Chapter 4105 Miss Nan: Danger?
In fact, although the official announcement of Raphael's return has not been made in the past few days, the news has still been spread.
After all, the [Ether Galaxy] has already been inherited, so it's easy to find out about it. No matter how much you try to cover it up, it's useless.
While ordinary people might not be aware of Marindo, it's practically common knowledge within aristocratic circles.
After all, he is one of the legitimate heirs of the royal family, and the child of Princess [Otina], one of the jewels of the empire. The Imperial Royal Family Association had already sent people to welcome him long ago.
Unexpectedly, upon arrival, I learned that Prince Raphael had already been led directly into the Princess's residence by Cecil.
What can I say?
Lucia and Utena are twin sisters, and the princess has a naturally close relationship with Raphael.
"Well then, my friend Melon, until next time!"
Marco Polo and Ham Hank had already said their goodbyes; the father and son were not entitled to stay at the Princess's residence. Their families were also based on their ancestral planet, Marindo, and this was the perfect time for them to go there.
"I'll make the arrangements." Melon Fox smiled slightly.
Perhaps he should indeed contact Leonardo privately... Although he was away on official business, he was quite aware of what had happened in [Marindo] today, after all, besides his close friend, he also had a large group of cronies.
The news of Princess Anle publicly announcing her real boyfriend has been widely circulated for some time.
In Mellon Fox's view, this must be extremely difficult for Leonardo DiCaprio, who has already boarded the giant ship of "Peace and Lesbianism".
Melon Fox was well aware of His Highness Anle's fickle nature, and Leonardo had already spent the longest time with Princess Anle, so it was probably about time he reached his limit.
Now that I've sided with the Eldest Princess, perhaps I can glean some information about His Highness Anle from Leonardo?
He really wants to improve!
……
There was no grand welcome; everything in the princess's residence was as usual. Cecil simply brought Raphael alone to Princess Lucia's presence.
The absence of [September] and Miss Nan made Raphael somewhat flustered. Fortunately, she was wearing a complete [Star Creation] outfit, which prevented her from losing her composure.
"Don't worry, I'll be with you."
Through a special spiritual resonance, the earring transmitted the voice of his godmother, Miss Nan, which made Raphael feel somewhat at ease.
Raphael was momentarily stunned upon seeing Princess Lucia.
[September] She was shown videos of her parents, and she knew that Lucia and her mother were twins... but when she actually saw them, she still felt dazed.
Perhaps because he had been looking forward to it, Raphael naturally felt a sense of closeness to this princess.
“You don’t seem like Utina; you’re more like that timid, bookish nerd from Asprinde,” Princess Lucia said coldly. “I don’t like that at all.”
Instead of the excitement of reuniting with loved ones, Princess Lucia felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, and she seemed to see right through Raphael.
Don't listen to this stupid woman, she's just showing off...
—Sit down, pretend you didn't hear, and pick up your teacup…
Raphael felt a little relieved as he heard Miss Nan's familiar voice ringing in his ears or mind, and tried his best to follow Miss Nan's instructions.
Thanks to the complete set of [Star Creation] clothing, there were no mistakes or omissions.
Therefore, in Lucia's view, this niece whom she was meeting for the first time did not seem to be overwhelmed by her gaze... A hint of appreciation was hidden in the princess's eyes.
She has a bit of that charm she had when she was young.
Cecil had already left, leaving the two of them alone.
Seeing Raphael sitting quietly, Lucia suddenly spoke up: "Tell me about your experiences over the years. I want to hear it from you yourself."
She didn't mention anything about Angelica dahurica.
Although it has been confirmed that Raphael is the child of Ottina and Asprinde, he was lost in the Void since childhood.
She was unaware of Raphael's experiences over the years, and even less aware of his character, so it was not advisable to consider future arrangements for Raphael at this time.
At Xie Nan's instruction, Raphael slowly said, "During the escape, I heard from [September] that my body suffered irreversible genetic defects due to interference from different void-side laws..."
Since we're going to talk about experiences, we should start from the very beginning.
But basically, it's just that a certain scoundrel says something, and Raphael, the tool, repeats it.
Rather than Raphael making contact with Lucia, it would be more accurate to say that Xie Nan was using Raphael to confront the imperial princess.
Lucia listened quietly, occasionally interjecting with a question about something trivial.
