Chapter 589 Who could my parents be?

Althea was so excited.

She felt that she would always remember that tonight, with the cooperation of the priest, she successfully killed two people.

Those are two living people.

When she thought of this, Althea's hands trembled. She never imagined that one day, as a princess, she would really be able to kill someone.

After Iden left, the royal guards hurriedly gathered around the princess's tent, looking at the body on the ground in confusion and surprise.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

An officer asked in a trembling voice,
"these are…"

Althea turned around. She was worried that she could not find anyone to show off her heroic deeds.
"Assassins, what else could it be? I killed them all!"

With that said, Althea raised the crossbow in her hand.

"oh oh…"

The officer's jaw almost dropped. Then he looked at Eden next to the princess.

"Are you a night watchman? What's going on with these two assassins?"

Eden took a deep breath, and then briefly explained the process. With the cooperation of himself and Althea, the assassins not only failed to succeed, but also explained here.

After the officer heard this, he calmed down the surprise on his face and swallowed his saliva. Who could have imagined before that a princess with no strength could actually shoot two assassins.

"The general is here!"

A voice came from behind the soldiers. Immediately afterwards, the surrounding royal guards moved out of the way, and a general nearly two meters tall and wearing full armor came out. That was the emperor's Paladin—— "Broken Blade" Brett.

Brett glanced at the scene, his face was serious, and the officer just now hurried to his side and whispered what happened.

After hearing what happened, Bright looked at the princess holding the crossbow in surprise.

Noticing that look, Althea became even more proud.

"Bright, tell me, if I join the army, can I be a captain of ten?"

Althea said in a boastful tone.

Brett smiled, nodded and said:

“Perhaps Centurion is more suitable for you.

However, the next time you encounter this kind of situation, I hope His Highness will escape from the scene as soon as possible. "

At this time, Brett looked at Eden,

"Looking at your clothes, you must be a night watchman. What's your name?"

"Eden."

replied the priest.

"No last name?"

After seeing Eden nod, Brett continued:
"In the name of God, I will report your achievements to His Majesty the Emperor. I believe you will be rewarded when you return to the imperial capital."

Eden didn't care about the rewards after returning to the imperial capital. He had been sentenced to exile and it was impossible to return to the imperial capital.

"Lord Paladin, rather than being rewarded, I am more worried about whether this kind of thing will happen again."

Eden spoke slowly:

"This is not like an attack by bandits, but more like a premeditated and prepared assassination."

Brett frowned slightly and then said:
"I noticed.

We have captured a few alive and will interrogate them later. "

Eden thanked and blessed:

"May God bless you."

Bright turned to look at the others, gave a few orders in a loud voice to strengthen the guards and guard the bonfire, then turned and left. The other soldiers of the royal guard, except for the small team who stayed to guard the princess's tent, also left.

"Hey, come here."

Eden was about to leave, but Althea stopped him.

"What's wrong?" Eden asked directly after following Althea into the tent.

He didn't want to stay with this person for too long, he just wanted to go back to the Night Watch as soon as possible.

I hope Verdo is not in any danger.

Eden said in his heart.

"Priest, you should notice that one of the two assassins who came to kill me seems to be the drow that the queen mother said."

Althea lowered her voice and spoke quickly.

"So...you think it has something to do with Osenko?"

Eden followed the words.

He also thought of this.

The assassination enemy first launched an attack to create chaos in the camp, and then attempted to assassinate the princess during the chaos. Fortunately, he was present and Althea's excellent crossbow skills prevented the assassins from succeeding.

"It must be related! Apart from them, I don't know anyone who has contact with the drow."

Althea said decisively.

"But, Your Highness, don't you want to marry? You are the future queen, why?"

Eden wondered.

"If I am the future queen, won't they assassinate me?
Regarding political matters, who can tell clearly, maybe it was an assassin sent by another Osenko family? "

Althea spread her hands, then thought of something, and said fiercely:

"One thing, I have to say, don't call me future queen! I don't belong to that barbarian country, and I won't stay there until I die. Do you hear me?"

Eden didn't argue with her, he just wanted to leave as soon as possible,

"I heard it, I heard it."

He felt that Althea went too far in saying that Osenko was a barbarian country. In his impression, although it was not as wealthy as Deschanel, it was still an uncivilized place.

"Okay, I know you don't want to discuss Osenko's conspiracy with me. I see it, so just go back."

Althea waved her hand and said drivingly.

Eden walked out of the tent, sighed in relief, and slowly walked towards the night watchman's camp.

Back in the camp, Eden explained what happened tonight to Verdo in a hurry. The latter couldn't help but sigh one after another, and asked with concern whether Eden was injured. The old man's concern made the priest feel warm.

Soon after, Eden lay on the bed and closed his eyes. He did not fall asleep immediately.

The scene of blood splattering appeared in my mind, and I seemed to hear Althea's cheers again.

He couldn't forget Althea's excitement after killing someone.

Eden thought that her soul at that time should be no different from the devil with its teeth and claws.

The scene slowly dissipated. He was extremely tired tonight. His thoughts gradually subsided. His whole body began to breathe steadily and rhythmically, and his sleepiness became more and more intense.

"anyway,
My parents...who could they be? "

After Eden finished murmuring these words, he fell asleep completely.

.............................................

Early the next morning, Eden received a summons from Bright, and the knight of the monarch's guard seemed to have obtained the results of the interrogation.

Eden didn't waste any time and soon appeared in the general's tent.

"They have a camp about fifty miles to the west."

Brett explained:

"Nightwatch, I need your cooperation. Please organize a team of six as soon as possible. I will send a cavalry to go with you to conduct reconnaissance."

Assassin's camp.

Eden couldn't help but feel a little nervous, he was just a priest.
