Amidst the chatter of gossips, rumors, and hearsay, it was already late at night. Looking at the ground, there were a lot of things lying on the table, and the most powerful creature in the fortress appeared!
The dwarf aunt holding a broom in her hand chased away a group of heavily armed dwarves and orcs. There was no way around it. No one wanted to let a broom stained with feces be swept into their face, as any image would be wiped away.
When Lin and Fen saw the owner's fierce wife appear, they quickly threw the full amount of wine and dinner money on the table before she could yell at everyone, and then ran away. The former Demon King
The adults can still maintain their usual elegance, but someone really crawls and escapes from the tavern.
Lin carried one of the two drunken girls, and Fen carried the other, and they walked on the same deserted street.
It was just that under the influence of alcohol, the street was not as weird as it had been when he arrived. Lin was just bathing in the moonlight, humming an unknown ditty.
"Lord Tripwood, I have something to ask you." Fen asked suddenly, sending a chill down someone's spine. This lich never used honorifics, which was never a good thing. But Lin could only laugh along and said: "
Easy to say, easy to say, just ask."
"What's the deal with the ship-cutting sword?"
It should be a proud achievement, but at this moment it seems like dark history. Someone's eyes wandered guiltily and he said, "I don't know what that is."
"Oh." Fen raised the Kaya he was carrying in front of him, shook it, and asked the double-braided girl who struggled to hold up her eyelids: "Do you know about the ship-cutting knife?"
As soon as he touched his glasses and turned on the exclusive database function, Kaya moved a few times and transferred the design drawings of the ship-cutting knife to Fen's vision. As soon as the transmission was completed, he died again. Like a hanged man, his limbs were weak.
droop.
Looking at the blueprints of the ship-cutting sword and various additional records, Fen still didn't understand what this weapon was about. But she smiled like a crescent moon with her eyes, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and didn't say a word. This on the contrary
Even more frightening.
"..." Lin stretched out his trembling hands and said, "Don't look like you want to go back and tell those dwarves, because you think I will be afraid."
"If you're not afraid, don't shake your hands. I'm just a little curious about how those dwarves would react if they knew it was you who made the ship-cutting sword."
"I'm warning, don't mess around. Otherwise──" "Otherwise what?" "─Otherwise I will run away alone in the middle of the night. Don't think that the mere city wall can stop me."
"You ungrateful bitch always wants to run away. You can run to the ends of the earth. Believe it or not, three of your legs have been broken."
"Isn't it so rough!"
"I am a lich, from the chaotic and evil camp."
Under the same night sky where the two were arguing, in the southwest peninsula, within the Leon District branch of the Magician Association, and in the palace of the Kingdom of Huelva, Juan Javier was gathering with his 'family' and close friends.
A family dinner is going on.
King Jaen IV and his queen were sitting on the main throne, with six princes in the row on the left and two princesses in the row on the right. Juan was sitting directly opposite the long table, tearing into grapes and eating them without showing any sign of sitting.
, while drinking a very strong mead. Next to him was his teacher, José Carlos, with a helpless expression on his face, turning his head not wanting to look at his student.
Juan Javier is able to sit here because his mother, who is even more legendary than his great magician, Queen Catherine, was originally just the daughter of a knight lord and married her lord, Viscount Javier.
, and gave birth to a child. That child was Juan Javier.
Catherine met the young and energetic Hahn for the first time at a ceremony to celebrate the new king's coronation, and she was also fascinated by the new king. The second time they met was at the funeral of Viscount Javier who passed away due to illness, when Juan was five years old.
.
The widow's beauty will of course have many admirers. The fact that the king will appear at the funeral of a viscount has also attracted the attention and speculation of many people. But there are still people who are not attracted to Catherine, and that is a branch of the Javier family
.
What better opportunity could there be to seize control of the family than to leave only an orphan and a widowed mother now, so they hatched a plan to marry off the widow. The first candidate was of course the single, enterprising king. Then
One man was powerful enough that the widow had no choice but to agree.
"As long as you ensure my son's inheritance rights and the royal family sends someone to take care of the territory, I will marry you."
Taking her son, who was not very sensible yet, Catherine did not play any tricks and directly stated her own conditions. In fact, according to the tradition of Midi, women did not have to be widowed or loyal.
It is a common thing for a widow to marry three or four times and kill a lot of husbands.
For Hahn IV, such conditions were just a piece of cake. But for the carefully calculated branch of the Javier family, it made them cry.
However, many nobles in the kingdom were not satisfied with this marriage with great disparity in status, not to mention that she was a widow who was not only older than the king, but also had an oil bottle. However, it was the king who was reckless and reckless with his age.
, not someone who can be easily persuaded.
In the next few years, princes and princesses were born one after another. Those nobles who were loyal to the royal family but complained about the queen's background also remained silent. Compared with the queen's identity, the successor was more important. But... is it too much?
