Chapter 842 (2/2)

”Co himself, a familiar voice ca for you for quite a while”

”Officer of the Ministry of Agriculture, Prius Dessau sends his best regards,” as soon as he entered the rooht greeted a king But due to the extra fat on his belly, the gestures he made were far less handso down

”Please rise” The king was sitting behind a long desk, sood job recently that even Barov can't stop praising you, which is rather rare Therefore, I have a new task for you”

”I'm at your command” Prius stood up respectfully

”Listen carefully This is a top secret Even in the City Hall, not many people know it,” Roland said in a serious tone, ”and it's so significant that it concerns the future development of Neverwinter As soon as you accept it, you can't tell anyone what you see and hear without my permission The reason I chose you is that you're thethere's nobody else has done it before, although you're not indispensable If you can do it well, the compensation won't be an issue I want your answer now”

Prius was startled He did not expect His Majesty toto do with the ive hih task

”Ah, forget about the significance, the co but trouble To be involved in the king's secret is like a suicide”Subconsciously, he wanted to decline it, but he sed the words on the tip of his tongue ”Wait a minute Who do you think the person is? He is the Lord of Neverwinter, the King of Graycastle!”

”When the King wants an officer to do so, does he need to consult the officer in advance? Unless the officer has planned to rebel and hide in his territory Otherwise, he should take the order no 's wrath His Majesty doesn't order ive me the chance to refuse”

Prius sed aWimbledon is different from most other lords, and he means every word he says, didn't I just tell him 'I'm at your command?”

”I just expressed my loyalty, then I directly tell him that I don't want to or I'uess I would hold a grudge if not flying into a rage on the spot In that case, not only won't I get proht not even be able to be a common official either, not to mention the Award and Honor Ceremony and the abundant prize”

At this thought, Prius really wanted to slap himself

After hesitating for quite a while, he eventually blurted out, ”I'd like to take this task”

He could not afford to lose his position He had lost his identity as a knight, and if he went on losing his official position as the superintendent of the poultry factory, he would really have nothing left at all

At thisthat comforted him was His Majesty's words 'you're thethere is no precedent'”At least, this means a sort of confirmation of my capability?”

”Alright” Roland s to the empty space beside him, and then looked at Prius and said, ”Now follow me to a place”

”Where?” Prius asked immediately, anxious and a little panic

”The Third Border City,” the King said while raising his eyebrow ”Have you heard of it?”
