Demon Royal Family

Ivo was very depressed after being scolded for no reason.

Raymond hurriedly told the story.

After learning the cause and effect, Ivo figured out that it was his power that catalyzed other people's thoughts.

Having power is like wearing a mask that covers your expression. Even if Ivo doesn't mind a little disrespect, others will over-interpret him due to different psychological thoughts.

Ivo doesn't care much about status, he has always pursued strength.

Seeing that Espin insisted that he was the mastermind, Ivo shook his head. The arrogant young man always thought that he was right and that the misfortune he suffered was the fault of others.

Espin's expression was distorted and angry. He suppressed the fear of Ivo in his heart and said angrily: "You, you admit it!"

"Don't take yourself too seriously. I don't have time to waste time on you." Ivo squatted down and got close to Espin. His cold eyes made Espin subconsciously lower his head and said indifferently: "And even if I want to deal with you, , what can you do?"

Espin gritted his teeth, and the humiliation of being pinned to the ground by the priest made his eyes bloodshot.

"Are you angry at me?" Ivo looked directly into Espin's eyes and said calmly: "You have to understand that it is not me who caused all this, but you!"

“If you had followed your responsibilities and carried out your job as a receptionist in a business-like manner, none of this would have happened!”

"The reason behind all this is your arrogance!"

Espin opened his mouth wide. He didn't want to believe Ivo's words, but a voice in his heart kept reminding him that this was right.

For a moment, Espin was completely defeated. He found that the anger he persisted in was completely unreasonable.

Ivo waved his hand and said to the priest: "Let's fight."

Vice President Yueguang was shocked, "You... what do you want to do with him?"

Ivo glanced at him and said calmly: "Everyone must bear the price for their actions."

He is not a bad person. After being insulted by Espin for no reason, Ivo will not let it go even if he is not angry. He cannot let others insult him and pretend to be generous to let him go.

As he said, everyone has to pay the price.

Insulting the Pope's chief deacon in person, to be serious, is related to the face of the Holy See.

The person in charge of the religious hall nodded, "Take him down and give him the seal of an ascetic monk."

The punishment of the Holy Court forces prisoners to become ascetics, which is euphemistically called cleansing the heart with divine light. In fact, it is equivalent to long-term private imprisonment + physical abuse + mental abuse, which is enough to transform a person into a brainwashed fanatic.

Espin was stunned. He finally realized that his behavior was extremely stupid and began to regret it. The ascetic punishment was enough to destroy all his prospects.

"Wait... I, I apologize to you, please let me go..." Espin panicked.

"Before you insulted the church members in person, you should have thought of the consequences. It's too late now." Ivo shook his head, and the priests set up Espin.

Vice President Moonlight was so anxious that he didn’t care about anything else and stood up and shouted: “Wait a minute!”

Everyone stopped and looked at him.

Vice President Moonlight gritted his teeth and begged: "Your Majesty, Espin is just a child. He is just too impulsive. I hope you will give him a chance."

Hearing this, everyone present looked strangely.

child?

It seems that Ivo is younger than Espin.

But under the cloak of power, no one will treat Ivo as a child.

"You are a high-ranking Duke, why should you care about a young man who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth." Vice President Moonlight had to say good things for Espin.

"I told you, it's too late." Ivo's expression remained as usual. Seeing this, the priests were about to take Espin away.

Seeing that he could not impress Ivo with his plea, Vice President Moonlight made a decision that he regretted very much afterwards.

"Your Excellency, based on your attitude, I have to reconsider the cooperative relationship between the Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom of Lasces."

Ivo paused and looked back at Vice President Yueguang, who was pretending to be calm, "Who are you?"

"I am the vice president of the Moonlight Chamber of Commerce, Mickey."

Ivo nodded, then narrowed his eyes, "Were you... threatening me just now?"

Vice President Moonlight shed a drop of cold sweat, endured the uneasiness in his heart, and said slowly: "No, I just have doubts about the sincerity of the Lasces Kingdom."

