Because of this, Ritter, who believed that only nobles dared to speak like this, obediently made way for the noble behind her, who could be determined to be a 'young lady' by her voice, with the spirit of 'it's better to avoid trouble'. When he said' please,'he bent down and made a gesture to invite her.
Unfortunately, what made Ritter want to go home immediately was that his actions made the noble lady, who had wanted to just walk over, stop in her tracks and stand in front of him, who had her head lowered and looked at the ground."It seems that you, a commoner, still have some manners. Hmm…how about this, this Highness…Young Miss happened to come out alone today, so you, a somewhat polite commoner, can bring this Young Miss around this place full of unruly people.”
After saying that, the noble lady took the lead and walked away without waiting for Ritter's reaction. However, she stopped after a few steps because she realized that Ritter did not follow her.
With a displeased expression, the noble lady strode to the front and back of Ritter, who still had his head lowered to the ground. Without waiting for Ritter to say anything, she raised her leg and kicked his calf."Commoners! Didn't you hear what I said? Or do you want to refuse to bring me around this place full of unruly people? I'm telling you, if you dare to refuse my request, I'll hang you!”
This unreasonable noble lady made Ritter, who originally wanted to reject her, feel pain in his legs and stomach. But even so, he still nodded and accepted her request. The reason was that he had confirmed one thing through this noble lady's words just now.
The noble lady was not a noble but a royal, and she was the princess and regent of the Imperium. She wanted to call herself 'Her Highness', but she changed her words in time. Therefore, she knew that there was only one person in the entire Imperium who dared to call herself' Her Highness', excluding Altoria, and that was the princess and regent of the Imperium, who was also the 'lady' in front of her.
"Hmph, at least you know what's good for you!"
The young lady who saw Ritter nod left behind this sentence and started walking again. Ritter couldn't do anything to her and wanted to stay away from her. After carefully observing the surroundings and making sure that no one was following her, he quickly walked to her side with an expression that said," Can I be more unlucky?"
"Ahem…Miss, you shouldn't have gone out alone, and you shouldn't have come here alone, because…”
Ritter, who had almost blurted out the identity of this young lady, coughed dryly and changed his words. However, before he could finish, he was interrupted by the young lady who had a faint smile on her face.
"You're quite smart, a commoner. You actually managed to guess my identity through my slip of the tongue.”
Rittery's mouth corners twitched when he heard the lady's words. He looked at her big emerald eyes, which looked 70% similar to Atoria's. She had a dazzling waist-length golden wavy hair and a pair of white boots embroidered with a lifelike golden dragon."Actually, even if you didn't make a slip of the tongue, I could still tell your identity. The reason is that your temperament and clothes don't look like…um…an ordinary lady.”
Although what Ritter said was the truth, it was not the complete truth. The reason was that Ritter knew who she was the moment he saw her appearance.
However, Rittery had been with her half-sister, Altoria, since she was a child, and he knew who she was. That was why Rittery knew who she was the moment he saw her face.
"You have good eyesight, commoner. Ah, right, in order to reward a commoner like you who guessed my identity, I'll allow you to call me little…sister…No, you haven't told me your name yet!”
Suddenly remembering that she didn't know the name of this commoner who was wearing a cloak to cover her face and eyes, the young lady decisively stopped in her tracks and stood in the middle of the road. She gave up on what she wanted to say and asked him with a somewhat unhappy expression.
Faced with such an outcome, Ritter silently said in his heart," If you don't ask, how can I tell you? I don't want to please you." After thinking for a moment, he was about to say a name that he had made up. However, just as he opened his mouth, before he could even make a sound, this lady beat him to it."Have you made up the name? There's no need to say anything else since I hate being lied to the most. I've decided to ask the soldiers to bring you to the barracks…No, my home. I'll slowly ask you for the name of this commoner who's wearing a cloak to cover his face and eyes. He's probably a wanted criminal.”
She wasn't trying to scare Ritter, but she was serious. The reason why she changed her mind and said that she wouldn't take him to the barracks and would take him to her home was because she found him interesting and wanted to slowly play a game that would make even a seasoned general tremble in fear.
"Uh…Miss, is there any room for discussion?”
