"Is it another request from Poole?"
Still holding her chin with one hand and sitting at the table, the first eldest princess of the Frey Empire named Lena Frey Kadraft was showing off a corner of her luxurious pale white dress.
Now isolated from the bleak autumn wind by the window sill, the little bits of light reflected by the golden skirt are now intersecting with the flowers placed in front of the window sill. The dewdrops dotted on them seem to be silently reflecting this beautiful and elegant imperial princess.
With a calm and solemn face: "Don't think that I can't see what they want to do. They say they want to establish a more gentle bilateral relationship and help them complete the subsequent urban construction and restoration matters. In fact, they want to take the opportunity to inspect the underground of this city.
Bar?"
"Tanya is a city full of mystery and unknowns. It would be a good thing for us if we could explore more of its secrets." Standing behind the princess, a man who looked like a guard had a low voice.
He replied: "The Poole family never wants to record all the secrets about this world, even here. From this point of view, they can be regarded as fulfilling their duties."
"But I have already told everyone not to engage in such unnecessary little tricks." Looking out the window from a distance at the busy scene of traffic under the aristocratic platform in the northwest city of Tania, Princess Reina quietly spoke again.
: "I just had lunch with Pamir's wife and talked about things that can only be discussed between women. I don't want this kind of small report to be placed on the desk of the Speaker of the Principality immediately."
"The internal disputes in the principality are fierce, and the capable speaker does not control everyone's movements and loyalty." The raised head reflected the dim light in the room, and the guardian still responded with a deep male voice full of magnetism: "Tower
This is especially true in the underground world of Nia. Some members of Landnar seem to have established a relationship with the Shadow Society, and there should be good news coming back soon."
"...I don't want to do that either."
The body that leaned forward sank slightly as she let out a low sigh. Reina, who didn't know what she thought of, finally restrained her usual tough and noble attitude a little: "But my father sent me to this place.
For a long time, I must have hoped that I could complete this career."
"We have no way of knowing your Majesty's thoughts." I don't know if he was worried about how to answer this question. The guard standing behind him was silent for a moment: "In my humble opinion, the eldest princess should try her best to focus on
It’s better to focus on the things in front of you, and don’t worry about things that are too far-reaching.”
"I have said before, when there are only two of us, please do not call me Your Royal Highness." Sitting there without looking back, Reina's expression facing the window reflected a hint of tenderness in the dim arc light:
"Forgetting the blood of the Frey family, I am just an ordinary person. I cannot maintain the majesty of the royal family and the firmness of my mind all the time... Sigh."
"Perhaps this is the real reason why my father is unwilling to pass the throne to me. After all, the future of the Fleur Empire still needs a truly strong person." The eldest princess sighed louder and louder when she said this.
The more humble he is: "Although Chris is young and impulsive and made such a big mistake this time, my father will still not give up on him."
"But His Highness the Prince may not necessarily think so."
He reminded the woman in front of him in a low voice, and the scars on the guardian's face gradually tightened with his stern face: "The blood of the imperial family cannot escape the fate of fighting each other in the end.
Sir... with your current momentum and prestige, His Royal Highness will still regard you as the most powerful enemy."
"Huh, let's wait until he gets out of this imprisoned situation." A sharp flash of light flashed in Reina's eyes, and Rena's tone became serious again: "Those congressmen have now caught this.
Once the tail is gone, we are frantically trying to regain our originally weak position. If it weren't for the fact that the adventure group responsible for the main witness disappeared for some reason and all members were missing, our situation here would have become precarious. "
"The Pamuir family will never let the situation develop like this!"
A loud voice quickly inserted into the conversation, accompanied by a fat man who was originally the Chancellor of Finance. He pushed aside the guard at the door and squeezed into the room: "No matter what method the principality uses, we will all
It is absolutely impossible to accept their threats! Even if the prince is really guilty, he must be tried by our empire personally! There is no way to give in to this point!"
"As for the possible conspiracy... I have been doing my best to investigate this time." Another magician who followed in immediately knelt down and saluted: "Your Highness."
"No need to be polite."
After waving her hand, Princess Reina withdrew her eyes from the scene by the window. The sharp sight like a blade and the solemn atmosphere that quickly rose around her also made the fat man instantly restrain himself.
With arrogance and arrogance, sweat dripping from his forehead, he bowed and saluted: "Your Highness, the new cooperation agreement has been negotiated. According to your wishes, the empire will cede 18% of the profits in exchange for the trade circulation rights in the Amparius area.
and export rights.”
"The second best magic crystal mine in the empire is produced there. We can't just waste it on those extravagant and wasteful nobles." Nodding her head, Rena's serious face relaxed slightly: "As for transportation,
Question—Where is Minister Diploma?"
"They are still negotiating with the parliamentarians from the principality, hoping to entrust this matter to the local town of Moore." The magician standing aside answered the question: "The progress is going smoothly so far, but there is no discussion yet.
over."
"After all, this is their land. If they are not responsible, do we still have to be responsible?" The fat minister adjusted his manners and gorgeous robes, crossed his arms, and regained his previous arrogance: "
It is impossible to compromise on this matter! You must know that our empire's current finances are not so generous that we can allocate them arbitrarily. The so-called 'symbol money' provided just to repair Tania is enough - ahem, I did not interfere with the empire.
Financial meaning! I, I mean..."
"Continue with your report just now, Diba." Ignoring the fat minister's gaffe, Rena shook her head and turned her attention to the magician again: "How is the investigation of the so-called 'conspiracy' going?
