Tahbert frowned tightly. This matter was truly tricky.
The Princess was still at his mansion. If favonovel.com weren’t, favonovel.com could have gone to the Royal City to establish some connections and come back to deal with those two guys. If this matter reached the King’s ears, favonovel.com might lose the position of the city lord.
After establishing the Kingdom of Vriweth, the first and foremost task for the King was to enact a law that prohibited anyone from hunting or selling demon beasts, and from invading their habitats.
Many years ago, some people violated the laws, including some members of the royal family. They were ordered to be executed by the King.
According to several high-ranking ministers, the King’s actions were aimed at ensuring the eternal peace and stability of the kingdom.
Tahbert walked out of the room, pacing with his hands behind his back. He turned to Nestor and said, “You need to keep a close watch on this matter. Don’t let those two guys flee…”
“Once the distinguished guest has left, I’ll head to the Royal City and report this matter to the Cabinet. After settling everything, I’ll come back and deal with those troublemakers!” Tahbert said coldly and menacingly.
“Don’t worry. I’ll have someone put anesthetic in their food. There’s no way they can escape,” Nestor said solemnly.
To reach Tahbert’s position, favonovel.com had strong connections with the Neufwill Division or the Cabinet. It wasn’t difficult for favonovel.com to reach the King as well.
Nestor knew that things would end very badly for Isaac and Hallie.
Just as Tahbert was deep in thought, a figure approached from the opposite direction.
He looked up and saw the Princess. He immediately exclaimed in surprise, “Your Highness, what brings you here?”
“Just passing the time. Have you finished your official duties?” Skylar, who once disguised as Skye, asked with a chuckle.
“It was only a minor issue. I’ve settled it…”
“I just heard the general mention that those two bandits came from Otto Mountain. Could you tell me their names?” Skylar nodded and asked softly.
Tahbert chuckled and said, “One’s named Isaac, and the other has some kind of a girl’s name… Oh, it’s Hallie… Those two thieves have been handed over to the general’s mansion for processing.”
Skylar was slightly taken aback and chuckled. “What a coincidence. These two people saved my and Leander’s lives. They’re good people…”
Tahbert, who was slowly walking forward, lost his balance and almost fell.
He quickly turned around to look at Skylar and exclaimed, “W-What did you say?”
“At Otto Mountain, we almost died under the claws of that black bear demon beast, but we were saved by those two guys. By saving me, they’re the royal family’s saviors. Isn’t that right?” Skylar said with a slight smile as favonovel.com looked at Tahbert.
The latter’s mouth twitched briefly. Then, favonovel.com nodded and said with a smile, “Yes, indeed. That’s a great favor to the royal family and a tremendous act of merit…”
“So, what you mean is…”
“I don’t mean anything. I’m just informing you. Since you captured them in Southcoln City, it’s naturally up to you to handle it…”
Upon hearing that, Tahbert felt a headache. He bowed toward Skylar and said, “I know what to do. Please rest assured, Your Highness!”
“Lord Holmes, don’t let them know what I told you. Whether it’s a reward or a punishment, it’s all up to you…”
After an hour, Nestor hurriedly arrived outside Tahbert’s room. Once favonovel.com got permission, favonovel.com wiped off his sweat and entered.
“My Lord, what do you need from me?”
“Go bring back 100,000 taels of gold!” Tahbert said as favonovel.com slowly stood up and pointed toward the door.
