[[[net.com/cc. {0,10}o.{0,10}]]]

……………… Newcastle City ..................

Although the battle has begun outside, the crown prince is still here, because, as a kingdom that is about to fall, there is such a happy event, and a wedding is about to be held here. However, there seems to be something wrong with things. In the middle of the Crown Prince's vows, Louise shook her head.

"The bride?"

"Louise?"

The two stared at Louise in surprise. Louise faces Valudo. A sad expression appeared on his face, and he shook his head again.

"What's wrong. Is Louise not feeling well? ”

"Not really. Sorry ......"

"If it's not good for you, ...... another day"

"It's not like that, it's not like that. I'm sorry, Valudo, I can't marry you"

Suddenly the new situation, the crown prince raised his head.

"Bride, aren't you looking forward to this marriage?"

"Exactly. Although it is too rude to the two of you, I don't want this marriage."

Varudo's face turned red all at once. Wales said to Valudo with distress and regret.

"I'm sorry, Viscount. Since the bride doesn't want to, she can't go on like this."

However, Valudo did not look at Wales and took Louise's hand.

“…… I'm nervous. That's it, Louise. There's no way you're going to refuse to marry me."

"I'm sorry. Varudo. I used to look forward to it. Maybe also in love. But not now."

With that, Valudo grabbed Louise by the shoulder this time. His eyes changed suddenly, and he was no longer the usual gentle demeanor, but full of coldness. Varudo exclaimed excitedly.

"World, Louise. I'll get the whole world! You are necessary for this! ”

Louise shook her head in fear of Valudo, who had turned into a wolf.

“…… I don't want the world."

Valudo reached out to Louise with both hands.

"You are necessary for me! Your abilities! Your power! ”

Louise was terrified of Valudo like this. Valudo, who had been so gentle, roared like this, which he had never even dreamed of. Louise stepped back.

"Louise, have you forgotten what I once said! You will grow into an excellent magician who will not lose to the ancestor Brimir! It's just that you didn't notice it yourself! Your share of talent! ”

"Valudo, you ......"

Louise's voice vibrated with fear. This is not the Valudo that Louise is familiar with. What made him the one who said that? Looking at a viscount like Louise, the crown prince wanted to intervene to ease the atmosphere.

"Viscount...... you've been dumped. Hurry up......"

However, Valudo shook off the crown prince's hand.

"Be quiet!"

The crown prince was taken aback by Varudo's words and stood there straight. Valudo held Louise's hand. Louise felt like she was being entangled in a snake.

"Louise! Your talent is necessary for me! ”

"I'm not a magician with that kind of talent!"

"So I've said it many times! You just didn't notice it! Louise"

Louise desperately tried to shake off Valudo's hand. But because it was held very hard, I couldn't shake it off. Louise said, with a pained expression.

"I don't want such a marriage even if it dies. You don't love me at all. I see, what you love is only my magical talents. It's excessive. That's why you want to marry me. That's an insult! ”

Louise was annoyed. Wales was about to remove Valudo's hand, but was knocked away by Valudo. The crown prince's face turned red all of a sudden. As soon as he stood up, he drew his wand.

"Whew, that's so rude! This is truly insulting! Viscount, let it go now! Otherwise, I'll crush you with my magic blade."

Valudo removed his hand from Louise. A gentle expression appeared, but it was surrounded by lies.

"Wouldn't it be okay if I said so? Louise. Oh my Louise! ”

Louise said with an angry tremble.

"No, who will marry you!"

Varudo looked up to the sky.

"This trip has worked so hard to capture your heart......"

Holding out his hands, Varudo shook his head.

"Since it has become like this. Let's achieve a goal first."

"Purpose?"

Louise thought, 'What the hell is going on?' ’。 Valudo curled his lips into a dangerous sneer.

"Yes. I have three purposes for this trip. Even if you only achieve two goals."

"Achieved? Two? What's going on? ”

Louise asked uneasily. The scene that I didn't want to live in my heart swelled in a hurry. Varudo raised his right hand.

"The first one is you. Louise. I've got you. But it doesn't seem to work."

"Of course!"

Valudo held out his middle finger.

"The second purpose, Louise is the letter from Anne Rita that you have in your pocket"

"Valudo, you ......"

Louise was shocked, although it was a little sudden, but Louise didn't expect Valudo to say this, which was equivalent to betraying the princess. Although she still couldn't grasp the situation, she subconsciously clenched the short sword at her waist. This dagger was Dorag, the weapon given to him by the sage dragon—

"Well, when it's dangerous, take it out and use it." "Although you won't like this thing in the future, Aru." "But this time it's too dangerous, as a last resort."

And then the third ......"

As soon as Valudo said 'Ann Rita's letter', he picked up his wand and recited a spell to the Prince of Wales, who was watching from the sidelines. Varudo's second name, 'Flash', quickly took out his wand and finished chanting the incantation. Valudo flipped his body like the wind and aimed his blue-glowing wand at the crown prince's chest.

