Kingdom’s Bloodline

The most incompatible thing in this world is probably that there is an extra Exeter in the banquet of the stars.

Still a no-nonsense one.

Reminded by Thales' wink, Glover and Doyle urged him to invite him, and finally pulled the bearded Jorge, who was bewildered, to a corner outside the hall, to get rid of the curiosity and inquiry of the surrounding guests. gaze.

"If you want me to say that you southerners are just looking for trouble when you have nothing to do, and you get crazy when you say the wrong name..."

Jorge complained relentlessly.

"I used to write the request letter from the Grand Duke to King Nun as 'Respected King of Dragon Cloud City', and I didn't see what the Born King did to me, so I still donated money and efforts to help us suppress the bandits, sir. It's..."

Doyle pouted, Glover looked away.

Even though he was as unrestrained and unrestrained as the former, and as quiet and introverted as the latter, he still didn't get used to the casualness and rudeness of this guest.

Only Thales smiled while listening to the other party's rude and heavy northern accent.

It is indeed rare to hear such an accent in the well-organized Mindis Hall and the banquet moments full of etiquette.

It was as if he had returned to the high-spirited, rough and direct North.

I saw Jorge, the officer in charge, laughed and said:

"Haha, maybe you forgot, Polaris, but we've met before!"

Thales said suspiciously:

"when?"

"Wow, you're so forgetful, aren't you?"

Listening to the other party's carefree tone, apart from being abrupt, Thales actually had a strange sense of intimacy.

But he is obviously just a passerby of Exeter.

Here, Star Kingdom, Eternal Star City, this is his home, isn't it?

Jorge was in high spirits:

"A few years ago at the Dragon Clouds Hunting Ceremony, the little girl from the Walton family held your hand—hey, you are so bold—the boys from the Northland present all became sour and became They rush up in groups, wanting to compete with you in a friendly duel..."

Thales' expression changed suddenly.

Jorge was very happy, and he spit all over the place:

"The scene was chaotic and noisy. Maybe others didn't see it, but I have sharp eyes. She hid you in her skirt..."

Thales' face turned pale.

Regardless of the face of the guards behind him, he rushed forward in twos and threes, grabbing Jorge's waving big hand.

"Ah! Thank you! Jorge is an officer!"

Thales interrupted the other party passionately and moved.

"I can really feel the pride and generosity of Elk City!"

He shook Jorge's hand vigorously, wishing sincerely that he would stop talking.

Jorge was startled for a moment, then lowered his head with narrowed eyes, with a look of understanding on his face.

Thales felt even more depressed.

As an audience member, Doyle arched Glover playfully, but unfortunately the latter just frowned, not intending to share his interest.

"hey-hey,

By the way, let's talk about this. "

Jorge naturally put his arms around the Duke's shoulders, whispering like a good buddy:

"Grand Duke Gadro has a son——Igor is the heir of Elk City. He is a good boy. Among the gifts I brought are the seal skins and bear skins he hunted. You are of equal status and are all talented. We should be able to talk..."

With an encouraging face, the officer shook the prince vigorously:

"You're going to love him!"

Thales was shaken so badly that even his smirk was distorted:

"Igor, right? I guess I will..."

But Jorge squinted and smiled:

"But it's not enough. You must know that the Grand Duke has three daughters..."

Telston felt bad.

"Although the first one has been married twice, she is a good childbearing man. I guarantee that you will have a group of children before you are twenty, and your descendants will have no worries..."

"The second one is more powerful. She is proficient in bowing horses and piercing Yang with a hundred steps. Even veterans will give her a thumbs up. With her on the bed, you don't have to arrange guards to stay overnight..."

Thales' smile gradually froze.

"The third, the third..."

Jorge stuck his shell for a while, hesitated for a moment, and then hesitated:

"Yeah, yeah, it's okay..."

The officer immediately patted Duke Xinghu on the shoulder in a "Northern" way, and cut Thales's perfect haircut when he was fleeing, and the perfect hairstyle that he managed to grow back after returning to China was in a mess:

"I know, you grew up with our northern wind, you must prefer hard ones..."

"How about it?"

Jorge's eyes lit up:

"Think about it?"

The prince forced a smile with difficulty.

It took Thales several minutes to barely escape Jorge's enthusiasm, invite the bear-like guest back to the banquet hall, and promise to change him to a bigger seat.

The guards who accompanied the prince had funny expressions.

