If it were anyone else, Rhine Harut would not have said too much, but facing Fangzheng, he really did not have much of a choice. After all, Fangzheng could easily defeat him, and Firut obviously trusted Fangzheng a little more. So, Rhine Harut had no choice but to bring Fangzheng and Firut to a remote place and tell them everything.
"What? You said Firut is the heir to the throne? "
Fangzheng had already heard about Wang Xuan from Kurshuk, but even so, he still found it unbelievable.
"How did you know?"
"Simple, because of this badge."
As he spoke, Rhine Harut stretched out his hand and took out a badge exactly the same as the one Fangzheng saw in Kurshuk's hand before.
"When this lady received this badge just now, the badge shone. This is enough to prove that she is one of the witches chosen by the dragon, and also the heir to the throne."
"Huh …? No, wait, you said you lost this badge, and Firut picked it up? You can also lose things? That's impossible. "
Hearing this, Fangzheng soon discovered a blind spot. Logically speaking, Rhine Harut would not have made such a mistake. The reason was because of his protection.
After his battle with Rhine Harut, Fangzheng had investigated him out of curiosity. Only then did he realize that in this country, many experts had a special trait known as "Blessing." For example, Kurshuk had "blessing of the wind", and Firut had "blessing of water". But generally speaking, a person could only have one kind of blessing at most.
But Rhine Harut was different. He was like the illegitimate child of the world. Not only did he have all kinds of blessings, he would also change them automatically according to the situation.
If you attacked him from afar, he would have a long-range blessing.
If you attacked him from afar, he would have a close-range blessing.
If you want to steal from him, then he will appear to prevent theft.
To put it simply, the world would give Rhine Harut a buff to avoid or nullify anything that was disadvantageous to him. Therefore, it was impossible for Rhine Harut to lose something, because if he really wanted to lose something, the world would give him a buff to prevent him from losing something.
However, an illegitimate child was not a biological daughter, so when Fangzheng attacked Rhine Harut, the world could not stop him, nor did it dare to risk mutual destruction to stop him. That was why Fangzheng managed to break through the protection.
However, Ferut clearly didn't have that ability.
"That's what I thought too. But now, it seems that this might be the guidance of fate."
"The guidance of fate?"
"Yes."
Rhine nodded and looked at Firut once more.
"I've been searching for the remaining Dragon Witch, but I didn't expect her to appear in front of me in this manner. Isn't this fate?"
"Oh …."
If it were anyone else, they might be baffled by Rhine Harut's words, but as a prophet, Fangzheng could understand what he meant. It was obvious that Rhine Harut's current goal was to find a witch chosen by the dragon to participate in the King's Selection. Perhaps the world had given him a buff to 'find the dragon witch', which was why he lost his badge and was picked up by Firut.
"I think I understand what you mean, but it depends on the person's will."
With that said, Fangzheng looked at Firut.
"Firut, do you want to be the king?"
"I don't want to!"
Firut gave his reply almost immediately.
"See, that's it. Even a knight has to respect the will of others."
"But as a knight, I've long sworn to be loyal to the country."
Saying that, Rhine Harut walked to Firut and knelt on one knee.
"Sir Firut, the country cannot be without a king for a day. The current situation in Luganica must be changed. As a witch chosen by the dragon, participating in the King Selection is also the guidance of fate!"
"I don't want to, I'm not going, I'm not interested!"
Facing Rhine Harut's request that would make most girls blush and nod, Firut mercilessly rejected him three times.
"That's right, Rhine Harut, why do you have to be so fixated on her?"
Fangzheng spoke up as well.
"This little girl is still so young, and she grew up in the slums. Isn't it a joke to expect someone like her to be the king? Even if she becomes the king, who will listen to her? "
"That's right!"
"I'll be by her side as the king's knight."
"Aren't you afraid that she'll mess up the kingdom?"
Fangzheng became more and more puzzled, while Firut's eyes lit up.
"That's right, I don't know anything about these things. If you want me to be the king, then I'll do whatever I want …. By the way, bro, we hit it off quite well. When I become the king, I'll give the whole country to you! How about it? Not bad, right? "
"That's a good suggestion."
But unexpectedly, Rhine Harut nodded.
"If Sir Firut becomes the king, then you can marry Sir Fangzheng. If you can give birth to a few more children, the safety of the royal family will be even more guaranteed …."
"Give, give birth to children?!"
