Seeing his cousin disappearing into the night with a puff of smoke, Charles could only shake his head helplessly.

Mikhail was the nephew of the queen of the Rurik kingdom, and his parents were raised by Nicholas II and his wife after their parents died fighting demons on the Western front.

This is something Charles knew from his last visit to Abyss City.

Later, Elizabeth said another thing to Charles, two years ago, Mikhail suddenly made a big news, and made a big battle on the road during the evening rush hour after work to confess to the goddess in his heart, but was chased by the other party with two swords and cut half of the abyss city.

Later, Mikhail, who wanted to be quiet because of his broken love, was thrown into Elizabeth's caravan by Nicholas II, and went around with the caravan under the pseudonym Thomas Cromwell.

As for the Kingdom of Visma, which was used to cover Mikhail's identity...... It can only be said that the spies sent by Rurik are too powerful, and after some stories, they become the queen of the kingdom.

Since the current king and queen of Visma have no children, Nicholas II has planned for Mikhail to pass on the past, under the pretext that the children of the king and queen have been fostered on the territory of the elves.

It seems that the Elven Royal Court not only does not object to making Mikhail the king of the Visma Kingdom, but also provides various conveniences and cooperates in all aspects.

Well...... This practice is indeed very demonic. According to the routine, the darkness hidden under human society is often the equipment library and experience area of the protagonists, and maybe it is still a marriage agency. If Mikhail has another girl in office, it is estimated that the girl will go through a storm and then "repent" and then enter the protagonist's harem.

Elizabeth taught Charles more than just magic, and conspiracy was in her syllabus. When he first learned about this, Charles was confused, he couldn't learn this kind of operation, and the water behind him was too deep.

and Mikhail was not hacked to death by Artoria on the street at that time, which shows from the side that his force value is still very high.

Charles was sweating profusely when he heard this, but Artoria always treated him like a child.

In the carriage, the master and apprentice conspired to match.

After the conspiracy was over, Charles told me about Mira by the way.

Elizabeth replied, "I know about it, and I've been keeping my men watching. If Auston I is genuine, it will be a good thing for both parties. ”

Charles nodded, as the backbone of feudal society, becoming a queen can be said to be the pinnacle of Mira's life.

Then Elizabeth asked Charles, "What about yourself, what do you think?"

Charles looked confused, how did this topic come to him?

He shook his head, "Didn't think about it. ”

Elizabeth touched his head, "Tomorrow you can find a time to go to the fortune teller in the east of the city to do a marriage divination, so that you can know it." ”

Charles's face darkened, and he shook his head again, what if the soothsayer said to himself, "You are destined to be a lone star, and you will die without a companion, and you will be lonely all your life"?

Do you have to wipe your neck on the spot and cross it again?

As a man, you still have to leave yourself some thoughts about the future.

Elizabeth, on the other hand, began to count her fingers and said, "I see that Mordred is very clingy to you, and you care about her very much, I think she is very good." ”

Charles continued to shake his head, although he lived a young life because of the effects of hormones and the like in his physical development, but he was still an uncle at heart, so in his heart he always regarded Mordred as a junior, if he had any thoughts about a child like Mordred, he would have been captured by 110 and had no chance to cross, "Don't talk nonsense, I don't have that kind of affection for her at all." ”

Seeing that Elizabeth was about to count again, Charles hurriedly reached out and pressed her paw, "Sister, don't just talk about me, I'm only in the single digit age, let's talk about you." ”

Elizabeth gave Charles a brainstorm.

At this point the carriage returned to the place where they lived, and when the door opened, they were surprised to find another carriage parked there, and an elf they had not expected was standing there watching the two of them.

"Grandpa!" said Elizabeth, who rushed over and hugged old Charles.

Charles also hurried over to say hello, and then he asked, "Old man, why are you here?"

Old Charles said to Xiao Ru, "I'll come to you." ”

Obviously, the old Charles's hearing is beyond that of ordinary elves, and he then said to Charles: "Little Baibai has been thinking about a hero who has stepped on colorful auspicious clouds to save her when she is in danger......

"Grandpa!" Elizabeth interrupted old Charles.

Old Charles smiled and stopped talking, and then led Xiao Ru to a secret room where private conversations were held.

After casting a few spells to isolate the sound, the expression on Old Charles's face became solemn.

"The first machine tool in the Kingdom of Rurik was successfully produced. Old Charles's first words almost made Xiao Ru jump.

Charles Sr. continued: "With your wind turbine as a reliable power, they built their first machine last month with their technical reserves. ”

Xiao Ru's breathing suddenly became heavy, which meant the beginning of a new era.

Old Charles continued: "Little Nikolai has decided that from now on all your achievements will be vested in the name of Alexei, the crown prince of the Rurik Kingdom. ”

Xiao Ru was stunned for a moment, and then spit out a word with difficulty in his mouth: "Papermaking?"

