Chapter 734 You Little Idio
The wooden statue was sent flying for over three meters by Amy’s kick, crashing to the ground where it crushed a large patch of flowers and made a large crater in the garden.
“Your Highness!”
“Are you alright, Your Highness!?”
“Hurry up and get His Highness out of that thing!”
A bunch of people rushed forward and scurried around, trying to prise off the birdman’s head.
Mag and Amy looked on with dumbstruck expressions at the sight of the birdman statue on the ground. Its golden wings had been carved in an extremely vivid and lifelike manner, with each and every feather completely independent of each other, and all of them were shimmering with a faint metallic hue under the sunlight.
The bird’s beak and eyes had also been exquisitely carved, and the craftsmanship really was quite exceptional.
However, it was indeed quite a jarring sight to see such a massive bird standing at the center of the royal palace in a completely stationary manner, so it was no wonder that Amy had been startled to the point of kicking it flying.
If Mag had been the one to emerge from the carriage first, then he would also most likely have done the same thing.
However, Mag suddenly realized something upon seeing the panicked guards running around like headless chickens. Your Highness? Could it be… that the carpenter third prince is in that wooden statue?
Alex had very few memories of this third prince as the latter was completely obsessed with carpentry and woodwork, and had absolutely zero interest in inheriting the throne.
In fact, he never attended any events unless his attendance was strictly mandatory.
There were even many people who had already forgotten that the Roth Empire even had a third prince.
His talent is extraordinary. As expected, he really isn’t cut out to be a prince, Mag praised internally at the sight of the exquisitely crafted wooden statue.
“Stop! Stop! Which idiot is trying to tear my head off? I’m going to be decapitated if you keep that up!” A slightly tender and youthful voice sounded.
There were two people currently in the process of pulling at the head of the wooden statue, and they hurriedly stopped what they were doing, allowing the bird’s head to clunk onto the ground.
“Ugh…”
A pained groan sounded from within the bird.
“Your Highness!”
The two men hurriedly picked up the bird’s head again.
“That’s enough! Just help me up first, you idiots!” A resigned voice sounded from within the bird’s head.
The guards hurriedly helped the birdman to his feet.
Amy hadn’t held back at all with that kick, and several of the feathers on the birdman’s chest had been cracked, along with a few feathers on his back. Some parts had also been stained by the grass and mud, making it appear like a ruined artistic masterpiece.
“Capture them at once!”
The leader of the guards waved a hand, and several saber-wielding guards surrounded Mag’s carriage to detain them.
The butler who had brought Mag to the royal palace wore a tense expression as he said, “This is the chef that His Highness, the second prince, invited from Chaos City to cook for His Majesty. Please forgive them for this unfortunate accident.”
The butler had clearly also already realized that the man inside the birdman statue could only be the third prince, and was feeling very flustered as a result.
The second prince was quite powerful, and was heavily favored by the king, but the fact of the matter was that Amy had attacked the third prince, and that was a crime punishable by death.
Furthermore, the second prince would definitely completely detach himself from the incident and cut all ties with Mag and his daughter in order to uphold his image.
That could spell trouble for him as well.
The leader of the guards strode forward and glared at the butler as he said, “Do you know whom you just attacked? Even if you’re from the second prince’s manor, all of you must be detained today! Let me see just who has the guts to attack His Highness, the third prince!”
“B-but…”The butler was at a loss for what to do.
“Capture them at once!” the leader of the guards repeated in a cold voice.
All of the guards converged around the carriage, having already drawn their sabers. However, all of them were looking at Mag and Amy with cautious expressions on their faces. To be able to send the third prince flying with a single kick despite the fact that he was wearing his heavy wooden costume indicated that she possessed strength that was at least comparable to that of a 2nd-tier knight.
I should’ve checked the horoscope before coming out today. Mag sighed internally as he shielded Amy with his body. He was contemplating whether he should bring up Krassu to intimidate these guards, but he didn’t know if that would work in the royal palace.
“Stand down, you idiots!”
A grumpy voice sounded from within the bird’s head. The birdman flapped his wings toward his belly a few times, looking like a maladroit penguin as he did so. He seemed to be trying to press something, but was unable to reach it, and was putting on a rather adorkable display.
The leader of the guards hesitated momentarily before indicating for the guards to get back for now.
“Meow~”
Ugly Duckling looked on for while before bursting into laughter in Amy’s arms.
“Look, Father, that birdman is really ugly, but it’s so funny!”
Amy also faltered momentarily before bursting into laughter.
Mag also wore a rather peculiar expression on his face. The previously grand and imposing bird was now looking like an uncoordinated penguin, and it really was quite a hilarious sight to behold.
Even the guards’ faces were flushed as they struggled to suppress their mirth.
The birdman skipped on the spot in a frustrated manner as he yelled, “What are you idiots looking at? Hurry up and get over here! Smooth down that feather that’s jutting out on my stomach, and adjust my wings so they’re straight again; I can’t reach them!”
“Hahaha, this is hilarious!” Amy was laughing so vigorously that she almost flung Ugly Duckling into the air.
Meanwhile, all of the guards rushed toward the birdman to smooth down his feathers and adjust his wings.
“Crack! Crack!”
Following two loud cracks, a slit opened up between the body and the head of the birdman, and a young man with a large head jumped out from within while clasping his hand over his bright red nose.
The leader of the guards strode over with a concerned look, and asked, “Are you alright, Your Highness?”
“Why wouldn’t I be alright, you idiot? I only fell on my nose.” The young man removed his hand from his nose and gave the guard a dismissive wave, only for blood to begin dripping down from his nostrils.
“His Highness is bleeding!”
“Hurry up and get a doctor!”
All of the guards were instantly thrown into a panicked frenzy again.
“You really are a bunch of idiots; it’s not like I’m going to die from a nosebleed.” The young man pulled out a white handkerchief from his pocket and stuffed one of its corners up his nose. He then turned to Mag and Amy with furrowed brows and an intrigued look in his eyes as he said, “I don’t recognize you two idiots; is this your first time here in the royal palace?”
He then turned to Amy with a curious look, and asked, “And you there, you little idiot, you’re not very old, but you sure have a keen eye. Why do you say my statue is ugly?”
Amy shook her head as she looked at the young man, and said, “Little Mushroom Head, your head is really big, but your eyesight is really bad!”
