The Amber Sword: Letter 224 of Levine

"Do you have anything to tell me about Her Highness the Princess?" Brando asked after the Madara Queen left.

"Yes, there are two letters in total. One letter was written to you by His Highness Halutz, and the other was His Highness Eldest Prince. He entrusted Her Highness the Princess to let me transfer it to you."

"Eldest Prince?" Brando thought for a while, thinking that Eldest Prince should be a little bit quiet in the north, unless the other party really does not hesitate to the Aouine's throne. But judging from his actions of placing one's own sister Kiara into the mission, he is not a person without ambition.

To the first heir of the Sifah family, to be honest, he was very impressed. Although born with a disability, he is wise, calm, and able to withstand others. If the Sifah family is in line with orthodoxy, Brando even thinks that Eldest Prince is more suitable to inherit the throne of Aouine's because he is male. After all, Aouine has no previous example of a female monarch, and character of Halutz Too weak.

Unfortunately, the Sifah family has lost its Aouine legitimacy and legitimacy since being abandoned by Lion Heart Sword. Thinking of this, Brando could not help but glance at the Lion Heart Holy Sword held by Freya in his hand.

"Is the letter here?"

"On me." Freya opened the belt bag and took out two well-preserved letters. She folded the two letters together and passed them with her hands.

Brando came down the stairs, took the letter, and was about to open, but Delphine's voice asked behind him: "Need me to avoid it?"

Brando glanced back at her, pondered for a moment, and shook his head. "No. You stay, I might need your advice."

He hasn't planned to believe this woman completely, but Her Highness the Princess and Halutz and his alliance are not on the table, but compared with other secrets they have experienced along the way, this is nothing. .

"Delphine?" Freya only noticed prime minister's daughter on the terrace at this time, and could not help showing a surprised look: "Are you ...?"

"Your Lord Thane saved my life. In return, I now serve Fir Tree Shire wholeheartedly." Delphine replied with a smile.

"Brando. What's the matter?" Freya picked the eyebrow full of British spirit, and she was a little bad. She put one hand on the hilt of Lion Heart Sword, as if she only had a bad word. Will pull the sword out of the sheath.

She learned from Ciel and Amandina that everything that happened in Lucita happened before and after, and she knew very well how Romaine was captured by Tree Shepherds and brought in Dragon of Twilight. It can be said that during the disaster that day, The Silver Queen and Tree Shepherds each have to pay one-third of the responsibility. The remaining one-third will count towards this woman.

Freya and Romaine have known each other since childhood. They grew up together in Bucce. The acquaintance between them can be said to be go one step further more than Brando. As a damaged Romaine's person, she did not immediately send out a sword, and it was on Brando's face.

Brando coldly glanced at Delphine. This woman was playing with her trick again. Others may not understand it, but he knew it no more than she intentionally caused Freya to be angry.

With his eyes, he warned the other party not to make extra knots. Then I told him about his experience from Lucita to the Sea of ​​Elements, and after being teleported to Rosalind, and Freya; telling his current relationship with this prime minister's daughter and the emerald mystery related to the fall of the natural orb This person is from Bucce's Valkyrie Young Lady.

Freya listened to the description of Brando's, and her expression eased a little. She did not expect that Brando experienced so many things by herself. At the end, she could n’t help but asked subconsciously: "I didn't expect that you have experienced so much. You Are you all right, Brando? "

Brando shook his head.

But Freya thought for a while, after all, she wasn't the ignorant girl at the time. I quickly found a doubt: "But Brando, you wanted to kill her when you were on the boat. Why didn't you do it in the end? Did she take the initiative to tell you the secret about the jade mystery?"

Brando suddenly turned red. Recalling that ridiculous night again, he quickly coughed and said vaguely, "This, maybe ..."

Delphine Seeing his embarrassment, he snickered on the terrace.

"About?"

"wú ......" Brando can only shift the topic: "Look at the letter first. I thought it would be Her Highness the Princess. Write to me. I didn't expect it was Halutz, what did His Highness Little Prince say in the letter?"

This topic has been changed very bluntly, but Freya has no doubt about Brando. She shook her head very honestly: "I do n’t know, this is a letter written by your Royal Highness Prince to you, how can I steal it? See? "

Brando just opened the envelope and shook out the letter. The Halutz envelope was sealed with Magic ink pad covering his seal. It has emblem with stars, moon and lily, and emblem of Correct Aouine royal family. However, as the heir to the kingdom, his private emblem is slightly different from the Gryphine, with more ivy ornaments.

He opened letter and glanced at it. There were only a few jargon on the first page of the letter. Little Prince first greeted him as student, and then briefly described the process of returning to Aouine's, learning the progress of Black Magic, etc. The wording and tone full of honorific made him smile a little, and once again remembered his introverted student.

"What did His Highness Halutz write on the letter?" Freya saw the smile on Brando's face and asked curiously. Obviously, this courteous and shy Highness Little Prince is also very popular in Fir Tree Shire.

"Nothing. He said hello to you. He said in the letter that Ms. Freya is an excellent and noble Knight. Unlike his teacher, you will not know the content of this letter until I open it. . "

"What do you mean?"

"That means you won't peek, let me say hello to him on his behalf."

"Yeah, Brando, what did you teach His Highness Halutz, how can you explain it to Her Highness the Princess in this way?" Freya replied angrily.

"Isn't this great? Only boys with a sense of humor can win the favor of women." Brando said as he opened the second page of stationery and read on.

"Oh, isn't it?" Freya gave a special glance at Delphine standing on the terrace. Although she was angry with Brando, it did not mean she was a fool.

Brando coughed loudly immediately.

