The noble lords stood there, watching the dark green flames and thick fog that seemed to be able to light up half the sky gradually dissipate.

The skeleton horses marched along with the dark green will-o'-the-wisp fire, leaving footprints of burning fire wherever they passed.

Although the horses' steps were chaotic, the strange thing was that the sound of horses' hooves did not sound, as if a team of ghosts passed over the earth.

The two carriages burning with will-o'-the-wisp fire that the Grand Duke and his entourage rode in also quietly disappeared into the thick fog.

August also stood there, staring at the ashes of the green sparks floating in the air, with a smile on his face.

Looking at the departing convoy, he asked the nobles around him:

"What do you think of Princess Aurelian?"

A noble beside him answered respectfully:

"Your Majesty, although Princess Aurelian is young, she is calm and unhurried in front of so many of us."

"I can only say that the etiquette of the empire is indeed good enough."

A noble nodded and took over the conversation.

"The most important thing is the other party's identity. She could have been less polite."

If the other party was just an ordinary princess, it would be fine.

However, her identity is the princess of the Carencia Empire...

The emperor of the empire is recognized as a warrior standing at the top of the world.

Even though the kingdom has developed warriors for so many years, no one has ever been able to approach the level of Aubrey.

Not to mention surpassing him.

What level is Aubrey? What level are they?

Not to mention that Aurelian is the granddaughter of Grand Duke Barro.

What level is Grand Duke Barro, and what level are they?

What, not heavy enough?

Add Victor, is it heavy enough?

With the highest background of two countries, and even the support of the Mage Council.

Aurelian can walk sideways in any country.

But she still holds the attitude of bringing diplomacy to the empire, and treats people in a friendly and kind manner.

Even when facing the lords of their kingdoms, she is still very polite.

While it is precious, it is very easy for them to have a strong liking for her.

August nodded and asked Laurian on the side:

"Count Laurian, it was you who greeted the princess yesterday. What do you think of her?"

Laurien pondered for a moment and answered:

"Princess Aurelion is very good. I think she should be a kind person."

When it comes to Aurelion comforting the maid, a trace of admiration flashed in his eyes.

It is really a rare thing for a princess to comfort a maid.

That's why he believes Aurelion will definitely help him ask for that thing.

August seemed very satisfied to hear everyone's praise for the princess.

"I see."

"It seems that this princess not only has an amazing background and enough talent."

"Her character is also very good."

At this time, he looked at Hilda on the side again, raised his eyebrows, and was a little serious.

"Hilda, today, you performed a little poorly."

"How can we let the guests go to fight?"

Hilda also knew that she had made a mistake, lowered her head, and was extremely ashamed.

"Sorry, Your Majesty, I can't help it."

She closed her eyes, and her heart was twisted into a hemp rope.

"I know, because you will definitely say so."

"At least let me know that this princess is not just a vase."

August smiled and patted Hilda's shoulder, and then continued casually:

"Perhaps, this princess has not yet had a spouse?"

The ghost caravan had disappeared at the end of the road, and the breeze was blowing.

His words began to echo melodiously over the entire earth with the wind.

All the noble lords nodded, looking thoughtful.

Only Hilda lowered her head, saying nothing, with a gloomy expression.

The bright moon cast a silvery light on the earth.

The green ghost fire intertwined with the moonlight, dotted with strange stars swimming under the night sky.

In the air, the ghost fire burned fiercely, accompanied by thick smoke, and the undead horses wrapped in flames moved rapidly, shuttling through the deep forest.

These horses surrounded a team of carriages that were also lit by the ghost fire and rushed in the designated direction.

Strangely, although the horses' hooves and wheels moved, no sound was made.

The only sound was the distant bells in the night sky, which seemed to warn passers-by of the approach of ghosts.

Where the caravan passed, the ground left traces that gradually dissipated.

Soon, the caravan drove out of the dense forest, and in front of it was a magnificent city.

The flags here have green logos, and at the top of the flags, there seems to be a burning fire similar to the horse.The will-o'-the-wisp fire that resembles a car.

The symbol on the flag is the family emblem of the Barlow family.

The city is huge, like a silent night city, surrounded by a dark green atmosphere, and occasionally dark shadows appear in the windows.

The entire castle looks quiet and mysterious under the moonlight, especially the will-o'-the-wisp fire around the tower, which makes it even more weird.

With a faint green light, the huge city gate slowly opened.

Under the cover of thick fog, the convoy drove in quickly, as if entering a dark tunnel.

