Chapter 192: Ronan Is Looking For Arielle

"Why should it be the Cathedral?" William asked Lazarus. "Why not just say that Princess Arielle has gone outside the palace?"

Lazarus shook his head solemnly and wagged his index finger in William's face. "No, my friend. We have to do this as convincingly as possible. Priest Elis could lie and the man's holy image will further strengthen our alibi. If Priest Elis said he saw Princess Arielle go out of the palace, then it's very likely that Ronan would believe it."

William nodded in understanding. So did Arielle. Now it was Lucas who raised his hand to interrupt their conversation.

"But I dare not take Princess Arielle out of the palace without the permission of His Majesty the King. I'm afraid His Majesty would be angry with me."

Lazarus turned to Lucas, and then touched the man's shoulder to calm Lucas.

"Relax, you're not really out of the palace. I will protect you," said Lazarus confidently.
