"Yes, I have urgent business to attend to in the Snow City."
Leon replied, "Alright, go ahead."
"Your Highness, this coat?"
"You can return it to me when I return to Guberlan next time. Also, please wish your brother a happy wedding."
"Your Highness—"
Before Daly could say anything more, Leon had already mounted his horse and left.
Upon arriving at the city hall, Daly met Moses.
In Daly's eyes, Moses had changed a lot. He had grown a beard and looked a bit older, but he also had a more official air about him, and his temperament had become much calmer and more reserved.
After the brother and sister met and exchanged a few pleasantries, Mo Xifang finally asked the question that had been bothering him at the beginning, "Guberlan needs to travel by water and then by land to get to Yiling City. How did you get here so quickly? And what about the clothes you're wearing?"
Faced with Moses's doubts, Daly told him about how she had taken leave from the library, was preparing to catch the ship after get off work, and then met Leon.
"It's Your Highness! It's so good that Your Highness is alright. Praise be to the goddess! Thank you for your protection."
Moses muttered to himself.
Moses realized that he had been promoted to his current position by Leon, and through their time together, he believed that Leon was a leader worth following.
"Brother, do you think His Highness might like me?"
"Dali whispered."
"Don't overthink it. Alright, it's best if you don't mention this again in the future, otherwise it will have a negative impact."
Moses gave a serious reminder.
Moses knew perfectly well why Leon was unwilling to see him or attend his wedding.
Now Leon's political standing has declined. During his time as regent, Leon offended too many powerful figures, and Leon was intentionally suppressing the emerging forces associated with Leon. Therefore, if Moses wanted to continue to survive and climb higher, he had to pretend to distance himself from Leon. To the outside world, Moses always maintained that he had absolutely no connection with Leon.
His Highness Leon is not seeing me because he doesn't want to implicate me!
In addition, Leon's decision to give Daly a ride was probably also out of consideration for Moses, and out of concern for his subordinate's family.
After all, the girl Leon liked was the priestess who saved his life. That priestess was far superior to his sister in every way. How could Leon have given Deli to Deli just because he liked her?
Such consideration for subordinates!
Your Highness, I will follow you forever and live up to your expectations.
Moses' resolve to follow Leon grew stronger.
Chapter Fifty-Four: Arrival in the Snow Capital
The border of the Yiling Grassland.
Leon was stopped when he rode his horse over there.
As for the airship captain and his crew, after confirming that Leon had arrived in Yiling City, they rested and prepared to return to Guberlan, because their mission was to take Leon to Yiling City, and other matters were no longer their concern.
"Your Highness Leon?"
The knight commander blocking the way spoke uncertainly.
"it's me."
Leon dismounted. "I want to see the head coach, Rezé."
"Your Highness, please wait a moment."
The knight commander returned two minutes later. "Your Highness, Lord Rezer requests your presence."
Following the Knight Commander, Leon arrived at the main battle camp.
There was only one blue-haired man with brown eyes inside. The man wasn't very tall, but he was strong enough. Although it was their first meeting, Leon could easily guess that he was Razer.
"Your Highness Leon, what's going on?"
Reiji looked at Leon with a questioning gaze.
"I have obtained His Majesty Caesar's permission, and now I am going to the Snow City to become his apprentice."
"Leon replied."
"Going to the Snow Capital? Is Your Highness going alone?"
Lei Zhe paused for a moment, then continued to ask.
"Ah."
Leon replied, "That's why I need Lord Rezer's help."
“Alright, to get to the Snow Kingdom, you need to cross the Izero Mountains. I can send a squad of knights to escort Your Highness.”
"In that case, how long would it take to get there?"
"About half a month."
"There's a faster way, right?"
For example, extraordinary methods.
In the thorn forest, Leon mastered the speed of teleportation, so he felt that if he could teleport, why would he need to rely on his own two feet? And with the resources of Rezhe's army, if it was just to teleport him there alone, it shouldn't be a difficult task.
However, whether Lei Zhe is willing to help is another question.
“Your Highness, teleportation arrays are military secrets and are primarily used during wartime, so this is inconvenient.”
Reiji immediately understood what Leon wanted to say, and smiled slightly before speaking.
As expected, it wasn't that easy.
Leon's heart sank. He thought for a moment and was about to speak when Rezé spoke first, "Of course, if it's just Your Highness alone, that's fine."
?
