Heroes of Might and Magic: Knight Chapter 163: Identity
By the time Richard returned to the hotel, the sky had darkened.
In the past few days, Richard spent time with Messiah every day until the library was about to close. The people in the hotel had already made time to bring dinner to Richard.
"Sir Richard, dinner is ready."
"Well, come in."
The dinner is still very sumptuous. Compared with the people in Richard's previous life, the knights in this world are all considered to be big eaters.
The thing in front of Richard was enough for at least four or five people in his previous life.
While Richard was eating with gusto, Imo's voice came from outside the door.
"Sir Richard, the investigation you asked us to investigate two days ago has come to fruition."
"Well, come in quickly."
Richard didn't care that he was eating and called Immo in quickly. This matter was more important than eating.
"Sir, the Miss Messiah you asked us to investigate is not a lady from a noble family. She is the youngest daughter of His Majesty Renne. She is 17 years old this year. Because she has never appeared in a formal occasion, so The sense of presence is not very strong.”
It took so many geniuses for Yusi to get the exact news. Except that Yusi was founded in the capital and was not very powerful,
Richard himself has to bear half of the blame. When he issued the order, he first limited the scope to the upper-class nobles of the royal capital, ignoring the possibility of his royal status.
Afraid of any misunderstanding caused by the tracking, he ordered Yusi not to follow him directly, and Yusi started to investigate with a dark look.
After checking the names of all the royal ladies with the name of Messiah, but no results came out, I thought of the possibility that the other party was the princess,
Although Messiah is low-key and has always been protected by Ren, she is still a serious princess after all.
As long as you want to check, you can still find relevant information. After Imo got the information and confirmed it repeatedly, he immediately came to report to Richard,
Although Richard was a little surprised when he heard the true identity of Messiah, it was still reasonable.
What gives him a headache now is that the difficulty of marrying Messiah has increased a lot,
If Messiah is the daughter of a noble family in the royal capital, he is almost 99% sure,
Although the nobles in the royal capital regard the northern nobles as country bumpkins, that’s not the case.
In terms of title, he, Richard, will soon be granted the title of Marquis and step into the kingdom's higher-level aristocratic class.
In terms of strength, the strength in Richard's hand can lift most of the nobles in the capital and beat him up,
The financial resources may be a little worse than those of some established nobles, but after the soap business has completely stabilized the market and the development of the wilderness has gradually begun,
The Hunter family’s financial resources definitely have a chance to reach the level of wealth that rivals other countries,
No normal noble in the royal capital would refuse to marry the Hunter family,
But marrying a princess is much more complicated. When it comes to this level of marriage, there are more factors to consider,
It’s difficult, but you should be 80% sure.
…
In the palace,
Ren and Harris were talking, and as usual, the waiters on the left and right had cleared out.
"How are things going."
"The person has entered the city and is now staying at the home of Marquis Pagat."
"Haha, the Marquis of Afragart, this is the nobleman of the kingdom."
Although Lane was laughing, Harris could hear the anger behind the chuckle,
The Marquis of Pagat is considered one of the upper-class nobles of the kingdom. He has been a noble since the founding of the country and has been passed down to this day.
We should be together with the kingdom, both prosperous and devastated,
Wren doesn't expect this kind of family to be able to break up the family and the country, but at least don't be a traitor.
"Continue to observe closely, I want to see how many people in this royal capital are afraid of the Marquis of Gatt."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Ren's hand squeezed the handle of the chair tightly. Harris knew that this was Ren's habit of being extremely angry.
Ren has always shown a peaceful face. Except for the last time the inheritance law was revised, he almost never got angry.
But in fact, Ren is just able to control his emotions better,
I won’t show my incompetent and angry side, but I always have to vent my emotions. Some people rely on big meals, and some people rely on some inconspicuous actions.
Wren belongs to the latter, and Harris is a very observant person. He has been in contact with Wren for a long time, so he naturally discovered Wren's habit.
Harris didn't know whether he should report this to the furious Lane.
"Is there anything else?"
Ren also noticed Harris's hesitation and asked.
"It's about Princess Messiah."
"Oh? What happened to the little Messiah?"
Speaking of Messiah, Ren’s hand on the chair unconsciously relaxed a little,
There was finally a trace of tenderness in his eyes. To say that Messiah was loved by Ren was not enough,
But Messiah has a pure personality and is a little obsessed with her own world. She has been obedient since she was a child and has never caused trouble to Renn. In addition, she is also very delicate in appearance. Renn still has some feelings for Messiah. Caring.
"Which family are you from?"
The meaning of Ren's question was actually very clear. He acquiesced that he must at least be a noble of the royal capital. If he was a commoner, Harris would probably have people disappear from the royal capital the next day.
As for whether to enter the Jinlong River or be buried in a mass grave, it depends on Harris's mood.
"It's from the Hunter family."
"The Hunter family?"
"That's Richard Hunter."
The Hunter family really has no sense of presence in the royal capital. Even if Richard took off Grugesh's head, the name that impressed everyone more was still Richard.
Ren didn’t realize which family the Hunter family was without Harris’ reminder.
"Richard?"
Ren frowned slightly after realizing who it was. This was a part of his next plan.
"It is bitterly cold in the north. If you are afraid that His Highness Messiah will be wronged in the past, how about I go and say hello?"
Harris thought that Ren was not satisfied with the contact between the two, and the purpose of saying hello was to reveal the identity of Messiah to Richard and let him retreat.
"No need, just send someone to keep an eye on him. Unless Richard does something excessive, don't worry about him."
"The focus is still on that matter. This time I want to completely remove this cancer from the church."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Since Renn has no intention of blocking the two people's communication, Harris will certainly not take the initiative to be a villain.
After Harris left, Lane slowly thought about this issue,
The Golden Dragon Kingdom is the most powerful country in mankind. There are only a few self-proclaimed national governments in the southern mountains.
The Charman family just doesn’t care. It’s a place that costs a lot of money to fight, and there is almost no profit after taking it. It’s not worth the Golden Dragon Kingdom’s attention.
Those who can be on equal footing with the Golden Dragon Kingdom are all non-human races, and it is impossible to marry with them,
So the women of the Charman family do not need to bear too many political tasks, and most of them live a happy and comfortable life,
From Ren's original intention, although Messiah marrying Richard is not unacceptable, it is not a good option.
Not only in the eyes of the nobles, the Northland is considered a rural place, but in the eyes of Ren, it is also the edge of the kingdom, a bitter and cold place,
It is far away from the royal capital, so it is not certain whether Messiah will live well after marrying her.
But looking at it now, whether you go to the Northland or not, the Golden Dragon is about to betray its alliance. If Longxi Pass cannot be defended, it is still a question whether Wang Du can defend it.
In a sense, Northland may be safer than the capital.
Forget it, let this matter take its course. The most important thing now is to clean up the church that has become more and more active recently, and then we can fully deal with the orc kingdom.
Thinking of this, Ren's expression became sharper unconsciously...
