FreeNovel"I don't think Emperor Rolando will purposely make trouble for us. Our nation and the Great Jade Kingdom are allies. Moreover,
he intends to make Princess Lilian his empress. He must sincerely want to have a more stable alliance." Although Shawn
couldn't figure out what Rolando was thinking at the moment, he knew that the man wouldn't start a battle any time soon.
Harper looked around and saw a figure who was staggering out. "Who is that?" The person lunged at Harper at the sight of her.
"Master, I've finally found you!"
"Diana!" Harper looked at Diana in utter astonishment. The woman was in such a mess. It took her like countless days to finally
catch up with Harper after a long time. "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so embarrassed?" Harper asked in surprise.
"Master, please help me!" Diana wiped her bitter tears. "Carlson is such a shameless person. He even plotted against me! Do
you know what he did? That bastard! He drugged my horse and changed the guideposts along the way. As a result, I got lost so
many times that I only arrived in the imperial capital a few days ago. As soon as I arrived, I heard that you already left. So I was
in a rush to chase after you. I've never thought that you would take this way."
While she was thinking about Carlson, Harper's eyes lit up. It seemed like something had happened between Diana and Carlson.
It could only be the reason that he had played such cruel tricks on her.
"Why did he do that to you?" Harper asked
"I slapped his face a dozen times!"
Shawn opened his mouth a little, as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard. Carlson was known for being cunning and
dozen times. If it were someone else, he would have taken the person's life right there and then. "Well why did you slap his
face?" Harper's eyes widened in shock. Was it that Carlson thought that Diana was so beautiful so he tried to do something
malicious towards her? And Diana was so irritated that she slapped his face a dozen times? "At that time, I finally reached the
Birch Pass, but I couldn't find you. He was the first one I saw so I asked him where you were. But he was sleeping like a dead
pig. In order to wake him up, I slapped him more than ten times." Diana narrated the story so casually since she didn't think she
did anything wrong. While listening to Diana, Shawn nearly burst into laughter. It might be the first time that Carlson felt so
offended. The poor guy was just sleeping so soundly but out of nowhere, he was slapped in the face so many times. No wonder
he made trouble for
Diana on her way here. "It's not really easy for you to get into the imperial capital unharmed." Harper handed a water bottle to
Diana. "You're right." While thinking of the hardships she had gone through on the way to the imperial capital, Diana felt a little
sad. The guideposts that were replaced on the road were pointing to the dead-end numerous times. If she was not that skilled in
martial
arts, she would have been the food of some beasts. "Next time I see him, I will slap him dozens of times once again to vent my
hatred!"
Then, Zorro came back with a rabbit and a pheasant in his hand. When he saw one more person in the group, he didn't say
anything. He just skillfully cleaned the wild animals and then roasted the meat on fire. At this point, Diana was very hungry after
traveling for so long, without even stopping to rest. She squatted next to Zorro and looked at the meat on the fire. With so much
Zorro frowned a little and kept a distance from Diana but she moved closer to him. When he moved again, she moved with him
as well. They looked like two people walking around the fire. It looked quite comical to the ones watching them. "Why are you
avoiding me? It's not like I'm going to eat you!" Diana exclaimed while pointing at Zorro. She was so upset by what he was doing.
Zorro turned his face to the other side, refusing to look at Diana. From the look on her face, it was obvious that she wanted to
swallow him whole. How could he not get away from her? Besides, there were quite a lot of people in there and they only had a
little to eat. If Diana snatched the meat, the others would have nothing for food.
When another secret guard came back, his pocket was filled with wild fruits. "I found some wild fruits," he announced. Upon
hearing that there was more to eat, Diana rushed over and took a fruit. She casually wiped it on her clothes and began to eat.
When she took her first bite, her eyes lit up. .
"It's yummy! Very sweet as well."
The secret guard looked at Diana with disgust. Then, he washed the best one among the bunch and gave it to Harper. She then
gave two fruits to Shawn. He took them, expressed his thanks, and then ate the fruits in silence.
"Is there more? Please give me two more," Diana demanded, as she looked at the secret guard.
"No, you've eaten too much already!"
"Give me two more. I'm starving to death. In order to catch up with you, I haven't had a good meal since I left the South
Kingdom." Diana didn't give up and chased after the secret guard.
Upon seeing that, Harper shook her head with a smile. She had no idea how Diana had been brought up that she turned out with
that kind of personality. When she was ruthless, people would grit their teeth with hatred. But when she returned to that of a
lovely girl, they couldn't do anything to her. She looked innocent and outspoken, which made it impossible for people to
associate her actual identity with her.
"Don't chase after him, Diana. The meat is ready. You just ate something. You'll be hungry after running."
"The roasted meat is ready! That's great! I want to eat a whole rabbit!"
