Wayne received new letters in the anonymous mailbox opened at the Lownes Union Post Office.
This is the only contact method he has left to the outside world as Ecos.
The big boss behind the Union Post Office is a big businessman who has a good relationship with the Winche family. Moreover, this old friend left Lowes many years ago to travel around and has little involvement with other forces in the country. Wayne is not worried. These routine employees reveal their secrets.
Of course, the most important thing is that almost no one can find out when the thing he wants to take is missing.
Seeing Bulwer's very "restrained" letter, Wayne suddenly felt like he had eaten a fly.
Serving in the City+Guard Corps did provide him with a lot of conveniences, but the side effects were too challenging to human limits, right?
Didn't Norman Laird tell him that he was actually a man?
Wayne's expression changed, and magic power suddenly emerged from his hand, disintegrating the letter into gray smoke.
…
"Lord Ax!"
When Echos walked into the training camp of the City Guards, the soldiers around him all greeted him loudly and respectfully.
Although the cape's too-large hood obscured his eyes, it didn't seem to have any effect on him. He nodded coldly and walked toward the interior of the camp without looking back.
Only after Echos's back disappeared did the guards on duty dare to hold their breath.
"How can there be such a beautiful woman in the world..." someone murmured and sighed.
"How dare you!" Another guard next to him glared angrily at the man, "How dare you speak rudely to Lord Echos!"
"This... I, I'm just talking, no disrespect intended." The man who had just made a blunder looked embarrassed.
This dispute did not expand further. The small episode at the entrance of the camp soon passed, and everyone began to discuss why Echos appeared today.
Ever since Echos joined the City Guard, her reputation has gradually become known to more people, and she has unknowingly attracted a large number of followers.
A strong man who stands on his own side can always bring a high sense of security to many ordinary people.
But for those involved, this longing may not be a pleasant thing.
"Miss Echos!"
Bulwer, who was sitting at the top of the room, saw Echos' figure, his eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up and walked to the door to greet her.
"I wonder if my presumptuous invitation will disturb Miss Echos' original itinerary..."
Wayne said coldly: "Of course I'm bothering you."
Bulwer's expression froze.
In fact, he just said this out of polite greeting.
"So, tell me if you have anything to say." Ecos didn't seem to notice the tense atmosphere at all, "I have other things to do later."
"Also, I'm not a young lady - I'm actually a man."
Wayne said bluntly.
Since someone already knew this, it was only a matter of time before the news spread.
Upon hearing these words, Bulwer's movements suddenly paused.
"...Ah hahaha, Mr. Ecos, you really know how to joke." After a moment, he said helplessly.
Unexpectedly, Ecos would rather claim to be a man than accept his love... Such a cruel blow is really heartbreaking.
I think so.
From the perspective of her partner, she must prefer Prince Richard, who will inherit the entire country in the future, to herself who is like a wild dog.
Otherwise, she would not have seen the letter concerning Richard's safety, and would have rushed to meet him without caring about other busy matters.
Clearly realizing this, Bulwer was inevitably disappointed.
"I'm not kidding, I'm really a man." The invisible character "well" gradually appeared on Wayne's forehead.
"Okay, okay... I understand what you mean. From now on, I will treat you as a man." Bulwer's forced smile was uglier than crying.
Giao!
Wayne is a bit confused.
"So, what is the emergency about Prince Richard?" he asked, "You didn't write clearly before, are you still planning to hide it now?"
In the message Bulwer passed to him, Wayne decided to come and show up after seeing this.
I once suggested to Richard that he create an opportunity for conflict with the outside world, prompting Lawrence to take the initiative to stand on his side and speak for him... In this way, perhaps it can bring a new relationship to the relationship between the two brothers. The change.
After all, people will always remember the people they have helped more deeply, but rarely remember who has helped them.
That’s not a put-down, it’s human nature.
But Richard said that he had a ready opportunity to take advantage of and asked himself to wait for news from him.
After giving indirect reminders once or twice, I found that Richard still hadn't started to take action. It was not easy for Wayne to always urge him, but he was indeed a little worried.
Because of this, although he didn't really want to meet Bulwer, he still came after reading the full text of the letter.
"cough……"
Bulwer looked at the door and lowered his voice and said: "Prince Richard and His Majesty the King had a conflict. His Majesty the King secretly ordered me to mobilize a special operations team to monitor Prince Richard's whereabouts."
In simple words, he revealed a secret that would shock everyone in the kingdom.
Wayne couldn't help but shrink his pupils when he heard this.
"When did this happen?"
Richard has been in the academy as usual recently, and there is no sign of anything unexpected happening to him.
"Just yesterday morning."
Bulwer sat down on a chair nearby and softly recounted the scene where the king suddenly summoned him.
"It was still dark at that time, and the palace attendants came to my house and took me to a villa in the suburbs... There, His Majesty the King personally received me and issued this top-secret order."
The king summoned his confidants and ordered them to secretly monitor the crown prince, which is not a good signal no matter how you look at it.
And the "confidant" Bulwer, who received this order, was even more uneasy about it.
"Why did you tell me this?" Aikesi's deep voice was difficult to distinguish between emotion and anger.
"Oh, although I have served His Majesty for many years, after all, I am not the family dog he raised..." At this point, Bulwer's voice was a little confused.
"If Prince Richard's coronation can bring a better life to the people... I can just turn around and join the other side, so why not?"
The well-soundproofed room fell silent for a moment.
After a long time, Echos spoke again——
"What do you want, do you want him to bring a better life to the people, or to bring a better life to yourself?"
