "What will be the result?"

Meera said: "You should know the attitude of the queen mother. If his concern is related to Dong Gemo, are you willing to pay for it?"

Libodi frowned.

Meera took his hands: "I'm just worried..."

"I understand what you mean." Libodi didn't let her speak out, "I know you care about me, but I don't want to escape because of fear of contradictions and facts before things happen. I'm just a worry now My brother's elder brother, I want to know the truth, I want to know what my brother, my most beloved brother, suffered in Dongguimo, I can't let him immerse himself in pain alone and ignore him like a coward Ask. Even if I cannot support him as a king, I am willing to support him as an elder brother."

Meera watched him without blinking, not at all annoyed that he had interrupted her.Libodi's words made her understand more clearly what an upright person her husband is, with a sense of responsibility and a soft heart.She is grateful to be married to someone with such a bright heart.

"I totally agree with you," she said, hugging him. "I'll talk to him again."

Libodi said: "Before that, let me talk to his friends. I must spare some time."

"His friend" in his mouth naturally refers to Harvey.With the identity of the little prince's savior, Harvey spent the past few days in Neia Castle quite comfortably.From the old king to the housekeeper, everyone regarded him as the most honored guest and tried their best to meet any of his requests.Harvey lived comfortably and never mentioned leaving.

Meera said: "To this friend, I think Neia's attitude is a bit strange."

"Why is it strange?"

"He seems a little reluctant to mention him." She thought for a while, "The tone is a little awed, but also a little vigilant and evasive. It's hard for me to describe. I think his identity may not be as simple as a lifesaver."

If Neia were here, she would definitely admire her sister-in-law's sensitivity.

Libodi said, "Then I want to see him even more."

Meera blurted out, "Be careful."

"Huh?" Libodi wondered.He was just talking to Harvey, not fighting, so why be careful?

Meera was also a little confused after she finished speaking, and she could only blame it on her brain twitch.

Libodi was very active, so he found an afternoon tea time the next day, and invited Harvey to drink tea in the garden.Harvey was picky about the tea and pastries for a long time, and finally sat down.

Before becoming king, Libodi's most well-known advantage was stability; after becoming king, his most well-known advantage is still stability.Therefore, communication is not his forte.Before coming to see Harvey, he didn't think it was such a difficult task. This was his confidence as the king of a country, but after meeting Harvey, he obviously felt that he lacked confidence.

A handsome dark-haired man.His sitting posture is not very elegant, but his gestures are full of chic and comfortable.His expression was not noble and glamorous at all, but it just made people afraid to look directly at him.

This, Libodi thought, was hell.

"The weather is really nice today." He started with a rather old-fashioned sentence.

Harvey said, "Hmm."

Libodi said, "Are you still used to the weather in Rangzam?"

Harvey raised his eyelids: "Can you adjust?"

"……cannot."

"so be it."

Libodi said: "Do you have any plans for the future?"

Harvey hooked his fingers on the handle of the cup, took a sip of tea slowly, and asked slowly, "Are you issuing an order to evict the guests?"

"Of course not." Libodi said, "I just want to express my gratitude. For all you have done to Neia. I am not a responsible brother. I was not by his side when he was in pain, and when he was helpless. I prioritized the country."

Harvey said, "Is this a last word?"

"..." Libodi said, "I hope to compensate Neia."

Harvey said: "I don't like the word compensation."

Libodi asked, "What happened to Neia in Dongguimo?"

Harvey said, "It's not what you think."

Libodi was taken aback, and was about to continue asking, when Harvey said to himself: "Is the tone of my speech very gentle?"

"It's okay." He replied inexplicably.

Harvey touched his chin: "It's not bad."

Libodi: "..." Shouldn't it be possible?

Hardy didn't give him a chance to continue asking, he stood up and left on his own, leaving the poor King Langzan sitting alone, frozen in the movement of waving towards his back.

Neia's room was just above Harvey's.

Harvey entered his room through the window.

Neia hugged her knees in a daze, and when she turned her head, she saw Harvey sitting on the window sill, with one foot on the window sill and the other drooping.

"You should knock on the door when you come in." Neia said subconsciously.

Harvey tapped with his fingers.

Sure enough, there was a knock on the door.

Neia: "..."

Harvey reminded him: "Aren't you going to open the door?"

Neia asked, "Do you need it?"

Harvey said: "Who knows? Maybe someone just happened to knock on the door."

Neia was skeptical, walking to the door and opening it with the idea that she would rather believe it.

"Good afternoon." Harvey leaned against the door frame and waved to him.

Neia: "..."

