You have acquired the special ability "Apostle" at a very heavy cost.

At the same time, you're missing four fingers.

Although they disappeared almost at the same time, there was actually a very slight but insequential difference: the left tail finger was Annette, which was not surprising, and there seemed to be no other more important thing in her blank life except for you, and the right tail finger was Melanie, well, it seems acceptable, she used to be the husband of Edward, and the former master of the high-ranking vampire who bit her, but now she not only serves you as the Lord but also thanks to you as a Daywalker.

The left ring finger is Julianne, what the hell is this? You don't even have much contact with her.

The ring finger of the right hand is the most surprising...... Front row instructors. You don't remember her name, and she offered her full loyalty?

"What's wrong with your fingers, grow!"

Annette suddenly knelt on the ground and clasped your hands, panicked, and immediately stood up and ran out the door: "I'll go get Leia back!" and was stopped by you.

To be honest, the divine power obtained is not very strong, but the curse is too ruthless. It would have been nice to hand over all four of the bones to the chef......

You tell Annette that you are in pain all over your body, but you estimate that healing spells cannot cure it, which is the punishment of blasphemy for mortals. You're already tired today, and it's time to rest, alone.

Then you curl up in bed and fall asleep, perhaps...... Who knows.

In the dream,

Someone keeps saying to you:

"The Chosen One...... find a way to stop ......! Only you can stop this catastrophe...... Don't forget your mission......" Then you see the unicorn in your dream again, and it shakes its head at you repeatedly, still seems deeply disappointed in how you have grown up.

Don't leave!

Tell me!

What is my mission!

Shouting so loudly, you wake up sweating profusely. Sitting up, she frightened Annette, who had been lying on the side of the bed all night, and she immediately grabbed the dagger and picked up the staff and looked around. After making sure that there was no one around, I started to worry about whether you were poisoned by the Divine Fluid liquid.

Then, the other girls rush into your room in embarrassment while getting dressed, thinking that something is wrong.

The sky was just dawning.

"What's wrong with your fingers!" Hathaway grabbed your wrist sharply, "How do you have a cut that looks like an old wound from many years ago?

Because of the Divine Remains Liquid, it really is not something that humans should drink. But you're feeling good this morning.

Soon after going downstairs for breakfast, the council sent more than twenty people to the hotel to find you directly and saluted you respectfully: "Honorable viscount, we are the staff of the council hall of the royal city, and we have been ordered to welcome you into the royal city in time. In terms of scheduling, His Majesty will not be available to meet you until after ten o'clock, and you need to keep some etiquette and points in mind during this time, if you don't want to move your head. ”

They stripped you of your mage's robes, and put on the usual gowns of the nobles like clowns, and the shoulder armor was retained at your insistence, and there were not a few who wore armor to meet His Majesty, and you were not the only one, but they took the staff and threw it to Annette.

The napkin is tied around your neck, and there is a satin flower on the upper of your shoes that no woman can use, and the waist and buttocks are tightly tucked in, which is said to force you to wear it and keep your entire body in a straight and straight position, which looks very energetic...... The problem is that you can't squat at all. There is nothing wrong with the leg script, but you have to give you a cane, or the mahogany-clad steel can kill people. The most ridiculous thing is that you have a green hat on your head, and three white feathers can blow you away when the wind blows.

The four girls were all laughing: "Very handsome, very handsome...... Poof. ”

Hathaway and Annette followed you into the luxurious carriage, and in front of them were pulled by four black horses with their heads upright, which seemed to be very magnificent. But the two daughters ended up staying in front of the final drawbridge with the carriage. After this moat, you are the only one allowed to enter, and they can only wait here.

The castle is canceled today from invisibility, and the glorious and magnificent man-made miracle towers into the sky, looking close to more than thirty floors, as if it will be fine even if the whole world is destroyed.

You walked behind the six guards who were looking at the thirteenth level, walked behind the four beautiful maids, and walked into the castle,

walked on the gold silk red carpet,

Walking in the corridor lit with hundreds of candles in broad daylight, walking in the passage of more than 20 years of sustainable lights, walking in the corridor pavilion with butterflies dancing in groups, walking in the castle bridge with crystal roof, and the wind blowing with complex flavors on the side.

At the end of the elevator of unknown principle, there is a solemn door, and the guards rumble through tons of cold iron, and the meeting hall is like another world—wide, bright, warm, and at the same time terrifying, the only master of this world is sitting on a throne in the distance in front of him, with one hand on his cheek, staring coldly at you. This man is the one who holds the power of life and death.

His Majesty the entire kingdom, the ultimate holder of power.

In accordance with the etiquette that the Council Chamber had told you before, you put one hand on your chest, your head slightly bowed, and slowly but long tried to approach His Majesty, erecting the very inconspicuous horizontal line on the gleaming golden floor under your feet, and from the moment you entered the door, you need to stop at the position of the ninth square—there is a suspicion of intending to assassinate you in the future, and you cannot hear His Majesty's noble voice in the future.

