The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1216: wake up

Views:

One hour after breakfast, when Kieran was perfecting his plan and thinking about whether there were any loopholes in it, he heard Mary's footsteps in his ears.

very hasty.

Then there was the same slightly hasty knock on the door.

Boom, boom, boom.

Qin Ran opened the door, and Mary walked in quickly, with a rare look of anger on the face of this underage princess.

She handed the letter in her hand to Qin Ran.

"This is a secret letter from Roque."

Said the underage princess.

Qin Ran unfolded the letter.

above like this writes

My Honorable Highness:

Your heroism on the battlefield is enough to make anyone surrender, and your brilliance can win the support of everyone, but some people cannot be called human beings.

They are domineering on weekdays, but they flee in times of crisis.

Now!

They came back again.

Not only do they want to get back their status, but they also want to reap the fruits of victory.

They threw olive branches at me.

I refused.

However, I believe that some people will not refuse.

The greed of the human heart is far more terrifying than your Highness imagined.

Please be alert.

Your vassal: Rock

Qin Ran quickly finished the letter.

Then, he looked at Mary with a smile on his face.

"It's what we expected, isn't it?"

Qin Ran said.

"Well, even if it was expected."

"But I'm still amazed at how shameless these guys are."

Mary nodded, with resentment in her tone.

For underage princesses, noble has always been a noble title.

She still remembers the first time her mother told her the word.

In winter in Swartburg, it was snowing heavily outside, and the fireplace inside the castle was filled with enough firewood, and the flames dispelled the severe cold.

She crawled on her mother's lap, listening to the clear and kind voice.

'True nobles not only have to abide by their duties, but also protect the civilians in their territory. They are the bravest knights when they wear battle armor, and the most polite people when they wear fine clothes. Their nobility comes from their kindness ,glory. '

'Mother, are you an aristocrat? '

'Yes. '

'That's great! I can inherit your identity! '

'That's too bad! If my daughter just blindly seeks the so-called inheritance, then the name of nobility will inevitably be tarnished. '

'Then, what should I do? '

'Learn, train, and constantly strengthen yourself, even if you don't need to inherit, you can still get a matching identity. '

It was precisely in order to obtain a 'matching identity' that Mary gritted her teeth and made rapid progress in her mother's teaching and training.

Before she left Swartburg, she always believed that nobles have a strong sense of honor, and when faced with difficulties, they can face them without hesitation.

But in fact

Hypocrisy, insidious, and despicable words are really not too much for some nobles.

Moreover, facing the army of prairie people, they fled faster than the civilians, which made the underage princess see clearly how different the nobles she knew were from the nobles in reality.

Seeing Mary's angry look, Qin Ran couldn't help but put his hand on top of her head.

"Nothing is set in stone."

"At the beginning of Warren's founding, those nobles who relied on military exploits and achievements to obtain noble status were no different from what your mother said."

"They were brave, tenacious and unafraid of danger."

"But that's just themselves. When it comes to their children and grandchildren, the superior living conditions far exceed the material comforts of ordinary people, and they have corroded their hearts."

Qin Ran said slowly.

"Is there no way to change it?"

The underage princess frowned and asked.

"Yes, of course."

"but… "

"That needs to be done by you."

"After all, you are Warren's queen."

Qin Ran laughed.

"2567, I hope you will rule Warren with me."

Said the underage princess.

"That's too difficult, I can't do it, you should do it."

"but me?"

"Of course to help you do something easier."

After saying that, Qin Ran walked out of the room.

The underage princess stared at Qin Ran's back for a moment.

Then, the clever princess thought of something, and her face immediately changed.

"2567, wait."

"We have a more secure way."

Mary shouted while chasing after Qin Ran.

"Yeah, there needs to be a more secure way."

"However, it's too slow."

"It's so slow that I can't wait."

Qin Ran didn't stop. On the contrary, he walked faster and faster. Beside him, a giant white wolf stepped out of the void. Its tall and straight figure was exuding extraordinary power under the sun. Following Qin Ran's order, his head let out a long howl.

Ah woo woo!

As the wolf howled, the giant white wolf began to run.

As soon as Qin Ran turned over, he rode on the white giant wolf and disappeared quickly.

Mary ran with all her strength, but compared with the speed of [Spirit of the White Wolf], it was not at the same level at all. She could only watch Kieran and the giant white wolf disappear.

However, Mary did not give up.

In other words, giving up is not in Mary's vocabulary at all.

Whew, wheeze.

The underage princess was panting heavily, and her footsteps became heavier and heavier. Although she regained her physical strength through the secret technique her mother taught her, compared with the consumption, it was really not enough.

At some point, Earl Shirin appeared beside Mary.

Looking at his distant cousin and seeing her stubborn appearance, he took a deep breath.

"Maybe I shouldn't say that."

"but… "

"I admire you."

"Your Excellency 2567 is far greater than we imagined."

"He's fighting against all of Warren again for you."

said the young earl softly.

He knew exactly what Qin Ran was going to do.

Know more about the consequences of doing so.

But because of this, he admired Qin Ran even more.

Because this is what he can't do anyway.

"No wonder he can become the white wolf of this term."

"Only such a person can become a white wolf."

"It was rumored that the 'King of the Grassland' was a White Wolf. I still believed it, but I was really blind."

The young count sighed.

"Yes, yes!"

"You are blind to say what you just said."

It was a little difficult for the princess who was panting to speak, but she tried her best to speak clearly.

The young earl looked at the underage princess in confusion.

"Ant, against the entire Warren?"

"I am here!"

"How could he be against the entire Warren!"

The underage princess said word by word.

The young earl was taken aback. He looked at his distant relative in disbelief, and it seemed that it was only at this time that he clearly realized what kind of person he was.

The young earl was taken aback.

After more than ten seconds, Mary walked another hundred meters before the young earl came back to his senses.

He looked at the immature and stubborn back, bowed slightly, and spoke in an inaudible voice.

"Of course, you're right..."

"Your Majesty." 8)
