Start with Island Lord

Castle Neuschwanstein.

Dinner time.

Selena, who had been ignoring foreign affairs, suddenly asked: "Dear, what is the scenery at the 11th Ring Road like?"

Rosen was using his mage's hands to help her skin a crystal lobster. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that the perception is sharper and the strength is stronger."

As he spoke, he removed the tedious shrimp shells from the crystal white and tender shrimp meat and gently placed it on the dinner plate in front of Selena.

"More strictly speaking, it is far less comfortable than the inside of the Dharma Ring, because the difficulty is many times that of connecting the ordinary Dharma Ring, and a lot of energy will be consumed when connecting."

"The risk is also many times greater. You may face a void life full of maliciousness."

Selena's belly has become pregnant again. Her body, which had just lost weight due to childbirth, has become round and round again, and her appetite has become very good.

She tasted the delicious food carefully, with a satisfied look on her face: "It sounds scary."

She actually asked casually, because Rosen would discuss magic with her from time to time and would also share new achievements in magic, so she had a general understanding of her husband's progress in magic power.

After hearing the news, she thought about it for a moment and roughly understood what was going on.

The younger sister Evelin on the side asked: "Brother, they all say that you have more power than God."

In front of his closest family members, Rosen would naturally not say nonsense.

He smiled and said: "Evelin, the legendary mage is still a mortal. As for the powerful power, it does not come from the body of a mortal, but from the wisdom of a mortal."

Rosen nodded his forehead, and then said to Selena: "My dear, do you want to peel another one for you?"

Selena was a little moved, but finally shook her head: "No, if I keep eating like this, I will become an ugly fat man."

She felt like she was about to develop a double chin.

Rosen thought she looked very good-looking now, but he respected his wife's opinion, and then said: "It seems that what I did in the academy had a huge impact."

Otherwise, the news wouldn’t have reached Selena’s ears that night.

Selena spread her hands: "It's not only huge, it's simply earth-shattering. It almost overturns my common sense of magic."

Even his wife, who knew him very well, said this, and others were naturally more shocked.

Shortly after dinner, Rosen received an encrypted call from his mentor: "Rosen, what happened? Why are you so high-profile all of a sudden?"

Rosen briefly explained the situation: "Through some special channels, the Radiant Empire already knows my secret."

"So, there is no need to hide it. Why not publish it and gain some reputation for me."

"Well, it's good that you know what's going on, but this is really shocking."

"It's nothing surprising. I'll tell you the process in detail when I have time."

He was on the phone with his tutor, and 'Duke Rosen', who was still working diligently in the study near the lake like an old scalper, also received an urgent request for an audience.

The person requesting an urgent audience was none other than Miss Irene, the special envoy of the Glorious Empire.

At this time, Duke Rosen was greatly improved by Rosen. Even his soul aura and mana aura were carefully disguised, and his body was further refined, becoming a perfect peripheral to Rosen's body.

Of course he knew Eileen's purpose, and he had key arrangements for this beautiful and glorious envoy.

Gotta handle it well.

Therefore, he focused most of his attention on Duke Rosen.

He immediately agreed to the meeting.

'Click~click~click~'

The sound of high heels hitting the terrazzo floor was as rapid as the raindrops before the storm.

After a while, Irene walked quickly to Rosen, regardless of the obstruction of the housekeeper, Alai. After a hurried salute, her pair of almond-shaped beautiful eyes stared at him hatefully.

Rosen waved away Alai, the housekeeper who followed him, and faced Irene's glare with a smile.

Alai was vaguely aware of the relationship between the two and closed the study door wisely.

As the door closed, Erin finally spoke.

"The Duke is really good at telling lies. He lied to me for so long!"

Rosen spread his hands: "Miss Eileen, Queen Zoya has actually known this news for a long time. Didn't she tell you?"

Erin shook her head: "Not really."

Rosen sighed softly: "It seems that in the eyes of the Queen, Miss Irene is just a tool to obtain information."

Irene frowned: "Duke, there is no need for you to sow discord between me and Zhuo Ya. My job level is not high enough, so it is normal that I was not notified."

"On the other hand, you lied to me again and again. I thought you really liked me in vain."

"It turns out it was all fake!"

She originally planned to live in Weiland permanently, and even planned to secretly give birth to one or two children for the Duke, but something like this happened.

Now that the Queen already knows that the Duke has no intention of hiding his true power, it means that the two sides intend to completely break up, and she, the glorious envoy, naturally has no need to stay in Weiland.