Kneeling on one knee, you bow your head and loudly declare that you are the fourth president of the Adventurers' Guild of Five Alleys Bay, blessed with holy grace, Viscount Rongsheng, and come to thank you.

"Your Majesty will allow you to raise your head. A female voice came to mind from His Majesty's side.

You raise your head and look your majesty squarely.

Looks like he is in his fifties, and his appearance and temperament are very domineering. From your side, on the left, is the head of the paladin who once saw at the gate of the black street, on the right, is the wife of the uncle who once saw at the gate of the black street, the one who did not go in to fight, and in the center, the one who once led you into the black street......

......

......

......

Well?

Why is the uncle wearing a crown on his head and pretending to be a king here?

With a few coughs, the king glared at you with great displeasure. You quickly swallow the words you were about to blurt out back into your stomach. However, this king is also too similar to yesterday's uncle!

You're feeling a little confused.

The king squinted, stared at your hand, and asked indifferently, "What's the matter with your hand? It doesn't seem to be disabled yesterday, do you?" Do you need me to call you a priest?"

You repeatedly said that your fingers didn't matter, thinking that even a mere mage wouldn't be able to cure it anyway.

After that, for ten minutes, you expressed your gratitude to Your Majesty and your determination to swear allegiance to the Kingdom, and by the way, you gave a report on the work of your President. The king didn't seem interested, but nodded perfunctorily.

Suddenly, the head of the paladin next to him lowered his voice and reminded His Majesty, "...... Your Majesty, forced marriage. ”

"Huh?"

“...... It's time to force marriage. ”

"Hmm. ”

His Majesty sat up straight for the first time, but immediately changed to his hands on his cheeks, stared at you, and said, "I am actually quite busy, I don't have time to listen to everyone talk this nonsense, if everyone who shouts the slogan of allegiance can make me worry, the kingdom would have conquered the world long ago." Let's be practical, you've just risen to the rank of noble, and maybe you don't have the ability to hear the subtext, so I just said it - do you know whose territory you are?"

Your Majesty's?

"It's the old marquis's. His Majesty sighed, "The priests said that the old man's health had suddenly deteriorated, and he was afraid that he would pass away in a few days, and that his granddaughter had long passed the marriageable age but had always been too discerning. Now she's taken a fancy to you, and she's mentioned it to me, so I've come over and ask what you mean. ”

...... You are silent.

His Majesty leaned into the depths of the throne in disappointment.

Next to him, as you later learned that it was the queen, said to you: "Your Majesty means that the old marquis's family has been loyal for generations, and all the members of his family are trustworthy, far more so that Your Majesty can sleep peacefully than the new nobles who have a bright future but are of mixed race." ”

You are half of the Sand blood, you are a new nobleman, as long as you marry Ah no, marry Lady Sylvana and you can win the minimum trust of Your Majesty. There seems to be nothing wrong with this logic, and it is said that nobles often marry each other in this way, binding each other and cooperating with each other to vouch for each other. Unlike some countries in the Far East, the kingdom is highly centralized, in fact, the great lords everywhere have the ability to raise troops to rebel at any time, such a ruling system is not because the monarch is incompetent, but mainly because this large area is deeply influenced by the idea that everyone is equal under the gods, even bowing to the king is on one knee - which means that I am only half a cut lower than you, and this posture can fight back at any time!

You've been forced into marriage.

Although it is not necessary to get married immediately, it needs to be expressed immediately. But...... You didn't say it right away, no. It's not that you're negligent in etiquette, it's that you really don't know how to answer for a while.

Call...... The queen let out a long sigh, and after receiving a nod of acquiescence from Her Majesty, she continued: "A man without a family has an unstable mind. "The subtext is that you can change jobs to Saudi Arabia at any time, especially if you have such a secretary," However, Your Majesty also knows that Sylvana has been dragging on for many years, and now that she is in her thirties, she has passed the best marriageable age, and having children may be a problem. It's actually very obvious what the preferences of young men and promising men are, either marrying a goblin who is charming and willing to be brushed by her, or they are single and don't understand why they want to get married if it's good now. ”

"Because you are responsible for the whole kingdom. ”

"Your Majesty is not saying that you must marry Sylvana, just to give an example, I just hope that you can start a family and stabilize as soon as possible. "Especially under the premise that the Sand Kingdom is likely to start a war," others, such as the patriarch of the emerging power who enjoys the kingdom's policy of friendly relations with the Asians, such as the princess of the powerful underwater kingdom who controls the vast desert sea, for example, the eldest lady of the viscount family who has always enjoyed a high reputation among the nobles of the kingdom for many years, like you, are all good choices. ”

Too targeted "such as".

silent

silent

Or silence.

