194 I Always Treat People With Sincerity

The queen was kidnapped by a spellcaster?

Well… Roland suddenly thought of a lot of irrelevant things, which were understandable, because the queen must be very beautiful according to common sense .

Roland had met the princess yesterday . She was beautiful, so it was only natural that her mother was beautiful too .

Then, a spellcaster took the queen away . He didn’t kill her but kidnapped her, and her beauty must be one of the reasons for that .

So, Roland’s random thoughts were normal and reasonable for a man of his age .

Seeing Roland’s reaction, the soldier chuckled . “You seem very surprised, don’t you?”

Roland asked back, “Are you not surprised?”

“Not really . ” The soldier shook his head . “She’s the king’s third queen anyway . ”

Huh?

Roland was even more surprised . “Three queens have been taken away?”

The royal family of Hollevin seemed too lousy . Three queens had been taken away from the heavily guarded royal palace, and no lessons were learned at all?

The soldier’s pretty face now revealed a smile . “They weren’t all taken away . The first queen was assassinated by a foreign country, the second queen died in an accident, and I don’t think the third queen will meet a good end . ”

“It seems that being the queen of Hollevin is a dangerous job,” Roland couldn’t help but remark .

The pretty soldier nodded . “Indeed . I’m told that every king in history had a couple of queens . The deceased queens died either in assassinations or in accidents . They say it’s a special curse, but I don’t know if it’s true . ”

“Every king?” Roland secretly clicked his tongue .

The pretty soldier nodded .

Roland suddenly thought of another question . “Which queen is Princess Evelyn’s mother?”

“You know Evelyn?” The pretty soldier was surprised .

“I’m just asking . ”

Roland didn’t tell the soldier that he had talked to Princess Evelyn only yesterday because it would sound like bragging .

The pretty soldier glanced at Roland with his big eyes and smiled . “Princess Evelyn is the first queen’s daughter . ”

Oh… Roland nodded .

People were entering and exiting the gate . Many of them peeped at Roland and the soldier and left quietly .

The pretty soldier turned his head aside and said, “I think it will take a while before Bard arrives . Do you want to take a rest in our lounge?”

Roland thought for a moment and said, “Okay, thank you for your trouble . ”

It was definitely not comfortable to be stared at by everyone on the road .

The pretty soldier said, “You’re too kind . ”

Then, he led Roland to an aisle next to the city gate and opened a secret door .

There was a small room behind the door with a coverage of about fifteen square meters . Three soldiers were talking and laughing around a table .

Seeing the pretty soldier, they were so scared that they all stood and saluted him . “Officer Antis!”

The pretty soldier nodded at them and said gently, “Get out . I need to occupy this place to entertain this Mage . If you see Bard outside, please tell him to come here . ”

The soldiers ran out of the room quickly .

“They seem scared of you!” Roland sat down on a chair . “I didn’t know you were named Antis . ”

Antis had been staring at Roland’s face . Seeing no reaction from him, he sat down too and smiled . “You don’t seem to know what my name represents . ”

Roland shrugged . “Sorry for my ignorance . ”

Antis smiled as sweetly as a teenage girl . “You must be a Golden Son . ”

Roland nodded and asked back, “How did you recognize me?”

“I’ve seen a few Golden Sons,” Antis said slowly . “Though your personality and behavior are different, your aura is the same . ”

Antis seemed bummed when he talked about Golden Sons . “I have some questions for you regarding the Golden Sons . ”

Roland made a “feel free to ask” gesture .

Then, Antis told Roland what happened to him .

About two months earlier, a few undying Golden Sons arrived at the capital .

Almost all the nobles were interested in them, and many of them invited the Golden Sons to visit their houses . When they were all half-drunk, some malicious guys said that they wanted to see how undying the Golden Sons were .

It seemed that the Golden Sons did not sense the nobles’ maliciousness . They simply said that they would lose what they called experience points if they died, so they wouldn’t perform unless they were given three gold coins .

Three gold coins for each person was not much for the nobles at all, who were eager for the entertainment .

The Golden Sons honored their promise after acquiring the coins . They stabbed their swords into their chests and died on the spot, making all the noble ladies scream and shout .

The male nobles didn’t look too good either . Having never been to a real battlefield, they had never seen such gory scenes before .

Then, the Golden Sons returned from the Temple of Life naked .

They even reclaimed their bodies after they returned, which was quite amazing .

It was a hit in the capital . Too many noble families invited the Golden Sons to perform .

As a result, the Golden Sons each earned more than a hundred gold coins for suicide performances in only two months .

Their income was even more than the income of many minor noble families .

Then one day, Antis’ family invited the Golden Sons over .

But the moment the Golden Sons saw him, they started talking dirty like “I love drag queens” and “I’m so excited . ” A lot of people were at the party back then . The male nobles tried to stay neutral, but all the noble ladies were chuckling while covering their mouths with a handkerchief .

Antis was so angry that he slashed the Golden Sons immediately .

The Golden Sons did not resist at all . They even had a “my life has been fulfilled” look on their face when they were cut into pieces, which was incomprehensible .

Those Golden Sons didn’t even want their bodies any longer after their resurrection . They cheered and ran out of the capital naked . The city guards were so dumbfounded that they simply watched the Golden Sons leave .

Now that Antis thought of it, the Golden Sons were probably not being malicious . There was nothing but excitement and joy in their eyes, and nothing negative .

Roland could only hold his forehead after hearing the story . Although their methods were humiliating, those players were indeed great moneymakers, and they even managed to escape after making a great amount of money .

“Your eyes are very similar,” Antis said slowly . “You look at everybody as if they were gold coins that could walk . ”

Roland was stunned . “Mine too?”

“More or less . ”

Roland found it hard to accept the remark . He had always treated everybody with sincerity . How could he have left the soldier such a first impression?

He was about to argue when the door opened, and Bard walked in delightedly .
