Chapter 19 Josh: I act openly and aboveboard (Please read~)

"In the name of the King of Kamavia, the man whose soul is bound to Mu Qing, Foyego Santiarul Morach of Kala Hegayari, I have come to your city here to bestow my blessings.

"

…

"Kamavians, the Council will not accept bribes or threats of any kind!"

…

"The parliament has understood your request. We will temporarily adjourn the meeting to discuss it carefully."

…

"After we make a decision, we will summon you."

…

The scene of talking with the masters and elders in the Council Hall of Shuoguang Tower in the early morning is still vivid in my mind.

After wandering aimlessly for several hours, Callista finally sat on a marble bench in the square, looked at the hurried scholars in the distance, and sighed slowly.

Josh didn't stop Callista from leaving. His target today was not her.

Josh Russell, he said that I would bring back news of the Water of Life, but I discovered the legendary Blessed Island. Will those masters really let me leave?

While Callista was immersed in her own thoughts, a familiar figure approached her.

In order to stabilize Foyego's royal power, the marriage between the royal princess and the kingdom's military commander, the most powerful, is indeed the best choice.

That night, Ledros also brought up this topic, but she didn't pay attention at the time.

Since last night's trip was uneventful, it was enough to prove that they were not aimed at Josh, and a heavy stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

She really wanted to continue asking Josh about Kamaviya, but she hated talking to him. This feeling of being seen through everything really made her uncomfortable.

Since he didn't have a map at hand, in order to get familiar with the topography of the city, Josh avoided the area of ​​the Shining Light Tower and wandered around the city openly, while appreciating the almost indifferent customs of Hylia people.

After running a few steps, she suddenly turned back and bent her knees in front of Josh, tilting her head to take a quick look at his face.

Not only did they not arrange anyone to monitor Josh, they did not even inform the guards in the city about Josh and the Darkin weapons.

This city is not as perfect as it appears on the surface, nor is it as enlightened as Tyrus described it.

With Kalista's problem solved, the next step is Thresh, the traitor on the Blessed Isles.

[You’ve been avoiding my questions this morning—damn it, you brat blocked me again!]

Josh sat down next to Callista in a dignified manner, with a calm smile on his face.

After they left, Josh simply rested his stomach, then without stopping, he put on the gray robe he had worn after traveling through his clothes, and returned to Hylia.

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed two scholars a dozen steps away pointing in this direction without any scruples, as if they were discussing the princess of Kamavia, and seemed to have recognized Josh's identity.

He wore a robe with a gray hood, and his angular face was hidden in the shadows.

Although she said this, the cold sweat on Callista's forehead and her pounding heart showed that she was not in a calm mood at the moment.

After talking to Josh, Kalista tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep. She already felt very exhausted mentally.

Now that he was really recognized, Josh suddenly raised his head and stared, but what surprised him first was the woman's dress.

Thanks to the fact that the elders and masters of Shuoguang Tower have lived a pampered life all year round, they turn a blind eye to the potential "crisis" in front of them.

Josh kept a polite smile without losing his grace, "No, I just happened to meet you."

In such a huge Hylia, Callista couldn't go anywhere except her own residence.

Kalista didn't notice the visitor at all until he spoke: "The Council failed you, right?"

Josh replied mentally: "Didn't we discuss this topic this morning?"

Callista pursed her lips and remained silent, not responding.

Kalista looked sideways at Josh, who was one person away from her, trying to read something from his face.

As soon as she saw Josh, Calista's mind flashed back to the scene of last night's conversation, and her already bad mood became even heavier. She frowned unfriendly and asked: "What do you want to do again? Come to see my joke?"

"Let me blanch Guangming Shaobing?!"

Until the servants came to clean the house and bring today's food, Josh casually asked where he had lived in the city, and then ordered them to bring him some books about Vastaya and Vasani tomorrow.

Callista turned her head in surprise and saw Josh, who was wearing colorful and gorgeous clothes inside, but everything was covered up by the gray robe on the outside.

The return voyage had to be postponed again. Judging from the queen's condition when she went to sea, she could not hold on for much longer.

