She Chooses To Destroy the World
Chapter 95: The situation is stalemate. ...
Just listen to what the high priest said, and you will understand that he has full control over this matter.
Obviously, this matter can no longer be concealed. The king scanned the attendants in the room very severely:
"Who the **** missed the wind?"
The high priest looked at the king with a look of hatred for iron and steel:
"You need someone to leak the wind... You are the prince of a country. It is really disgusting to use such a trick... Now the carriage with the coat of arms of the Flamel family is parked brightly in front of the court. Do you really think that as long as you coax me out of the side door and prevent me from meeting Earl Freeman, I won't know what you are all doing?"
The king was so embarrassed that he couldn't say a word. The high priest stepped forward and tore up the contract that had not had time to sign, then turned to Vioretta and Ned:
"Go back and tell your master that this is the realm of the **** of light, and the ghost of the dark night is never allowed to be wild here. Your Majesty, the King, was confused, and I would never allow darkness to be introduced into this kingdom of light."
The two wizards always maintained their proper manners. They nodded to the high priest and saluted the king:
"Since your Majesty cannot sign a treaty with us for the time being, then we will leave first."
The high priest snorted in reply. Liliel, who had been following the king, stood up at this time, planning to mix in with the two wizards and leave this place of right and wrong with them. However, even though the high priest had not seen her several times, he could still recognize her as the female mage next to the king. He cast a contemptuous look at her and cursed:
"Shameless witch!"
Liliel pretended not to hear, and quickly slipped away.
Now that the protagonist of the negotiation has left, the duchess, who is sitting next to her silently, also stands up at this time:
"His Majesty kept me here to be a testimony. Now that there is nothing to testify, then we will leave first."
The king looked at the princess with a plea for help, as if he wanted her not to leave. Perhaps he thought that as long as the princess was here, the high priest would always save him a little face and would not be too harsh on him. But the Duchess did not want to stay here and be affected by the anger of the high priest.
She said goodbye to the king, then smiled at the high priest, and the high priest nodded in greeting to her. Then, his eyes stayed on Alice who was following the duchess for a moment.
The anger of the high priest had nothing to do with Alice. But when his eyes looked at her, Alice suddenly had a very unpleasant feeling, as if something was looking at her through the eyes of the high priest... Is that the God of Light?
Alice shivered and touched her neck subconsciously.
Fortunately, the pendant of the dark night was wearing on her neck at this time. I don't know if this pendant can help her hide from the eyes of the **** of light.
This subconscious action of her was seen by the high priest, and when he noticed the pendant on her neck, the high priest looked disgusted, and this made Alice a little relieved.
This is the look in human eyes.
After finally leaving the audience hall, Alice finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The wizards who came out in front of them did not leave, but stood at the entrance of the Hall of Appreciation and waited for them. When they saw Alice preparing to leave with the Duchess, Vioretta came over and smiled at the Duchess:
"His Royal Highness, please lend us your knight for a while, okay?"
The duke nodded in agreement, and Vioretta pulled Alice aside.
Alice was glanced at by the high priest, her heart was still beating, she looked at Vioretta:
"what should I do now?"
"It doesn't matter." Vioretta looked calm and composed, "This was originally expected. I will pass the news back to the Mage Tower in a while... Your Excellency Archmage Thale will take care of the rest."
Alice was a little surprised:
"The next thing?"
"Don't worry, the archmage has already planned it." There was a dangerous smile on Vioretta's face. "If you want to know in advance, I can also tell you. But... I still want to leave a little surprise for comparison. OK."
They talked a few words briefly, and Vioretta said that they would not leave the royal capital for the time being, and would wait until the matter was over. If there is any need for Alice in between, I will go to the duchess' mansion to find her. Alice nodded:
"I hope the matter can be resolved quickly...otherwise, in a few months, I will return to West Felix with the Duchess."
"It's okay," Vioretta said. "Everything is under control."
Hearing Vioretta's words, Alice could only relax. After they had finished speaking, Alice returned to the old house of Quinte with the duchess.
She was sent to the east by His Majesty the King just a few days after she had lived there. Although this house is not familiar to her, it gave her a sense of home and made Alice's body and mind completely relaxed. She realized that she had already regarded the place where the Duchess Felix was at home, somehow.
