My queen always makes my survival more difficult

"This..."

Joe seemed to know about this.

I have to ask.

"Do you care so much about my affairs? If you want to know, you can ask me, Noxiu~"

Chapter 284 Blackmail

"Uh..."

I was so embarrassed for a moment. When did this guy come back? He was clearly far away before, and suddenly he appeared here...

"What's wrong? Aren't you discussing my affairs? Are you not allowing me to participate?"

"Wrong, just pretend I didn't say anything. Although I am indeed curious, I know that if I get the answer from you, I will definitely... definitely die miserably... So, I don't want to know anymore."

"It's rare that someone wants to have a good chat with you about their own affairs."

I have no way of confirming whether what you said is true or false, so I don't plan to seek death. It doesn't matter if I don't know about this kind of thing, and there is really no need to know.

A poisonous rose is not a rose with thorns. If I know too much about it, it will not be good for me. It is better for people to keep the so-called secrets themselves. There is no need for me to rush into the gun... There is really no need.

"I was originally planning to tell you, but since you don't want to know it from me, there's no need to know it from anyone else, right?"

Wow...

This guy wants to completely put an end to my thoughts. Forget it, I don't plan to provoke Edith. It won't do me any good. If I provoke Edith, who knows what terrible things will happen. I'd better...

Let's stop here.

"I see"

"Hehe, it seems that you do know. Then you can continue chatting. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying this, Edith had a relaxed expression, and seemed very happy...

He just walked away like that. Joe and I stood there and watched him leave before I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why is this woman so scary? I wonder what kind of man can conquer a woman like this. Is this guy planning to never get married?"

"Hahaha, only women like this are worth conquering. However, forget about Edith. That person is not someone who can be conquered. Your Highness Noshu had better not have any strange ideas. You haven't seen how terrifying that woman is. She has only been in the fortress for such a short time, but she has already thoroughly understood everything about it and even proposed such a transformation plan. The Rom family was not originally a powerful family, but in her hands, it has become such a terrifying existence, even to the point of covering the sky with one hand. In the Kingdom of Edvira, apart from the royal family, I guess no one can stand up to Edith."

"No, even if it's the royal family, to be honest, if you want me to rely on Noelle to defeat Edith, I'd rather rely on myself. Noelle is not enough. If I want to face Edith, the current Noelle is not enough."

I'm telling the truth. If she wants to face Edith, the current Noelle is not enough, really not enough.

"You don't seem to have much confidence in Queen Norel. She's still your sister, right?"

"Just because she's my sister, I don't have any confidence in her, at least not yet. I don't know how far she'll go in the future. I can't see how far she can go now... But the future is uncertain. At least she's planning to become queen seriously, which is worth my anticipation, as long as nothing happens..."

As long as nothing happens... maybe it's okay.

Chapter 285 Unreasonable

After a full day, I returned to a place where I could rest.

For me, this is a very important matter. It is rare for me to leave the royal city and come out into the outside world, but I also know that I can't run around everywhere, so I chose to honestly return to my residence.

"Why did you come in? Get out!"

"I'm not interested in your skinny body. Please stop looking for trouble. I didn't see anything."

He touched his face and found a big stigma on it. As for why, it was all thanks to Miss Nadia who was going crazy all day long.

Even though I was dressed, because the buttons were not buttoned properly, the moment I opened the door and walked in, I was slapped...

If I wasn't exhausted after a whole day and didn't want to bother with this idiot, I would have wanted to fight back...

I don't mind hitting girls or anything like that, because patience has its limits, and my patience is being constantly tested by Nadia. This guy is only cute when he's injured and quiet, but usually he's a total annoyance to me.

It's really unbearable.

"What are you laughing at? I mean, this girl is your sister, right? Why don't you do anything about it?"

"After all, this is a place where girls live. Girls are all very concerned about their appearance. What if you pushed the door open and walked in without thinking? What if Nadia was changing her clothes at that time? Nadia would be at a disadvantage."

Now I'm the one who's suffering. I didn't see anything but still got slapped, and this after working hard all day.

Today, Qiao asked me to help carry some construction materials. It was fine at the beginning, but it started to happen halfway through. It turned out that I was still a little lacking in exercise, and Qiao laughed at me.

To carry those things, how to use strength to make it easy, how to avoid getting hurt, doing these things is no easier than practicing sword skills.

"I'm thinking, there won't be any more trouble in the fortress from now on."

"Nothing will happen in the short term, but the situation in Zebikla is not optimistic. Ulki must be determined to win, so he keeps attacking the Kingdom of Edvira. He is just waiting for reinforcements and supplies to arrive, and he will continue fighting soon. We cannot let our guard down."

I don't want to take it lightly, but what's happening now is hard to describe...

It's not what I wanted at all, and it's much more troublesome than I imagined.

"Edith, the fortress is almost finished. What exactly are you planning to do? I'm still very curious about your thoughts and intentions."

"I can't tell you now. Aren't you afraid that walls have ears? We still have to be on guard against things like this."

Maybe you haven't thought it through yet.

"I always feel that you are thinking of something very rude. If you think I am not prepared, you can think so. But before that, Nadia, give him another slap."

"Okay, onee-sama!"

As she said that, Nadia walked towards me with a sneer on her face.

When she got close to me, she actually raised her hand and slapped me, but I grabbed her hand.

"You guy, I wasn't paying attention just now, do you still want to hit me now?"

After saying that, she grabbed it with her other hand.

"Do you think I'm stupid?"

"Oh?"

Nadia suddenly jumped up, her body shrank in a strange way, and then she kicked me in the face. I quickly dodged.

"It's just a joke, don't take it so seriously!"