She had already learned some things from her previous conversation with Bai Zhi, which now served as corroborating evidence... She wouldn't completely believe it either; the small world called "Azure" on the "Mythological Side" simply couldn't be found in the short term.
Ever since Bai Zhi mentioned this small world, she had already sent people to investigate. But even with the help of the Secret Society, they only found out that this small world had recently been promoted to a Golden World and, for unknown reasons, had broken away from the territory of the Heavenly Court and Heavenly Palace.
The current coordinates are unknown.
This conversation lasted for an entire afternoon.
Raphael felt like an emotionless parrot, his throat getting dry from talking so much.
"...So, the world of [Azure] is actually a game between [Heavenly Court and Heavenly Palace] and [Void Spirit Mountain]?" The Princess tapped her fingers lightly on the armrest.
In Raphael's account, September is portrayed as a loyal servant who, in the power struggle between the two giants on the mythological side, has worked tirelessly for tens of thousands of years to free Raphael from his prison.
Of course, during this process, I inevitably received help from some benefactors.
To Princess Lucia's utter surprise, the benefactor who helped Raphael was none other than the "Star Witch," a figure with a terrible reputation within the Science faction and wanted by the entire Science faction!
The empire's eldest princess was indeed taken aback!
He almost lost his composure.
The Star Witch has simply too many glorious achievements on the scientific side...
"No wonder we haven't heard from the Star Witch for so long; she's hiding in the Mythology faction..."
Lucia suddenly realized, and then a sharp glint flashed in her eyes.
—This witch is the public enemy of the entire [science side]!
"Do you know how dangerous it is for someone of your status to associate with the Star Witch?" Lucia said in a deep voice. "You even brought her to Marindor?"
Raphael's heart skipped a beat, but he remained unusually calm. "Does that mean I'm not in danger if I don't have her with me... Your Highness, or rather, my dear aunt?"
Lucia's pupils narrowed slightly; she felt a surge of anger, but ultimately suppressed it.
His parents were murdered, and he was forced to flee shortly after birth. His genes collapsed, and he had to undergo a ten-thousand-year-long cryogenic sleep treatment to barely maintain his life, but he could only wake up occasionally...
Struggling to survive in the isolated and utterly alone world of the "Mythological Side"...
He had barely returned when he was attacked...
She harbored resentment, distrusted the Imperial Court, and was naturally hostile—all of which Lucia could understand.
"You've had a tough time all these years." Lucia's gaze softened slightly.
She was just assertive, not heartless. Moreover, she already felt guilty towards Raphael deep down, so how could she really harden her heart?
This was her beloved sister's only child...
“I don’t want to hear anyone say ‘thank you for your hard work’ to me,” Raphael said coldly. “I’ve come back not to take back what is rightfully mine, but to find out who exactly harmed my parents back then.”
Ah Nan had already drafted the script for an imperial princess's revenge on the way here. Although it was old-fashioned, it had to be said that it was the most effective script to create a deep bond between Raphael and Lucia.
As mentioned in September, Lucia and Utena have a good relationship.
How bad can the relationship between twins be?
However, in Xie Nan's opinion, Raphael's father, that grandson of the [Asprinde] emperor, was quite useless for not being able to eat the twins.
"About what happened back then..." Lucia hesitated for a moment, then quickly shook her head, "I don't plan to tell you for now."
Raphael frowned. "Is it because of this coronation ceremony?"
“You don’t need to overthink it.” Lucia shook her head. “Although I had my doubts before, after so many years of investigation… they can basically clear their name.”
Upon hearing this, Xie Nan, who was "remotely controlling" Raphael, was taken aback.
—Isn't it that seductive and shameless Empress Fenghua?
The empire's waters are deeper than she imagined.
Who else is there?
For what?
This is tantamount to offending the royal families of two major human empires on the scientific side at the same time.
A third-party [Mechanical Divine Court]?
Those multifaceted monsters are really that powerful...
While rapidly analyzing the power struggles among the various factions on the scientific side, Xie Nan, still in the spaceship's lounge, slowly said, "Do you know who orchestrated the assassination on Aether Star?"
……
"Do you know who orchestrated the assassination on [Ether Star]?"
Upon hearing this, Lucia shook her head slightly, saying with a hint of helplessness, "I have absolutely no clue at the moment."
