Chapter 661 - First Come, First Serve (2/2)

Roland, on the other hand, took the opportunity to survey the surrounding landscape.

Everyone’s spiritual consciousness was different. For example, Andonara’s spiritual consciousness, no matter when or where, was full of sunlight.

In a small house on a beach, there were portraits of Roland hanging on the walls.

There were at least three thousand of them.

It was clear from this who was most important in Andonara’s mind.

But nothing related to others could be found in Stephanie’s spiritual consciousness.

It stood to reason that anyone with a normal personality would have someone that was fairly important to them.

Could they be hidden in the pyramid at the bottom…

Roland thought about it, not bothering to delve into it; it was someone else’s privacy after all, and it was best not to look.

Soon, Stephanie snapped out of her thoughts and asked, “Roland, if I take you to the royal tombs, how sure are you that you can find the culprit?”

“No promises.” Roland shrugged.

“That doesn’t matter, it’s better than doing nothing.” Stephanie took a deep breath. “I suddenly realized that if we chat in this way, we almost don’t have to worry about the content of the conversation being known by a third party. Roland, in the future, if you have anything to talk about, you can just talk to me in the spiritual world.”

Roland shook his head. “Interesting proposal, but it’s not a good one.”

“Why?”

“Because your spiritual power is too weak. I’m trying to suppress my spiritual fluctuations now, which is why I haven’t made you feel uncomfortable.”

“Then we’ll continue like this from now on,” said Stephanie matter-of-factly.

Roland shook his head. “Once or twice is no problem, but if done frequently, the fragments of my spiritual fluctuations will scatter more and more throughout your spiritual world, and eventually you will be influenced by my spiritual fragments. Your personality will gradually become similar to mine, and eventually even the same. This is also a kind of infestation, got it?”.

“Too bad.” Stephanie shook her head rather regretfully. “So Roland, do you have time to help me go over to the royal tomb and see what’s going on?”

“No problem, of course.” Roland nodded.

Stephanie laughed lightly. “Thank you so much. I won’t let you do it for nothing, money…”

“No need.” Roland interrupted her with a wave of his hand. “We’re friends, and I’d help in these kinds of matters if I can. There’s no need to pay. That’s too alienating.”

Stephanie looked at him for a moment and smiled lightly. “Yes, we are friends.”

The two of them exited Stephanie’s spiritual world, and when Stephanie tried to stand up, she realized that she was a little dizzy and slumped back down onto her chair.

Roland used Sobering on her and said, “Rest, your soul is too weak. It must be a bit uncomfortable after being in there for so long.”

Stephanie pressed her hands to her temples and slowly said, “It seems that I have to find time to exercise my magic in the future. Why don’t you teach me?”

Stephanie was also a Mage, but no match for Roland.

The majority of Mages overemphasized a certain subject. Out of the eight types of magic, she could only get sixty points in evocation and all other seven types would be zero.

In contrast, Roland could manage eighty points in evocation and spatial magic, and exceed the passing mark in all six other subjects.

After she rubbed her head for a while and felt more comfortable, she asked, “By the way, how are the young masters I sent out?”

“Quite obedient,” Roland said with a smile. “They’re being instructed by the professionals of my clan, and I’m sure you’ll see them in six months with a greatly changed mentality.” It was no joke. In that big furnace, even scrap metal can be refined into steel, so getting a bunch of noble young soldiers to change their mentalities could still be done.

“I also heard that you guys got a lot of succubi and some kind of succubus contract?”

Roland was a bit bored, and when he heard Stephanie taking the initiative to talk about this, he said excitedly, “What, the Fareins royal family is willing to receive succubi?”

“Of course not! We don’t have any positive feelings toward the demons.” Stephanie immediately refused. “I’m just curious about why you don’t contract one. I’ve heard succubi are very attractive. Aren’t you going to have a taste?”

Roland looked at her as if she were an idiot.

This made Stephanie deeply uncomfortable, and after a while she said helplessly, “I see, it must be because Andonara is too good, too beautiful, and you are now too high-minded to see a succubus.”

Roland was still silent.

In reality, that wasn’t the reason at all. Roland was also a man, and he had the same little thoughts that normal men had.

He also found the succubi attractive.

But the problem was that… he had two women, and if he had any more, his kidneys really couldn’t take it.

When Roland didn’t say anything, Stephanie stood up. “I feel much more comfortable now. Let’s take a trip to the royal tomb.”

“Okay.”

The Fareins royal tomb was on the western outskirts of the kingdom, nestled in a U-shaped valley.

The entrance was heavily guarded, and two troops were stationed year-round on the valley’s crest. One was normal infantry but fairly elite, and the other was made up of elite bowmen.

Once inside the entrance, the carriage went down the cyan stone path, which was straight and surrounded by many beautiful trees and grasses.

After about ten minutes, the carriage stopped.

Roland jumped down and saw the huge mountain towering in front of the wagon.

The mountain was very straight, the peak to the foot of the mountain was almost vertical, and in the center of the mountain, there was a huge, yellow, copper gate. Many people would assume it was a gate made of gold when they first saw it.

The gate was massive, about a hundred meters wide and about two hundred meters high.

This thing was a behemoth, and there was no way a normal person could push it.

Roland examined the golden door for a while and then noticed that it was bronze.

When pure bronze wasn’t rusted, it was golden.

And near the gate, there were two small garrison posts.

At the sight of Stephanie and Roland, someone immediately trotted down, walked up to Stephanie, and bent down to shout, “First Princess, what brings you here again?”

“Can I not come?” Stephanie looked at the other party, her tone rather unkind.

“I wouldn’t dare stand in your way.” This soldier bent down on one knee and said nervously, “First Princess, someone has already gone in the royal tomb, and according to the rules we received, only one person can go in at a time during non-sacrificial times.”

Stephanie glared at the soldier. “Who is it?”

The soldier was too frightened to move. “The Third Prince.”

After a long moment of silence, Stephanie grunted and said, “I’ll see what he’s up to.”
