"Maintaining a magic circle doesn't necessarily require a tremendous amount of power. Perhaps sufficient materials are enough... So I think this material is the key to success."
Coming down from the roof, Andu invited Sean to his cabin for a detailed talk.
While Sean was listening to the other party's report, he was observing the situation inside the house...
This place is just behind the cathedral and is a relatively quiet residential area. Although it is a bit dilapidated, the land price is still very expensive.
Looking at the furnishings in the room, it is simple yet full of life. It is obvious that this guy lives here on weekdays.
Maybe it's the same as I guessed at first.
This Paladin was so popular that even inside the cathedral, his admirers would probably chase him in. Even if he couldn't get in, there were women among the priests and paladins inside the cathedral. It wouldn't be nice to have them delivering gifts or knocking on my door every now and then. So I ran away to live here!
Hehe~
This person is quite upright.
If it were me, a little Paladin sister would knock on my door every night, who knows what would happen.
Ahem…
He coughed twice to make Andu, who was reporting, stop.
"It's okay, just keep talking."
Andu glanced at Sean and continued talking behind him.
"Oh... I think we should start with the materials they use."
Sean said nothing and just walked ahead...
I kept looking around. This place was very simple, but it was okay if I lived alone. At least it was much better than the strange smells in that tavern!
"Have you ever thought that the other party might have thought of this problem as well?" Sean asked back.
"I understand... but if it's deliberately embellished, it's actually easier to reveal the truth, so I'll continue investigating from this perspective."
After knowing Sean's identity, Andu spoke very respectfully, after all, he was an emperor.
Not to mention the Paladin Andu, even the leader among the Paladins is not qualified to face him directly. He has to report to the real military commander before he can talk to him. Therefore, Andu sometimes speaks unclearly when facing him.
"Since you already have a direction, then go ahead and check it out. But to prevent the news from leaking out..."
Sean thought about it and said.
"Paladin Andu."
Andu in front of him immediately understood and knelt down.
"At your service, Your Majesty!"
"From today on, I appoint you as the Grand Paladin, the leader of the Capital City Paladins. From now on, you may report directly to me at the Imperial Palace. This matter will be investigated by different individuals, including my own Survey Corps. I wish this to remain unknown to the two of us."
"I understand, Your Majesty!"
When Andu heard that he could enter the imperial city because of his identity, he thought it was a great honor for anyone.
It’s almost like getting a promotion!
"I will have the herald pass the news to the cathedral later. You can report any information you find on this matter directly to me."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After receiving affirmation, An Du became more confident.
Look at the time, it’s getting late.
I can't be out for too long, otherwise the entire imperial city will be in chaos...
These matters will be handed over to trustworthy people to handle. If the king of a country has to handle everything in person, then the people in other positions in the country will not have to do their jobs.
Looking around again...
"Is this where you live now?"
"Yes, your majesty."
It’s true.
"Why do you live in a place like this? There should be a room for you inside the cathedral." Although he had thought of various possibilities in his mind just now, Sean still wanted to hear the other party's thoughts.
Nowadays, I can reach fewer and fewer people in the public, so I often delegate power.
It's so hard to find a good seedling with some ability. Give him a little favor and a little pressure to see how he grows in the future!
After hearing Sean's question, Andu seemed to have difficulty speaking.
"If it's a private matter, you don't have to tell me."
"No...it's not a big deal, it's just...there's always someone staring at me when I practice in the cathedral every day, and I feel embarrassed!" The young man actually showed a childish and shy smile.
Holy crap!
It’s true.
Handsome guy’s troubles?
It's just outrageous!
Sean looked at the other person with contempt in his heart...
Now that her status is too high, many people are afraid to approach her. Besides, the queen is still there, so how can ordinary girls from royal families dare to say anything?
It’s not like I was a prince back then…
On the contrary, this kind of handsome guy who looks a bit ordinary is more popular.
There is no complicated background and the people are easy to get along with.
"Okay, I won't pursue these matters, but renting a house here must have cost you a lot of money, right?" Sean said.
I haven't cared about money for many years, but I remember that when I was a baron in a small town, money was a good thing and I had to save every bit of it.
How much money can a Paladin have?
"It's certainly not easy, but being here gives me time to practice Holy Light Magic."
Holy crap!
Awesome!
Sean silently gave a thumbs up in his heart.
"That's all, Great Paladin Andu... I'll wait for your good news." After saying that, he prepared to leave.
Andu originally offered to take him back, but Sean refused because he was too incompetent.
If a real fight breaks out, this Paladin is still no match for me, so I sent him back... I originally thought about going with him to see what happened to the so-called out-of-city trading market, but this is not something that can be resolved in a day or two. I don’t have that much time now, and I don’t have to go there in person to get results.
It can be replaced by other methods...
After leaving the cathedral, Sean did not go to the imperial city but to a nearby magic academy.
When Lucille was away, Igonia was in charge of everything in the academy, and she just needed a relatively quiet environment.
…………
When Igunya saw Sean again, she was obviously much more mature than before, but she still couldn't help but behave unnaturally every time they met.
Alice and the others were also there...
"His Majesty!!!"
Seeing Sean recently, the kids were not as calm as Paladin Andu. In their panic, they even made mistakes in saluting.
"No need to be so polite, I came here to find a quiet environment."
"Environment?" Ignia hurriedly gave up her seat.
Nowadays, she also changes into a slightly sexy magician's robe. Although her figure cannot be compared with Frelia and Lucille, it can still be considered another kind of charm.
"I was going to cast a spell, but it was inconvenient to be in the palace, so I came here."
"It's because of what happened last night!" Igonia said.
That happened right after the little prince was born. It seemed like there was always uncertainty wherever Sean was.
