Antis's body stiffened, then slowly relaxed.
He laughed awkwardly. "Aren't you too smart to have guessed the royal family's intentions so quickly?"
Roland chuckled. "Is this smart? It's normal, okay? You haven't seen the geniuses among the Golden Sons, who are so clever that they seem to have nine heads. "
Antis naturally didn't believe it. He didn't think that a world where everyone was a dragon would exist.
Even Fareins, the strongest country, had a literacy rate that wasn't much higher than Hollevin's.
If the literacy rate in Hollevin was about 1%, then the literacy rate in Fareins was only 1.5%, not much higher than theirs.
Only the elves had a high literacy rate, almost 100%.
However, the fertility rate of the elves was too low, and it was said that the total population was just over 50,000.
It would be strange for such a race to rise.
Antis only took this as Roland's modesty. He continued, "Actually, I think it's better for you to join the royal family with your abilities. At least the royal family recognizes your strength. "
"Even if I abducted the queen?" Roland smiled a little weirdly. "Even if the members of the royal family don't have an opinion, the king at least has an opinion, right?"
"What do you mean the queen was abducted by you? Watch your words," Antis said angrily. Antis said angrily, "The queen is just traveling. She just happened to stay in Delpon for a while."
Roland was lost for words. "As long as you're happy."
"Speaking of the queen, do you know her true identity?" asked Antis.
Antis still liked to lean against the wall. Roland suddenly remembered that he had read this in a book somewhere: people who liked to lean against the wall to talk to others were intrinsically insecure, and they didn't like to expose their backs, or weaknesses, to outsiders.
Antis had insecurities?
Roland, who had this idea in his mind, was slightly stunned, then he asked, "You know?"
"Of course I do." Antis nodded and said, "I'm a member of the royal family after all. The queen married the king more than four years ago, and I was involved in the investigation of her identity at the time. Do you want to hear it? "
Antis's expression was a little mischievous.
Roland didn't pay attention to the other party's teasing and calmly nodded.
Andonara was his friend at this moment, and he couldn't guarantee what their relationship would be like in the future. It would be good to hear about her past.
"The queen was already very famous when she was still a young girl." Antis smiled gently. "After all, not only is she beautiful, she's also very strong. She's already an Elite Warrior at the age of fifteen. Later, she became a Great Swordsman and lived a pretty good life as a mercenary for two years. Later, she got tired of the scheming of mercenaries and retired from the mercenary world. Coincidentally, the king was marrying a queen and was summoning all the beauties in the country, so she participated. "
There was a look of nostalgia in Antis' eyes.
Roland listened attentively.
"You have no idea how amazing Andonara was when she was still a young girl. She stood in the middle of a group of noble girls, wearing a simple white tunic, with a longsword at her waist. Her long hair was in a simple ponytail, without any paint, and there were no gems or rings on her body. But just by standing there, she can attract all the men's eyes. "
Antis likes Andonara too?
Roland came to this conclusion.
"The king chose her at first sight," Antis said gloomily. Antis had a lonely look on his face. "As the captain of the royal guards, I also participated in the investigation on her."
"The queen was born in a small merchant's family in the capital. Her family was clean. But as we investigated further, we later discovered that the queen's father was also a strong Warrior. "
"How did a Warrior become a merchant?"
"As we investigated further, we discovered that Andonara's father's surname was Reed."
Roland frowned. He seemed to have heard of the surname in a book somewhere.
Seeing that Roland seemed to have learned something, Antis smiled and said, "That's right. It's exactly the Reed in your imagination. She's a descendant of Hero Kate. "
Roland was briefly stunned. "The bloodline of the Hero? No wonder she's so strong."
Nodding in agreement, Antis continued, "After Hero Kate Reed defeated Diablo, she bought a village near Winterwind as his territory and named it Reed Village. Her father was a branch of Hero Reed's family and couldn't inherit the territory. So, he became a merchant with some money. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also strong. The king married her because he wanted her to give birth to descendants with the bloodline of the Hero. Now do you understand why she, as the daughter of a small merchant, was able to defeat the daughters of the great nobles and become the queen? "
Roland nodded. He had to admit that the king's idea was right. It was understandable.
Antis chuckled.
Roland asked curiously, "Why did you tell me that?"
"I just wanted to tell you how precious the queen is." Antis walked to the door, then he suddenly turned around and said, "Actually, I'm quite envious of you."
After saying that, Antis left quickly, as if he were fleeing.
Roland walked on the street after he left, thinking about Antis's words.
He knew very well what Antis meant, which was that he should cherish the people around him and not let Queen Andonara down.
But the problem was that Roland had his own problems too.
As a traditional man, he felt that he couldn't act recklessly if he couldn't make a promise to a woman.
As the saying on the Internet went, "If you don't marry, why flirt?"
Especially after he broke up with his ex-girlfriend, the idea became more and more embedded in his mind. Even to this day, he still remembered his girlfriend's crying on the phone on the day of the peaceful breakup.
Both of them were rational enough to know that a long-distance relationship was fruitless. But feelings would never disappear. After the breakup, they were no longer related. How could they let go of their four-year relationship so easily?
Naturally, he could tell that Vivian was a good girl, and so was Andonara.
But he was just an outsider who couldn't stay in this world for long. The game would end one day. So, how could he make a promise to two women?
Roland walked gloomily. There was no telling how long he walked or how many detours he took, but he finally reached the Black Bear's Magic Tower in the evening.
The guard recognized him and reported it. Very soon, the Black Bear Mage came down to greet him in person.
Several minutes later, they were seated in the study, and Tobian said with a beaming smile, "I'm glad you can visit my Magic Tower again."
Roland also smiled. "Should I call you General Chairman Tobian, or Master Tobian?"
Tobian waved his hands and said with a smile, "Just wait a little longer. There are still some things that need to be taken care of. Before that, I'll have an invitation delivered to Delpon. So, sir … What's the purpose of your visit? "
