Six years ago, Gilbert brought Thales, who had just returned to the kingdom, here to avoid a wave of enemy temptations.

And when Thales became the owner of Mindis Hall six years later, this place was naturally used by him - although Gilbert believed that with the disclosure of Thales's identity and the arrival of the royal guards, this place would

It should be "no longer useful".

Thales locked the secret door, opened the thick cloth covering the luminous stone, and took a look at the small holes that could monitor all parts of the Mindis Hall in the dim light:

In the front hall, Mallos was politely sending the restless Bachelor Julio out. Perhaps he would suspect that the restless Highness had done something to tease the teacher again.

In the corridor, Glover and his colleagues stood dutifully at their posts with ungrateful expressions.

In the garden, Conmuto and Piloga, who had fought with Thales, were chatting about something while patrolling. Thales lazily named the gathering "Prince's Special Sandbag Exchange Meeting."

In the kitchen, Doyle was squatting in the corner bored and hopeless, biting into a long piece of buttered bread and watching the servants busy preparing for lunch.

Thales took a deep breath and fell down on the sofa in the secret room.

After taking a few deep breaths, in the darkness surrounded by walls, he leaned against the sofa and rubbed his brows, feeling a sense of peace that he had not seen for a long time.

Just like...the broken caves where beggars live in abandoned houses.

Although air leaks from all sides, it is solid and reliable.

Protect all the weaknesses that he can't take into account.

Thales rested for a while, sat up again, pulled back the covers of the other luminous stones, and the secret room became brighter.

The Duke muttered something, approached an iron plate next to the sofa, and touched some knobs on it.

A few seconds later, with the gentle sound of machinery, Thales pushed open the iron plate divided into two sides and opened his private storage room - the previous owner of Mindis Hall should also have used this place frequently, but Thales could

Unexpectedly, after the Bloody Year, this place was emptied by King Kessel who ascended the throne.

What comes into view is a pile of disorderly debris.

Looking in front of him, Teresa paused.

A few seconds later, Thales took a deep breath, walked to the pitifully empty weapons rack, and looked at the biggest protagonist - the reportedly very valuable Imperial sword "Warning".

The hilt of the sword feels strange to the touch, but it feels good in the hand, making people want to draw the sword.

If he didn't think of its previous owner's appearance and the trouble it brought to him every time he held the sword, Thales would probably like this sword more.

The Duke lowered his head glumly and grabbed the dagger he was so familiar with next to the warning person.

The jc's handle was cold, and Thales couldn't help but think of it and the hardships he had experienced.

But its sheath is warm and comfortable.

Just like the two people behind it.

Since entering the Mindis Hall, Thales has had fewer opportunities to take JC with him - the martial arts classes held every morning and evening require him to go back and forth to remove and reinstall the dagger, but Thales doesn't want too many people to see it.

To it, even if it is the personal bodyguards of Duke Xinghu and the Royal Guards that he should theoretically trust the most.

But when Thales pulled out the familiar dagger, the feeling of peace of mind still made him feel more relieved.

Thales sighed, reluctant to put it down, and turned to the other side.

The black masked cloth that Yara gave him was lying neatly folded, and its material was still unknown to Thales.

Thales smiled unconsciously.

But the smile disappeared when he saw the next collection.

It was a string of bone-yellow bracelets, and the crystal red long fangs at the tail were particularly ferocious.

It's like... it was pulled out of nowhere.

Thales resisted the bad memories behind this bracelet and looked at the next item.

That's a map.

Well, it is a detailed topographic map of a certain palace in the capital of a certain continent in this world.

He sighed again.

Thales folded the map up again. Julio's words just now made him realize that not only the church, but even if this map was seen by others, he would only be in more trouble.

When the Duke was folding the map, an ancient piece of drawing paper fell out of the map, causing Thales to freeze.

That's a...sketch of a girl.

It was found by Thales in a book in Mindis Hall a long time ago.

The artist's sketching skills are probably not very good, at least not to the discernment of Master Uhlan, but the signature behind it is extraordinary - at least after Thales finished watching "End Calendar Year 11, Naika" in Exter

Ru and Tormund, Exeter and Star agreed to deal with the border issue.

Thales stuffed the map and sketch into the mezzanine under the cabinet, then looked up and saw a...

Black-rimmed glasses.

Thales took it off in a daze, slightly lost in thought.

He subconsciously put on his glasses, and sure enough, the moment he opened his eyes behind the lenses, a wave of dizziness hit him, forcing him to take them off again.

Thales sighed and finished packing his things.

Here are all his personal collections since arriving in this world.

Each piece represents a different past.

Wait, there's one more thing,

Thales turned back indifferently, picked up the book "Acts of the Sunset" from the sofa, took out the sky blue invitation, without opening it, and stuffed it into the mezzanine without caring.

A few seconds later, Thales pulled out a blank piece of draft paper from another page, placed it on the cover of the book, and sat down on the sofa.

He looked at the blank paper and sighed slowly,

When he was still in the Northland, the relaxed environment gave him a clear goal:

Survive and return home.

However, since returning to the stars, meeting the king in person, meeting old friends, preparations for banquets, cram school lessons, visitors to the temple, including the invitations from the past few days, when all the strange and familiar things came flooding in, especially for a long time.

After being hit and beaten, Thales, who had gained experience in being beaten, was a little overwhelmed.

And today Julio's casual words alerted him even more.

This is no longer Northland.

He is no better than before.

Even Thales had to admit in frustration that for him, everything was starting over again and everything was strange.

He needs to readjust.

Just like adapting to Longxiao City and the great desert before.

Now, he needs to adapt to Yongxing City again.

Thales exhaled, took out his pen, and touched the pen tip lightly to the paper.

etc.

In order to prevent someone from discovering this piece of paper and deducing clues from it (after all, even a fool like the Fallen Starman can find the secret of Leland cardboard), he could not write in a too obvious way.

Thales' thoughts moved and the tip of his pen rustled.

[One, two hundred and fifty gold coins]

Thales wrote the first entry.

I originally wanted to write "silly big guy" directly, but I was afraid that the reference would be too obvious, so I changed it to this pronoun.

Well, you can't count on him too much.

But he knows other great people...

For example, occult.

So Thales pondered for a while and wrote a small item below in a smaller font:

[1. Red-eyed little brother]

Thales was silent for a while.

Something to do with this...

Thales initially wanted to write "dog leg knife", but suddenly realized that Yara's weapon was also registered at the Sunset Bar.

He needs to be more careful.

Especially as Gilbert said, his identity is not what it used to be, and every move he makes may bring disaster to the past.

So Thales raised his pen and wrote:

[2.Big sister]

This is the first priority.

However, Thales must also see one thing: although he is a prince, he is alone and helpless in the stars.
To be continued...
