Chapter 133 Perfect Performance (4k)
Moon clearly remembered that he was sent there by the pocket watch shortly after Al left.
Just like the last time something happened to the dwarf, he was sent to the relevant Balin.
This time when Baratheon got into trouble, he was sent directly to Contus Westeros.
He even happened to hear what the other party said.
At the same time, he could see Contas, apparently with the help of the pocket watch.
It’s as if I can see the souls of those who traveled through time.
And I don't know if it was an accident or it was real.
Moon always felt that with every time he traveled through time, the pocket watch was sending him to the right place with increasing accuracy and power.
The pocket watch was still ticking as usual.
After looking at it for a while, Moon smiled and continued to put the pocket watch on his chest as a heart shield.
As the saying goes, make the best use of everything.
If the pocket watch were a true friend, it would be happy to be helped.
If the pocket watch is actually the enemy, then wouldn't it be even more appropriate to use it to defend against a sneak attack? !
perfect!
Although it was late at night, the Southern Territory was different from the Imperial Capital. There was no strict curfew like in the Imperial Capital.
Even the hunting soldiers were to be sent back to the imperial capital.
For example, now, Moon was walking towards the dock.
According to Ai'er's intelligence, the southern border's sound-hunting soldiers will return to the imperial capital by airship tomorrow.
On the surface, this is Ai'er's request, but in fact it is the Queen's request.
The Queen ordered all the hunting soldiers to be repatriated on the grounds that the southern part of El did not need the Empire's minions.
It was for Mr. Potter.
Ansha wants to meet this first witness in person.
Moon happened to follow them back on their airship.
Turning the ring slightly, Moon walked silently in the heavily guarded Southern Dock.
Looking at the Southern Territory Knight who walked past him without any reaction.
Moon sighed again:
"Level 0 seals are so useful!"
Just like that, Moon walked directly into the airship of the sound-hunting soldiers.
Because the Supervisory Council in the South Territory is just a decoration, there are not many sound-hunting soldiers here, and one medium-sized airship is more than enough for them.
So it didn't take much effort for Moon to find Mr. Potter's room.
As Silver Owl and the core of this incident.
Mr. Porter had a private room of his own.
After confirming that this was indeed the room, Moon knocked on Mr. Porter's door.
'I hope Mr. Potter won't scare himself.'
At the same time in the room.
Mr. Porter was pacing restlessly around the room.
He couldn't figure out what was going on, and he couldn't see what his future would be like.
That gentleman should be Lord Trajan, there is no doubt about that, right?
But why, under such circumstances, would he be sent back to the imperial capital by the new Grand Duke?
Isn't that sending yourself to death?!
Al knew the actual situation, so he just sent Potter back as the Queen requested.
Anyway, the Queen won't do anything to Mr. Potter.
But Potter didn't know this, and his status was too low, so even if he wanted to ask, he couldn't find anyone to ask what was going on.
The only thing that made him feel fortunate was that, apart from the Boris Golden Eagle, his other colleagues really knew nothing.
This gave Porter a glimmer of hope.
Does that mean that I haven't been discovered by others yet? !
After thinking about it, Mr. Porter still wanted to go to Boris Golden Eagle to ask again.
He had looked for it before, but Boris Golden Eagle had been in a daze ever since he met the adults from the Southern Territory that day.
Mouthful of:
'How did I hurt myself? ' 'Oh my god, how could this happen? ' 'The world must be crazy! '
Can't communicate well at all.
It was at this time that someone knocked on the door.
"Who?"
Mr. Porter didn't take it too seriously.
He just asked and then opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, Mr. Porter stood there like a stone sculpture.
"Hello, Mr. Potter Harry."
Looking at this familiar face, Mr. Potter's legs immediately went weak.
If he hadn't been quick enough to hold onto the door frame, he would have probably fallen down.
“You, you, you, you, you!”
In great astonishment, Mr. Porter said "you" five times in a row and couldn't utter the rest of the words.
"It is me, without a doubt, Mr. Potter."