"Onee-sama's words! They are the truth!"

Chapter 286: Still Falling into the Trap

So, I can't talk to this guy anymore, damn...

After quickly dodging Nadia's attack, I threw her out. This guy's physical skills are very good, so I don't need to worry about anything happening. I can just throw her out and be done with it.

Sure enough, even after being thrown out by me, she landed safely on the ground and looked at me viciously.

I really hate that look...

"Okay, stop making trouble, just a little trouble will be enough."

"Yes, Onee-sama."

It turns out that she means listening to Edith. No matter what others say, she will never listen. What an annoying little girl.

"Noxiu, I'm going to trouble you for a while. You have to go with Nadia to investigate the enemy's situation. All my scouts have gone out now, and I don't have anyone left to gather intelligence, so you have to go with Nadia."

"I don't mind. If the war ends sooner, I can give it a try."

Try to run away. Although I want to say this, it's impossible. The chain is still around my neck. If I try to run, I will definitely die...

"What do you want to do?"

"Forget it. I don't want to do anything. I was just thinking about it casually, but...is it really okay? If anything happens, don't forget, this guy almost died last time. I was just lucky that time and I found her. If I hadn't found her, she would have died there. It's okay for me to go alone. Can you not take her with you?"

In fact, I just find it troublesome. This guy is too hostile to me and may stab me in the back at any time.

This guy would really do something like that, if she wanted to...

So I am really worried about this matter. It is safer for me to act alone. At least I can escape quickly if I can't beat them.

"No, you must take Nadia with you. Nadia also needs to draw a map of the enemy camp."

"We already tried to get in once last time, it won't be that easy again."

"That may not be the case. If you want, you can still touch it again. It just depends on whether you dare. So, do you dare or not, Nuo Xiu~"

You are deliberately provoking me, but I won't fall for it. If I fall for it, I would be a real fool. I don't want to do such a dangerous thing at all.

"The next battle is very important. It's not just about mapping the enemy camp, but also, if we have the chance, it would be best to find out what happened to the enemy. Maybe we can find the antidote in Ulki's hands."

My heart skipped a beat. Did this guy see through me and guess my weakness right away?

That’s right, most of the things I’m thinking about now are useless!

If possible, I hope I can find the so-called antidote. That way, my hope of saving Lenora will be greatly enhanced. Then...

But can things really go so smoothly?

I always feel that she is still trying to provoke me.

"If you don't want to, that's fine. I can just send Nadia. But Nadia has to draw a map, so she can't do many things. So, although it's a pity, I have to give up that idea, right~ Noxiu~"

"I'll go...Isn't it okay if I go..."

Damn it! I fell for the provocation!

Chapter 287 It’s Better to Fight

They said they were going out for reconnaissance, but in fact they had no plan or anything. Even if they went out with Nadia, they had only walked into the forest not far from the fortress.

"I say, do you have any plans? Even if we come out to investigate, we don't really have any plans, do we?"

"I will do my best to carry out my sister's orders. Just don't hold me back. If you do, I will definitely throw you away. I am different from you. I will never save you."

"You'd better protect yourself first..."

What she said was so heartless that it made me feel uncomfortable. However, I absolutely took her words as true. If anything happened, this guy would never come to save me. I believe this.

However, I still can't do without a plan. After all, I may not be walking with Nadia at that time, but will act according to my own ideas. In the end, it's not certain whether I can blend in. So, I still have to be careful...

If anything happens, then probably no order will be issued. According to the current situation, the situation over there should be very chaotic, and there should be no way to take care of our affairs in a short time.

Although the last sneak attack was not successful, it did deal a certain blow to the opponent. I just don’t know what will happen this time.

wrong!

Judging from Edith's personality, she's definitely prepared something. All we have to do is do it. She's definitely prepared something! Absolutely! Absolutely!

"Tell me, Nadia, has Edith prepared anything to get us in safely? Or will scouts from your Rom family come to pick us up?"

"What are you thinking about? The scouts have already gone to work elsewhere. Otherwise, there would be no need for Onee-sama to send us out. I'll only say this once. Although I don't know what you plan to do, my job is to draw a map. I don't care what you plan to do, but you must not interfere with me. This is the most basic thing, understand?"

It's like I want to hinder you. I naturally have my own purpose, but...

I have to find that so-called antidote. Even if it's just for my own strength, I have to do it. It doesn't matter if Lenora doesn't appreciate it. I'm just doing what I think is right. I don't need her to appreciate it or anything like that...

And according to that guy's personality, even if I really brought back the antidote or something, nothing would happen. At most, he would just say you stole it from somewhere.

Why do I get more motivated the more I think about it...

"What are you doing over there? Hurry up and leave. It's safest to go this way."

"Is it safe? If I remember correctly, you were bitten by a snake here last time."

"Shut up! That's all in the past! I'll never get bit by a snake again!"

I also hope you don't get bit by snakes again. I don't want to suck out the venom for you. You'll never forget the smell...

The smell of snake venom is a mixture of fish poison and bitter gall, which can make people vomit countless times.

"In short, it's better to be careful."

"I don't need you to care about me. If you have that kind of heart, you might as well care about my elder sister. She is the most tired and dangerous person..."

That rascal...

Do you need my concern?

Chapter 288 It’s Better to Hu Lai

In the end, we still arrived at the place we visited last time, but it was no longer so easy to sneak into it.

From a distance, one can sense that there are a lot of auras over there, like secret sentries, who are staring at this area closely.

"It seems that because of the last incident, there are secret guards everywhere. We should not act rashly."

There are many secret sentries around, so we definitely can't act rashly, but...
