A huge battle razed the magnificent palace that once stood on the highest mountain range in the royal capital Aurora, leaving only a high palace wall, which became the last fig leaf of the battle between the royal family and the demons.

The death of Emperor Elvika means the end of the imperial rule of ordinary people, and also means the establishment of the imperial power of the demons.

Hestif, a country full of peace and sacredness, no matter how turbulent the imperial power is, the people who live here do not seem to be affected in the slightest.

But is that really the case?

The emperor died suddenly, and the crown prince disappeared for no reason, although the royal family officials gave reasonable explanations, but there were still many doubts.

Some people with sharp instincts began to suspect that there seemed to be some other force in the world that was manipulating everything.

For example, some churches of the Holy Church were forcibly removed after the emperor's violent death, and even if the believers rebelled and caused riots, they were suppressed very quickly.

Another example is the sunflower national emblem, which symbolizes the sun, and has been replaced with a strange and peculiar thorn coat of arms.

It is said that the third prince, who had not yet ascended to the throne due to some things, forcibly revised it in order to thank a certain person for his existence, despite the opposition of the nobles.

Hestifo is a country controlled by the aristocracy, even the emperor will not take into account the face of the nobles to assert his opinions, but this time the actions of the three princes obviously angered the nobles, but the latter was only opposed in writing, but there was no substantive threat.

This has to give birth to a trace of suspicion in people's hearts.

What's even more incredible is that there is a mysterious person from the East, who said that His Royal Highness the Third Prince was able to win the throne, all thanks to his merits, and hereby established the position of the emperor who has never seen before, with rights equal to the emperor and above the nobles.

Even so, those nobles did not get angry because of this, to be exact, they did not dare to be angry.

Some people say that it was His Majesty the Emperor who had not ascended the throne who had acquired a huge number of troops in the powerful countries of the East, so huge that they could make the nobles swallow their anger, and these forces were in the hands of the mysterious Oriental man named Chenming.

For these ordinary people, this is the most credible suspicion, but as for the truth, it seems that it is not so important.

In the palace, the newly built council hall, there are only Tirestin, Charles, and the only remaining two eighth-order Immortals, Ed and Xiubu, Pope Hasted and the Demons.

On the throne, Tirestin looked at Charles and asked, "How is Mr. Chenming's body recovering?"

"He's fine, it's just going to be a few days before he wakes up. ”

Charles said, "The battle with Jerath the other day almost exhausted his physical strength, and his body was also very traumatic, so the recovery was much slower. ”

"Then let him have a good rest, this time the demon was able to win, thanks to the hard work of the gentleman. ”

Tirestin smiled slightly and said, "When Mr. wakes up, we are holding several ceremonies, how can such an important thing be done without him?"

Xiubu frowned, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Chenming has been of great help to us, but he is not from his own country after all, and the minister thinks ......"

"What does the elder think?"

Tirestin raised his eyebrows and said, "I haven't ascended the throne yet, don't call me Your Majesty yet, and besides, we can have today's achievements, Mr. Chenming's help accounts for the vast majority, not to mention a ceremony, an emperor's false title, even this half of the kingdom is not enough to repay him for his help to my demon clan!"

"......"

Xiubu wanted to say something, but the moment he raised his eyes, he felt a huge pressure emanating from Tirestin's body, and his pupils shrank unconsciously.

Completely obtained the magic of half of Heather's heart, Tirestin's rank also rose with the tide, and the distance between him and the Beyonder was even closer than Charles, and his strength was naturally much higher than that of Xiubu.

"I know what you're worried about. ”

Tirestin sighed and said, "After all, without the Demon Hestif, it would be a small kingdom on earth at best, do you think Mr. Chenming's status in hell will be worthy of the slightest desire of this small country?"

He smiled and looked at the corner of the wall where there was a hint of green every few days, and said, "Whether it is heaven or hell, the world is just a prop to add some color to their boring life, and our struggle, in their eyes, may be just a rare wonderful movie." ”

Charles and Hasted glanced at each other, and both saw appreciation and recognition in each other's eyes, although Tirestin put himself in a low position, but for the current Hestifoe, such a low position is the best talisman.

"His Holiness the Pope. ”

Tirestin looked at Hasted and said, "After the enthronement ceremony, my two elders will enter the place of eternal sleep according to the laws of the demons, and I, after the birth of my child, will go there, and then everything about Hestifu will be entrusted to you." ”

Hasted was slightly stunned, looked at Tirestin puzzled, and said, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?