Seeing Moon walking forward, Mr. Porter hastily made way for him, but in doing so, he collapsed down onto his seat.
"Close the door, please."
After hearing this, Mr. Porter, who was trying to stand up by pulling the door handle, was in such a hurry that he didn't even care to get up.
He quickly knelt on the ground and closed the door.
Looking back and seeing him like this, Mo En said helplessly:
"Mr. Potter, there's no need to be so scared, right?"
I am not some man-eating devil.
It would have been better if Moon didn't say anything. After he said this, Mr. Porter, who was about to stand up, fell down again due to his weak legs.
"No no no, you you you"
"Mr. Potter, take a deep breath. Take a few more deep breaths. That will help you relax."
I don’t know whether Moon’s reminder worked or Potter didn’t dare to not take action.
Anyway, after taking a few deep breaths, Mr. Porter finally stood up normally.
Even my calves are still trembling.
"Why are you here, old man?"
Moen smiled and said:
"You guys are going back to the Imperial Capital tomorrow, and I happened to be going there as well, so I came straight here."
"But, but, but you, you shouldn't."
"Relax and don't think too much. I'm just going to the imperial capital."
"Right. You should know who I am, right?"
Mr. Potter nodded subconsciously:
"Yes, you are, no no no, I don't know, I don't know who you are."
Moen smiled dumbly and said:
"That's knowing."
This was just something Moon said casually, but Mr. Potter was so scared that he knelt on the ground and cried:
"My lord, my lord, I really don't know, please, I really don't know!"
Such a reaction was beyond Moon's expectations, and after a brief surprise.
Moon also sighed deeply.
Potter Harry, he is just an ordinary person. To use the words here, he is just a small shrimp who no one would care if he died.
But such a small shrimp was squeezed between the two giants, the Southern Territory and the Queen, because of himself.
In his eyes, this was probably the most desperate and helpless moment in his life.
His antics were all because he wanted to survive, just an ordinary person's instinct for survival.
"terribly sorry."
Those few words made the whole room quiet.
Mr. Porter was stunned where he was, and even forgot to cry.
what?
What did I just hear?
"Sir, what did you say?"
"I say I'm sorry, Mr. Potter."
Potter was stunned. The Duke of the Southland actually apologized to me? !
A nobleman who was almost the same as the emperor said this to a lowly character?!
"My Lord, I do not understand."
"I'm sorry to get you involved in this situation. No matter what, this is my problem, so I need to say sorry to you, Mr. Potter Harry."
Moon spoke very sincerely, and even at the end, Moon stood up, took off his hat and bowed slightly.
This made Mr. Porter stand up subconsciously.
This scene is so shocking.
In such a hierarchical world, this is almost a miracle!
It was also at this time that Mr. Porter finally understood why, although the Duke of the Southern Territory was a noble killer, butcher, and executioner, there were so many people around him who were willing to work for him.
How could such a person not attract others to work for him and follow him?
Mr. Porter didn't know what happened next. He just remembered these two or three sentences:
"Don't worry, I'm just going to follow your airship back to the imperial capital. I won't involve you in anything else."
"Also, once you return to the Imperial Capital, the Queen will definitely ask to see you."
"You don't have to think too much about this. Just say what you know. This way she won't make things difficult for you."
"By the way, the reason I came here is just to tell you this."
After the adult finished saying this, he left.
Seeing that only his room was left.
Mr. Porter couldn't help pinching his face.
It hurts, it really does.
So such a big shot actually came all the way for a small character like me, and did all these things and said all these words? !
All of this deeply shocked Potter and Harry.
-
At the Queen's request, Porter and his airship quickly arrived at the imperial capital.
Mr. Porter was taken directly to the imperial capital.
That evening, Mr. Porter set foot in the palace that he had only seen from afar all his life.
He glanced at the clean, white jade floor beneath his feet, then at the royal knights in front of him and on both sides.
Mr. Porter thought he would subconsciously lower his head timidly.
But when he thought of Moon, Mr. Porter straightened his back again.
Such a distinguished adult is willing to recognize my dignity as a human being.
