The Herb King

205 The Lazy Drunkard Prince

“No wonder they didn’t allow our carriage to enter, so it’s because of this.” Aethelwolf muttered as he looked at the densely packed army camp. There were all sorts of boxes filled with weapons, armor, and other equipment scattered all over the camp. They must be planning to practice with the new items so that the soldiers would be accustomed to them.

Suddenly, Aethelwolf saw a familiar face walking towards them. It was Baron who came with a group of Legion Commanders. Ramiel was also one of them.

“Sir Aethelwolf, I was notified of your arrival and we immediately came to see you.” Baron shook hands with Aethelwolf.

“It’s nice to see you again, Sir Baron. It seems like you are in a good mood.” Aethelwolf smiled. He then turned his gaze to Ramiel and nodded his head at him.

“Uncle Ramiel!” Olivia eagerly waved her hands at Ramiel, making the latter smile from ear to ear.

Everyone had smiles on their faces as they looked at the excited little girl.

Baron chuckled as he nodded his head. “The batch of goods we asked to be delivered has already arrived. I thought that it would take a few more days before we could get our hands on them, but His Highness brought them for us.”

“You mean His Highness Prince Renz?” Aethelwolf asked.

Baron nodded his head. “Yes, it’s him. His Highness came with his soldiers. They are now part of Sir Ramiel’s legion.” As he said this, he glanced at Ramiel who was standing half a step behind him.

.....

“Oh? I hope that we aren’t disturbing you guys here. Olivia wants to see her Uncle Ramiel so I brought her here. We can chat another time, Sir Baron. You should do the more important things first.” Aethelwolf said.

Baron didn’t reject him since he still had a lot of matters to take care of. “Alright. In that case, I’ll take my leave first, Sir Aethelwolf.” He then shifted his gaze to Ramiel and told him. “Sir Ramiel, I’ll leave Sir Aethelwolf in your care.”

“Yes, Chief.” Ramiel nodded his head.

Baron bid them farewell and left with the others.

“It seems like you’ve been doing well here, Ramiel. Good job.” Aethelwolf patted Ramiel’s shoulder.

Ramiel shook his head and answered truthfully. “It’s only because of your reputation, Sir Aethelwolf.” He knew that it was only because of Aethelwolf that Harold, Aurus, and the others joined his group. If not for him, he wouldn’t have the chance to become a Legion Commander.

Aethelwolf merely smiled at his words.

“I’ll take you guys to our group. Follow me.” Ramiel led them to where his legion was stationed.

Upon their arrival, Aethelwolf quickly noticed a few of his friends.

“Sir Aethelwolf!”

“Sir Aethelwolf, you’re here?”

Aethelwolf waved his hand at them.

They walked towards Aethelwolf and chatted with him.

In the middle of their conversation, Aethelwolf saw a man with unkempt golden hair sitting listlessly on a chair. He was holding a bottle of wine in his hand.

Following his line of sight, his friends told him that the man was Prince Renz.

“So that’s him.” Aethelwolf narrowed his eyes as he inspected the first prince using his observation skills.

First Prince of the Leone Empire [Renz Conrad Leone] Peak Stage Level 4 Esper

– The first prince of the Leone Empire. He is hiding his...

Aethelwolf’s eyes constricted as soon as he saw the description of the first prince. From the looks of it, this guy was merely hiding his real abilities from the public!

This time, Aethelwolf finally knew why the emperor sent this guy here. Other than Dimitri, Prince Renz Conrad was the strongest expert under him!

“Excuse me.” Aethelwolf excused himself from his friends and walked towards the first prince.

“Greetings, Your Highness.” Aethelwolf greeted the man with a smile.

Prince Renz slowly raised his head and squinted his eyes as he studied Aethelwolf’s appearance. “I’m sorry, but you are?”

“Aethelwolf. My name is Aethelwolf Lassiter.” He replied.

Prince Renz sat up straight when he heard this name. “You are Sir Aethelwolf? I’ve heard a lot about you. Do you still remember an army captain named John Phillip Manzano?”

Aethelwolf thought for a moment and recalled the man he met in Vale City. It was the guy who seemed to be interested in Samira.

Aethelwolf nodded his head. “Yes, I remember him. He helped me a lot when I was in Vale City with Samira.”

Hearing this, Prince Renz grinned. “That guy is a subordinate of mine. He talks a lot about you and he even recently became a Level 3 Esper after eating your Vigor Pellet.”

“Is that so? I’m happy to hear that.” Aethelwolf chatted with the first prince. The guy didn’t talk like a member of the imperial family. If he hadn’t seen Prince Renz’ true power, he would have believed that this man was a drunkard.

Prince Renz noticed that Aethelwolf was still standing so he immediately said while grabbing a chair. “Please sit here beside me, Sir Aethelwolf.”

“Thanks.” Aethelwolf took a seat.

Suddenly, a little girl walked towards them and looked at Prince Renz with a curious look. “Uncle, do you like to drink wine?” She asked.

Prince Renz laughed loudly while looking at the little girl. “Yes, that’s right. I love wine so much.”

Cough!

Aethelwolf quickly grabbed her arm and said. “Don’t be rude, Olivia. This is His Highness, Prince Renz.”

Hearing this, the little one covered her mouth with her hands with a look of surprise.

“What a cute little girl. Is she your daughter, Sir Aethelwolf?” The prince asked with a wide smile.

Aethelwolf nodded his head. “Her name is Olivia.”

“Olivia, apologize to His Highness.” He told the little girl.

“There’s no need for that, Sir Aethelwolf. I like her a lot.” Prince Renz chuckled before taking a swig of his wine.

Aethelwolf observed the first prince and he didn’t seem to be acting. Perhaps he learned to love his identity as a lazy drunkard prince.
