Chapter 216 - Flaws Shared by Most of the Princesses of Hollevin’s Royal Family (1/2)
Roland wouldn’t want to go to a place like that again-it was too dirty and smelly.
The two magic spiders were climbing on the walls by the side of the road and had been trailing Antis.
Roland, on the other hand, comforted Mijil, who would most likely have been captured if not for the presence of the defensive Spell Puppet earlier.
However, it was strange that Mijil’s father actually knew that his in-laws had left a house for Mijil.
In addition, Roland felt quite anonyed that it was clear that Mijil’s father was after his own daughter, but on second thought, this meant the middle-aged merchant didn’t really think much of Roland.
He knew it was Roland who had taken Mijil-a Mage who had taken his daughter, a daughter he didn’t want. He had to be grateful to Roland for that, according to sense and reason. However, he had hired Rogues to come and s.n.a.t.c.h Mijil.
It seemed as if there was no consideration for Roland’s ident.i.ty or profession at all.
Roland felt sorry for Mijil to have been born to such a father… Roland didn’t know that Mijil wasn’t the middle-aged merchant’s biological daughter.
But it was good that her mother was not bad. As Roland thought about this, he took Mijil’s hand and led her to Kaka’s manor.
The guards switched back to the original two, and when they saw Roland, they opened the door without saying a word. Roland nodded to thank them, and there, at the door, he met the steward of this manor, who brought the two of them outside the door of Kaka’s study.
Knocking lightly on the door, Kaka’s voice came from inside. “Please come in.”
Pus.h.i.+ng the door in, Roland found Kaka bent over his desk studying spell models and asked, “How’s the learning going?”
“It feels almost done.”
Kaka waved his hand and a blue s.h.i.+eld-holding Spell Puppet appeared in front of him, almost identical to the one Roland had summoned, but much smaller.
This was due to Kaka’s lack of magic power.
Just summoning this Spell Puppet had almost left him without mana.
After catching his breath, he stood up and said, “I plan to turn in this spell model at the a.s.sociation’s headquarters tomorrow.” “Don’t you want to be more skilled at it before doing so?” Roland asked.
Kaka shook his head and smiled bitterly. “In five more days at the most, I’ll be leaving the city, so I can’t put it off any longer, and after turning it over to the headquarters, It’s also going to take at least two days or so for the judging period. If it drags on, it will have to be issued.”
In that case, it really couldn’t wait any longer.
“Then I’ll start by wis.h.i.+ng you success.”
Kaka smiled. “Thank you… By the way, have you found any clues about the queen?”
“Just found a dress, a silk gown.” Roland shrugged.
“Then it looks like the queen’s done for,” Kaka said rather regretfully.
“Are you so sure?”
“Her clothes were stripped,” Kaka said helplessly. “The queen is very pretty, and if I were alone with her, I would most likely get some ideas.”
Roland was a little surprised. “Is she really so pretty-how does she compare to Princess Evelyn?”
“Each has her own charm, but the queen’s more elegant.” Kaka showed a yearning look. “At a glance, she’s the kind of woman that makes you lose yourself.”
It seemed that Kaka liked mature women, and Princess Evelyn looked a little too immature.
