Skeleton King

Nou caressed the mane of the wind horse, as if to comfort him.Ace was very dissatisfied, he was very dissatisfied, he still had grass on his head, so he accused Nou, "You did it on purpose!"

Nuoou looked indifferent, "The Gale Horse is frightened."

Ace was so angry that he didn't want to talk, so he wanted to find someone else. There was a little brown horse behind Ace. Ace was about to ask, "Will you fight for a horse?" The wind horse trotted forward two steps, and Ace subconsciously Wanting to avoid the blast horse, his hand accidentally brushed the little brown horse's buttocks, and the little brown horse trotted forward for a while as if frightened.

Nuo Ou sat on the Gale Horse and glanced coldly at the Georgian Knights.When Ace was looking at his companions, everyone avoided Ace, as if worried that Ace would touch their horse's buttocks.

Ace rolled his eyes angrily, he put his hands on the saddle of the Gale Horse, and got on the horse. Ace hugged Nuoou's waist tightly, "Don't throw me off again."

Noah snorted.

Nuo Ou stroked the Gale Horse's mane with his hand, "How do I know what it's thinking?" Nuo Ou seemed to be talking about the Gale Horse, but also seemed to be speaking to someone.

Ace didn't pay attention at all, but just hugged Nou's waist tightly.It was Nou, who felt a little uncomfortable being hugged by Ace, and said, "Loosen your hands."

Ace: "No."

Ace is like an octopus, with his head attached to Nou's back.

Nuoou had nothing to do with him, Prince Xiben was already calling for them to pass, so Nuoou had to take his "pendant" to ride the horse together.

When everyone in the Georgia Knights saw Princess Fenfur, they wanted to dismount and salute.Prince Xiben waved his hand and said, "No need. The gates of the city are about to be closed. It's important to advance into the city."

Princess Fenfur didn't seem to care too much.Sykes Richter, the head of the Royal Knights Guards, personally escorted Princess Fenfur into the carriage. After getting on the carriage, Princess Fenfell showed Sykes a shy and sweet smile.

Ace still involuntarily turned his gaze to the direction of the carriage.

Nou couldn't bear it anymore and said, "That's Princess Fenfur, the most beloved daughter of His Majesty Ludwig IV."

Ace was dumbfounded and didn't know why, "Huh?"

Nou: "The head of the Royal Guard Knights, Sykes Richter, has been living in the palace since he appeared in the imperial capital ten years ago, and grew up with Princess Fenfur. It is rumored in the imperial capital that Princess Fuer fell in love with him."

It was then that Ace seemed to be hit, and became a little sullen.

After Nuoou and Prince Xiben entered the city, Prince Xiben invited Nuoou to his mansion, but Nuoou declined, "Your Highness, I sent someone to the imperial capital a few days ago. I haven't been back to the Duke Green's mansion for a long time. Hearing that I'm coming back, the old housekeeper and the others are looking forward to it, and I don't want to let them down."

What Nuo Ou said was not a lie. In recent years, except for the occasional lodging by Mellon University scholars, only the housekeepers and servants cleaned the Duke Green's Mansion in the imperial capital every day.Although the Duke Green's mansion is still clean and tidy, a mansion without an owner is like a dusty jewel, no matter how gorgeous it is inside, it still looks dusty.

Even if it wasn't like this, on the first day Nuo Ou arrived in the imperial capital, he wouldn't stay at Prince Xiben's mansion.This kind of political inclination is too obvious. Even if Nuo Ou has to stand in the power struggle, it is not now.

Prince Xiben was as personable as ever, "Then I will send Fenfur back to the palace first. I haven't seen my father for a long time."

……

In the Duke Green's mansion, the old butler's expression on seeing Noou's eyes was not enough to describe with tears in his eyes, "Young master...you are finally back...since the master left... oh, sorry, I shouldn't mention the master ...But the Duke Green Mansion, as well as us, have been waiting for you for too long."

Nuoou's brows and eyes are faint. For many years, he is no longer that crying child. He has walked carefully step by step to the present. Became a mighty knight.In the near future, he will also become the Duke of Green, truly inheriting everything his father left him.

And the sharp sword in his hand will also protect the one he loves, and the one he loves will also become his armor, protecting him from open swords and hidden arrows.

Nuo looked at this familiar yet unfamiliar mansion. When he was young, he had stayed here for several years, and here he saw his only family member for the last time——his sister, Bernadette Green. Hopefully, he can bring Bernadette home again.

The firewood in the fireplace was burning vigorously, bringing some heat to the slightly cool autumn leaves. The owner of the Duke Green Mansion announced his return, "It's all right. I'm back."

The old housekeeper: "The master bedroom and the second bedroom have been cleaned. Young master, where do you live?"

The master bedroom is the bedroom of the original Duke Green, and the second bedroom is the room where Nuo Ou lived in when he was a child.

