"Mother, this is all the fault of those two guys! If they weren't incompetent and were stopped by others, this result would never have happened! And it was an enemy who didn't show up? Isn't that funny!"
Tristan the Goblin laughed contentedly.
"In comparison, I found the Child of Prophecy herself and fought against her. It was just that there were too many people on the other side and we broke through our blockade. I was not wrong at all!"
Although the truth is mostly what she said, her statement is also annoying.
If it were Jiang Li, he would have wanted to beat her now.
At that time, we didn't break through your blockade at all. You didn't block it at all. Seeing that this side was stronger, you asked the soldiers to delay and ran away without a trace!
"This subordinate is incompetent, please punish me!"
Bagster knelt heavily on the ground, ashamed.
Failure to complete the queen's mission was her fault, and it had nothing to do with whether the enemy was strong or not. She felt from the bottom of her heart that she should accept punishment.
"Hmph, after becoming a Fairy Knight, aren't you getting carried away, Bagster?"
Woodworth licked Hanguang's sharp wolf claws, and raised the corners of his narrow mouth with a mocking smile.
"Not only did the Son of Prophecy fail to be caught, but the Boggart that was caught was also let go. Are you really becoming more and more useless? Or is it the pretty-faced princess next to you who is holding you back?"
Jiang Li raised his eyebrows.
"Puppy, don't fart randomly."
"What did you say!"
Woodworth's eyes bulged, his eyes filled with anger, and he roared in a low voice.
"This is the queen's palace, not your toilet."
Jiang Li snorted coldly and said with a sarcastic expression.
"...!"
Woodworth's complexion changed, and his expression changed several times.
He tried hard to suppress the outburst of anger, and the anger on his face slowly subsided.
"The level of speaking skills is too different..."
Spriggan stood in the corner like a transparent person, looking at Woodworth with eyes full of pity.
Although the goblins of Tooth are powerful, they are generally simple-minded and cannot defeat experts in conspiracy.
Although this was the first time we met this princess, she seemed to be a wily and scheming fellow. She was able to make Woodworth lose his temper in just a few words!
In addition, it is said that he is also very strong and seems to have no weaknesses. I am afraid he is a very difficult guy. It is best not to provoke him if you can.
"Your Majesty, shortly after leaving Camelot, your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Princess encountered an assassination attempt by an unknown force on Your Highness. We separated soon after and did not meet each other in Sheffield. Our failure to capture the Son of Prophecy was entirely due to The fault of my subordinates has nothing to do with His Highness.”
Bagster lowered his head and defended Jiang Li in a serious tone.
Jiang Li rolled his eyes.
Sister, can you stop being so rigid?
When someone provokes you, do you actually explain it in a straight-forward manner?
Wouldn't that make sense if I didn't curse on the spot and say, "Your mother is dead?"
"Assassination?"
The queen suddenly spoke up.
"Have you investigated clearly what force it is?"
Woodworth was stunned for a moment.
Then he gritted his teeth and stared at Jiang Li with jealousy on his face.
Why are you staring at me?
Jiang Li glared at him and then looked at the Queen.
"I have also been to some places, but there are no clues. I think they are some kind of shady force, but they are pitifully weak, so there is no need to care."
The queen nodded slowly, indicating that she knew.
"But you guys came back from the outside together again. You are really close. Is it possible that you two are having an affair?"
Woodworth's face was filled with viciousness and a sinister tone.
Damn it, you are not done yet!
Jiang Li suddenly became angry and stomped on the ground, vowing to give him a look!
"That's enough of you, Woodworth!"
At this time, Bagster suddenly raised his head and shouted with an angry look on his face.
"I respect your Ya clan leader, so I endure it again and again! Don't push yourself too far and spit on others! You are not only slandering me, but also insulting Mr. Jiang Li! He is undoubtedly an upright swordsman, and he has the status of a princess. It’s impossible to do anything indiscreet!”
As if a good old lady was angry, she, who was originally quiet, suddenly burst into a roar like a tiger's roar, leaving Woodworth stunned for a moment.
Jiang Li looked away with some guilt.
So in Bagster’s heart, am I such a noble person?
What should I do if I feel a little ashamed?
The Queen glanced at him silently.
What are you looking at?
Jiang Li gave her a strange look.
The Queen silently looked away again.
I have no idea what she means.
"You greedy black dog, how dare you say such a thing?"
Woodworth came to his senses with a look of disgust on his face.
"Can you still not know your nature? You will prey on whatever you love. How much love have you eaten so far? Now you are pretending to be noble?"
"Speaking of which, Boggarts used to be very optimistic about you. Could it be that you fell in love with Boggarts, your appetite increased, and you missed the opportunity to fight, so you allowed the Child of Prophecy to escape?"
Bagster's expression tightened, and his eyes became more sinister.
"With all due respect, Lord Woodworth."
Spriggan stood up with a smile.
He looked like a shrewd businessman, but he intervened in the quarrel between several people.
"When you were in Tintagel Village, didn't you also let go of the person who was suspected of being the Son of Prophecy because you missed the opportunity to fight?"
Jiang Li pricked up his ears.
Is there such a thing?
If I remember correctly, it seems that Craster was born in the village of Tintagel?
"Spriggan, do you want to find trouble!"
Woodworth's face turned cold.
"That's enough, shut up."
But at this moment, a cold and emotionless scolding sound came.
"Where do you think this is?"
"I'm so sorry, Your Majesty!"
Bagster came to his senses and lowered his head in fear.
Spriggen also lowered his head.
"...I was rude."
Woodworth was silent for a moment and bowed slightly towards the Queen.
"I have no interest in mediating your relationship, but no matter what kind of conflicts there are, they are not allowed to break out here. Don't make me say this a second time."
The Queen glanced at the two of them as if she was bored.
"Bagster let go of the son of prophecy and Woodworth let go of the son of prophecy. I will punish them equally for any mistakes. The key now is where the son of prophecy is now, and the mysterious figure who appeared in Sheffield. Who is he?"
"On this point, my princess, what do you think?"
"Ah? Ask me?"
Jiang Li was stunned for a moment.
"I can't come?"
Didn’t I tell you that I’m not in Sheffield? What are you asking me for?
"Really?"
The queen looked at Jiang Li intently.
"How can it be false?"
Jiang Li vowed to do so.
He was panicking.
Damn it, what should I do?
Why does it feel like the Queen has seen through everything?
