A tall and broad figure emerged from the rhinoceros carriage. His suit of golden armor shimmered under the sun, making his chiseled features even more intimidating. He had a hand on the longsword hanging from his waist, and was giving off a powerful aura as he appraised Irina calmly. He wasn't enraged in the slightest by her words.
It really is him. Meg's eyes narrowed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal. This was the first prince who had once shared a cup of wine with Alex at the border, and he was also one of the instigators behind the incident three years ago.
Everyone thought that Alex and the first prince were very close, so if the second prince were to vie for the throne, he would definitely side with the first prince.
However, that was all in the past. After the soldiers on the border shed their disguises as normal people and gradually became the rising stars of the Roth Empire's military, the two of them gradually drifted apart due to their greed and power.
"It's His Highness!"
All of the passersby extended respectful salutes at the sight of Sean emerging from the rhinoceros carriage.
Ever since Alex's death, the invincible Sean had gradually replaced Alex's title as the God of War, becoming the new guardian of the Empire.
Sean's status in the hearts of the common people was far inferior to Josh's, but during the past two to three years, he had won the hearts and minds of many of the common people, and he was already on par with Josh.
He was undoubtedly one of the people who had benefited from Alex's death.
Sean nodded at the passersby with a smile on his face. Even though his aura was very powerful, it didn't make him seem all that distant and aloof.
Looks like he's really gone crazy trying to become the king. He's even learned the superficial skills of a politician. Meg couldn't help but grumble internally. He couldn't be bothered to participate in the battle for the throne. Politics was too complicated, and he would rather be in the kitchen.
However, he didn't like either of the two people who were going to vie for the throne. Whichever one of them became the king wasn't something to be happy about, so he was feeling rather conflicted.
Furthermore, what was giving Meg a headache was Irina, who had rushed out and killed the Obsidian Rhinoceros with a chair. He had thought that she would keep a low profile, but it appeared that the word "low profile" didn't exist in her dictionary.
Their family of three had gathered together in a horse-drawn carriage, and it had been crashed into by Sean, so it was very difficult for them not to arouse suspicion.
Irina looked at Sean with a smile, and said, "I like to beat the dog's owner..... of dog's owner's dog's dog's loose, so I hope you can keep an eye on your dog.....'s owner's's personality........ and you....... of's owner's owner's, so I hope you'll be careful.....
"Your Highness is right. I will tie up all the dogs at home when I go back." Sean still didn't appear to be enraged in the slightest. He turned to Mag with a smile, and said, "However, I didn't think that Your Highness would already be in Rodu, and that you would be riding on the second prince's horse-drawn carriage. May I know who you are? Is he an honored guest of yours? "
Sean's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Meg, who was standing in front of the horse-drawn carriage. He had just received news the day before that Josh had found a chef by the name of Meg in Chaos City, and was going to invite him to cook for the king. Furthermore, that chef had a half-elf daughter who was around three or four years old.
According to the latest news from the Cheetahs, Bertley, who had been tailing Louis XIII, had gone missing in Chaos City.
Coincidences like these were far too ingenious, and Sean couldn't help but want to try it out himself. Who would've thought that he would bump into Irina?
A chef by the name of Meg and a half-elf daughter who was around three or four years old? They had just arrived in Chaos City, and Irina was riding in the same horse-drawn carriage as them?
Was this really just a coincidence?
That was far too much of a coincidence.
Sean refused to believe that so many coincidences would coincide with the same person. Furthermore, that person was none other than Alex, whom he had been searching for this entire time.
Meg's heart sank slightly upon hearing this. He had only just gotten past Josh, and now Sean had come knocking on his door. On top of that, he had dragged Irina into this as well. It was going to be very difficult for him to clear his name. After all, he couldn't display his culinary skills in public.
Right at this moment, Crassus emerged from within the carriage, and turned to Sean with a smile as he asked, "Would I count as an honored guest, Your Highness?"
"Crassus!" Sean's pupils contracted upon hearing this. Irina was already enough to surprise him, but who would've thought that there would be a Crassus hidden in this tiny horse-drawn carriage!
Sean's expression quickly returned to normal, and he smiled as he said, "So it's Master Crassus. Of course you're an honored guest. I heard that you went to Chaos City; I didn't think that you would also be in Rodu."
"Who is Master Crassus? Why is His Highness so respectful toward him? "
"You don't even know who Master Crassus is? How dare you say that you're from the Roth Empire? "
"That's right. 50 years ago, Master Crassus was just like Master Alex a few years ago. He dominated the entire continent on his own, and even giant dragons had to transform into their human forms to enter Rodu. Otherwise, they would've been struck down from the sky."
"That's right. The current Magus Tower is only what it is today because of Master Crassus' illustrious achievements. Otherwise, how could it be taller than the royal palace?"
All of the passersby began to discuss spiritedly among themselves upon hearing that. Some elderly people were very excited when they talked about Crassus' feats, and wanted nothing more than to rush up to Crassus to express their admiration for him.
Crassus pursed his lips, and said, "I'm not a tree; I have to stay wherever I grow. Sean, you haven't even become the king yet, and you're already trying to control where I go? "
Sean's expression became even more cautious. Crassus had an extremely special status in the Roth Empire, and was not inferior to Alex's status in the past. He had severed his ties with the Magus Tower and left Chaos City, which was undoubtedly the equivalent of cutting off an arm of Josh's, and that made him extremely elated.
However, he was now disembarking from Josh's horse-drawn carriage, and appeared to be in a very bad mood. If he were to stand on Josh's side again, that would clearly be unacceptable to him.
"You're too kind, Master Crassus. I'm just concerned about you. There's no place on the Norland Continent that you can't go to," Sean said with a smile.
Crassus looked at Sean with a smile, and said, "In that case, I've only just arrived in Rodu, so I'm taking my precious disciple out to eat some good food, and I'm also taking little Irina out for a chat. I don't think that's a problem for you, right? You don't have to use such a huge magic beast to kill me, do you? "
