I’ll Come Clean! I Am The King Of Lolan Novel! - Chapter 57
Chapter 57: Let’s Find Him Now!
At this moment, in the study, Kyle was throwing a mini tantrum.
“I really don’t know why I can’t think of a problem that was given by some foreign barbarians. My Lolan Empire is so vast and my ministers are supposed to be so intelligent.
“All of you have really disappointed me!”
A few important ministers in the palace stood by the side and lowered their heads as they were being reprimanded by Kyle.
In fact, they were all also filled with anxiety. They were all ministers of the Lolan Empire. They would rise and fall together, should anything bad happen, every one of them would fall together.
Seeing that the three-day deadline was about to arrive, they — the rulers and ministers of the Lolan Empire — had so many people yet they could not even solve the first problem from a barbaric country.
If this news were to spread, the neighboring countries would probably laugh their heads off.
If the reputation of the Lolan Empire was damaged, then it would be difficult for them, as ministers, to show their statuses to others to be respected.
Right when Kyle was getting restless, Rosen, who constantly pondered about the puzzle in his mind, suddenly raised his head.
“Your Majesty, I suddenly thought of someone who might be able to turn the tide at this moment.
“Your Majesty, why don’t you go to that tiny tavern in the street and ask for the answer?
“I’m sure if Lorne isn’t able to solve the problem, perhaps he would have other indirect ways to avoid the loss of our country’s reputation!”
In an instant, Kyle suddenly turned his head!
“Yes, yes, yes. My beloved minister is right. How could I have forgotten about Lorne?
“He must know. He must be able to solve such a problem!
“I was so anxious that I did not think of other people such as he. Just because the palace officials can’t do it, doesn’t mean that my brother can’t do it.
“He is able to do what others can’t and knows what others don’t know. He should be able to easily solve such a simple problem!”
Kyle could not help but clap his hands from that suggestion. His originally wild emotions suddenly dissipated into a spring breeze.
He danced as if he had already gotten the answer to the first question raised by the Spartan people.
However, other than Abner, who had never been to the tavern, the other ministers present all looked confused.
Andrew and Allen looked as if they had suddenly realized something. They were secretly angry that they had forgotten such an important person.
They had all seen it with their own eyes, and they had come into close contact with Lorne.
Rosen and the others knew deeply how magical that young man was.
It was indeed as the king had said.
He was a person who could do what others could not, and someone who knew what others did not know. He was a top-notch wonder in the world and the greatest sage in the world.
Nothing would be difficult for that young man, right?
“Your Majesty, let’s go. I will order the people to prepare carriages and horses. We must leave at once!”
“Yes, he is indeed right Your Majesty. We must set off as soon as possible!”
Several ministers were nodding their heads in agreement. All of them were extremely excited.
Not to mention them, even Kyle looked excited and happy. He could not wait to reach the tavern and have all his problems get solved.
The only person who was reluctant was Abner, he was confused with the ruckus.
Seeing the king and his other ministers dancing like crazy made him really confused.
“Your Majesty, who is the Lorne that you mentioned?
“Could it be that he can solve the problem in front of us?”
Kyle waved his hand and said directly, “I can’t explain it in a short time. Let Rosen explain it to you.
“We need to go to the tavern now. We need to come up with a strategy as soon as possible.
“Just as Rosen said, even if we can’t solve the problem in front of us, we need to think of a way to get around it!”
Rosen also pulled Abner as they made their way out.
“Go, go, go. I’ll talk to you on the way. We’re pressed for time now. We don’t have much time to waste here!”
The five-man team was very efficient. They did as they were told.
Once they made up their minds, two large carriages immediately rushed out of the palace.
Rosen and Abner sat alone in a carriage. The Duke began to speak passionately about the aforementioned person in the carriage.
He gave Abner a vivid summary and gave him a good lecture on what kind of glorious deeds and endless legends this mysterious young man had done.
Abner was stunned when he heard this.
After the carriage made several turns and drove for a few streets, it finally stopped at Silk Street.
Kyle, Andrew, and the others got off the first carriage. Then, they tidied up their appearances and quickly walked towards the tiny tavern.
Meanwhile, Rosen and Abner got off the second carriage.
At this moment, Abner was in a daze.
It was Rosen who pulled him down from the carriage that woke him up, he could not help but ask in confusion.
“Brother, is this person really as powerful as you say? I still can’t believe it!
“If it’s really as you described, doesn’t it mean that he can see everything first and predict everything like a god? Can he observe the world through ordinary trivial matters?
“Is such a person really living in seclusion in a tiny tavern and making food and wine every day?”
Rosen patted Abner on the shoulder. “This boss loves to play this game. It’s understandable that you don’t understand, but just you wait.
“As for whether it’s as mysterious as what I said, you can go in with us later and see for yourself.
“But remember, you must not reveal your true identity, or His Majesty will really send you to the grave!”
Abner hurriedly nodded.
“Then Rosen, let’s not waste time. Let’s go and see what this man is capable of!”
As he spoke, he walked faster than Rosen. Rosen, who was following behind Kyle and the others, first paused, then clapped his hands and hurriedly followed.
Soon, the five-man team appeared in Lorne’s tiny tavern.
At this moment, Lorne was leaning against the counter of the tavern. From time to time, a smile would appear on his face, as if he had figured out something that made him extremely happy.
It was not until the sound of hurried footsteps came from the door that Lorne suddenly raised his head and saw Kyle, who was walking at the front.
He thought that Kyle was here to report to him on the progress of the preparatory work. Just as he was about to speak about the matter of refined salt, he realized that there were a few people who were following behind him.
Lorne immediately rolled his eyes, and a warm smile appeared on his face. Then, he ran out of the counter.
“What a rare sight to see. I haven’t seen you guys for a while. If you don’t come to me soon, I’ll starve to death waiting for you.”
Although Kyle and the others were anxious to know what method they needed to solve the problem, they knew that they could not rush things.
They could not just suspiciously ask a random question out of the blue. So, Kyle first cupped his hands to Lorne and said, “I’ve been busy clearing the medicinal herbs on deck these days. I really couldn’t find the time to come to you.”
Then, he smiled and pulled Abner, who was walking at the back, to the front.
“We just said that we’re starving. Today, I brought you another friend. This is also a business partner with us. You can call him Boo”
Lorne first looked at Kyle with a strange look.
“Old friend, how big is this business of yours? Why do you have new people joining from time to time?”
Kyle explained with a casual smile, “I like to make friends.”
Lorne showed an understanding look, and then patted Abner’s shoulder.
“Hello, don’t have to be so polite. Just tell me what you want to eat and drink. Old friend here will pay the bill in the end anyway.
“Any friend of Charles is a friend of Lorne! We’re all brothers now.. Don’t treat me as an outsider!”