Mallos, who had been silent all this time, stepped forward and reminded the prince of the list of guests he was going to greet in person, but after speaking...

"By the way, about the story he told, you know, the one you hid under your skirt..." The watchman hesitated.

Thales, who has always been easy-going, looked up instantly.

With a fierce expression, he chooses people and devours them.

"Don't ask," the Duke of Xinghu gritted his teeth:

"You are still my favorite captain of the personal guard."

Mallos narrowed his eyes, with a look of understanding, and thoughtfully saluted:

"Then, I will arrange other things first, and I hope you enjoy the banquet."

Looking at the back of the other party turning away, Thales sighed angrily.

"Your Highness..." Doyle's voice came from behind.

Thales was still vigilant, and his eyebrows were cold.

"Don't worry, I, I won't ask..."

I saw D.D shaking his hand awkwardly:

"I just want to say that I understand very well. I have also experienced that kind of bad situation..."

"Cough—cough heh!"

Glover on the other side seemed to have a cold, and coughed repeatedly, interrupting Doyle's nonsense:

"Cough cough cough cough!"

Doyle silenced his voice, but Thales' expression turned even worse.

All right.

Thales pulled his head back stiffly, feeling gloomy.

When he becomes king, the first thing he will do is to march north...

Killed Exeter.

They walked back in silence.

"Yankees, cough... are all the Northlanders in Exeter like this?" Doyle finally brought up a less embarrassing topic.

Thales nodded sullenly.

"Half yes."

"As for the other half..."

At this moment, a voice full of surprise and excitement came from the side:

"Thals Canxing!"

All three were shocked.

Amidst the footsteps and shouts, in the corridor in the distance, Zoneveld and Piloga of the Star Lake Guard firmly stopped a guest who wanted to rush towards the prince - the latter waved his hands, trying to get close to Thales. no.

Thales looked at the other person's appearance - Qi Er's pot head - with a sense of inexplicable familiarity.

Until he saw the shining blade emblem on the guest's clothing.

"It's a pleasure to meet you in Levi Trudida, the son of Grand Duke Zhazota." The guest smiled obsequiously, speaking the same familiar Northland accent, but the accent was much lighter than Jorge's.

Rebuild Tower, Trudida?

This is interesting.

Another Jarhead, who was much more mature and cunning, with even more imposing manner and majesty, appeared in his memory.

Thales nodded, and asked the guards to let go of this unruly Northlander who came to the door without guidance, and let him approach.

"Is Levi right?"

Thales squeezed out his iconic social smile: "I know your father, Grand Duke Trudida..."

"What a coincidence," Levi squinted and smiled:

"I know him too."

Thales was silent for a while about the bad joke.

Little Trudida?

He looked at the fake smile on Levi's face and the light in his eyes.

Well, it's my own, that's right.

"Very well, please take it to your father for me."

Thales sighed, determined not to pester him anymore:

"Hope you enjoy the feast."

The prince turned and left.

"Your Highness!"

Levi spoke eagerly.

But Zoneveld behind him pressed the opponent's shoulder firmly, with an obvious warning.

Thales turned around.

"I know you are busy, so, well, I'll get straight to the point." Levi sighed, with a desperate expression on his face.

Thales blinked.

Under the noisy background of the banquet, Levi narrowed his eyes:

"You know, it's not easy for me to come here. I was going to buy some souvenirs to take home, but I ran into some troubles... The damn market bureaucrats conspired with the merchants, not to mention raising prices, and deliberately looking for trouble..."

"Souvenir?" Thales was taken aback.

"You know, travel," Levi shrugged like a spoiled son:

"Buy some of this, some of that, and bring some specialties."

"Special products?" Thales raised his eyebrows.

Levi smiled awkwardly:

"It's nothing, just something to eat, wear, and play with."

"Eat?" Thales' tone became more suspicious.

He stared at each other.

"Yes, I like eating the most." Levi still smiled:

"I just need the convenience of some local officials..."

Thales looked at him for a few seconds.

"It can't be done."

Damn Northlanders.

Thales said coldly:

"I'm just a newcomer, a prince who cultivates his body and mind."

After Thales finished speaking, he turned around again, and Levi hurriedly spoke again:

"I know I know!"

"But don't worry, Your Highness, you don't have to do anything! Don't do anything!"

Thales looked at him questioningly.

Levi got rid of Zoneveld's restraint, ignoring the other's disgusted expression:

"At the banquet later, just let me stand by your side for a while, and it looks like you can talk and laugh. The official who troubled me is also present today, and he wants to get close to you."

