Chapter 50: Father and Son Meet

In the following period, after some discussions between Allen and Queen Margaret, they finally formally determined the Braden Kingdom's next strategic plan to deal with the invaders.

They did not directly choose the strategy of strengthening the wall and clearing the field as described by Queen Margaret.

On the one hand, as Allen had suggested before, they decided to send a group of undercover agents to the enemy camp to inquire about information, and also try to understand Howard's recent situation.

On the other hand, Allen decided to go to the front line personally within the next week to see with his own eyes the military deployment of the Church of Light.

This plane is not like the plane of Pain. There is an upper limit to the power, and magic above level three cannot be used.

Here, Allen can use the space magic array unscrupulously.

Recently, he has improved his space magic array, incorporating dark divine power and the power of "origin" into it.

This means that if he wants to escape, no one can stop him unless the goddess of light takes action herself.

At the same time, relying on some intuition, Allen believed that the goddess of light would not easily end the battle herself.

If the goddess of light comes to the human world, she will definitely pay a heavy price. She will not be able to come and go between her divine kingdom and this plane at will.

Otherwise, with the attitude of the goddess of light who regards Allen as a thorn in her side and wants to kill him and take away the dark godhead, if she could come in person, Allen would have died countless times.

The "Strengthening the Wall and Clearing the Country" proposed by Queen Margaret was designated as a backup plan.

If they were unable to defeat the enemy on the frontal battlefield and retreated steadily, they would disperse the residents, demolish the cities and warehouses, and cut off the invaders' material supplies.

In the words of Queen Margaret, "You can't beat them. You can't make them feel better. Even if you die, you must die with dignity."

This statement sounds a bit childish, like a child quarreling with others.

But Allen felt that if such a thing really happened, he would make the same choice.

"But, Mr. Messenger, I am still very worried about one thing." At this time, Queen Margaret looked at Allen and thought with some worry. "I am very worried that our decisions will be reflected in the cabinet and parliament."

hindered."

Allen understood her mood.

He knew that Queen Margaret was not worried for nothing.

The Kingdom of Braden is now equivalent to half of a constitutional monarchy.

Margaret did have the final say on every decree, but she could not do whatever she wanted like the kings of ancient times and turn the entire country into her own.

The ministers in the cabinet have always disliked Queen Margaret interfering too much in political affairs.

They felt that this young queen was just a naive little girl and she should just sit on the throne and be a beautiful mascot.

She can smile, wave, and sign "agree" in beautiful cursive letters on government orders.

But she must not express her opinion.

Things like governing the country still have to be left to experienced ministers.

Allen still agrees with the system of Braden Kingdom.

After all, no country can guarantee that its kings from ancient times to the present are wise kings - besides, even wise kings may make mistakes, and cabinets and parliaments are needed to correct these mistakes.

But now it is a time of war.

In times of war, efficiency is the most important thing.

When facing an emergency military situation, if every order had to go through the four processes of the House of Commons, the House of Lords, the Queen, and the Cabinet as it did in peacetime, I am afraid that the enemy would have breached the city gate long ago.

What's more, members of both houses of Congress have a soft spot for quarrels.

Because of this, Allen wrote to Earl William, hoping that he could coordinate the nobles of the old and new parties so that during the war, all forces in the Braden Kingdom could unite together and have a unified voice.

"Leave this problem to me to solve!" Allen said calmly, "Within a week, you will see a unified Kingdom of Braden."

Allen once again "spoke wildly".

Because even Norman I, the founding monarch of the Kingdom of Braddon in history, did not have the confidence to say such a thing.

But Queen Margaret still has great confidence in the messenger.

It can be said that this is a kind of mindless trust.

…………

That night, after leaving the palace and castle, Allen followed the previous agreement and came to the York family's villa in the center of the capital city to meet with his father, Earl William.

This villa is still the same as Allen remembered. Although it is not large in size, it has a beautiful appearance and a low-key luxury atmosphere.

When Allen arrived at the villa, Butler Fred from the York family was already wearing a black uniform and came outside the yard, waiting to greet him.

"Master Allen, the Earl is already waiting for you in the room." When he saw Allen, Butler Fred bowed to him and saluted.

Allen nodded and responded: "Well, I'll go see him right away."

Then, he followed Butler Fred's steps and walked towards the house.

On the way, Allen passed by the exquisite fountain in the yard.

In the center of the fountain, there is a marble sculpture of a crown and an angel.

Allen hadn't noticed it before.

Now he suddenly discovered that the angels on this sculpture seemed to be the ones under the goddess of light.

Among them, the one surrounded by blazing fire was Uriel, the "Flame of God" who was imprisoned in the Kingdom of Darkness.

There was another one surrounded by thousands of stars, standing in the C position in the crowd. Although Allen had never seen his face before, he could guess that this was the legendary Lucifer, Howard's previous life.

.

"Fred, my father is not a devout believer in the Church of Light, so why would he build such a fountain in the villa?" Allen asked steward Fred.

"This fountain was given to the Earl by Archbishop Jacques Nerga after he donated money to the Church of Light," Butler Fred replied. "After Archbishop Jacques Nerga was burned at the stake, the Earl

I didn't bother to dismantle it because it was too troublesome.

"Anyway, as we all know, Master Yak Nerga's crime was exposed by you. Even if others saw it, they would not dare to make irresponsible remarks."

"That's it." Allen nodded.

He almost forgot that his father was once one of the largest sponsors of the Church of Light.

…………

After entering the house, Allen saw at a glance that Earl William York was already sitting on the sofa in the living room, waiting for him.

As soon as he saw Allen, Earl William stood up with a smile on his face, and there was undisguised pride in his eyes.
