"I thank you from the bottom of my heart, my Lord. Thank you for everything you've done for us."
"The same goes for your kindness." Brando replied. He naturally had a good impression of the kind-hearted princess.
This Nun Princess didn't do anything spectacular in history, but everything she did was supported by kindness and justice. History didn't need too many revolutionaries, what it needed were thousands of people like the Nun Princess.
He suddenly remembered something and said to Magadal, "I brought someone with me. You might want to meet him, Your Highness."
"Hmm, who is it, my Lord?" Magadal was stunned. Brando saved her life during the battle in Ampere Seale, so their relationship was closer than his relationship with Princess Gryphine. Therefore, she did not feel awkward when talking to him.
"It's Mr. Blanc, your grandfather."
"What?"
Magadal was shocked. Duke Blanc went missing in a shipwreck not long after the Holy War (at least, that was what the Antoburo Family claimed). It had been at least 60 years since then. Although she was not born when her grandfather went missing, she had at least heard about it.
Because the Archduke's death was announced as a missing person, it wasn't that she hadn't thought that he might appear in places like Nine Phoenix, but so many years had passed. Even if he was lost at sea, if he hadn't died, he should have returned long ago. Although the connection between Nine Phoenix and Vaunte was blocked, it wasn't completely unrelated.
She knew that her grandfather was a Sword Saint and would not be hindered by a little distance.
Therefore, she only thought about it occasionally and treated it as a fantasy. She did not expect that it would one day become a reality.
However, she had never seen her grandfather since she was born. She only knew that her grandfather was the most legendary hero of the Antoburo Principality. She admired her grandfather very much, but she didn't know what to do when she had to face him all of a sudden.
"My grandfather? He, where is he? "
"He's outside. I haven't told him that you're here, so I wanted to ask for your opinion."
"I, I, I will see him at once … Excuse me, Monsieur le Comte." Princess Magadal apologized to him and was about to rush out. However, she paused for a moment and went back to tidy up her dress to see if there were any wrinkles or omissions. This behavior showed that the princess was at a loss for what to do.
But it was understandable. After all, they were blood relatives. Although they hadn't met for decades, they still couldn't part with each other. Moreover, Brando knew very well what it would mean for this small duchy if the old duke returned to Antoburo.
It was impossible for Magadal not to be nervous and concerned.
Magadal hurried out of the room, leaving Brando and Metisha alone in the narrow stone room. Hipamira then thanked him softly. She was a very contented girl and did not think of how to repay him. After all, Brando was her lord and her master. That was enough for her.
Metisha was silent for a moment before she asked, "I never thought that Princess Magadal's grandfather would be here. I heard that he went missing decades ago."
"There's more to this than meets the eye. Actually, it's not like what the rumors say. But that's Marshal Blanche's private matter after all …" Brando explained.
"I understand," Metisha shook her head. "But my Lord, do you think that Marshal Blanche knows about Miss Magadal's existence?"
Brando was silent. He did not tell Blanche about Magadal in advance because of this reason. Perhaps Magadal herself did not know about the uniqueness of her body. The Storm's Core in her body was originally the power core of the Giant God Warrior.
Any ordinary person would definitely not be able to carry such a thing in their body.
There was no doubt that this princess was not human. Unless she was premeditated by someone, the Antoburo family's role in this was very suspicious.
But from Magadal's reaction, the possibility of the former was very slim. And the current Duke of Antoburo would definitely know about his daughter's situation. What about the previous Duke?
That was hard to say.
Of course, he did not want to pry into other people's privacy. He just did not want to hurt this kind princess. Perhaps not interfering was the best way to protect her.
But if the Antoburo family really had ill intentions towards Magadal, then he would have to intervene. Not only was Princess Magadal the best friend of Princess Gryphine, she was also the best friend of all Tónigel. During the time she lived in Abies, she had formed deep friendships with almost everyone.
Such an outstanding lady, Brando would never let her get hurt, and Metisha naturally would not.