She was not worried that Rosen would kill her, but the broken dream made her extremely angry and sad. She felt that no man in this world was good!

If Irene at this time is a fiercely burning fire, Rosen is the calm water.

He immediately said: "I want to clarify something."

"In terms of personal power, I did lie to you, but it was out of political necessity."

"But on a personal level, I'm telling the truth."

"I really like beauties like Miss. Every word we say when we are intimate is from my sincerity."

"On the other hand, Miss Irene, is approaching me out of a mission from the Queen or a personal wish?"

Eileen was immediately speechless by the question, and her fiercely burning anger dimmed a lot.

Yes, her purpose is not pure, so she is not qualified to question the Duke.

The anger in his heart suddenly turned into a dull resentment.

She actually knew that it was never a good thing for her to be entangled with the Duke, and she should never have high expectations for him.

But she still had a vague hope in her heart, hoping that she would have some weight in the other person's heart.

But the reality greatly disappointed her.

He took a deep breath and suppressed the resentment in his heart: "No matter what, I have to return to the country. Or are you not going to let me go back to the country, but are going to throw me directly into prison?"

"Of course I will let you go. But I want to say that no matter when, I will remember Miss Eileen. As long as you are willing to accept me, my arms will always be open to you."

‘Bah~’

Irene found a way to vent her resentment: "I will never betray the Queen."

Rosen raised his eyebrows: "Will you not betray the Queen? Or will you not betray the Lord of Glory?"

Erin was startled: "Is there any difference?"

Rosen looked serious: "Of course there is a difference."

"The Queen is the ruler of the empire. She has been in charge of the empire for forty years and its national power has been growing day by day."

"It is true that the Lord of Glory is the founder of the Glory Kingdoms, and the Empire is just one of them."

"To be honest, the Lord of Glory's governing ability is not very good. His high status today is largely due to the Queen."

Erin listened silently, because she knew Rosen was right.

In terms of cultivation, the Lord of Glory with the power of ten rings is naturally unparalleled. No, that's not right, it can't be said to be unparalleled, at least far inferior to the young Duke in front of him.

In terms of ability to govern the empire, she has never seen anyone more powerful than her cousin. The Lord of Glory is several levels behind her cousin.

Therefore, deep down in her heart, she admired and even worshiped her cousin.

He is actually afraid of the Lord of Glory.

Rosen's eyes flashed slightly, sensing an opportunity, and continued: "Miss Eileen, you must know a lot about the invasion of Levand demons, right?"

Eileen nodded: "I know the general outline of the matter."

Rosen said seriously: "After experiencing the Levand demon invasion incident, I know very well that our mortal nations can compete, but we must not consume each other."

"Because the demon in the void is our common enemy."

"I personally admire the Queen very much. If the Queen is willing to coexist peacefully with Weilan, then I am willing to help the Queen break through the ten rings and even become a legend."

Erin's heart was shocked: "Duke, do you want to provoke civil strife in the empire?!"

Rosen immediately retorted: "Miss Eileen, if the Lord of Glory is a wise monarch, why can't he tolerate the Queen's promotion to Legend?"

"If he is not, then he should stand on the sidelines and watch instead of dictating to the empire of 600 million people, even occupying huge amounts of national resources, and interfering with the real monarch's ability to govern the country."

Eileen snorted coldly: "You just want to provoke civil strife in the empire!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Rosen suddenly raised his hand, and the mage's hand driven by the legendary magic grabbed Irene directly to his side, and then let her sit on his lap.

Erin was shocked: "What are you doing? Do you want to force me?!"

"I'm telling you, if you do this, unless you kill me afterwards, I will definitely try my best to get revenge!"

Rosen raised his hand and gestured to his mouth: "Hush~ Let me help you advance to the fifth ring."

"I don't want it!"

"The scenery of the Fifth Ring Road is very beautiful. Do you really not want it?"

As he spoke, Rosen poured the power of faith into Erin's body, raising her mana to the peak of the fourth ring.

If it were before, he would still need Irene to cooperate with the magic ring to help her break through the ring wall, but after getting Naya's secret method, he no longer needs it.

"I ask again, do you really not need it?"

Erin's will was shaken and she remained silent.

While she was silent, Rosen broke through her magic power to the fifth level.

Eileen said in a low voice: "You insisted on giving it to me. I don't owe you."

Rosen held her in his arms and said warmly: "Of course you don't owe me, I owe you."

"After all, it was me who caused you to divorce your husband, and also caused you to have to return to China."

