They don't want me to work harder

Richard quickly invited people to sit down and talk in detail while enjoying the food and wine.

It turns out that this little prince Ram is quite similar to Richard in some aspects.

His homeland, the Saiga Kingdom, was also riddled with holes by the imperial forces represented by standard fruits, and the country was almost destroyed.

Therefore, he has made the ambition to save the motherland since he was a child. For this reason, he chose to study abroad in Fandan to improve his skills.

However, due to his limited talent, he only reached the high bronze level. Not to mention the influence and connections he cultivated, just like the innocent P Club players - you can't say that he doesn't have any, but there really aren't many.

To be honest, this is the level of a normal little prince.

Therefore, after Ram returned to China after the semester, although he was slightly disappointed, he had no other emotions.

Until he heard about Richard's deeds...

"I summoned a giant dragon for the first time with the Bronze rank, defeated the eldest daughter of the Dulles family in a duel with David and Goliath, fought side by side with the Sword of the Empire to kill the cult monster in Nyon City, and then resurrected in a much-anticipated show. Won the championship in the festival competition..."

At that moment, Ram spoke and held Richard's hand tremblingly.

Ah this...

Have I done so much?

Richard blinked, feeling that there seemed to be a hint of jealousy in the eyes of Prince Consort Jocelyn when she looked at him.

Your Highness Ram, please stop!

You are not an older sister, please don’t do this!

"...By the way, I also heard that you once publicly proposed to the Sword of the Empire. Although you were rejected, you resisted the opponent's three swords and became the only man whose pants were still wet after expressing love?"

fake!

Even in the simulation, it was Luvia who proposed to me!

And she's not so irritable that she'll kill someone if she confesses her love?I can't accept her serious three swords at all...

After a few questions, Richard didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had to make great efforts to explain.

But putting aside the slight embarrassment, Richard confirmed that His Highness Ram was a friend worth keeping.

If we don’t win over such people who share the same anti-imperialist ambition and princely status, who else is worth winning over?

It was already very late today, and everyone in the main banquet hall had dispersed. Richard decided to give himself a holiday tomorrow and invited Ram to visit the port area and beach of Connaught.

The latter readily agreed.

The next morning, Richard took Katyusha, put the crown prince, his wife, and Ryan into the carriage and drove to the coast of Connaught.

Although Connacht is small, there are still places worth visiting.

For example, the port area is beautifully built, and then there is the beach on the south coast. The sand is white and fine, and the nearby reefs are also magnificent in shape, showing the wonders of nature.

In order to avoid being surrounded by people to watch, Richard stopped the carriage in advance, dressed up a little, and then led the trio of Saiga Kingdom on foot.

"What you can see in the palace is only a very small part of the country. If you want to truly understand a country, even a small country like Connaught with only 50 people, you must go to the market to see it in person."

On the way, Richard enthusiastically acted as a tour guide: "Look, there are a row of snack shops over there. The food is not exquisite, but the sailors in the port rely on it to fill their stomachs..."

"Yeah, yeah, both!"

Ram did not live up to Richard's expectations and did not show the common arrogance of nobles. Instead, he listened carefully.

He even took out a small notebook...

He even wrote down every word of Richard's words intact with punctuation marks...

Ah no, there is no need to be so careful!

You are a bit extreme!

Richard held his forehead again, had to slow down his speech, and led a few people to move forward.

Halfway through, they smelled an unusually alluring sweet fragrance.

"Everyone, do you want to try my exclusive baked apples with honey sauce?"

At the corner, a long-haired beauty with a hot figure and cool clothes suddenly came out pushing a small dining cart. After seeing Richard and his party, she covered her mouth in pretended surprise and asked softly:

"Excuse me, are you, your Highness Targaryen?"

The crown prince couple and Ryan both looked over in surprise:

Who is this?Actually saw through your disguise?

And Richard was even more confused.

He actually recognized who the woman was...

Veronica!

I just changed my hair color, put on colored contact lenses, and it was all done at a glance.

But the question is, why are you here in Connaught City?

You feel that my operation to eliminate pirates this time has not been fully successful. Do you want to surrender?

Facing the questioning look from her partner, Veronica smiled slightly.

