Krober signaled to Hyel to quickly have the light brown griffin cub brought from the settlement.
He stood there and waited with the Grand Duke.
Griffin seemed to feel the heaviness of the atmosphere and didn't dare to jump around anymore.
Through an inner contract, Krober told Griffin that if he wanted to play, he could run to the open space at the back to play.
Griffin shook his head and stood firmly beside Krober, facing the heavy atmosphere with him.
"Good boy, I love you for real!"
Kroeber was silently moved and had already started thinking about how to give Griffin a snack.
Grand Duke Veronica seemed to be thinking about something at this time and ignored Krober and Griffin.
Some time passed like this, and finally Hyer returned here with the light brown griffin cub in his arms.
"Your Excellency, the griffin cub has arrived."
Hyer reported to Krober while panting. It was obvious that he had been tormented by the griffin on the way. Even with his physique as a formal knight, he could still be panting like this.
"Go and take a rest. I'll take care of this."
Let the exhausted Hyer go and rest aside, and leave the rest to him - Krober Amethyst Rose!
"Your Excellency, this is the griffin cub."
Krober held the light brown griffin cub in his arms, showing it off perfectly to Grand Duchess Veronica's eyes.
Looking at the little griffin in front of her, Veronica's eyes were misty, but with her strong self-control, she suppressed her emotions.
She placed her hand on the griffin cub's head, feeling the long-lost yet familiar sensation.
At that moment, her memory seemed to go back to her teenage years.
At that time, she had just turned sixteen, and her royal brother gave her a griffin cub with light brown feathers as a pet.
And she also took great care of the little fellow. As she grew up, it gradually grew stronger and transformed into a fantasy beast.
Veronica thus became a phantom beast knight, and with her own efforts, she fought a mental battle with Vivian and successfully defeated it to become a reserve dragon knight.
She originally thought that her life would be as smooth as before.
But who could have imagined that the coup that Veronica would remember most vividly in her life...had begun.
Veronica lost most of her things in that war.
Her friends, her family, the soldiers loyal to her, and her most loyal companion...
She also learned a lot: suspicion, questioning, cruelty, and... strength.
Her brother successfully gained the recognition of the magic dragon, the Emerald Dragon, fought a battle of minds and won. As a result, her brother was officially crowned and became the king of the Emerald Kingdom.
Since the coup, Veronica took Vivian on a trip for decades.
At the call of her brother, she returned to the Emerald Kingdom and asked her brother to establish her own country.
Fortunately, her brother the king still loved her as much as he did when she was a child. Not only did he allow her to go to the southern wilderness to open up, he also bestowed upon her the title of Grand Duke.
The unusual movement in her arms quickly pulled Veronica back from her immersion.
It turned out that the little guy in Veronica's arms felt uncomfortable being held like that and started to make a fuss.
But how could its tender body break Veronica's dragon knight-level defense? After struggling for a long time, it was just tickling Veronica.
"You're so naughty..."
Veronica returned the griffin in her arms to Krober, and she was obviously dissatisfied with the interruption of her reminiscence.
Krober took the griffin into his arms, and while coaxing the little guy in his arms, he also had to coax (crossed out) and comfort Grand Duchess Veronica's mood.
"If the Grand Duke likes it, how about I give this little fellow to you?"
It's just a griffin cub. If the Grand Duke wants it, Krober can give it to her.
Anyway, Krober could only contract one, and this one was originally planned to stay in the territory and wait to be rewarded to his subordinates.
Veronica looked at the little griffin in Krober's arms and nodded hesitantly.
Ever since her partner died, she no longer had the thought of contracting a partner.
But now, after seeing the little guy who looked like his friend, he couldn't help but nod in agreement.
