Kovitan Kingdom.
The black city stretched across the top of the mountain range, with red and yellow lights shining like stars.
At night, the winding mountain road of the Kingdom snaked downwards, passing through the sea of white clouds on the mountainside, all the way to the foot of the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, in the forest, there were rows of civilian houses with black roofs and white walls, like fine white stones, of different sizes, with civilians moving in and out like ants.
Some oxcarts and horse carriages pulled heavy goods up the winding mountain road.
The faint moonlight shone on the surface of the mountain range, plating the ground with a layer of silver dust.
Garon and his group, dressed in black armor, appeared at the entrance of the winding mountain road at the end of the civilian housing area.
At the entrance, there were two black stone towers, with sentries and a totem user on each side.
This totem user wore a white robe, seeing Garon and his group of six from afar, his face suddenly became serious, and hurried down the tower, walking out from the entrance at the bottom, followed by a few silver-armored guards.
After taking the initiative to welcome Garon and his group, the totem user lowered his head and bowed.
"I am the guard totem user An Lin, may I ask for your passes, sir?"
As he spoke, he was also sizing up the group in front of him, these six people were not dressed like normal totem users or warriors, the high collar of their black robes had a golden iris pattern engraved on it, indicating their noble status.
Looking at their dusty appearance, it was obvious that they had traveled a long way here. In this era, to be able to travel such a long way through the gathering grounds of the monster nests, they were either very strong, reaching form three, or they were very powerful, and had the support of secret treasures.
There were very few people in this group, only six of them, so the former was obviously the most likely.
An Lin had received quite a number of masters, but this group of people was similar to the masters of the national government, the stench on their bodies was obviously left behind from killing too many creatures.
Garon only nodded at him briefly. The old man beside him quickly went forward and handed him a black gold pass.
Usually, they flew in and out, and rarely had the chance to enter the inner city of the Kingdom. But fortunately, he was well-prepared, and everything was in order.
After completing the inspection, An Lin volunteered to lead them to the second sentry tower.
Along the way, Garon casually chatted with this person.
"I heard that the Black Prince has come to the capital to meet His Majesty. I wonder if he has arrived at the inner city?"
"My Lord, His Highness arrived last night. I've heard that they've already entered the Jade Spring Pond. After washing their bodies, they should be able to formally meet His Majesty tomorrow, "An Lin hurriedly replied respectfully.
"This time, the Black Prince is really something. There are more than a hundred totem users following him. I heard that there are even Form Three totem users among them, tsk tsk … "
Garon did not care about the so-called third form. In the eyes of this Form 2 totem user, a Form 3 totem user was already a very powerful person, and he couldn't find out anything about higher powers.
"When His Highness the Black Prince arrived, who was the first to receive him?" he asked again.
An Lin hesitated momentarily.
"I'm not too sure either, but if I'm not mistaken, it's usually the Minister of Foreign Affairs who receives them for the first time. His Majesty should wait for them to bathe and clean up before officially receiving them. However, I heard that the Black Prince is also the heir to the throne of his country. It's just that he doesn't have a proper title. I think they've already met him today. "
Garon nodded and flicked out a golden rumb.
"What else happened in the past ten days? Tell us all about it."
During the war, the rumb had greatly depreciated as a currency. Even so, a golden rumb was still a considerable amount for a Form 2 totem user.
After receiving a little reward, An Lin's mood instantly improved and he continued speaking.
"There's another piece of news that might be more important. His Majesty has already decided to grant the First Concubine a protection ceremony, but we don't know what this ceremony is. His Majesty has decided to take advantage of the Black Prince's presence and announced that it will be officially held next Monday. “
"Protection ceremony?" The old man suddenly exclaimed in a low voice, his face full of surprise. "It should be a trust ceremony, granting the right to protect the treasure …" he explained softly in the black box.
The rest of them quickly understood as well, and instantly revealed looks of yearning. That was the legendary Original Heirloom! To be able to obtain the protection of such a treasure was a big deal for any totem user.
Garon naturally knew what was going on. This meant that the First Concubine or the Obscuro Society's secret plot was getting closer and closer.
They casually asked Garon about other small matters, until they really didn't get anything. Only then did Garon shut his mouth and stop talking.
The group didn't say anything else, and quickly climbed to the second guard tower.
But this time, there were already people waiting outside the guard tower. It was obvious that An Lin had informed them beforehand.
"Then I'll take my leave first." An Lin bowed respectfully and left.
"Thank you for your hard work."
"It's my honor to serve all of you."
Garon and the rest walked closer to take a look, and suddenly realized that the people who came to receive them were dressed luxuriously, with thick cloaks for concealment, and their faces couldn't be seen clearly.
"Your Excellency Garon Trejons, I wonder if Liv has the honor of inviting you for dinner?"
The leader of the black-cloaked people lifted her mask slightly, revealing her face underneath.
It was the face of a pure, delicate, and beautiful young girl.
Her skin was as white as milk, delicate and smooth, faintly glowing under the moonlight. Her light blonde hair was combed into a ponytail, winding down from her shoulders. Her lips were pink, and incomparably delicate.
The most eye-catching thing was her clear eyes, which were like purple gems.
This girl clearly didn't have any intention of begging, but still, Garon felt a sense of tender affection for her.
It was as if her eyes were unintentionally emitting an illusion of pity.
"First Princess …" The old man respectfully called out the person's name, obviously purposely pointing out the person's identity.
