"Do you have any solution?" Dio asked.

"No, even if Princess Melina is rescued, it won't change the current situation. Because everyone's eyes are completely fixed on her." The minister took a sip of tea.

"After the Queen's public opinion subsides, the human kingdom is likely to split into two parts. At that time, we will have to confront the Queen head-on." The minister's expression was not optimistic.

"I think there are actually other ways." Dio said, touching his chin.

"Oh? Tell me."

"How about making the queen disappear?" Dio said.

"Pfft!!!" The minister almost choked. "You are too naive. The Queen is not that easy to assassinate."

"I want to give it a try," Dio said.

"You...well, since you want to try, then give it a try." The minister also knew about Dio's bravery, so maybe it was really possible.

"Do you have any plans? I can help you." The minister said.

"I want to see the Queen up close," Dior said.

When the minister heard this, he fell into thinking. After a moment, he smiled and said: "With your reputation, it is actually easy to meet the Queen."

"But, my position is too easy to see through. The Queen won't see me at all, right?" Dior shook his head.

"So, you need to make a name for yourself in the royal city."

"As long as you do it again, it will be a miracle of one against a hundred."

"The queen will definitely come forward to see you." The minister said.

Dio nodded upon hearing this. But he knew that the royal city was different from the countryside, and the knights here were very scary.

……

Early the next morning, the legendary Cuckoo Knight actually came to the royal city.

This made the people in the royal city full of curiosity. The nobles in the royal city were not that nervous. They felt more disdain for the Cuckoo Knight.

They are not the aristocrats in the countryside, how could they be influenced by the Cuckoo Knight?

The royal family members in the city had a very bad impression of the Cuckoo Knight.

Because the Cuckoo Knight has an unclear relationship with the exiled royal family.

However, because the relationship between the two parties has not officially broken down. So they still have a surface level of politeness.

However, people also discovered that this time the cuckoo knight came alone. Neither his entourage nor the famous ladies came with him.

The Cuckoo Knight stayed in an inn in the royal city.

He waited here all morning. Except for some common people talking to him, not even a shadow of a noble was seen.

Dio sighed slightly, the nobles in the royal city were indeed very confident.

He had planned to let his enemies provoke a duel, but no one paid him any attention. It seems that now he can only do it himself.

"Who should I fight with?" Dio thought for a while, and finally, a familiar uncle came into his mind.

That was the former head of the Knights, the man who almost became his father-in-law.

"I'm so sorry...who told me to only know you?" Dio smiled bitterly, and then went to the aristocratic area to find this old acquaintance.

The leader of the Knights, he was implicated by Dio last time. Positions were reduced to ordinary knights. He was not killed, so the queen had some trust in him.

Dio came to the leader's mansion. He found that the garden in front of the mansion was withered a lot, and there were only a few carriages parked outside the mansion.

While Dior was observing the mansion, an elegant young woman opened the door of the mansion.

Dio sighed slightly in his heart. This young woman is the person he had a blind date with before, the daughter of the group leader. But looking at the other party's dress now, the other party should be married.

The young woman spotted Dio, and a trace of vigilance flashed in her eyes. "Who are you?"

"I'm Di... haha, forget it. I'm the Cuckoo Knight, and I want to meet your father." Dio didn't want to use his name to irritate the other person.

"Cuckoo Knight?" A trace of disgust flashed in the young woman's eyes. Because the Cuckoo Knight has the same name as Dio, who caused his father's downfall.

Moreover, the young woman discovered that the hair color of this cuckoo knight was exactly the same as that of Dior. This made her even more angry.

boom! ! !

The young woman closed the door hard, and a few pieces of peeling wood paint fell to the ground.

"Well...it really was a bad start." Dio smiled bitterly.

Just when Dio turned around and was about to leave.

There was a clatter of horse hooves.

Several noble young masters stopped at the door of the house with smiles.

Dio looked at these people curiously.

But these noble young masters didn't even look at him. They dismounted one after another and began to knock hard on the door.

"Hi! Little widow~ Do we want to go on an outing?"

Then, all kinds of dirty words came from them. Jean Dior frowned after hearing this.

Dio walked up and asked curiously: "Do you have any grudge against her?"

Several noble young masters glanced at Dio, and when they realized that he was very impressive, they did not speak rudely.

"Oh, this woman accepted a lot of gifts from us at first. But in the end, instead of getting any benefit, we got a lot of trouble."

"Yes! And her father is even more outrageous. I just recently learned from my parents that her father often accepts money but does nothing."

"He collected a large amount of money from my parents, saying that it would be a fair competition for his daughter. But in fact, he had already appointed the son-in-law to that guy named Dio."

"If the Dior incident hadn't come to light and brought him down, we would all have been fooled."

Dio bared his teeth upon hearing this.

"By the way, why do you call him little widow?" Dio was curious about this.

"Her stupid father finally sold his precious daughter to a businessman. But the businessman fled to the orcs when the ancestral spirits invaded." The noble young masters showed contempt.

"That hateful old guy! Even if he sells his daughter to any of us, it would be better than selling it to that businessman!" They were a little aggrieved and felt that they had been insulted.

The goddess he worked so hard to pursue was sold to a lowly businessman in the blink of an eye. This taunting effect is really overused. This makes these young masters unable to hold their heads high in the aristocratic circle.

When Dio heard this, he probably knew why these young masters were so angry.

"Um... may I ask, where is his father?" Dio asked.

The young masters narrowed their eyes when they heard this.

"What are you doing with him?"

"I want to duel with him. Forgot to introduce, I am the Cuckoo Knight." Dio smiled slightly.

"What! You are the famous Cuckoo Knight!" The eyes of the young masters radiated hot light.

Although the older generation of nobles disliked the Cuckoo Knight, young nobles like this admired the Cuckoo Knight very much.

If it were not for the restraint of their elders, they would have gone to worship the legendary Cuckoo Knight.

"Oh! God! You are my big brother! Can you teach me how to win a lady's favor? I am willing to pay the tuition!"

"Ah! Can you teach me how to ride? I always feel that the horse under my crotch has its own ideas! I am also willing to pay the tuition!"

"And I!"

"..."

Seeing these young people similar to himself calling him big brother, Dio felt a little funny.