Hearing this, Firut's face instantly turned red. Fangzheng shook his head speechlessly. He really didn't expect Rhine Harut to be so stubborn ….
With this in mind, Fangzheng pulled Lafferut to the side.
"How about it? Have you thought about it? "
"I don't want to be the king even if you beat me to death!"
Firut was determined to not waver for a hundred years.
"I still want to earn more money, then buy a shop with Master Romm and live a stable life!"
"But if you become the king, you can live in a big house, right? And everything will be free. "
"That's too disgusting. I prefer to do it myself. And bro, you've seen it for yourself. If I become the king, they'll even interfere with things like marriage! Isn't that annoying? I don't want to live like that! "
"So you don't want to?"
"Definitely not!"
"But if you don't agree, maybe Rhine Harut will pester you every day. That's not a problem, right?"
"Ugh …."
Hearing this, Firut's face turned bitter. As a local, she knew that Rhine Harut would come out to patrol every day, so the security of the royal capital had always been good. If Rhine Harut came around her every day on patrol and begged her to be the king ….. how could she continue doing business!?
Others wouldn't even dare to come over when they saw Rhine Harut!
"Bro, help me think of a way. I really don't want to."
Firut could only ask Fangzheng for help.
"You want me to think of a way ….. I can't possibly kill Rhine Harut …."
Fangzheng stroked his chin. Then, his eyes lit up.
"By the way, you're not interested in being the king, but are you interested in being an adventurer?"
"Adventurer?"
"That's right. I know of an adventurer team that's still missing a scout. If you're interested, you can join them and become an adventurer. They're all girls around your age, so I think it shouldn't be a problem. If you want to be an adventurer, Rhine Harut won't be able to follow you everywhere. "
Fangzheng still remembered that back when he caught Ferut, she had attempted to escape. Back then, Ferut had also released some sort of augmentation. From the looks of it, it was a speed enhancement. An excellent thief was also an excellent scout and scout. The Priestess and company were currently lacking such a character. If Ferut was willing, Fangzheng felt that it would be a pretty good combination.
"I've thought about it, but Master Romm doesn't want to. He says it's too dangerous."
"Hmm …. Being an adventurer is indeed dangerous. You might die outside, or it might be worse than death. So … .it's your choice."
Fangzheng pursed his lips in Rhine Harut's direction and waited for Firut's decision.
"Hmm …. Hmm …."
Firut looked at Rhine Harut, then at Fangzheng, and finally clenched his teeth.
"I'm willing to be an adventurer! Being an adventurer is better than being a king! "
"Everyone has their own preferences. That's normal."
Fangzheng was only a little surprised by Firut's choice, but he was not particularly surprised. After all, people of every era had different ideas. If you wanted a modern person to be an ancient king, it was unknown how many people would be willing. In fact, one could tell just by looking at Firut that not everyone in the ancient times was willing to be a king.
"I'll explain it to Rhine Harut. You go talk to your family. No matter what, you have to get their permission first."
"I understand!"
After listening to Fangzheng's suggestion, Firut immediately turned around and ran away. Fangzheng found Rhine Harut and told him about Firut's decision.
Sure enough, just as Fangzheng had guessed, Rhine Harut showed a troubled expression after hearing that Firut was going to be an adventurer. After all, he could not leave the city at will. In this case, if Firut ran around, Rhine Harut would not be able to do anything to her.
Besides …..
"You're the same. You're a knight, but you forced a little girl to give up her stable life and choose to be an adventurer. Don't you feel ashamed?"
"This is indeed not what a knight should do, but for the sake of this country, I won't give up so easily."
"Fine, fine."
Faced with such a stubborn Rhine Harut, there was nothing Fangzheng could do.
"In any case, the people for the King's selection aren't here yet, right? I heard from Kursius that there are a total of five candidates, but there are only three now …. Oh, including Firut, that's only four. So it's useless even if you bring Firut back. We can't start the King's selection without everyone, right? "
"But we can let Lord Firut learn the language and etiquette …."
"She doesn't want to learn it herself. How likely are you to force her to learn it?"
"…."
Rhine Harut did not say anything. Firut was obviously unwilling …. But he would not give up. After all …. Rhine Harut had his own ideas.
"I'll give up for now."
In the end, Rhine Harut made his decision.
"When all five candidates are gathered, I'll find Lord Firut again and pledge my loyalty to her."
"…. Do whatever you want."
