Chapter 566 (1/2)
Otto Luoxi locked himself in the study after he returned hos had turned out this way
Ever since the king had been ill, Appen appeared to have been in a great shock until recently, when he was finally able to recollect himself But the way he spoke and the manner in which he conducted himself were somewhat different than before
To put it more accurately, he had become rather unfamiliar to Otto
As Appen's playmate, Otto believed that he knew the prince very well Appen was not that type of power-hungry person ould attain his ends regardless of the means Sometimes he even felt the prince was too juvenile to be a co Because of this, he planned to, in collaboration with Belinda and Oro, fully support Appen and help hiovernmental duties after the prince ascended the throne After all, the three fa since the foundation of the Kingdom of Dawn
That was the reason he had replied ”Yes” without hesitation
However, Otto found that Appen did not care about his answer
He asked him that question sih the three fa to support the royal fahness really needed their assistance
At this thought, Otto felt Appen h Perhaps he should take the initiative to do so about it
But what should he do?
Neither phar's illness He had no knowledge of medical treatment and certainly could not completely ease Appen's mind
[Or cheer the prince up?] Otto pondered
He had vainly tried numerous times to do so Perhaps it was impossible to raise the prince's spirits by hiether Only in this ere they possibly able to find the reason behind Appen's behavior
With this thought, Otto got to his feet abruptly and walked out
”Master, it's late now Where are you going?” The steward trotted to hih the hall
”To Tokat's place I' over!”
Otto knew every turn of the road leading to the territory of the Tokats' As Otto knew Tokat well, nobody in the ht to thewith his guards
”Hey, what brought you here?” Oro took off the sweaty headband and tossed the guard his wooden sword ”You need a wing to tell you”
He pulled Oro to the resting roohts and plan At length, he asked, ”What do you think?”
”To find out why Appen has become so weird?” Oro twitched his mouth ”Sorry, I'm not interested”
”Hey, you”
”He's a prince, the successor of the King of Dawn He'll not be our buddy forever, don't you understand?” Oro shook his head ”Plus, Appen is 20 years old He isn't a seven or eight-year-old any longer We don't have the obligation to cheer him up every tiuts, and then fine, I don't want to be nosey”
”Aren't you planning to assist Appen Moya?”
”It'll be called 'assistance' only if His Highness needs it Otherwise, you're just being annoying”
[Did he also notice the change in the prince?] Otto thought with a quiver ”But we three families always support Moya”
”Three families?” Oro smiled carelessly ”After Andrea died, there are only you andhis hand ”Since you're here, let et about these trifles You look so stressed”
”Andrea is alive”
Oro stopped abruptly
[Sorry] Otto apologized in silence He had failed to keep Andrea's secret
”Andrea Quinn is still alive” He repeated ”I saw her in Border Tohen I went to the Kingdom of Graycastle”
Oro instantly turned around and dashed to hi him to the wall
”What, what did you say? Is, is it true?”
