Chapter 54: The Soul Contract

(This chapter is free)

More than ten days have passed, and there are more human reinforcements, but the war is still going on without pain. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The nobles with private soldiers, all the military food and equipment were provided by themselves, and they waited for nothing, and the food and coins were wasted in vain.

Most of them fought in the wishful thinking of the elite Divine Blessing Legion following behind the enemy army to reap the credit, and they were afraid that it would not be too early at the beginning.

As a result, many people gradually began to complain.

But whoever ran to ask the commander-in-chief, Commander William Harris, received a fluttering reply: "We are waiting for reinforcements from Her Royal Highness the Princess." ā€

The news is still too closed, it turns out that Her Royal Highness the princess also takes a fancy to this credit?

Then even if she came here just for an armed parade, the first credit must go to her.

When the empire was founded, it set an iron law that no high-ranking provincial or central officials could be appointed without military merits, no military positions above the brigade and regimental level, and no titles above the viscount level.

So since they want military merits, most of these nobles who belong to the imperial party can only wait for Her Royal Highness the princess to eat some leftovers.

The nobles were all successfully sent back and continued to wait.

They didn't wait long.

On the thirty-first day of the siege, the 30,000 reinforcements of Her Royal Highness the Princess finally arrived.

A thousand of them were elite royal knights wrapped in heavy armor of full-body magic, armed even to the teeth.

The knights were attached to the Royal Praetorian Guard.

Every knight is carefully selected from all families and legions across the country, and at least they have the strength at the top of the elite rank.

The knights' magical armor adorns the royal coat of arms, a silver-white condor adorned with ears of rice and roses. Each part of these silver-glittering full-body heavy armor was from the Imperial Alchemy Equipment Department, and the value of any one of these armors was more than the total income of an ordinary knight in five years.

And that's in addition to the knights' crotch colours, all of which are pure white, and the enchanted weapons they are equipped with, which are mixed with an enchanted lance made of Mithril, an enchanted bow, an enchanted sword, and an enchanted shield that also bears the Condor emblem.

Her Royal Highness the princess herself, wearing the royal secret treasure "Holy Armor" and wearing the "Holy Sword" at her waist, rode a horse at the forefront of the procession.

The flag was unfurled, the sun was shining, and Her Royal Highness the beautiful princess had silver hair flashing and heroic. Surrounded by glittering silver knights, it is like a goddess descending into the world.

The nobles and soldiers who lined up to greet them were all stunned.

Jane followed not far away with her few guards, and when she saw this, she smiled at Helen, who was already a pair of starry eyes, and said, "Maybe soon." The Royal Praetorian Guard will be restored to its glory under the leadership of Her Royal Highness the Princess. ā€

The priest Helen just looked at her idol, and didn't even have time to answer, only blushing and nodding like a chicken pecking rice.

Although the Royal Praetorian Guard was squeezed out of the four major legions of the empire by the Hydra army twenty years ago, it still sits firmly on the fifth throne of the empire. If Her Royal Highness the princess grows normally, then it is only natural that this legion will regain its glory.

But there were people in the greeting team who clearly didn't think so.

A corner of the greeting procession. Although they were also intimidated by the princess's majesty and military appearance, some nobles were not so respectful, and deliberately exchanged heads and whispered and laughed there.

The nobles there are all sent by Prince Theo, and there are quite a few of them, and they can faintly compete with the royal party.

A silver-haired young man stood at the forefront, just staring at the team of Her Royal Highness the princess and frowning silently.

Half a step behind him, stood Anna, the princess in red armor.

She bit her lip as if she were slashing slightly. Suddenly, he said, "This time, I will be ashamed."

――――――――――――――――――――――――

God bless the city.

A few days ago, Yeyue had already disguised herself a little and returned to the Burgess Mansion that she had bought in a hurry last time.

Although I bought the house last time as an imperial viscount, a court mage, and a fifth-class priest of the Holy See, I didn't show my identity when I bought it myself. Second, the occupying forces have basically no offense against the residents of the city, so it is safe to live here.

Carl, the old butler, made good use of the money left by the night moon, and now this five-story Gothic spire building has completely lost its dilapidated appearance in the past, and is already an out-and-out mansion.

Information has been coming in through the ghost scouts in a steady stream these days.

"Is that so? It is no wonder that these nocturnal believers do not attack the populace. It seems that even if he swaggers to reveal the identity of the priest, he will be gently let go. ā€

Reading Mary's secret letter, the King of the Dead frowned, and many doubts were resolved.

"In the City of God Blessed, the royal family, princes, nobles, and the Holy See all have secret intelligence bases, and this can also be used."

As she was muttering, Lilou suddenly walked through the wall. "Queen, the latest news, the human army is ready to attack the city. ā€

"Very well, you go and prepare. Always ready to go and get back what is our own. ā€

"Yes."

At this time, Yeyue noticed the small green light hiding in the corner of the room.

She smiled and asked, "Your Highness Green, have you found it again?" ā€

"Hmm...... I don't need to use any spirit summoning techniques to show your magic power, the magic fluctuations on your body right now are too unique and powerful, and I am an expert in this area. As long as there's a trace of magic that isn't shielded well, I can find it wherever you're hiding......"

After saying that, her light flashed again, and her little face looked tangled, as if she was doing something fierce ideological struggle.

Every time Midori appears, his momentum will be weakened by a point, and he has already been trained by Yeyue to lose his temper.

In particular, the last time they appeared, several mages who attracted the "Night God Believers" caused Night Moon to almost fight with the Divine Blessing Occupation Army in advance.

Fortunately, the "Night God Believers" have been very busy recently, and it is estimated that she has been judged to be a natural spirit who accidentally passes by or is attracted by the Night God statue, and the hidden strength of the ghosts is strong, so they can avoid a battle with a huge disparity between friends and enemies.

Midori, who consciously did something wrong, has dropped to the bottom this time, because she has a history of being discovered by the enemy, and when she appeared this time, she also specially shielded her magic fluctuations, and the undead lord who lost all her magic power almost didn't notice her.

She seemed to hesitate, and suddenly said thoughtlessly, "...... I promise you. ā€

"Promise what?"

The dark wizard had long forgotten what he had said when he teased the elf in the dungeon, and he didn't even react for a moment.

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ It's ridiculous that I've struggled with it for so long. So you didn't take it seriously at all? ā€

Midori's momentum weakened a little and laughed at himself.

She floated a little higher, bowed deeply, and said, "I, the nature elf, Midori, hereby apply to make a soul contract with you, Miss Nightmoon, with you as the main body. ā€

The transcendental level of natural elves took the initiative to send them to the door several times, and this time they had to sign a soul contract, and they came up to send charcoal in the snow at the juncture when their strength was completely lost, and the Queen of the Undead naturally did not hesitate, but finally confirmed once: "Your Highness Green, don't you regret it?" ā€

"Never go back." (To be continued.) )
