Chapter 471 (1/2)
Gilad Ilus was sent by his majesty Victor to the scar of the holy sword for training in the army years ago.
However, those who really know know know that this is to keep him away from the political vortex of yarinks and protect him. By the way, it can also let him master the third legion with incomparable combat effectiveness. It can be said that it will kill many birds with one stone. When he returns, it will be the day to accept the crown.
Prince Gillard has not appeared in public in arlinks for a long time. People are more familiar with the friendly Princess aurelia.
Suddenly, hearing that Prince Gillard was about to return to the royal capital, the people of alinks were boiling.
”Did you hear that Prince Gillard is coming back!”
”Doesn't it mean that he has entered the territory of alinks and will enter the city soon? But why didn't he see the welcome ceremony?”
”It is said that he suddenly decided to come back without notice.”
”Wait! Remember the gossip before?”
”You mean... That Donne was your Majesty's illegitimate son?”
”Don't you think it has something to do with the gossip?”
”It's very possible for you to say so!”
”Of course, Princess Aurelia had already announced that she had given up the right of inheritance and firmly placed the crown on his head, but now a potential competitor suddenly appeared. Who's not in a hurry? You're not in a hurry?”
”Of course I'm not in a hurry. Just give me royal status and let me enjoy life...”
”Could it be that his majesty Victor suddenly became seriously ill and knew that the time was short, so he was specially recalled to the king's capital to announce his inheritance?”
”This possibility is too small. Didn't your majesty Victor appear at the glory Festival a while ago? He's so healthy. I haven't heard any special news from the palace recently.”
”It may involve the secrets of the royal family... Anyway, I still feel that Prince Gillard's sudden return is a little strange.”
Just overnight, almost all the streets and alleys in arlinks were discussing Prince Gillard, and the topic in the tavern was completely occupied by the news.
While eating hot hot pot and drinking wine, many people discussed the purpose of Prince Gillard's return to yarinks. Just when everyone didn't know, Prince Gillard had entered the palace through secret channels.
”I haven't been back for years... It hasn't changed at all.”
Touching the cold wall, Gillard flashed a trace of memory on her face.
Next to Gillard, a man in a cloak smiled and said, ”Your Highness, I don't think it's time to remember the past. We should go to see his majesty victor.”
Gillard's eyes stagnated for a moment, and then his eyes gradually became firm: ”... You're right, Marcus, this is not a time to waste time. Let's go.”
In the study, Victor looked at all kinds of news from his men and smiled bitterly. He shook his head and muttered to himself: ”my son... Why are you so reckless... Wouldn't coming back at this time make people outside believe that absurd statement more...”
Victor was quite upset. It was clear that everything was going well, but now everything was out of control because of this inexplicable rumor.
Ellington was attacked by Castle Palmer after the animal tide. If it was not instructed by the cardier family, ghosts would not believe it!
When Donne was pinned down, Gillard hurried back to yarinks. Behind all this, there was the shadow of the Kadir family... And even the action of the spade family!
”Can't they... Finally sit still?”
Victor sighed and said to the empty corner next to him, ”master Clark, you will protect me, won't you?”
There was an ominous feeling in his heart that the Kadir family might have made the final treason decision. In order to achieve their goal, they were afraid to assassinate themselves.
”The city of silver does not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. Prince Gillard's claim for inheritance is not within the scope of our intervention.”
After a pause, the invisible Clark said again, ”but if you are assassinated, I will protect you.”
Victor breathed a sigh of relief: ”thank you, so I'm much more at ease.”
Jean's disciple, Clark, is a very powerful and extraordinary magician. He is also famous in the city of silver. With his protection, ordinary assassins can't get close to victor at all.
”Here comes the prince.”
As soon as Clark's voice fell, a noisy voice came from outside: ”no, your highness, you can't go in without notification!”
”Presumptuous! But if you haven't come back for several years, don't you pay attention to my prince!?”
With a bang, Gillard pushed open the door of the study and saw Victor sitting inside.
”Father.”
”You go down.”
Victor held back the guards, then looked at Gillard with a complex face: ”why did you choose to come back at this time? You should understand the impact of coming back at this time.”
Gillard strode forward and said loudly, ”father, if you don't want me to come back at this time, you should give me a reason to rest assured. However, from your letter to me, I didn't see your expectations for me. Instead, I was full of trust and expectations for that Donne, which made me wonder whether his real name was Ilus.”
”Ridiculous! How could I have illegitimate children!”
Victor frowned and scolded, ”it's just those people outside. How can you be affected by this rumor? Gillard, my son, your heart is in a mess!”
”When a hundred people believe it, the rumor is no longer a rumor.”
Gillard said calmly, ”if you want me to return to the scar of the holy sword, make a prince now.”
Victor said patiently, ”don't worry, Prince Li. You are too young. My crown belongs to you after all. Be patient. You need to be patient, my son! You have inherited the name of our greatest ancestor. You are destined to bring glory to this country! - who is he?”
Victor noticed the cloaked man next to Gillard.
