Red Moon Returns
Chapter 380: The lingering aftertaste
Her Royal Highness calmly comforted the guests who were shocked by the corpse falling to the ground, and confidently announced that the Land people would not be defeated by such a small matter. After the ball continued, she turned around and left in a dignified manner accompanied by the old duke and the young knight. Her behavior was calm and composed, and she was not affected at all by the fact that she had just walked a circle around the line of death.
It was just that her steps in the skirt were a little floating, and the weight of the arm pressing on the duke's arm was a little heavy, which was not a big deal.
It was just a small episode, the song was sung and the dance was performed.
The ball did not end, but was pushed to a climax.
The new knight, the ceiling was broken, the foresight of the Valente family, the relationship between the noble lady and the downtrodden commoner, the princess was attacked in public, and... the new knight suddenly appeared like a miracle, carrying endless moonlight, triggering a miraculous celestial phenomenon.
Especially the last bow, like a hero who saved the kingdom and the princess in a legendary story, and drifted away after everything was settled, leaving only a back figure for the bards to sing about.
This was definitely an unforgettable night, everything was so impactful that people talked about it with relish, especially the last scene of the sun and the moon shining together, the guests believed that they would remember it for the rest of their lives.
From nobles to civilians, from guests to waiters, everyone talked about everything that had just happened with relish, and discussed Sir Lynch Leviev, and even danced without much heartbeat, just talking about it until late at night.
Those reporters were like a carnival, running around excitedly, and together with the guests at the meeting, everyone was frantically looking for the protagonists of the night, but found nothing.
In fact, Lynch and Natalie were in the Duke's castle, receiving the highest standard of reception, and Miss Valente was also invited in to accompany them.
The so-called highest standard reception means that there are four high-level, more than ten middle-level, more than thirty primary-level and more than three hundred special security personnel in the surrounding rooms, and there are also a group of big figures who can influence the general situation of Rhine and Rand and even the whole world.
The security personnel did not follow in, but two high-level strongmen and several heads of security came in together. The two high-level old men patted Lynch's arm vigorously and shook Natalie's hand, with solemn and grateful expressions.
"You have preserved our reputation for seventy or eighty years and did not embarrass us in public. We will not say anything extra. If you need any help in the future, just come to us."
"Uh, can you get seven or eight more rings like this?"
"Please get out."
The friendly and grateful answer is justified and congratulatory.
The attitudes of the big figures in the room were very strange. They were just like elementary school students, listening to Lynch and the police officer's speeches obediently, and focusing like subordinates listening to the leader's speech at the agency meeting in the previous life.
They were just facing a knight, an ordinary policeman, and a countess who could not inherit the title, but their attitudes were impeccable, just like treating a foreign head of state.
This was normal. After all, those who could reach this position were not fools, at least not all of them. The bigwigs knew very well that in any world, saving the master was the greatest credit, not to mention that the one who saved was a princess.
After being rescued, Her Royal Highness did not express anything to Lynch throughout the whole process, and did not even say thank you, as if she was full of arrogance as a matter of course, but it was precisely because of this that these bigwigs became more serious.
Even Lynch, who was so slow, realized that something was wrong with Her Royal Highness after she came down from the balcony, not to mention these people who were smart. When they found that Her Royal Highness even showed deliberate goodwill to Natalie and Diana, they were more certain of the current situation.
Moreover, they also saw the old duke.
After experiencing the scene on the balcony, this old fox was really not affected at all, and even the pipe in his mouth became more fragrant. The only change was that he became more friendly to Lynch, even more enthusiastic than to his own grandson. Before he started talking about business, he didn't even mention business, but patted Lynch's arm like a good grandfather, which made Lynch's hair stand on end and he wanted to kick this old man away.
The bigwigs knew His Excellency the Duke even better. The old man didn't behave like this to his own grandson, so they believed that as long as Her Royal Highness the Princess and His Royal Highness the Duke didn't fall, these three people would definitely become bigwigs in the kingdom in the future, much higher than them.
Lynch and Natalie did not hide anything and described everything that had just happened in detail. In fact, they also stumbled upon each other's conspiracy by accident. If it weren't for good luck, they would not have discovered the problem earlier than others.
This was obviously Lynch's statement, with the unique humility and low-keyness of his previous life, but no one present took it seriously, even the two senior old men.
Maybe there was a certain amount of chance involved in going to the animal training grounds, but when he found something was not right, he went to investigate, quickly understood the situation after entering the other world, realized the other party's purpose at the first time, rushed into the castle and confronted three people on the ground, and finally successfully rescued the princess. None of these things can be explained by luck.
However, through the descriptions of the two people, the preliminary judgment has been made, and the conclusions reached by the high-level strong and the security personnel have been drawn together.
According to Chairman Ole, this is the effect of a destructive-level artifact. The conditions for use are very harsh, and it takes a long time to set up. The other party used the cover of the beast to complete it. After the remote activation, an overlapping space was created around the castle, and the three assassins used this space to sneak into the castle. But even the effect of a destructive-level artifact cannot guarantee safety when facing a high-level one, so the assassin did not dare to pass by the two old men, but chose to fall from the sky.
As for the identities of the three direct assassins, there are also results. One is the soul-distracted person of the Lord of the Mist, the God of the Falling God, one is the soul-distracted person who apostatized from the Lord of the Sky, the main god, and the other is the apostate of the Church of the Sun. The archbishop of the Church of the Sun has been invited overnight to confirm the identity of the other party.
Although the purpose of the other party's assassination and the mastermind behind the scenes cannot be confirmed for the time being and further investigation is needed, everyone has more or less guesses in their hearts.
Unfortunately, using the power of the scorching sun to kill the princess in public cannot ease the conflict between the royal power and the secular parliament. As long as the princess is killed in public, with the push of those who are interested, not only will the parliament still be involved, but even theocracy will join in, making the conflict more complicated and intense.
Lynch could only sigh. There is nothing wrong with having lofty ideals, but first of all, intelligence must keep up, otherwise being used by others and still being self-indulgent will only make people laugh. Fortunately, Her Royal Highness was rescued in the end, and there is still room for easing the conflict, which is a blessing in disguise.
But in any case, Her Royal Highness's mission on this visit was successfully completed. She didn't need to show up too much at today's ball, and there wouldn't be too many problems with safety, which meant that tonight's ball had a happy ending.
At least she was successfully rescued tonight.
At the end of the meeting, Lynch couldn't help but smile with relief.
However, the next moment, the princess, who hadn't talked to him much since the incident, came over and asked a strange question in front of Natalie and Diana.
"Sir Lynch Leviev, you should know what happens after the fearless hero in the story saves the princess?"
"Huh?"
Lynch was confused by the question and stared blankly at the three gazes meeting in the air, emitting sparks more intense than the sun and the moon.
Who am I? Where am I? What happened?
