"That Prison Flower insulted the Maville mercenaries! Who else in the world can resist such a terrible round of bombing? Just ask who else can resist!"
After more than a thousand mercenaries were easily wiped out, Maville City immediately opened the city and surrendered.
No wonder no one dared to attack the empire head-on in the past ten years-with such super-standard weapons stationed in the empire, any ground troops are just live targets.
However, after the excitement, people immediately began to discuss another matter.
"... No, with our limited manpower and strength, are we going to compete with the princess for territory?"
"That marquis is the shady guy, and the empire just wants to cheat us of our registration fee!"
"Let's see how they plan to explain it tomorrow."
The princess's high-profile appearance did make the honorary nobles who participated in the war feel frustrated.
After all, most people don't even have their own attendants, so they can only find mercenaries willing to cooperate to sign long-term contracts. A small number of contestants with backup did not dare to break the rules and bring many combatants, so they just brought more money and supplies.
——But the princess drove a warship over.
In the afternoon, the palace ship had already flown outside the city of Moti. However, since there was no air port for flying ships nearby, it anchored directly in the air.
At this time, no matter whether they were dissatisfied or not, when they really saw the black warship with their own eyes, everyone would involuntarily feel a little awe in their hearts.
"...That is the absolute power that symbolizes the empire."
...
In addition to paying attention to the movements of the princess, the people in Moti City are also observing Aarons' reaction.
This honorary marquis was just a well-known incompetent waste some time ago, but he didn't expect that after being summoned by the emperor, he suddenly became the princess's fiancé.
Some people said that he got the treasure left by Marquis Moti, some people said that this was just a political deal made by the emperor and other nobles, and some people said that the princess was actually just an incompetent person without talent - in short, no one believed that Aarons had any real strength.
Of course, there are indeed a very small number of people who believe that Aarons has actually been hiding some special talents. However, they did not discuss it with others, so this view did not spread.
However, the reporters soon discovered that Aarons once again left the Marquis's mansion under the escort of the Royal Guard Knights.
"The Marquis is going out of the city? Is he going to see Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
"But the ship didn't land? How is he going to get on?"
"Isn't there a small flying machine? The kind that can be driven by wind magic."
Since there were no interview opportunities, the reporters just followed Aarons from a distance. After seeing Aarons go out of the city gate closest to the airship, they immediately dispersed.
No matter what Aarons and the princess want to talk about, it will not affect them writing a manuscript for the evening.
"Marquis, over there is the flying car that will pick you up."
Of course, Aarons has no time to care about those reporters-he received a call from the third prince before, saying that someone was waiting for him on the airship.
"Is that a car? It has no wheels."
"The wheels are just decorations. People who haven't ridden in one won't understand."
After leaving the city, Aarons' memories of his past life came back to him when he saw the flying car that looked like a wheelless van waiting for him not far away.
"Then you can take it here. I'll go visit Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"Yes. We'll be on standby at the city gate. We'll escort you home after you get off."
The Royal Guards were very dedicated to their duties, so Aarons didn't want to say any more polite words. Now that his identity was somewhat sensitive, he had to pay attention to his personal safety at all times.
"Please go back and ask my Karin to come and wait with you. Karin is the wolf girl you met before."
"Yes, please rest assured."
After saying goodbye to the three bodyguards, Aarons walked to the flying car. A female magician standing by the car took the initiative to bow to him after seeing him.
"Good afternoon, Lord Marquis Aarons Moti, I am the pilot of the flying car that will take you aboard."
"Should I take this to board?"
"Yes, because the Prison Flower has been anchored in the air, this small car is the only way to get on and off the ship."
Aarons does not understand magic technology or military affairs, and he has no idea what the characteristics of the Empire's air battleships are. However, he began to question why the Empire did not send warships to support when the beast tide hit the territory.
"This kind of ship should fly very fast, why didn't there come a few ships during the last border beast tide?"
"Don't you know?? Although the Empire's air battleships do have overwhelming firepower, the consumption of magic source stones in each battle is also terrifying. The battle in the morning almost used up the five tons of magic source stones brought. "
"So that's it, it's a fuel problem."
Although he is not a professional, Aarons still knows that logistics support is a troublesome and complicated matter.
The magic source stone itself is a special mineral with a large volume and light weight. Mining and transportation are actually quite troublesome.
And if this kind of ship takes a lot of time to refuel after each attack, it really can't be used as a quick response weapon.
"Please sit tight, we are going to take off."
After sitting in a seat similar to a van, Aarons immediately felt the restraint of gravity-it was like he was climbing at high speed like taking an elevator, and it didn't feel like riding a car at all.
But soon this sense of oppression disappeared, and the windowless carriage shook a few times and then completely stopped.
"We have boarded the ship, please follow me, Her Royal Highness the Princess is waiting for you. "
Knowing that he was just a guest, Aarons did not intend to do anything extra. After getting off the car, he immediately followed the female magician to move in the cabin.
The cabin of the warship was not as spacious as the passenger ship he had taken before. Most of the cabins and passages seemed very small. After asking the female magician who led the way, he understood the general reason.
"Because the size of the magic source furnace is still too large, four magic source furnaces occupy half of the entire ship's space, and more than half of the remaining space is used to store magic source stones and install various magic arrays, so the living area is actually less than one-fifth."
——Aarons originally thought that the interior of this ship should be a luxurious palace in the sky, but he didn't expect it to be a war machine that prioritizes efficiency.
"Go through that door and you'll be there. I'll wait for you outside."
"Thank you. "
Because the hatch looked plain and serious, and it didn't look like a princess's boudoir at all, Aarons didn't care too much and just rang the doorbell on the wall.
"I'm Aarons Moti, and I want to see Her Royal Highness the Princess."
The person inside didn't reply, but the hatch slowly opened by itself. When the warm light flowed out of the open door and shone on Aarons, he also saw the person he wanted to see.
"Welcome to my palace in the sky, Marquis."
——Princess of the Empire, Claire Armand.