When the lady spoke, Rittery saw a cold glint in her eyes. He was sure that if he was brought to her house by the soldiers, he would not end well. Therefore, after considering many things, Rittery decided to see if there was room for negotiation. If there was no room for negotiation, he would run away. After all, if he wanted to run away, no one could stop or catch him except Merlin and Atolia.
When she saw Ritter raise his left foot horizontally, she knew that he was going to run away. Before she could answer him, she raised her slender hand and grabbed his cloak with a fake smile. She said in a delicate tone that made Ritter's heart itch,"Do you want to run? Fine, go ahead and run. But if you run now, you'll bleed to death in less than three days.”
After saying that, the young lady released Ritter's cloak and did the same thing to him, which was to invite him in.
Ritey frowned and stared at the lady with a strange smile on her face for a while. Just as he was about to say that he was not scared, he smelled a sweet fragrance. Instinctively, he felt that there was something wrong with this smell. He immediately closed his eyes and took off the cloak that the lady had touched before."You…Hu…You win, miss. Furthermore, Iroya wants to know your name from the bottom of his heart.”
If it was not for the fact that he did not want to be chased around the city by a group of soldiers or be betrayed by them, he would definitely scold this young lady first, then run home at full speed to tell Merlin what had happened to him so that he could help him solve it.
"Hehe…Why didn't you do this earlier? Why…Wait, why did you close your eyes? I'm very ugly... No! Riteloya, Riteloya, you're... Wuwu!”
The young lady who had discovered the reason for his closing of his eyes through Ritter's name was attacked by Ritter before she could say it. At the same time, she was dragged into a small alley with shocking speed.
After entering the small alley, Ritter did not immediately put down his hand that was covering the lady's pink lips. Instead, after making sure that there was no one in the alley and no one chasing after him, he put down his hand that was covering her pink lips and quickly distanced himself from her. He then raised his right hand to press his heart and bowed to her."Your…No, Miss, please forgive my rude behavior just now. At the same time, I also want to ask you not to care about my identity. Of course, you can rest assured. I, Rit Iroya, swear to you in my name that I am definitely not a spy. I am just…um…a nameless commoner wearing a cloak and living in the capital.”
Ritter's tone and attitude were very sincere. He could only hope that this young lady would do as he said. Otherwise, he would have to choose between killing this young lady or knocking her out and waiting here until nightfall to bring her to Merlin under the cover of the night so that Merlin could decide how to deal with her.
The young lady, who knew very well that Ritter was trying to be polite before resorting to force, laughed for a while without knowing the deeper meaning. She tidied up her white princess dress that had been messed up by him and looked at him, who was attracted by her laughter and raised his head to look at her."Ro…Ritey, let me tell you, the two things I hate the most are being lied to and being threatened. However, seeing that you are so polite and sincere in threatening me, I will not hold these two things against you. As for the fact that you are a German, I don't care, and there is no need to care, because whether it is a German or a Celt, no matter what kind of people, they are all the same in my eyes.”
Although her tone was elegant and her voice was sweet, Litte could tell from her words that she did not treat people as humans.
"Ah, right, my name is Morgan Pendragon. From now on, you can call me Morgan. This is a privilege I give you. Also…um…this is the antidote. Take it.”
The sudden 180-degree change in attitude of this…No, Morgan made Ritter feel a little strange, but he didn't hesitate to stuff the antidote into his mouth. The reason was that he felt that Morgan, who could poison him by touching his cloak, didn't need to use such a method to poison him.
Morgan's emerald eyes widened when he saw Ritter swallow the antidote without any hesitation."Aren't you afraid that I'll give you poison…?”
"Your actions just now told me that you didn't need to use such a method to poison me.!”
Ritter didn't expect Morgan to release a fireball for him to see, and he didn't expect her to be a Mage. Therefore, Ritter's eyes were even wider than hers.
Of course, Ritter's eyes were even wider than Morgan's because female mages were regarded as evil existences in England... No, to be precise, in the entire British Isles, and were hunted down by the Church and heretics. Not only was Morgan, the princess and regent of the Empire, a female mage, but she also let him know this secret...
