Yes, there were only two.
Because Leon had already gotten married with Annelie not long ago. Their marriage was not very grand, but it was befitting their status as nobility.
Adela didn’t attend it, though.
She was not close with Annelie and if she ca there to see Leon... it would feel rather awkward.
Rather than putting herself through all that, Adela felt that it would be better for her not to see them in the first place would be a much better option.
Anyway, Adela didn’t plan to see Leon.
When she tried to advance his storyline back in the Capital Academy, Leon didn’t react in accordance to the ga and instead looked very different. Adela didn’t know what was wrong, but she didn’t want to see the strange scenes anymore.
In the ga, Leon was the only one that had a fiancée aside from Crown Prince Edward.
So advancing their storyline usually required the cooperation of their partner and this was not easy at all.
Crown Prince Edward’s storyline still advanced because there was Mirabelle in the Capital Academy.
Speaking about Mirabelle, she seed to be called back to her territory. Thinking about the last event where Mirabelle was humiliated back then, Adela was not that surprised that Mirabelle didn’t want to stay in the Yellow Kingdoms’ Capital City anymore.
That event should have been Aurora’s but Mirabelle jumped forward.
As long as the storyline advanced, it should be fine.
Adela sighed and leaned back on the chair.
There were several options in front of her and none of them sounded good for Adela.
Prince Charles and Benny.
Well, Adela also didn’t want to choose Benny.
That muscle brained man was suitable to beco a knight but if he were to beco a partner, Adela could guess that she couldn’t stand him. He never thought about anything and always charged forward recklessly.
Without the presence of Crown Prince Edward and Louis who helped to restrain him, he might have done a lot of mistakes.
Adela sighed when she thought about it.
Speaking of which, Adela hadn’t seen Benny for a long ti.
"Louis, do you know where Benny is?" Adela asked.
"Sir Benny has returned to his territory." Louis glanced at Adela. "Haven’t you asked this question before?"
"I have?" Adela tilted her head. She didn’t seem to rember that. Then again, Adela didn’t really pay that much attention to Benny, so she might have forgotten about it.
"Yes." Louis nodded.
"It’s been a long ti since I see him, so I’m wondering whether he will return," Adela replied.
Even though she didn’t want to choose Benny at all, Adela didn’t want to let go of this chance to have a knight for free. A knight that she didn’t have to maintain but would follow her order all the ti.
It was really good.
"Well, the Davis Family seems to have declared their loss not long ago." Louis frowned when he thought about this.
He was also surprised when he heard this because from what he knew, the Davis Family had a lot of knights. Moreover, their family mbers were also strong to a certain degree.
They should have been fine when dealing with the bandits and so on.
Yet despite all of that, the Davis Family lost miserably.
Even Louis had to say that he was surprised with it.
They applied for help to the Royal Family and in turn, they would have to give up their territory. Nobles with territory had the obligation to protect their territory. If they couldn’t do that, then they were not qualified to have one in the first place.
The rules were strict and from now on, the Davis Family would no longer have any territory.
Even if the first son still inherited his father’s title, it would be hard for him to go anywhere.
Because there was no source of inco.
For many nobles, their main source of inco was their territory. If they didn’t have any territory, they would have to figure out other ways to earn money and it would not be easy at all.
Benny was precisely in this situation.
"Is he alright?" Adela was now worried.
Crown Prince Edward had just suffered not long ago and now she heard that Benny was also experiencing difficulties?
How co everything turned out differently from the ga?
In the ga, Benny would beco a very famous knight because of his superb skill. The Davis Family behind him was also his backing and even if Benny had to go through various missions in order to beco a noble, they could still lend him a helping hand.
Now, without the Davis Family behind him, can Benny obtain enough rit to beco a noble quickly?
Adela was very worried.
She wanted to have a knight to protect her, but without Benny’s bright future, he would be no different from many other struggling knights. It would not be worthwhile to keep him around.
"Don’t worry, Benny will co to the Yellow Kingdom’s Capital City soon," Louis said. "However, he might not have enough ti to spend with us because he has to work."
Adela nodded dumbly.
They were no longer students in the Capital Academy who have nothing to do but to study and then play around. They have grown up and had to take care of a lot of responsibility on their shoulder.
It would no longer be the sa as they used to be.
As much as Adela wished they could always stay the sa, it would be highly impossible.
Ti couldn’t be stopped.
They would eventually grew up and had to assu the responsibility as an adult.
"Do you want to see him?" Louis asked, his eyes darkened slightly. He didn’t really like Benny because he felt that this man was really stupid. He kept on doing things that was so stupid that Louis really wanted to knock his head.
As for what happened to the Davis Family?
While Louis did feel so pity for them, but he had no intention to help at all.
He couldn’t really help, anyway.
"I’m just a bit worried." Adela shook her head quickly.
She didn’t have any intention to find Benny. He should be busy with other things and for now, Adela would not think too much about it.
Knock! Knock!
"Miss Adela, Duke White and Duchess Isabella are here to see you."
Adela took a deep breath.
"Co in."
...
When Adela was talking with her parents, Louis naturally left the room. He had no intention to eavesdrop, so he walked around the palace.
Naturally, he would not break the restriction for guests.
There were so places that were off limits for them.
Louis felt a bit irritable when he thought that Adela was worried about Crown Prince Edward and now she was thinking about Benny.
It was annoying.
Pri Minister Lat ca out of the main hall with a tired face. When he saw Louis there, he waved his hand.
"Father," Louis greeted politely.
"How’s Lady Adela?" Pri Minister Lat asked. When he thought about how Duke White and Duchess Isabella behaved just now, Pri Minister Lat have a headache. Even Queen Ella was no match to the two of them when they were so determined.
There were also so other nobles who heard this matter and went to see the Yellow Kingdom’s King not long ago. They expressed their stances and many of them were not in favorable light of Crown Prince Edward.
It could be said that the Yellow Kingdom’s King was under heavy pressure from many people.
They didn’t like him and didn’t want such a person to be the king.
Crown Prince Edward also listened to the words of the nobles and it could be said that he almost collapsed out of anger.
None of these nobles were wiling to speak for Crown Prince Edward.
Previously, there were still so nobles on Crown Prince Edward’s side because of various reasons.
But now?
It would be highly impossible for them to stand on Crown Prince Edward’s side.
They were unwilling to support him now.
Because his action had long crossed their bottom line.
It was truly an unsightly eting.
"She’s fine, just worried," Louis replied, unsure why his father suddenly asked this question to him. After all, Pri Minister Lat was not exactly a person who would care for a woman.
This was sothing that was out of the ordinary.
Pri Minister Lat nodded.
It seed that Duke White and Duchess Isabella’s decision was sothing they made by themselves. Then again, it was not that strange for parents to intervene in this kind of matters.
It was especially because there were a lot of profit involved in this matter.
"His Majesty had made the decision." Pri Minister Lat looked at Louis and then said carefully, "Prince Edward is no longer the crown prince. His Majesty, the Yellow Kingdom’s King, has decided to revoke his title and the competition for the throne is now open."
