Just as Arthas tried to stop Alfonso's actions, King Terenus took the first step to hold him down on the shoulder. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Arthas looked back in surprise, only to find his father shaking his head at himself.

Father doesn't want to get himself involved in this?—Arthas thought puzzled—but why is Father so confident in Lord Alfonso's actions? Do they think that the Red Dragon Queen will not be provoked, and even if not, what kind of compensation will they get?

"Reparations, what reparations?" the Red Dragon Queen tore off the small bunch of grapes, greedily stuffed it into her mouth, and chewed it in large gulps, and the crystal juice with a reddish color overflowed from her mouth, dripping onto her clothes, and soaking into small lumps of water.

The Red Dragon Queen threw the bare vine in her hand to the ground very rudely, and then wiped her hands casually on her clothes, looking at Alfonso with a curious expression.

"Yes, Your Excellency. Based on the situation described by His Royal Highness the Prince of Arthas and you, we know that your people, because your safety is threatened, have been forced to obey the orders of the orcs and launch an attack on the humans, am I right?" Alfonso put his hands in front of him in his long sleeves, a smile on his face.

"Yes...... Yes, but those children are not intentional, they are only because they are ...... It's just that Tahran is being used, and it's ...... And I've already helped you fight the orcs to make amends!" a nervous look appeared on the Red Dragon Queen's face, as she seemed to understand what Alfonso was trying to say.

"That's true, Your Excellency the Queen, but ......," Alfonso's voice dragged on in a long tone, as everyone knew, "but" the words after that were what the Chancellor of the Exchequer really wanted to say.

"I know that Her Excellency played a key role in the defense of Fort Riptide, but I think this is just your personal behavior, Your Excellency, and I don't think that alone will make up for the mistakes of your people, will it?" Alfonso continued.

"For ...... Why not? I've killed a lot of orcs! and...... And without me, you'd have lost that war!" the Red Dragon Queen's face flushed, arguing with reason.

Of course, it would be unrealistic to expect the Red Dragon Queen to figure out for herself how much of a role she had played in the war between humans and orcs.

What really made Her Excellency understand her important role was that during the time of Riptide Castle, many nobles, including King Terenus and King Solas, had heard the compliments hundreds of times, and even those as stupid as the Red Dragon Queen knew her role.

"It is true, but I must warn ......you, Your Excellency, the Queen," Alfonso clearly had the absolute preponderance in such a debate, his tone elegant, interspersed with many beautiful sentences, and clearly prepared in advance.

"Without the participation of the Red Dragon, the Orc Legion is no match for the Human Alliance, our navy has absolute superiority, and if it were not for the total annihilation of the naval fleet in the Balatine Bay, the war would not have spread to the north at all - Your Excellency, do you know what I mean?" Alfonso's smile was hidden, and he pressed on the Red Dragon Queen step by step.

"I ...... I don't quite understand...... "The Red Dragon Queen was not very good at this kind of thing, and she looked at Arthas as if she were pleading, but the latter pretended not to see her gaze.

"I ...... I have a covenant with Arthas, and I will help you defeat the orcs, and you will not hold my children accountable...... We've got it done beforehand!" the Red Dragon Queen stammered.

"That's true...... Alfonso replied with a smile, "but Your Excellency the Queen wishes you that I have no intention of overturning the covenant between His Royal Highness the Prince of Arthas and you, but I am not saying that I want to hold your people at fault. ”

"But, you say...... Compensate ......" The Red Dragon Queen couldn't keep up with Alfonso's train of thought at all, and she felt her head dizzy.

"It stands to reason that the Red Dragon's undeclared war on humanity has caused us great losses and troubles, but because we are now allies, we have decided not to hold your people at fault, but that doesn't mean we'll give up our claim for compensation. Alfonso's words were very awkward.

"Your Excellency, as far as I know, your people are supposed to take on the duty of guarding this world, and instead of banishing these beasts from another world, you, the guardians of the world, have sided with them, and although your subsequent actions may make up for the mistakes of your people before this, it is only a little, am I right?" Alfonso said to himself when he saw that the Red Dragon Queen did not speak.

"I ...... I do not quite understand...... You...... What exactly do you want me to compensate you?" asked the Red Dragon Queen, confused.

"It is your people who compensate us, Your Excellency, and it is not your personal business. Alfonso kindly reminded him, then walked over to his desk and let go of a stack of books that seemed to have been prepared.

"Let's calculate how much damage the Red Dragon's actions have caused to humanity, Your Excellency Queen. Alfonso deftly let go of the ledger and said loudly.

"First of all, the first time the Red Dragons attacked humanity was in the Gulf of Palatine, and King Dalin's fleet was almost completely annihilated. The above coalition fleets have a total of ...... There are detailed numbers, a total of one hundred and seventy-six warships, fifty-four small boats were reduced to ashes in that naval battle, and sixty-eight seamen were killed and countless others were wounded. Alfonso finished reading it, and picked it up vertically, and nodded at the Red Dragon Queen, indicating that there was a detailed record in her account book.

"This ...... What does that mean?" the Red Dragon Queen asked as she stammered after just glancing at the ledger - while she had enough eyesight to read the words and numbers in the ledger, she didn't have the intellect to make sense of them.

"To put it simply, we started settling the first account between the red dragon and the human. Alfonso put the account book back on his desk and said to the Red Dragon Queen with a smile, "The cost of two hundred and thirty ships of all sizes is high, and after deducting the value of the loss, plus the bereavement of the sixty-eight fallen warriors and the rest of the expenses, I and my students, subordinates, and some servants have calculated it for a day and a night, and we have valued it at ......."
