Chapter 15 The Second Prince of the Much-anticipated
Allen knew that someone would definitely stare at him at this dinner, and Allen himself didn't mind being stared at by them.
As long as the system keeps hiding its true strength, all they can see are Allen's external changes.
And without showing some special features, how can we let our Second Prince invest more money in the black dragon?
Allen had a big appetite today, and he quickly finished the two cows, and he looked like he was still unsatisfied.
At this time, an old servant walked towards Allen.
After seeing Allen, he first bowed and said: "Dear Mr. Black Dragon, Prince Charlie invites you to have dinner. I wonder if Mr. Black Dragon is interested?"
After hearing that there was still food to eat, Allen agreed without thinking.
But what Allen didn't expect was that the old housekeeper actually had the key to the iron cage and opened the cage in front of Allen.
It seems that his status here is not low!
"Old man, aren't you afraid of me?"
"You are out of sight now. You are a friend of His Highness the Prince, that is, a guest of the manor. Since you are a guest, there is nothing to be afraid of!"
Allen had to admire how well-spoken this housekeeper was, much better than the timid maid before.
Soon, led by the old butler, Allen arrived at a temporary open-air restaurant.
Prince Charlie was already sitting here waiting, and behind him stood Mark, the captain of the guard.
There is only one dining table here, right in front of Charlie, filled with carefully cooked food.
In front of Allen was a huge tablecloth filled with a variety of fresh meats.
"Compared to meat that smells like blood, I actually prefer to eat cooked meat!" Allen said.
Prince Charlie was stunned for a moment!
He didn't expect that Heilong would be the first to put forward his opinion when they met!
"It's my fault that I haven't taken care of my good friend's taste. I will ask the servants to pay attention to it next."
"Then, His Highness the Prince invited me over, not just for dinner, right? Tell me, what are your requirements? Can I agree?" Allen got straight to the point, showing that he actually had the possibility of a deal.
Seeing Black Dragon like this, Charlie stopped being polite: "In two days, it will be the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Principality of Steel. I hope to make my father and mother happy on that day..."
"Then you want to ride me to attend the ceremony that day? Your Highness, you should know that this is impossible!" Allen guessed his purpose, so he took over his words and said.
Once a dragon accepts someone riding on its back, it proves that the dragon recognizes the person. The moment the human rides on the dragon's back, it is equivalent to signing a contract between them.
And this person became a dragon knight!
This is unacceptable to all dragons. The proud dragon clan even looks down on the dragon knight, thinking it is the shame of the dragon clan.
The same goes for Allen, it's just natural.
"No, you misunderstood. I will only stand at the end of your back instead of riding on your back. I can pay you some reward for this, 1,000 gold coins, what do you think?"
Allen thought about it carefully. If this was really the case, apart from losing some face, he seemed to have no other losses.
"I want 3,000 gold coins, and they must all be exchanged for magic crystals!"
"Huh?" Charlie didn't react a little. Is this an agreement?
He didn't expect Allen to agree so easily. He was already prepared to fail.
"Okay, no problem!" Charlie agreed decisively.
Allen couldn't help but feel a little sad. He was already thinking about how to fight for the throne at the age of ten. In his previous life, when he was ten years old, he seemed to be playing in the mud in the field.
When Charlie stands on Allen's back, it will only make the civilians who do not understand this knowledge think that His Royal Highness the Prince has tamed the black dragon and became a dragon knight, thus supporting him more instead of his brother's succession.
More importantly, he wanted the Iron Duke and officials to see that he had the potential to become a dragon knight.
"Can you pay some deposit first?" Allen said.
"No problem!" Charlie was very happy now, and he was very happy to agree to anything.
According to the market price of magic crystals, 100 gold coins can probably be exchanged for one magic crystal, which means that Alan can get about 30 in the end.
As a prince, Charlie also has to practice every day, so he has a certain amount of magic crystals every month.
Although it is not in line with the rules to overdraft in advance, who makes him a prince?
"Remember, it must be a standard size!" Allen reminded.
…
Because of the upcoming ceremony, the patrol work in Steel City has been tightened.
Most of the monsters hidden in the city have been cleared out. This ceremony represents the face of the Iron Principality, and there cannot be any mistakes.
A man wearing a black rag cloak entered the Steel City after being inspected.
"Ha!" After entering the city, he looked at the surrounding scene: "What a prosperous city!"
…
Two days passed quickly.
On this day of the ceremony, as the eldest son, Pedro had to replace his father, the Iron Archduke, to entertain envoys from various countries.
Pedro also wants to use this to establish good relations with envoys from various countries so as to gain their support in the future.
The Wells Empire, as the suzerain state, sent the legion commander Andre stationed in the Iron Principality as an envoy to attend this ceremony.
This is also the person Pedro needs to focus on wooing.
Seeing that the military parade was about to begin, Steel Duke Stuart asked: "Where is your brother?"
"We have sent people to look for him, but there is no news yet. Don't worry, father, nothing will happen to Charlie as long as Mark follows him."
An epic bodyguard, this was a treatment that even the eldest prince did not receive at the beginning. This shows how much the Grand Duke of Steel favors his youngest son.
This is also the reason why Pedro has always had a serious sense of crisis.
Military parades have always been an important opportunity to demonstrate national strength to other countries and can effectively deter other countries.
For this reason, many kings will spare no effort in military parades.
The Principality of Steel is a "young" country, and because it is rich in steel, it has very rich resources in armaments.
So in the following military parade, every troop participating in the parade was wearing hard armor, and no one was without it.
Then came the engineers on horseback pulling various chariots to siege the city and plunder the territory, allowing envoys from various countries to see the huge weapons reserves of the Iron Principality.
But as the military parade was coming to an end, the Iron Duke still didn't see his youngest son, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Pedro, send someone to find your brother again..."
"Roar~"
A dragon roar came from the rear of the army, and the onlookers of the Iron Principality and everyone in the stands were startled.
Immediately afterwards, people saw a "huge" black dragon following the last army to the parade square.
"Look, there's someone on the back of that black dragon." Someone exclaimed.
"That's His Highness the Second Prince! Oh, my God! He tamed a black dragon!"
"He became a dragon knight!"
…
Not only the people of the Iron Principality, but also the envoys from various countries were exclaiming.
The original arrangement did not say that a black dragon would appear!
The Principality of Steel actually controls a young black dragon!
And the child on the back of the black dragon turned out to be the prince of the Iron Duchy!
Charlie, standing on the back of the black dragon, kept waving to the Iron Duke in the stands.
"Father, look, I'm riding a dragon!"
Charlie is acting like a naughty child showing his favorite toy to his father.
In order to match Charlie's performance, Allen kept releasing his dragon power all the time.
The Iron Duke smiled and said to the envoys: "What a naughty boy!"
Charlie's move was something that the Iron Duke had not expected, but he didn't mean to blame him too much.
Since Charlie can command the black dragon, it is possible that the black dragon will be controlled by the Iron Principality and will be an effective deterrent to other countries in the next few hundred years.
If they hadn't felt the power of the dragon that belongs to the dragon clan, these envoys would have doubted whether Allen was a real dragon?
After all, who would dare to believe that a dragon would be willing to listen to a child?
Although Charlie did not actually ride the black dragon, his performance today has proved that he has the possibility of becoming a dragon knight.
This child’s future achievements will not be low!
This is the inner thought of everyone present.
Knight Commander Mark has been following the black dragon to prevent accidents from happening at any time.
At this moment, Andre, the commander of the Wells Empire's legion, saw that His Royal Highness Pedro, who was behind them, had dug his nails into his flesh.