Raphael immediately sneered, "It seems that even if I step into the royal court, I am not necessarily safe."
God knows how she dared to sneer and mock—she was about to pee herself!
—Mom, please, have some decency, I can't take it anymore!
"No one dares to touch you on my turf!" This seemed to instantly ignite the suppressed anger in the princess's heart. She stared sharply at Raphael, "You may have resentment in your heart, but this is not the attitude you should have towards me."
Raphael said calmly, "I'm a little tired from the long journey. Please allow me to rest, Aunt."
“You…” Lucia took a deep breath and regained her composure. “Cecil, take her to rest.”
Raphael gave a standard bow and walked out without looking back.
Looking at that young and delicate figure, yet seemingly from yesterday, Lucia suddenly felt a little dazed... The princess couldn't help but reveal an extremely amazed smile.
"I wonder who this child takes after..."
She carefully recalled what Raphael had just said.
"Bai Zhi? Who is that?"
"It seems one of the clones went missing. I was quite puzzled at the time, but with [Azure]'s advancement imminent, I had no time to worry about it..."
"So they were taken away by someone from the [magic side]? Have you seen this person before?"
At least for now, Princess Lucia cannot determine whether Raphael knows Levi Titus.
She is still investigating this [Levi Titus]... In the past two days, there has been a lot of new information about Livi.
He actually became Li Guo's honored guest, and even publicly announced his identity, directly attending the banquet of [Babilon]... In other words, Li Guo may have also discovered the existence of Bai Zhi?
"This is very abnormal."
A hint of doubt flashed in Lucia's eyes.
The key point is that after Bai Zhi left that day, [Levi Titus] did not take the initiative to come to her door—she had clearly indicated that she was willing to pay a sufficient reward.
"Perhaps I should go and meet this [Li Wei]."
Having made up her mind, the eldest princess immediately took action.
A maid in purple robes quickly entered after being summoned.
Lucia said calmly, "Have someone make arrangements. I need to go to the trade fair in [Marindo] to inspect the work..."
……
……
“Well then, Your Highness Raphael, I shall take my leave now,” Cecil said respectfully. “The Princess has already made strict preparations here, and you may contact me at any time if you have any instructions.”
"Ah."
Raphael nodded slightly, maintaining a cool and aloof demeanor.
But after Cecil left...
"Oh my god, that scared me to death!!"
Raphael knelt down at lightning speed, feeling as if his anus was about to burst open.
This is the royal court, the former residence of Princess Utina, which has always been maintained... Raphael arrived and moved in immediately.
She looked at Ah Nan's godmother with a resentful yet pitiful gaze, who was lying carefree on the sofa. "You have no idea how terrifying her gaze was back then..."
"It's nothing!" Xie Nan waved his hand casually. "A woman who is several thousand years old and has never been given flowers or been pampered by a man, just consider her to have some kind of menstrual irregularity."
[September] said calmly, "You've directly revealed your identity. Aren't you afraid Lucia will come after you?"
"I was afraid she wouldn't come looking for me," Xie Nan chuckled. "Do you know why the three great empires hate me so much?"
[September] Quiet and silent.
Raphael subconsciously said, "Isn't it because of your abilities, Godmother, that they are all wary of you?"
To be fair, the ability of [Star Creation] is indeed a bug for the [science side].
"That's because I've never agreed to join either of them," Xie Nan said calmly. "If you can't have it, destroy it, understand?"
Raphael was indeed impressed by Xie Nan's act, and subconsciously revealed a hint of admiration.
Putting aside the godmother's terrible personality, after learning about her achievements on the "science side," she is indeed formidable.
“Indeed, your abilities are of great use to the entire [Science Side]. Cooperating with you will greatly promote technological breakthroughs, and eliminating you is not the optimal solution.” [September] asked directly, “So, what do you plan to do next? Cooperate with Lucia?”
"Do nothing," Xie Nan said calmly. "Just wait. Those who are impatient will lose."
He appeared calm and collected, as if everything was under control, but inside he was panicking terribly...
—The boss actually came too [Marindo]?
—Oh my god…
When Lucia asked Raphael who Bai Zhi was, Miss Nan keenly noticed this.
Who knows why the boss suddenly came over?
She didn't receive any prior warning, did she?
Could it be that they found out I was hiding [Wild]?
--hiss……
Danger!!!
