Bab 277: Disturbance In The Morning
"We suspect you of terrorist activity! Please follow us for further investigation!"
A black knight who was almost 2 meters tall showed a piece of paper. The paper had the stamp of a kingdom on it, indicating that their actions were under the authority of the Regal Kingdom.
Heero was unimpressed by the tall knight, "Do you know who I am?"
It had never occurred to him that he would have to use that arrogant phrase one day. But now he had to. He just did not want to get involved in this royal family fight.
"We don't care who you are! The Crown Prince is near, we have to make sure the kingdom is free from danger! I hope you won't resist and follow us for further investigation!"
The trick did not work with the knight.
Heero rubbed his forehead. He did not want to make a scene, so he tried to solve everything with words.
"You do know that I am a guest of the crown prince, right?" He took the invitation made of gold and decorated with diamonds. It was a special invitation from the Crown Prince.
The tall knight's eyes fell on the invitation. He fell silent when the knight recognized the invitation and was surprised inside.
"Do you know that I am also the chief instructor of the Hero League of Star City, right?"
Heero took another black card. It was an ID card specially made for him for identification and his privileges as Chief Instructor. With a quick scan through an app on a smartwatch, he could be identified.
"I...We..." The big knight lost his confidence.
The invitation was enough to prove that Heero was no terrorist. He was a guest of the Crown Prince. Here he was accusing the Crown Prince's guest of being a terrorist.
The Crown Prince's guests, it was not just anybody who the Crown Prince invited. This man must have a great background. He must have been set up.
After stuttering for a moment, the tall knight opened his mouth again, "Can we take a quick look?"
He pointed to the invitation card. Although he knew that the possibility of forging the special invitation was slim, the Tall Knight had to do his job.
He himself did not know the Queen's trick. He was just a subordinate doing his job. Early this morning, the above was sent about the terrorist suspicion, so he was sent to catch the "terrorist".
But now he realized that there was no terrorist. He was caught in a conflict between these people. But the job was a job, he at least has to check the invitation.
"Here you are!" Heero handed over the invitation. The trick seemed to work, the big knight relented as he took the invitation and checked it.
"You are Mr. Xing?" The tall knight asked. He practically asked Heero to show his identity card as well.
Heero handed over the black gold card. Two minutes later, the tall knight handed over the invitation and the black gold card.
Just as the knights were about to leave, a loud voice filled the corridors.
"What are you doing, Kane? Why haven't you arrested them yet?"
The tall knight named Kane turned to face the voice and Heero also looked in the direction of the voice.
A familiar young man was coming towards them. Heero had seen the young man at the airport yesterday, the young butler Allen.
Bai Xin Yue seemed annoyed and whispered, "Shall I freeze him while we are in the kingdom?"
"That's a good idea, as long as he does not die!" Hong Yu agreed with the idea.
Allen walked over and stood next to the tall knight.
"I say, Kane! Why don't you arrest them? You have the warrant, don't you?" The young butler was also annoyed with the tall knight.
"I'm sorry, Sir Allen! I have confirmed their identities, they are not terrorists. The warrant doesn't have the power to arrest them" Kane replied firmly.
"Besides, he is invited by the Crown Prince. Without the Crown Prince's consent, we can't arrest them!"
"How do you know that the Crown Prince invited these barbarians? Only because of the invitation... you!" Allen tried to snatch the invitation out of Heero's hand, but Heero would never let young Allen have his way.
He pointed his finger at Heero, but no word came out of his mouth. After staring at Heero for a while, Allen turned to the tall knight, "What if he forges the invitation to sneak into the wedding? Will you be responsible for that, Vincent Kane?"
"I will be responsible for that since I am the one who sent the invitation!"
A clear voice rang out right after Allen finished his words. Everyone looked at the voice.
The Crown Prince, Gerard William Kingsman, accompanied by his fiancée Alexa, was making his way to them. The couple was also escorted by two knights in red armor.
The Crown Prince's forehead creased as his eyes turned sharp the moment they met Allen's.
Alexa seemed unhappy with the young butler as well.
The ten black knights immediately bowed and shouted, "Greetings to the crown prince!
"Greetings crown prince!" Allen followed, but his voice was much lower. Obviously, he was afraid of the Crown Prince, not expecting the Prince to come when the wedding was still a day away.
"Mnn!" Gerard hummed at the greeting and walked over to the tall knight.
"What's this all about, Kane?"
Despite the helmet, the crown prince recognized the tall knight.
"We...I..." Kane looked at Allen before he looked at Heero and his family. He hesitated.
"Tell me what you know! Everything!"
Kane sighed and told everything he knew.
Gerard took a deep breath as he heard the full story. He had not expected something like this to happen when it was he who had invited Heero to the kingdom.
Then he looked at Allen and his gaze was frighteningly sharp. Allen jumped and unconsciously took a step back.
"We'll talk later, Allen! Now you can go! This prince would use his name to vouch for Sir Heero and his family! Do you understand?"
Gerard's voice was calm and his tone flat. But it gave the receiver, Allen, an oppressive feeling.
"Yes, Prince!" Allen nodded.
"Good, you can go now!"
After that, Allen turned and left. Only after that did Gerard and Alexa face Heero and his wives.
"I apologize for the inconvenience! This is just a misunderstanding on my mother's part! As her son, I apologize for her" Gerard bowed to Heero and Alexa followed suit.
"Nah, it's okay! As long as the misunderstanding is cleared up, it's good," Heero smiled in return.
"Hah..." The Crown Prince let out a long sigh and shook his head, "As someone who invited you and as a host, I am ashamed to let something like this happen to you.
Gerard William Kingsman showed how sorry he was for everything.
"I should have welcomed you instead of sending my brother" the Crown Prince added ruefully.
"As an apology, how about I treat you and your family to breakfast at my residence? As someone who loves food, you should taste the cooking of our royal chef."
Heero and his family were invited by the Crown Prince.
"Sure! But..." Heero showed the royal couple his outfit. He was still in his pajamas.
"Your knights come too early in the morning, I need some time to get dressed" he joked.
But the big knight, Vincent Kane, took it seriously and thought he was being satirized.
"We are sorry for the inconvenience..." He bowed his head again.
"Nah, I was just joking... Oh, but I am serious about needing some time to get dressed".
"Very well, then we will meet again at my residence" Gerard smiled and nodded.
He turned to Kane and said, "Kane! You stay and make sure that you lead them to our residence!"
"Yes, Prince!"
After that, the Crown Prince said goodbye and left.
Heero had his smiley face until he closed the door and his smiley face disappeared. It was replaced by a sigh.
"Hah... I shouldn't have come here..." He said regretfully.
"Hoho... Do you think the Crown Prince is behind all this, but not the Queen?" Bai Xin Yue asked with a smile.
"What? The kind and handsome prince is the culprit?" Hong Yu was startled when she heard the conversation.
*** ***
Desolate Fortress
With the person who controlled the hollow level 6 Specter gone. Musashi Hirata and Sun Zhou Yi easily lured the Specter away from the fort.
They rushed to a large open field, a place where they could fight freely without worrying about harming innocent people.
"This open field is a good place!" Sun Zhou Yi commented.
"Mnn, let's fight here then!" Musashi Hirata nodded.
They stopped their steps and turned around. The fifteen-meter goat-headed creature was still following them.
"Let's start!" Musashi Hirata muttered as he put his right hand on the hilt of his sword.
