After all, there is no love and hate for no reason in the world, and in the end, there is only an entanglement of interests that you can't see through.

There are three reasons why Oss is currently able to touch the interests of others and attract hostility. The first is that he has just been promoted to the position of the Great Auxiliary Priest and supervised the ascetic hall. This factor is actually unlikely, even if he gives himself the title of "the youngest great acoctor", in fact, it will have an impact on the clergy of Ilan County at most, and the influence is extremely limited. It is clear that Frank is only a nobleman, and the coat of arms on his chest is a silver wolf's head, and there is only one family in the Holy Empire that uses the silver wolf as his family crest, and that is the Galliani family, one of the famous "Twelve Golden Families of the Empire". The second is that he is already a descendant of Emmed in the eyes of others, and Frank is in a force hostile to Emmed, so he has a hatred for himself, this factor seems to be the most likely on the surface, but if you think about it carefully, there are still some doubts. The last one that can be thought of is the conflict of interests of the gods, but whether it is this possibility or not, and what the specific truth is, Oss does not know, and the information he can currently have is too little.

"It's already gone, Oss Daisui. A soft female voice rang out beside Os.

Thinking too fascinated, I didn't expect people to mistakenly think that he was still staring at Kester's back, Oss hurriedly retracted his thoughts, looked sideways, but saw a tall and beautiful beauty.

"Miss Paran, it's you. Is there something going on?" Oss did not deny or admit it, but simply diverted the subject. "Just call me Oss, you and Elena are like sisters, and in my eyes, Elena is my sister, so Miss Paran doesn't have to be so angry. ”

Paran and Elena did have a very close relationship, and it was noticeably happier to hear Oss mention Elena. "It was Elena who told me to keep an eye on you at the dinner, and she told me not to let someone's soul be taken away by Kester's vixen. She laughed first.

In fact, Os's vision is very high, the ladies he talked to before are very plump and attractive, but there is only plumpness left, feasting his eyes, and although Kester is also very beautiful, with natural charm, but Oss can see at a glance that Kester is actually just a beautiful courtesan carefully cultivated by his family, she values the power and wealth of men, such a vase-like girl, Oss also has little interest. Paran is a very beautiful girl, and her smile at the moment is even more touching, and her temperament is also very attractive. Of course, Oss just thinks that Paran is a very good girl, and he has nothing to do at the moment, and if he has to choose a guest to spend the rest of the dinner, Miss Parland is undoubtedly a suitable choice.

A maid happened to pass by the two with a tray, and Oss reached for two glasses of wine and handed one to Paran, who was beside him.

"Elena, a mischievous wretch, is always messing around with me outside. Actually, Kester to me was just a childhood admiration, and a little boy would experience it. When we grow up, we always feel that our ideas when we were young are very naïve, and this is probably a similar situation. Miss Paran, if you don't mind, let's sit down and talk. Oss gestured to the two separate seats not far away.

Paran glanced at Oss with interest before following him, and after taking her seat, she was the first to speak, "Elena is right, you have changed a lot. ”

Oss took a sip of the wine, feeling the silky feel of it running down his throat.

"People always change, sooner or later. I have experienced life and death, and if I am still so stupid, it is not to live up to the good intentions of the god of light. Miss Paran, don't just stare at me, the wine is good, you can try it. Oss tilted his glass, touched the glass that Paran had placed next to him, and continued, "Just like Miss Paran, you have changed a lot today, and you didn't have this attitude towards me before. ”

Hearing this, Paran elegantly picked up his wine glass and took a shallow sip, his neck raised like a fine porcelain glowing with white porcelain.

"Ten years old Morgan red wine, Viscount Fernando can be regarded as generous tonight. As for me, I saw that you had become the High Auxiliary Priest and that I had the trust of High Priest Emerd, so I hurried over to you, I am very powerful. ”

After saying that, Paran tilted her head and looked at Oss with beautiful eyes, very playful, as if the person she was talking about was not herself.

"Miss Paran is a joker, your father is a viscount, and he is in charge of the defense of Gothic City, and that is the real big man. But... Auston paused, suddenly looked Paland in the eye, and continued. "Miss Paran better stop going around in circles, just ask, what do I need to pay to make you tell the truth I want, that's the real purpose of you sitting next to me tonight, right?"

At this moment, Oss was still calm and light, and his expression was still the same as that of the big boy next door, but his words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Paran's heart. The atmosphere was a little stagnant, but Oss was not worried, drinking red wine and occasionally eating something from his plate.