That's when it happened. An ice arrow struck Varudo by the throat, and Varudo was immediately caught in a dilemma. Ice arrows, [line level] can quickly use the water system magic, but if you still plan to kill Wales, you will be shot through the throat. Moreover, the Crown Prince of Wales is obviously going to use the [Air Hammer], and now it's really troublesome, where is the water magician!

Thoughts only crossed Valudo's mind, and he leaned back, passed by the crown prince's side, and then immediately used his [Blade] to break the [Air Hammer].

"Uhh

There was a popping sound in the air, and Valudo was shaken aside by the impact. On his military staff, a cyan air flow surrounds him. This was often used by knights to infuse magic into the wand, making it the magic of the blade.

Wales and Louise are now standing together.

"I didn't expect that Miss Ambassador is also a master." Wales has good eyesight, and this is obviously a [Quartet-level] water magician. However, now is not the time to talk about this, he looked at Valudo, who patted the corner of his clothes and smiled a little hideously, "You are a member of the Liberation Movement!" ”

"Louise, why!" Varudo's expression was crazy, indeed, he had always thought that Louise was a magician of nothingness, but now she actually used the magic of the water system, which made her wish suffer a big blow "Why! You'll be able to use water magic! ”

Louise showed a playful expression, and this time, not only Valudo, but even Wales felt a little wrong. This temperament and expression are very different from the pure and serious Louise before.

"Who the hell are you!?" Wales is also a bit of a mess right now.

"Peace of mind, Your Highness the Crown Prince." The 'Louise' grinned and pointed to herself, "I'm your companion, to be precise, my master asked me to protect this girl~"

"Can I trust you?"

"Hey, do you have anything worth deceiving me now?"

"Indeed." Wales smiled bitterly, and attached the [Blade] to his staff. Seeing that the crown prince himself intended to serve as a melee unit, 'Louise' immediately began to chant the incantation "Raguz Wattle......"

Because of the guards, the other party actually planned to use high-level magic, Varudo frowned, of course, since he knew that this was not Louise's own power, he was also a little relieved. Valudo was [Flash], and he was even confident that he could complete his magic ahead of that 'Louise' before Wales rushed over. Unfortunately, just as he was about to chant magic.

"Louise!" The talented man suddenly jumped in through the window and slashed at Varudo.

Varudo's eyebrows twitched a little, what is the situation, looking at the crown prince who came forward, and ......

“…… Issa Hagrath – Ice Lance! ”

and the Ice Spear......

“ightening·c1oud!” As soon as Varudo raised his staff, countless arcs of lightning spread out in all directions.

……………… Out-of-town ..................

There is nothing wrong with Dorag's pursuit being happy, but when Dorag is chasing with nearly a hundred magicians. Two cavalry were killed from both sides, and these cavalry should have been the "Liberation Movement" as the broken troops. The royal family's pursuit of troops is only a hundred, but the number of these two teams of cavalry is 6ooo, the most troublesome thing is that these guys actually ignore Dorag and attack Newcastle City directly from both sides, and the magicians of only a hundred people can't stop it, and most of the remaining magicians in the city have no strength to cast magic.

"Trouble." "Reinforcements?" "It's a shame not to pursue."

Just when Dorag was struggling with whether to go back and stop the 6ooo cavalry—

"Huhu

A blizzard struck, disrupting the cavalry's formation. This reminded Dorag of Tabasha, and of course, Dorag knew that according to the country's position, Tabasha could not shoot directly. So......

With the moment the blizzard stopped the cavalry, more than 2o people were killed from the city again. The three of them made the corners of Dorag's mouth twitch.

At this time, the back of his hand emitted a silver-white light, and his movements were very sensitive. The magician who unleashed the blizzard was, of course, not Tabasha, but Louise, who was uncharacteristically using sharp water magic. As for the person who was in the middle of the two guards - "Wales Tudor", the crown prince of the Kingdom of Abiong

"Mm-hmm, that's good." "Big husband Aru." "Plan through."

……………… Postwar..................

Newcastle City, in ruins. The walls had been reduced to a hill of rubble due to repeated shelling and magical attacks, and the corpses of the rebels and the royal army could be seen everywhere. The surviving Wang army, as well as a very limited number of faithful servants, are working together to clean up the aftermath. Because Dorag's way of fighting was so "bad", the rebels had fled in a hurry, and even their formations were scattered. At this stage, Newcastle City can be stable for a few days.

Of the three hundred royal army, more than half were killed in the battle, and almost all of them were wounded.

50,000 rebels, 8ooo killed in battle, and the wounded are not counted.

This battle should be considered a victory. However, how long can it last, the rebels won a stable battle, so they did not do their best, the number of combatable soldiers in the country exceeded 2o, and they could be called up at any time, in this battle, the rebels' warships were only dispatched less than 1/4. The kingdom of [Abion], although there is still a royal family, but ...... It's no different from falling into the [Liberation Alliance] entirely.

