"We have a proposal."
The same plot is also happening in other corners of the free world. Along with it, representatives of major guilds other than Jianghu are competing with various regional forces. Arashiyama, who is in charge of the empire, is also at this time.
Under the leadership of Cangyun Barrier, he looked at the emperor calmly who was sitting in the center of Redcar Red Palace: "I hope your majesty can think about it carefully."
"How rude." A scolding sound came from the corner of the huge palace that had restored its gorgeous decoration. The man who looked like an imperial nobleman who was sitting on a curved platform looking down at the adventurers also stood up: "Coming from a foreign land.
Barbarians, you lack the necessary etiquette. You must know that you are facing the emperor of the empire, the most noble master of the empire. Even if you don't show your due respect, you can't say this without sincerity.
words of request!"
"Our Lanshan Adventure Group has high respect and gratitude for the entire empire. It is precisely because of this that we seek such help." Still holding his chest, Cangyun Barrier's resolute face
There was a bit of solemnity in the message: "If this happens, the entire adventurer group will be grateful to the emperor for his generosity and enthusiasm. This will undoubtedly be a good thing for both of us."
"A good thing? How can you see it?" He raised his golden curly hair and retorted loudly and arrogantly from the previous nobleman of the empire: "Do you really know what you just said? That's what we respect and love.
The Emperor of the Empire! This is a huge empire with a history of thousands of years! How dare you make such a request to us unscrupulously? I really should find someone to open the heads of you adventurers to see if the contents inside are soaked.
Wine made from wild bamboo shoots, or... Huh, could it be that you are sent by the principality——"
"Stop, Sir Sirik."
Raising his hand to stop the accusation that was still echoing above the palace, Drenir Frey Kaderraft, who was sitting on the gorgeous throne in the center of the high platform, shook his head quietly.
A big hand like a cattail fan also appeared on the taller man's broad arms. The slightly old-looking arms were also covered with suture cracks similar to those on the face: "I already know your kindness, but the one standing here
I’m afraid you haven’t understood what these adventurers just said.”
"This continent has had a rule since ancient times, that is, adventurers' own affairs have always been resolved by adventurers themselves." The arm pointing forward gradually returned to the armrest, and Drenier, who was wearing the imperial crown,
Zhanran's eyes also appeared under the disheveled white hair: "After the Adventure Age, the Magic Empire ruled for more than two thousand years. After Emperor Frey and the Tadayans jointly broke the rule, another thousand years passed.
Although various accidents occurred during this period, this unwritten rule has continued to this day, which means——"
"You guys who advocate freedom and represent the 'character' of this free continent would actually take the initiative to ask Yu to interfere in the important affairs of your adventurers. I am really surprised." His Majesty the Emperor made a deep sound when he said this.
Laughter: "Since you are standing here representing Redcar's strongest adventure group, you must also know what the 'requests' that Xiang Yu proactively made mean behind them, right?"
"Of course we understand." He raised his fists forward and bowed again. Cangyun Barrier lowered his head and replied: "I am just a representative. This is a joint decision between me and our alliance, and -"
"We're very excited about what's to come."
Up and down, the two sides, one high and one low, faced each other in silence in the vast palace hall. Finally, they were broken by the laughter from the broad figure in the center of the high platform. The laughter grew from small to loud, and finally burst out into a loud voice.
There was a deafening burst of laughter like a subwoofer: "Haha! Hahahaha! Good! Very good! I like you very much!"
"That is to say." Enduring the pressure contained in this burst of laughter, Cangyun Barrier forced himself to raise his sweat-covered head. He confirmed word by word: "Your Majesty agrees?"
"Yu agreed." He slapped his thigh, and the stitch marks on his face became a little blurry because of his strong smile: "The martial virtues of the Frey Empire have always been magnificent.
, the arena built by Emperor Frey himself is right there, you can use it as you wish! But——"
"We adventurers will find a way to solve the technical problems on our own." Holding his fists, Cangyun Barrier replied calmly in advance: "I will definitely present you with the most exciting battle at that time."
"You should know more about magic than I do, so I won't say any more." Drenier waved his hand casually, suppressing his laughter and replied casually: "What else is there?
Is there something wrong? If not, just go down."
"Wait a minute!" Several imperial nobles standing on both sides of the high platform stood up at this time, and issued unfailing advice with frosty faces: "I agreed to the request of these adventurers so easily.
It’s too dangerous! We shouldn’t act according to their arrangements! At least we should—”
"The Frey Empire is in peace negotiations with the Principality. Even if these adventurers are really from the Principality, they are not our enemies now." Interrupting the advice of these noble officials, Drenier sounded again.
His voice was full of impatience: "Don't be mistaken about the real enemy of the empire. If you understand this but still want to say these things to me...then you have to be considered a remnant of the 'Prime Minister Faction'
."
"The Magic Empire was our mortal enemy thousands of years ago, and we will never forget this." Amidst the silence of several nobles, the imperial noble previously known as Silik stood up from one of the seats above the high platform: "
The loyalty of these nobles is comparable to the bright moon, they just think-"
"That's almost it, Sir Sirik." A third different voice suddenly inserted into his monologue, and a middle-aged man sitting on the seat on the other side of the circular high platform also clapped his hands: "
His Majesty the Emperor has not lost his trust in you, but His Majesty the Emperor's trust will not be given to you, the new nobles who replaced Caldera, for no reason."
"Tristan." He gritted his teeth and said the other person's name. Silik's voice suddenly amplified when he pointed at the other person: "You sinner who has returned from the city of sin! Don't think that His Majesty will let you sit here.
You really have the ability to be on equal footing with us!”
"I have never had such an idea. After all, I have a clear self-understanding of how and why I sit here." Tristan smiled and spread his arms: "In line with the principle of avoidance
, I have never spoken to these adventurers before, but there are some things I have to remind you."
