Be a matchmaker in an otome game

Chapter 199 An alliance that no one knows about

Cress's face changed like the sky, her enchanting and charming expression changed at the drop of a hat, and her face became cold and arrogant, like the waning moon in the sky.

"Our Demon King is deploying troops. They will soon be at the border and can send troops at any time."

"So?" Vincent looked up at her lazily, "What does it have to do with a humble citizen like me?"

Cress took a step forward and was very close to Vincent. Their breaths were intertwined with each other: "Our Majesty will wipe out all the human race. Are you sure you won't abandon the secret and turn to the light? Huh?"

She said "Yeah" in a roundabout way, but Vincent just replied with one word expressionlessly: "Yeah."

Vincent said the same word hard and simply, like a stone hitting Cress on the head.

"How cruel," Cress sighed, "You are a smart person. I have thought about it these days. We have been working together very happily. Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

Vincent sounds like a cheating scumbag.

Vincent's answer was indeed like a cheating scumbag: "I said, we just get what we need. Now that I have achieved my goal, why don't I dump you?"

"Our Majesty is well prepared this time, and the human border cannot resist it." Kress sighed, "Why are you so persistent? The human race has never been kind to you, is it worth it for you to stay and work for them?

"

"That's my business."

"I also know that I can't persuade you. I'll still be here waiting for you three days later. But I just want to tell you that if you come here now, I can still help you protect the people you want to protect. If it's later, I won't be able to do anything.

."

Cress left, Vincent sneered, took out a cigarette from somewhere, flicked a flame on his finger, and lit the cigarette.

Smoking is not allowed in the military camp. Some people smoke secretly. Generally, as long as no one reports it, no further investigation will be carried out.

Suddenly, Vincent's expression changed. Just as he put on a defensive posture, there was already another person in front of him.

This face was not unfamiliar to Vincent, but not familiar at all. He never had much communication with students, but he would have some impression of the students he taught.

"It's you," Vincent skillfully blew out a smoke ring as a greeting, "Want to have a cigarette too?"

Of course Azarez didn't come here to smoke. He curled his lips and said, "I didn't expect you to actually know Cress."

Vincent's eyes suddenly became sharp. He looked at Azarez from beginning to end, and suddenly said softly: "So it's you."

Azarez knew that Vincent had guessed his true identity, but he was not afraid, nor was he afraid that Vincent would sue Fred. After all, Vincent himself was not clean.

"It's surprising that His Majesty the former Demon King is willing to be the deacon of a small nobleman," Vincent said sarcastically, "I think you are quite good at serving others."

"Just give it a try." Azarez raised his eyebrows and admitted frankly, even a little proud.

He looked so shameless that Vincent's mouth twitched and he looked away: "So, what does His Majesty the Demon King want from me?"

"What do you think of what Cress said?" Azarez asked, "What do you think?"

"What ideas can I have," Vincent shrugged. "There is a wise and mighty King and a young and promising Crown Prince. Do you need me to have any ideas? Or do you have any ideas, Your Majesty the Demon King?"

Azarez said calmly: "The demon clan's plan will never succeed."

Vincent's mouth twitched. He was obviously the former Demon King of the Demon Clan, but he was not optimistic about the Demon Clan's decision at all. It was a bit strange. He felt that Azarez was like a traitor to the Demon Clan.

But Vincent also agreed with Azarez's point of view.

"Indeed," Vincent nodded, "the demon clan's move was too... impulsive. They acted impatiently before the layout was completed."

From the current point of view, even if Kress is dragging part of the human army here, the role it plays is very limited, and it can only be used up. And according to Vincent's understanding of Kress's strength, it can be used

There were not many people at all, and I simply didn’t know what the demons were thinking.

"So, Kress's mission ended in failure," Azarez finally concluded, "She returns to the demon clan and has no other end than death."

Vincent originally thought that Azarez would continue to tell him about the situation between the demons and humans this time, but he didn't expect that he would change the topic and turn it into Cress's personal case.

It was obviously a cigarette that I had been used to smoking for so many years. This kind of cigarette did not have a strong smell and was sold as light, but what I breathed into my lungs at this moment was full of bitterness.

"It's none of my business," Vincent said hoarsely, "It's all your own fault."

Yes, it is your own fault, regardless of whether it is just or not, the game between countries, one wrong step and one wrong step, the executor will not die, how can you convince the public? Since Cress has accepted this task, she must be mentally prepared, if it fails

Then become benevolent.

"Actually, it's not her fault," Azarez smiled and crossed his arms on his chest. "It's the current Demon King's problem. He messed up my plan to pieces. It's a pity that no one cares about his fault.

"

After all, Vincent didn't know that the root cause was the leader, but this did not change the outcome of Cress's death.

"So, let's find a way to change the devil." Azarez smiled and dropped the bomb.

As soon as Azarez said these words, Vincent suddenly raised his eyes.

"Change to the Demon King...you?"

If you think about it carefully, it is not surprising that Azarez made such a request.

But Vincent is not so easy to persuade: "I think you have found the wrong partner. His Highness Fred will be a better choice for you."

As the crown prince, Fred could provide Azarez with far greater help than a powerless person. It would be more appropriate to cooperate with Fred.

Azarez said: "Only people of equal status can discuss cooperation."

He has nothing. What he is talking about with Fred is not cooperation. Cooperation is mutual benefit and win-win for both parties. He has no confidence to negotiate terms with Fred. What can he give Fred? If he wants to talk about cooperation with Fred

, he would never have chosen to stay dormant at Felisa's house from the beginning.

Of course, this sentence did not sound so pleasant to Vincent's ears. Doesn't this mean that Azarez and him are on the same status now?

Thinking about it, it seems to be true. A tiger was bullied by a dog, and he was a human being in the end of the world. Azarez was robbed of the position of the devil without knowing what happened, and he directly gave up the underground power that he had been running for ten years.

You might as well listen to what Azarez has to say: "If we want to talk about cooperation, what conditions can you offer?"

Azarez said: "I can save Cress's life."

This is ridiculous. What does Cress's life have to do with him? Whether Cress is dead or alive is none of his business.

Then he heard his own voice: "Okay."