"I need you to be my fiancé. ”

Paran struggled for a long time before he said with a blushing face. But after seeing Oss's incredulous expression, he added. "Not now, oops, not necessarily in the future, just need... The two of us just make a gesture and come out. ”

Oss was originally stunned by Palan's first words, stupid and stupid on the spot, and waited for Palan to finish speaking, he was temporarily relieved, and then suddenly remembered that he still had a mouthful of red wine in his mouth and didn't have time to swallow it, and in a hurry, he was directly choked by the wine, so he could only cover his lips with his hands and cough for a long time before he could suppress the discomfort in his throat. Although Palan said that it was enough to just make a gesture of love between the two, this plot was still a bit too bloody. After a moment's pause, Oss asked why.

Paran had no choice but to explain.

There are a total of ten cities under the jurisdiction of Ilan County, except for the county town of Stormwind, the remaining nine cities, regardless of economic strength, political status, or military power, Gothic City ranks first. Intuitively speaking, the city defense armies of the other eight cities are all city defense battalions, with only 500 troops. Gothic City, on the other hand, was a city defense regiment, with 2,500 men. The reason for all this is that Gothic is the economic center of the entire county of Elan County, where many caravans gather. Therefore, as the lord of Gothic City, Carter Dimon is the object of competition between various forces, he has been wandering between several major forces in Ilan County, and belongs to the kind of neutral person, which also makes him a transcendent existence in Ilan County, and no one dares to offend him easily. The city lord of Carter knew very well in his heart that unless one of the forces in Elan County defeated the rest of the parties and the family became dominant, he could completely take refuge, otherwise no matter which side he turned to now, he would become the target of public criticism. But not long ago, this balance was broken, and the Earl of Plzeň himself came to marry the Dimon family, and wanted Paland to marry Frank. Originally, marriage was not impossible, and the marriage of children did not determine the belonging of the family, but Frank was the only son of Pilsen, and Paran was Carter's only daughter, once the two got married, not only the Dimon family would be suppressed by the rest of the forces, but more seriously, the Dimon family had no heir, and was destined to become vassals, and eventually disappeared, and even the family name would not remain. However, Count Pilsen, the Magus, and the Galliani Branch, the meaning of this does not allow Carter to refuse strongly, so if Miss Palan already has a heart in her heart, and has made a marriage contract, this will be a perfect plan, all of which is completely protected by the Noble Convention, not to mention the Galliani Branch, even if it is the head of the Golden Family of the Empire, a duke cannot fight against the noble covenant recognized by all the countries of the continent.

Obviously, Miss Parland, and her father, Lord Carter, chose the Gothic City upstart Oss High Adjudicator, and Oss's identity is also worthy of Paland, although Oss may be a little biased towards the forces to which Emmed belongs, however, Oss does not have the status of a noble family, which does not affect the continuation of the Daemon family's inheritance in the future, and once Paland really marries Oss, Oss can completely get rid of Emerd's control and become another transcendent existence in Elan County, so Carter chose him.

Paran was indeed shy at first, but it became more and more natural, until at last she completely adjusted her mood, and when she finished speaking, she said in a calm tone.

"We just need to act like we're in love while Frank is in Gothic City, he won't be around for long, so, Oss, what's your choice?"

Makes sense, I see.

Oss pondered for a moment, then replied briskly.

"I don't suffer at all, so why don't you say yes?, my dear Miss Paran, can you tell me why Frank is so hostile to me and provokes me? I don't think you will tell him directly that your future fiancé will be me, and that I was a little deacon at the time, and that there must be some other reason for his hostility, and besides, I have a gut feeling that this must have something to do with the gods, right?"

Palan was surprised again.

"You see the look on your face already tells me the answer. Oss spread his hands and said a little helplessly.

Paran looked at Oss very seriously for a while before speaking slowly.

"You are really a very smart and intelligent person, and I feel more and more that my father's vision is really powerful, and his choice is very wise. Also, you've piqued enough interest in me now, and I don't think it's so uncomfortable to pretend to be a couple with you. ”

As he spoke, Palan stuck out the tip of his tongue and licked his lips.

The charm of that moment, so that Os, who was staring at her with all his attention, suddenly felt his heart beat faster, he was really a natural stunner.

"I think you look like you're going to swallow me now, but, Miss Paran, don't you think it's too early? Oss teased Paran, who was incomprehensible at the moment. Then he continued: "Now can you tell the truth that I want to know?"

Paran gave Oss a blank look, did not pursue his teasing, and said word by word.

"According to reliable sources, Viscount Frank claimed that he had been granted divine power by the God of Light while hunting down a heretic, and had overstepped and killed a high-ranking knight who was three orders above him, a fact that was confirmed by several knights and nobles. His godfather, the Archon of the Holy Church in Elan County, Metropolitan Wood, will recognize it as a miracle and report it. Frank. Viscount Galiani will run for the Divine Favor!"
