Who taught him to restore the country like this?

"Enemy attack, alert!"

The next second, black smoke rose from all directions.

Dozens of demons with wings on their backs flew into the sky from the dense forest below and surrounded the Griffin Knights.

"Oh no! It's Baal, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demonic Third Legion."

"alert!"

"Protect Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Chapter 26 Kailina

At daybreak, the streets of Kassel were already filled with people.

The breeze in the early morning was a little cool, but it did not cool the residents' enthusiasm. They whispered to each other, their faces full of anticipation and excitement. These residents who came spontaneously were all looking forward to catching a glimpse of Princess Karina.

At the city gate, led by Lord Earl Lawrence, the surrounding small lords were waiting here early.

Earl Lawrence was dressed in a gorgeous suit, the medal on his chest gleaming coldly in the dim light. He adjusted his collar from time to time, his eyes looking into the distance.

When the small lords in the surrounding area learned that Princess Kalina was coming, they all came to greet her spontaneously.

Behind this group of nobles were the well-known merchants and adventurers in the city of Kassel.

Ron, who had transformed himself into the merchant Cassius, mingled with them and couldn't help but feel a little emotional - Princess Karina's reputation among the common people and the nobles was really high.

People who are capable and willing to give for free are indeed likable, but there is no need to envy them.

While waiting, the merchants and adventurers around him began to chat about the gossip they had heard.

"The Titan Kingdom paid the Rose Mercenaries a large sum of money to defeat the dragon, but they failed and the princess was kidnapped by the dragon."

"The king, the ultimate victor of the First Divine War, has passed away, and several of his successors are now fighting for power."

"The new Saint of the Holy Grace Church is a demihuman."

"The dean of the White Demon Academy in the magic city accepts a genius magical girl as his apprentice."

"Have you heard? The former Saint of the Glorious Church was attacked by the Rah Kingdom and is still in a coma."

Ron was listening with great interest when the melon suddenly started to bite him.

"The King of the Rah Kingdom is truly courageous. Not only did he dare to restore his kingdom alone within the Emerald Kingdom, he even dared to offend the Glorious Church."

"He's just a fool. Even though the Kingdom of Lach had such a huge advantage at the beginning, he still led it to destruction. When the capital fell, he fled in fear of death."

"What a pity for the Grey Mist Territory. All their food and property have been squandered, and their weapons and armor have even been melted down. It's a disaster!"

"The Kingdom of Lah is unlucky to have such a king."

"I really hope the Emerald Kingdom can catch this heinous criminal soon."

"If this villain had even one percent of the kindness and wisdom of Princess Kailina, the Kingdom of Rah wouldn't have been destroyed."

"That's it."

A group of people burst into laughter.

Laugh, laugh, your wise princess will soon be beaten to a pulp by the demons.

Ron stared ahead expressionlessly.

The next second, a roar sounded in the sky.

While the people in the city were still wondering what the sound was, Earl Lawrence at the city gate had already realized that something was wrong.

After the two hundred cavalrymen galloped out of the city gate, the people in the city realized that something had happened, but they were unable to do anything and could only wait anxiously in the city.

After half an hour.

Earl Lawrence returned with less than a hundred cavalrymen and a group of adventurers.

On the back of the warhorse beside Earl Lawrence, they saw the wounded Princess Kaileena.

Looking up at the sky, he could not see the Griffin Knights guarding Princess Kaileena.

The answer was written on Kylena’s sad and heavy face.

There was no longer the laughter and joy on both sides of the street.

In this battle, they encountered the Four Heavenly Kings of the Third Demon Legion. The Griffin Knights protected Princess Kaileena at the cost of all their members being killed.

Several nobles glanced at Cassius inconspicuously.

Ron exchanged a calm look with them.

Taking advantage of the information gap of Princess Kaileena's attack, he established himself as the spokesperson of Baal. Now these demons will completely obey his arrangements.

If he could stop the demons from plotting against Princess Kaileena and rescue her, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he could be promoted to a silver-level adventurer.

As for why he didn't report directly to the Adventurer's Guild about the demons' plan to attack Princess Kaileena, first of all, the Adventurer's Guild might not believe him without any evidence.

Secondly, even if the Adventurer's Guild believed it, they would not take it seriously. In their view, Princess Kaileena is protected by the Griffin Knights, and she can escape unscathed even if attacked by demons.

After all, who would have thought that a demon at the king level could sneak behind the front line silently.

