"My lord? What's the matter

Fendal noticed an unusual breath. Although Joshua's gaze was only for a moment, it brought heavy pressure around him. He asked subconsciously.

"Why is there a group of elite monks of the church in Morley palace?"

Gesturing to the red haired knight to continue to lead the way, Joshua asked in a crisp and clear tone of doubt: "they are very powerful. More than half of them are great friars who have reached the golden realm. They are enough to be a landlord. This is unusual."

"Ah, they are the ambassadors sent by the church during the previous celebration. Naturally, they are very powerful. The head of the Knight Order of the hammer of freedom, robzek, is a paladin of extreme intention. However, the Lord is discussing something with his Majesty in the main hall."

When he met the question he could answer, fendal couldn't help smiling and nodding. This handsome red haired knight is really a hearty person: "some time ago, countries and forces all over the mainland sent envoys to meet the emperor, and the church is one of them. But now most of the envoys have gone back, But they still stay here as if there was something else. "

Speaking of this, fendal's tone could not help but bring a trace of regret: "count, it's a pity that you didn't attend the celebration. It may not be a carnival once in hundreds of years. Many ancient families have come to the imperial capital... Many people are also interested in you."

"Thank you... As for the celebration, I'm sorry, but I can't help it if I can't go."

Nodded, Joshua said he had understood each other's identity, as for the celebration, because he wanted to save the world, so he really couldn't go.

Anyway, even though the soldiers still have doubts about the familiar smell of the woman in the center of the team, they have arrived at the black swan palace.

Walking out of the corridor, there is a garden full of flowers, and the black swan palace is just opposite this garden. It is an ancient palace, which has a history of hundreds of years. Most of them are in their early twenties and under thirty years old. At this time, they should be learning some books about aristocracy, or about supernatural power, In the corner, several middle-aged people in mage's robes are reading some heavy magic books and transcribing some important data.

Originally, the atmosphere in the rest room was harmonious. Apart from the identity of the staff, it was no different from the ordinary library reading room. Even some young nobles were whispering and laughing with each other, which did not affect the work of those busy mages.

But the arrival of Joshua broke that.

When the soldiers just arrived here, the maid who led the way bowed in a hurry and then left as if she were running away. The rest of the people in the lounge also felt something cold climbing on their own back. They could not help but turn their heads and look at the door.

"Count Radcliffe!"

A young nobleman who recognized Joshua could not help but exclaim in a low voice, "why is he in the imperial capital now? It's like I'm missing during the celebration. I can't find anyone at all! "

In fact, almost everyone present knew Joshua, and with a few exceptions, they had at least heard the name of the soldier.

Because of the Dragon slaughtering and the killing of a great devil in the imperial capital, Joshua's reputation is even louder than he imagined. Originally, he should be in the same class as these young nobles, but now, the soldiers can be compared with their parents, or even far beyond, After all, most of these young nobles have not yet touched the edge of the golden barrier, but the soldiers have been confirmed by the Emperor himself, and they are the talents who can advance the legend in the future.

These are two worlds.

Not only that, they also vaguely felt that the pressure on Joshua was more and more heavy, and the atmosphere was more and more solidified. With the soldiers approaching, the young nobles felt that they were slowly sinking into the deep sea, and the feeling of gradually expanding water pressure was about to suffocate them.

The soldier didn't care about this. He just found a place casually, and then sat down with Ying and Lin, ready to wait for Nostradamus to finish sorting out the ancient books.

"I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well today..."

While Joshua sat down, a young nobleman who was close to him stood up. He swallowed his saliva. His bare skin was covered with goose bumps, and his voice seemed to tremble a little: "friends, forgive me for being rude. I'm really sick, Today's party, I'll go first... "

With that, he picked up his book and walked out quickly. While passing by the seat where Joshua was sitting, he subconsciously made a long detour.

"So..."

"Me too...""Actually, I..."

After a moment of silence, many people stood up. For them, the whole lounge hall was getting dim bit by bit. Although the glow discharge lamp was still flashing, the light could not shine through the shadow of the heart. So when they saw someone go first, they subconsciously followed, Even the whereabouts praised the first to leave and gave them an excuse.

Before long, almost all the nobles were gone, and the mages on the other side also felt something wrong.

"... for the rest of the work, go back to the research room. It's really cold here."

With a murmur, a middle-aged mage called his partner. They left the rest room with books. They could still hear their complaints about the heating system of the library.

In this way, the rest of the people also left the lounge with a variety of excuses.

So far, three minutes after Joshua came to the lounge, the hall was empty.

"... didn't I bring magic equipment?"

Looking at the empty rest room, Joshua was silent for a while, then frowned, turned his head helplessly, and said to Ying Helin: "the effect of fog pocket watch is very strong. Before we were on the Commercial Avenue, those passers-by didn't notice the pressure on me, but why was everyone so nervous about me when we arrived at Morley palace?"

"... probably because, master, you were just passing by before, and those passers-by naturally didn't have time to notice the pressure on you..."

Lin thought for a moment, and some of them were not sure. "The nobles and mages just now all saw your face, and they all knew your identity, So the attention is focused on you... Because of this, the effect of fog pocket watch is weakened? "

After listening to Lin's guess, Joshua nodded slightly, but before he spoke, another voice came from a corner of the room: "good explanation, but it didn't say anything at all."

A tall figure came out from the corner covered by the bookshelf. His voice was low and clear: "no matter how the beast reduces its sense of existence, it's also a beast. You can't expect people not to fear the night leopard and the half asleep lion."

"Not to mention you, Joshua van Radcliffe, the man who claims to kill demons with his bare hands."
