Extras Dark Tales - Wounds(1/4)
Weird things happen every year, especially this year. I used to hear that there was a negotiation that ended with a fight, but I didn’t expect that a strange thing happened in which the negotiation involved wearing a wedding dress and entering the bridal chamber. And it happened on the front line where the situation was the most tense. It happened between two parties.
When armies confront each other.
Totally unimaginable.
In the newly decorated Guards Command House, one of the persons involved was Lieutenant General Haiert of the Sbia Empire. In front of ten temple priests, he carried another person involved, Princess Mary of the Turan Empire, into
They entered the auditorium to accept the blessing of the priest. At that time, a group of senior generals from the imperial garrison were whistling and making noises. Afterwards, they all proved that the wedding of the couple was quite successful. At another style of wedding, when someone was invited
When the ten demon temple priests blessed the newlyweds, they found that Princess Mary's eyes were filled with tears and she was still struggling. She was obviously forced to marry the lieutenant general.
After receiving the news, the Demon Alliance "angry" terminated the negotiations and announced internally that the great army would launch an attack on Sibia within two months to punish the Sibia bandits who had defiled the princess and killed them for blaspheming their dignity.
The god is a criminal, unless Emperor Sibia proves with actual actions that this matter was not his decision to hand over Lieutenant General Geert and return Princess Mary.
In fact, the situation faced by the Sibia Empire was already quite bad earlier. The various rebels in the Liva Empire received assistance, both in quality and quantity.
When an incident shocked the mainland, the rebel alliance had officially launched a counterattack. The temporarily formed Second Guards of Riva could not withstand it, and had to retreat step by step in order to preserve its strength.
In the country, rebellions in some places also started in the name of bandits and bandits. In some places, rebel troops even threatened transportation lines.
There is such a vast area that needs to be garrisoned, and the number of troops in Sibia is not too large, so when these things happen at the same time, the officials at Sibia feel extremely strenuous. The situation is getting more and more tense, and the military department even issues
The mobilization order not only recruited soldiers across the country, but also ordered the students studying in dozens of military academies to immediately form new legions and send them to various places. At this time, the demon alliance's protests and threats came in a surging force, with violent attacks.
On every inch of the Holy Capital.
Although their respective starting points are different, the attitude of the officials and nobles of the Sibia Empire is unprecedentedly consistent regarding this matter, and they all demand that His Majesty Cohen severely punish Lieutenant General Haiert. Among these people, some of them are
They are afraid that if they start a war with the Demon Alliance at this time and snatch their women, they will become mourning soldiers. We all know the truth that mourning soldiers will win! Other ministers have confidence in their emperor and their own army.
, but he couldn’t stand the reckless behavior of Lieutenant General Geert, thinking that he was completely irresponsible and pushed the Sibia Empire into a pit of fire. If there is no punishment this time, then the Lieutenant General will be punished in the future.
He still has to be lawless? Can anyone still control him?
At this time when a buffer is needed, the First Princess is in poor health and no longer handles government affairs; the highly respected General Martin Luther is guarding the border of Riva and cannot be distracted; the General Staff Officer is so busy participating in military affairs day and night... there is no one left
Being able to block the voices of these ministers, all sharp opinions were directed at His Majesty Cohen.
His Majesty Cohen immediately ordered Lieutenant General Helter to return to the Holy Capital within fifteen days to report on his duties.
Under normal circumstances, even with the shortest route, it would take a month to rush back to the Holy Capital from the front line. The ministers all thought that this was His Majesty's alternative approach: if Lieutenant General Haiert could not come back within fifteen days, then His Majesty could
Use this excuse to punish him to avoid some embarrassing reasons for punishment.
Some of His Majesty Cohen's close friends, such as Justice Jack, are already secretly thinking of ways to save Lieutenant General Helter's life - although everyone knows that His Majesty Cohen is unlikely to hand over Lieutenant General Helter to the Demon Alliance.
, but Helter is now a lieutenant general, and some punishment methods that may seem ordinary to ordinary people are actually not much different from killing him directly.
