[Comprehensive] The Journey of the Protagonist

When the carriage rumbled into Brant City, the soldiers guarding the gate glanced at the five-color flower family crest on the carriage, put away their spears respectfully, and let go of the road.

Little Red Riding Hood who was driving turned his head in surprise and asked quietly: "Your Majesty, you have already arranged manpower in this city?"

There was silence in the carriage, and it took a long time for Little Red Riding Hood to hear Su Xuan's unrecognizable voice: "My mother has a younger sister who married a businessman whose home is in this city."

He didn't say any more.

Little Red Riding Hood stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to ask any more questions.

The carriage passed through the noisy streets, the noisy market, and the quiet cypress forest. After driving for an unknown amount of time, it finally stopped in front of a beautiful manor. Earl Karl with two beautiful mustaches was waiting in front of the door.

This handsome middle-aged man with fine lines at the corners of his eyes was Carl White who moved to Brant with a lot of wealth four years ago.People guessed that he had just returned from an adventure in the distant sea and dug up the treasure buried by the Pirate King. That's why he was able to be so wealthy. With the huge magic power of this money, he forcibly smashed out a baronship from this country.The envious poor fantasized that he bathed in gold coins every day, and the envious nobles secretly hated him as a vulgar and shallow upstart.

But none of this can be denied. After all, he still gained a firm foothold in the upper class society of this country.

The servants greeted the carriage and passed the well-manicured gardens. The carriage stopped beside a fountain where a mermaid girl was playing with water. Su Xuan gave a warm hug: "Auston, you have grown so tall!"

His tone was choked with sobs: "The last time I saw you, you hadn't reached my shoulder..." He made hand gestures and said joyfully, "I've grown up now, good! This really makes me happy! "

He patted Su Xuan on the shoulder, raised his hand, lowered his voice, and said loudly to the servants waiting in the courtyard: "This Auston, who came to visit me from afar, is my most beloved nephew. , be sure to respect me as much as you do!"

After speaking, he embraced Su Xuan and walked towards his study.

After the study door was closed, he turned around and knelt down on one knee towards Su Xuan: "Carl White has seen His Majesty!"

"Why did His Majesty come to Brant in person? This is a city only a small country away from the Kingdom of the Night. The Black King is cruel and cruel, and members of his intelligence organization Night Crow are spread all over the continent. He never treats spies from other countries. They are all extremely ruthless and never show mercy. Please take care of yourself, Your Majesty, and don't stay for long!" He begged eagerly.

Su Xuan stood in front of the tall bookshelf with his hands behind his back, and just said lightly: "I have my own calculations."

The king, who had always been indifferent to indifference, just gave him a shallow glance, and asked in a tone of indifference: "How is that girl?"

"Your Majesty, you mean Cinderella?" Carl still hadn't got up, he sighed a little: "The girl was also implicated in the matter of her aunt, the Red Queen, and her mother wanted to rescue her sister, the Red Queen, but unfortunately failed. After his death, even the news of his death can only be said to be due to illness, his father had no choice but to marry the current Countess who is suspected of being involved in the Kingdom of the Night, and he has nothing to do with the fact that his stepmother bullied his own daughter, so he can only turn a blind eye."

"After her father died too, it became more difficult for her, and the two daughters of the Countess, Charlotte and Kitty, treated her worse than their own servants, and gave her a dusty garret, There is endless work to be done every day, and once she is in a bad mood, she will toss and tease her unreasonably. But even so, the eyeliner of the Night Crow Organization has never left this family. Since the child of the Red Queen, the little prince Lucky The Black King never extinguished his anger for a day, his night ravens swept across the entire continent, and the knights were ready to attack at the border, causing the entire continent to be in turmoil."

Su Xuan lowered his eyes, snorted softly, and didn't express any opinion on it. He changed the subject very naturally: "The Principality of Bowen is very lively recently."

Carl also replied naturally: "His Highness, the only prince of the Principality of Bowen, has returned from studying abroad. He has reached the age where he can marry a wife. The impatient old king decided to hold a grand ball and invited young girls from all over the country to come. Participate... If Your Majesty, you are also willing to meet a beautiful girl, I just have an invitation here..."

"Heh." Su Xuan glanced at him with a half-smile, and Karl immediately stopped talking.