Moonlight Chamber of Commerce, a member of the Libra Alliance, is not as good as the business giant Goat Chamber of Commerce, but it is still a large chamber of commerce.

Raymond hurriedly whispered to Ivo: "Your Excellency, the Moonlight Chamber of Commerce has close cooperation with the Kingdom of Lasces and provided a large amount of materials to help the kingdom rebuild after the war. The royal family owes a lot of debts."

"Seven III can't afford that much money?" Ivo frowned.

Seeing Ivo calling His Majesty the King by his first name, Raymond trembled in his heart and his attitude became more respectful, "Yes, in order to quickly restore the entire territory, the royal family borrowed money from the Great Chamber of Commerce. The treasury is in deficit. The kingdom owes the Moonlight Chamber of Commerce 2.5 billion benas. huge sum of money."

Ivo raised his eyebrows.

Threaten the kingdom with debt?

A huge sum of 2.5 billion is enough to have a huge influence on the kingdom. If the Moonlight Chamber of Commerce wants to collect the debt, the kingdom's reconstruction work will be brought to a freezing point.

No noble in the kingdom would dare to act rashly when faced with a huge debt of 2.5 billion.

But not Ivo.

Vice-President Moonlight had to make a decision with unpredictable consequences for Espin's sake. Seeing Ivo's expression as normal, he secretly screamed that something was not good.

Whether it was anger or patience, he could understand it, but calmness... made him feel stressed.

Everyone stared at Ivo, waiting for his reaction.

"Mickey, right? I remember it, and I hope you remember what you said today." Ivo glanced at Vice President Moonlight and said to the priest: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Take him down!"

The priest of the church cheered up and pulled the ashen-faced Espin away.

Vice President Moonlight couldn't believe that Ivo ignored his threat, and said angrily: "You, you..."

Ivo didn't even look at him, threw up his sleeves and left, leaving behind a murderous word.

"The body of the last person who threatened the Hokuriku nobles with money is still buried in Hokuriku. Mr. Mickey, I hope you will not regret what you said today!"

"The Hokuriku people are never afraid of threats! Our response is only to fight back!"

The impression Ivo left on everyone present can be described in two words - domineering!

Raymond felt a surge of pride in his heart. He was proud of his identity as a Hokuriku man. He glared at the bewildered Vice-President Moonlight, said "I will truthfully report to His Majesty the King" and left with the others. .

Vice-President Moonlight is at a loss as to what to do, he feels unwilling, but he cannot take revenge. He is just a vice-president, not the controller of the Moonlight Chamber of Commerce!

He felt extremely aggrieved. It was obviously him who was threatening Ivo, but he was threatened by Ivo in turn.

During the Hokuriku War, the tragic fate of Peidi and Hu Moupi was still in front of his eyes. Awell, who had been defeated by Ivo consecutively, dared to kill the president of the Chamber of Commerce casually. How dare he ignore Ivo's murderous intention.

For a moment, Vice President Moonlight seemed to have aged ten years.

…

Ivo has long seen through that Vice-President Moonlight is fierce in appearance and has a soft heart. He is not afraid of threats at all. Even if the Moonlight Chamber of Commerce really retaliates, he will not be worried at all.

He had dealt with Severn III so many times that he had no idea about the kingdom's morality.

Even if that old man, Severn III, keeps his promise, the repayment time will be delayed.

If there is no money for the time being, it would be easier to postpone it indefinitely.

The money lent to the Kingdom is like water thrown out. Compared with the Kingdom, the Moonlight Merchant Guild is too young.

After the matter is resolved, Ivo doesn't care about what happens to Espin and Mickey in the future. It's just an interlude to him.

Master Geng Lei packed up the information and experimental props, and Ivo wrote a letter asking Geng Lei to find Gavin.

During the trip to the academy, I gained a master of alchemy, a series of secrets about the Mimics, a lot of mysteries, and the lost knowledge of Gregorian alchemy. Guding's reaction made Ivo suspicious, and he secretly kept a cautious eye on it.

There are still two months to go before the first phase of the Holy See election ends. Ivo's next stop is Little Magellan's treasure.