If Ron directly said that it was Baal who attacked Kaileena, then it would not only be the Adventurer's Guild that would be paying attention to him, but also the Great Demon Baal of the Third Demon Legion.

Both would wonder where his information came from.

However, his identity could not withstand the scrutiny of those upper-level bosses.

Once his identity as the King of the Kingdom of Rah is exposed, I believe that the people of the Kingdom of Orrantia will be more concerned about how to torture the secrets out of him rather than gratitude.

Ron doesn't consider himself a selfless saint; his starting point will always be above his own interests and safety.

Of course, he would not do anything harmful.

……

After Kalina followed Earl Lawrence into the city, she did not choose to rest and recuperate, nor did she overly indulge in the sorrow of the death of the Griffin Knights.

She knew that only by completing her own mission could she ensure that these people's sacrifices would not be in vain.

At her request, Earl Lawrence took her to a place that had been prepared long ago and set up a defensive formation.

Dozens of knights were standing by in battle formation.

The demons led by Ron had no chance to take action.

Ron was not in a hurry either. The Griffin Knights were completely wiped out, and the demon Bal was nowhere to be found. Kalina would not leave Cassel until new guards arrived. He had plenty of time to assassinate Kalina.

Ron waited outside.

Time passes slowly.

Before we knew it, night fell.

Finally, Kylena came out.

Ron quickly stepped forward and bowed, greeting her. "Your Highness, Kylena, Cassius of the Moon Merchant Guild sends his greetings. May the glory of the kingdom be with you."

Kylena looked at Ron and nodded slightly with a tired look on her face.

Then he was about to walk past Ron.

"Your Highness Kalina, thank you for your contribution to Cassel. We have prepared a simple but sincere dinner for you at the Yueyao Chamber of Commerce. We sincerely invite you to come." Ron hurriedly invited.

"Feel sorry."

Kylena’s face showed apology.

The death of the Griffin Knights and a day of fatigue left her with no energy to attend the banquet.

Just as I was about to decline, I heard Ron say, "What happened this morning has made the residents of Cassel uneasy. They are all worried about your health. The nobles, merchants, and adventurers in the city are all looking forward to resting with you and sharing a moment of peace."

The implication is: Cassel has fallen into panic because of your attack by the demons. If you don't show up at the party, everyone will be uneasy.

Kylena paused when she heard this.

After a moment, she pulled a tired smile and said, "Please tell everyone that I will be there shortly."

"Thank you for your promise, Your Highness. I will go back and prepare and await your arrival." Ron bowed slightly and turned to leave.

Moral kidnapping always works.

Chapter 27 Cassius is a genius

The lobby on the second floor of Yueyao Chamber of Commerce has been arranged into a banquet hall according to Ron's requirements.

Ron walked into the hall and was immediately stopped by several nobles and asked, "Cassius, has Her Highness Kylena agreed to attend the banquet?"

Everyone in the banquet hall looked over here.

Ron smiled, as if fulfilling his mission, and said, "Her Highness Kylena will be here soon. Please prepare for the reception."

Everyone in the banquet hall showed happy expressions when they heard this.

"Don't worry, we've already prepared everything. We're just waiting for Her Highness Kalina to arrive." The young viscount gave Ron a reassuring look.

"Then I'll leave this place to you." Ron turned and was about to leave.

"Wait," a bloated baron stopped him and asked with an unhappy look, "Where are you going?"

Ron stopped and said respectfully, "I still have work to do to prepare a report. Does Baron Henry have any questions?"

His tone was very light, but Baron Henry heard a threat in it - if you delay my work, you will be beheaded when you are brought to see Lord Bal.

"Hmph." Baron Henry snorted and turned away in a timid manner.

“Enjoy your meal.”

Ron bowed, then turned around, a smile on his face, and walked away briskly.

……

Shortly after Ron left, Kylena arrived at the banquet hall under the escort of Earl Lawrence's guards.

Kylena had an elegant posture, and her gorgeous evening dress swayed gently with her steps. The gems inlaid on the hem of the skirt sparkled with a cold and charming luster.

The moment she stepped into the banquet hall, the originally bustling hall suddenly became quiet and everyone's attention was focused on her.

"Welcome Her Highness Karina. Tonight's banquet is made more glorious because of you." The young viscount stepped forward quickly, bowed slightly, and performed a standard aristocratic salute.
