Chapter 487: The Beginning of the Rematch I
Dean heard the shout of the captain of the guard just a moment ago, and the door of his captain's room was pushed open the next moment——
"Dean, great work!"
With such words, the chief guard of the Grand Duke straightly pulled Dean out of the chair, hugged Dean, and patted Dean on the back vigorously.
Clap clap!
The considerable strength in the back made Dean and the Grand Duke's bodyguard stick even tighter.
The heights of the two were about the same, so when they hugged each other, Dean's chin naturally rested on the shoulder of the Grand Duke's bodyguard, and the same was true of the Grand Duke's bodyguard.
Each other's breathing is so clear and audible.
However, there is no charm at all.
The jumping and jumping head of the Grand Duke's bodyguard brought only a kind of pure joy and happiness.
The trace of strangeness that just rose from the bottom of Dean's heart disappeared instantly.
"Dean, do you know? Fendel's face turned blue when he heard that you beheaded nine silver-level high-level experts including Esirofa!"
As if recalling the scene at that time again, the chief guard of the Grand Duke couldn't help laughing.
"Dean, you should take advantage of this preliminary competition to slaughter all the silver experts in Gaosai..."
"Irene!"
Before the chief guard could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Grand Duke Jade who walked in.
Seeing the emerald Duke who came in with an unhappy expression, the chief guard couldn't help sticking out his tongue, let go of Dean, stood directly behind Dean, and pushed Dean lightly.
Undoubtedly, this is a call for help.
Faced with such a request for help. Naturally, Dean would not ignore it.
"Your Highness!"
Step forward. Dean saluted.
"Dean. Good job!"
Grand Duke Emerald immediately supported Dean's shoulder,
Looking at Dean with a smile, even in the emerald green eyes, there was a smile that couldn't be concealed.
There is no gloating over Gaosai's loss.
Some are just, purely happy for Dean.
Facing such a Grand Duke Jade, Dean naturally smiled - he likes and respects such a Grand Duke Jade, so he is willing to keep the Grand Duke Jade like this.
"Your Highness, can I invite you to have dinner with Irene?"
Dean asked with a smile.
"It should be me who invited you—for this hard-won victory!"
After speaking, Grand Duke Jade turned around and gave instructions to the attendants at the side.
The chief guard, who had been standing behind Dean, gave Dean a thumbs up.
In response, Dean shrugged slightly.
...
Although the dinner was arranged by Grand Duke Emerald, the location was on the flagship of the Zelgaon family.
The only people present were Dean, Grand Duke Emerald and the chief guard.
Like Tom, Nord and Elder Lunk, they were on the sidelines.
However, soon, the three of them walked to the other side of the ship's side at the same time, and let all the sailors leave, leaving the entire deck empty.
Only Dean, the Emerald Duke and the Chief Guard were left.
"'Shadow Arrow' Kodo is restrained by 'Rage Sword' Sadie?"
On the table. After Dean explained the game in the morning in detail, the chief guard of the Grand Duke was taken aback. Even Grand Duke Emerald was surprised.
Obviously, this situation was beyond their expectations.
"The battle between Prince Fendel and Prince Eddie is far more intense than we know - from the separate teams in the preliminary round, it can be seen that they are no longer the so-called face-to-heart feud , but it has really progressed to the point of life and death... If it wasn't for the suppression of the Gao Sai King, I am afraid that the war for the throne has already started!"
Dean said directly after scooping up a spoonful of oyster soup with a spoon.
The two people in front of him are two people he trusts so much, so there is no need to hide it.
"Gao Sai will fall into civil strife?"
The chief guard who picked up a bone was startled again when he heard Dean's analysis.
"As long as that Gao Sai King is still alive, no!"
Dean replied with a smile.
"But I heard that His Majesty's health is very bad... ah, ah!"
While talking, the chief guard ate the bone--the bone made from the hind leg of a cow, which obviously suited the chief guard's taste, and he made a sound of satisfaction while eating.
In such satisfaction, Gao Saiwang and so on naturally stepped aside.
"His Majesty King Gao Sai is stronger than imagined—at least, there is no problem in living for another ten years!"
Grand Duke Emerald said with certainty.
Regarding the strength of Gao Saiwang, the other party can ascend to the throne in the competition with Fendel and Eddie. Apart from being old, strength is naturally a part that cannot be ignored.
The old Gao Saiwang, who has long passed away, is not a faint and incompetent king.
"Well, of course, no problem!"
Dean nodded and said in a 'sincere' tone.