"Your Highness the First Princess?" Garon narrowed his eyes, and looked at the legendary First Princess with rapt attention.
"I wonder if Your Excellency can agree to Liv's willful request?" The First Princess was petite, and her height just reached Garon's chin. But standing face to face, when a breeze blew, there was a faint fragrance. It didn't seem like any kind of known fragrance, but more like a natural fragrance of a young girl.
"Since Your Highness has invited me, how can I refuse?" Garon smiled, sizing up the First Princess in front of him, who had been rumored for a long time.
As Avic's most beloved princess, First Princess Liv had astonishing beauty, extraordinary strategy, and extraordinary courage. Unknowingly, she had already formed a large force under Avic's command.
Her strength was strong.
But as Avic's eldest daughter, First Princess Liv's age had definitely reached a certain age. But now seeing this woman, a trace of doubt arose in Garon's heart.
This woman was at most sixteen years old! She couldn't be the First Princess who was rumored to be over thirty years old!
"Do you have any doubts?" The First Princess smiled slightly. "Actually, it's fine to tell you directly. This is my body's talent. "
"Body's talent?"
"Yes, my body will never age, until the end of time. This is my natural physique. "The First Princess said with a smile. "But now is not the time to talk about this."
Her face suddenly turned serious.
"Sir Garon, you must know about the upcoming trust ceremony, right?"
"Why?"
"Please come with me, we'll talk about it over dinner."
Garon nodded and turned to look at the rest.
"You guys go back to the headquarters first, I'll come later."
"Yes, Team Leader." The old man and the others had already formed a certain degree of solidarity with Garon over the past few days. After all, in a chaotic world, only those with strength could maximize their own safety and interests.
Following the First Princess, Garon and the group of people quickly moved along the mountainside and arrived in front of a hidden villa.
After entering the villa in a single file, the inside was brightly lit, and a sumptuous banquet had been prepared in the hall.
Golden roast chicken, fragrant stewed beef and vegetable soup, fragrant black caviar, red fruit platter, and large pieces of black steaks in sauce. There were also carefully made egg rolls wrapped in unknown things and so on.
The Eldest Princess dismissed everyone, including the attendants. She put on an appearance as if they were discussing confidential matters.
Soon, only Garon and her were left in the hall.
Picking up the emerald green wine bottle and pouring a glass of fruit wine for each of them, the First Princess's face showed a pure smile.
"Perhaps you know that the First Princess Delouse is very likely a member of the Obscuro Society?"
Garon frowned slightly, but only nodded without saying anything.
The First Princess glanced at him and continued, "But, you still don't know about her other identity."
"Oh? What identity? "
"I didn't plan to tell you this secret, but I didn't expect … Sigh … To be honest, part of the reason why I came to pick you up personally was because of my father." The First Princess said frankly.
"It was my father who asked me to wait at the sentry tower for you to return to the kingdom. It was also my father who asked me to tell you this secret, he didn't want you to worry. "
"It was His Majesty Alric's idea?" Garon became more and more suspicious.
"This secret is very simple." The First Princess smiled, "The First Princess Delouse was actually a spy that my father had placed in the Obscuro Society."
"Oh?!" Garon was slightly shocked. At this moment, he finally understood why the Obscuro Society ignored him even though they knew that he might know Princess Delouse's identity. So the problem lied in this link.
Delouse wasn't a member of the Obscuro Society at first, but a spy that Alric had placed in the Obscuro Society. But if he didn't know the history beforehand, Garon wouldn't have thought that Delouse would give up her position as the First Princess and choose to completely betray Alric.
"Why tell me such a big secret?" Garon asked without any change in his expression. He now knew how complicated Alric's assassination was.
"Tomorrow, my father will meet you personally, maybe then he will express his intentions." The First Princess shook her head.
Garon looked at the pure and beautiful girl in front of him.
She looked pure, but who knew what kind of ambition was hidden in her heart. Such a person's nature couldn't be seen just by looking at her appearance.
"Alright, this is my father's order, I've done it. Next, it's our time. "She pouted unhappily.
"At first I thought that my father would distance himself from you, then I would have a chance to get closer to you, I didn't expect it to be like this, what a disappointment."
She took a big gulp of fruit wine and slammed the glass down, her cheeks turning slightly pink.
"You don't know, when I heard that you escaped unscathed from countless ambushes in the Battle of the Snowy Peak, I was overwhelmed with emotions." Her eyes were filled with excitement, "I've been in poor health since I was young, I didn't have the potential to be a totem user, my body was weak, and without the royal family's medicine to nourish me, I couldn't have lived to this age. My biggest dream is to be like those ancient heroes, to be able to charge through an army of thousands of men and horses, and be unstoppable!! That was simply too … too overwhelming!! "She couldn't find the words to describe it, and clenched her fists to show her excitement.
"So, at that time, I was thinking, if I could see the person I could entrust my dream to with my own eyes …"
For some reason, Garon felt his mouth go dry, looking at the First Princess' pure and cute appearance, he suddenly had the urge to pounce on her, tear her clothes, and ravage her. Now he saw her looking at him with a face full of admiration, her moist pink lips licking with her little tongue.
"I know I'm not in good health … But I just want to fulfill one of my wishes … I don't know if you can promise me …" The First Princess lowered her head, revealing a shy expression, her cheeks and neck blushing like a rose.
"If you can promise me … Any position … I'll do it. Even the back … the back … I can … "The First Princess' voice was like a mosquito.
