Chapter 84: Meet the Princess Once Again_l


    Trantor: 549690339


    When the countdown was down to 5 minutes, Su Yu sessfully arrived at the gate of Goldfinch Royal Pce.


    Keerderon, the royal guard of the princess, in a brand new silver armor, had been waiting there for a long time.


    Upon seeing Su Yu, he ced his left hand on his chest and bowed respectfully to Su Yu:


    “Master Nemesis, Her Highness the Princess instructed me to greet you. Let me guide you in.”


    “Alright, lead the way.”


    Su Yu followed Keerderon and walked towards the pce.


    “Ding! Your main quest has been updated! [The Glory of Goldfinch Empire


    (8/100)].”


    “Task requirement: Participate in the ‘Maple City Negotiation Preparation Meeting’.”


    “Task reward: 300 Experience Points.”


    Seeing the reward of this task, Su Yu knew that this task would not be difficult.


    300 Experience Points meant that this was just a formality task, and he didn’t think much of it.


    Walking through the pce, Su Yu chatted with Keerderon while enabling


    [First-Person Holographic View] to record the scene of the 8th ring quest.


    He wanted to record Tina’s storyline, after all, that was a precious main quest, and many people would want to watch it.


    However, considering his small interactions with Tina, he gave up.


    The 8th ring of the Princess Quest was a transit task that required nobat, thus, it won’t reveal anything. So, Su Yu nned to record it for some extra money, and also to get members of the forum to help analyze the plot—two birds with one stone.


    It was still the same grand hall.


    Upon entering the hall, Su Yu found the hall already filled with ministers, nobles, and high-ranking military officers.


    Princess Alyssa, stern-faced, was seated on the throne.


    In her arms was a blue and white kitten radiating starlight, of an unknown breed.


    At this moment, the kitten was napping in the princess’s arms.


    The seventh-order shadow priest, Xi Fan, was seated on a chair on the side of the hall, enveloped in a dark aura, rendering his face invisible.


    Even though Su Yu was a high-ranking schr, his status among these people in the hall was the lowest, and he positioned himself at the rear of the crowd.


    “Now that everyone is here, let’s begin.”


    With the authoritative voice of the princess, the meeting officiallymenced.


    For the first 5 minutes of the meeting, the Princess and her ministers mainly discussed internal affairs of the empire and military deployment.


    For example, when the reinforcements and food supplies would arrive at


    Forest City from Orleans City;


    And suggesting to His Majesty the Emperor to switch from conscription to enlistment program to adapt to the new war situation.


    Su Yu wasn’t very concerned about these discussions, so he just heard them out and left.


    5 minutester, the princess shifted the topic to the uing trip to Maple City.


    “This time, I and the advisor Xi Fan will be going to Maple City for negotiations with Duke Anzu Seifer. Isaac, Ian.’


    “At yourmand.”


    A minister and a general in armor stepped forward.


    “Isaac, you’re in charge of the internal affairs of the Imperial City while I’m away;


    As for you Ian, the city’s defense force will be handed over to you. Remember not to provoke the Northern Rebel Army.”


    “Understood!” The city’s defense forcemander, Ian, knelt on one knee and replied respectfully.


    The internal minister named Isaac, however, frowned: “Your Highness, I still think you should not casually enter the enemy territory. It’s extremely dangerous. If something should happen to you on the road…” “Do you have a better n?” The princess coldly cut him off.


    “No… I don’t.”


    “Then we do it as I said.” Princess Alyssa closed her eyes slightly: “This negotiation is to promote a river divide with the rebel army along the Luminous River. If the negotiation is sessful, the name ‘Goldfinch’ will not be history.”


    The Luminous River is a major river running through the east-west axis of the Goldfinch Empire. The area on the north side of the river is almost equal to that on the south, and the Royal Pce of Goldfinch is also located on the Luminous River.


    If the negotiations are sessful, the royal family and the Kalet rebel army would divide their rule by the river. The Goldfinch Empire would also be split into the “South Goldfinch Empire” and “Kalet Empire.”


    But would the negotiations really be sessful?


    Su Yu looked at the task bar and the ny-something tasks left, and shook his head slightly.


    The southern royal family was not willing to give in, and the northern rebels had ambitions. The two major forces were bound to fight to death.


    The princess’s uing negotiations in Maple City were just to buy some time for the rear.


    The topics of the ongoing meeting mainly focused on when to set out for the negotiation.


    The princess’s personal guard required some more time for preparation, so the departure date was set to be in 7 days.


    After 7 days, the princess would head to Maple City with Xi Fan and her personal guard.


    The entire meeting did not offer Su Yu a chance to speak until the end of the meeting.


    After the meeting ended, the ministers left one after another.


    The moment he stepped out of the hall, a game prompt sounded again: * Ding! Your main quest has been updated! [The Glory of Goldfinch Empire


    * Task requirement: Please arrive at the gate of Goldfinch Royal Pce promptly after 14 hours and apany the princess to Maple City. Countdown


    ‘ Task reward: 800 Experience Points.”


    “Ah! Another waiting task.” Su Yu sighed slightly.


    Tina’s storyline was about constant monster killing, whereas the princess’s side was “wait wait wait”, which was quite boring.


    Looking at the time, it was already midnight.


    Su Yu nned to log off and go to sleep after leaving the pce. But at that moment, Keerderon, d in silver armor, ran up to him:


    “Master Nemesis, the princess requests your presence!”


    Several minutester, in a small courtyard behind the main hall, Su Yu met Princess Alyssa again.


    But by then, he had turned off his first-person view.


    This courtyard was probably the private residence of the princess, with many maids roaming around.


    “Nemesis, what do you think about these negotiations?”


    In the main hall, the princess was stroking the blue and white kitten in her arms, asking calmly.


    “These negotiations can only serve as a dy, the oue must be a failure.” Su Yu took a sip from the tea that the maid had handed to him:


    “We have an old saying where Ie from, ‘What you can’t get on the battlefield, you can’t get at the negotiation table.’”


    “Ding! You drank [Pandamen tea beverage], the experience +50 (valid only for the first time ).”


    “That makes sense.” The princess nodded slightly.


    “Nemesis, as a schr who specializes in divination, I want to hear your prediction. Will I encounter danger on this trip to Maple City?”


    Princess Alyssa looked at Su Yu seriously.


    Ever since Su Yu urately spoke about her true thoughtsst time, Alyssa knew that Su Yu was extraordinary.


    So when she was undecided about the trip to Maple City, the first person she thought of was Nemesis, wanting to hear his opinion.


    “ording to my calctions,” Su Yu closed his eyes, his expression serious,


    “you will face danger twice on this trip to Maple City.”


    “Twice?!”


    “Yes, once on the way, and onceing back.”


    Su Yu opened his eyes, his gaze deep: “If you want an out, I can give you a piece of advice.’


    “What advice?”


    “You could leverage the power of the yer… no, of the otherworld adventurers..”