Levi looked at Thales eagerly.

"Sorry," Thales shook his head, ready to leave:

"Perhaps you should put out your official identity and go to the Foreign Affairs Department and see what they can do to help."

"but……"

Levi spoke again, this time, he was begging.

"At first, it's too high-profile, too conspicuous, you know..."

"Secondly..."

He shrugged sheepishly:

"The exchange rate is not good recently, and my... funds are limited."

too loud...

The exchange rate is not good...

etc.

Rebuild the tower.

Trudida.

Bring special products?

The prince pondered for a while, and became somewhat clear.

"Okay, but if I help you," Thales turned around and snorted softly:

"What can I get?"

Levi froze for a moment, then released an awkward smile:

"From the Tower of Reconstruction and the Trudida family... friendship?"

Thales raised his eyebrows.

Rebuild Tower and Trudida's friendship.

sounds good.

that is……

Thales smiled softly.

How much is it worth?

Looking at the other party's reaction, Levi also seems to know how famous his family is.

"Okay, listen to me..."

Levi took a deep breath, ignored the expressions of Glover and Doyle, leaned close to Thales' ear, and whispered something.

Thales' expression changed.

Unexpectedly, after a few seconds, Thales nodded solemnly.

"make a deal."

Levi's eyes lit up and he snapped his fingers.

Little Trudida said with a smile:

"I knew you were easy to talk to. It's not in vain for my father to boast every day that there is Thales in the stars..."

But the Duke of Xinghu interrupted him.

"I remember that your father was cautious, thought twice about everything, and never bet lightly," the prince said lightly:

"You come to Xingchen to find me at this time, does he have any objections?"

Levi paused for a moment, but looked at the prince intriguingly.

"As a son," Levi stared at him with a meaningful smile, "If you are always subject to your father in everything..."

"You can never be an adult, can you?"

Thales was silent for a while.

He suddenly thought of another grand duke's son, the Viscount of the Windy City of Qiyuan City, "The Hate" Ian Ronnie.

"Thank you for your frankness. I will tell Grand Duke Trudida about this." Thales said lightly.

"I can't ask for it," Levi didn't panic, but smiled slyly:

"Then he will know that not every son is eligible to be mentioned by the famous 'Polaris' who reversed Exeter's fate."

Hearing this address, Thales frowned.

"You...do all the people from the North call me that?"

"Of course there are others, but this sounds the best..."

Levi looked at Thales cautiously and grinned:

"Or, would you rather be called the 'Little Star of the Grand Duchess'?"

Thales' face darkened.

The surrounding guards looked at each other, their expressions became strange again.

Thales sighed.

north star.

This nickname...

Sunset, is it because a prince who came back from Exeter has not caused enough troubles in the Kingdom of Stars?

Northerners, thank you so much.

Just when Levi was about to leave, Thales suddenly said:

"So, King Charman has no problem with you coming to my banquet?"

Hearing that name, Levi's face changed.

He was silent for a few seconds.

"Duke, today is your day of great joy..."

Little Trudida looked around and said softly:

"Let's not talk about bad things."

Thales bid him farewell politely, and the satisfied Levi turned back and left under the "escort" of Zoneveld and Piloga.

But when the prince turned around, his expression turned cold.

"Glorver," Thales said gloomily:

"Go and find out where Gilbert is, and bring him to me."

Glover frowned slightly.

Doyle next to him was startled:

"Now? But Your Highness, it is reported that the Guardian Duke of the East China Sea, that is, Prime Minister Cullen is coming soon, and I need you..."

However, Thales suddenly shouted:

"To his prime minister."

The Duke of Xinghu opened his mouth in a cold voice, slurring every word, disturbing:

"Now, right now, right now..."

Thales glared coldly:

"Give it to me, find it, Gilbert Castle."

Both of them, who were used to the prince's gentle personality, were startled.

Glover didn't say anything more, and immediately turned and left, leaving only Doyle, who was anxious, by Thales' side, looking at him worriedly from time to time.

Gilbert soon appeared in front of him with a puzzled face.

But Thales pushed back Doyle and Glover, bluntly:

"What happened to Exeter?"

Gilbert was startled for a moment:

"What's the matter? Everything should be normal... After eradicating dissidents, King Charmain I has been busy appeasing the inside..."

But Thales interrupted him impatiently:

"Gilbert!"

