Chapter 197: The Empress's Strategy Plan
For the characters in the anime, most people may not remember the name or the look, but they can basically remember the look.
From the moment the other party appeared, Shen He already understood who this was.
Empress......
His real name is Semiramis, the oldest poisoner in recorded history, known for poisoning her husband as a king, and then as an empress to rule the country.
Just as Shen He recalled the information related to the other party, Semiramis frowned slightly, obviously receiving the information that the summoning had passed into his mind.
"I see." The frowning eyebrows were calm, but he still maintained a demeanor that was far from cordial, "The title of the world's oldest poisoner is not used for faΓ§ade, oh, the lone empress of Assyria, but you can summon it?" β
Faced with such an announcement, Shen He was stunned at first, and then fell into a helpless mood.
If he remembered correctly, the most basic ingredient that made up Semiramis was the rejection of others, and for the empress, all others could only be "unintentional servants".
However, the empress's strategy plan is also available.
The person she really likes is precisely the person who goes straight ahead without giving a damn about herself, in other words...... The colder you are with her, the more effective it will be.
"The Empress of Assyria." Shen He, who had mastered the information advantage, made up his mind, "You should already know that there is no Holy Grail War in this world, and I can't only rely on a servant master, so if you are not willing to help me achieve my goal, for me, the only loss is this regret." β
This is not a lie, it is a foolish act to lie in front of the emperor.
Anyway, there are not no mascots on Shen He's side, if the empress can endure boring days, it's a big deal not to spend magic and resources to strengthen her.
Facing Shen He's eyes with his own direct gaze, Semiramis was obviously stunned for a moment.
"Interesting." She chuckled suddenly, and an inexplicable light flashed in her pale pupils, "It seems that Lone has been completely despised for saying that she doesn't want Lone's help, young master, tell me about your goal, and let Lone see if he is interested in helping." β
"This is a goal that will never end until the end of life." Shen He also smiled, "Grow up and move forward, I want to see what kind of things I can witness in this unusual life, and what heights I can reach, that's all." β
It's not so much a goal as a wish.
Although Shen He does not have a full desire for power, nor can he get the best satisfaction from power, he does not regret what he is doing now, because he is enjoying this unusual life.
How many people can there be on a planet, and how many people can there be in the multiverse, it is he who got such an opportunity.
For this alone, Shen He thought he had no reason to hesitate.
"Interesting."
Regarding Shen He's declaration, Semiramis still only replied with these two words.
But her dead heart suddenly throbbed.
She was not interested in wealth, but she seduced King Ninos and was seized and became a princess; She was not attached to power, but only a few days after becoming a princess, she poisoned her husband and took over the kingdom; She doesn't care about prestige, but after mastering the kingdom, she has achieved great things and left a legend of her own.
Decadence and ambition, two very different temperaments constitute a contradictory empress.
But until Semiramis was dying, he didn't understand what he really wanted, what he really needed.
And now, from Shen He's eyes, she saw a similar mood to herself.
Maybe what I hope for is just the word "life".
"Then, Empress Semiramis." Shen He smiled and made a final inquiry, "What is your decision?" β
"Didn't Lone already give a reply?" Semiramis's thoughts returned from the memory, and she raised her slender neck, "You are very interesting, your wish will be fulfilled by Lone, not to mention, the matter has come to this, Lone can no longer find the slightest reason to refuse." β
The unequal relationship is also something that the empress cannot ignore.
Judging from the information she has already received in her mind, her days as a heroic spirit have come to an end, and she will exist as a servant for the next long time.
"Looks like I don't have to feel sorry." Shen He also breathed a sigh of relief.
didn't expect the strategy plan to work so well, he looked at the decadent beauty in front of him, and decided that it would be better for her to be cold in the future.
"Speaking of which, this is your room?" Semiramis then began to look around, and there was a slight haze in his voice, "Do you already have a wife, or do you have a lover?" Mistress? β
What a kind of person the empress is.
If the faint smell in the air doesn't mean anything, then the items and layout in this room are enough to show that there is a hostess with the same status as the master.
Of course, she is not jealous, but the empress, who has long been accustomed to the thinking of those in power, can hardly tolerate another woman with a higher status than herself.
"It's lovers." Shen He didn't notice the empress's little emotion, he said with a smile: "I'll take you to meet the rest of the servants, you also need to know some more about the situation, to be honest, we have been a little busy lately, and your welcome dinner may need to wait a little longer." β
It's obviously not a good time to have a party.
At that time, the welcome dinner party and the celebration banquet of the victory of the war may be held at the same time.
"Your lover is also a servant? Lone wants to meet...... Hum. Semiramis grunted inexplicably.
"How ......"
Shen He just opened his mouth, and suddenly closed it again, he felt that it was better not to ask.
After learning that a new Servant had been summoned, other Servants in the Marvel world came to the lobby one after another.
"Is it a Heroic Spirit?" When Joan of Arc learned of the identity of the empress, she was obviously overjoyed, "Great, in this world, we are also partners from the same hometown." β
"A saint of the Hereafter?"
Semiramis only glanced at it, and understood that this ruler was Shen He's lover, and a trace of ill-intentioned light flashed in her eyes.
"If the Lord really exists, then a poisoner like Lone, who poisons others for the sake of rights and interests, will surely be punished by the Lord."
With this sentence, even Shen He felt that something was wrong.
First, he doubted the existence of the Lord in front of the Holy Maiden, and then pointed out his own crimes, if he was a radical Holy Maiden, he would have directly stood up to eliminate heresy at this time.
However, it was Joan of Arc who stood in front of the empress.