Harvey squeezed in the door: "It's the first time I visited your room, and your room is really well furnished. I like your pillow, which is stained with the smell of your hair. I like your quilt, which still has your body temperature. I like you……"

Neia said, "What exactly do you want to say?"

"You interrupted me just in time. I know you like to listen to me, I like you." Harvey glanced at him with a smile.

Neia: "..."

Harvey said: "The quality of your smile has seriously declined recently. It's okay to make me sad, and it also caused King Longzan's extreme panic."

Neia asked, "What do you mean?"

Harvey said: "You must not have looked in the mirror these days, you should look at your haggard face. Your sad face is like a steel comb that keeps scratching my heart—if I have that thing You don’t have to look at me like that, after all, no one can dissect yourself for fun. I mean, your resentment is so strong that even your brother can’t stand it.”

Neia asked in surprise, "Brother Wang?"

Harvey said: "I'm also surprised. You know that he doesn't spend more time here than he spends in the bathroom every day, right? So, there is only one word to describe you now, full of resentment."

"..." Neia said, "I have no complaints."

"Yes. For example, grievances." Harvey opened his arms, "I am willing to heal the scars on your heart."

Neia said: "I'm just hesitating whether to tell them about Dong Gemo or not."In the end, the person he could talk to turned out to be Harvey.

Harvey said: "What will happen after I say it?"

Ning Ya said, "Brother Wang will take some precautionary measures."

"For example?" Harvey pretended to listen respectfully.

Neia pursed her lips.

Harvey shrugged and said: "The times are always advancing. After a few months, I think your brother Wang may have figured out some way to deal with the gods."

Neia glared at him.

Harvey said: "My tone is very sincere."

"You don't want me to tell the others?"

Harvey answered honestly: "I don't want to." In his plan, humans don't need to appear so early.

Neia frowned.

Harvey said: "Don't you think there is someone more suitable to solve this problem than your brother king who has just taken office?"

Neia stared at him in disbelief: "You?"

Harvey was displeased: "Why do you use a questioning tone?"

"You are a god."

"There is no doubt." It is still the king of gods.

"Why would you help us?"

Harvey smiled and said, "Because I like you."

Neia blushed, and rationally told him that this sentence could not be taken seriously, but her heart still beat fast a few times.

Harvey held out his hand to him: "Trust me."

Neia looked at his hand for a long time before she reached out and was about to hold it when Harvey suddenly slapped the back of his hand and said to Neia who was stunned: "How can you make your future husband wait like this?" How long? Not virtuous at all."

……

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look reliable.

Neia, who decided to bake freshly in less than 3 minutes, immediately regretted it.He said, "I still decided to tell Brother Wang."

Harvey: "..."

Neia said, "At least, he can arrange for everyone to evacuate."

Harvey said: "When the Dream Continent falls, where else can we escape?"

Ning Ya said: "An extra day is a day." This sentence came out of feeling.When he was imprisoned in the silver palace, when he was hungry and thirsty to the extreme, a god of hope and a god of death would appear in his head.The Grim Reaper tempted him to die, to be free from pain.But God of Hope kept encouraging him, allowing him to persevere day after day.He is very grateful to the god of hope in his head, without her, he would never have survived until now.

Harvey frowned, raised and released his right hand several times, and finally took it back.

Harvey's attitude made Neia directly interpret it as acquiescence.He found Libodi that night and told the truth about what happened in Dongguimo.After Libodi listened to it, it took him a long time to digest it before he understood everything.

He looked at his younger brother, still unable to accept that he had a relationship with the gods, and was even considered by one of the gods to be the goddess of light.

……

Goddess of Light!

If the God of Light knew about it, he would definitely...

What will happen?

Libodi felt his imagination had run dry.

He sat on the chair and didn't move for a long time.

Neia was uneasy.He was afraid that Libodi would think he was insane.If it wasn't for a dark god by his side, he might have regarded Dong Guimo's experience as a dream after returning to Langzan.

Libodi took a deep breath: "So, the friend who saved you is the God of Darkness?"

Neia nodded.

Libodi said, "A god has appeared in our castle?"

"...he's still a god king."

"God King?"

"The younger brother of the Goddess of Light."

"The younger brother of the Goddess of Light?" Libodi's language function has degraded to the point where he can only repeat.

Neia said, "He is currently on our side."

Libodi held his head and digested for a while, and finally returned to the role of the king: "According to what you said, can I understand that sooner or later the gods will come out of Donggui Desert to compete for the Dream Continent?"

Neia nodded.

Libodi said: "The God of Slaughter who captured you is just one of them."

Neia nodded.

Libodi pondered for a while longer.After the conversation started, he was silent much more than talking.But Neia didn't interrupt him... He knew how difficult it was to accept such news, and if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe it easily.It was a surprise that Libodi was willing to face up to his own words.

