Otome's Law of Ascension

Chapter 54

Licia pursed her lips and put her index finger in front of her face, signaling him not to make any noise.

The little boy's chest rose and fell. "You lied to me!"

The carriage was heading all the way to Sufaluo, and the little boy kept turning his body backwards, keeping looking in the direction of Seina City.

The defenders at the city gate knew Lycia.

"It's Miss Licia! Hurry up and inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" One of them also participated in the search and rescue.

The little boy's body finally turned around, and he looked at Licia with a very frightened look. "His Royal Highness!?"

Then he suddenly jumped out of the carriage and ran in the direction of Seine City.

'Could it really be an illegitimate child? ' Lycia caught him hastily.

But I couldn't stop a child from screaming. "Let go of me, I don't want to be killed again!"

Licia hurriedly covered his mouth, and then felt that she was trying to cover up, so she squatted down and held her shoulders firmly. "Whoever wants to kill you, if you want to kill you, I won't save you just now."

"You saved me just because you didn't know that I was the emperor's illegitimate child!" The little boy's face was flushed, and he clenched his fists.

"What illegitimate child?" Licia's face darkened. "You told me that the church is looking for evidence to prove a person's identity, so it is to prove the identity of your illegitimate child?"

Although the little boy has a deep scheming heart, he is not deeply involved in the world.He opened his mouth slightly, wanting to shake his head, but didn't dare to shake his head.

"So you mean, the church is secretly looking for an illegitimate child? You? Looking for you? Why? Could it be that they want to kill His Highness the Crown Prince? Let you, a hairy boy, succeed you? Ridiculous! His Majesty the Emperor is in good health now, and so is His Highness the Crown Prince!" Licia followed his words and said that since he wanted to expose the matter, the church must be the passive one.

Even if the illegitimate child should not be killed secretly, he is definitely not the legal heir.

Not to mention the fact that both the emperor and the crown prince are still alive, secretly considering finding an illegitimate child.

The little boy was so frightened that he lost the ability to act stupid, and stood there blankly.

"No matter what his identity is, take him with you first, and talk about it after seeing His Royal Highness." Licia stretched her body and handed the boy to the defenders. "Let's go, you should be able to meet them along this road."

When passing the coachman, Licia put three gold coins in his hand as promised.

Licia's frank attitude made the defenders start to doubt what the boy and the church did.

"Take him in the carriage, don't let the church say that we have mistreated the baby they are looking for." Licia sneered, the defender's favorability for her was generally higher than 40.00%, and she turned on a bay red horse. horse.

Sure enough, as soon as they reached the central street, they saw Dimitri and his party who also came out on horseback.

"It's great that you're fine." Viscount Fudomi said sincerely.

Although Dimitri had an awkward expression, he was obviously grateful.

Licia can see from his slow rise and finally reaching 60.00% favorability.

"Your Highness, the heptapod took me to find some treasures." Licia showed everyone the transformed silver ring of thorns in her hand. She thought that it was so big and bright that others could see it anyway.

But as for the book, she still plans to take it home and study it slowly by herself.

"This, this is very good." Dimitri said with a straight face.

"By the way, I rescued a child on the road. He claimed to be His Majesty's illegitimate son, and said that the church was looking for him." Licia pretended that Dimitri didn't know anything about it. "Your Highness, have you ever had a half-brother?"

Dimitri knew that Licia must not be able to hide it, so he would say this publicly, so he answered immediately after being surprised. "Really? The people from the church just left for Senna. They said they had something important to go back, so they went to find him? Then they might take him back to ask the emperor."

After a while, Dimitri added two more sentences. "However, in recent years, some people have always said that they are His Majesty's children living abroad, and we can't send every one of them to him. Let someone check whether his has the power of heraldry first."

Because of his words, the little boy who was trembling in the car suddenly stuck his head out of the window and shouted hoarsely. "I have heraldic power, I have! I don't want to check with you alone!"

The defenders who were sitting in the carriage with him as if they were watching the excitement finally got impatient and pulled him back. "Listen to His Royal Highness's arrangement."

"Licia, your clothes are still wet, go back to the city lord's mansion to rest first." Dimitri didn't intend to do things according to the little boy's wishes.

"What do you think of nobles, or do you think that people from the church make you believe that everyone can't believe it? Is the church instigating you?" Licia mentioned the church again. "Let's go, Your Highness. Although I'm not cold, I guess he was a little scared after saving the child from the beast." She didn't care to remind the boy again that she saved him.

Lizia and Dimitri's horse walked in front side by side, and Lizia already had three cloaks on her shoulders.

"You can take someone to look for it, is the Duke of Troy good at divination of the dead?"

Lycia told Dimitri what she had seen and reminded him to investigate before the church.

"No need, many things can be found out from this little boy." Dimitri pulled the rein, trying to keep the horse's walking speed as consistent as Licia's.

Troy had already entered the carriage and sat in front of the little boy, showing a smirk.

"You don't need to kill him now, and you don't need to worry about the consequences if people find out about it." Dimitri said confidently.

Licia nodded.

She hesitated for a moment, then went on to make her point. "However, he does not look like His Majesty at all, and the power of heraldry does not prove that he is the illegitimate son of His Majesty the Emperor. Too many nobles have messed up their private lives."

Dimitri was thinking. "If his mother is not a person with the power of the coat of arms, then he will not be the coat of arms of the dragon, because only nobles who are favored by the goddess can give birth to children who inherit the coat of arms of the dragon for the royal family."

"So, you and I can't have a child with the Emblem of the Dragon?" Licia was just thinking and teasing that she didn't come from the power of the Sun Goddess, but she didn't expect that what she said seemed to be completely ambiguous.

No one heard the conversation, even though those around them deliberately left behind them.

Licia was still feeling awkward.

"Of course." Dimitri answered after a moment. "So, if you want to marry me, we can only adopt a child with the dragon's coat of arms from a branch of the royal family as the heir."

Lycia rubbed the rein repeatedly with her thumbs, as if trying to crush it. "So if it turns out later that his crest is not the crest of the dragon, then he is definitely not the person the church is looking for."

Dimitri nodded. "Although I think it is very likely that he is lying, I plan to help him."