In the rubble-strewn square, everyone was busy because of the lack of manpower, and even so, when passing by, they would respectfully salute Dorag lying here. After all, this time it was possible to win, thanks to this dragon.

The reverent glances of those people made Dorag very useful, of course, now Dorag had other things to do, in front of him, it was the female mage who released the "blizzard" in the first place.

"Well done", "Plan to pass Aru", "worthy of my servant"

"Yes, Lord Dorag." Blocking her face to the black-robed mage, the voice of a middle-aged woman came out, and she respectfully reported to Dorag, "Although I prevented Varudo from assassinating His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I failed to keep the letter and was taken away by Varudo in the chaos, and besides, a [Quartet-level] wind mage wants to escape, even if I am also a [Quartet-level], it's a pity......"

"Indeed, as a water magician" "Let you leave Varudo" "It's a bit difficult for you, the groundwater." ”

"I'm really sorry."

The mage bowed his head and said with some humility. Unexpectedly, this person was actually the strongest water magician among the knights of the North Flower Bed - underground water.

"Although the princess's love letter is seen by others, there are some ...... of that" "But it doesn't have to be rectified, and the marriage is also very good, Aru." "Bastard, even I haven't read the princess's love letters! Mouth! ”

“……”

"Shut up." x2

It turned out that Dorag had long expected that there would be a time when he would be unable to do so, so he brought the groundwater and mixed it into the city of Castle, and told her that she only needed to save people. The rest is judged for themselves, if it fails...... Wait for the white light to bathe.

"That's right." "How's Louise going, Aru?" "What did she say?"

"After I returned the control of my body to her, that little girl really lost her temper. Now she is hiding with her companions, and she won't be coming to see you for a while. ”

"Well, it's gone." "Where are they now?" ”

"Well, Miss Vallière is now in the conference room with her companions, and it seems that she is trying to persuade the crown prince to go with her, but unfortunately it has not been fruitful."

Dorag breathed a sigh of relief to hear that Louise, Cairen, Tabasha, Turuk, Hilfield, and Gesho were all together safe and sound. Just when Dorag was about to solve the problem of being hated at the moment, the crown prince and his party who had gone to clean up the aftermath came over. Except for the crown prince and a few people who looked like military attachés. [Groundwater] Interested in letting go of the aside.

"Hello, Your Excellency the Sage Dragon. Thank you for your assistance, no words are enough to express our gratitude to you, originally, we should have entertained you as we should......" Wales said this, his expression a little subtle, and then a slightly wry smile, "However, now that the royal family exists in name only, I am not going to force you to continue to help us." ”

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness! This is? ”

The military attachés were a little puzzled as to why they would voluntarily give up their alliance with the dragon.

"Listen." Wales looked around at these people and said sternly, "Although there is no clear statement, however, the countries have tacitly assumed that the 'Sage Dragon' is a member of Torlistine." Now, although we have won, we are only sitting in the lonely city, and we have no troops to ......."

The meaning of Wales is clear, no matter how strong the dragon is, it is impossible to match an empire. Perhaps, by fighting on his own soil, he can hold the kingdom of Toristine and protect Anrietta. Even with this dragon's guard, Ann Rietta can get rid of the political zhì marriage. However, it is impossible to lay down the whole [Abion]...... Next, you can't make trouble for Anrietta and the Torristeen Kingdom. Even if you die in battle, you can't lose your backbone as a nobleman and as a royal family.

Looking at this majestic and dignified young man, and his words, Dorag's impression of him was even better, and he saved him in vain.

"Now, Crown Prince. Come with us to Torlistine. "Ann Rietta will be happy Aru" "Don't worry, who do you think I am." ”

"This can't be done, Lord Dragon. Angelita is the princess. They will not prioritize their own private affairs over national affairs. Wales looked at Dorag calmly, and although he was a little upset in the face of the three dragons, he still met the dragon's gaze, "I don't want her to be embarrassed, and I don't want her situation to be ......."

Wales did not say the following...... Because...... In the astonished gaze of the magicians around him, Dorag raised his claw and quickly knocked the crown prince unconscious with one finger.

"What are you doing in a daze!" "Before he wakes up, drag him to Toristin Aru immediately!" "Whew, technical knockdown, onboard!"

Since Dorag couldn't convince this stubborn prince, it was clear that Dorag's fist was bigger.

Well, at present, although Dorag has not captured the princess, he has successfully carried out a prince arrest operation. As a dragon, Dorag took a solid step. In order to capture the princess, capture the elves, and capture ...... in the future Ahem...... All in all......

"Retreat!" "Retreat Aru!" "Retreat the teeth!"

(A certain snake: So, that's it, the old man read everyone's opinions and decided to save the prince, above)