"How did the Dark God treat you?" Libodi asked.

Neia replied cautiously: "For now, it's okay."

Libodi said: "He is at odds with the gods and is the younger brother of the goddess of light. Can he be classified as human?"

Neia was not as optimistic as he was: "He doesn't get along with the Goddess of Light."

"..." Libodi said, "Siblings don't have an overnight feud."

Neia said: "Not including Harvey. He is quite..." Careful, vengeful, poisonous... Neia saw a black air outside the window.Even though it was dark, after spending so many days with the black air, I was already familiar with it to the point where I could feel where it was with my eyes closed, so I would not miss it, so a series of truths became tactful when they came to my lips Arise, "God who thinks."

Libodi seemed to realize something.

Ning Ya said: "We are currently in a cooperative relationship. He made us trust him."

Libodi stood up, patted Neia on the shoulder, wanted to say something like thank you, but was too ashamed to say it.It is obviously a matter related to the entire Dream Continent human beings, why do you want your younger brother to bear the pressure.However, he also knew that apart from Neia, there was no other person who could take his place - recognized by the God of Slaughter as the Goddess of Light Rice, and also favored by the God of Darkness.He felt sorry for his younger brother, but he didn't have the ability and position to object.

"Be careful." He said, "If one day, you are really tired, come back."

He didn't say that he was a backer, because in front of God, even the king of a country has nothing to rely on.But, at least they are family and can be together, life or death, success or failure.

Neia gritted her teeth, suppressing the tears that were about to burst out, and nodded with a smile.

The black air outside the window was sticking to the window, watching the two people in the room embrace each other, circled around several times unhappily until one of them left the room.

Harvey lived in Longzan for a long time, so long that when Neia thought that he regarded Neia Castle as his residence, he proposed to leave.

Neia asked in astonishment, "Where are you going?"

"Santu."

Neia frowned.The memories it brought him there were not very good.

Harvey looked at him expectantly: "Go together?"

Neia hesitated.Emotionally, shaking the head is a must.He never thought of revisiting the place where his heart was cut.But reason told him that nodding was a must.Now, the only one who can solve the problem of the gods of Dongguimo is the Darkness God, and I must hold his thigh tightly and not waver!

Harvey originally thought that Neia would definitely go with him without saying a word, but when he saw him hesitate, he immediately became unhappy. "You want to separate from me?"

Neia came back to her senses: "No, it's not, I'm afraid that it will drag you down."

Harvey said: "Oh, drag me down?"

Neia immediately felt that his tone was wrong, and as expected, Harvey appeared behind Neia in an instant and hugged him into his arms: "Who can threaten me?"

Neia said, "I'll go with you."

"It's fine if you don't want to, a twisted melon is not sweet." Harvey said so, but he didn't let go of his hand.

Neia: "..."

Harvey said: "My recent memory is not very good."

Neia said, "Can you forget the conversation I had with you just now and start over again?"

"Ok?"

"It's the part where you asked me if I want to go with you."

……

Harvey instantly returned to his previous position, looked at Neia, and said, "I'm going to Santu, come with me?"

"Follow!" Neia replied quickly.

Harvey was happy, hehehehe laughed.

Neia laughed along.

Harvey said calmly: "You interrupted my train of thought just now."

Neia: "..."

Harvey said: "But the follow-up is very happy, so I will forgive you."

"……thanks."

Harvey said: "What I just wanted to say is that although my memory is not very good, I vaguely remember that the God of Light will have a large library. There are not many other books, but one category is definitely the first in the mainland."

Neia's heart beat rapidly.

"About God."

Neia proposed to travel far away with Harvey, but the queen firmly disagreed.The youngest son who was finally found, she must put it in front of her and watch it.If you can't see him one day, you have to find a safe person by your side, Harvey... She doesn't know his details yet, but out of a woman's intuition, she doesn't think he is a person worth relying on for life.At this time, she thought of the dwarf again.

"It would be great if that Harvey was here." She sighed, "It's a pity that he disappeared after you went to Donggemo. We have always suspected that he went to find you. Have you seen him?"

Neia: "..." Actually, he did look for him, and he did meet him, and he is here now.

Of course, the queen was not very satisfied with the dwarf, and she mentioned him only because he was not here.

This time the king also joined the queen's lobbying team to persuade Neia to stay. He also said that if he wanted to learn magic, he could follow Hope.After what happened last time, Hope decided to stay in Xiaobei City, and opened a magic school with Timothy, which is currently recruiting new students.As a former student of St. Padres Academy of Magic, Neia is fully qualified.