"
"Judging from our recent war with that magic empire, the 'dark magic' and 'evil control' accused by the principality are not completely non-existent." Diba lowered his head again and made a magician's salute, speaking quickly.
He replied: "But we have not detected similar traces of magic on Prince Chris. Perhaps the other party used a more covert method."
"...Have you verified the contents of the adventurers who came to accuse us before?" Reina paused slightly, closed her eyes and continued to ask quietly: "Have you found out their identities?
?”
"We have sent the described phenomenon and specific characteristics to the Imperial Guards in various places. Once a verifiable example appears, the Imperial Magician Group will return the news to Your Highness as soon as possible." Diba's voice
He replied seriously: "As for the identities of those adventurers——"
"The results of the tracing show that they seem to be related to an organization called Ruan Dian Kijin."
Doubtful expressions flashed across the faces of everyone present. It seemed that they all needed a little time to understand the meaning of the name just announced by the magician. They had been respectful since the appearance of the outsider.
The guarding man in the posture then took the lead in raising his head, and a glimmer of light flashed across his scarred face: "Maybe we should find an adventurer to ask."
"The most direct way." Before the fat minister could scold the guard for his overstepping behavior, Princess Reina took the lead in nodding in agreement and said: "Adventurers themselves should be the most aware of matters between adventurers, but
…Who should we ask?”
"Of course, priority is given to adventure groups that are loyal to our empire." Having said this obvious answer, the guard man continued to answer in a steady voice: "The double-shield warrior in Lanshan is very powerful and has always been loyal to us.
Imperial Army, if I ask him about this matter, I think there should be no problem."
"Then let's summon him." The gorgeous princess leaned back a little and listened to this and then waved her hand: "Of course, regarding the requests mentioned by the adventure group two days ago, this
We can solve it all at once... haha."
"Aren't they the best at negotiating conditions? This might be a good opportunity."
*************************************
"So Amman just wants to claim sovereignty over our place?"
Time returned to the white space where Duan Qing belonged, and the gray-robed magician who had finished his busy day was now facing the body of Violet, who had been occupying this place for some time, with her head buried in it: "My dear Delaney
Hey, are you so idle now?"
"Before that, I have a question." Duan Qing seemed to be accustomed to the fact that the woman in front of him occupied his private login space, and he sat cross-legged on a flat surface not far away with a look of helplessness: "Even if it is
Amman has used his own ability to calm down his guilt. How can he, a representative of the Adventurers Association, violate his neutral position and speak out for the empire?"
"No one who participated in the rebellion was neutral." Duan Qing's mouth was blocked by the instant answer, but Violet's tone at this time was a little sad: "What happened in the meantime
A lot of things have happened, but you, who have not experienced these stories from beginning to end, probably don’t know them anymore.”
"Okay, then let's not consider this issue from historical reasons." So Duan Qing could only tilt his head as if giving up: "What are your thoughts?"
"What do the worldly things of this world have to do with me?"
The half of her face that appeared was a dull expression, and Violet turned her body slightly: "No matter what the Empire and the Principality want to fight over you, you just have to make your own decision.
"
"This is not 'your' territory, but our common territory." Duan Qing pressed his forehead helplessly: "The existing space technology, including space planning, has been approved and approved by the Lord of Violet in advance.
Technical support, how can we do this without asking for your opinion?"
"Then if I say I disagree, will you really prevent those Imperial people from entering this sacred mountain?"
"meeting."
Without the slightest hesitation, Duan Qing instantly answered the strange question that followed Violet. The latter tilted her head and looked at Duan Qing steadily, and finally raised the corners of her mouth gently:
"Don't worry, I don't hold a grudge that much."
"In the subtext of Amman, the current main speaker of the empire is Princess Reina." Duan Qing continued to answer seriously: "Prince Chris has not gained any right to speak for some unknown reason.
No one has ever mentioned anything about you and the problems between you."
"They don't dare to really put that prince in front of me, unless the plot like that in Tanzania City happens again." Violet shook her head and closed her eyes and stopped looking.
Xiang Duan Qing: "If it's just the Adventurers Association, you can decide for yourself. In such a desolate place, whether the existence of the association is necessary or not is a question."
"No, the existence of the association is necessary." Duan Qing immediately replied: "We need to use the strength of the association to organize the upcoming competition."
"...Huh, you and your friends are the only ones who are willing to spend so much time doing such a thankless thing." Violet seemed to have returned to her initial state of self-research: "This
Is it important to you?"
"..."
There was an abrupt silence in the white space. The purple-haired magician, who had lowered his head and waited for a long time, finally broke the atmosphere created by himself: "Okay, I understand, what else do you need me to do?"
"I need a wider space."
"It's impossible, even with the support of the entire elemental spring."
"It's not like I need to use it now."
Crossing his arms and staring at the back of his cheap mentor, Duan Qing continued in a solemn voice: "We will find ways to hold the large-scale competition in various places in the Free Continent. If there is really no way, we will divert the battlefield away.
Going to the grassland is also an alternative in our plan, but——"
"Once the game reaches the later stages and the strong players from all walks of life begin to gather together, the intensity of the entire battle will definitely escalate." Duan Qing said this and looked up at the endless white sky above his head: "I didn't overestimate it.
Beyond the extent of our influence on the world, the other parties lurking in the dark will definitely intervene."
"...This is a war, right?"
Violet also raised her head, turned her back to Duan Qing and asked in a low voice: "Do you have any chance of winning?"
"It has to be." Duan Qing replied with a serious face: "My intuition tells me that this is the last battle."
"No matter what, I will bring you and I back safely."