Ignoring Lunessia's shouting, Josh and Callista looked at each other and randomly found a topic: "On this return trip, you should respond to Ledros's feelings expressed to you, otherwise..."

"Just call me Josh."

The superiors of the Shining Light Tower hate outsiders entering Fuguang Island, and hope that this island will always be hidden in myths, legends and layers of white mist.

"Russell?"

Except for the occasional daze, Kalista couldn't read what he was thinking through his expression.

【I don’t understand why you can be so absolutely calm? 】

It seems that Hecarim does have a problem...

Josh was stunned, staring at Callista's face for a moment, and then suddenly realized.

She originally wanted to relax in the city, but wherever she went, the guards standing guard would stop her.

"Sorry, I'm tired." After thinking about it again, Callista said it out of courtesy and stood up to leave.

I know Ledros, he is my subordinate, he cannot know Josh, and he is loyal to the Black Gayari royal family.

But for some reason, Callista always had the illusion that he was avoiding something.

Kalista took a deep breath, feeling quite conflicted.

Damn it, why did this guy even know that Ledros secretly came to my room to express his love?

Although she was still complaining about Soraka's "Riddler" behavior yesterday, now, Kalista hates the feeling that everything she wants to hide has nowhere to hide.

You obviously have the ability to save lives and heal the wounded, so you don’t need to think about it!

What's more, he has already made a promise to form an alliance, and Hylia can freely choose the magical artifacts from Kamavia's treasury and the classics stored in the library at Hylia's price.

After finding his former residence, Josh tried his best not to alert the servants or Tyrus who might know him. He kept wandering outside the building, trying to meet Ryze who left at an unknown time.

Besides, Ahri found no trace of the two demon puppets in the forest last night.

However, all of these were rejected "righteously" by them.

"My fiancé...is Hecarim?"

Subconsciously pulling down the edge of the gray hood, just when Josh was about to be conservative and go back to his mansion to avoid the limelight, a petite, dark-skinned woman hurried past him.

The palace bureaucracy struggles in Kamavia were exhausting enough, but Kalista did not expect that the power monopoly on Blessed Light Island was even more serious.

Kalista looked away from the city, feeling melancholy and looking into the distance. What she could see was not the horizon where the Eternal Sea meets the sky, but the thick fog that looked like a walled fortress.

Even if she sincerely pleads for the life of a dying man, Parliament still has to spend time debating whether this approach is appropriate.

Before Josh could finish speaking, Kalista's face changed slightly and she hurriedly interrupted: "Please be careful what you say! My fiancé is Lord Hecarim, Ledras... he is just my most trusted soldier.

Lieutenant General, before I went to sea to find Fuguang Island, he had been appointed by the king as a royal guard and would no longer serve me."

Even if he admitted that what the Shining Tower did sometimes was undesirable, Tyrus' comfort still didn't have much effect on Kalista.

"Eh? Wait - you are?!"

Although Tyrus came to comfort him in the morning, he tried to persuade him on the grounds that the Kamavians were tyrannical and behaved erratically.

The guards in the city are basically set up to prevent civilians or certain unqualified scholars from entering important places. There is no such thing as questioning or arresting anyone they see acting suspiciously.

After sorting out his thoughts for a while, Josh continued to maintain his "Chosen One" persona, and said bluntly: "Are you so willing to sacrifice yourself? You know, Hecarim's method of becoming the leader of the Iron Legion is not honorable, and he

The ambition is far from that."

Quickly washing away the fatigue and sweat-soaked filth after the hurried trip, Josh had no time to brush up on his magic and spent time arguing with Lunessia about the "Chosen One".

Since Fuguang Island is surrounded by the holy mist, without the magic "roadstones" carried by explorers to break through the fog, outsiders cannot set foot on this paradise on their own.

On the eve of dawn, Josh and Ah Li parted ways, and it was already early morning when they returned to their mansion alone.

However, it was past noon, and Josh never waited for his rude and reckless junior brother. Instead, he met Calista, who was alone in the square and looked completely lost.

It's a pity, just like Lunessia commented that she couldn't see through Josh.