The head of the paladin asked the guards to hand the transfer order in front of you: "The son of the old marquis has specially applied to His Majesty a few days ago to transfer you, although I didn't say that you have any merits, but the matter is very important, please think clearly, and then report to me." You can step down. Come, send the elder to a quiet place, and think carefully about what your future holds. ”

Two guards gently lift you to your feet and lead the way.

You leave the Audience Room, and soon you are standing on the balcony of the castle, holding the stone wall in your hand, looking down at the bustling ...... of the royal city that can be enclosed with both hands Although there are only six fingers left.

You look at the appointment book.

It was about the same as expected.

A, the hinterland of the warlords' civil war in the West, a military castle town called "Wisteria Ghost Ridge". There was no governing body other than an army that did not follow orders. It's already very close to the Sand Country, only separated by a Skyrim Mountain Range, and the undead are frequent. It is famous for its purple vine, which attacks people but can be used as a medicinal herb.

B, the gnoll-infested border in the northwest, a trading town called the "Hawkeye Oasis". There is no other governing body than a less legitimate market. It is already very close to the Sand country, only two or three small inland projectile countries are separated, dry and short of water. It is famous for a magical tower that is 140 meters tall for observation purposes.

C, an isolated island town in the southwest sea called the Altar Mouth, where there is no other governing body other than the unruly temple. It is adjacent to Wuxiang Bay and a port city in Saudi Arabia, and the circulation of materials is inconvenient. It is famous for the sacrificial dry well of the "Giant Mouth God Cult" cult that went up and down hundreds of years ago.

A gust of wind blows away the decree in your hand,

Inexplicably, he flew back again, and was caught by His Majesty, who walked to his side at some point, and handed it back to you. He laughed, "I hope you didn't throw it away on purpose." ”

"When I was younger, I had two older brothers waiting to succeed to the throne, and there was a fierce fight. So I fled incognito as an adventurer, and met the current head of the Paladin "Elander", Pope "Earl", the boss of the dark streets "Saint Sicilang", and the Duke of Destruction "Swane", the four of them back then...... No, none of us five shit are. If I have to trust only one person in this world, it's my wife, and if I can expand to five people, it's them. They would never have betrayed me, or I wouldn't have lived to this day. Now there's one more. ”

"To be honest, I'm annoyed with this throne and don't want to care. ”

"I have no heirs, and I don't care what will happen to this kingdom when I die. Probably one of Elander and Swane took over - the former was a responsible captain with a strong sense of justice, and anti-slavery and anti-Asian racism were his ideas, but I didn't care. The latter was born in a noble family and is the only duke in the kingdom, although he is not suitable for sitting on the throne as me, but if he does sit on it, there will naturally be three other people to help him, just like me. There's really no way one can cover the throne with heat. ”

"Loyalty, in my opinion, means that the morale of the whole team has completely collapsed, and there are still people who desperately drag them away, and even sacrifice themselves to block you who have passed out, even if he has already been frightened. The Ylanders who always looked down on me, the Earl who always tricked me, the Saint Sicilang who always tried to manipulate me, and the Swanai who always beat me when he had nothing to do, they were all people who were absolutely loyal to me. ”

"The first president of your family used to be my junior, but he was more talented than us, but he was unlucky, and his companions were all following in his footsteps, while the five of us went hand in hand. He's got a fight with Swana. Maybe you think he died in a political frame-up, I think he died outnumbered. ”

"Adventurers are necessary, but the mortality rate of adventurers is too high and needs guild support. Maybe what I'm going to say below is a bit extreme, but if you have lived in the kingdom for more than 50 years, maybe you will be able to figure it out one day - the king is not necessary, just change the crown and wear it, the people are not necessary, hundreds of people die, and in a few days they will inexplicably move more from other settlements, love is not necessary, women are selfish, men are cruel, children are not necessary, even if you can keep your soul after death, your consciousness is quite blurred and confused, life is not necessary, otherwise what are the lich we killed beforeClowns. When an ancient red dragon destroys a city, when a group of demons burns down a grassland, when a vast army of necromancy turns day into night, adventurers alone are necessary. But those little cubs of yours are still far from it. ”

You asked about the Swanena bastard.

His Majesty smiled: "He's an out-and-out bastard lunatic, but he's saved me countless times." He has never changed and never will be. To you, indeed, madman, but to me, he will always be my companion. Speaking of him...... You can't have your fingers broken by him, can you? Anyway, I was trying to play you on a whim yesterday, only to find out that you weren't a rigid guy, and you were even quite funny. Count me in on what I owe you......"

"If you have to refuse a political marriage, I won't have a hard time for you, but I really can't control Elander. He's my captain. ”

His Majesty looked farther away than the prosperity of the royal city, and showed a good expression.

What are you going to do?

1. Marry Ms. Sylvana

2. Marry Fiertin

3. Marry a mermaid princess

4, marry Miss Jenna

5, you will use the actual action of marrying other local women, let me give an explanation to the head of the Elander group

6. No one will marry