Then, he directly picked up a plate of fresh lemons and placed them in front of Grand Duke Jade.
Dean is naturally clear about Grand Duke Emerald's preferences.
Grand Duke Emerald looked at the smiling Dean, nodded with the same smile, then took a knife and fork, and put a slice of fresh lemon on the steak in front of him, with a slight press of the knife, the juice in the whole lemon slice All of it flowed out, covering the steak. Immediately, the aroma of the beef and the aroma of the fruit were mixed together, which made the index finger move.
"Your Highness, your control is really amazing!"
Dean glanced at the lemon slice without any moisture, and admired it sincerely.
"After you have reached a very high level of [Heart Like Still Water], you can easily do it!"
The head guard at the side raised his cheeks that were greasy from the bones, and interjected.
"It's been a long time since then, and I can't do it recently!"
Dean shrugged, picked up a piece of bread, put it on the gravy next to the steak, dipped it slightly, and put it in his mouth. Feel the mellow gravy inside the bread. Dean pursed his lips involuntarily. Let your tongue fully taste that taste.
call!
The sea breeze blew over gently, and Dean, who was already feeling comfortable, narrowed his eyes comfortably. He felt the breath of Grand Duke Emerald beside him.
Heart, unprecedented peace.
Dean even wished time could stop if he could.
However, then Dean clearly realized that such a hope. Far less important than your own efforts.
Didn't he get this moment of peace just because he changed the original historical track?
"Then keep changing!"
Dean told himself that.
...
In the morning, Grand Duke Emerald and his party set off again.
This time, Dean did not go alone, but followed in the team—today's rematch has been moved outside the Golden City of Gaosai Palace.
This is not change.
This is the case in Gaosai's annual National Founding Celebration.
The preliminary round was outside the capital, the rematch was outside the Golden City, and the final round was inside the Golden City.
However, compared to the number of people in the rematch in previous years, this year is much less.
With Dean included. It was only twelve people.
That's at least two-thirds less than in previous years.
As for why this is the case?
Dean shrugged his shoulders, expressing his ignorance and innocence.
Naturally, Tom, who was sitting opposite Dean, would not object to his master. He just described it objectively——
"Master, after you left, at the suggestion of His Excellency Oilo, they, including His Excellency Manker, guarded the entrance of the hunting ground. Only with their approval can they go to exchange the badge... the preliminary contestant The continuous protests by the person in charge, however, are of no use!"
"Who are the people who entered the semi-finals?"
Dean asked.
"Besides you, the most famous ones are: 'Soul Torturer' Mankel and his companion 'Shining' Dickie, both of whom belong to Prince Eddie's faction; then there are Chastain and Oilo, as well as 'Hercules' Sirik and 'Venomist' Rand; as well as the three people who are loyal to King Gao Sai headed by His Excellency Markle, and Andro and Stephen!"
Tom answered in great detail.
"Andro?"
Dean was taken aback.
He obviously didn't expect Andro to be able to enter the semi-finals, especially when the opponent was almost in a semi-comatose state.
"It was recommended by His Excellency 'Soul Torturer' Manker and His Excellency 'The Shining' Dicky, and on the premise that there is no objection from the people around, the other party has entered the rematch!"
Tom had obviously taken the news on purpose.
"It seems that Prince Eddie is very optimistic about Andro!"
Dean nodded with a smile and didn't take it seriously. He was even more aware of Prince Eddie's plan.
It's nothing more than cultivating cronies while making Fendel's face even more ugly. After all, one side has entered the semi-finals with three players, while the other side has zero players.
Enough to make people say some gossip.
As for the original facts?
After dinner, who cares about the facts?
"So, who is Stephen?"
Dean asked about this strange name.
"This Stephen is a native of the capital—it should be someone hiding in the shadows, and his strength is not weak!"
Tom obviously didn't find out clearly about this person who appeared out of nowhere.
However, Dean had some guesses.
The appearance of Aleander had already given Dean enough information.
The opponent should be one of the assassins from the Brotherhood.
The carriage gradually slowed down and finally stopped.
Tom got out of the carriage from one side first, and opened the door for Dean on the other side facing the Golden City, the Royal Palace of Gaosai.
"Hey big man, here!"
Dean got off the carriage, and Oilo's shout came from a distance.
Dean followed the voice, and saw Oilo standing side by side with Sirik the Strong, among whom Oilo was winking at him.
"I'll go back!"
After saying something to Tom, Dean walked towards where Oilo was.