Brando was silent for a moment, then suddenly took out the Angel's Heart Bottle and shook it in front of the Silver Elf princess. "I heard that you were injured too. Metisha, do you need this?"
Medissa was extremely intelligent. She could see through Brendel's guilty conscience and couldn't help but laugh out loud. She covered her mouth with the back of her hand and said: "There's no need for that. This is a miraculous artifact. My Lord, please don't use it as a tool to please girls."
"… I don't have such thoughts, I'm just worried about my subordinates …"
The Silver Elf princess snorted softly. "Actually, I have always suspected that the relationship between Miss Delfien and my Lord is not that simple."
"Ahem …"
She raised her head and looked at him carefully.
"Actually, I know what Miss Delfien is thinking. That's why I said that she was a little pitiful. But my Lord, since you have promised her, don't let a girl be sad and disappointed. Perhaps Miss Delfien made the right choice this time, and only you can save her …"
"Metisha?"
"Don't treat me like a child, my Lord. I have a thousand years of experience, much more than my Lord."
"… No," Brando replied. "I met your sister."
"In the Elemental Frontier."
"… …"
… …
Magadal and Frank's reunion was not as complicated as Brando had imagined. The moment the princess saw the old marshal, she recognized the face of the solemn portrait hanging in the middle of the castle. She recognized the old duke who had been missing for more than fifty years.
On the other hand, although Frank subconsciously felt a sense of familiarity with the girl who ran out, he did not recognize her at first sight.
This was understandable. After all, when he left Antoinette, Magadal was not even born yet. He had not even seen the Nun Princess when she was still a baby girl, so how could he recognize his granddaughter at first sight?
However, what happened next was predictable. When Magadal revealed her identity, the old marshal was overjoyed. Some traditions in a large noble family could not be faked, especially for the people in the family. Besides, Brando had no reason to lie to him about this matter, so Frank believed Magadal's words almost immediately.
The old marshal had left Wohnde for a few decades because of his cynicism, but this did not mean that he did not care about his family. It was a bond that no one could give up, not to mention the glorious bloodline that had been passed down.
Magadal immediately threw herself into her grandfather's arms and burst into tears. Although she did not suffer much after the battle in Ampere Seale, now that she was tens of thousands of miles away from her hometown and in a completely unfamiliar environment, it was understandable that she could not control her emotions when she suddenly saw a legendary family member.
Frank was greatly relieved, comforting his granddaughter in a soft voice while chuckling. Obviously, he was very happy to meet a descendant who was related to him by blood before returning to the land of Vaunte.
However, after a short reunion, the old marshal went to find Brando in private and said.
"Young Master Brando, there's something I have to tell you. I might even need your help."
"Please don't call me Young Master." "Mister Frank, if you need anything, please let me know. If there's anything I can help with, I'll do my best." Brendel felt that the way he addressed Frank made him feel uncomfortable.
The old marshal sighed.
"It's about Magadal."
Brando was slightly taken aback.
However, a hint of understanding flashed through his mind. But when he saw Frank's expression, he ruled out the possibility that the Antoburo family was plotting something. Frank obviously knew about Magadal's background, but it seemed that this was something that he could not do anything about.
When this thought flashed through his mind, it naturally showed on his face. Frank looked at his expression and seemed to have understood something.
"Young Master Brando, you already know?"
Brendel paused for a moment, then nodded.
"So," he asked, "What's the matter with Princess Magadal?"
"That child," Frank sighed and said, "She's an Ancient, a descendant of the Ancient Celestials that is even older than the Golden Folk."
"What did you say?!" "Magadal is a Divine Citizen?" Brendel's jaw dropped to the ground. "Magadal is a Divine Citizen?"
"A Celestial?" Frank shook his head and said, "No, no, that child Magadal is not a Celestial. You should have heard of the origin of the Golden Folk, Mr. Brando."
Brando suppressed the shock in his heart and nodded again.
