Chapter 415 She looks so pretty when she smiles
A package sent from the north was delivered directly to the king after many twists and turns.
Looking at the big words "King's Signature" on the envelope, the king opened it speechlessly. Then he found that Li had sent a lot of northern specialties.
The old king picked up a bottle of fine sour fruit wine, put his nose to the cork and took a deep sniff.
"This brat, he still remembers me~"
The saint who was treating the king nearby couldn't help but tremble when she saw that the sender of the letter was Vizor Li.
The king noticed the saint's little action, and seeing that she did not understand his behavior, he did not explain much.
After taking out the sundries, the king found two letters in the package, one of which was given to Lei and the other was addressed to Edward.
The old king held the letter above his head, trying to check the words inside through the light. When he found that he could not see it, the king put his hand down helplessly.
The saint who was watching from the side thought that the king would find another way to deal with the matter.
The undead wizard in the north had correspondence with important figures in the royal capital. This was problematic no matter how you looked at it.
If the Saint sat on the throne of the king, she would definitely investigate these two people, as they were secretly colluding with foreign enemies...
The saint put herself in the king's shoes, but saw that the old king was rude and opened both letters directly.
The saint was stunned watching on the side. The king just opened someone else's letter. Wouldn't this be a problem?
"What's the problem? If the boy writes to me, I will definitely read it if it's accurate."
The old king was right. Both letters began with this sentence.
"Lao Deng! Although the fruit wine is delicious, please don't drink too much~"
The old king laughed angrily and almost tore the letter to pieces.
Fortunately, he resisted the urge to take action, as the two letters had to be passed on to others after all.
"Lady Saint, please help notify Lei and Edward."
The saint's head was full of question marks, and she couldn't understand what these people were thinking.
Although they were all enemies, he felt happy from the bottom of his heart after seeing the letter. The saint had never seen the king treat others in this way.
After the saint left, the old king read the two letters as quickly as possible.
The letter to Lei mainly described the affairs of Baron Fox and asked Lei to investigate the internal affairs of the secret order.
There is nothing much to say about this matter. The situation described by Li should be true. The old king will personally urge Lei to do this!
As for the letters to Edward...
"The Knights' Promise?"
Lee only wrote a few words to Edward to fulfill the previous agreement, which left the old king completely confused.
Edward and Lee did have a good personal relationship, but when it came to the Knights Templar, Edward would never act rashly.
The old king was lost in thought, so distracted that he did not notice that the saint had returned.
The saint's gaze fell on the letter in the king's hand. Could it be that Edward, this upright paladin, was also connected with the forces of darkness?
The saint's pupils trembled, and her worldview collapsed!
"Your Excellency the Pope, are you looking for us?"
Lei and Edward, who were still not used to being addressed as the Pope, appeared side by side at the door of the room.
Lei was very confused as to why the old king summoned him, while Edward tried to reduce his presence as much as possible so as not to let others focus on himself.
"Lei, you came at the right time. There was an unexpected situation in the North."
Lei thought that the situation in the North had changed, and quickly took the paper from the king.
“…Someone is using the identity of the Secret Society to sell potions? This is impossible! The Secret Society’s members in the North are all recorded. They are all selected noble magicians. Logically, they should not do such a thing.”
If they were really executors sent to the North to start side businesses in private, Lei would definitely make them understand the consequences of bringing discredit to the Secret Society!
However, Lei is more inclined to another speculation.
"Someone must be impersonating the Secret Society's identity. I can only remind Li to be careful and guard against it."
Things on Lei's side were easy to arrange. After the old king gave a few instructions, he turned his attention to Edward.
Edward was seriously injured in the fight with the devil, with severe burns all over his body and missing an arm.
After careful treatment in the temple, a small section of Edward's missing arm has grown back, but it will take a long time for him to fully recover.
What concerned the old king was that Edward was wearing the same mask as the Secret Order and standing quietly in the corner without saying a word.
Is it because it is not cured?
It shouldn't be difficult to use healing magic to restore burned skin, so why did Edward still wear a mask...
"Captain Edward, it is very disrespectful to wear a mask in front of this Pope! I now order you to take off that damn mask!"
The old king used his status as Pope to put pressure on Edward, which made Edward tremble.
"…Your Holiness, my skin is not fit for human exposure."
"Oh~ my brave Captain Edward, your heroic figure in fighting against the devil is the most charming thing. No one here will care about your appearance. I promise that if anyone laughs at you, I will regard him as a heretic!"
The saint who was watching twitched her cheeks. To be a heretic for mocking Edward's appearance was too outrageous a punishment.
The saint began to miss the old days. Although the temple was full of bastards at that time, at least they were not like the king who did whatever he wanted.
"Alas~ I knew I couldn't avoid it."
Edward finally compromised. After all, it wasn't a big deal to always wear a mask.
As Edward placed his hand on the mask, everyone's eyes turned to him.
Sensing the serious atmosphere in the air, the saint unconsciously became nervous.
What did Edward's face look like under the mask?
"Pfft, hahaha!"
The mask fell and several voices of laughter filled the room.
Even the saint, who didn't like the cheerful atmosphere, laughed so hard that she hugged her belly.
Edward was speechless and glared at the people in the room with a fierce look.
It’s no wonder that everyone was laughing so hard; Edward’s face was just too funny.
The original Edward's face was full of the vicissitudes of battle, and there were several scars to prove his bravery.
As a result, this time, because the entire face underwent repair, Edward's entire face was beautified.
The skin on Edward's face is as white and rosy as that of a newborn baby, but this is not the point. The point is that Edward actually has a baby face!
A middle-aged uncle, with the face of a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, his cheeks puffed slightly when he was angry, so cute!
"I'm sorry Edward, you shouldn't laugh in such a serious situation, but I really can't help it!"
The old king laughed so hard that he convulsed in his chair, his ribs ached from laughing, and he finally started coughing.
The saint hurried over to check on the old king's condition, but saw that the old king restrained his smile and looked at the saint gently.
"Girl, you should smile more often. You look very pretty when you smile."
The saint's closed heart was instantly pierced by the old king's words.
