Chapter 429 Challenge

"What happened to the wound on Edward's face?!" Although he was angry in his heart, Dario still retained the last of his reason. He knew that he could not fight the newly promoted CEO in front of the investigation bureau anyway. .

"Didn't you listen carefully just now?" Sigmund pretended to dig out his ears, "That's what he hit himself last night, maybe he had a mental problem when he was fighting someone before."

"You are also a Transcendent, so you should be very aware of the effects of mental confusion. Maybe this is a way for Edward to relieve stress."

"What about the shoe prints on his face? Could it be that he put his face under your feet?" Dario sneered.

"How do you know?" Sigmund pretended to be surprised.

"Henrik, you..." Dario trembled with anger, but Sigmund stood opposite him with a smile.

"Take him back, think about it, and don't be so impulsive in doing things in the future." Sigmund said meaningfully.

Behind him, the two transcendents let go of Edward, who was bruised and swollen. To be honest, although it seemed that he was beaten miserably, Edward had no memory of the whole process.

He just remembered that he entered a room of the Bureau of Investigation, closed and opened his eyes, and then became what he is now.

At this moment, Sigmund walked up to Dario with a smile, and then suddenly reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

Swish!

Dario's body dodged backward subconsciously, dodging Sigmund's palm, but what he didn't expect was that Sigmund raised his arm, paused slightly in mid-air but did not fall, as if he was moving towards the distance Someone said hello.

After finishing the whole action, Sigmon pretended to be surprised and looked at Dario who distanced himself from him.

"Haha, I'm just saying hello to others, why are you hiding?" Sigmund joked.

"I see, are you afraid of me?"

"What did you say?!" Dario was furious, his face flushed red, but just when he was about to get angry, a familiar voice came from behind.

"Good morning, Henryk."

His body froze slightly, Dario slowly turned his head, and then he saw Charlotte walking down from the carriage.

At this moment, all the anger turned into embarrassment and embarrassment. Thinking of his actions just now, he felt inexplicably sad and indignant.

"Haha, you are afraid of me." Sigmund put on a smug look, looked past Dario, and waved, "Good morning, Charlotte."

At this moment, Dario suddenly calmed down, all his emotions were restrained, and he stared at Sigmund with cold eyes.

"Very well, Henrik, I remember the humiliation you brought me today. On the celebration day two days later, I will officially challenge you. I will prove in front of everyone that you, the so-called guardian Knight, useless!"

After speaking, he glanced at Edward, turned around, and strode away, even ignoring Charlotte who passed by.

"What's going on?" Charlotte asked puzzled.

"As for the postponement of the celebration day, I think I have the best excuse now." Sigmund said with a smile.

Not many people knew about the conflict between the two in front of the Investigation Bureau, but after noon, a breaking news spread throughout Abetus.

"What? The celebration day is postponed by 10 days?!"

"How can this be?"

Coffee shops, pubs, various public and private gatherings, everyone is talking about the postponement of the celebration day.

"But the princess and the prince's birthdays will be in two days. The celebration date has already been set, why is it postponed?"

"It is said that 10 days later will be the queen's birthday. Everyone should know that the queen passed away not long after giving birth to the princess and prince. His Majesty the king and the princess probably want to take this opportunity to remember the queen." Someone explained.

"What a kind princess."

"Our king is also very respectable." Everyone was discussing, and some elders even started to talk about the interesting things about King Fred when he was young.

But at this moment, an inappropriate voice was heard in the crowd.

"You have all been deceived, the truth of the matter is not like this." Someone said mysteriously.

"Is there something else to hide?"

"Of course." The man who spoke looked proud. "I also heard the news from a friend. The postponement of the celebration day is not to commemorate the queen, but because of the jealousy between the two men!"

"Jealous?" People are naturally interested in gossip, whether true or not, and among all the gossip, those related to the royal family are naturally more likely to attract everyone's attention.

"It's our highness the princess." The man who spoke deliberately lowered his voice, and the noise around him gradually became smaller, and everyone listened carefully.

"Everyone should know that Princess Charlotte chose Henrik from the Bureau of Investigation as a guardian knight to accompany her to attend the ceremony." After a day or two of fermentation, the identity of Henrik's CEO has become known to everyone.

"There is such a thing, and then?" Someone echoed.

"Do you remember two or three years ago? At that time, a very outstanding young man appeared in Abetus. Everyone agreed that that person was the only one who was worthy of Princess Charlotte."

"You mean Dario Scarlid?" Someone remembered Dario's name.

"It's him!" The man who spoke was sure, "Daario has returned to Abetus, and as far as I know, the two of them have had a head-on conflict because of Princess Charlotte!"

"In order to compete for Princess Charlotte, Dario will challenge Henrik's identity as a guardian knight on the day of the celebration!"

"According to tradition, as the guardian knight of the princess, Henrik cannot refuse any challenge. Although according to tradition, the challenge of the guardian knight is just a formality, but for the sake of his beloved woman, it is very likely that the two most outstanding young men of Elan Life and death will face each other!"

"The chief executive officer of the investigation bureau has a prominent status. Dario has been famous for a long time and is very powerful. Under such circumstances, as the challenged person, Henrik certainly needs to prepare seriously for a period of time, so the postponement of the celebration day is a matter of course. thing."

"So that's it!" Hearing the man's explanation, everyone immediately became excited.

"The knight duel, Abetus has not been so lively for a long time. Guess, who will be the final victor, Henrik or Dario?"

"I bet on Henryk, he is the one chosen by the Duke, and he must not be too bad."

"I choose Dario, he is my idol!"

Soon amidst the quarrels and discussions, private bets were set up one after another, and rumors about the two knights competing for the princess spread to every corner of Abetus at an extremely fast speed.

At the same time, in the room of the Radiant Cathedral, Bishop Norius was seriously discussing the impact of the postponement of the celebration day.