On the morning of the fourteenth day of the stipulated time limit, nine veteran warriors stood at the gate of the Holy Capital City. When the guard officer asked the leader to show his identification, the tall and straight warrior took out a waist card and said,
The majestic look on his face made people afraid to get close, "The Royal Guards are stationed in the province of Camp, and the commander-in-chief of the province of Wales, Lieutenant General Geert, and his accompanying adjutants are escorting him."
After a pause, he looked back at the two short warriors with their faces covered, "These are family members."
The guard officer stood at attention, saluted, and immediately let them go after checking their identities. As the group left, they kept looking back to peek.
This is really amazing. It took only fourteen days to return to the Holy Capital without any luggage or sufficient guards. Are the two family members mentioned by the Lieutenant General the princesses snatched away by the Lieutenant General...
Master Sho is such a tough guy! He remains calm and collected under such circumstances.
It was indeed Lieutenant General Helter who returned to the Holy Capital, because he had several high-ranking brothers helping him with the arrangements. He even enjoyed the fast shipping service provided by the Dragon Clan, but after all, the brothers who helped him with the arrangements were not like His Majesty Cohen.
To save face, only ordinary dragons came to provide services. This journey was not very pleasant.
Later, when driving on the road with the help of horses, Lieutenant General Helter showed his fierce general style: he passed directly through the rebel area and also rescued a local army reconnaissance team.
He went to the military headquarters to report, and then to the palace to report, but His Majesty the Emperor did not see him directly, and several princes and concubines also did not receive him. In desperation, Lieutenant General Haiert had no choice but to take others into the Saint's Palace.
Du's mansion. Although this mansion is magnificent, Lieutenant General Helter became really worried: His Majesty the Emperor, are you really going to have an operation on yourself?
In addition to worrying about herself, there was something even more troublesome - Princess Mary, who had just changed her clothes, was shouting: "Who are your family members!" while rushing over with a knife. Her well-behaved brother was holding her tightly behind her.
He looked anxious, but he only dared to give Lieutenant General Haiert a "run away quickly" look.
"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have snatched this bitch back." Haiert lamented in his heart, complaining about the injustice of his fate.
Since he came back from robbing this woman, he has not had a day of peace. How could there be such a strong woman in this world? Why would he commit suicide if he was not happy to marry him? Why would he point a knife at himself... However, if she
If he really wants to commit suicide, Lieutenant General Haiert will not agree. In Haiert's own words: "I snatched you back, and that's enough!"
In fact, Princess Mary is a person who can see the situation clearly. She knows that the Tulan Empire can no longer accommodate her, and the Demon Alliance cannot tolerate her. Putting aside the relationship of faith and hostility, it is not bad to live in the Sbia Empire.
.Because the man who robbed him did not abide by the general rules of the game, that is: make the most of himself, and sacrifice himself when necessary to clear his stigma.
As a military general, it is impossible for him not to have such a mind, but it can be seen from his eyes that he has not even considered such a thing. This strange environment created by a man's behavior has always made him
Princess Mary, who was struggling with conspiracy and ugliness, had some kind of change in her heart.
Even though he carried himself on his shoulders like that, even though he showed off to others countless times... these were all very embarrassing experiences.
Although Lieutenant General Helter did not do anything other than forcing himself to hold a wedding, he could not turn this corner. After all, she was a dignified imperial princess, and she was snatched away to be his wife. If there was no suitable step,
How could she get off stage?
In fact, it is not difficult to find a step to get down. Emperor Sibia is the most suitable candidate, but she has long heard that Emperor Sibia is a madman, and recently she heard that the emperor started sucking blood. Just look at Geert and you will know this.
The emperor whom he privately calls "boss" should be similar to him, even more vulgar and despicable...
Not to mention the steps, he might even chop off Geert's head in this case. Of course, he, as a beauty and troublemaker, can't escape either... Humph, Emperor, no one is a good person!
The family war continued until just before dinner. The reason it ended was not that everyone was hungry, but the visit of Geert's two brothers. Knowing that this was related to Geert's future, Princess Mary put away the knife, dropped her harsh words and returned to the room.
.But in the evening, Princess Mary found that Geert's face became even heavier after talking to his brother about the matter.
That night, the "husband and wife" who slept in separate rooms never closed their eyes. It was a cold night, covered with frost, and they knew whether they were warm or cold.