"Although the throne was taken by Mr. Chenming for me, I think you are more suitable to protect Hestifu. ”

Tirestin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "I have to say, you and the demon are very powerful, compared to you who were hostile to me before, I am indeed inclined to entrust Mr. Chenming, but the account is not calculated like this." ”

He stood up, took two steps forward, and said, "Hestifo is a people-oriented country, the people here are always more good than evil, and the existence of the royal family is only to better benefit people, which the devil can't do, but the angel meets this condition."

"As an emperor, I can't be emotional, I will choose what is good for the kingdom. ”

Pausing at Hested's side, Tirestin said, "The purity of the angels is a complement to Hestifo. ”

"Actually, you can change the rules of the clan. ”

Hasted 's eyes flickered, and he said, "You love this country deeply, isn't it better for you to protect it yourself?"

"Do you think the kingdom still needs me?"

"This law is unchangeable, and why, shouldn't you know better than I do?"

Hasted was silent, there is no doubt that the ancestors of the demons are wise, and the eighth-order demons are too powerful, if there is no rule constraints, once there is a rebellion, it will be a devastating blow to any country,

Hestifo is a kingdom on earth, and the birth of demons is itself an enraging edge of order, and if their war spreads to humans, then the existence of the demons will also be erased by order.

"But though I have entrusted you with the task of guarding. ”

Tirestin smiled slightly, and said again, "But given the church's previous actions, I still have to make a covenant with you for three chapters. ”

Hasted shook his head slightly, and said, "Why do you think I will agree?"

Tirestin thought for a moment and said, "Can you find a country that is more just than Hestifo?"

Hasted was stunned, and the corners of his wrinkled mouth hooked up a rare smile, "Tell me about it?"

"This first article, the church shall not force the common people to believe in the gods, Hestifo is a country that advocates freedom, and the freedom here also includes spiritual freedom, and the churches I removed before have more or less deprived the people of their freedom of belief, which is absolutely intolerable in Hestifo. ”

"Article 2, clergy shall not interfere with the power of the imperial family, shall not interfere in political management, and some of the powers released by the incoming emperor must also be forcibly withdrawn. ”

"Article 3, as the state religion, the Church must take it as its duty to help the people, and within the limits of its ability, the people shall be the head, and shall not do anything that harms all the interests of the people, and in addition, the royal family will also allocate a sum of money in the name of the Church to help those who are really in need. ”

"These three points will be in the form of a contract, no matter how many years it takes, whether it is for you or your successor, I hope that you will abide by these terms." ”

There is a glimmer of light in Hasted's eyes, and there is no doubt that these three points are aimed at the imperial power and the divine power, and a series of protection measures carried out by people-oriented.

This young man of only twenty-three years old, the new emperor of Hestyford, is simple and ignorant, but he is a real Ming monarch, although he is still a little immature, but he has the basic qualities to make a country survive for a long time.

Sighing deeply, there was a trace of guilt on Hasted's old face, "Compared to the authoritarian Elvika, you are more suitable for this country, and you only live for one year, but it is too tyrannical." ”

"I'm glad I only have one year left to live. ”

Tirestin's only remaining hand stroked his hair and said with a smile, "If you live for a long time, maybe your heart will change, this may also be a reason why demons can't get involved in imperial power, right?"

"Well, who knows?"

Hasted smiled and said, "Your Hestyford, I will help you protect it, no matter how long it has passed, whether it is me or my successor." ”

"Thank you. ”

Tirestin saluted sincerely, then stretched his waist and said, "I used to think that being the emperor should be quite easy, but I didn't expect that after only a few days, I was tired and my back hurts, I don't understand, why are they so keen on this......

The young man who succeeded the new emperor had a little more tiredness on his face, he should be tired, from the end of the war to the present, he has been busy without sleep, Atira's funeral, the aftermath of the emperor and the nobles and the demons, as well as the fabrication of reasonable explanations, he has done it himself.

"Since it is the path I have chosen, then I have to go on whatever I say, otherwise, I will be so sorry for those relatives and friends who accompany me, dead and alive. ”

The night in Aurora was as starry as ever, and in one of the palaces, Tirestin and Lilith snuggled up to each other.

"This is the former site of the palace where the Queen Mother lived during her lifetime. ”

Tirestin's eyes were soft, looking at the beautiful woman curled up like a kitten in her arms, and said, "Our wedding is held here, right?"

"It's up to you. ”

Lilith raised her eyes to look at the young man's side face, in just a few months, this originally immature third prince seemed to have a lot of vicissitudes, and even the smile on his face looked a little sad.

Being alone is like the greatest punishment for a person who has everything.

"I still prefer the simple, kind Tirestin I used to have compared to you now. ”

I don't know why, there was a trace of tears in the corners of Lilith's eyes, like reluctance, like pity, Tirestine, carrying too many things that should not have been carried by him.

