The Witcher’s Nightmare Wagon

In the early morning, Thomas entered Abetus from the manor in the suburbs in a carriage. He was in a good mood and had breakfast at a coffee shop by the Suriwen River.

The water of the Su Ruiwen River was sparkling, and rows of ships loaded with cargo left the port. These ships would follow the banks of the Su Ruiwen River, bypass the northern port of Abetus, and then head south along the west coast.

Shipped to the southern seas.

"The Su Ruiwen River has not been as lively as it is now for a long time." Thomas sighed, and drank the coffee covered with milk froth. credit.

At this moment, he heard some special news in the noisy coffee shop.

"Is what you said true? Princess Charlotte is dating a mysterious man? Even invited him to board her carriage alone?" Two voices of discussion came from behind.

With a move in his heart, Thomas put down his cane and pricked up his ears.

"It's still false. The news has already spread. Many people saw the scene at that time. It was Princess Charlotte who took the initiative to invite the man to board her carriage. The two of them stayed in the carriage for a long time. During the process, the carriage seemed to shake a few times abnormally."

Turning his head quickly, and with a casual glance, Thomas saw the bearded man who was talking.

"It's slander! Princess Charlotte is the purest pearl of Elam..." another thin man argued.

"But don't forget, she is also a woman, and she can also marry and have children. In fact, apart from being a bit more distinguished, what is the difference between her and those one-pound women?" The bearded man curled his lips in disdain.

"You are not allowed to slander my princess!" the thin man screamed.

"Am I wrong?" The bearded man snorted coldly, "This is not slander, someone took a photo of that time, and they even found out the identity of the man."

"Who is he? Is there any other young man in Elan who is worthy of our princess?"

"Henrik, the new chief executive of the Bureau of Investigation."

"Investigation Bureau? Does Elan have this department?" The thin man obviously had no experience with any extraordinary events, and he was confused when he heard about the Investigation Bureau.

"You just need to know that the deputy director of the Bureau of Investigation is our Lord Duke, and the chief executive is a power figure second only to the deputy director. It is said that Mr. Henrik is only in his early 20s."

"How come I've never heard of this man?"

"Not only have you never heard of it, but neither have I." The bearded man shrugged.

"But I heard from a friend that Prince Philip held a banquet in his manor not long ago, and this Henrik appeared at the banquet as Princess Charlotte's male companion, and they danced that day. First dance."

"Besides Prince Philip, this Henrik was the first man to dance with Princess Charlotte! Now this man is in Princess Charlotte's carriage again. The two of them stayed in the narrow carriage for a long time. What should be the relationship between them?" The bearded man asked back.

"Not only that, but I also got another piece of news..." On the table next to him, a man in a white shirt and checked vest wiped his mouth.

"Princess Charlotte's 20th birthday will be in a few days. At that time, this Henrik will serve as the guardian knight of the princess and accompany the princess to meet His Majesty the King."

"What?!" The two were surprised.

"I think you all know what a guardian knight means to a princess." The man smiled.

"So the result is obvious, our Elland Pearl, she is finally in love!"

"My God, this is not true, the princess said she would only marry this country if she said she wanted to marry!"

"Only when one of the mouths of a woman is blocked can the other speak the truth." The bearded man laughed loudly at his companion.

"It's not true, how do you know such important news as the guardian knight?" the thin man asked back.

"This is not important news, is it? It will definitely be announced before the celebration begins. In addition, the source of the news is not me, but someone in the palace, because according to tradition, the palace will send someone to make a tailor-made plan for the guardian knight." Dresses for the day of the ceremony."

"So...it's no secret anymore."

The three men insisted on their own opinions, some were disdainful, some were proud, and some were sad. Hearing all this, Thomas had a strange expression on his face.

He was in front of the Investigation Bureau yesterday and saw the gentleman get into the princess' carriage. As for whether the two were talking or doing something in the carriage, Thomas didn't want to think about it.

He was just lamenting that Mr. Henrik was indeed remarkable, and only a princess could be worthy of such a man.

But at this moment, when he heard the news spread in the tavern, he instinctively noticed something abnormal.

Putting on his top hat and picking up his cane, Thomas quickly left the restaurant. After changing several carriages, he finally found the person he wanted to see.

"Sir..." As soon as they met in the carriage, Thomas couldn't wait to repeat to Sigmund what he had observed in the coffee shop.

"It's been a bit of an oddity, and I've heard a lot of people talking about it along the way, and while everyone is curious about the royal family's secrets, it's unnerving how quickly the news travels."

"And...a former suitor of Princess Charlotte, he just returned to Abetus not long ago, if these processed news reach his ears, I'm worried..."

"You mean Dario?"

"No! Mr. Henryk, your enemy is my enemy. I just don't want his possible offense to affect your opinion of me." Thomas expressed his loyalty.

As the second son who doesn't pay much attention, he has now become a marginal figure in the family. Only by holding on to the thigh in front of him can he realize his ideal.

"Work hard." Sigmund didn't say anything, but took out a special communicator and handed it to Thomas, "I will use this contact if you need anything in the future."

"Thank you for your trust, Mr. Henrik!"

"You came just in time, your brother Dario, did he study at St. Lunce University of Medicine four or five years ago?"

"Medical University?" Thomas thought carefully for a while. "Four or five years ago, he seemed to have disappeared for a while. Father just said that he was going to study, but he didn't say where he went."

"However, I remember very clearly what happened later. Not long after he came back, Dario changed a lot. Not only did he complete the extraordinary enlightenment, but he was also promoted very quickly after that. It didn't seem to take too long to enter the second class step."

"Do you know the contract he signed?"

"I don't know." Thomas shook his head. "At that time, I was not very interested in these things. I just thought that Dario after becoming a superhuman was a bit weird."

"Then, not too long later, Dario took the initiative to apply to his father, left Abetus, and went to the north. After that, he rarely came back, but every time he changed a lot, I could feel it from him. To a terrible sense of oppression."

"The relationship between the two of us has also become more and more rusty."

"I left here after the second level..." Sigmund was thoughtful, an ordinary nobleman suddenly became enlightened, and then he was promoted to the fifth level in only four or five years.

But at this moment, the carriage in motion stopped abruptly. Thomas opened the window and glanced out, but quickly shrank his head back.

"What's wrong?" Sigmund asked.

"It's... Dario!"

"He's outside, stopping my carriage!"