She looked familiar to all the maids here, and even the knight Arnold, who had a very ordinary relationship with her, looked very kind now, and told her about the various situations that had happened in the past few months.
In the past two months, although the honorable niece Miss Miranda has participated in more than ten proms, she still has not found a suitable marriage partner. In other words, there is not even a single possibility. Although there are many aristocratic children of Wangdu's age, most of them are frivolous. As the aunt, the Duchess, of course, can't let Miss Miranda come into contact with those undecent floating children. But to find someone who can make the duchess look satisfied is as difficult as the sky.
This alone is enough to make the Duchess headache, but Miss Miranda herself is not a worry-free character. She was not interested in blind dates at first, and after attending a few dance parties, she found it not new. In the end, she just hid quietly in a place where no one was there. As for the salons often held by the Duchess...Miss Miranda finds it even more boring, she just shows her face every night, and then she says she has a headache and never goes downstairs again.
How can it be possible to find a suitable marriage partner in this way! On the one hand, the duchess was angry about this, and on the other hand, she felt that the noble children who often haunted the prom salon were unreliable. Thinking that I couldn't complete Miranda's mother's request, I had a headache that I didn't know what to do.
However, Miss Miranda was not uninterested in everything. As long as she had the opportunity, she would pester the Duchess and ask the Duchess to agree with her to learn swordsmanship. The Duchess originally refused to agree, so Miss Miranda simply took a branch and made gestures in the backyard. This is not to practice on your own, but to make people unhappy on purpose.
How can a lady do such a thing! The duchess was so troubled by her that she had to agree to find someone to teach her, but the female swordsmanship teacher was never found. Miss Miranda took the opportunity to ask Alice to teach. The duchess let go and waited until Alice came back. Let her be Miss Miranda's swordsmanship teacher.
When Alice heard about it from Arnold, her expression collapsed.
Originally, she thought that after returning from the east, there would be no troublesome tasks... But now she wants to teach Miss Miranda swordsmanship? Being a knight is really not a moment of leisure.
Alice remembered that Miss Miranda had indeed mentioned this to her when she first arrived. But Alice didn't take this matter to heart at all, just asking her to ask for permission from the Duchess first. Unexpectedly, the Duchess agreed.
Sure enough, on the second day, the Duchess mentioned this to her. As a knight under the Duchess, what can Alice say? She can only agree.
The duke has prepared a light sword for Miss Miranda in advance, as well as light clothing suitable for sword dancing, but she has not been allowed to start practicing. It was not until Alice came back that Alice began to teach her how to hold the sword and the most basic sword-swinging movements. Alice originally thought that Miss Miranda would be boring to practice for an hour, but she did not expect that she would stick to it and spend a lot of time practicing every day.
"This is an opportunity I got when I pestered the Duchess for a long time. How could I not cherish it!" said Miss Miranda when Alice praised Miss Miranda.
The teaching of swordsmanship had to be suspended for a few days, because a very grand ball was about to be held in the palace. Both the Duchess and Miss Miranda received the invitations, but the Duchess did not plan to go. Instead, she asked Alice to accompany Miss Miranda to participate. On the one hand, she could act as a guard to protect Miss Miranda from being harassed by strange floating children. You can also inquire about the situation a few days ago.
Finally got another chance to meet with His Majesty the King, Alice then remembered that the last time she met with His Majesty the King, due to the tension, the high priest appeared too unfortunately... She seemed to have forgotten something-
Regarding Jill, she has not had time to tell His Majesty the King.
Before arriving in the royal capital, Alice had already discussed with the two wizards how to deal with Jill. They intend to forge a reply letter from the Archmage Talus to His Majesty the King and ask Jill to send it to Count Rachel. In this way, Jill can go to rescue his companions, and he can be exonerated himself. If he can gain the trust of Earl Rachel, he may also be useful in the future.
Originally they planned to ask His Majesty the King to draw up the content of the forged letter, but judging from the current situation...whether cooperation between the two parties can be successfully achieved is still unknown. The handling of Jill...probably can only be postponed.
Alice originally thought she would have to wait a long time, but the night before the palace ball began, she received a note sent by Vioretta from the hotel:
"everything's ready."