"Ah, I'm sorry to bother you all. My name is Vicky. I am a traveling merchant. I encountered pirates when I went out to sell goods last time. Fortunately, His Highness saved me and I was able to come back alive... I didn't expect that I would meet you again so soon. Here~"

Chapter 1: You’re going to cause trouble as soon as you simulate it, right?

Okay, you came prepared!

Hearing that Veronica had made up a fake name and identity, Richard naturally walked down the slope, nodded repeatedly, and used his eyes to signal Katyusha behind him not to expose her.

Veronica added: "Because my family is in the spice business, I am very confident in my sense of smell. Although Your Highness has changed your appearance, the scent of the perfume you use is very unique and I can recognize it as soon as I smell it~ "

The crown prince couple and Ryan suddenly realized that this was the case.

They smiled and said hello quickly.

"Say..."

At this time, Veronica showed a little bit of embarrassment: "Your Highness, you and your friends came out in disguise to carry out some secret mission? Ah, then I didn't spoil your business..."

"No no……"

Richard took over the conversation: "I just want to take... take my Goethe classmates out to see the sights of Connaught..."

He did not immediately introduce the identity of the crown prince and his wife, but first quietly cast a voice transmission spell and asked Veronica:

What on earth do you want to do here?

Veronica quickly answered: Joseph brought the remnants of the Evil Wind Pirates ashore, most likely to the territory of Connaught.

hiss……

Did they abandon that super powerful pirate ship and go ashore?What are you doing, experiencing life as a landlubber?

When Richard was confused, Veronica continued:

So I also sneaked into Connaught, wanting to cooperate with you and investigate them, but...even if this didn't happen, couldn't they simply want to come and see their dear partners?

The partner himself said it was not good.

Richard's mouth twitched slightly: You can easily expose our relationship like this.

Veronica kept laughing in the voice transmission, obviously...

This woman couldn't care less.

That's all, vampires can do whatever they like.

on the surface.

The eldest vampire girl clapped her hands in a very girlish manner and said with a sweet smile: "Since you want to visit the sights of Connaught, do you want me to be your tour guide?"

"I know this land very well!"

Richard blinked: Are you sure?Don't screw it up!

Veronica replied via voicemail: Believe me, I investigated Connaught very carefully. After all, I had thought about ransacking this place...

Richard:?

Veronica: Don’t worry about it, it all happened many years ago~

Richard: So how old are you vampire?

Veronica: The girl’s age is a secret~ Anyway, she is no more than 17 years old~

17 years and a thousand months, right?I know.

Seeing that Richard had no objection, the crown prince and his wife naturally agreed, so the sightseeing team expanded to six people.

Veronica's actual results have proven that she does have an amazing knowledge of Connaught's ports.

They were all food stalls, and she could pick out the one with the best food and cleanest quality. They were all selling handicrafts, and she could pick out the one with the most affordable prices and the best quality.

When everyone left the port and wanted to go see the beach, she took everyone to walk for several hours. After passing through a small forest to the south, they arrived at a small beach among the mountains.

It is only 30 meters long and wide, with damp and steep cliffs on both sides. The water in the front is full of rocks. People can't get down, and big ships can't get close, so no one will bother them at all.

Even Richard didn't know this place.

But it is undeniable that the quality of the sand here is very good.

Moreover, deep in the cliff behind, there was some kind of beautiful sound mixed in with the rushing water flowing through the underground cave.

Veronica's nose moved slightly and she explained directly: "There is a mermaid inside."

"what?"

"It should be a hidden place for them to rest or trade human goods. Anyway, there are always seven or eight of them gathering inside, and they will sing from time to time."

Richard's mind recalled the knowledge of merfolk.

An intelligent creature with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish, it has a relatively low-level civilization and believes in the sea god. Compared to the sea monsters and fishmen, it is more friendly to humans. It occasionally uses transformation magic to grow legs to sneak into human cities. It is said that its singing voice is The power to soothe the souls of the dead.

However, although they do not reject humans, they do not like their identity to be discovered by humans, so they are very hidden when they come and go, and are rarely seen by ordinary people.

So Veronica said again: "Everyone can just listen to the songs outside. If we go into the cave to look for them, they will run away."

The trio from the Saiga Kingdom happily agreed, sitting quietly on the beach, listening to the chorus of waves and mermaids with their ears, breathing in the smell of the sea in the breeze with their noses, and finally closing their eyes, admiring the slow halo of the sun through their eyelids. Slowly falling into the horizon...
