"Take a moment? I'm afraid things are not that simple, His Majesty the Tsar."
Alves straightened his voice——
"There is serious corruption and bad character in Arubas, but such a person is promoted as the new city official. If this is the case, what reason do we have to believe that the next candidate is worthy of trust? Our recommendation channel
Have serious problems already arisen? Your Majesty the Tsar, if these problems are not clarified, I am afraid there will be no need to continue today’s meeting.”
"Then what do you want? Little dwarf, are you questioning the royal power? Questioning our sacred selection system?"
Earl Lyford shouted with a trembling voice. But no matter how he maintained order, the commotion on the field became more and more serious. Indeed, Alves' words ignited the resentment in the hearts of some people who had no benefits. They originally
There was nothing to say. Now, Alves stood up and said some fair words, which actually aroused resentment and dissatisfaction in their hearts.
"Oh? A dwarf... I am indeed a dwarf. But, does this have anything to do with me identifying hidden secrets and raising questions? I am the chief municipal officer of Erengrad and an advisor to Rhodes, the great lord of the north. I am just here
It’s just an exercise of my power. At the same time, this is also my obligation. Earl Lyford, let me ask, am I wrong?”
Alves is neither humble nor arrogant.
"you you……"
The earl was so angry that his face turned red, but he was speechless.
"Alves, please don't disturb the proceedings of the meeting here. If you have any opinions, we can talk privately, but the National Assembly only happens once a year and cannot be postponed. This will affect the future of Kislev."
Tsar Pavel said coldly.
"I'm just worried about the future of Kislev, that's why I raise these questions. I can't just watch the treacherous ministers take over and blind the eyes of His Majesty the King..."
"I'm clear, and at the same time, I want the meeting to continue."
Pavel was a little impatient. He was not as good as Alves in terms of talking points, which could not be trained in a short time.
Just as Alves was about to retort, Pavel took the official document from Count Lyford and read it quickly. Obviously, he wanted to end the meeting quickly. He didn't want to be disturbed by anyone anymore, at least, no one.
Can interrupt the Tsar.
"The next topic is the reduction of military spending."
Pavel read aloud——
"In recent years, the borders of Kislev have been stable, the internal environment is stable, and there have been no large-scale alien invasions. Right now, the most important thing is to resume production and reduce expenditures. In terms of military expenditures, the Northern Army has occupied a large amount of financial resources. Therefore, I
It was decided to appropriately reduce the establishment of the Northern Border Guard Force."
"Your Majesty the Tsar, the northern lords will bear the responsibility for the border defense. As long as they can manage their own territories well, there is no need for us to interfere in local affairs."
Alves retorted on the spot. Although it did feel disrespectful to the Tsar, Alves didn't care. Today, he wanted to offend His Majesty the Tsar, make him angry, and force him to take action. Therefore, it was not unreasonable to make trouble.
Not bad.
As for the decision to reduce the border guard force, it is not difficult for anyone to see that Pavel is reducing the strength of the north. After all, he has been an empty king for too long. As long as the north has its own troops and respects itself, he, the king, will not speak out for a day.
of real power. Using various excuses to weaken the Northern Territory is actually clearing the path to power for him in the future.
Unexpectedly, Alves refused to give up and spoke out in a high-profile manner. This made Pavel look extremely ugly.
"This is the power of being a tsar..."
Pavel was furious.
As soon as he finished speaking, a shadow suddenly flashed from the crowd. Before anyone could react, it quickly approached the Tsar in the hall. The assassin's movements were so fast that even the noble representatives and high-level officials around Tsar Pavel did not respond.
come over.
The Tsar's voice fell silent. The next second, Pavel stood up from his seat and quickly escaped the assassin's attack.
The sudden scene caused chaos on the field.
"Guard! Guard!"
Earl Lyford shouted in horror. Other noble representatives backed away desperately.
But the guard captain Krem was not around, and for a while, no one could provide force protection. The assassin missed the first blow and pressed forward step by step. Pavel was about to dodge, but unexpectedly an ice needle suddenly shot out from behind. The speed of the assassin Pavel
It was enough to deal with it, but the speed of the ice needle was so fast that Pavel was unable to dodge.
The moment before the assassin pounced, the ice needle stabbed the Tsar's back. The pain and anger caused the Tsar's face to rapidly distort, and the complete skin on his face was torn, turning him into the appearance of a terrifying undead creature!
