Otto finally met the legendary Prince Roland of Graycastle.
After confirming that he was indeed a noble of the Kingdom of Dawn, he was taken into the castle by Carter. Then the servants brought him toiletries, new clothes, and hot food. At the same time, Carter searched him from head to toe.
This was probably the most rude reception Otto had ever seen.
Prince Roland stayed in a room on the third floor of the castle facing the north. When he opened the door, the first thing he saw was a floor-to-ceiling window that took up half of the wall. The snowy scene behind made the room look very bright. Although the fireplace was not lit, the room was extraordinarily warm.
The prince sat in front of a mahogany table, flipping through a black leather notebook in his hand. Otto found that it was his notebook. The official documents of the ambassador and the family seal were also on the side. It seemed that the hotel where he lived had been thoroughly searched.
His hair color was the same as Timothy's, and his face was somewhat similar, but the feeling he gave off was very different. Whether it was his sitting posture or his expression, he seemed very casual, which somewhat matched the rumor that Prince Roland liked to do things his own way.
When he saw Otto, he closed the notebook and smiled. "Are you the messenger from the Kingdom of Dawn? Please sit down. "
Otto bowed according to the etiquette of the nobles. No matter how badly the other party had behaved, he had to follow the etiquette. After all, Prince Roland might not care much if he was treated as a joke, but he represented the royal family of the Kingdom of Dawn.
"I've taken a look at what you've written," the prince said with a smile. "Some aspects are indeed recorded in detail, so it's not surprising that it was misunderstood. Besides, my subjects don't know where you come from. They enthusiastically reported you because of my order. Here, I apologize to you. "
"Reported... by subjects?" Otto frowned slightly. However, no amount of explanation could absolve a noble from being rudely violated, not to mention that the other party was a person without a title. If it were not for the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, he would definitely ask His Highness to bring this person to justice. He suppressed the displeasure in his heart and said, "No, Your Highness, you are doing this for the stability of the territory, but … this action may hurt those innocent outsiders. Most of them may not be able to produce documents to prove their identity like I did."
"You don't have to worry about that. The evidence collected by the Ministry of Justice has nothing to do with identity documents. We have a series of measures to ensure the innocence of the innocent." Prince Roland waved his hand. "What do they say? We don't wrongly accuse a good person, but we don't let go of a bad person either." At this point, he raised the corner of his mouth. "I've heard about how you were arrested. If you had followed their instructions, you wouldn't have suffered any harm. The process is somewhat rough, but it is also helpless, you must know that some of the most vicious people can pull out a weapon at any time in an attempt to fight back. Since the beginning of winter, two policemen in Border Town have been injured while trying to arrest them. "
'Police …' he was probably referring to the patrol members. What was the Ministry of Justice? Was it an organization that managed the patrol team? He suppressed the doubts in his heart. "Does this happen often?"
"Once or twice a month," His Royal Highness spread out his hands and said, "It's probably because of the endless winter, Timothy is bored to death. 【Love ↑ Go △ Small ↓ Say △ Net

He did not hide his hostility to the new king. Otto realized that the contradiction between the two sides was obviously irreconcilable. He hesitated for a moment and said, "When I passed by King's City, I heard some rumors among the people … Are you really going to push Timothy off the throne?"
"Are the rumors saying that the new king's throne is in jeopardy?" Roland said bluntly. "Timothy shouldn't have touched the throne. In order to usurp power, he murdered his father, framed his eldest brother, and drove his third sister out of Graycastle. The entire Southern Territory was destroyed by the flames of war, and the people lost their homes. These are all crimes he has committed. Only by overthrowing him can Graycastle regain its former prosperity. "
Otto was a little stunned. Roland and Wimbledon's reaction was even worse than the new king's. At least in terms of determination to fight, Timothy was far less active … The positions and momentum of the two seemed to have been reversed.
He cleared his throat and continued, "In this case, as a friendly neighbor of the Kingdom of Dawn, I hope that Graycastle can regain its stability as soon as possible. This time, I came with the covenant of the King of Dawn, His Majesty Degen Moya. "
"Oh?" The prince said with great interest, "Where is it?"
"To avoid leaking the news, I didn't bring Wenhan with me, but His Majesty granted me the right to sign it myself." Otto repeated the offensive and defensive alliance agreement given by the King of Dawn. "If the two countries can work together, we can effectively contain the attack of the church and avoid repeating the mistakes of the Kingdom of Everwinter and the Kingdom of Wolfheart."
"That's it?"
The prince's response surprised him. What did he mean by "that's it"? He had clearly made it very clear. When he was about to repeat it, Roland shook his head and said, "This plan may not work. The church's determination to annex the Four Kingdoms is much stronger than you think. Coupled with the outstanding God's Punishment Army and witches, your so-called troops stationed at the border will probably be surrounded and destroyed by the enemy before they can set off. "
"God's Punishment Army and... witches?" Otto was surprised.
"It seems that you know nothing about the ambition of the church." Prince Roland took a sip of tea and said, "I'll tell you all the information I know, and I hope you can bring it back to the Kingdom of Dawn so that the king can re-examine this covenant. If we want to defeat the church, what we need to do is not deterrence, but an all-out attack. "
The meeting did not end until the evening. When the prince put down his teacup, the field and forest behind him had become dark. The room lit up with a strange light, brighter and purer than candlelight, but Otto was not in the mood to pay attention to it. He felt the cold sweat on his back soaking his clothes. His fingers unconsciously clenched into fists, and his palms were slippery. His mind was filled with His Highness's words.
Using wild witches to create extraordinary warriors, secretly training combat witches, pure witches... and the purpose of the church to destroy the Four Kingdoms at all costs was to prepare for the coming Doomsday War! These pieces of news were simply too unimaginable!
But many details matched with the information he had learned, such as the Pill of Madness used by the church to weaken the resistance of the Four Kingdoms, the continuous collection of female orphans in carriages to the Holy City, and their attitude toward the defeated nobles. If it was to completely erase the influence of the nobles and achieve a complete unification of the church and the kingdom, everything made sense.
"I... I can't make a decision," Otto stammered. "These things are too important. I have to report to His... His Majesty."
"Of course, this concerns the life and death of the two kingdoms," the prince said calmly. "We can't be too careful. But don't forget, we don't have much time left."
…
When he was about to leave, Otto walked to the door and turned back hesitantly. "Your Highness, I heard that a group of witches has been recruited in Border Town... I wonder if you've heard of the name Andrea."
"Ah, she used to be a noble of the Kingdom of Dawn. Unfortunately, she was stranded in Graycastle." The prince raised his eyebrows. "Why, do you know her?"
"Yes!" Otto's heart skipped a beat. "Can you... let me see her?"
The prince nodded. "I can arrange it for you, but it's up to her whether she will see you or not."
"Isn't Andrea your..."
He shook his head with a smile. "The witches are just people who live here, not my servants. I can't control their thoughts."