How can I degrade myself?
I have to keep my head up and my chest out because I didn't do anything wrong!
I must live up to my personality and dignity that even that adult is willing to respect!
For the first time, Potter and Harry were not timid.
A maple leaf fell from the center of the courtyard.
In just a few blinks of an eye in the air, it changed from yellow to green, and then from green to yellow until it landed on the ground.
The Royal Knights took Mr. Porter to the audience hall.
Here, the queen, who had finished her official duties for the day, was already waiting.
When the magnificent door was pushed open, Porter saw the only ruler of this country.
Queen Ansha Baratheon.
"Come in."
The Queen's voice was so cold that Potter almost fell to his knees just by hearing it.
But he didn't kneel down after all.
Potter walked slowly into the hall, then walked faster and faster.
Behind him, the door of the audience hall suddenly closed, making the entire hall darker.
And even more oppressive.
Looking at the queen sitting on the throne.
Potter suppressed all his emotions and knelt on one knee at the steps in front of the throne.
Here, Potter noticed that in addition to the Queen, there were six other nobles, but he didn't seem to recognize them.
I think it should be a cabinet minister or a member of the House of Representatives.
Potter knelt down, and a noble asked directly:
"Potter Harry, why did you turn to that horrible butcher?"
This sentence made Mr. Potter's heart tremble slightly, but immediately, he lowered his head and said:
"I do not understand you, my Lord."
Moon asked Potter to tell the truth, but Potter, who had experienced it before, had his own ideas.
Then, what is the relationship between the Grand Duke and the Queen? This is the truth known to only a few people.
"You don't understand? How dare you say you don't understand?"
"We are here before Her Majesty the Queen's throne, and you dare to say you don't understand!"
Another noble shouted angrily.
There was no more ups and downs in Potter's heart.
He has learned what true respect is.
I saw what a true nobility is.
These guys are like wild dogs who only bark based on their bloodline and masters.
"You are the Silver Owl of the Empire, a lord canonized by the Queen. If you still think of yourself as a gentleman and a noble, then confess everything you know!"
Another new noble suddenly stood up and questioned Potter in an extremely oppressive voice.
Porter just knelt on one knee with humility and courtesy, and said word by word:
"My lord, I am the Silver Owl of the Empire, but I am only a commoner. I am not qualified to be called a gentleman. I am indeed a lord canonized by Her Majesty the Queen, but a lord without land and position is not recognized as a noble."
"So, sir, I am neither a gentleman nor a nobleman."
"Then, I still don't know what you are talking about. What do you mean by confessing the truth?"
The noble was slightly speechless.
It was the first time he heard someone call him that.
Another noble stood up, staring at Potter with sparkling eyes and said:
"You are the first person to come into contact with that girl. You are also the first person to come into contact with that executioner. What do you want to confess?"
"Potter Harry, look at His Majesty on the throne. If you still think you are a subject of the Empire, then tell His Majesty everything you know!"
Finally, he raised his head, looked down at Potter at his feet and said:
"In this case, even if you are just a lowly person with no status and no reputation, I think His Majesty will be able to forgive your sins."
"Forgive you for serving the Butcher and betraying the Empire."
"So, immediately tell us who your backers and accomplices are!"
If it was the old Potter Harry, he would have been so scared that he would have said everything.
But now, looking at the boots in front of him.
Potter, who couldn't see the other person's face, sneered from the bottom of his heart.
This is not a gentleman, this is not a nobleman, and there is no honor.
Fortunately, I know who are the truly honorable gentlemen and nobles.
"Your Majesty, I am indeed not a gentleman, nor a noble. But I have been a hunter for the Queen for twelve years, and was personally conferred the title of Silver Owl by Your Majesty."
"If we talk about backers, your Majesty is my backer. If we talk about comrades, then I can only be your Majesty's subordinate party."
As soon as these two sentences came out, even the queen on the throne raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Potter and Harry who were standing at the steps.
And Potter Harry looked up at the six nobles for the first time and said:
"So, please take back your remarks."
