Chapter 364: Arrangement and Moving Forward 2
Garen stroked this set of armor as he daydreamed one that was even more advanced.
The technology of the Secret Service was so advanced that it already had such an armor set. If that was the case, then they should have even better armor which had an even stronger Solidifying Tactics engraved onto it. It would collect the emission of totem power and release it when it was needed.
Garen was stunned. Totem users who possessed this armor would be much stronger than the typical totem users. If one were to have very powerful armor…
He stopped his train of thought.
He reached out his hand and pulled the thread beside his bed.
Ring ring.
A clear and crisp bell was rung, and footsteps could clearly be heard coming from outside.
The restless Lala soon appeared outside the room. Her face was filled with joy as she saw Garen.
”You finally came out! There are a few letters for you recently, all of them want you to be there as soon as possible. Even the messenger kept reminding me multiple times.”
She felt relief as he saw Garen came out as her main support had returned.
Garen adjusted his collar and walked out of the room to the wooden sofa in the living room, sitting down.
”Where’re the letters? Bring them to me. Didn’t they say that I should be there 2 months later? Why are they rushing now?”
Lala walked towards a vase which was placed at a corner of the living room and poured out all the letters contained inside it. All of these letters were yellow and square in shape.
”The messenger said that there was an emergency and they needed a helping hand.” Lala arranged the stack of letters by the date and placed them in front of Garen before she stood at one side waiting for more orders.
Occasionally, she would give Garen a strange look as she compared Garen’s thick armor and her sleeveless white dress.
Garen picked up the first envelope and took out the letter.
There was merely a line written on the white piece of paper.
‘The reporting date has been brought forward due to an emergency. Vice Captain Garen Trejons, kindly report into the Wells Castle as soon as possible.’
The date written was: Sun Calendar 3568 11th of May.
There was also a red circular stamp where the word Confidential was faintly inked. It was the word confidential made out of three alphabets.
Garen opened the remaining letters and all of them were basically urging his earliest arrival. The most recent one was three days ago, which was on the 14th.
”I wonder what does this Vice Captain position His Majesty has assigned me does. It doesn’t sound too bad but it doesn’t look good either.” Garen placed down the letter. ”Are there any more?’
He looked at Lala.
”Yes, and they are invitations to the ball from the Noble households.” Lala answered immediately as she ran out of the room and returned in a short while with a box of invitations. These invitations were crafted delicately.
Garen glanced at the names on the letter and they were all relative households of the Trejons Household. He picked out the invitations from Earl Baxy and Viscount Lavel and was about to throw the remaining to the side.
Suddenly he saw a familiar name, Prynne.
Prynne Acivis.
His name was printed black on a golden surface, with an image of two blades crossing each other.
Garen picked up the envelope and opened the letter.
‘My best friend, Dear Acacia:
Oh wait, I should be calling you Garen. Alright. How are you Garen? I heard the incident of the Trejons Household and your current situation seems dire. Just let me know if you need a helping hand. You should know very well of my grandfather’s networking.
Furthermore, your cousin has sent Andel to my place and I will arrange everything nicely, so don’t worry about it. Malin is here as well. She doesn’t seem to be in a good mood as Baron Delt has passed away, and mistress Callaway is missing. I have sent a few people to track her down but to no avail.
The kingdom’s situation is rather complicated. I have told my grandfather about your situation and he also know that you have given an item called the Green Vine Sphere to His Majesty and that you also join the Secret Service. He suggest you to enroll in it so that you can avoid the complicated situation in the Kingdom. It’s best for you to stay low profile. Although you’re very strong, the Kingdom has many strong people as wel,l so please be careful.’
Garen reread the last part of the message where he told him to be careful. It was obvious that Prynne knew much more than him due to his Household’s connections.
He placed down the envelope, placed both of his hands together and crumpled the letter into white dust as he threw them into the dustbin nearby.
He had already memorised the address written in it.
Prynne’s grandfather was one of the two people with the most authority in the kingdom, excluding His Majesty.
These two were originally the high class nobles in their respective area and both of them hold the title of Grand Duke. However, as the area deteriorated, both of them moved to the kingdom and became the new dividends in power. The Grand Duke of the Iron Tank City was not comparable to these ones as these stood on the top of the country. They were the upper class nobles who had been around for thousands of years with deep backgrounds and incredible strength. They had at least form three totem users, or else they wouldn’t be able to migrate a huge amount of people to the Kingdom. They definitely had Spritualized totem users, maybe even more than one too.
These superior nobles hold a great portion of the whole kingdom’s power, and the remaining portions were held by the remaining nobles, which formed the entire strength of the Kovitan Empire.
As Prynne’s grandfather, his intel would most likely be accurate as no one had no reason to lie to him.
