Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 948: Crown Prince

It was night in a second-rate restaurant in Dawn Castle. Originally, with his status, even if he were to show off the highest standards of luxury when meeting someone as noble as Ryan, there was no need for him to be so arrogant. After all, this trip to the north was a matter of honor and disgrace. No matter how much it cost, it was still worth it. But Edward gave him such an address, and he didn't ask why he came so directly.

He only brought Nelly, who was close to him, but Nelly changed into a new set of clothes. Otherwise, it would be too noticeable if he wore that cloak to enter and leave the restaurant. There were no swords or blades on Nelly's body. In any case, their Green Dragon Knight's Vast Ocean Blue Wave was originally a method of condensing power to form. Whether they wore weapons or not did not have much effect on them. However, Nelly's appearance was extremely destructive. Even though he chose neutral clothes to conceal his beauty, it still made the men in the restaurant lose their minds.

The most deadly thing was that a woman like Nelly, who was a man who wished he could hide in his house, was standing quietly behind a silver-haired man. The men in the restaurant couldn't help but curse in their hearts for wasting heaven and earth.

Ellen remained indifferent, while Nelly acted as if she was righteous. When Ryan arrived, he discovered that the two people in the restaurant had already become the focus of the room. He smiled, straightened his collar, and walked slowly.

Seeing Rhine, Alan smiled and stood up, inviting him to his seat. Then, he made a gesture and a waiter began to serve wine and dishes. When Ryan sat down, he "accidentally" glanced at Nelly. His smile froze and he regained his senses for a moment. "I thought I had seen enough beauties. Now that I saw the one behind Lord Alan, I realized that not only was I wrong, I was also wrong."

Nelly calmly accepted this flattery that was neither light nor heavy. Allen smiled and said, "I just arrived today. I'm in a hurry. Please don't take offense for arranging such a place to meet you."

"The most important thing is to see Lord Alan," Ryan said with a smile. "It doesn't matter where we meet. Besides, with the young lady behind you present, it would be a great honor to see her."

"No matter how pleasant you say it, I can't give Nelly to you." Alan said directly.

"Nelly?" '"Lord Alan is straightforward. That's right, I'm just a middleman. I can't afford to be Lord Alan's salute," Ryan said after a moment of shaking his head and smiling.

Alan shook his head and said, "You misunderstand. I don't mean to underestimate Mr. Rhine. On the contrary, I'm grateful that Mr. Rhine will pave the way for me, a man from the South. Nelly is an important person to me. Let alone you, I won't give her even if the Emperor asks for it."

Only then did Ryan say "Oh", and his expression wasn't as sour as before. Whether Alan was sincere or pretentious, he still cared about his face. With this young man's current power, it was enough for him to do this.

"Baron Edward mentioned to me that Lord Alan had the intention of going north. This is exactly what one of my lords wanted. He wanted to be a facilitator, but now it saves me a lot of effort," Rhine said after the episode.

"Who is the lord above Mr. Rhine?"

Ryan smiled and said, "I won't hide anything from you now." When I saw you at the banquet in Earl Orban, you were just a baron. Although I have the intention to get to know you, if you were to judge by your accomplishments at that time, then the lord above me would at most be a marquis. "But now it's different. Lord Alan, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. His Highness the Second Prince, Julian, wants to get to know you well."

He wasn't as overjoyed or shocked as Ryan had imagined. Alan only said "oh", and he looked "this is more like it", which made Ryan smile bitterly in his heart. Was it possible that if he only moved out a marquis, he would still have to be sent away by this young man?

It was inconceivable to think about it.

Allen smiled and said, "It's rare for His Highness to be able to see me from such a distance."

"The imperial family spies all over the country, the empire every move, how can escape our emperor's eyes. Although this side was indeed a bit far from the Northern Capital, the Imperial Clan was still clear about any major movements. Not to mention the distance, let's just say half a year ago, there was an abnormal phenomenon on the Wild Highlands of the border, and there was someone specially assigned to investigate. "As for the recent, hey, Lord Alan's killing of an outsider expert is truly impressive," Ryan gave a thumbs up.

Ellen's finger, which was holding the knife, unconsciously exerted a little strength. He was surprised that the news of the King Serpent base sending a signal to Ada Hua had indeed attracted the attention of the empire. He also admired Edward's foresight. The empire's spies were really everywhere. For example, this Rhine in front of him might be one of the eyes. It wasn't surprising that such a person was loyal to the so-called Second Prince. Who wouldn't have multiple identities like them?

'"When His Highness asked about the situation in the South, I actually mentioned you. However, at that time, His Highness' achievements were not enough to enter His Highness' eyes, so he put it aside. It wasn't until His Highness exiled the outsiders and killed the opponent's experts that His Highness truly saw it in his eyes. Lord Alan, His Highness asked me to bring a sentence."

"Please speak."

"Your Highness said that the day your Excellency stepped foot in North Capital Oliska will be the day you become an Earl."

Alan nodded, "Sincere."

"Naturally." '"Of course, the Count is just what you deserve, Your Highness. His Highness said that as long as your Excellency is strong, he can even get you a Marquis." Ryan still didn't see any shock on Alan's face. While admiring the young man's maturity, he said, "Of course, the Count is just what you deserve."

Alan laughed, "So it seems that my journey north will not go so smoothly. However, I am curious as to what His Highness Julian sees in me. Please let me know in advance so that I can do my homework properly. It would be embarrassing if I did not see His Highness and put on the wrong front."

Rhine laughed and said, "Lord Alan is so funny." "Battle power, that's right. Your Highness is not interested in Lord Alan's ability to govern the territory, nor is it your war strategy. Instead, it's the simplest battle power. If you don't have the saber to kill an outsider expert, then even if your territory doubles, it won't enter Your Highness's eyes."

"I'm not afraid to tell you that there's going to be a storm in the Northern Capital." Ryan smiled mysteriously and said, "Because our emperor is planning to appoint a crown prince."