The dark green firelight is extremely bright in the darkness. Although it is a bit weird, it brings a ray of light to the darkness.

At this time, Barlow said:

"We are here."

As his words fell, the whole city seemed to be injected with life, awakening the vitality deep in the earth.

The dark green flames emerged from the ground and surrounded the territory.

The originally dim street lights were lit one by one, as if huge waves were sweeping over the earth.

At the end of the street lamp is a huge castle tower, and the flames expand again at the top of each tower, like clusters of fire swaying a huge body.

The knights drove their horses out of the tunnel, and they looked up, attracted by the grand flame.

The flame seemed to have life, twisting its body towards the crowd and bowing slightly.

The knights pulled the reins and slowly stopped the horses, while the carriage continued to move deeper into the city.

On the way, there were tall and ancient buildings on both sides, and ghost lights flowed in them.

But in such a huge city, there was no passerby.

The knights followed closely behind, and they looked at this desolate city and felt a sense of loneliness and emptiness.

Until the convoy drove into a wide manor.

The mansion was extremely wide, and behind the iron gate burning with green fireflies was a road that led in all directions.

The manor was like a maze, with gardens everywhere.

There was only one wide road in the entire courtyard that could allow the carriage to pass through.

This grand mansion is like a small castle, and its surrounding walls are entangled with ghost flames, like the outer coat of a psychedelic castle.

Clusters of ghost fires are burning on the top of the towering tower, blooming with dark green flowers.

When everyone arrived at the courtyard, the skeleton horses bowed down respectfully.

The knights and the demi-humans all turned over and dismounted.

The dark green flames burning on their bodies also dissipated the moment their feet touched the ground.

The twelve foreign ministers stood on the courtyard road with solemn expressions, staring at the ghost flames with fear, feeling uneasy.

After all, this is the first time they have dealt with the Grand Duke of the Kingdom of Kant.

I don’t know how weird the Grand Duke’s temper is.

But can anyone who can live in such a weird environment have a good temper?

The foreign ministers glanced at the surrounding flower beds.

Despite the bleak environment, these flowers are still graceful and colorful.

A group of people walked into the mansion, but no servant came to greet them.

The cold wind brought a gloomy chill, and the courtyard was extremely empty, as if it was lonely.

Could it be that this Grand Duke lived here alone?

At this time, Grand Duke Barro also got off the carriage, and Aurelian followed Victor's steps and got off the carriage.

The next second, Grand Duke Barro knocked the ground with his cane.

With a "dong" sound, the green smoke around suddenly dissipated.

The undead carriage and the horses turned into white bone powder and gradually dissipated in the air.

Everyone present stared at the surrounding environment in a daze.

When the green smoke completely dissipated, the night sky became extremely clear.

The bright moon was even more dazzling, and countless stars were like white pearls inlaid on the black sky, shedding a peaceful glow.

The lights in the mansion were reflected from the windows, and warm glow flowed out.

The green will-o'-the-wisp gradually returned to normal, and the road was clear and bright.

Suddenly, Aurelian stood there in a daze, looking straight ahead.

Countless servants stood in front of them, lined up on both sides, and bowed to everyone.

"Finally, I'm home."

Grand Duke Barro said lightly, then looked down at Aurelian.

From her face, I saw a look of surprise.

"This is... too amazing."

This was the first time she had experienced such a scene in her life, as if she was suddenly connected from one corner of the world to another corner.

So, Grand Duke Barro turned his head again.

"The place we just passed through is the residence of the dead, so our carriage can shuttle freely there.

"This is also the fastest way to get back here besides teleportation magic."

"But when they come to the realm of the living, they should take the initiative to leave."

Grand Duke Barro was referring to the horses and horses that disappeared quietly.Car,

After the green fog disappeared, it meant that everyone returned to the realm of the living.

They will naturally disappear.

"The dead should not set foot on the territory of the living, and similarly, the living should not disturb the peace of the dead."

Hearing this, Aurelion was a little dazed.

She thought of her mother.

She heard that her mother, who died of dystocia, was buried here.

Aurelion came to the kingdom, to her ancestral home that she had never set foot on.

A large part of the reason was to visit her mother whom she had never seen.

So, Aurelion asked:

"Grandpa, my mother... where is she buried?"

"I hope to go and see her."

Grand Duke Barro listened to Aurelion's words and did not look back.

Only a calm voice slowly sounded:

"You will see her."

"But not now."
