I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 175 - 151: Royal City of Ozulik_3
If we linger any longer, we'll probably get into trouble.
After Rogel and the others left, only one disgraced, dejected man and the surrounding onlookers remained.
"The people of this Royal City are really arrogant."
Noemi wrinkled her nose.
"Not all of them, most people wouldn't act like that."
Lina shrugged.
She had a more objective view.
Indeed, those two were just a minority; most people wouldn't show their disdain even if they felt it inwardly.
"Yas, what were you doing just now? If you had killed that man, we would have been in big trouble!"
Mira turned to look at Yas behind her, speaking sternly.
"...Sorry, it won't happen again."
Yas wore an apologetic look, then sincerely apologized to Rogel.
"I'm sorry, Captain Rogel, I acted impulsively and shouldn't have taken matters into my own hands. You can punish me."
Rogel couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
"Don't say it like that, there's no need for talk of punishment."
He waved his hand dismissively.
"You weren't wrong. When someone is being unreasonable, just shut them up."
"Your mistake was not controlling the degree."
"First, although his words were foul, they weren't worthy of death."
"Second, if your punch had landed, he definitely would have died, and that would cause big trouble."
"Be more mindful in the future."
Rogel still reminded Yas.
Honestly, if it weren't for Mira, Yas was probably the calmest one on their ship.
"Yes."
Yas nodded.
"Ah, this Royal City is quite something, giving us such a show as soon as we landed."
Rogel sighed, then glanced at a large tavern nearby.
"This tavern looks nicely decorated, let's go in and see if there's any good food."
"The taverns in the Royal City must have lots of delicious food!"
Rogel called out and then strode into the tavern.
Hearing about good food, Noemi quickly followed.
"Two foodies."
Lina found it a bit amusing, and led Yas and Mira inside as well.
As soon as Rogel and the others entered, an attendant approached, asking if they would prefer the main hall or a private room.
Rogel wasn't short on money, so he called for a private room and intended to enjoy a hearty meal with his crew.
However, as he reached the second floor, he suddenly heard the discussions of two strangers below.
"...I heard that the Third Prince, who's been missing for a long time, returned not long ago!"
"The one who's always writing poetry? How did he come back?"
"Isn't it obvious, of course he came back for the sword ceremony..."
This made Rogel furrow his brow and stop in his tracks.
Loves writing poetry?
After pondering for a moment, he told Lina and the others to start ordering, as he wanted to gather some information, and then headed back down.
He went to the front desk, grabbed a nice bottle of wine, and sat down at the two strangers' table with a smile.
"Gentlemen, may I intrude for a moment?"
Upon hearing this, the two men gave Rogel a wary glance.
"Who are you?"
Rogel wasn't bothered by their wariness and smiled, pouring wine into their glasses.
"My name is An Zhi; I'm a merchant from out of town."
"I'm new here and don't know much about the Royal City. I accidentally overheard you talking about a prince, and I'm quite interested. Could you perhaps tell me more?"
Rogel smiled broadly, then pushed the wine glasses over and called the waiter to bring two more good dishes.
Seeing this, the two men slowly relaxed, looked at the wine in Rogel's hand, and gradually smiled.
"Oh, no need to be polite, please sit, you're a friend from afar, let's have a drink!"
"I'm Toris, and he's Angke."
Toris, quite the social sort, invited Rogel to sit and introduced himself.
"There's nothing secretive about the prince's matters, lots of people know. Angke and I just heard about it during our free time recently, haha."
Toris laughed heartily.
"That Third Prince likes writing poetry? Really?" Rogel inquired.
Toris took a sip of wine, exhaled with a hiss.
"How could it be fake? Almost everyone on Ozuric Island knows."
"The Late Princess Consort's three princes each have their own talents. The First Prince is valiant, the Second Prince is adept at governance, and the Third Prince, well..."
"Hahaha, he likes writing poetry!"
At this point, Toris and Angke exchanged a laugh, seemingly finding it amusing.
"What's the Third Prince's name?"
Rogel asked directly.
To be honest, he was still a bit skeptical of his guess.
It couldn't be that the poet he randomly rescued at sea was the Third Prince of the Thousand Islands Kingdom?
"The First Prince is called Lai Wei, the Second Prince is Anderson, and as for the Third Prince... he's called... called... "
When it came to the Third Prince, Toris paused, seemingly having trouble remembering.
"Ladi."
Angke supplied.
"Right, the Third Prince is called Ladi!"
"Oh, my memory!"
Toris slapped his forehead, having realized suddenly.
Hearing their conversation, Rogel felt his suspicion was likely true.
Kadi, that kid, was using an alias; his original name should be Ladi, the Third Prince of the Thousand Islands Kingdom. That's why he left the Gelin and returned to the Royal City of Ouzelik.
"Roughly when did he return?"
"I think... about a week ago."
"Why, brother An Zhi, are you a fan of Prince Ladi?"
Toris teased.
