After a long walk around the city, Aarons and Keliya finally started to return to the Wushen Mansion in the north of the city.
Because Keliya was by his side, Aarons did not encounter any more attacks from the enemy. Although that did make him a little scared, he also knew that the enemies of the Marquis's family would not even let him, a waste, go.
——This is actually a key piece of information. Aarons will definitely prepare precautions after returning, so the enemy may also reveal flaws.
"When do you plan to go back, sir?"
"Go back... The imperial capital is not very safe now, I should go back tonight or tomorrow morning."
In order to prevent the night from being too long, Aarons decided to leave the imperial capital as soon as possible. With Karin and Xia Ye's protection, at least he would no longer have to be afraid of assassins of that level.
"Is that so? Then we can only meet again in the Marquis' territory."
...Are you really going to go?
Aarons couldn't guess what Keliya was thinking at all - just like he couldn't see the face hidden under the veil.
"The border is not as prosperous as the imperial capital. Miss Keliya may not be used to it."
"If I want to visit, I will definitely let you know in advance."
... No, it feels like the other party didn't listen to what I said.
This is the first time that Aarons has met such a woman who makes him feel at a loss. She seems to be completely unconcerned about the troubles he mentioned before, as if those things are just problems that can be easily solved.
However, considering that Keliya did solve the assassin who wanted to assassinate her just now... the survival competition of the nobles in the imperial capital may be more intense than he thought.
"It's almost time... Miss Keliya, do you have any plans for the afternoon?"
"Although I really want to have dinner with you, I do have an important thing to do later."
"Then I will treat you to dinner next time."
Because Keliya still had some private matters to deal with, the two parted at the door of the mansion.
From beginning to end, Aarons did not figure out why this black-clad daughter took the initiative to get in touch with him. But he was about to leave the imperial capital, and the possibility of the two meeting again was not very high.
Perhaps this was the so-called once in a lifetime encounter... Although it was a bit regrettable, Aarons still had business to attend to.
"Master, you came back a little late. His Excellency the God of War suddenly left for something not long ago."
After a person walked into the mansion, Xia Ye, who had been waiting in the yard for a long time, immediately came to greet him. At this time, Karin was sparring with young warriors in the martial arts field - if the scene of her constantly swinging people away could be called sparring.
"It's not that I want to delay time, but because I was almost killed."
"What... Please stand still."
Xia Ye did not choose to listen to Aarons' own explanation, but walked up and grabbed Aarons' head with his fingers.
After a trance of past life flashed before his eyes, Aarons realized that Xia Ye had directly absorbed his memories during this period.
"Hey, next time you do this, can you tell me in advance!"
"Because it concerns your life safety, I have the right to obtain intelligence in the most efficient way... How dare they act in the imperial capital? Are the enemies of the Marquis so unscrupulous?"
"Anyone who dares to do this...I'm afraid he must be at least a grand duke."
——There are three grand dukes and three princes in the empire, which is something that the unlucky young master also knows. However, there is no definite conclusion yet on which prince will become the eighth emperor.
Although the eldest prince is the first heir as the eldest son, the second prince's talent and popularity are not far behind. However, the second prince once publicly expressed his support for the eldest prince to inherit the throne, which also made the competition between the two sides hidden under the table.
The third prince is only sixteen years old this year, and he is completely incomparable with his two brothers who are already over thirty years old. Therefore, the aristocratic circle generally only discusses who is more capable of inheriting the throne between the eldest prince and the second prince, and will not include the third prince in it.
"Do you mean that a certain Grand Duke or Prince is trying to assassinate you?"
"I don't know. It could be that they are just jealous of my father or my brother. Anyway, since you have read my memories, you should hurry up and prepare to leave the imperial capital."
"Is that Miss Keliya an old acquaintance of yours?"
Xia Ye completely absorbed Aarons' memories, and of course saw how he escaped... But Aarons didn't know how to answer this question.
"You should have seen it all... Many of the memories of the young master himself are very vague, so I don't know if that lady is someone he knew before."
Perhaps it was because the unlucky young master's soul disappeared withAfter losing a lot of memories, Aarons couldn't actually recall much of the past. Even if Xia Ye could use his special ability to unravel his memories, he couldn't see any useful information.
"Then let's temporarily treat her as someone related to His Excellency the God of War. Although we should investigate her identity a little, your current situation is quite dangerous, and we can't stay here for long."
After his idea was confirmed by Xia Ye, Aarons immediately called back Karin, who was still sparring with others. After informing them of the current situation, the three of them immediately left the mansion and returned to the hotel where they were staying to prepare for the return journey.
Of course, Aarons also left a short letter specifically for Lingqing God of War and Keliya, explaining the reason for leaving and expressing his gratitude.
As for what people who see the letter will think, that's not his business.
...
Imperial City, Reception Hall.
Because he received an urgent call from the emperor, Lingqing God of War immediately rushed to the imperial city. As a warrior who protects the country, he not only has a special passage to enter and exit the imperial city, but also has higher authority than the princes.
However, this time, he knew that he would be summoned by the emperor.
"Lingqing Martial God, when did you come? I just received a call from a spy saying that the boy was almost assassinated in the city."
"Just arrived not long ago. What happened to the boy?"
When the warrior with the strange Lingqing crystal on his body saw the emperor in the side hall, who looked nearly sixty years old but was actually several decades younger than himself, he just nodded without any extra movements.
——For him who had sent away three emperors, this emperor of the empire was actually just a junior.
"That kid is fine. But I asked the spy to investigate and found that the killer was hired by Count Como, who had been at odds with Marquis Moti before."
"Want to take revenge on the Marquis' family? But the Marquis' family is basically dead now, why would he send someone to take revenge on a child who poses no threat?"
"The clue ends here, but I think Count Como was probably just instigated by someone."
The real enemy of the Marquis Moti family is definitely not this kind of small character - although a count should never be called a small character.
"I don't want to get involved in the affairs of the nobles. I just want to know whether the plan I mentioned before is feasible?"
"I think it is feasible. Although that kid doesn't know any fighting spirit or magic, he is good enough to dig out the spy who is secretly communicating with Cardia. And the other reason why I agree with this plan - you are of course also very clear."
"Then I will sit here and wait for a good show this time... In addition, you can also let other idle guys go there to try it out, maybe you can find a few buried talents."
Although no one knew what they were talking about at this time, a stirring sense of uneasiness began to gradually spread throughout the empire.
