"That explains it. She is the daughter of King Radagon. No wonder she looks a bit like Her Highness Marennia."
"......"
Faced with so many voices, Lani remained calm and followed Roland down the city wall.
He patted Lani's shoulder and said, "Don't worry about it. It doesn't matter what other people say."
"I'm not that fragile yet."
The red-haired girl rode in his carriage and left the area together.
Roland was holding Torina, while Lani was sitting opposite her, and their eyes met for a moment.
"I'll take you to find Lakkad first, and then I'll leave."
"Going to find the Eternal Queen?" Lani leaned back in her chair and looked at the scenery outside the window.
People along the way kept backing away, leaving her space, as if this could make time stand still.
"No, I need to see if my mother has time first." Roland shook his head. "Even if I want to see my mother, I need a little luck."
"........."
Lani did not answer, but just kept looking out the window. The faint light of the golden tree kept the royal city bright.
She found that this place was really different from the magic academy. The climate was dry and cold, life was slow, and people were always leisurely, staring out the window.
She asked, looking back.
"Where is my brother?"
"Well, I don't know either. The driver should know."
With the help of Miss Black Knife, Roland knew the Royal City very well.
He smiled and said, "Don't worry, the driver will take us there, you just need to get off the car."
"Ok."
The carriage was not traveling very fast in the city and it took nearly half an hour to stop outside a restaurant.
It is a restaurant only for nobles, and a banquet is being held inside at the moment.
Roland opened the car door for her, and Lani jumped out and looked at the people in the restaurant.
The bearded man sitting in the main seat was her brother whom she had not seen for a long time.
He had no interest in prying into other people's lives, so it would be better for him to go back if he had the time.
The carriage took another ten minutes to stop in front of the palace. He carried Torina out, thinking of throwing her back to the bedroom before looking for other people.
As a result, I met Marennia on the road. Her eyes brightened and she trotted over.
"Brother, you are back."
"Well, how have you been these days?" Roland and she continued forward. "Did you enjoy the party?"
Chapter 113 Reunion
"It's okay." Marenia followed him with light steps. "I mentioned my brother to Finlay, but she didn't seem to know him."
"Oh, that's normal."
Roland held Torina in his arms, walking slowly and with a relaxed look.
"We just don't know her, but I know her. That warrior is trustworthy. Go train her well."
"Okay." Marenya nodded vigorously.
Since my brother said so, he must be someone worthy of trust.
Together they took Torina back to the bedroom, and Marenia stood in front of the door, the light draped over her shoulders like a light cloak.
Both the girl and Lani have red hair, but they have completely different temperaments.
Lianlian's sickly temperament never disappeared, even after she recovered from her illness and practiced swordsmanship, but just wearing a simple white dress, she made people feel pity for her.
In the dim light, the girl lowered her head.
"Where are you going, brother?"
"There's nothing to do anyway, why don't we go for a walk in the garden?" Roland took the initiative to hold her hand.
He still remembered what Torina had told him, so he took this opportunity to talk about it.
"Okay." The girl smiled peacefully and walked side by side with the young man in the corridor.
Unlike the magic academy which can be closed when possible, the palace can be opened when possible, and the rooms on the second floor have large terraces.
The corridor and the lawn were separated by a stone fence, and the upper level was supported by pillars full of carved patterns. The girl and he stood together in the pavilion in the garden.
The servant brought tea and snacks and then left.
He poured tea for Marlenya himself, and the water in the white porcelain cup created ripples as the water flowed into it.
"I have something to ask you."
"What does my brother want to ask?" Marennia was puzzled. He could even guess about Fenlei's affairs, so there seemed no need to ask her.
"It's related to mushroom cultivation. Mushrooms are part of the corruption law, right?" Roland asked.
Although I had already guessed this, I still had to ask Marennia.
"Well, my brother is right."
Marenia nodded, "But why are you asking this, brother?"
"There is a group of believers in Torina who live under a dark cliff. I think a crop with a stable output would be more useful than sending food."
Roland explained to her, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The quality of black tea has declined recently, and it is not as good as that of Lani.
He continued, "So is there any way they can grow mushrooms?"
"Huh? Is there something your brother doesn't know?" A look of surprise flashed across Marennia's face.
"I told you, I don't know everything, I only know what I know."
After Roland said this, he put down the cup and said to her, "Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Just find someone who is good at it."
"Well, I'll compile the mushroom cultivation method into a book later. Come and get it, brother."