"I will told Romaine's," she said, holding her sword, blushing, and gritting her teeth, "Brando."

prime minister's daughter laughed without saying a word.

But at this time Brando picked eyebrow. He snorted softly, and suddenly he closed the stationery with a strange look on his face.

"What's wrong?" Freya noticed Brando's and stopped joking. Asked seriously, too.

"Halutz says he doesn't want to inherit the Aouine's throne"

"What?"

"What?"

One after the other, Freya and Delphine on the terrace speak at the same time, but the previous voice is just a simple surprise, prime minister's daughter seems to have heard an eternal talk.

Just as a simple person like a white paper who cannot understand the ambitions of others, ambitious people often have difficulty understanding the desire for freedom and dullness like Halutz.

I want to come in Delphine. Is there anyone in this world who is not keen on power and status? Then this man must be a fool.

But Brando is barely able to understand their own student idea. They are actually an humanoid. If it is not restricted by responsibility, interests, power and ambition are not actually what they are after. Halutz step by step strives to mature He just got up, just to realize the expectations of Princess Gryphine on him, and after he understood his responsibility, he might add a stumbling block between the king and his subjects.

However, none of this is what this Little Prince wants.

He was a little bit fascinated before he said to the others: "Halutz said in the letter that he is not the person Aouine needs. Aouine needs a real hero, but that hero is not him."

"How can he be so willful?" Freya was almost shut up in surprise: "What about Her Highness the Princess?"

"Her Highness the Princess has no objections."

"As King of Aouine, he has the power to transfer the crown to the heirs he entrusted, as long as this person has sufficient qualifications." Delphine said suddenly, "For example, the heirs of the royal blood, or, say, a Prince. "

"A prince?"

Delphine set his sights on Brando: "If Lord Thane is married to Princess Gryphine, he can be the prince. In Aouine, no one is more qualified than him for this position."

Freya opened his mouth in surprise. Unbelievably looked at the Brando in front of him.

"Indeed," Brando nodded: "This is also one of the opinions of Halutz. The other candidate is His Highness Eldest Prince, if Halutz abdicates himself. The Sifah family has a legal status."

"But" he looked at Freya and Delphine, and then the words turned: "Neither of us is suitable."

Freya hasn't reacted to this shocking news, only Delphine asked puzzledly: "Why? Isn't this a great opportunity for us? Adults, if you want to save Aouine, you must first have It. And as long as Lord Count becomes the master of Aouine's, you can use its power and help us to rescue Romaine Young Lady. Isn't it?

Brando glanced at her, his eyes seemed to look directly at the heart, but he shook his head, didn't talk, just opened the second letter Eldest Prince sent to him. To his surprise, this letter turned out to be in duplicate, one of which was sent to him by Kiara Princess. Although he has always been prejudiced against the northern noble, he has always had a good impression on the Little Princess. After all, how to say, although Kiara Princess is a bit willful, but it can save his life.

Unless he gave no promise at all, she gave him the heart of Sifah, which is very important to the Sifah royal family. He could not ignore this affection alone.

But Kiara Princess's letter didn't mention anything about the heart of Sifah, just gossiping with him about a bunch of interesting things she has encountered these days, and then told him that she could come to live in the last section of Fir Tree Shire Coincidentally, as a Magic apprentice, her teacher Correct Amandina, which was recommended by Eccentric Garlock.

Of course, this is not a coincidence in the opinion of Brando. It must be the arrangement of His Highness Eldest Prince. He shook his head and couldn't figure out what the Eldest Prince was planning.

Then he started reading the second letter. When he opened the letter sent to him by Eldest Prince, Brando could not help but slightly raise eyebrow, which seemed very unexpected.

Eldest Prince talked with him about the situation of the Aouine North. Generally speaking, it was not too bad, but not too good. Since the disaster of the month, a large number of Kirrlutz refugees have flooded into the north of Aouine through Anzeluta. Due to the abnormal weather after the tide of Mana, the northern crops of Aouine failed, which led to a large-scale famine.

On the one hand, although noble in the North stood under the Corcova royal family in War of Black Rose under his constraints, but with the end of the war and famine, the northern nobles began to be less obedient than before the war. Greymount and Balta noble and even already in some places threatened to retake Ampere Searl, so that they could spend this unbearably harsh winter with the wealth of Ampere Searl.

Eldest Prince also mentioned in the letter, asking him and Her Highness the Princess to beware of royalist, because according to the information returned by his men, some of royalist may be in contact with northern noble.

While Eldest Prince will remind him and Her Highness the Princess in turn, this surprised Brando, but what really surprised him was not this, but Eldest Prince's last paragraph in this letter:

‘... Mr Count, thank you for fighting for the fate of Aouine's. You and I know what the fate of this kingdom is. The dispute between the Sifah and the Corcova royal family has lasted for 100 years, and now it seems to be the last moment.

It is like a carriage driving towards the abyss. I and you in the south each hold a carriage. For a long time, we have carefully restrained this carriage so that it will not fall into a state of extinction.

But today, when the two families decide the victory, the North and the South will run completely opposite. His Highness Little Prince is kind, but he has not seen the blood and fire that the kingdom will face in the future. I believe you must understand this. Aouine does not need you and me, but a person who can carry the past grievances and history of the two families. King

And this lady is right next to you. I believe you have a bright eye and you must already know her name.

Your dear friend, Levine.Orneson.Sifah ’

Brando held this page of stationery in a daze for a while.

His heart is like a stormy sea. For the first time the heir of the Sifah family has admiration for the first time. Perhaps in history, if he, instead of Queen Anna, entered the stage of history, Aouine's history may be another One look.
