He was very angry.
Chris and Ron did not enter the enemy camp alone, they also brought with them Felissa, the leader of the Royal Knights. Although the latter was already very old, her seventh-level strength should not be underestimated, and even he had to deal with her with caution.
Besides, Ron came here in public. If he took matters into his own hands, the Royal Academy of Magic would certainly pursue the matter. It was obviously irrational to offend two seventh-level magicians at the same time.
Duke Lauster, who was sitting in the main seat, put down the agreement and said slowly: "Your Highness's proposal is indeed good, but I need some time to deal with the relevant trivial matters. I hope Your Highness will understand."
Chris, who was wearing casual clothes, smiled and said, "Duke Laust is worrying too much. You can rest assured to hand over the huge mine to us. We will bear all the problems afterwards."
Duke Laust shook his head in embarrassment and said, "It's not that I don't believe in the Princess's ability. Your Highness, you don't know that the thieves around the mine are strong and often interfere with our mining work.
With the military strength of the Norman Kingdom, it will probably cost a lot to completely solve the bandit problem. Excuse me, this is not good, because the Norman Kingdom will have to deal with the war with the demons next, and we can't waste financial and human resources on such trivial matters.
Otherwise, future wars may be... "
To Chris, these words were clearly a naked threat. The real hidden danger was actually the Grand Duke who was nurturing bandits for his own benefit. These so-called thieves were his private soldiers from the beginning to the end.
For Chris, this is a cancer that must be eradicated.
What is undeniable is that the words of the Duke of Laust had some impact on Chris. Not to mention the issue of waste of money and manpower, the most crucial thing is that the military power is not in her hands. The only forces controlled by Chris are the Royal Knights and the Royal Magicians.
If she wanted to eradicate this cancer, she had to take risks.
"Don't bother your Excellency the Duke with the problem of thieves. That's my business. I will find a way to solve it."
Ron, who was sitting next to Chris, said, "I am an adult now, and the family estate should be inherited by me. I hope that the Duke can return the things to me under the witness of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
I believe that Duke Lost has lived an upright life and would not do such a mean thing, right?"
Duke Lauster was so angry that he laughed at Ron's words. He pointed at Ron's nose and said, "How can you, a little kid, know how powerful these thieves are? They are lawless and unrestrained. Their biggest hobby is killing and arson. If you can't suppress them, you may not be safe at home.
Believe it or not, if you take back the giant mine today, tomorrow thieves will kill you with knives. I tell you, among them there may be powerful beings of the sixth or even seventh level.
Are you afraid? ! "
This time the threat was even stronger. He almost said that he would kill Ron if he dared to take back the giant mine.
There is naturally a seventh-level strongman among this group of thieves, and everyone knows this strongman because he is Laust.
Chris was very unhappy to hear this. She frowned and said, "Duke Lauster, what you said..."
Ron interrupted Chris before she finished speaking: "Duke Lauster may not know that I live in the student dormitory of the Royal Magic Academy, which is very close to the private estate of the old dean.
I don't think the thieves would dare to do anything to me, what do you think?"
Lauster's face turned darker: "......"
Ron was right. He really didn't dare to break in and kill Ron. In terms of strength, he was far inferior to the old dean who had already reached the seventh level.
Seeing that his threats were ineffective, Lauster started to act tough again: "No, as an elder, I cannot watch you take risks. I am not confident in handing over the huge mine to you before the thieves are completely eliminated. The water here is deep and you cannot control it."
"Whether I can grasp it or not is my business. Duke Laust, don't worry. We are here today just to remind you to go through the procedures. In the next few days, we will start to promote the recovery of the giant mine. I just hope that your people can leave in advance, otherwise we will treat them as accomplices of the thieves."
Ron had a smile on his face: "I believe Duke Lost has nothing to do with those thieves, right?"
Chris was slightly stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect Ron to be tougher than her.
Her initial plan was to force Duke Laust to sign a withdrawal agreement for the sake of justice, but this move obviously failed.
Ron's words were undoubtedly tantamount to tearing off relations directly. It was foreseeable that the private soldiers originally stationed around the giant mine would be converted into thieves on a one-to-one basis. It would undoubtedly be much more troublesome to deal with these people by then.
Out of trust in Ron, Chris did not stop him. She believed that Ron would not do something without a purpose.
"Arrogant, really arrogant!"
Laust slammed the table and was about to get angry. As a duke, it was the first time he was scolded by a junior.
"Father, the second prince, Hai Ruisi, requests to see you."
Just at this moment, Penny, with purple hair, came over gracefully.
He asked, "Why did Harris come to see me?"
Penny glanced at Ron and winked at him secretly: "His Royal Highness said he came to ask for an engagement from me."
Duke Lauster, who was already angry, snorted coldly and said, "I have something to do right now and can't get away. Ask him to wait for me for a while. We can discuss the engagement anytime."
"Okay, I understand. I'll go right away."
Penny responded and left the living room.
Then Ron pretended to be panicked and ran out after Petunia.
At first, Lauster was a little confused when he saw this scene, but he immediately recalled that Penny had had contact with Ron before, and she even gave Ron a chronic poison.
Could it be that the idiot Ron fell in love with Petunia at that time?
Duke Laust was delighted, what a great idea!
He would ask Penny to increase the dosage of the poison later. It would be best if Ron died suddenly tomorrow. For this, he didn't mind letting Penny sacrifice a little of her looks.
As for the second prince who came to propose?
Just a tool, it doesn't matter.
Thinking of this, Laust whispered a few words to his confidant, asking him to convey his orders to Penny.
......
A few minutes later, the second prince, carrying a box of jewelry as a gift, came to Penny's boudoir under the guidance of a maid.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Miss Petunia, are you there? I'm here to give you a present."
