A strange world

Chapter 682 Chapter 79. The Crimson Princess Enters the City

"If you were looking for a human partner normally, you wouldn't be kissed like this..."

Itilia looked at the symmetrical tooth marks on Annan's face who came back and sighed.

"This is...a wound from an attack."

Itilia didn't believe Annan's lies: "By whom?"

"the wanted."

"You want to say that you were invited by the fake princess to welcome the nobles from the southern countries into the city, and were attacked by wanted criminals, leaving two tooth marks on your face?"

"Um!"

Idilia had no intention of pursuing the matter, so Annan put on a gray robe and asked the mage of the city guard for free treatment, otherwise he would have to miss tonight's grand banquet.

Tonight's banquet should be attended by a large number of female relatives...

Annan did not dress up deliberately. He was still wearing a mage's robe, but only wore black gemstone earrings. Under the illumination of the light, the black gemstones sparkle with a mysterious luster that makes people want to explore--along with Annan.

"Sister, do you want to come with me?"

"I won't disturb you anymore." Itilia made a rare joke.

Annan really didn't have time to take care of Itilia. After leaving the lemon in the warehouse, he took a car to the city lord's palace.

Before heading to the banquet hall, he first went to the fake princess's place. The butler was standing not far away as usual, nothing unusual.

The fake princess did not dress up specially. She still had no makeup and a white dress. Even though she lacked the temperament of a real princess, she could still easily become the focus of the banquet with her beauty.

"Let's go." Annan said.

Annan was already familiar with how to attend the banquet. The princess followed him and said softly: "The princess said she would rush to Huadu tonight, and I hope you can pick her up."

"Where I am..."

Annan thought about Itilia, Klein and the princess, they should not reveal their secrets.

Moreover, revealing her background bit by bit can help Scarlet Princess get used to it. By the way, she can also be invited to watch "The Fall of the Mage Tower" again, and then she can be fooled into spending 600 gold coins to buy three types of magic stones...

"I'll pick her up."

But Annan remembered one thing: "Many of the big shots coming tonight will know the real princess..."

"What should I do?" The fake princess grabbed Annan's arm nervously.

Annan didn't know if the disguise of the fake princess could deceive the legend... It should be possible, otherwise the princess would have been discovered by Huadu. But it’s too easy for a fake princess without the memory of a princess to reveal her secrets, just like Annan who played Valencia back then...

"Think about what a real princess would do?"

Annan took out his arm.

The fake princess kept calm: "The real princess... I don't need to attend this banquet."

"That's okay too."

The fake princess returned, and Annan came to the banquet hall alone and told the deputy city lord waiting outside the door: "The princess does not want to attend..."

The deputy city lord showed regret and led Annan into the banquet.

As Annan appeared, many girls who took the initiative had gathered around. The deputy city lord reluctantly squeezed out. Their screams and shouts attracted a lot of attention.

Not far away, a group of really big shots were looking over here.

"Today's young people are confusing." The old lord from Bauhinia Collar lamented.

"I think he looks familiar..." said the calm man next to him.

"Annan Reeves, a small lord from Middle-earth, somehow became the Queen's Knight. Not long ago, he brought the Ring of Lost City to purify Lost City." The Lord of Huadu City introduced.

"So it's him? Young people nowadays are so powerful, no wonder they are so popular..." the old lord smiled.

"It's not because of this, but because of the magical image." The Lord of Huadu carefully considered his words: "It's similar to a stage play. He plays a male protagonist named 'Jack'."

"Magic image..."

The man felt that familiarity becoming more and more clear.

The female relatives who just entered the city today don't know who Annan is, but they are just curious about why this boy is so popular - although he does have this qualification.

Colette and Rosella stood in an unnoticed corner, looking quietly at the bustling side.

"This one is very popular right now~" Rosella asked softly, "Should we go there? I will hide it from my father..."

Colette withdrew her gaze and said calmly: "Since I promised uncle, I will not go back on my word."

Rosella said with a hint of heartache: "Don't blame him...Uncle Valencia passed away, we must maintain the continuation of the family..."

On the other side, Annan escaped from the sea of ​​fragrance that was richer than flowers and came to the terrace to get some fresh air. He also wrote down their names in a notebook before he forgot them.

Surrounded by enthusiastic girls again...

The gathered nobles are talking about business, and Annan is also doing his own business - it is roughly estimated that after tonight's banquet, more than a dozen more magic stones will be sold tomorrow...

After the banquet, Annan, who dragged his exhausted body, used cleaning techniques to clean up the smell on his body, and rushed outside the city at midnight to greet the Crimson Princess.

On the outskirts of Huadu, Annan was sitting in the car looking at the stars. At a certain moment, the sound of flapping wings came from above his head. Annan raised his head and saw a piece of bat turning into a fluffy crimson dress and landing lightly in front of Annan.

Just as Princess Crimson was about to speak, she suddenly came closer to Annan, took a sniff, and asked doubtfully, "Why do you smell so good?"

Annan didn't believe in the cleaning technique and even let her smell it: "There are flowers everywhere in the city. It won't be long before you will be like me."

"I don't need it." Crimson Princess puffed her lips, "David, where is the news about my queen mother?"

"I don't know more. Let's go find the princess first." Annan said, sitting in the coachman's seat.

Princess Crimson stood in front of the carriage and looked at him silently.

Annan had no choice but to get out of the car first, lift up the crimson princess' catkins and send her into the carriage, pick up the reins and return to Huadu.

As the celebration approaches, the curfew has been lifted in Huadu. There are many more pedestrians at night and there are many more guards...

Before Annan could drive out of the street in front of the city gate, they were suddenly stopped by a group of guards, who surrounded the carriage with silverware aimed at vampires.

"Don't come out..." Annan whispered to the Scarlet Princess in the carriage, watching the guard captain approaching with a torch.

"Why is it you again?" He recognized Annan - the queen knight who stayed with a group of wanted criminals during the day.

"I said there was a deep meaning in doing this."

The guard captain scanned the carriage behind him: "Vampires too?"

"Um."

Annan wondered how they knew it was a vampire. Could it be that because the big shots came to the city, the city guard's inspections became stricter?

The captain of the guard looked embarrassed, and Annan told him: "If you can't make the decision, just ask the princess, and she will tell you the reason."

The guard captain breathed a sigh of relief: "Please wait a moment, I will send someone to the City Lord's Mansion now..."

"No need to go to such trouble, we are about to go there, you can lead the team and follow us."
