Chapter 78 The audience

In the evening, Crodia and his group finally arrived at their destination.

In the sunset, the half-fortress and half-castle building located on the cliff in front of the mountain looks very spectacular. We slowly move along the path on the cliff. Although there are some old city gates, there are quite new traces on it. It must have been repaired many times. You can walk fifteen or sixteen miles from this gate to Kando, the capital of Irve.

When you walked into the door, you saw a small market town. The most conspicuous building was this castle. As you followed the man who claimed to be a teacher from the Royal United Academy of Fili, some people in military uniforms came out to greet you. When you walked into the castle, although the decoration was not gorgeous, it was still quite grand. You walked past the conference hall with several floor-to-ceiling windows, there were several rooms for others to use.

"Please rest here these days. If you have any questions to discuss, we will notify you to go to the conference hall I just saw. Tomorrow I will take you to meet His Majesty the King." Feili briefly introduced, and the group dispersed and there was nothing to say that night.

The next morning, the teachers rushed outside the palace as early as possible and waited for the king to summon him.

For Crodia, who has been traveling around all year round, he has experienced the visits to the king several times, and the Kingdom of Irvi has also been to the first time he did not visit as a priest, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Relax, Brother Cro, although it is a small country, it is also an honor to see the king. Why do you have a bitter face?" A pale, thin man bearded beside him rubbed his hands and whispered to him. Crodia subconsciously moved elsewhere. He still remembered another teacher who was traveling with him that told him to be careful of the person in front of him.

This person's name is Locke, and he is a teacher at the infamous Qianying Academy. Speaking of which, although the school ranks quite high and is not much different from other schools on the surface, many people in private know that the people in this school are almost always ruthless roles from principals to students to achieve their goals, and there are even rumors that they are secretly conducting human experiments, so at least most people don't want to be related to this school.

So no one present wanted to be very close to Locke, but Locke talked to Crodia as if he hadn't noticed this deliberately alienating atmosphere.

Crodia said seriously: "I'm not nervous, please don't get it wrong."

Lock was still in a loose state, but his two black eyes glanced everywhere, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking: "Ah, that's right, it's just a routine, right, Lord Priest?"

Crodia ignored him anymore, and the king and the others went in, and the topic stopped.

The guards in front of the door opened the door for the group. The gorgeous red stalls still covered the floor of the hall. The king and the imperial concubine sat upright on the throne slightly raised by several steps. The adult eldest son, the ministers and nobles, stood below. There were many soldiers around the hall, in order to protect the king's safety, all their eyes fell on them.

The king was old, and he looked even older with his frown. Although the queen's hair was not white, her skin was obviously loose, and the few wrinkles on her forehead made people wonder how wrinkles they were.

After a simple greeting, there were some polite words, so the topic of discussion in the court gradually shifted from this siege to a war with the demons, and the whole court quarreled in an instant.

"Your Majesty, I still stick to my opinion! War will only cause the people to suffer! You have to consider it for the people!" Someone shouted loudly among them.

"It's simply nonsense! You know how to use the people as a shield!" Huiyao's father, Duke Silava, stood beside Crodia at some point.

After a simple and kind word, Silava briefly told Crodia what happened recently.

Over the past few months, Irvey and the surrounding kingdoms have been threatened countless times by demons hiding in the nearby mountains, and have given some seemingly fair conditions and requirements to be transferred out of the country. This is naturally unacceptable. Therefore, various assassinations and attacks on various villages and towns have occurred no less than a hundred times.

So the court officials and nobles were divided into two factions. One faction advocated that they could not give in any way, and the other insisted on agreeing to the other party's conditions. Although the king could not make a decision for a long time, it seemed that he had the intention to make a decision privately based on the results of this joint siege of the academy.

Later, because the king insisted on asking the teachers to live in the palace for a while, Crodia, who returned to the arranged room, stood by the window thinking about what he heard in the Baitc Hall, and couldn't help but worry about the students. In fact, he was worried that Huiyao and Feiyue were a little more. After all, they were old friends' children, and they also agreed to help take care of them.

Just as Crodia was thinking about being in a daze, she suddenly heard a rapid flapping of her wings. She saw a dove flying out of nowhere. Although it was only a moment, Crodia still saw something on the dove's feet.