The papermaking technique he was talking about was not the kind of papermaking that made toilet paper, but the kind that made paper that could be used to make books. For thousands of years, the emergence of papermaking has always been short-lived because of the severance of inheritance.

Old Charles nodded, "Looks like you've noticed this too, and now your wind turbines are doing more than papermaking." ”

As soon as Xiao Ru wanted to speak, old Charles stretched out his hand to stop him.

Charles Sr. said, "I'll tell you a piece of history first. ”

He took out a flask from his waist, opened the lid and poured two sips, and for a moment the secret room was filled with the aroma of wine.

Then he said: "I grew up watching Catherine, she was only three months old when I first met her, and she urinated on her when I first hugged her. Nana was very smart and a quick learner, and later she became my apprentice. ”

The corners of Xiao Ru's neck twitched, it turned out that the empress's ancestor was actually ...... He'll bury it in his heart. Moreover, it was the first time he had heard that the empress's ancestor was the old man's apprentice.

Old Charles continued: "We elves and you humans have different concepts of time, and in the blink of an eye, Nana has grown up, and Vivi has also become an adult, and it wasn't long before they came to Greentown with Philip. ”

Xiao Yu once again lamented that the elves are a peace-loving race, and the old ancestor even arched the old man's two cabbages and was not killed by the old man.

Old Charles leaned back on the sofa, looked at the magic lamp that glowed softly from the ceiling, and said, "I still remember that day, Philip came to me for a secret talk. We had a fight during the conversation, during which I almost beat him to death. I was persuaded by him, but I also made my offer. ”

"I have limited support for what he is going to do, because I am the king of the elves and I must be responsible for my people. I stepped down under the pretext of being overthrown by my daughter, and if Vivi caused a crisis to the elves in carrying out Philip's policies, I would correct the mistake in the form of restoration. ”

"Of course, if I make sure I have a granddaughter, otherwise the royal family will be even more disastrous because of this. ”

"As you saw later, VV was clearly doing a good job. ”

At this time, old Charles was sitting up, his eyes looking directly at Xiao Ru, "I can give up my throne for that goal." ”

Xiao Ru felt a burst of coercion coming straight to him, and he hurriedly opened it and carried it hard.

The elder Charles continued: "Alexei could give up his life for that goal. ”

Xiao Ru asked, "What is that goal?"

The elder Charles did not answer directly, but continued: "Nine years ago, Vivi's mother did a divination, and no one thought that the price of that divination would be her life. ”

Then old Charles was silent for a long time, and then he said, "The eagle quenched out of the fire, and finally swept away the gloom." ”

"Loved ones from afar guide the way forward. ”

"Homecoming ......"

Xiao Ru waited for a long time and didn't have a follow-up, old Charles sighed, and then said in a sad tone: "She died before she finished speaking." ”

The atmosphere in the chamber suddenly became mournful.

After a long time, old Charles said: "This prophecy is known only to me and little Nicholas. Later, something happened to your family, and after a long discussion with little Nikolai, and after a period of observation, I found that you are most like the person who came out of the prophecy. ”

"So, keeping you safe is our top priority. ”

"Based on past experience, Alexei can buy you ten years. ”

Xiao Ru felt that there was a 10,000-pound boulder on his chest at this time, which made him breathless.

At first, he planted the seeds of change in this world with a game mentality, but he didn't expect that in the end, someone else would suffer for him.

Xiao Ru pointed directly into the eyes of old Charles, pointed to the sky, and asked in a deep voice, "Is our goal ......?"

Old Charles just whispered, "This world is supposed to be a refuge, not a pasture." ”

Then he said to Xiao Ru, who was panting: "Don't take this matter too seriously, there is a divination that Alexei should have died last year, and now his life is to live one day at a time." ”

"There are some things that even if you don't do, someone else will do. It's just that they don't have as many resources as you to avoid disasters and carry out their ideas. ”

At this time, Xiaoru grabbed his pants tightly with both hands, and his joints were white because of the force.

Old Charles poured himself two more sips of wine, "Your Macros company can continue to do it, Alexei outside will help you attract firepower, in our territory, it is difficult for some people's hands to get in, so you can buy a lot of time." Don't tell those two girls about this, we just need to know for ourselves. ”

Xiao Ru took a deep breath and calmed his mood as much as possible.

"What can I do?" he asked.

"Do what you can do on your own. "This is not something that can be done in a day or two, we have been in a difficult situation for more than three hundred years, even if we live as long as me and Vivi, we are ready not to see victory in our lifetime." ”

"But as soon as we take the first step, we will continue to pass on the torch, and the day will come. ”

Xiao Ru felt the weight of 10,000 catties on his body, he had already seen that the world was sick, and now he saw that many people with lofty ideals were working hard to treat the world.

Gradually, his breathing and expression began to calm down, and his hands were released.

He silently recited in his mind several times, "Profit from the Society, Death and Life," and then said to old Charles: "I know what to do." ”
