Claire was a bit hesitant. The rebels were their countrys internal affairs and Caesar was a Lombard Kingdom prince, even if he had no bad intentions, Claire didnt know whether to tell him such important information or not.
Even if they were to reclaim the holy sword, it would be up to Claire, not you. Who knows what this guy is plotting?
Claires worries werent unreasonable, no one would easily give away such precious information. But after thinking about it for a bit, Claire felt like it was better to tell Caesar.
There were two reasons. One, she knows about how Caesar is as a person and was even more sure that he was a gentleman after eting him today, so he wouldnt do anything that would be bad for Gotham Kingdom. So she felt like it wasnt a big deal to tell him and she gets a strong fighter that can help them with the rebels.
Two, and the most important reason, Caesar was Lin Xiaos good friend! Based on what Claire knew, the two of them had a very good relationship and faced a lot of hardship together.
Okay, since youre Lin Xiaos friend, Ill tell you for his sake. Claire responded honestly and then handed over the information related to the missing Holy Sword to Caesar.
Thank you. Caesar nodded and was just about to look into the information when he noticed sothing weird about what she said.
Um princess Claire, what did you an when you said for Lin Xiaos sake?
Exactly what it ans.
I dont understand, are you saying that because Lin Xiao helped you, youre helping to repay him?
Hm, pretty much.
So, youre only showing this precious report because Im his friend?
Thats right, Im helping you because youre his friend. Claire calmly responded then tilted her head and asked, Is there a problem with that?
You!? Caesar was angry after finding out the truth and then Claire looked at him innocently and stabbed him another ti.
Is there a problem with that?
Yes, is there a problem with that?
Princess Claire, the kings representative, had such high regard for Lin Xiao that she would blindly trust his friends, is there a problem with that?
Yes, theres a huge problem, okay!?
Caesar never would have expected that they were nobodies to Claire and if it werent for their relationship to Lin Xiao, they might have not even been able to have a eting with her!
Caesar clenched the docunt in his hand as he learned the cruel truth. The thick stack of papers was going to tear as it let out an unpleasant crunching sound.
Rosie quickly held Caesars arm to comfort him when she saw this. She could understand Caesars feelings, he wanted to be one step ahead of Lin Xiao, but in the end, he still had to rely on the fact that he was Lin Xiaos friend to get important information. This was a direct insult to his dignity!
Caesar almost tore the papers in his hand in anger! He had no intention of trading his dignity for anything!
Thankfully Rosie was there. She was already used to helping him when he lost his cool, she just had to hold his arms and gently whisper into his ears to console this temperantal lion cub.
Caesar felt Rosies concern and quickly controlled his emotions, but he wasnt willing to stay any longer. He received the important docunts and politely bid farewell to Claire and got up to leave.
As long as he had that, he had a chance to find the heros sword, which was more important than anything else, so what about so pent-up frustration?
Caesar silently decided that he was going to beat Lin Xiao this ti, find the Holy Sword and prove he was better!
But when he was leaving, he suddenly felt the need to ask sothing.
Right Claire, do you know where Lin Xiao went? It seems hes not in the city anymore.
Oh yes, he went to the west supply station to look for Deborah.
Supply station?
Caesar didnt know why he would go there and found out from Claire that he went to look for sothing called a sacred crystal fruit.
Why is he looking for a sacred crystal fruit?
I dont know are you looking for him for sothing?
N-no, I was just asking goodbye princess Claire, thank you for your help.
Hehe, goodbye.
Caesar didnt waste any more ti and quickly led Rosie out of the house.
This eting was very successful, they got important information from Claire and could finally start investigating the stolen Holy Sword. He should be happy, but for so reason, he couldnt be.
Caesar, you dont have to feel down, you just have to help the hero find the Holy Sword, you dont have to compete with that damn Lin Xiao!
Rosie thought that Caesar was still trying to compete and tried to comfort him, but Caesar shook his head and talked about sothing unrelated.
Rosie, do you know why he went to look for the sacred crystal fruit?
Hm how would I know?
Guess if you dont know! I feel like hes hiding sothing. Although Caesar had no proof, his instincts told him it wasnt that simple!
With how lazy Lin Xiao was, there was no way he would personally go look for sothing like that unless it was an important mission.
Hm it is strange, let think about it. Rosie thought about the recent intelligence she got and quickly ca to a conclusion.
I heard he was called to the church by Saintess Snow a couple of days ago, then he left the city after that could he be helping Snow?
If youre right, then the question is why does Snow need the sacred crystal fruit?
Thats obviously because because because of experintation!
Rosies brain churned quickly as she responded.
Her reasoning was simple Lin Xiao was lazy, the only reason he would go looking for sothing must be because his little sister asked him to! And Snow has been experinting on the black core recently, so theres only one reason she would ask her brother to go look for the fruit!
Snow needs it as a final ingredient for her experints, so she asked Lin Xiao to go get it! That ans Snow is close to completing the cure, thats great!
Rosies first reaction was to be happy about the good news, but Caesar focused on sothing different.
If thats true then doesnt that an hes in danger?
Do you an that Lin Xiaos already been marked by the enlightened?
Thats right! As long as Lin Xiao leaves, he would be watched by the enlightened! No not just watched, his na might have even been written into an assassination list.
Could we be just too sensitive? Since were just making wild guesses and dont have any proof.
No, its not just wild guesses! They wont let him go and this is a perfect opportunity for them to act!
If Caesar wasnt wrong, then Lin Xiao is in a dangerous spot, and he isnt vigilant, if no one warns him, he might be in trouble!
Caesar what should we do?
Rosie bit her lips and silently looked down at the docunt that Caesar was holding.
Caesar was currently faced with a choice
