Chapter 1614: Arriving in Calevin, just stepped off the airship

Finally here...

Stepping down from the emergency-arranged airship and walking to the edge of the docking tower, Li Ang couldn't help but show a hint of amazement in his eyes as he gazed at the white city built along the river below, and the jade-white lily-shaped tops atop the countless marble buildings within.

No wonder the capital of the West Calevin Kingdom is called Lily City; looking down from a height, these petal-shaped flower tops blooming in six directions on the roofs really do look like a vast sea of blooming lilies...

It's just that they seem a bit too white.

A dense patch of clouds overhead briefly parted, and abnormally intense sunlight shone down through the gap in the clouds. The entire snow-white city was instantly illuminated, and the scorching sunlight reflected back by those beautiful white flower tops made Li Ang squint involuntarily.

"Sir, please step back a bit!"

A somewhat flustered voice came from behind. When Li Ang turned his head, he found the security personnel responsible for maintaining order on the docking tower running over from a distance, reminding him with eyes full of anxiety:

"You can't keep looking down from above; if you do it for too long, your eyes will go blind!"

"Oh."

Squinting to quickly scan Lily City and noting the location and distribution of some buildings, Li Ang did not insist on continuing his observation. Instead, he stepped back compliantly and apologized with a smile:

"Sorry, this is my first time in Lily City, I didn't know about this. I've caused you trouble."

"No, no, it's our fault for not reminding you in time."

Seeing that this guest who had come down from the VIP cabin did not insist on continuing to enjoy the scenery, the security personnel who had run over couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Then, while wondering how this person had climbed over the cordon and why he hadn't seen him just now, he gently reminded him:

"Guest, please leave the tower as soon as possible. In a while, the airship will change berths, and it will stir up a lot of chaotic air currents. If you stand here, you might be swept off... Huh?"

After looking at the strange black-and-white mixed hair color on Li Ang's head, a flash of surprise crossed the security personnel's eyes, and then he asked somewhat uncertainly:

"Are you... a believer of the Lumen Church?"

Lumen Church?

Hearing this, Li Ang couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, then reached out to touch his hair and asked back with some curiosity:

"Why do you ask? Just because of the color of my hair?"

"Yes."

The security personnel nodded. While leading Li Ang toward the spiral staircase down the tower, he responded with a beaming smile:

"The baptism ceremony of the Lumen Church is coming up. Among the people who have come to Lily City recently, nine out of ten with black hair are believers of the Lumen Church. You..."

"You've finally arrived!"

Just as Li Ang walked down the spiral staircase, a middle-aged man with a full head of white hair came up to greet him, surrounded by two squads of guards, and introduced himself with a smile:

"Lord Li Ang, I am Vernon, the Fourth Prince of the Calevin Kingdom. On behalf of the Calevin Kingdom, I welcome your visit."

"You are too kind."

Although he already had a trump card to deal with the Ophiuchus Director, in order to leave reaction time in case of a possible sneak attack, Li Ang had been wearing the 【Heart Lake】 badge since he boarded the airship.

After casually surveying the heart-lake of this Prince Vernon and discovering it was filled with nothing but goodwill and enthusiasm, Leon's originally vigilant expression couldn't help but relax a little. He shook the palm extended toward him, then smiled and exchanged pleasantries:

"Your Highness Vernon, I am not visiting as a Prince this time, it is just a private trip. You really don't need to be so formal."

"You are being too modest."

Seeing that Li Ang's attitude was quite kind, Prince Vernon's attitude became a few degrees closer. While leading Li Ang outward, he said with a smile:

"Whether it is a private trip or an official visit, your status is that of Queen Veronica's husband, and you should receive the highest level of reception in the Calevin Kingdom.

Actually, my mother's generation, or the Deep Patriarch himself, should have come to greet you today, but you said before you came that you didn't want to make a scene, so it was changed to me, a prince, to receive you, and the number of guards was kept to a minimum... I hope you don't find it too simple."

"No, no, it's already very good. I didn't want to be noticed by too many people anyway..." This tourist running around... is actually a Prince?

Just as Li Ang and Prince Vernon were exchanging official pleasantries, the security personnel who heard their conversation turned pale and subconsciously took two steps back.

However, before he could retreat to a suitable distance, two of the guards brought by Prince Vernon followed him, moved two steps back, and grabbed him from left and right.

Hmm?

Noticing the suddenly agitated Heart Lake behind him, Li Ang couldn't help but look back, and then asked with some confusion:

"Your Highness Vernon? What is he..."

"He said something he shouldn't have to you, and he was not respectful enough to you."

After glancing at the terrified security personnel, Prince Vernon's originally "enthusiastic" Heart Lake instantly cooled down, rippling with an abnormally intense disgust and annoyance.

"A week ago, my father issued an order that if others don't ask, all citizens of the Calevin Kingdom are not allowed to take the initiative to mention the Lumen Church, but he directly asked you if you were a believer of the Lumen Church.

And what is even more unforgivable is that when facing you, a Prince, he did not show the respect he should have! His etiquette, form of address, and conversation were all substandard, and he even stood beside you without your invitation, which was presumptuous and rude!"

"..."

No... are you sick in the head?

!

After listening to this strange remark full of points to complain about, Li Ang's brows couldn't help but knit together.

Judging from Prince Vernon's words, violating the King's order is a small matter, but not showing enough respect when receiving him, a Prince, is the big matter?

Subconsciously glancing at the white-robed guards around him, and seeing the sense of "it should be so" and even some indignation on their faces, Li Ang couldn't help but frown and intervene:

"This is not his fault, I didn't reveal my identity from the beginning."

"No, this is his fault."

Seeing that Li Ang seemed to have the intention of pleading for the security personnel, Prince Vernon's smile faded, and he said with a serious expression:

"To avoid such presumptuous situations, all security personnel must stay firmly at their posts, but he did not follow the rules and left his position on his own initiative, which is why he offended you, so this is still his problem!"

"It was I who didn't take the tourist passage, climbed over the cordon, and stood at the edge of the docking tower to look at the scenery."

Feeling abnormally speechless at this kind of meaningless, bizarre debate, but embarrassed to directly slap Prince Vernon, Li Ang had to continue to argue on grounds:

"He left his position to ensure my safety, so if you calculate it this way, the problem still lies with me."

So that's how it is...

After listening to Li Ang's words, a flash of realization appeared in Prince Vernon's eyes, and he hurriedly greeted the guards behind him:

"Let him go quickly! What happened just now was not his fault! You caught the wrong person!"

Eh~ That's more like it!

"Come! Arrest the criminal, Lord Li Ang!"

"..."

Ah??????
