The mage looked at the Cang lion king with some doubts. Indeed, what the grey robe represents in the secular world is not only magic, but also the trouble matching its powerful power. But cheese felt that what was in the eyes of this man was not fear, but some more dangerous emotion. Where have I offended the king of the grey lion? The mage asked himself this, but soon, the man who was puzzled by cheese explained the reason why he was hostile to the mage.


    "I heard that you protected Lothar and defeated Duke Harold at the trial of honor, didn''t you?" The king''s yellow eyes made the mage step back unconsciously. His feet hit the seat behind him and made a dull noise. Heather saw this scene, instinctively wanted to stand up and stop the Lord of the grey lion''s further action, but the action of the female knight was stopped by Atticus. At the same time, the Grand Knight also reached out to the others to show that he did not want to be impulsive. He knew that the king would not really hurt cheese.


    The mage was touched by the pain on his leg, and his brain suddenly woke up. Cheese suddenly realized that although the man in front of him was the king of a country, he was just a mortal in front of the grey robed mage. He had no need to be afraid of him. So the cheese straightened his collar and replied in a respectful but not humble tone, "it is, your majesty. Sir Rosa is my friend, and I don''t think it''s wrong for me to prove his innocence. "


    "Hum" the king, like a lion, snorted coldly and went back to his throne and sat down with his hands on the wooden handrails. Anyone familiar with the king knows that his undulating chest and dangerous light in his eyes mean that he is on the verge of anger. But the anger didn''t break out after all. The king''s breath gradually eased down. He looked at the cheese not far away from him and said.


    "Sit down, young wizard. I apologize for my impoliteness. Harold''s death should not be blamed on you. It was the damned rats who took him from us The king''s tone is a little decadent. It seems that the death of the Great Duke of Blood Axe has really caused a great blow to him.


    "In fact, my majesty, I''m afraid it''s not the rat man''s fault." Cheese continued to stand. When he mentioned the death of Harold III, the mage''s face was somewhat cloudy. "Those rat people are your people, they are just infected by the plague. Those who are really responsible for the death of Duke Harold and all the soldiers and the people of the grey lion are those who spread the plague


    "The disseminator of the plague? It sounds as if you''ve got something already, right? " The king inquired, of course, that he knew that the crazy rat people were also, or had been, their own people. If they could find the originator of the plague to avenge them, the king would not miss this opportunity.


    "I''ve found some clues, but they''re not enough. That''s why I asked Lord Atticus to bring me to you, your majesty The mage said, bowing slightly, "I hope you can answer my conjectures and assumptions about this country. This can greatly speed up the process of my work and minimize the suffering of the grey lion


    "It sounds like a very noble reason, er,..."


    "Cheese, your majesty."


    The king shrugged. "Of course, Mr. cheese. Your reason is very noble. If you are really acting for this reason, I think I must give you my full help. "


    The king''s words made several people present happy, they were very happy to see things go smoothly. But the grey robed mage and the iron Knight did not show a relaxed look on their faces, because they noticed a prerequisite in the king''s words, "if".


    "You don''t trust me?" Cheese is not so much a question as a statement. Obviously, the mage''s eyebrows wrinkled, but soon relaxed again. Anyway, the king of the grey lion had reasons and positions to question his purpose, "all the help I can offer is based on your trust. If you have doubts about me, I have no way to prove my intention. "


    At this time, Atticus also stood up and defended the cheese, "Your Majesty, please forgive my rudeness. But I would like to swear by my knight badge that this master cheese maker is an ally worthy of our trust. " Heather echoed, "Mr. cheese and his companions have saved my life more than once, and I''m willing to vouch for them, whether in iron fort or in turbidite."


    The king did not speak immediately. His eyes swept over the faces of the two knights, especially on the iron rule between the long waists of the great knight. He knew that the sword made Atticus not be deceived. It is not for no reason that the paladins of the grey Lion Kingdom have been the most reliable admonishments of the king.


    "I see. You two vouch for this gentleman, so he is not a wizarding man." The king raised his hand, motioned for them to sit down, and turned his head to cheese again. "Please forgive me for my suspicions. In fact, just two days ago, the black cat once visited here. Although with my early adventure experience, the lady didn''t take anything away, but..." There is no doubt that the black cat in the king''s mouth is a member of the witch group headed by kuila, and it is reasonable that the witches will be interested in the king.


    "I understand your caution. Very few people can meet another caster so calmly after being visited by a witch. " Cheese lowered his head to show his respect."But I was still won by them, didn''t I? Lothar was recalled to Wangdu without my knowledge, and Harold was sent out to try Lothar without my knowledge. The witches have got what they want and what I win is not important to them


    "No one can master everything, sire. Please leave the things in the dark to the people in the dark. And I believe that my friends and I will be more powerful in the shadow than the black cat that harasses you. So you don''t have to worry about something like that, I promise. "


    After getting the assurance from the mage, the king nodded with satisfaction.


    "Please remember your promise, Mr. cheese."


    "Of course. Well, may I ask you those questions now? About the secrets hidden in this kingdom. "


    The Lord of the grey lion leaned himself into the wooden throne. His deep eyes flashed with a look of thinking. The air in the hall of the throne was stagnant because of his silence. For a long time, he began to speak.


    "It''s secret, but it hasn''t been discovered for long. I thought that, at least until Andrea and I died, this secret should be safe, and by the time we die, the city of molten iron should be able to deal with all the threats. Unexpectedly, only a few decades later, they found here. Oh, it''s ironic. We even swore not to tell this secret to anyone except the next king. "
