At this time, Kaiping, who was thinking silently, spoke: "Is Miss Lena in the castle now?"

"No, considering the current situation, the castle is more dangerous. She is hiding with Mr. William. There are guards to protect her, so she must be careful."

Kaiping began to think again.

Seeing him like this, Mars said: "That's right" and turned to Olet.

"In the end, is Allen the forerunner?"

"Well, it looks like he's back with the remnants of the terrorists."

"Really? It's getting more and more suspicious..."

Kaiping, who was watching the conversation between the two, suddenly thought of something: "Mr. Allen, is that so?"

Olett asked: "Huh?"

"Directing other people's attention, that's what he seems to do."

"What do you mean?" At Mars' question, Kaiping smiled and said, "He may have another goal."

The atmosphere in the bar is cool and quiet, like an early morning. Here, Kaiping and Noel were sitting on the opposite table, staring at each other, and the store manager was also sitting on the table. Through them, the aroma of coffee filled the air.

"I understand what you said..." the store manager said carefully. His expression was very serious.

"But it's great that you're okay. It looks like you were hit quite hard." The store manager's eyes fell on Kaiping with his swollen cheeks.

Kaiping shook his head: "No, it's all because I didn't notify Noel and she was angry..."

Noel sat next to him and gave him a gentle punch. Keping did a somersault and immediately stood up nonchalantly.

"it's not a big deal."

"Although I don't think nothing happened."

The store manager responded with a wry smile, and then continued: "I don't want to involve Lena in danger. This is what I really think."

"Sure enough, that's the case." Kaiping nodded.

The store manager also nodded.

“Although there are guards around, there is still considerable danger.

"We will do our best to protect her, but..."

"It can't be absolutely guaranteed, right? Even if there is still danger, it would be a bit stupid to voluntarily join it."

"Yes." Kaiping lowered his head.

The store manager scratched his head and said to Kaiping who lowered his head: "Does the king have anything to say?"

"I'm checking with Mr. Riott."

"No reply yet..." Kaiping nodded.

The store manager looked at the ceiling in confusion, then turned his gaze back to Kaiping.

"Lena hates getting hurt because of herself. I think she's going to say no before I say it?"

"Can you persuade her?"

The store manager frowned and expressed trouble: "Okay, you can try to persuade me, but don't have too high expectations, right?"

Kaiping paused for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "Please."

"Well, I will talk to her today or tomorrow."

Kaiping bowed again and said: "Thank you." Then he reached out and took out a small bag from his arms and put it in front of the store manager: "This is what you ordered."

The store manager looked at the bag in surprise: "It's done. I feel a bit sorry."

"It doesn't matter, because sir seems to be very happy making it, so I don't mind." Kaiping smiled, and then his face turned gloomy: "Although I have made some adjustments in this area, it is not recommended."

"I get it. Only use it in emergencies."

"Please do this." After saying that, Kaiping stood up.

Noel stood up too, looking down at the bag. She hesitated for a moment and finally asked, "What is that?"

The store manager picked up the bag and stood up: "This is my trump card," he said with a gentle smile.

In the dark room, a little light suddenly came on. The open flame flickered at the fingertips and soon went out. Then it suddenly lights up again. While he was playing with the flames, the door opened. It was Lena who poked her head out: "Mr. Ivan, the meal is ready."

Ivan, who was called, blew out the flame on his hand and stood up from the chair: "Oh, I am so happy to be able to eat the food cooked by the princess." Ivan said happily, and Lena laughed.

When I walked to the table, I found that the food was already placed on the table. Ivan was a little surprised because there were three people.

"That? William is going back today, right?"

"Yeah, did you forget?"

"Oh, I'm just saying, I've been feeling a bit... about dates lately."

Lena nodded with satisfaction: "It will be like this if you can't go out for several days in a row."

Ivan looked out the window and saw the afterglow of the setting sun, looking lonely. Seeing Lena looking like this, Ivan became very serious: "Miss, please be patient a little longer."

Lena nodded slightly. Then he continued: "Listen to me."

"Mr. Ivan, don't you get bored being my guard all the time?"

"Super boring." Ivan said frankly.

But he smiled and said: "Although it is boring. But I like you very normally, Miss. Although it is boring, I am also enjoying it, right?"

"Yeah?"

"And it's such a joy to be able to protect someone as important as Parentyne."

"Yes, indeed."

silence.

Lena turned her eyes and looked at Ivan again. Ivan smiled, understanding what she wanted to ask: "I used to hate the guild I belonged to."

"Is that the guild you joined before?"

Ivan nodded: "As long as it is for money, he will not hesitate to accept dirty commissions. A group without conviction. Even so, because of the secret relationship with the nobles, the country cannot openly criticize."

From his disgusted expression, Lena could feel his sincerity.

"I was already bound by those inescapable shackles when I realized I had joined the wrong place. That's when I met Parentyne."

Lena waited silently for the next step.

"'You have talent and belief, don't corrupt in a place like that', he pulled me out by force." Ivan smiled, "Even though he has passed away, I still can't help respecting him."

Lena also smiled happily, "Really?"

Just then, the door opened and footsteps came from the corridor.

"I'm back." The store manager showed his face.

The store manager looked at Ivan: "Is there anything abnormal?" he asked.

Ivan shook his head, "Nothing," and then turned to Lena.

"Lena, it's sudden, but we are leaving here in four days."

Lena's eyes widened, "Huh? What's going on?"

The store manager frowned: "It's a little long to talk about. Let's eat first." He showed a sad expression.

It was a peaceful night. When everyone had fallen asleep, a carriage left the imperial city. The carriage moved forward along the road illuminated by the moonlight, but soon the carriage entered a dark forest.

After moving forward for a while, the carriage suddenly stopped because a few rough people blocked the road. The driver of the carriage looked at these people through the gap in his turban and said: "Will you please get out of the way?"

Then, the man standing in front showed a despicable smile and said: "Haha, put down the things inside and I will let you go."

"That's worthless."

The man was angry at the driver's answer: "So, I want to keep the princess here."
