(Thanks to the low-key sacred cow and nightmare shark monthly pass!Thank you! brothers!)

There is no eternal friendship, only eternal interests. Politics is such a cold and heartless thing, and when Elbert lost power, the cold reality gave him a slap in the face!

As he had anticipated, the formation of an alliance of nobles was also greatly hindered. The lords of those border areas knew how terrible the undead disaster was, but when faced with the practical problems of how many troops to send, the mobilization of food and grass, and the distribution of funds, they showed a surprisingly consistent stupidity.

Blame each other and pretend to be deaf and dumb became their norm, and when the threat of the undead disaster loomed, Elbert was unable to find a breakthrough to solve the problem.

In the south, Zenas's actions have been surprisingly smooth, and since his venture, the forces that support him have snowballed.

Loyal subordinates who had been loyal to Zenas but had been dismissed from their duties by the council began to join forces, and with the help of junior and middle-ranking officers, they regained control of the army, and two cities and three military camps in the area around Vic County had declared their allegiance to Zenas.

Zenas began to coordinate this force that belonged to him alone, returning to power under the threat of the undead and bringing his forces together. It also marked the beginning of a new faction led by Zenas, who still used the name of the lighthouse and declared that the Valcam Elder Council was a despicable traitor who had stolen the fruits of victory, and completely parted ways with the latter.

By this time, Charlotte, who was studying the Scourge of the Dead in Dominco, Vic, had a vague realization that his unintentional move had once again made history. Because of his actions, Zenas began to become independent and broke into the tide of history with a completely new attitude.

- What about himself, and Claire around him, and what kind of attitude will be written in the history books in the future?

- Will it be obscure, or will it be a brush-off, or will it be ...... Will he become a key figure in the future that will affect the world of Steeu, and even the entire multiverse? This way of thinking about herself from the timeline is very interesting for Charlotte. Charlotte shook the glass tube and thought to herself as she looked at Claire beside her.

"What's wrong? Is there anything on my face?"

Writing down notes on the paper with a quill pen intently, Claire sensed Charlotte's gaze and looked up strangely.

"Why? Can't you see it? Maybe I'm a gay?"

"Humph!" Claire sneered as contemptuously as sarcastically, "Don't I know who you like?"

Charlotte's face turned red, "Who, who! Don't talk nonsense! I don't like Cynthia!"

"I know you don't like Cynthia, she's already in the past. ”

Charlotte panicked instead, and he pretended to be calm and asked, "Then who do you say I like?" Cecilia, you don't say it's Devonne's flat-chested elf, do you?"

"No, it's my mentor. Claire's emerald green pupils smirked.

Charlotte's breathing became rapid. "Huh?" he said with a tremor in his voice, "Death declares Nesta? ”

"Alright!" Claire smiled evilly, "I was wrong, I should say that it was our mentor." ”

Charlotte coughed out.

If you really want to talk about it, he and Claire are indeed brothers. And the same teacher who taught them was Charlotte's cheap sister ——. Clayderman.

"Hu, hu, nonsense!"

"I'm not talking nonsense. The diary you looked at in the morning was something left by Her Majesty Sylvia, right? Ah, by the way, the glass tube is going to explode. ”

Bang——!

The two waved their hands to drive away the dark green explosion dust, and Charlotte stumbled in the foggy environment, "You, you're talking nonsense! You should know who she is! She is not only my sister, our common teacher, but also the second generation of the Lord of Illusions!

There is no need to hide Sylvia's true identity from Claire, as early as when she was in the Dark Regions, Charlotte asked Sylvia's attitude. Since even Vivien and Lolita already know, Claire, who has a mentor and apprenticeship with Sylvia, naturally does not need to hide it.

"Ah, of course I know, that's why you're keeping this relationship a secret, right?" Through the dark green smoke, Claire's voice carried a hint of inexplicable emotion, like loneliness and agreement, "You are really arrogant, but I can understand your feelings." If you say it this way, you may be able to understand you, but I'm also a very arrogant guy. No, I guess it's stupid. In short, to be able to like someone with all your heart...... It was really a very happy and very sad thing. ”

Charlotte was stunned. At this time, the smoke cleared, and Charlotte burst into laughter.

Claire is such a partner, whether he agrees with his decision or not, he can always understand his feelings. Whether it's the deep-seated motives or the seemingly stupid superfluous feelings that are simply unnecessary, Claire can always understand.

Just like Charlotte can understand him.

"What about you? Claire. Do you still like Vivien Leigh now, and you don't just worry about me when you want to come back to Erosa with me, right?"

Claire's face turned red, but he looked at Charlotte calmly, and there was no hint of dodging in his eyes.

"Well, you're right! To me, Vivien Leigh is Vivien Leigh! She's not Elenie, and she's not some terrible monster that will drag you into the abyss of death!" Claire took a deep breath and spat out her own declaration almost forcefully, "She will always be in my heart the lovely girl who will say that the slums will disappear forever in the town of Santos, the knight girl who will show her extraordinary will in the battle of Lucerne, and the immaculate princess who will be confused by her beliefs in the water capital!"

Charlotte didn't say anything, just smiled and waited for the expected answer.

"So—you'll have to be prepared, Charlotte. Claire's pale face also showed a smile, but the smile was more sharp in understanding, "If you are really mad enough to be bad for Vivien Leigh one day, I am absolutely, absolutely!"

He pointed at Charlotte!

"I'm going to beat you with my own hands—"

"Hah! is it just a defeat?" Charlotte twisted her nose, "if you can do it, just let the horse come!" But if that's a prerequisite for making a move on me, then I don't think you'll have a chance in your life." ”

The two best friends smiled happily as if they had just drunk a cold beer on a summer day.

At this moment, the door of the camp's wooden hut was pushed open, and Lolita broke into the room in a rage.

"Teachers, something is wrong! Moon just received the news that the undead scourge has broken out!"
