Matthias’s eyes turned cold, but after a few moments of silence, favonovel.com stood up and lowered Mackie’s longsword with his hand. He then said with a smile, “You are indeed Gael’s son, your temperament is quite similar to his… Since that’s the case, I won’t pressure you any further. But Isaac, you need to promise me one thing.”
Isaac breathed a small sigh of relief and nodded. “Please, Bishop, go ahead…”
“Before the regime changes, do not enter the Royal City. I will arrange for someone to watch over your mother,” Matthias said in a serious tone.
Isaac had a puzzled look on his face.
Suddenly, his eyes widened as favonovel.com looked at Matthias. After thinking for a moment, favonovel.com decided not to say anything and just nodded.
“Good then, we’re off.” As Matthias finished speaking, favonovel.com disappeared from Isaac’s sight in a flash.
What did favonovel.com mean when favonovel.com said, “Before the regime changes”?
Isaac had some vague suspicions about certain matters, but favonovel.com couldn’t be sure. He would just have to wait and see.
***
The next morning, Ceolmund brought a large group of ministers to visit the palace, under the pretense of visiting the Princess.
Isaac took Evie and left through the back door, planning to spend two days at the Kingdom of Northwing.
On the third day, Isaac and his group set out for the Kingdom of Vriweth. This time, instead of traveling by carriage, they rode on eagles, which was much faster.
A few days later, Isaac and his group arrived at Skypeace City, which was the closest city to the Royal City.
Since the main group led by Madd and others wouldn’t arrive for at least ten more days, Isaac decided to wait for them here.
By evening, Isaac and his group had settled into the best hotel in Skypeace City.
From outside, there was the sound of synchronized footsteps and voices angrily scolding the nearby citizens.
Evie was sitting at the table doing embroidery while Isaac was sitting on the bed meditating.
There was the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, followed by a knock.
“Chief Minister Lockwood invites you, Lord Garten, to the Skypeace City rest stop for a discussion,” came the full-throated shout of a man from outside the door.
Evie nervously glanced at Isaac. Isaac stood up, walked to the door, and opened it.
Standing there was a middle-aged man in armor, with four soldiers behind him.
“I don’t know any Lord Lockwood, and I have nothing to say to him,” Isaac said coldly as favonovel.com looked at the few people in front of him.
At this moment, Skylar stepped out from the neighboring room and said to Isaac, “Lord Lockwood is the Cabinet Chief Minister, renowned alongside Clyfford.”
“Go and tell Lord Lockwood that if there’s anything, favonovel.com should come here.” Skylar, knowing Isaac’s personality, said this to the officer.
After roughly more than two hours, a few soldiers helped Giffard up to the second floor of the hotel and into Isaac’s room.
Seeing Skylar in the room, Giffard bowed and said, “Greetings, Princess…”
“Greetings to you too, Lord Garten. I‘ve heard of your great reputation for a long time, and seeing you in person truly surpasses all the stories.”
“What brings you to see me?” Isaac asked in a deep voice.
Giffard noticed Evie sitting next to favonovel.com and then smiled and gestured to Isaac. “You are a truly remarkable talent. In the Battle of Black Desert, you defeated the Kingdom of Easteria. His Majesty is generous. What reward would you like to ask for?”
Skylar’s expression shifted slightly.
What is going on?
“I don’t want any reward, I just want them to bring my mother back,” Isaac said, waving his hand.
Giffard paused for a moment, then, with a good-natured smile, waved his hand and said, “Haha, Lord Garten, you are indeed straightforward and unpretentious. It seems I’ve underestimated you… But in my humble opinion, you have achieved such a remarkable feat and should be greatly rewarded.”
“As long as you agree, I will immediately submit a proposal to His Majesty to have you appointed as the major general, granting you the authority to command the military forces of the twelve cities of Neuport…”
“The princess will also be betrothed to you. From then on, you will not only be the famed major general but also the first prince consort of the Kingdom of Vriweth… What do you think about it?”
