“I have a bold plan.”

Kang De looked at the knight beside him and said seriously.

Cleveland shook.

The Star Knight of Goethe, the embodiment of courage. He was famous in the human world for his upright personality and superb skills. He had always been fearless and invincible until today.

It was not until today that he discovered that other than his father, there was another man in the world who could make his heart tremble and feel fear with just a sentence.

!!

However, compared to his dignified and decisive father, the man in front of him seemed to be the other extreme.

If his father had a plan, it would definitely be a meticulous and flawless strategy. It could be swift and decisive, or it could be silent. Conspiracy and open schemes were at his fingertips, and his methods were extremely shrewd.

If Kang De had a bold plan, especially for him, the hidden meaning was…

—You can cross-dress!

The knight said angrily, “I reject!”

Without giving Kang De a chance to speak, he said in rapid succession, “Look at the temporary command center at the beach of the elves. Three high-rise sentry towers have already been built. Close to 20 elves are on duty here. This is far more than the number of people when I ambushed the investigation team. Even if I use my previous plan, I can’t gather everyone’s attention. If I launch a surprise attack, it’s very easy to encounter the shots from the sentry towers… Therefore, it’s impossible!”

Cleveland said aggressively, “Now that we’ve entered a state of war, it’s time for Mr. Kang De to be more serious. Please don’t treat war as child’s play, okay?”

Kang De was puzzled, “…Did I ask you to cross-dress?”

“…”

The knight was stunned for a moment before saying calmly, “I wonder what brilliant plan Mr. Kang De has?”

Kang De glared at him and said, “Wait! Compared to this, what do you mean by your previous words? Could it be that in your heart, I’m a person who only wants you to cross-dress and watch you make a fool of yourself? Why should I do this? What’s the benefit of doing this? Could it be that I still hold a grudge for the previous misunderstanding? Am I such a mean, narrow-minded, and petty person?”

…Yes.

The knight’s expression was a little conflicted. As a knight, his self-cultivation made him not want to lie.

However, his intuition told him that if he told the truth at this moment, the petty Mr. Kang De would definitely remember him again. Although he did not know how the other party would repay this honesty, looking at the tragic matter of cross-dressing just now, Mr. Kang De’s revenge would definitely let him taste the nightmare of his life again.

He opened his mouth, then said slowly with a sigh, “No, Mr. Kang De is not such a person. You’re upright and honest, broad-minded, and willing to help others. The previous plan obtained a huge result at a very small price. It’s a very successful tactic. You definitely have no selfish motives.”

Saying this, the knight’s heart was almost bleeding. He sadly discovered that ever since he stepped onto the Holy Seal Islands, he had encountered many tough situations.

As a Guardian Knight, the princess had been kidnapped by a group of animals in front of him. This was a huge humiliation and a huge blasphemy to his oath and duty.

Moreover, he was wearing a woman’s outfit.

Now, he was even forced to lie…

His faith, body, and even soul… were all greatly shaken and impacted.

He simply felt like his entire body and mind had been tainted.

He wanted to cry.

Kang De smiled and said, “In that case, you’re willing to wear female clothes?”

“…”

—Hey, enough is enough!

When the princess heard Kang De and the knight’s interaction, she felt both amused and a little sour and lonely. There were clearly three people here, and the two men were talking happily, but they left the only woman aside. This feeling of being excluded was a little strange.

Moreover, Cleveland was clearly her Guardian Knight, and Kang De was her…

Hmph, in short, it shouldn’t be like this. It was very wrong.

She saw that the serious knight had actually been forced into a corner by Kang De. Apart from feeling amused and surprised, she also felt a trace of pity. After all, she did not want Cleveland to be bullied too much.

Therefore, she said, “Kang De… Knight Cleveland has already realized his mistake.”

Kang De said seriously, “You can’t say that. We have to talk about this openly. You make it sound like I’m a pervert who forced men to wear female clothes… This matter concerns my reputation, so I have to make it clear! Otherwise, if this gets out in the future, others will speak ill of me behind my back!”

—Is he threatening me by saying this?

The knight’s heart skipped a beat. He could not care less. In any case, it was against his conscience once and against his conscience twice. He endured the grievance in his heart and whispered, “I did it willingly.”

Kang De nodded in satisfaction. “That’s good, that’s good.”

He had to mention it again—the recording function of the phone was really amazing.

If these Goethe people did anything in the future that caused the two sides to fall out, he would edit a large amount of material he had filmed today and spread it out to let this guy have a taste of social embarrassment.

Cross-dressing pervert, cross-dressing pervert.

Hmph, he had quietly laid out a plan to prevent this guy from turning against him in the future. It was too powerful.

He was proud of himself for a moment. He looked at his watch and said, “It’s about time.”

The knight asked, “What do you mean? Also, what’s your plan?”

Kang De replied, “The plan has been arranged long ago. We’re just waiting for the elves to take the bait. The current situation is suitable—Cleveland, I’ll confirm two more things with you.”

The knight said seriously, “Please speak.”

“Firstly…” Kang De said, “There are no elite archers on duty in this temporary camp. The people guarding this place are all sailors on the warship. Their discipline is relatively poor, right?”

The careful and meticulous knight borrowed binoculars from Kang De. He looked at them and observed them from the handheld camera for a while. He nodded and said, “That’s true. There’s no Marine Corps here.”

Kang De continued, “Then let me ask you a second question… Elves are more lecherous, right?”

A strange and vigilant expression appeared on the knight’s face.

—Why do you ask this question? Could it be that you still want me to…

He panted and did not know what to say.

The princess blushed slightly and said in a low voice, “That’s true. The elves have long lives and the country is powerful and rich in resources. All kinds of factors have caused the current social atmosphere of the elves. They advocate pleasure and pursue art. Their temperaments are lazy, their sense of time is poor, and they even indulge in desire…”

This was relatively easy to understand and reasonable.

As the saying went, when one was full and warm, they would think about lust.

The elves had a long lifespan and could do anything in time. They were calm and composed. The country was powerful and rich in resources. Just like the high-welfare countries in Europe that produced lazy people, such a race that did not need to struggle to feed themselves thought about how to find fun and spend their boring time every day… Therefore, all kinds of weird things appeared.

It was not surprising.

Kang De did not even doubt that when the magic techniques of the other world developed to a certain level, such as video recording that could be realized through magic, the elves would most likely film the first action movie of the other world.

No matter what, it was fine as long as he was lecherous.

A cooing sound came from the sky.

Kang De smiled.

It worked.

He pointed in a certain direction. “Don’t make a sound. Be careful, fun is coming.”

The three of them hid on a mountain and observed the movements of the temporary camp. The knight and the princess waited for a moment before hearing a strange sound as if a woman was crying softly.

Then, they saw a few elves laughing and walking toward the camp from afar.

These elves were carrying something. It was square and a part of its surface was glowing. That strange woman’s voice seemed to be coming from this heavy thing.

From afar, the princess and the knight could not see clearly. Even if they could see clearly, they did not recognize that thing. However, the only thing they could be sure of was that this thing was definitely related to Kang De.

The princess asked, “What’s this?”

Kang De smiled, “I’m ashamed to tell you. It’s just some spellcasting materials, an amateur welding technique, and a can of art…”

He took out a modified racing remote control from behind and placed it in front of him.