"If I were not the Duke and you were not the imperial envoy, and we were not bound by our responsibilities, then maybe we could be happy together and have children together."

Erin's tight body softened a lot: "Don't say such things, it's impossible."

"It's possible."

"You're talking nonsense! I don't believe it!"

Rosen whispered into Irene's ear: "Miss Irene, your magic talent is very good. I can improve your mana step by step. It is estimated that it can be raised to about nine levels."

"With the power of nine rings, you can live for at least five hundred years, and you will always remain young and beautiful."

"And I can live almost that long, maybe a little longer, but not too long."

"As long as we work hard together, the Natural Alliance and the Radiant Empire will definitely be able to restore peace, and then we will definitely be able to stay together in the future."

These words were like the most secret and soft soul needle, quietly burrowing into the depths of Irene's soul.

"Duke, stop talking, I won't believe you anymore!"

Erin shook her head repeatedly, as if to throw Rosen's words out of her mind.

Rosen saw her hesitation: "Erin, I don't want to disrupt the empire, and I don't want to see the queen with outstanding abilities abdicate."

"In fact, I hope she will take the throne completely, because she is a truly wise monarch, and I like dealing with such a monarch."

"Because there is actually no unsolvable contradiction between our two countries, we can completely reach a consensus again through rational consultation."

"You know in your heart that since I am a legendary wizard, I will definitely have a way to unify the Natural Alliance. No one can stop this, right?"

Erin wanted to say that the empire could, but a voice deep in her heart told her that the empire might not be able to do it, after all, the man in front of her had unparalleled talents.

His magic power practice is top-notch, and his governance is also top-notch, and his reputation among the people is as high as a god.

As long as he raises his arm, countless people in the Natural Alliance will gather around him and let him drive them.

Of course, the empire can try its best to stop it, and then the two countries will fall into a long war.

Maybe the Empire will win in the end, but it will suffer heavy losses, which will allow the Holy Elf Empire and even the Demon Kingdom across the sea to take advantage.

So she was silent.

Rosen continued to whisper: "Erin, you don't have to leave."

"Welan and the Glorious Empire are far apart. Even if the two sides go to war, the intensity will be very limited and they will not become mortal enemies."

"I will also try my best to control the scale of the conflict and minimize the losses of our two countries."

"But it is difficult for me to do this alone. I also need the help of the Queen. And between the Queen and I, we need a liaison that both sides trust."

"So, I hope you will continue to stay in Weilan, bring my words to the Queen, tell her my thoughts, and also the Queen Tell me your thoughts. "

"Let the Natural Alliance and the Glorious Empire coexist peacefully, support each other, and fight against aliens and demons together."

"After all, we are all human, aren't we?"

Irene pursed her lips gently: "The Queen won't listen to me, she respects her grandfather very much."

"Irene~~How do you know if you don't try it?"

"Just like you and me, if you don't try it, how do you know that you can experience such extreme pleasure?"

"Hmm?"

Rosen is very familiar with Irene's body. While talking, his hands are naturally not idle, secretly teasing.

Irene suddenly remembered the endless wonderful experiences in the past, and twisted her body a little uneasily: "Duke, you are the devil!"

"No, I just saw the most correct path, and hope that our human race can take this path."

"You and I both know that the Glorious Empire is so huge that it is impossible for foreign enemies to defeat it, but if it takes the wrong path, it may cause the empire to collapse from the inside."

"And the biggest reason for taking the wrong path is the incompetent's reckless command."

"So, the capable should be promoted and the incompetent should be kicked out!"

Irene was silent.

"Try it, okay?"

While speaking, Rosen clearly felt that he had broken through Irene's defenses, just as his body had broken through her defenses.

Irene bit her lip tightly to prevent herself from losing control, and nodded slightly: "Okay, let's try it."

Seeing that she agreed, Rosen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but knew that this was just the beginning, and he had to promise long-term benefits.

"When your soul regains stability, I will continue to improve your magic power, about once a year, until the ninth ring."

"Maybe when you reach the ninth ring, I can find a new way to improve your power and help you reach the tenth ring, or even the legendary ring."

Erin was very moved, her eyes were like water waves, and she looked deeply at Rosen: "You didn't lie to me?"

"Think about it, apart from hiding my true power for self-protection, have I ever lied to you about anything else?"

"You also know that I don't make promises easily. But if I make a promise, I will definitely do everything I can to fulfill it."

That's true.

"Don't play here, it would be bad if someone finds out. Let's go to the secret room behind the study?"

"Yes, ma'am~"
