Chapter 21 The Imminent War

"Sister Royal..."

In the New Delhi Manor, Sirius stood respectfully at the door of Nalia's bedroom, looking at the imperial sister who had changed her clothes and said hello with her head slightly lowered.

"Ah."

Although objectively speaking, she was temporarily living in the New Delhi Manor as a guest, Nalia did not look at Sirius twice, but just nodded slightly towards the front.

Her dress today is slightly different from when she was in the Imperial City before. If Nalia looked charming and very seductive before, then today she is not less charming, but even more attractive. A bit heroic.

Maybe this has something to do with where the two of them are going today. After all, as representatives of the royal family going to visit military camps on the border, they naturally cannot dress too gorgeously and glamorously.

In particular, Princess Nalia is very good at swordsmanship, so this armored shirt looks even more incongruous.

However, the more this happened, the more Sirius became afraid of this Valkyrie who killed him like a chicken. Just because this woman brought a large group of people to live in his place on the pretext that she had no place to live temporarily, he now felt uncomfortable sleeping at night.

When he thought that Nalia might be hiding somewhere and eavesdropping at any time, he felt that his life was no fun at all. He even wished that he would start a war with the lizard people territory earlier, so that at least Nalia's attention would be free. It won't all be put on him.

Yes, Sirius now very much suspected that this woman did not completely trust him. She said she had no place to live just to monitor him.

So why go to such great lengths for a loser like him who has no fighting ability at all?

The letter betraying Nalia was not what he wanted to write, and even if he took a step back, it never happened in the end...

"Stop dawdling, it's time to go to the military camp today."

"Sorry, I was distracted just now."

Nalia nodded and did not take the opportunity to say anything to Sirius again.

The two of them were sitting in the gorgeous carriage that Nalia rode when she came to Anka that day, and Hannah was the groom. Under her control, the two horses pulled the vehicle slowly down the hillside. Many civilians they met along the way , all took the initiative to give way after seeing the flag with the royal family crest hanging on the car.

They actually didn't fully know who was in the carriage. It was indeed known to many people that Imperial Princess Nalia had arrived in Anka, but Sirius's identity was not fully known to everyone.

In addition, the curtains in the carriage were tightly drawn, and only weak sunlight filtered in through the brown window screens, so no one could see Sirius inside.

"Look at you, you don't look like the second prince Sirius at all."

Nalia glanced lightly at the man sitting opposite her. There was nothing wrong with him, but he was a little different from the brother in her impression.

"Sister Huang, can you tell me what kind of person the second prince is? I can imitate his behavior."

"...You don't have to imitate him, just talk less and do more."

Sirius' words made her a little upset, because Nalia felt that she didn't actually understand her brother. When he was in the palace, his younger brother had always been a marginalized figure in the royal family.

In terms of age, she is the eldest of the empress's three children. In addition, Sirius was not good enough in all aspects, so except for some personal attendants who had taken care of him since childhood, there might not be any forces that would choose his side.

Thinking of this, Nalia's brows suddenly frowned slightly, as if she thought of something.

"Your Royal Highness, Sir Sirius, we are here."

Following Hannah's voice, the carriage slowly stopped.

When Nalia opened the curtains and looked out, Sirius also opened the car door for her in a sensible manner. The soldiers below were wearing relatively simple leather armor, and only a few generals' armor contained metal sheets and some iron rings.

The magicians are naturally relatively low-level blue-robed magicians, and there are less than five of them. Not to mention large-scale siege magic, it may be difficult for these people to cast some defensive magic.

Nalia frowned slightly when she saw this scene, and her disgust for the fat Earl Luther became more and more intense.

If he hadn't come here now to pretend to be in the same camp as them, he probably wouldn't have seen such a scene, right?

"Your Highness the Princess! Your Highness the Second Prince!"

When Sirius and Nalia passed by these soldiers, they quite neatly shouted out the minimum respect that imperial soldiers should have when facing the royal family.

But most people actually don't have much expectations for their arrival.

Nalia probably knew what they were thinking, so when she walked to the military camp commander's tent, she didn't say some polite words immediately, but went straight to the topic.

"How is the situation over there with the lizard people?"

"Reporting to the Princess, our people have received battle reports from the front line, and the current situation is not optimistic."

"what?"

Sirius couldn't help but ask a question because he was surprised that the plot was different from what he thought, but he was immediately pushed back by the unkind eyes of Nalia on the side.

Okay, since he doesn't have any combat power, it really doesn't make much sense whether he gets involved in these things or not.

But Sirius, who was stepping aside at this moment, couldn't help but murmur in his heart, wondering why Anka's plot advancement seemed to be different from what he had written before?

Could it be that Nalia's early arrival has advanced the development of the plot, causing the war that was originally going to break out in a month to have already started now...

The conversation between Nalia and the commander continued, and through listening in, he also learned that this attack was indeed the battle he thought.

But the problem is... without the eldest prince's large army, they really can't defeat him!