Early the next morning, Geert took Princess Mary to the palace and met Emperor Sibia, Cohen Keda.
"Your Majesty, Lieutenant General, Your Majesty has sent an order for the General to bring Mary Hogsanda to an audience after the morning court." After waiting for a while, a herald came and said to Haiert: "The meeting between Your Majesty and the ministers has come to an end.
, General, please prepare."
"I got it." Helter straightened his clothes, turned to Princess Mary and said, "Follow me."
Princess Mary stood up, sorted out her chaotic emotions, and prepared to face the most important moment of her gloomy life bravely, accompanied by Lieutenant General Helter. Even if it was a bad fate, she must show her courage and be a human being.
dignity. In fact, she has no hatred for Lieutenant General Helter... It should be said that she has never had hatred. Even during the negotiation, she had been living in a dark life and had a special feeling for the Lieutenant General.
A feeling of security where you don’t have to worry about anything anymore.
Moreover, in that situation, if Helter didn't "rob" her immediately, her only choice would be to commit suicide with her brother. Even, from a certain perspective, she was deeply grateful to Helter.
But this Geert, who seems to know nothing but fighting, is the kind of person who is born to make her angry. He wastes opportunities time and time again, turns a deaf ear to his own hints time and time again, making her angry and jumping...
...If he understood and was willing, then today, he and himself would not be in such a passive state to meet Emperor Sibia.
This is not only for my own good, but also for his own good! It is really depressing to end up like this.
"Emperor Sibia..." Walking on the path of the harem, it was Princess Mary who spoke first, "How will I treat you?"
"This is none of your business. I just stole you back to be happy. I never said that you have the right to dictate my affairs." Haiert replied without looking back, "Didn't you say that I am rude and despicable? You still ask this.
What to do?"
"You are indeed rude and despicable, but can't I get used to it after watching it?" Princess Mary said: "Can you distinguish between good and bad?"
"Yes, I just can't tell the difference between good and bad people, that's why I snatched you back."
"I'm not leaving!" Princess Mary stopped.
Without saying much, Geert picked up Princess Mary by the waist and walked forward, ignoring Princess Mary's series of resistances to regain her freedom. She didn't stop until she reached a pavilion and said, "Take your hair,
What does it look like?”
"That's what I look like. If you think I'm not good-looking, don't rob me in the first place!"
Haiert was stunned for a moment, then turned his back, took a deep breath, and walked in a circle around the princess in her resentful eyes. Then he turned around suddenly, grabbed the princess's collar, and pulled her away.
Dragging it over, the two faces were so close for the first time in history, which made the princess's heart beat wildly. She didn't know what Geert was going to do.
"I'm only going to say it once, you have to listen to me clearly!" Haiert seemed to be angry, his face turned pale, "No matter what my fate is today, but you, you must give me a beautiful appearance. I
Haiert always strives to be the first to do things. Even if I am beheaded today, I will let the people here, the people in the empire, and everyone in the entire continent know that I, Hailt, have snatched back the most beautiful woman! My woman!
She deserves the price I pay!"
"You...you..." Princess Mary had longed for her partner's confession to her countless times, but it was never this pattern.
At this time, he was completely overwhelmed by Haiert's intimidating aura. All he could see with his eyes was the look of attacking the city; all his ears were ringing were those low, manly words; his breathing was carrying the armor on his body.
The smell of the air... She was stunned, nervous, at a loss, and confused, not knowing what to say.
"If you act like a shrew again, I will kick you out." Haiert slowly let go of his hand, his eyes passing by with a trace of reluctance, "Let you live your damn free life."
Capturing the subtle but real nostalgia for her from the man in front of her, Princess Mary felt a strange feeling in her heart. Her body was trembling slightly. She seemed to have a lot to say. She opened her delicate red lips and spat out such a sentence.
Inappropriate words: "You threaten me!"
"I agree or disagree, just one sentence."
"I..." Princess Mary bit her lip, suddenly realizing that she looked very weak, so she turned away and secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "You can't put on makeup in this place!"
"What's wrong." What he just said seemed to consume a lot of energy from Lieutenant General Helter. He looked around and pointed at a nearby exquisite building, "There, hurry up."
To be continued...
