"Your Excellency the Grand Duke? Your Excellency the Grand Duke?!"
Seeing Grand Duchess Veronica sitting on the throne, Krober couldn't help but shout a few times.
“Ah…ah?”
Veronica, who was in a daze, was awakened by a familiar voice.
Looking at Krober standing below, looking at her with a face full of hope, Veronica replied subconsciously:
"I missed you, too."
“???”
After being hit by a straight ball, Kroeber felt his face getting a little hot instantly.
What's going on?
Didn't I just ask hello? I haven't said anything yet!
Why did the Grand Duke start teasing me as soon as he came up?
Let's look at it from Kroeber's perspective.
When Krober arrived at the throne room, he knelt and saluted.
"Your Excellency the Grand Duke."
This was considered a greeting. Normally, the etiquette between Krober and the Grand Duke was not complicated.
The main reason was that the Grand Duke thought the formalities were too troublesome, and she had to follow tradition to respond, which delayed her from handling official business.
That's why we make such demands on Krober, to keep things simple.
Krober, who was kneeling on one knee, did not hear Grand Duchess Veronica asking him to stand up, so he continued to look for topics to talk about.
After all, he couldn't let the words fall to the ground.
"My lord, I have been away from the throne for several months. I miss your heroic glory so much that it often lingers in my mind and keeps me awake."
That’s what it means, but it’s mainly to flatter the Grand Duke.
But the problem is that there are no idioms like "toss and turn in sleep" or "haunted in mind" in the common language, so Kroeber can only translate it through free translation.
The general meaning is this.
"Your Excellency, I miss your wise and mighty demeanor very much. I have always kept your powerful figure in my heart. Thinking back on it makes me so excited that I can't sleep in the middle of the night."
Krober didn't think there was anything strange about this sentence. As the Grand Duke's most loyal subject, it was not surprising that he was conquered by the Grand Duke's powerful strength and heroic posture.
But Grand Duke Veronica's high-frequency processor had obviously automatically filtered out some of the gorgeous words and only received the simple emotions contained therein.
Hmm... maybe this is the instinct of a ruler, to eliminate useless words from speech and to understand the most valuable points in speech with keen perception.
So, removing those words meant to flatter, what Grand Duchess Veronica's brain automatically accepted was the following.
"I missed you so much that I couldn't sleep at night."
Oops, what a beautiful misunderstanding!
Grand Duke Veronica, who subconsciously answered what she was thinking, also reacted at this time and secretly despised herself for starting to attack herself after only a few months of separation.
This was strange. She clearly remembered that she responded to Krober's greeting. Could it be that she had been too busy recently and had hallucinations?
Grand Duke Veronica rubbed her brow tiredly.
She had very little time to rest during this period, and was almost always dealing with official business. Sometimes, she also missed the days when Krober was by her side.
At least it won't be so boring.
However, when she glanced at Krober's flushed face below, Veronica's fatigue miraculously improved a lot at this moment.
Veronica smiled, an expression that had rarely appeared since she returned to Saint Gold Castle.
Kroeber's arrival provided her with a lot of positive emotional value.
And this is why she treats Krober specially.
Who wouldn't like a cute, sensible, beautiful, sweet-spoken, loyal little blonde rose who sometimes likes to stick to her?
If Krober's fighting spirit had not been influenced by her, she would never have sent Krober out to be a lord.
Maybe I really remembered it wrong.
It seems that even magical beings cannot handle government affairs at a high intensity all night long. Even if the body can withstand it, the consumption of the mind and spirit may be an unbearable burden.
At the very least, this kind of trance-like feeling should not appear in her, a powerful golden dragon knight.
Let me ask again...
"Ahem."
He cleared his throat, not sure if it was to ease his own embarrassment or to get Krober's attention.
"Baron Krober, you have come to Saint Gold Castle in such a hurry, but what urgent matter do you want to report?"
Finally, let’s talk business!
After all, Krober had been training outside for some time, and he quickly suppressed his emotions in his heart and told Grand Duchess Veronica everything he saw and heard on the Holy Beast Island.
"You mean to say that you found traces of two dragons fighting on the Holy Beast Island, and there are records about me on the stone tablet recorded by their tribe?"
Veronica fell into deep thought after hearing the news. Since she established the principality, she rarely rode Vivian out to play.
If it is true as Kroeber said, then this island should be one of the stops when he traveled abroad in his youth.
At that time, I had no idea of founding a country. I just wanted to ride Vivian to see the whole world and understand how vast the world is.
At that time, we traveled on the sea for several years, stopping and starting, and discovered many new islands.
But the shipbuilding technology at that time was so poor that even near-shore sailing was difficult, let alone traveling so far.
So I memorized the approximate locations of these islands and announced these coordinates after the shipbuilding technology matured.
However, Krober's words that she had personally killed the "Messenger of the Sea God" aroused her curiosity.