Leon looked at Reiji, his gaze pausing slightly.
So simple?
"Your Highness, please follow me."
Reiji wore a polite smile, which left Leon somewhat bewildered.
Could it be that the Imperial Uncle had already given instructions?
Leon thought to himself.
Leon, who had watched the anime, was absolutely certain that Razer was the Regent's man, so this explanation was the most reasonable.
With the Regent's methods, even if he is not in the capital, he should be able to find out that he has been brought back from Moonlight City.
His choice to help him was undoubtedly to balance Leon. As long as Leon was still around, no matter how low his status was, Leon would still be restrained.
That's the only explanation I can get, since it's impossible for me to directly ask Lei Zhe for the reason.
Led by Reiji, Leon arrived at a cellar.
The cellar was stuffy, and the temperature was much higher than outside.
Rezhe stopped in front of a scepter stuck in a steel frame.
The scepter has a white, crystal-clear gemstone with snowflake-like fine lines inside.
Leon didn't know what this was, but he was certain it was an extremely rare, high-level epic treasure.
"Touch the gem with your hand, and then silently say the place you want to go, and that's it."
Lei Zhe explained, then bowed slightly, "May Your Highness have a safe journey."
"Yes, thank you, Lord Reizhe."
Leon nodded slightly, then walked forward to the scepter, exhaled a breath of stale air, and reached out to touch the crystal-clear gem.
Go wherever you want?
So what if I just said directly that I wanted to go to Helena's side?
Wouldn't that mean we'd be right next to Helena in no time?
But this sealed artifact shouldn't be that powerful, right?
Leon was slightly moved, but soon felt somewhat troubled.
Why don't we give it a try?
"Your Highness, due to the limited power of the sealing artifact, there is a certain distance. Once you exceed that distance, you cannot reach it. In addition, it is also affected by some uncontrollable factors such as the rules of the place you are going to."
Just as Leon's hand was about to touch the gem, Reiji suddenly added, "Also, you must say the specific location name, otherwise the teleportation will not be successful. And if the teleportation fails, this seal will enter a cooldown period, and the next use will only be after one week."
Ah this...
That is,
All I can do is silently pray in my heart that I want to go to the snow capital!
Leon froze, glanced at Razer, gave him a knowing look, and then, without further hesitation, placed his hand on the gem.
The moment he touched the gem, Leon's surroundings distorted rapidly, becoming blurry and indistinct as if covered by a mosaic.
"I want to go to the Snow City, I want to go to the Snow City, I want to go to the Snow City."
Leon knew that the sealing artifact was working, so he immediately cleared his mind and began to chant rapidly in his heart.
Then, Leon felt an eerie silence fall over him, but this silence did not last long before it was broken.
The tranquility was broken by the bustling city streets.
The blurry "mosaic" disappeared, and Reiji and the cellar were long gone. Leon was now standing on a white street covered in snow.
Not far away, a slogan for the City of Freedom was still posted on a grocery store. The temperature here was very low, and Leon, wearing only a thin white shirt and a black vest, was shivering uncontrollably in the cold wind.
So fast!
Is this really the snow capital?
Leon found it somewhat unbelievable.
That's truly extraordinary power! It's practically comparable to the Flash!
No, even the Flash is nothing special!
"Hello, ma'am."
Leon stopped a woman who was about to pass by him.
The girl was wearing a cotton dress and a thick red scarf around her neck.
"What's wrong, sir?"
The woman stopped and looked at the energetic young man in front of her with a puzzled expression.
"Excuse me, is this the Snow Capital?"
"Leon asked."
"Yes, this is the Snow Capital."
The woman gave Leon a strange look, then quickened her pace and jogged away as if avoiding a lunatic.
It seems it really is true.
Leon thought to himself, then turned and went into a coffee shop.
The café was warm and cozy, which finally made Leon's stiff body feel a little better.
This was his first time in Snow City, and he didn't even know where he was in the city. So he decided to order a coffee first and chat with the staff or other customers to see if he could get any information.
Just as he was thinking this, Leon's gaze fell on a woman. She was a middle-aged woman wearing glasses, with an average appearance and wheat-colored skin, but a very hot figure.
Chapter 55 My House Is Quite Big
Leon noticed the woman because he could feel her gaze lingering on him from time to time as soon as he entered the room, like... like a pervert staring at a young woman in a short skirt with her bare thighs exposed on the subway.
Is this auntie just lusting after me?
