"It's not negotiable." Vanessa raised her head, "Brant must become Lord of Neverwinter, and besides, his presence is far less of a threat to you than to his brother Creon. The princess used her talent for persuasion and squinted at Terrence, "Think about it, Brant, who is separated from you by more than half the world, even if he stands on the tower of Neverwinter with a casserole on his head and dances, he will not threaten your rule; Instead, he'll help you keep an eye on Creon's every move, reporting us on the small flocks of mercenaries on the border, the unusual currents in the Catbite Strait, and the strange ice and iron sand drifting from Bone Bay. Vanessa leaned closer to Terrence, "He's an obedient puppet, it's up to you how you use it." "Brant, you must forgive me for destroying you like this, I did this to save your life.
"But he's still your spy." Terrence said unhurriedly, in a freak tone, "He loves you, not me." โ
Vanessa straightened up and stared coldly at the Flame King, "I'm sure your spies aren't always as incompetent as you think, and they'll always be able to intercept Brandt's words." โ
"In that case, you can consider it." Terrence nodded thoughtfully, "As long as he promises to never see you again." โ
"Don't go too far!" Archmage Mies's eyes flashed with lightning, clenching his fists menacingly.
"Wake up the two of you," Terrence smirked, shaking the magic bag in his hand, "to make Vanessa recognize their family." That's called excess. โ
"Rog? Yahengli. Vanessa ignored Terrence's threat, "I want my Selangor to protect me." โ
"When we get married, you'll be under the protection of my royal guards, and you won't need to do anything more." Terrence spoke in a tough, unquestionable tone.
"I insist." Vanessa replied equally forcefully, and her eyes were blazing, unflinching.
The corners of Terrence's mouth twitched unnaturally, and it was clear that it touched his bottom line.
"They're only responsible for keeping me safe." Vanessa decided to take it one step at a time*, "Protect me from harmโespecially from you." โ
Terrence's eyes jumped. Sure enough, he had a purpose for me. Vanessa was glad that she had seen through his plot in time.
"They can't use magic." Terrence proposes counter-constraints.
"Deal." Vanessa raised an eyebrow. For a moment, the princess seemed to see a flash of chagrin in Terrence's eyes, it seemed that her choice was right, and her own Xue Lanwei could have a huge deterrent effect on him even if he didn't use magic.
"Well, then, please let me be absent for a moment." The Flame King grinned again, "While your good knights are sober, I'd better not appear in front of them." I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble for our engagement. โ
Vanessa rolled her eyes, "Haven't you caused enough trouble?" Terrence was just about to leave when the princess suddenly stopped him, "Wait," she walked over and undid the chains from Corman's hand, "and take him out of Winterfell." โ
"Your Highness the Princess!" Meese couldn't help but shout.
"He's always been my brother!" Vanessa interrupted Meate's persuasion and turned back to Corman and whispered, "Look at Terrence." If you can't get your parents back, use magic to restrain him and don't let him hurt anyone. โ
Coman looked at his sister, nodded, and then turned and hugged her. He thought he was going to die, but by chance, the appearance of Terrence gave his life a turning point, and of course, there was a new goal, and I believe he would grasp it well.
