Chapter 193: 193
Chapter 193: The Arrogant Emissary of Wind City
“Phew! I’m finally out!” Locke carried his belongings and stepped out of the palace.
To be honest, although the palace was magnificent, Locke did not really like the sense of ceremony that was practiced in the palace.
It was still more carefree outside the palace.
Under the escort of the convoy, Locke had arrived at the airport. He was boarding Adelaide’s private plane. The two hot beauties had been waiting for a long time.
…
At this moment, at the Federal Academy, Hobrick and a few directors were supervising the construction of the workers and students.
Douglas, who had changed into a security uniform, was patrolling the campus.
The campus was filled with a relaxed atmosphere.
At this moment, an instructor ran over and said, “Principal, there are two people outside the door. They say they want to see you.”
“Who are they? What are their identities?” Hobrick’s eyes narrowed as he became nervous.
The instructor said, “They said that they came from the distant Wind City and are the subordinates of the King of Wind City.”
What should come would come. It seemed that this disaster could not be avoided!
“Bring them to my office. I’ll be there in a while…” Although Hobrick’s face was calm, he was thinking of countermeasures.
When Hobrick returned to his temporary office, he found two middle-aged men sitting on the seats made of books. Their faces revealed impatience.
“Sorry for waiting…” Hobrick put on a smiling face and immediately ordered people to bring fruits and bread.
Judging from the two middle-aged men’s clothes, they were both high-end goods and should be specially made. They were dressed in silver, which was the standard color of the Frederick family.
It seemed that they did not like the ordinary food that Hobrick had prepared. Their eyes were full of disdain.
When they came to their master, they did not show any intention of being polite and just sat still.

The slightly older guy said, “I’m Duke Freeman, a subordinate of the Frederick family, the king of Wind City! The one who came with me is Earl Cook!”
What Hobrick hated the most was this kind of arrogant aristocrats. However, he hoped that this matter could be suppressed. After returning to his own actions, he forced a smile and asked, “What can I do for you two?”
After taking a sip of Hobrick’s coffee, Cook spat it on the ground. “Oh my god! What is this thing? Underground water?”
Hobrick had always been thrifty. He used and ate very ordinary things. Naturally, he would not satisfy these nobles.
“Let’s get down to business! We’re here under the orders of the King! We are here to extradite a prisoner named Locke!” Duke Freeman did not want to stay in this lousy place for long, so he went straight to the point.
Hobrick nodded slightly and pretended to be dumb. “Prisoner? Then you two nobles should go to the court or the police station. Why are you here in my university? We have students here, there are no prisoners…”
Looking at the old man pretending to be dumb, Earl Cook said, “Mr. Hobrick, please don’t pretend to be dumb! Now that Locke has insulted the royal family emblem, everyone on the mainland knows about it!”
It was not that they had not tried to go to the local federal court and the police station. However, the situation was the same as the previous batch of secret agents.
They had to wait for the legal procedures and the two organizations had to push and pull between each other.
If they had followed the normal procedures, they would have to wait for at least a year before there could be any result.
Therefore, after the two of them had discussed about the matter, they decided to directly come to the academy to seek Locke out.
“I’ve said it before, there are no prisoners here, and Locke is from Holy City. I really don’t know how he violated the laws of your faraway Wind City? Nonsense!” Hobrick was also annoyed and the smile on his face had gradually disappeared.

“It seems that you commoners will never take the initiative to study the laws of the Federation! This is a special provision that the royal family bestowed upon the King! It’s implemented throughout the entire continent!” Earl Cook said without giving him any face. He directly forced the other party into a corner.
“What if we don’t hand him over?” It was Diana who spoke.
At this moment, Director Diana who had received the news also rushed over.
Duke Freeman had already investigated before he came. There was not a single noble in the entire Federal Academy.
“This isn’t a place where you commoners can interrupt! Stand down!” He shouted angrily.
“Pa!”
Hobrick was finally angry! He had a strange temper to begin with but seeing this fellow dared to insult his own subordinates, he said angrily, “Shut the f*ck up! This is my territory! My rules are in charge! This is how our academy is! Everyone can express their opinions! That’s not only for bullsh*it nobles!”
Earl Cook said in a high-pitched voice, “Hmph! A commoner is a commoner! You break the law and still act so arrogantly! Is this how you treat your guests?”
Diana stepped forward with her hands on her hips and said, “I’m an honor student who graduated from the Heavenly City Law Academy! I think I’m qualified to discuss this issue, right? Although it’s true that Locke broke the law but he still has to go through the legal procedures of Holy City! Do you think this is your Wind City? What did Gilbert say to settle it? I’m sorry, our Holy City doesn’t have a king so we don’t have the same rules as you!”
“You b*tch, how dare you call our King by his name! This is a capital offense!” Duke Freeman stood up and cursed angrily.
Fortunately, Douglas had not come over yet or else he would definitely fight this guy to death!
Diana snorted coldly and continued. “What’s wrong? I just called him Gilbert! Is this against the law? That’s the d*mn law of your Wind City! Don’t apply it here!”
“You!” Just when Duke Freeman was about to step forward and slap Diana, Hobrick suddenly appeared in front of him.
Hobrick stared at this Duke Freeman angrily and said coldly, “If you dare to insult my subordinates again, I guarantee that you won’t be able to leave Holy City!”
Realizing that things were not looking good, Earl Cook immediately stepped forward and pulled Duke Freeman back. He said in a low voice, “Calm down, let’s get down to business first…”
Duke Freeman was already stunned by Hobrick’s gaze and he was feeling a little afraid. He took this opportunity to take a few steps back.
Earl Cook took over the topic, smiled, and said, “Hehehe… Everyone, don’t be rash. Let’s get down to business. More than ten years ago, someone made the same mistake as Locke. But after he personally came to Wind City to seek forgiveness, the King had pardoned him. So, we hope that Locke will voluntarily go back with us. If that’s the case, everyone will be fine.”
“Impossible! Locke is currently in the Royal Palace! If you have the ability, go to the Royal Palace and ask for him!” Hobrick immediately acted like a “rogue”.
Hobrick had always remembered what his brother had said a few days ago in the Royal Palace:
The higher and mighty a person was, the more they would not tolerate others offending them! For the sake of their family’s reputation, they had to do everything they could to get to the bottom of it!

Delve
Truth hides behind action. Delve. A word with many meanings. It may refer to an abyss, a dark place of no return or may also be a refuge, a haven of retreat from the harshness of the outside. None of those are right to me. For me, to delve is to seek the truth. Delving into that dark abyss and coming back with answers. To leave that safe refuge and suffer the pain of the outside just because it is real. This is the story of me delving deep into the truths of the universe. Suffering things that should not be suffered in search of things that should not be known. Once a common man, drowned in the same questions that have plagued humanity since the beginning of times, now I have found my answers. Now I have meaning. Delve, and you shall have yours as well. Jack is a regular citizen of modern society: he works on an office, uses public transport every day, receives a meager salary, and drowns his frustrations with entertainment and alcohol.

Despite feeling an unfillable void in his soul and suffering from deep depression, he still sees as his duty to be a functional, exemplary member of society. All in order to prove his life-goal point: no matter how good you are, life is still shit. This point-of-view, however, will be challenged by circumstances as a mysterious encounter with a weirdly dressed man takes him to a strange and dark cave. In this place, he will have to fight for his life against fantastical creatures from fiction, and more importantly, get face to face with his own nature. In doing so, he will uncover secrets about the cave that will change both him and all he ever thought to be true.
