Sean's departure was scheduled for the third day...
That morning, almost half of the people in Dansu City came to see him off. Of course, people like King Dansu were also among the crowd. In fact, King Dansu himself seemed very reluctant to leave.
Even with his old body dragging, his acting skills when he was almost on his knees were amazing!
If there wasn't a sad sign above their heads, Sean would have almost believed it. This family was truly born actors. It would be a shame if they didn't become entertainers... If there was a chance to invite a circus over, he would definitely let them join, otherwise it would be a waste of their talent.
"Your Highness, I don't know if you will be able to come back after this trip. I have prepared a great gift from Dansu City. It is all local specialties. If you don't mind, please accept it."
In front of so many people, how could Sean not accept it?
Otherwise, people will think that I am a conceited prince!
Alas~
"Thank you for your hard work, old king!" He patted the other person's shoulder. It was not appropriate to do so based on their generation, but Sean no longer respected the other person as much as he did before.
Especially after finding out about General Cumberland, he has been wary of this seemingly harmless old king. This kind of person seems more dangerous than Emperor Ser of Kselke. After all, Emperor Ser is powerful and although he has political ambitions, he does things in a more open way.
You never know when this smiling tiger will stab you in the back.
"Of course, I will bring prosperity back to the people of Dansu..." he said with a smile.
He even shouted out to all the citizens who came to deliver the letter.
"I swear once again to the Prince of the Desert, heir to the eternal dynasty under the protection of the Sun God, the victor, the guide who leads the people out of the darkness... the wise prince, the brave prince, the heroic prince."
etc.
Sean's eyes narrowed into a line.
Who wrote these words of praise? It sounds so awkward, but the other party read them with great excitement. Every time he said a word, the people cheered, and even the soldiers around him cheered.
Sean looked back helplessly at the place behind him.
The people were shouting their names loudly, which showed that their prestige had probably reached its highest peak so far!
Frelia stood behind him with a dignified demeanor, a faint smile on her face. Lucille, on the other side, didn't show much expression, but the sign "Excited!" above her head suggested she was also influenced by the surroundings.
What's so exciting about this?
Okay, okay, okay!
Sean could only bless the other party according to the etiquette of the Jagun royal family, and also instructed the other party to manage the city well.
Then Princess Sylvie from Dansu personally gave Sean a hand-woven scarf, which is the kind that can be wrapped around the head and cover the face. It is actually quite commonly used in the desert, especially at night when the wind and sand are strong. Otherwise, the hair will be full of fine sand overnight.
"Take this, Your Highness," Sylvie said in a low voice.
In front of everyone, of course Sean would accept it...
He picked up his things and, too lazy to talk to these people anymore, quickly got on the carriage and left with the group.
The dragon knight in the sky also took off at this time.
It is as grand as when they came... and this kind of scene will also inspire the enthusiasm of the people and make them cheer.
Sean opened the curtain of the carriage and waved goodbye to the crowd.
By chance, in a corner, because of his favorability, Sean noticed Jim Lyle standing in the crowd... Today, he was wearing casual clothes like an ordinary citizen and mixed in with them. He waved at him near the place where soldiers on both sides blocked the road.
Sean has handed over the matter of continuing the investigation of King Dansu's family to him, and last night he asked General Marlow for a badge belonging to the Dansu garrison and gave it to him. In this way, Jim will have the convenience of entering and leaving the palace freely, which should be more conducive to the investigation.
He estimated that the next time the other party would make a move would be when he went to see the old general again. As long as he could seize the opportunity, with his investigative ability, he should be able to find some clues...
As a prince of the desert, it is impossible for him to stay in such a city and wait forever. Sitting in the capital and letting his subordinates do things is also a test of his ability as a person in power.
Whether one is suitable to lead the entire country can be seen in this aspect.
He gave the other person a look at the window, and without caring whether the other person understood the meaning, he retracted his gaze and lowered the curtains.
Frelia was also in the carriage...
Lucille was originally invited to ride along, but she was used to riding horses.
It took a lot of effort to persuade her to follow him to the imperial capital, and tell her to do whatever she wants.
Huh~
He let out a long sigh.
The curtain was closed, and as the carriage moved, the noise outside became much quieter, with only the friction of the axles making a loud noise.
"What's wrong? Do you feel tired even though you haven't done anything?" Frelia asked with a smile.
She was originally the leader of a group of wizards and had a deep understanding of the tedious workload every day, but these days she was actually very leisurely, or even relaxed every day. She just ate and slept, and the day passed by.
"I'm just worried, not tired."
Frelia curled her lips at Sean's quibbling look.
"You're such a chatterbox! How many times have you been lazy before?"
"That depends on the situation. If I care about it in my current status, others will definitely not care about it." Sean said.
"Wow, where did this diligent prince come from? If he goes back, he will definitely be listed in the biography."
"Don't say...it's very possible!" Looking at the other party, Sean explained seriously.
"Just be beautiful yourself. Take this... This is a gift from the princess, and it's actually handwoven, and it's so well made!"
Frelia picked up the handkerchief she had just received from the carriage and threw it into Sean's hands. To be honest, she would not do this kind of women's work. She grew up in the plateau mountains, which required women to pick up shotguns and longbows to hunt... Later, she followed the leader and used her own talents and physical advantages to learn unique combat skills.
No matter how you look at it, female workers are not my strong point.
"I have so much of this stuff in my palace that I can use it to pave the floor tiles!" Although Sean could see that Frelia was not angry, if he continued this topic, she might really get angry.
I still remember when I first arrived at Jagun, especially during my coming-of-age ceremony, many noble ladies gave me handkerchiefs and scarves, which I later gave to Illya to deal with. However, she thought it was a waste to use such good fabrics to wipe the table, so she weaved them into a curtain, which is now hung in her palace, and of course, on the dining table as well!
It’s better not to talk about this topic.