"Just now, two Northlanders stopped me rudely, and one of them even called me 'King of Stars' directly in front of everyone."

Gilbert's expression changed.

Thales took a step forward with sharp eyes:

"Do you understand it?"

Gilbert and the prince looked at each other for a second, then sighed slightly:

"You know, today is your big day. After today, you will officially enter the social circle of Eternal Star City and step onto the stage of the Kingdom. If something really happens, it can't be compared to..."

But Thales just stared at each other:

"Gilbert, six years ago, you brought me to Mindis Hall."

"So I trust you."

"Even more than others."

Seeing the prince's expression, Gilbert hesitated to speak, with a complicated look on his face.

A few seconds later, Earl Caso sighed slowly.

"A few days ago, there was a battle report from Exeter."

Thales' expression tightened.

really.

I saw Gilbert swept away the joy and relaxation of the banquet day, with a serious expression, and entered a thorough work state:

"Longxiao, Qiyuan, and Jieshou, the three cities joined forces, and nearly 20,000 soldiers from the north went west to the border in a fierce manner. The way was like breaking a bamboo. The Freedom Alliance retreated steadily, and the entire Golden Corridor trembled."

"Not long ago, the Exeters finally conquered the city and besieged Fort Liberty."

Thales nodded.

As one of the participants in the incident, he clearly remembers the internal and external causes of this war, its forces, and dramatic twists and turns.

"I know that Exeter wants to reaffirm their hegemony and status in the golden corridor..."

A small free alliance, but it affects the political situation in the Western Continent—whether it is the sixteenth city of Kangmas, the white elves of Baishan, or other countries on the golden corridor. However, King Nuen took it lightly and slapped his front teeth off, hurting his muscles and bones...

In the face of this crisis and the reunion of the three cities of the Northland, all the forces would rather stand by and watch, and no one would dare to touch the giant dragon against the scales.

Including Star Kingdom, which took the opportunity to cheat the Freedom Alliance.

But Thales realized something.

"Your expression, Gilbert."

"what happens?"

The Foreign Minister looked at Thales' reaction and sighed:

"You know, a few months ago, the Kingdom's Secret Branch's intelligence point in Exeter had just suffered heavy damage, and it was still being rebuilt..."

"The information I got is very messy, and I'm still verifying each item one by one. The secret department has been very busy these days..."

Thales directly omitted these clichés:

"Then what do you know?"

Gilbert was silent for a while.

Thales stared at him fixedly.

"Although it has not been fully confirmed, but in general..."

Gilbert's tone was calm:

"The Exeters failed to attack the city and suffered heavy losses."

"In a few days, they lost consecutive battles and suffered huge losses."

"More and more supplies were cut off, and the rear was attacked."

"Forced to give up the goal..."

"The whole army retreated."

Thales froze.

"Yes, Your Highness."

At this moment, Gilbert sighed slowly, between the lines, there was a sad emotion that can only be understood by those who are familiar with history:

"Since the fierce rise in the era of Nun VI, he has been invincible and invincible..."

"Under the rule of the King Born, the hegemony is strong, and the power shakes the West..."

"The Kingdom of Exeter, which has fought countless battles and is invincible in the world..."

Gilbert sighed:

"I lost."

Thales was in a daze for a moment.

Exeter.

Northerners.

Kingdom of Dragons.

Children of the north wind and the dragon.

A descendant of the hero Nakaju's brethren.

lost?

Gilbert was still talking, but Thales nodded as if he was listening through a curtain.

In his long life, he often worked hard for his own life, exhausted his life to protect himself, and shuttled through endless political games and the vortex of the times...

But this is the first time, the first time he felt so clearly:

Times have changed.

Thales took a deep breath.

"So I think this makes your appearance today even more important..." Gilbert's words came back to his ears.

But Thales was no longer interested in listening.

"Little... plug..."

Thales opened his mouth subconsciously, but he could only spit out a few single sounds.

Gilbert frowned.

Until the second prince raised his head indifferently:

"Dragon Clouds City... Where's the Grand Duchess?"

Gilbert was silent for a while, as if he had expected it, but he seemed to hesitate to speak.

But the Duke of Xinghu's gaze was too intense.

Overwhelming.

"According to the current news..."

Gilbert spoke with difficulty: "After the big victory, the Liberty Alliance claimed..."

"They captured the enemy commander."

"Life or death is unknown."

At that moment, Thales' ears fell silent.

It was as if the entire Mindis Hall had been completely silenced.
