"I'm sorry, I refuse." The girl's tone was firm and there was no hesitation on her face.
Caesar frowned. "Why? I hope that you can calm down and think about it before you make such a decision, instead of making it based on our previous grudges or personal feelings. In any case, the cooperation between us will do more good than harm for both of us. As long as you show up in the family with me, have dinner with the leader of the family, take a walk, and put on a play, you will be able to get rid of the Ferdinand family and continue to live the life that you want. So, why not?"
"You have no idea what the life I want is, and you have no idea what I'm going to face. Unfortunately, I'm not an opportunity for you. This decision is actually for your own good," Lolo shook her head. "Do you have anything else to say? If not, we'll leave."
"That's really regrettable," the young master of the Andrea Family sighed. The young master of the Andrea Family sighed, "I really want to be your friend, not your enemy. But on the other hand, I have to find a way to maximize my personal interests. So if you don't want to cooperate with me, I can only look for other partners. I heard that your fiancé, Mograine, and your uncle, Ancel, are very interested in your whereabouts. At the same time, they should be able to provide me with some attractive rewards. But I personally don't want to take that step. How about this? I can give you two more days to reconsider your decision."
"Are you threatening me?" Lolo frowned slightly.
Caesar shook his head. "It's not a threat. This is just a piece of advice from the standpoint of a friend."
Just as he finished this sentence, Rob, who had been quietly waiting at the side, suddenly said, "Since you mentioned Lucas, do you know how he died later?"
"The sixth master of the Andrea Family fell off a horse and died at the age of 52. It's written clearly on the tombstone. Why? Is there a problem?" Caesar had recited this family history countless times when he was young, so he could answer it fluently.
"Heh, do you really believe that Lucas, who was besieged by the orcs for half a year in the first magic war, escaped from the dwarfs' alchemy cannons, and fought with the Elven King, would die from falling off a horse in an accident during an outing?" The future supreme magus raised his eyebrows. "It was his ambition that killed Lucas. After the end of the First Magic War, the Andrea Family he led rose rapidly and became the hottest upstart in the Southern Alliance. Unfortunately, he wasn't satisfied with that. He wanted to go further and finally chose to help the wandering prince of the fallen Bern Dynasty to overthrow the parliament of the Southern Alliance. However, their conspiracy was leaked. At that time, Lucas had already become the Grand Admiral of the Navy with military exploits. The First, Third, and Fourth Fleets were all his trusted subordinates. The parliament was also afraid of him. In order to minimize the impact and maintain the stability of the Southern Alliance as much as possible, they could only send someone to assassinate him secretly and make it look like he had fallen off his horse."
"What are you trying to say?" Caesar was shocked. In fact, he had been wondering who this ordinary-looking guy in front of him was. When they met for the first time, this guy had shown his familiarity with the Andrea Family. This time, even Caesar, the true descendant of Lucas, had not heard of the history that he was talking about. If what this guy said was true, how did an outsider like him know the secrets of the Andrea Family?
"Ambition has always been a double-edged sword. I hope you won't follow in Lucas' footsteps," Luo Bu said meaningfully.
Caesar's face changed. "What is this? A warning?"
"It's not a warning. It's just a piece of advice from a friend," the future supreme magus, Your Honor, said calmly, returning Caesar's previous words.
The young master of Andrea Family took a deep look at the two people in front of him, "I'm not here to argue. All in all, the promise I've made before is still valid. You'd better think about it when you go back. Everyone only has one chance. Don't regret it when you miss it."
When Caesar's figure disappeared from that path, Lolo's expression also became serious. "I'll go back to school to pack up my things. You're responsible for contacting Merlin. We'll leave Gudilesi tomorrow night at the latest and set off for Or- Grimm."
"But your current elemental control is not enough to use the Philosopher's Stone. It's too difficult for you to explore Or- Grimm with your current strength."
"I know. Unfortunately, we don't have time. If we don't leave now, once we're discovered by the Ferdinand Family or my uncle Angse, we won't be able to leave anymore." The girl sighed softly. "Actually, there's not much time difference. Anyway, the fleet of the Ferdinand Family is about to arrive at the Ruby Archipelago. We must complete the investigation of Or- Grimm before they arrive."
"Well, actually, there's a way … If you trust me, how about leaving this matter to me?" Rob thought for a while and said.
Lolo stopped and turned around suspiciously. "Do you have a way to prevent Caesar from revealing my identity to my uncle and the people of the Ferdinand Family?" "Well, I should say that he didn't intend to tell your identity to the two groups of people above him.
"Well, it should be said that he didn't intend to tell the two groups of people above him your identity. What he said before, ambition, opportunity, and the proposal of marriage, were all just a cover. You have to admit that this guy is indeed very different from before. He has become a lot more cunning. In fact, you shouldn't have agreed to come here because that guy didn't have any confidence at all. He confirmed your identity through your reaction at that time. This is also the only reason why he came to see us today. Well, I can probably guess how he escaped the previous trial."
The girl's eyes widened. "Although it may not be appropriate to say this now, I've wanted to ask since the first time we met. Who are you? Why do you know so many things? Is the history of the Andrea Family true? "
"I know you have a lot of questions. I'll tell you about my identity when the time is right. For now, I'm your guardian knight. We have completed the oath ceremony, so this will never change. As for the history of the Andrea Family, there is indeed such a story, but no one knows the truth. After all, it was 900 years ago. Many truths have been buried by time. So, I just used it to scare that guy."
