54 Investigate Sir Aethelwolf
Prince Calvin was on his way to the mansion of the Reynolds Household. He didn’t use his carriage this ti and was riding on his Equus. It was one of the rarest breeds with its golden mane that shone brilliantly under the sun’s light. It was a gift from his father after he reached the age of ten.
The second prince didn’t bring many of his subordinates and only brought the four strongest among them to ensure his safety.
This ti, he had really co prepared. He even brought healing pills for the newly recovered Lord Julius and also a Refined rank cauldron for Sir Aethelwolf. He initially wanted to give him a Unique rank cauldron, but there was no such thing sold in the market. In the entire Leone Empire, perhaps Lord Karman was in possession of one!
Not long later, Prince Calvin’s group arrived in front of the mansion.
“Greetings, Your Highness! We’ve been waiting for your arrival!”
Prince Calvin noticed that Reed was among the guards who greeted him. He imdiately smiled and said. “Good morning, Sir Reed. I hope I didn’t co too early.”
Reed shook his head and responded. “Lord Julius has been waiting for you, Your Highness. He is greatly looking forward to your arrival. Even Lord Harold and Madam Antonette are inside, waiting for you. Please follow .”
“Alright.” Prince Calvin was a bit surprised. He didn’t expect the three leaders of the Reynolds Household to be waiting for him.
Reed jumped on his Equus and brought Prince Calvin’s group inside the mansion.
.....
“You guys can wait for here.” Prince Calvin ordered his subordinates.
“Yes, Your Highness!” The four n replied in unison.
Reed stared at the four n dressed in golden armor with a solemn gaze. All four of them were Level 3 Espers!
After calming his heart, Reed turned his head to the second prince. “Lord Julius and the others are waiting for you in the guest hall, Your Highness.”
Reed took the second prince to the guest hall where he saw Lord Julius and the rest looking at him with serious gazes.
Seeing this, he instantly realized that sothing was going on, but he didn’t show it to his face.
“Greetings, Your Highness!” Lord Julius and the others greeted the second prince.
Prince Calvin waved his hand and smiled radiantly. “There is no need for formalities. Good morning to all of you. I ca here to congratulate Lord Julius on your successful recovery. Here’s a small gift of mine to speed up your healing.” He handed a small box to the old man.
Lord Julius took the box and put it aside. He then smiled at the second prince. “Thank you for having the ti to visit this old man, Your Highness. I know that you’re very busy since you’re tasked with overseeing the matters regarding the battle event. I’m honored to have your presence here. Co, sit here beside . We have a lot to talk about.”
Prince Calvin grew even more suspicious when he saw how Lord Julius acted, but he still obediently sat beside him. They then chatted about the matters of the empire. Lord Harold and Madam Antonette also joined their conversation.
When their topic reached the situation regarding the academy, Lord Julius started telling the second prince about what Sir Aethelwolf had told them last night during dinner.
The more he heard about it, the more astonished the second prince was. This was a great idea and the things that troubled His Majesty would be gone if they followed the plan. Just that, who would they nominate for the headmaster position? Suddenly, the second prince thought about a certain Alchemist and his mind could not help but wonder. Could it be him?
“Sir Julius, are you guys telling to nominate Sir Aethelwolf for the headmaster position?” Prince Calvin knew that this was the reason why the group was very enthusiastic when he ca, but this was also good since he ca here to befriend the young Alchemist. If he helps them, he would gain the favor of the Reynolds Household, remove the troubles of His Majesty, and also make friends with the talented Sir Aethelwolf! This was killing three birds with one stone! How could he waste this chance?
Lord Julius nodded his head. “I wanted to go visit His Majesty personally, but I just recovered from my injury. Besides, His Majesty is also a very busy person so it might be difficult to get an appointnt to et him, but if it’s Your Highness, you would surely be able to et His Majesty much quicker than . What do you think?”
Prince Calvin was excited in his heart, but he concealed it deeply. He put on a pondering look as he casually asked. “Does Sir Aethelwolf know about this?”
Lord Julius, Lord Harold, and Madam Antonette stared at each other.
“Your Highness, to tell you the truth, the one who ca up with this idea is Sir Aethelwolf.” Lord Harold muttered.
Prince Calvin reclined on his chair and was internally surprised. ‘To think that Sir Aethelwolf is also a master in devising tactics! His knowledge about politics is also beyond the scope of normal scholars, but his background is still questionable so I have to investigate things first before I tell father about this.’
“I’ll inform His Majesty about this before the battle event begins.” Prince Calvin said in a serious tone. He then took out the cauldron that he had prepared for Sir Aethelwolf and handed it to Lord Julius.
“Sir Julius, this is my gift to Sir Aethelwolf, I hope you can bring it to him.”
Lord Julius and the other two were stunned when they realized that it was a Refined rank cauldron.
“Of course! I will bring it to him later.” Lord Julius smiled widely. Now that the second prince has shown them his support, he was very happy.
“Alright. In that case, I will make so preparations before I visit His Majesty. He must be inford of this matter as soon as possible.” Initially, Prince Calvin wanted to stay for a while and find Sir Aethelwolf, but since there was a more important matter, he had to schedule it at another ti.
“You’re right, Your Highness.”
“In that case, I shall not stay for long. Please send my regards to Samira and Sir Aethelwolf.” Prince Calvin stood up and shook hands with them.
“Of course! No problem!”
After that, the second prince quickly left the mansion to make so investigations about Sir Aethelwolf. He wanted to see if there is anything questionable about his origins.
anwhile, Lord Julius, Lord Harold, and Madam Antonette were all smiling.
“The only thing left for us to do is to wait.” Lord Julius mumbled.
