After coming out of the palace, Beta did not go back to Waking City, but wandered on the streets... This was not his intention, but Angel's strong request. It is normal for a woman to become interested and go swimming naked in a small pond in the suburbs, not to mention shopping, which is completely in line with women's nature.
After wandering the streets for about two hours, Beta was about to find a hotel to have something to eat when a carriage stopped next to them. A middle-aged butler who looked familiar jumped out of the carriage and said respectfully: "Excuse me. Your Excellency Beta, our master invites you to our home.”
Looking at the somewhat familiar butler, Beta asked: "Kirstin?"
The middle-aged butler smiled: "Yes, I'm glad that you can still remember my master."
Beta naturally remembers Kirstin, a rare ‘battlefield flag bearer’. Beta also has a ‘favor investment’ in him. Now that we haven’t contacted him for more than a year, it doesn’t hurt to visit him as a guest.
Beta turned his questioning gaze to Angel beside him.
Angel plucked the state guest's hair from her cheeks and smiled charmingly: "You decide, I will go with you."
Beta took Angel's hand, got into the carriage with her, and then said to the middle-aged housekeeper, "Please lead the way."
About half an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of a manor. Standing at the door was a high-spirited young nobleman. When he saw the carriage coming back, and when he saw Beta coming down from it, he looked extremely happy.
But then he saw Angel come out of the carriage, and his expression immediately became very strange.
"Your Excellency Beta, long time no see." Then he turned his eyes to Angel and was silent for about two or three seconds before he said, "Long time no see, beautiful Ms. Angel."
As a member of the aristocracy of the royal city, Kirstin certainly knew about Angel, the former queen, but due to many political considerations, all the aristocrats deliberately ignored her existence.
Even though Angel was famous in the royal city in the past, even though her fame was spread, and even though the city of Esnais was not far from here, no nobles went to the city of Esnais to visit her.
Now that Kirsten sees her, she doesn't even want to mention her name as 'former queen'.
After all, according to rumors, the former queen has become the king's woman. This involves ethical issues that no one wants to talk about. As for the agreement reached between Beta and the king, not many people knew about it and it was not spread. Therefore, the former queen's current reputation and status were very embarrassing in the royal city.
It’s just that Angel doesn’t care.
She bowed slightly to Kirstin and stood next to Beta without saying a word. This action revealed a lot of information. Kirstin could read it but couldn't understand it.
Isn’t the former queen the king’s underground lover? Why did he get together with the upstart Beta, and the relationship seems to be very close.
Although everyone knows that aristocratic women have always been bold and bold in their lifestyle, would the king feel a thorn in his heart when he knew about this?
So he just said hello to Angel and pretended that he didn't know Angel.
The three of them entered the house. After chatting for a while, Angel and Kirsten's wife went to other rooms to chat, leaving the two men in the study.
"I heard that you had a secret conversation with the king, saying that you supported his behavior of sending troops to attack the underground demon kingdom from time to time." Without outsiders, Kirstin said bluntly: "I want to know why you do what you do. Make this decision.”
Beta was a little surprised: "The news spread so fast?"
Kirstin nodded: "Not long after you came out of the palace, the news spread among the major noble families."
Beta thought about it carefully and understood that the king must be behind this matter. He probably wanted to tell other nobles that it doesn't matter if you don't support me. There will be people who understand me, and the other person's status is no lower than yours. That is the Pope. .
Although he is the pope of a small religious sect, Huolaiwen is also a small country.
"You don't like the king's behavior either?"
"I really don't understand." Kirstin frowned and said, "Since the other party is living well underground, why do they have to cause trouble for them? The demons have never been our biggest enemy, we humans are the biggest enemy."
"The chaotic evil demons are indeed no match for us. They are too exhausted, but the demon kingdom of the order-neutral camp may not be." Beta was very optimistic about Kirstin's potential, so he explained: "The growth of the demons The upper limit is very high. We humans only have a large average number, and the birth rate of the demons is actually not much worse than ours. The environment in the demon world is harsh, coupled with internal fighting, they have established a large scale, but it is different when they come to our human world. Underground, the living environment is several times better than in the demon world. A good environment can allow the population to grow massively. Once they have enough high-end combat power and a sufficient population, we humans are not their opponent at all, even if we have a few. One billion people.”
"Actually, I understand, but it takes time, doesn't it?" Kirstin said in a slow tone: "This will take at least two to three hundred years, and it's not our turn to worry about it."
Beta frowned when he heard this: "It seems that you are looking for me for other reasons."
Kirstin was silent for a while and said: "Someone asked me to bring you a message. I hope you will not support such a willful move by the king. If you agree, you can win the friendship of the nobles in the entire royal city."
Beta was silent for a while, then sneered: "This friendship is so cheap."
"It seems that everyone is aware of the danger of the underground demon clan, but because of your position, you have to oppose even what the king is doing, which is the right thing?"
Now it was Kirsten's turn to be silent.
Beta stood up and said: "Although I don't like the current king either, at least he has a long-term vision and the ability to take action, and you... are just a bunch of waste that is holding us back."
Seeing that Beta was about to leave, Kirstin was also anxious: "Your Excellency Beta, please seriously consider our suggestions. The king's power needs to be checked and balanced, and powerful power must be kept in a cage."
Beta smiled softly, turned and left the study. After going out, he found Angel, and the two left the manor.
Halfway through, Angel asked in confusion: "Looking at your expression, you seem to be very angry. I have never seen such an expression on your face."
"It's just that I felt very uncomfortable seeing a group of people who looked up to me." Beta sighed: "In the country of Huolaiwen, one generation is really inferior to the other. Those nobles three hundred years ago didn't seem to have any wisdom at all. passed on to their offspring.”
As he was talking, Beta suddenly saw a blood-stained cavalryman holding a tattered red flag, galloping down the street, heading straight for the palace.
It seems... something big happened?