"Those of you and I who took advantage of the Prime Minister's resignation and tried to replace the old authority and ascend to high positions in the empire have made more contributions so far than the adventurers you are despising."
His eyes moved back and forth between Tristan and the people in Cangyun Barrier below. Silik, who looked ashen-faced, finally sat back with his lips pursed, while another young imperial noble who had been standing in the corner of the palace also laughed.
He shook his head, folded his arms and turned away from the unnoticed corner: "It seems everything is going well. Larry, go get ready."
"Your Excellency Simon." In the scene where the sun was shining from the side door of the palace, the attendants who appeared here answered the words of the young imperial noble: "According to your instructions, we have quickly 'cleaned' the inside and outside of Redkar.
Miss Hannah has also received our message and is currently unifying her adventurer forces."
"After all, it is their initiative to entrust us. They should cooperate with us." Adjusting his dark gray noble robes, Simon nodded with satisfaction: "And in this way...hehe, hehehehe."
"No, it's nothing."
Noticing the incomprehensible gaze of his subordinates quietly looking at him, the young imperial noble pressed the bridge of his nose to suppress his smile. He took out a letter with an exquisite wax seal from his arms, and Shi Shiran handed it to his subordinate.
"Go ahead and help me send it out."
"As for the address...just write the Mages Council branch in Redcar."
*********************************
"--well."
Holding her chin and letting out a deep sigh, Qian Zhihe, who was sitting in the Redkar Master Council branch, fiddled with her long red hair and put on an unspeakable expression of sadness. The branch she once built was
The old site of the Ministry and the Imperial Library not far away were also scattered in the cold winter wind, looking desolate, just like her mood at this time, shrouded in a desolate and withered atmosphere: "Why, why did it become like this?
."
"Xiaoqian! Xiaoqian!"
At this time, a group of magician members from the Council of Mages were also cleaning the house under the leadership of a player named Yudi. Among the feeble cleaning team, only Yudi himself was still jumping up and down behind Qian Zhihe: "Look! Our little nest.
...Ahem, our branch is almost finished! I also asked someone to order a hundred bouquets of flowers, and after they are all decorated - Xiaoqian?"
"I know you are a little sad. After all, this is the third time we have been assigned to work in the branch." Looking at Xiaoqian's side face reflected in his field of vision, he approached Yudi to sort out his emotions.
Finally, the gentle and kind feeling was squeezed onto his face: "To be honest, our team and I are now a little familiar with this kind of life that comes and goes every day, hehehehe... But don't be discouraged, this is not the place.
Will you be the first stop for a representative? And it’s also the famous imperial capital of Redkar, so we have great potential for development!”
"Oh, really." Answering the other party's words nonchalantly, Qian Zhihe seemed to be too lazy to show resistance and boredom to the player's deliberate approach to him: "It doesn't matter, anyway, that's not the purpose of me asking for instructions and being stationed here.
Well... forget it, there's no point in explaining these things to you."
"You, what did you say?"
"nothing."
He waved his hand and knocked aside the palm that Yudi wanted to extend. The red-haired girl turned around from the window and said, "Have you finished cleaning up? After you finish cleaning up, go and draw the magic circles I taught you.
But for the most important thing, other trivial matters can be put aside first."
"Trivial things? How can they be called trivial things? We want to live in this beautiful city forever." Not caring about the setbacks he suffered in "showing goodwill", Yudi raised his hands in front of his face and praised: "Look at that
The red city wall in the distance - ah, exactly the same color as your hair! Such a beautiful place, such a beautiful birth, those of us who have been following you will definitely clean it up beautifully! Absolutely - right?
Disappoint you!"
"Oh, forget it, just do whatever you want." Then Qianzhihe's eyes turned to the side again: "Anyway, just don't delay the business, the circulation of the earth's veins still needs-"
"Mage Council Branch!" A shout appeared in front of the two people, and a messenger on a two-wheeled bicycle raised his hand outside the window in front of the two people: "I have your letter!"
"letter?"
The "sweet" atmosphere was disturbed by outsiders. Angrily, Yudi looked at the postman in earth-colored uniforms and cursed: "I believe you xx! This is the Mages Council branch that has not been rebuilt! Why?
Someone might send a letter here—ahhh!”
The unfinished words were blocked, and his body was then lifted out of the window by a huge force. Thousand-Zhizhe, who also crawled through the window sill and knocked over the window leaf, appeared extremely agile at this time and rolled on the ground.
He rolled quickly and rushed to the postman's side: "Where is it? Give it to me quickly!"
"Ah? Oh, here - hey, hey, don't blame me if it's torn."
"Oh, stop talking nonsense! Let me see, the signature is... Huh? Simons Roderica? Not the Qingling Adventure Group? Not from the Principality?"
She flipped the beautiful envelope back and forth, and the red-haired girl's eager and passionate eyes finally cooled down a little bit as time went by. She stood blankly holding the letter.
After a long time, the fiery energy that had been restored in that moment was also burned out at this moment: "We agreed to keep in touch even when there is no ground signal. If it doesn't work, we will use the ancient method... What, you're lying!"
"Beautiful lady, please confirm your letter." The postman who had not left yet wiped the sweat on his head: "If it is sent by mistake, we can provide a return service..."
"That's right, you can go." Giving the other party a warning look, Qianzhihe feebly raised the envelope in front of him again: "It is indeed a letter addressed to the Imperial Branch of the Mage Council, and it says I
The name is... strange, who could have sent such an exquisite mud seal?"
She looked left and right for a moment, and the magical fire flashed between her hands. The neat and sharp imperial writing was also reflected in the scene of the envelope turning into ashes with the wind, intact on the sheepskin in her hand.
On paper: "..."
"……ah?"