That’s a lot!
It is the most ideal situation to have one heir, one or two alternate heirs, and several princesses who can be used for marriage. But if there are too many heirs, it may not be a good thing. It is conceivable that there will be competition for the throne in the future.
, the kingdom will be in constant strife.
The turning point of everything came in the twelfth year after Catherine was crowned queen. A close minister of Hahn IV betrayed, poisoned his king, fled back to the fiefdom and raised the flag of rebellion. All the nobles shrank their power and waited to see what happened.
Change. Some people contacted several older princes privately and waited for opportunities.
Of course, there are also nobles who directly approach the queen, with many hints in and out of words, hoping to take advantage of the royal family when the king is not sure whether he will wake up.
Queen Catherine declined all these concerns and only said: "I have sent thousands of troops to put down this rebellion."
In fact, the royal guards directly under the king have strengthened their guard in the palace, and there is no sign of redundant mobilization. Even the palace magicians are stationed in the magic tower in the royal city and dare not leave without permission. But the rebellious marquis still
Got packed up.
'The youngest great magician in Leon District.' That year, Juan Javier was seventeen years old and was only recognized by the great magician in Leon District. He was alone, completely ignoring the rules among nobles, and
The rebellious marquis family was slaughtered.
Only then did the nobles realize that the heir of the Javier family, who had been sent to learn magic from the late king's friend, the great magician Jose Carlos, had already achieved such high achievements.
Although he does not have the blood of a king, he is of the blood of a queen and has been nicknamed the 'Prince of the Elements'. The word 'prince' refers to his identity that is unlikely to be recognized. It can also be regarded as a magician's reference to the nobles.
of bad taste.
The royal family that welcomed Juan back passed the most dangerous moment. King Hahn IV woke up.
Many nobles privately expressed their dissatisfaction with Viscount Javier, who had become a great magician, for not abiding by the rules of the game among nobles. However, Viscount Javier became the Marquis of Javier. The extinct marquis family, including others,
Territory and property have become the possessions of this great magician.
In the same year, King Harn IV named his eldest son with Queen Catherine as the crown prince. Some conservative veterans saw the chaos when the king fell and were certainly optimistic about the birth of the crown prince. But not all nobles were so optimistic.
So, this includes other princes who are younger and surrounded by a group of villains.
However, during the canonization ceremony, Juan Javier made a shocking statement. Just as his "Declaration of Not Accepting Disciples" caused an uproar in the wizarding world, he also made shocking remarks in the aristocratic world.
"My brothers, support the crown prince appointed by the old man, and don't have any undue thoughts. Because if you dare to overturn the table and fight for the throne, I will take action. Obviously, none of you can compete with me. So don't
Give me an excuse."
Juan lived with King Jaen IV for a while when he was young. Although Jaen intended to treat him as his own child, he could never say the word "father". Without his father, he only called the king ""
Old man', even if this person is young and strong.
"Why do you inherit the throne!" the ten-year-old second son asked the eldest brother who was only half blood dissatisfied.
Juan Javier just laughed wildly. In the laughter, his brown hair turned into flames and mist evaporated from his body. He said: "As long as you are all dead, I will be the only one who can inherit the throne, right?"
"Nonsense!" Queen Catherine scolded her children amid the threat that frightened everyone. She rarely spoke in front of the public, but said coldly: "You have to kill everyone in the line of succession.
, only then are you qualified to be crowned.”
Then the nobles almost collapsed, including the branches of the royal family. Shouldn't the queen stop this young man who doesn't know the heights of the world? Why is she still adding fuel to the fire? What's even more frustrating is that the person who made such a declaration can really do it.
.
But Hahn IV only focused on one key point, that is, the worst plan would only happen if the crown prince was gone. As long as the premise does not exist, things will not happen.
There were also dissatisfied nobles who conspired to support the second prince's succession to the throne. However, Juan Javier took the Leon District Chapter's most powerful war weapon, the airship Cosbotron, to the sky above the noble's fiefdom castle and stopped there.
Quite some time.
During this period, all kinds of weird, valuable, and worthless things in the castle were used as gifts and sent to the airship one after another. After almost all the apparent property was wiped out, the nobleman had to give away a gift.
Plague of ships.
From that moment on, the crown prince's position was completely stable. Whether it was his younger brothers or the nobles in the kingdom, they all forgot that there was such a thing as fighting for the throne.
Under the leadership of King Hahn IV who matured and became increasingly sophisticated, the Kingdom of Vielva ushered in a wave of prosperity.
However, Juan Javier, who regards himself as a magician and almost forgets his aristocratic status, rarely interferes in the affairs of the kingdom and its fiefs. Until today, when he wants to establish a college, he understands that he cannot do it alone.
Things that can be done. So it depends on who is better to help you, your cheap dad or your teacher.
