I won't pick up the trash i threw away again

Chapter-97

If it was to go to the detached palace, of course, he had to go.

"I'll be right back."

Ver brought the documents he had brought to the aide's office and went back to Kalian.

In the meantime, Kalian, dressed in a neat coat, was holding a large box in his hand.

At other times, the servants would have made a fuss saying that they would hold it, but for some reason, they did not say anything.

It was the same with Ver. He just looked at what was inside the box and smiled.

"He will like it."

"I hope so."

A faint smile was drawn on Kalian's lips.

"Then, let's go."

They headed to the detached palace located in the deepest part of the Imperial Palace, a little deeper than the inner palace.

The detached palace was very beautiful. The garden was full of golden royal roses and there was a large fountain in the center.

In the center of the fountain, there's a stone statue of a baby angel carrying a large water bucket which was continuously pouring out clear water.

It was just after Kalian and his party passed the fountain.

Step step step step

An urgent sound of footsteps was heard from somewhere.

After a while, the bushes beside Kalian shook and a boy about the height of his waist popped out.

His blue hair, a little lighter than Kalian's, fluttered softly in the wind. Under the sunlight, his clear skin stood out.

The boy hugged Kalian by the waist, but no one stopped him.

It was the same with Kalian.

Instead of scolding him for being rude or asking 'what are you doing', he smiled softly and looked at the boy.

"Hess."

When Kalian called his name, the boy, who was burying his face in his waist, lifted his head and looked up at Kalian.

The sky-blue eyes that resembled the sky shone brightly.

The boy smiled brightly, revealing his white, well-groomed teeth.

Sir Hiltine had tasted every food I was going to eat first to make sure it wasn't poisonous.

It's a pity that I couldn't eat with others, but if they had seen this, it would have been very embarrassing.

Hiltine not only distinguished poison but also taught me how to distinguish it.

"The most basic way is to distinguish it with silver. Silver is the best tool to detect poison, but there are many more poisons in the world that cannot be detected by silver."

"What do you do in that case?"

"The second is to tell by taste or smell, but it is dangerous in many ways. People who are not resistant can die if they eat it incorrectly."

Die? Just hearing it gave me chills.

"The third way is to feed the suspect first."

"To the other person?"

"Yes. If it was poisoned, they would never eat it."

Ah, indeed. It made sense.

The carriage, which had been running diligently, stopped in front of the inn. It was the inn we stayed in today.
