Ghosts and Knights [Rebirth]

Chapter 8 Entering the palace to meet the king

"Master Lanza Adonis."

At around ten o'clock in the morning, no customers came to the weapon maintenance shop that opened for two hours because there was no publicity. It's no wonder that Lansa didn't even prepare a plaque.Of course, Lanza didn't care if there were any customers on the first day of opening. With his reputation, as long as people in Mona City knew that Lanza was back, there would definitely be many people visiting the store. He didn't believe that they would all come empty-handed.

In the store, Lansa found a place to nestle and read, Kabul was busy with tallying and displaying goods, even if no customers came to the door, he did it meticulously, and Cynthia was responsible for taking care of Lansa, serving tea and water, etc. Cynthia was in charge, and finally welcomed the first outsider who stepped into the shop.

"Your Excellency Barry, I was thinking that it was time for you to come." Lansa looked up and looked at the person coming without any surprise.

Barry is the captain of the king's personal guard and an excellent knight, trusted by the king.Pei should have already arrived at the Knights, and the news that he was safe and sound should have spread, how could the king not summon him?

Barry bowed slightly, without saying anything, quietly waiting for Lanza to leave with him.

"Kabul, you and Cynthia stay in the store. If Pei comes, tell me I'll be right back." Lansa stood up, straightened the black magic robe with red thread embroidery, and walked towards the door.

"Master, please take Cynthia with you." Although the main body is a hell butterfly, Cynthia is not without fighting power, and at critical moments, Cynthia can pass messages between them.

"unnecessary."

"Then please be careful, master." Kabul and Cynthia would never object to Lansa's decision, so they respectfully watched Lansa go out.

Barry's eyes turned between Lansa, Kabul, and Cynthia, and he was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask anything.

"Master Adonis, the carriage is just outside the door, please." Barry turned sideways and made a gesture of please.

"En." Lansa nodded, and got on the carriage gracefully.

After the carriage door closed, Barry stared at the door and frowned slightly.When will there be another woman in Lanza Adonis' family?What's the matter with calling him master?How come I never heard of it?Shaking his head, Barry jumped into the driver's seat and drove the car forward.

"Master Adonis, Your Majesty is waiting for you inside." After leading Lansa to the door of His Majesty's study, Barry stopped.

"Well, thank you, Lord Barry." Lanza nodded at Barry with a smile, and pushed open the door of the study.

Barry bowed and saluted, then turned around and stood guard outside the study door.

"Lanza Adonis sees His Majesty the King. Good day, Your Majesty." Walking ten steps away from His Majesty, Lanza knelt on one knee and saluted in a standard manner.

"Excuse me, let's get up." His majesty's voice was solemn and steady, making it difficult to judge his emotions from his majestic voice.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lansa got up, and then greeted several other people in the study, "Good day, Your Highness, the four princes." There are too many people, please allow him to be brief.

"Lansa, since you're back safely, why don't you go to the palace to report to the father? The father is so worried that he can't sleep or eat." The 36-year-old eldest prince Argus' tone was slightly reproachful, but it implied concern .

"Your Majesty bothered, but was delayed by some trivial matters." Lansa lowered his head slightly, looking very submissive, but in fact he was very disgusted with this tentative greeting.

"It's good that I can come back safely. Pei has always been worried. No matter how much he comforts him, he can't calm down. Now it's all over. Pei is so happy." The 16-year-old fourth prince, Ahab, looked at Lansa with a hearty smile.

"Thank you, Your Highness, Fourth Prince." Lansa raised his eyes and laughed with Ahab.Thanks for what?Naturally, he was grateful for his comfort and concern for Pei. This kid has been clinging to Pei since he was a child. If Pei got a little troubled, he would follow suit. He has long been an eyesore to him.

"No, you're welcome." Ahab's smile froze, and he looked away in embarrassment.

"The prince really wants to know, what kind of trifles can hold you back for a month?" Hall curled his lips into an evil smile, raised his eyes, and looked at Lansa with meaningful eyes.

"Personal issues." Lanza turned her head to look at Hall with equally meaningful eyes, and the complex content contained in the eyes made Hall unable to understand even a little bit.

No matter how lenient the royal family is, it can't control the private questions of the nobles, so Lansa's answer can neither satisfy the curiosity of several royal families, nor make them unable to ask further questions.

"Just come back safely. Have you been to your parents' cemetery?" His Majesty the King's face was expressionless, and his voice was still full of majesty, but it was just what it seemed. Very curious, but even as a king, it is still inconvenient to ask some questions, who let him play the role of a steady and indifferent king.

"Not yet." Lan Su paused before answering the question from His Majesty the King.

"Well, go check it out and let them know you're all right."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"As the last heir of the Adonis family, you will inherit the title of the earl of the Adonis family. The earl's mansion and fiefdom will be handed over to you, and you can dispose of them as you like."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Well, if you need help with anything, just tell Argus."

"Yes, if you encounter any trouble, just come to me directly." Argus smiled at Lansa friendly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Your Royal Highness." If there is any trouble that he can't solve now, no one in Mona City can solve it.

"Well, let's all back down."

"My son retire."

"It's fate. So many people died in the Earl of Adonis' mansion. Why did you run away alone? Where did you escape from? Why didn't those robbers chase you? Ah, it seems that even You were not mentioned in the confession, Lansa, tell me, why is that?" As soon as he left the study, Hall tilted his body and leaned on Lanza, saying in a strange way.

"Yeah, why does His Highness Hall think this is?" Lansa turned her head, looked at Hall with a smile, her voice was deliberately lowered, like a whisper between lovers.

Hall froze for a moment, then blushed suddenly.what happened?It's not that he hasn't seen Lansa's smiling face, why is he blushing suddenly and his heart beating?

But in the next second, Hall's side was hit hard, and the sudden pain forced him to withdraw his hand and push away from Lanza.

"Sorry, my hands are slippery." Lansa straightened her clothes, tilted her head and smiled at Hall, "If someone gets too close, she will shoot out reflexively. Please forgive me, Your Highness Hall."