This is an extremely smart and tactful person. It can be seen from the first remonstrance that he is good at guessing the mind of the superior. Sometimes some slightly offensive words of concern will not anger a wise monarch, but will make him more angry. Can show his unfeigned loyalty and genuine sincere concern.

How could it be so simple for a person who was able to survive round after round of searches by Night Crows?

In these five years of growth, Su Xuan has completely devoted most of his energy to the ambush of the intelligence personnel. In a war, the importance of intelligence can almost determine the outcome of a game.

"When's the dance?" he asked.

"Starting tomorrow night, three days in a row." Carl said respectfully.

On a moonlit night full of clear light over the lake, in the quiet, vast and mysterious night, Cinderella, wearing her gray dress covered with ashes, came carefully and unobtrusively to the hazel tree she planted by herself. Leaning against the big tree, in this silent night alone, I gently hummed the song that my mother often sang when she was coaxing herself to sleep before her death.

The surroundings seemed to be illuminated, a soft and warm light. She raised her hand lightly, and a snow-white pigeon landed on her slender wrist. It was combing the feathers on its wings leisurely, the size of a black bean. Looking at her, he said hello: "Hello, Cinderella, we meet again. How are you doing today?"

A small hamster rolling over stretched out its paws, stroked its long whiskers, and looked at her carefully with its small black eyes: "It seems that life is still the same as before~"

"But ah~" It curled up and rolled again, rolled onto Cinderella's skirt, patted its paws, choked up a piece of dust, and sang: "But ah, you can't cry~"

"You must not cry~"

"Crying is failure, crying is admitting defeat, crying is a kind of useless weakness." The hamster squeaked: "You are a fairy child, you never compromise with weakness!"

Another brown-haired little milk dog ran and rolled over, with a little dirt on the tip of its nose. It shook its head, sneezed, came over, and licked her with its moist tongue. The back of his hand, trying to comfort her in this way.

The dove flapped its wings and took off, it landed on the hanging branch of the hazel tree, and whispered the last words: "As long as the watching eyes don't disappear, you can only be Cinderella! "

The light went out all at once, and the pigeons, hamsters and puppies disappeared completely at once. Cinderella lowered her arms and sighed sadly.She sat down and hummed the song just now again.

"She is really a very strong girl, isn't she?" A soothing female voice sounded beside Su Xuan's ear, and added with a slight smile: "Besides, she is also a very talented young fairy."

Su Xuan turned his head and looked at the uninvited guest. This tall woman in a brown long gown, with flaxen hair floating freely, had a pair of very radiant eyes. She smiled lightly and comfortably, and strode Mai Lai has a free and easy temperament that is completely different from all women in this era and is unique to this world. When people see her for the first time, it is like seeing the free and unrestrained wind in the sky.

Her eyes are too bright, more dazzling than the stars tonight.Her person is also too egotistical, like a big tree that only cares about withering, like a boat that wanders at will, like a leaf in the wind, like an eagle among the clouds.

She smiled lightly and said, "We finally meet, my former little prince."

"You are Dorothy." Su Xuan said in a casual tone, "You have seen me before."

"It's not that I heard your message in the wind, but I saw you from a distance in the game world." She smiled and blinked: "Otherwise, why do you think you were in the bubble set by the red dragon?" When you were floating in the bubble, did you meet the r who could release you? And he was the mermaid king who was so proud that he never wanted to hurt the cubs?"

"It seems that I owe you a thank you." Su Xuan tilted his head and thought for a while, then he raised his hand and took off the silver mask on his face, revealing a pale face.Five years passed by, and his somewhat round face was completely opened back then, revealing stern lines, with some deeply hidden sharpness, a head of soft black short hair obediently stuck to his ears, covering his delicate With long eyebrows, his face is as cool as moonlight, his eyes are like cold stars and moon, his lips are thin and sharp, and his whole person has a lofty and indifferent demeanor.

"You should already know the reason why I came to you." He raised his eyes, and there was a slight coolness in his eyes: "Do you agree?"

Dorothy took a deep look at him, and suddenly smiled: "Do you know that in the game world, the Black King is at the R level?"

"That's God's business." Su Xuan's tone remained unchanged: "I fear God, but I never blindly believe in him."