The assassin obviously did not expect this scene, and the assassination movement slowed down a bit. In anger, Pavel directly grabbed the assassin's neck, pulled hard, and tore out the throat tube inside!
The assassin died on the spot, blood spurted out... The bloody and terrifying scene caused the order of the whole place to completely lose control. Screams and shouts were heard.
"You...actually took refuge in a vampire!"
Alves pretended to be surprised and shouted. All the delegates looked at this scene in horror. They saw their king's twisted and ferocious face, which was no different from a vampire, and his fangs were exposed from his lips.
, sharp claws sprouted from the blood-stained hands...
Outside the door, Okento, the captain of Krem's guard, hurried over with the guards, but met the noble representatives and officials who were fleeing for their lives. Okento was anxious and eager to protect his master, but he could not harm these high-ranking officials and officials of Kislev.
The nobles could only push away the crowd with their bare hands... On the other side, the battle in the palace hall had already begun.
Roar……
With a wild roar, Pavel wanted to tear the dwarf Alves apart with his hands. However, in desperation, an ice spear blocked the way of Tsar Pavel. It was the ice spear of Queen Denis.
The chill was so intense that Pavel had to retreat continuously. Alves collapsed on the ground in horror, watching this thrilling scene.
"Queen, haha, I didn't expect that there would be such a day when our husband and wife would meet each other in war!"
Pavel laughed wildly. He took off his disguise. He had no worries. Everyone saw that he had lost everything. Anger twisted his heart again. Revenge, pure revenge, occupied Pavel's heart.
"You are no longer my husband! You traitor who took refuge in the devil!"
After speaking, Dennis recited a powerful ice spell. The hall was instantly shrouded in a powerful cold air. With the frost witch Dennis as the center, countless ice arrows gathered and flew towards the vampire Pavel.
Pavel roared wildly, jumped into the crowd, grabbed a fleeing noble, and used him as a human shield. Countless ice needles pierced the noble's body, and instantly, blood spattered. Pavel licked the dead man.
With blood stains on his body, he roared and rushed towards Dennis.
He is no longer human, he is no longer the Pavel I knew...
Dennis said to herself. In an instant, the ice formed an airtight magic barrier around her. Pavel's wild attack did not penetrate the barrier, but it consumed most of the energy of the barrier. Use this short gap.
, Dennis quickly retreated. She knew that there was absolutely no advantage in fighting a vampire hand to hand. The only way was to distance herself and use magic to win.
However, Pavel, who became a vampire, had already seen through the Frost Witch's tactics. He pressed forward step by step, carrying years of grudges and hatred, and stabbed Denis again and again with his sharp claws.
Until the magic barrier could no longer withstand the damage, a crisp explosion sounded, and the barrier shattered into countless ice shards and flew out.
Pavel roared wildly and continued to attack, and Dennis had to fight hard.
The ice spear thrust forward, Pavel dodged sideways, and stabbed out with his sharp claws. Dennis bent down to avoid it. Pavel rushed at him again, but Dennis withdrew his spear and blocked it.
"Do you think I am still the same Pavel as before? My dear queen, I will conquer you and drain your blood..."
Holding Dennis's ice spear, Pavel growled. Dennis only felt that the situation was not good, and suddenly, a powerful force came from the middle of the spear.
As the sound of ice breaking sounded again, the spear in Dennis's hand was forcibly broken into two pieces by Pavel!
Even the queen herself was thrown to the ground by the sudden impact. The world in front of her eyes turned blood red.
Riding on Dennis, Pavel opened his mouth wide open. The anger in his heart was accumulated to the extreme at this moment. He hated her, she didn't love him, and he would destroy her if she didn't get it! He wanted to suck her blood dry!
However, just when Dennis felt desperate, a loud gunshot suddenly rang out. The next second, Pavel, who was already riding on him, suddenly fell to the ground. The bullet passed through his head, and the powerful impact hit him.
He was knocked to the ground.
Looking in the direction of the gunfire, Dennis saw a familiar face—Witch Hunter Diego! The best witch hunter around his father. But, how could he appear here? There was no time to think about it, Dennis
He stood up quickly, and at the same time, Pavel, who was hit by a silver bullet, also struggled to get up... Yes, one bullet was not enough to kill him.