"The queen mother said that it doesn't matter if a man is bitter, for what he wants to protect, no matter how much he suffers, it is worth it. ”

His voice was very soft, like a gust of breeze, warm and comfortable, "But now, I'm a little at a loss, what exactly do I want to protect? Demons? Hestifo? Actually, it's not, what I want to protect is just a home......"

Atilla, Miller, Elvika, the former needless to mention, the latter two were also his closest and most respected family members, but these three people almost all died because of him, Miller and Elvika were killed by his own hands, such guilt is enough to make him feel guilty for the rest of his life.

Why did he go to sleep? For the sake of the clan rules? He was not that great, he was just afraid, afraid that he would be consumed by this guilt, afraid that his soul would fall into the Hell Styx, and let this memory wash away his rotten and filthy soul endlessly.

Gently wiping away her tears, Lilith got up and looked at Tirestine, and smiled softly, "It's okay, I will always be with you, if you choose to sleep, I will sleep with you!"

Tirestin was stunned for a long time, and after a long time, he touched the woman's hair with a smile and said, "You are stupid, the sleeping place of the patriarch is impossible to be in the same place with you, even if you want to sleep, you will not be buried with me, let alone ......"

He pointed to Lilith's slightly bulging lower abdomen and said, "Are you willing to leave our children alone in this terrifying world?"

Lilith slowly lowered her head, her slender and slender palm gently caressed her lower abdomen, feeling the faint breath of life in her body, and murmured softly, "Our child will definitely be as strong as his father......"

......

Compared with the hustle and bustle of the palace, a white castle far away from it seems a little quiet.

In the brightly lit living room, there are two angels, Liu Xinglan and Chloe.

The docking with the palace was taken over by Charles, and Shaqiro took care of Chenming, who was still in a coma, and in the end, only these two people were left idle.

"It's boring......"

Leaning his head back on the sofa and looking at the light, Liu Xinglan muttered with a bored face, "I really want to tease Charles......"

"Can you be quiet?"

Glancing at the disease-free moaning young angel, Chloe frowned and said, "Chenming is still resting, if you shout like this again, be careful that I throw you out!"

"Chloe, why didn't I find you so unconscionable?"

Liu Xinglan sat up angrily and complained, "I'm also injured, okay? Miss Archangel! You can't just care about your boyfriend and not your friends, right?"

"Why do I care about you?"

Chloe pouted, "Your injuries are not almost recovered, don't pretend to be pitiful to me here!"

"The wounds on my body are healed, but what about here?"

Patting his chest exaggeratedly, Liu Xinglan said bitterly, "Is it difficult to cure heartache?"

"Then you're looking for your ex-girlfriends to soothe you, what are you yelling at me?"

Chloe rolled her eyes and said disdainfully, "What about the angel of love......

"Hmph!

Liu Xinglan snorted lightly, the worry in his eyes diluted a little, since he and Charles brought back the seriously injured Chenming, Chloe has never closed his eyes, although angels don't need to sleep, but if they don't meditate for a long time, the damage to their bodies is not small, Chloe's state, as a close friend, how can he not worry?

"Thank you. ”

Looking at the indignant young man, Chloe smiled, "Thank you for your continued help. ”

Chloe knew that although Freya, the god of love, would not interfere much with his subordinates, or even support them to become friends with demons, but a blatant help to Chenming like Liu Xinglan would eventually cause him a lot of trouble when he returned to heaven in the future, but he still came without hesitation.

When Chloe told Chen Ming that he had become a demon, Liu Xinglan's first reaction was not anger, but happiness, happy that his friend was still alive in the world, and he didn't seem to care if Chen Ming was a demon or not.

It was precisely because of this that Chloe offered to ask him to come over to help, and Liu Xinglan herself agreed without hesitation.

"Don't!"

Liu Xinglan hurriedly waved his hand, and said a little awkwardly, "I can't stand you coming to this way the most, as soon as you say this, my goosebumps fall to the ground!"

"Forehead ......"

Chloe was speechless, glanced at the young man who was playing with treasure, looked at the room on the second floor with a little worry, and asked, "You said Chenming will be okay, right?" ”

"You ask me, who do I ask?"

Liu Xinglan pursed his lips, but his face also darkened a little.

As soon as she brought Tatsunami back to her residence, Chloe tried to use healing magic on him, but it didn't have the slightest effect, and the Black Rabbit also used life magic on him, and the result was the same.

In his body, the strange domineering power seemed to resist their magic power extremely much, and all their magic was expelled from his body.

And just when everyone was a little anxious, Shaqiro took him to his room without hesitation, and after a few days, there was no sign of recovery.