Marenia thought for a moment and said, "It's not something we can just talk about and end."
"I do have a question."
Roland thought for a moment and said, "Can we simplify the process to prayer? They are Tolina's followers, so prayer is more appropriate."
"what?"
This time it was Malenia's turn to be stunned.
What my brother said seems to make sense.
But the problem is, she can't.
Her brother just said that everyone is different, and she just needs to be her brother's sharp edge.
Her little nose twitched twice, "Brother, how about I discuss it with Torina when she wakes up tomorrow?"
"Okay." Roland smiled. He could see that Marlenya wouldn't do it, so there was no need to expose her.
He started chatting with the girl again.
In the water-like dim light, the garden seems to be gently shrouded in a silver veil, exuding a quiet and mysterious atmosphere.
The girl's laughter and chatter could be heard from far away. The young man's eyes were always filled with a gentle smile as he finished his tea with his sister.
--------------
Time moved forward a little, back to when Lani had just been welcomed down from the carriage by Roland.
There weren't too many pedestrians around. This restaurant was located in the aristocratic area, and even with the faint light from the golden tree, the crystal chandeliers were still turned on luxuriously, illuminating the room brightly.
This also made it convenient for her.
Lani saw the familiar man at a glance, with red hair and beard almost connected together.
Among the many soldiers, he held up a wine glass, his face flushed, obviously having drunk a lot of wine.
Her dress and proud temperament made the waiter dare not stop her.
The red-haired girl walked in from outside. Her beautiful face and proud temperament attracted many people's attention.
Many nobles were whispering, discussing whose daughter she was.
The expression on her face became increasingly ugly, and her brows were almost wrinkled together, forming a Chinese character "川".
One person was even bold enough to invite her to sit down and have a drink with him.
The girl just glanced at him with obvious disgust on her face. She was unwilling to have any conversation with him and simply ignored him.
But that person was still pestering her, so Lani simply snapped her fingers, and a cold magical aura swept through the hall, causing everyone to shiver.
The noble felt the threat of death. If he continued to pester, he would surely die.
He was so scared that his legs went limp, and it was the man sitting at the same table who dragged him away.
Now everyone could see the red-haired girl, who had a low ponytail and was wearing the latest women's suit with straight-leg pants.
It is absolutely high-end product, with close-fitting lines and no wrinkles due to movement.
Surrounded by many warriors, the red-haired man also looked at her because of the chill.
His red cheeks showed a smile, and his steps were steady but also hurried.
"Lani, why are you here?"
With just one sentence, everyone present understood who this girl was.
Lacard was obviously very happy. The corners of his mouth raised sharply, revealing a row of white and neat teeth. His arms were raised above his head, as if he was embracing the world to his heart's content, showing his inner joy and satisfaction at the moment.
"Come, let me introduce you."
Lani said nothing and let Lakkad pull her to the seat.
The soldier next to her was very tactful and gave up his seat, brought Lani a new knife, fork and plate, and asked the waiter to add more dishes.
Lakkad was very excited, after all, he hadn't seen his sister for a long time.
Lani sighed deeply. After all, he was her brother. She could talk about the problem tomorrow.
They all praised Lakkad so much that he seemed to be unable to hear anything else.
"How have you been lately? Is your mother okay? I've already told you that those magicians in the academy who didn't dare to take action are a bunch of cowards."
"........."
Listening to Lakkad's words, Lani's eyes were calm as she recalled recent events.
"Me? I'm okay, I'm from the academy. Ha, if the reform wasn't very successful, you wouldn't see me anymore. You would only hear about the war between the Star Mages of the Kalia Royal Family's Magic Academy."
Chapter 114 Source
When she said this, Lani felt a little dissatisfied, because Lacard was her biological brother, with the same father and mother.
I actually thought that the academics would not start a war, and that my mother could still suppress them.
If it weren't for Roland...
The war between the royal family of Kalia and the academic mages had already started, and it was a question whether the city of Kalia could be defended.
As if he could hear his sister's dissatisfaction in this regard, Lacard did not go back at that time. He could only scratch his head and avoid the subject.
"What about the mother?"
"He's still the same, holding the incomplete Great Rune and complaining about himself. Now he's unrecognizable."
Lani became more and more silent as she spoke. "I went to see my mother a few days ago, and she didn't recognize me. She called Big Rune a child."
"........"
For the first time, Lacard felt a little speechless. He picked up the wine glass and took a big gulp of wine.
