Chapter 943: I'm in Calvin, just got off the airship
finally reached……
After getting off the urgently arranged airship and walking to the edge of the boarding tower, Lyon couldn't help but show a hint of amazement in his eyes as he looked at the white city built by the river below and the jade-white lily domes on the tops of countless marble buildings in the city.
No wonder the capital of the Kingdom of Xikalewen is called Lily City. If you look down from a high place, the petals on the roofs that open in six directions really look like a large sea of blooming lilies...
It just seems a little too white.
The dense clouds overhead were briefly missing a piece, and unusually strong sunlight shone through the gap in the clouds, instantly illuminating the entire snow-white city. The scorching sunlight reflected from the beautiful white flower tops made Leon squint his eyes unconsciously.
"Sir, please step back!"
There were some busy sounds coming from behind. When Leon looked back, he found that the security personnel responsible for maintaining order on the boarding tower were running over from a distance, and reminded him with anxious eyes:
"You can't keep looking down from above, or you'll go blind!"
"Oh."
After squinting his eyes and taking a quick look at Lily City and noting the location and distribution of some buildings, Leon did not insist on continuing to observe. Instead, he retreated and apologized with a smile:
"I'm sorry, this is my first time in Lily City. I didn't know there was such a thing. I'm sorry to have troubled you."
"No, no, it's because we didn't give enough reminders."
Seeing that the guest coming down from the VIP cabin did not insist on continuing to enjoy the scenery, the security personnel who ran over couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then, while wondering how this person got over the cordon and why he didn't see it just now, he reminded him in a gentle voice:
"Sir, please get off the tower as soon as possible. The airship will be turning port soon. There will be a lot of chaotic air currents. If you stand here, you may be swept down... Huh?"
After looking at the strange black and white hair on Leon's head, a look of surprise flashed in the security guard's eyes, and then he asked uncertainly:
"Are you... a follower of the Luminous Church?"
Lumen Church?
Leon couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this, then he reached out and touched his hair, and asked back with some curiosity:
"Why do you ask? Because of the color of my hair?"
"Yes."
The security guard nodded, and while leading Leon down the spiral staircase of the tower, he responded with a smile:
"The baptism ceremony of the Luminous Church is coming soon. Among the people who have come to Lily City recently with black hair, nine out of ten are followers of the Luminous Church. You..."
“You’re finally here!”
Just as Leon walked down the spiral staircase, a middle-aged man with white hair came up to him, surrounded by two teams of guards. He introduced himself with a smile:
"Sir Lyon, I am Vernon, the fourth prince of the Kingdom of Calvin. On behalf of the Kingdom of Calvin, I welcome your visit."
"You're welcome."
Although he already had a special trump card to deal with Director Snake, in order to leave time to react in case of a possible sneak attack, Lyon had been wearing the [Heart Lake] badge since he boarded the airship.
After taking a quick look at Prince Vernon's heart and finding it full of kindness and enthusiasm, Leon's originally vigilant expression relaxed a little. He shook the hand he extended, then smiled and said politely:
"Your Highness Vernon, I am not visiting you as a prince this time. This is just a private trip. You don't need to be so formal."
"You are too polite."
Seeing that Leon's attitude was quite friendly, Prince Vernon's attitude suddenly became a little closer. While leading Leon out, he smiled and said:
“Whether it is a private trip or an official visit, you are the husband of Queen Veronica and deserve the highest level of reception in the Kingdom of Calvin.
Actually, my mother's generation or the Patriarch Yousui should have come to greet you personally today, but before you came, someone told you that you didn't want to make it public, so it was changed to be me, the prince, who came to receive you, and the number of guards was kept to a minimum... I hope you don't think it's too simple."
“No, no, it’s already good enough. I don’t want to be noticed by too many people…” This tourist running around… is actually a prince?
Just as Leon and Prince Vernon were speaking in official tones and exchanging pleasantries, the security personnel who heard their conversation turned pale and subconsciously took two steps back.
However, before he could retreat to the appropriate distance, two of the guards brought by Prince Vernon took two steps back and lifted him up, one on the left and one on the right.
Ok?
After noticing the sudden stirring of the heart behind him, Leon couldn't help but look back, and then said with some doubt:
"Your Highness Vernon? What is he doing..."
"He said things to you that he shouldn't have said, and he wasn't respectful enough to you."
After taking a look at the security guard who looked frightened, Prince Vernon's originally "enthusiastic" heart instantly cooled down, and an extremely strong feeling of disgust and anger emerged.
"My father had already issued an order a week ago that all citizens of the Kingdom of Kalevin were not allowed to mention the affairs of the Luminous Church unless asked. However, he directly asked if you were a follower of the Luminous Church.
What is even more unforgivable is that he did not show due respect to you, the prince! Whether it is etiquette, title, or conversation, he is not up to standard. He even stood beside you presumptuously and rudely without your active invitation! "
"..."
No...are you fucked up?
After listening to this strange remark full of complaints, Leon couldn't help but frown.
From what Prince Vernon said, disobeying the king's orders is a small matter, but being disrespectful when receiving a prince like him is a big deal?
Subconsciously glancing at the white-robed guards around him, seeing the justified and even somewhat indignant expressions on their faces, Leon could not help but frown and stop them:
"It's not his fault. It's because I didn't identify myself at the beginning."
"No, it's his fault."
Seeing that Leon seemed to be trying to plead for the security personnel, Prince Vernon couldn't help but smile and said seriously:
"In order to avoid such an overstepping of authority, all security guards must stay firmly at their posts. However, he did not follow the rules and took the initiative to leave his position, which offended you. So this is still his fault!"
"I didn't take the tourist passage. I climbed over the cordon and stood at the edge of the boarding tower looking down at the scenery."
Lyon was extremely speechless by this meaningless and bizarre debate, but he was too embarrassed to beat Prince Vernon with a big fight, so he could only continue to argue:
"He left his position to ensure my safety. If that's the case, then the problem is still with me."
So that's what happened...
After hearing what Leon said, Prince Vernon couldn't help but reveal a look of realization in his eyes, and then he hurriedly called out to the guards behind him:
"Let him go! What happened just now was not his fault! You caught the wrong guy!"
Hey~ that's right!
"Come! Arrest the criminal Lord Leon!"
"..."
ah? ? ? ? ?