Nuo Ou gave the cloak on his body to the servant, and said: "I live in the master bedroom, Ace, can you live in the second bedroom?" After getting Ace's consent, Nuo Ou introduced to the old housekeeper: "Ace Neumann, my dear friend, I invited him to stay at home for a while."

Under the leadership of the old butler, all the servants in the mansion saluted Ace.

Ace smiled, but was distracted.

Nou looked at him coldly, and settled the people around Ace, Bill, Angelica, George, Gerhard and the others.

Ace went down to the second bedroom under the leadership of the male servant, but Nuo Ou didn't let the old housekeeper lead the way, and went to the master bedroom by himself, "I still don't remember what the house looks like."

Hearing Nuo'ou's words, the old butler's tears fell, he hurriedly took out a handkerchief, wiped away the tears, and said vaguely: "I'm old, there's nothing I can do." Leave a sad time for the old housekeeper.

Under the influence of the old housekeeper, Nuo Ou felt a little sad, but when he opened the door of the small study and saw the person waiting for him behind the desk in the small study, Nuo Ou couldn't feel sad anymore.

Nuo Ou's tone was normal, but much lighter than before, "How did you find this place?"

The old god Ace sat on the chair behind the desk, and said indifferently: "The layout of the noble mansion is similar." Then Ace raised the invitation on his hand, "Many people invited you to the banquet."

Nou didn't hide anything from him. At this time, Ace flipped through Nou's things without much scruples.

Nou walked to Ace, opened a few invitations casually, and threw them aside, "I will let the old housekeeper reject them."

Only two invitations were put aside by Nou.

Ace opened the two invitations and looked at them. One was from Prince Xiben, who invited Nou to go hunting next week; the other was from Princess Mary, who had a ball at Rose Castle three days later, and she hoped Nou would appreciate it.

Ace: "Prince Xiben is fine, Princess Mary's ball..."

Nou's eyelids drooped slightly, and his long eyelashes fluttered like the wings of a butterfly, covering up the look in his eyes, "Bernadette is still at Rose Castle. She has been taken care of by Princess Mary for many years."

Ace knew, if it wasn't for that damned uncle Nou.At that time, Nuo Ou would not leave Bernadette alone in the imperial capital because of his youth and ignorance. For many years, no matter how many letters Nuo Ou wrote, Bernadette did not return to Green Castle.

Although Bernadette's letter stated that she did not want to go back to Green Castle and that she was reluctant to part with her friends in the imperial capital, but who knew the truth?

Sending Bernadette to the imperial capital back then became Nuo Ou's greatest regret.

Ace held Nou's hand comfortingly, "Let's bring her back together."

Nou looked back at Ace and held his hand instead.

……

In the world of the dead, the wind is bleak, and the sky is gray and black forever. From time to time, only two dead leaves will be rolled into the air. Others, this plane seems to be static, without any changes.

However, there is life in this wilderness.

If that can be called vitality.

There are two skeleton soldiers the size of a knight order standing on both sides of the wilderness.The knights on the left are larger, and these skeleton soldiers are more powerful, but not only do they not have standard armor, but even their skeleton horses are not very disciplined, and they will bite each other from time to time.The knight order on the right has only 3000 skeleton soldiers. Except for the leading skeleton knight commander, all of them are level [-] skeleton soldiers behind them, but the armor on their bodies all emits a faint black light, and there are barbs on the joints. Very hideous.

The Skull Knights on the left belong to the undead lords Bacon and Reagan, and the Skeleton Knights on the right are from Evernight City.

Three days ago, the emissaries of the undead lords Bacon and Reagan arrived in Eternal Night City with letters from the two undead lords.The undead lord Bacon and General Reagan met with General Arnold in Eternal Night City. If this letter is only surprising, then the star map on the back of the envelope has to attract people's attention.

Because the dead world has no stars.

There is no reason why Bacon and Reagan, the lords of the dead, would have stars painted on their envelopes.

Ever since Bill made the star potion and the stars appeared in the dead world, General Arnold began to pay attention to the information of the dead world like never before.Fortunately, this star not only appeared in the vicinity of Eternal Night City, but also can be seen in the entire dead world.

Although there are undead lords who suspect Eternal Night City, the number is not many.Canterlot, and other cities with magical apothecaries, have received more attention.

But Reagan, Bacon, the undead lords closest to Eternal Night City, and General Arnold are not sure if they can hide it from them.

General Arnold contacts Ace.

Ace ordered Bill to stay in this world and came to the dead world alone.Both Ace and General Arnold agreed to go to the appointment of the undead lords Bacon and Reagan. They didn't know how many secrets the undead lords Bacon and Reagan had mastered about the vision.

Did they know that the vision came from Evernight City?

Did they know that the star potion that appeared in Evernight City can strengthen the soul fire of undead creatures?

What are their plans for this interview?Will it be an ambush, or a deal?

Ace looked at the endless, continuous army of skeletons.

Soon, he will have an answer.