He knocked on Penny's door with joy, but all he was greeted with was a strange moan, as if she was doing exercise.
Chapter 46 Come on, Your Highness!
The second prince, Harris, was very happy.
He was happy the whole night at the thought that Penny could become his fiancée, and he was happy even though he had conspicuous dark circles under his eyes.
He liked Penny's petiteness, her beauty, and even more her arrogant attitude that kept strangers away.
If he could make Penny his fiancée, he would feel a great sense of accomplishment. Who wouldn't like a girl like that?
Although Penny's notoriety is widespread, her beauty is also outstanding. She can be ranked in the top five in the entire kingdom.
The second prince was very worried.
Because he just heard that Ron also came to Penny's house, and he was afraid that Ron came for Penny.
Whenever he thought of the scene of Ron and Petunia dancing together, he felt a thorn in his heart.
He swore that he would not be a human being if he didn't kill Ron.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Miss Petunia, can you hear me? I have brought you many gifts. I believe you will like them."
Worried, Harris knocked on the door again. He heard Penny was in the room, but she seemed busy and didn't respond to him in time.
"Is it His Highness Harris?"
Penny's suppressed voice came from the room.
Harris's bones almost softened when he heard the charming answer. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, I am here to propose marriage to you. I hope Miss Penny will give me face and let me come in to talk."
Penny immediately refused: "No!"
"Why? Does Miss Petunia hate me?"
Harris' heart skipped a beat. "You said you'd believe me as long as I made my position clear. Are these just polite words?"
Penny: "No... No~ I'm practicing sword skills. I'm at a critical stage right now. I hope Your Highness can wait for me for a while."
Harris had more doubts in his mind. Why did he have to practice sword fighting in a room? Could he perform it in such a small place?
Ron could give an affirmative answer to this. Not only could he use his skills to the fullest, but he could also make good use of every piece of furniture. In his eyes, both tables and chairs were props for practicing swordsmanship.
It was like Penny was sitting astride Ron's legs at this moment, feeding him unripe grapes while learning how to hide the sword perfectly.
As the saying goes, a gentleman hides his abilities and waits for the right moment to strike. Now she is learning to hide her abilities.
This is a difficult process. Even though Penny has succeeded once, she still has to make great efforts to complete the exercise. After all, it is she, not Ron, who is leading this exercise.
If it were Ron, he would definitely use rough methods to teach, and he would not show any mercy to women.
In order to prevent her body from being damaged, Penny had to carefully hide the sword bit by bit. She was halfway through when Harris knocked on the door.
Seeing that half of the sword was still not hidden, she became a little anxious for a moment.
As a swordsman, she was unwilling to admit defeat, so she twisted her incredibly elastic waist in an attempt to find the most suitable angle.
She wanted to achieve unity between man and sword, she wanted to hide the sword on her body.
"Humph~"
A wonderful hum came out of Penny's mouth, and her beautiful eyes were filled with spring water.
Harris scratched his head outside the door: "Miss Penny, are you really practicing sword skills? But why do I feel..."
"Yes~"
Petunia hugged Ron's head tightly and pressed it in front of her.
Fortunately, Penny was not barren, otherwise he would have been dizzy from the impact.
To show encouragement, he held Penny's buttocks with one hand and touched her hair with the other, and he did not forget to eat fruit during the process.
After receiving the signal, Penny tried her best to relax her body, but the harder she tried, the tenser her body became, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of hiding the sword.
The fourth-level body is indeed very strong, but the talented Ron is no pushover. Her delicate and gentle body is both Penny's advantage and disadvantage. To achieve the same effect, she has to work much harder than Yvna.
At least now she was stuck.
Last time I opened my heart because I was frightened, so what should I do this time?
Penny was thinking.
"Excuse me, what kind of sword is Miss Penny practicing?"
Harris leaned over the doorway to listen, and Penny's voice made him uneasy.
Penny: "The sword of growth, the sword of climbing, the sword of transcendence, and the sword of affection that connects our hearts and minds."
Harris: “???”
He didn't understand, this was an area he had never touched before.
"Your Highness, I seem to have encountered some difficulties. Can you help me?"
Realizing she wasn't excited enough, Penny planned to ask for off-field support.
"No problem, I will try my best to do anything Miss Penny asks me to do!"
A smile appeared on Harris' face, and he felt that he was only one step away from success.
Penny continued to increase the downward pressure. She said in a soft voice: "I hope Your Highness can sing a song for me. Maybe the special rhythm can help me break through the shackles of my body."
"No problem, it's my honor to help Miss Petunia."
Harris took a deep breath and sang: "In the darkest place a fire is lit, lighting up the deepest corner of the night.
His fingertips traced my pulse, brewing a conspiracy.
The falling petals are like the sound of clouds, challenging my nerves and testing my sanity.
The rain has just fallen, and it has already intertwined and merged. We are greedy for the sinless evil. "
His singing was not very nice, but it was very rhythmic. In order to touch Penny's nerves, he even chose a love song that was very appropriate for the occasion.
Regardless of whether Penny was affected or not, at least Ron was excited. He bit the grapes lightly, held the girl's slender waist with both hands, and then pulled her down with force.
He broke through five passes and killed six generals along the way. Any obstacles were no match for him. He used brute force to break through the stubborn blockade.
"嘤咛~"
Penny held Ron's head tightly, her body arched backwards unnaturally, as if she was silently enduring a huge impact.
Fortunately, she has the strength of the fourth level, otherwise, someone else might have fainted.
Hairuns outside the door seemed to sense Penny's excitement, so he sang even more vigorously:
"A faint whisper permeates Wushan Mountain. It is like a dream, floating in the clouds.
