Chapter 238

“We don’t need so polite between us.”

Locke waved his hand and looked Nora up and down before joking, “You finally look like a princess now.”

Nora smiled and said, “By contrast, I prefer the dress-up when I get along with you.”

“Your Highness, what brings you here?”

Locke asked with a smile.

Nora’s face turned slightly serious and said, “In order to celebrate this victory, King City will hold a grand banquet. I’m here to invite you on behalf of my father. This time, Lister has made a great contribution. I think you will definitely get a higher title.”

Title?

Locke frowned slightly. “My practice has entered a bottleneck. I may not have time to go to King City recently.”

The title was not very attractive to him. Icacia Continent respected strength, whether it is a title or a peerage, it was fleeting and could not withstand a blow in front of the strong. Instead of wasting time attending any banquet, it would be better to practice and make a breakthrough.

Nora seemed to have expected Locke’s reaction. She added slowly, “Of course, in addition to the title, there will be other rewards, such as gold coins, magic crystals, and other things.”

Hearing this, Locke dusted himself off. He cleared his throat and said, “Although I don’t have much time recently, as a practitioner, I can’t sit down and map it out. I need to go out more often. Maybe I can meet the opportunity to break through the bottleneck. Since His Majesty invited me, I naturally need to go there.”

Nora didn’t expose Locke. She smiled and said, “Okay, then get ready. We’ll leave tomorrow.”

As she said, her face froze and became serious. “Now, there is the last question.”

Locke was also surprised to see her so serious. Was there anything important now?

Looking at Locke, Nora asked seriously, “Where is my dear teacher?”

‘Thanatos?

Locke rolled his eyes and pointed at the practice ground behind the castle. “He should be reading over there. You can go find him yourself.”

“Reading at the practice ground?”

Looking in the direction pointed by Locke, Nora was confused.

Shrugging his shoulders, Locke said, “Who knows?”

After knowing the location of Thanatos, Nora no longer care about Locke and trotted toward the practice ground.

Seeing that Nora couldn’t wait to run to the practice ground, Locke rolled his eyes helplessly. Both of them hung up on each other. One went to the former practice ground to comfort his lovesickness, and the other rushed to his side when she came back. He was a little anxious about them when he looked at the scene.

In the blink of an eye, the second day had come.

As Athena’s strength had been improved, so she needed to practice in seclusion to adapt to the new power and couldn’t be together with Locke. After some inquiries, no gods wanted to go to King City. So Locke had no choice but to go to King City alone.

In fact, Locke didn’t worry much about his own safety. With his current strength, he could almost deal with an ordinary level-7 master. Therefore, as long as he didn’t encounter a very powerful level-7 or level-8 master, he wouldn’t encounter any danger.

In the morning, after breakfast, Locke and Nora set out early.

Locke found carefully that after last night, Nora always wore a faint happy smile on her face. Was there any substantial progress in the relationship between Nora and Thanatos last night?

Locke felt a little suspicious. Unknowingly, they arrived at the door of the teleportation site.

However, at the door of the teleportation site, in addition to Nora and the people she brought, Locke also saw another two people, Artemis and Thanatos.

However, Nora had a clear look on her face, as if she had already known that Thanatos would go with them.

“Miss Artemis, what are you doing?”

Locke asked tentatively. He hoped that Artemis was just passing by. Of course, judging from her posture, he knew that the possibility was very small.

Artemis slowly walked toward Locke. She almost pressed on Locke, stretched out her slender fingers, raised Locke’s chin, and said softly, “Of course, I’m going to King City to have a look. What’s wrong, little Locke? Are you afraid of me?”

Locke gave a shiver and took a step back without being noticed. He forced a smile on his face and said, “Miss Artemis, you are beautiful and charming. It’s my honor to be with you.”

He understood that Thanatos would go to King City together. He could see that there was something fishy between Nora and Thanatos, but Artemis…

After flirting with Locke, Artemis turned around and walked into the teleportation site. “Let’s go.”

Now that things had come to this, Locke could only accept the fact. Without wasting any time, he entered the teleportation site soon.

Although Lister was far away from King City, they used teleportation sites all the way. At the same time, Nora followed them. They moved very fast. In the evening of the second day, they arrived at King City.

As the white light disappeared, Locke finally saw the scene in front of him clearly.

The first thing he saw was a row of tall buildings thirty or forty meters high. They were arranged in an orderly manner, showing the prosperity of the city.

They walked out of the teleportation site and came to the street outside. Looking around, the street was paved with flat green stones, as wide as twenty meters. People were coming and going on the street, and they were in luxurious clothes, and naturally have a noble aura on them. High-end hotels, restaurants, and tea shops were everywhere on both sides.

Two carriages were already waiting at the door of the teleportation site. Under the astonished gaze of Locke, Nora took Thanatos to the first carriage. Then, Locke had no choice but to get into the second carriage with Artemis.

The carriage was moving slowly on the street. Seeing the Royal logo on it, the people on the way were very sensible and dodged.

In the carriage, Artemis was lying comfortably on the mink blanket, grabbing a grape with one hand. While eating the grape, she looked at Locke with a smile.

A peerless beauty stared at him like this. Even Locke thought he had strong willpower, he could not help but feel a tingle in his scalp.

Taking a deep breath, Locke decided to do something else to distract himself.

Slowly closing his eyes, his divine consciousness spread out. He wanted to have a good look at the most prosperous city of Grimm Kingdom.
