Chapter 54: Deliberations
Liminosi, in the royal palace, in the council chamber, Filia and her brother Rhine Erou sat in the right seat, and below sat the general of the kingdom: Pengde, the head of the Knights of the Just Judgment: Long Milton, and the head of the Royal Mage: Lucas.
Because Lucas used the potion to freeze himself, he fell straight from the sky, and the landing point was fixed, and he was found by the soldiers at the first time.
At this time, Lucas's face was gloomy, he lowered his head and did not speak, because the dragons had very few lives and almost no contact with humans, the dragons' combat ability only stayed in the historical records, they misestimated the strength of Ajas, and failed to end the battle quickly, resulting in this series of accidents.
General Pengde cleared his throat and said, "Since Her Royal Highness knows the details of Countess Angla, why don't you disclose the information to us, so that the military can be prepared, so that the royal city will not fall into such a big chaos." ”
What displeased Peng De was not the destruction of the royal city, what he cared about was the battle with the dragon that made the civilians of the whole royal city look at it, and the Holy Light Holy See and the Royal Mage Regiment both participated, but the lack of military men and horses, which was obviously enough to hit the prestige of the military.
Filia said apologetically: "I'm very sorry, General Pengde, in our intelligence, the black dragon has a lover with a high position in the military, if you tell the military, then the army's abnormal movements will make the black dragon alert, so we didn't notify the military." ”
Immediately, Lelia's tone changed and said, "It's Viscount Vicente, who has been a frontier nobleman who has been struggling on the front line for generations. ”
At this point, Lyria shut up and smiled silently.
When Peng De heard this, the expression on his face softened a little, and he understood what Filia meant, the difference between the Kaijiang nobles and the ordinary nobles is that the Kaijiang nobles have more private soldiers, and every time there is a war, the Kaijiang nobles will start from the territory, assemble on the front line, and be knighted with military exploits, which is the queen of the founding king: a plan proposed by Belcelli to let the Kaijiang nobles obtain greater rights and interests to open up new land for the country.
The nobles of the frontier who hold private soldiers have always been the objects of the military's wooing, and it is not too much to call it a unity of interests, and Filia means that the military is allowed to talk about Roy's merits, which is beneficial to both parties.
"Your Highness, Viscount Vicente and Bishop Valen have been found and are waiting outside the hall." A guard walked in and said.
Filia's eyes lit up and she said, "Please come in." ”
The military represented by General Pengde was made up, so he didn't say anything more, and turned his head to look at the place at the door of the council hall.
The chubby Bishop Valen outside the door changed into new clothes and walked in, looked at the people sitting in the room for a moment, a smile appeared on his face, and he hurriedly greeted: "I have seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”
Then he nodded to the other three people, General Pengde and Knight Long Milton were all of the same level as him, there was no need to say hello specifically, and Lucas was his friend, so the greeting was omitted.
Behind him, Roy was supported by two servants, and his injuries had been healed with the help of Bishop Valen, but his body was not yet fully adapted and could only be supported by the servants to walk.
Roy was a little stunned by the figures sitting in the room, almost all the powerful figures in the entire Elucesin were there, the head of the military department, General Pengde, controlled all the direct armies of the kingdom, and the knight Long Milton was in charge of the most elite cavalry regiment in the kingdom, Lucas naturally did not need to say much, theoretically all the magicians in the kingdom were under the jurisdiction of the royal mage regiment.
Seeing Roy's appearance like this, Filia hurriedly shouted to the left and right, "Quickly bring the soft chair." ”
The two servants gently placed Roy on the soft chair, and Philia breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Roy: "I was almost worried to death, but I finally saw that you were safe, and I was almost scared to death when you appeared on the dragon's head." ”
Roy smiled and said, "But in the end, we won, didn't we?" ”
Filia gave him a blank look and said, "That's your luck." ”
General Pengde said to Roy: "This time you were able to successfully repel the black dragon, your credit is not small, in order to commend your merits, the military department decided to award you an honorary sergeant." ”
Eluceins' ranks are divided into: General, Major General, Staff General, Sergeant, Sergeant, Corporal, and Non-commissioned Officer Grades 1 to 9.
General Pender came up and gave Roy the rank of honorary sergeant, and his solicitation was obvious.
Roy subconsciously looked up at Philia, not knowing what she thought, but seeing Filia smiling, people couldn't see her thoughts.
"For the sake of the country, this is what I should do." Roy said righteously.
General Pengde directly gave him the rank of honorary sergeant, which was nothing more than his merits, and he wanted to whitewash the military department that didn't make much effort, and after figuring it out, Roy agreed, there was no need to refuse General Pengde, there were naturally many benefits to cooperating with the military, not to mention that there was a turning connection with the eldest princess, and if there was really a problem, she would also remind herself.
They are all people who understand, and General Pengde naturally understood Roy's words and smiled with satisfaction.
"Well, there's a reason why we've been summoned this time, and we'll talk about the rewards later, Lady Pamela......" Filia called to the side.
A middle-aged woman walked out, dressed in a unique soothsayer's costume and wearing Felisa, with a somewhat solemn expression.
The so-called Felisa is a black headscarf made of a special material, which wraps the entire head and neck, representing lifelong abstinence from marriage, and only some special people will choose to wear it in order to hone their spirit, always remind themselves.
"The king can't wake up at the moment, the reason is that the black dragon used soul magic to steal part of the soul of His Majesty the King, and the eldest princess summoned everyone here this time to help each other snatch back part of the soul of His Majesty the King from the black dragon." Ms. Pamela said.
Roy's brows furrowed, and just as he was about to speak, Bishop Valen next to him asked, "What do you mean?" How did the black dragon obtain part of His Majesty's soul? ”
Then he thought of something and quickly kept silent.
At this time, Roy had already understood the probability, combined with his plot cognition in the game, and had restored the matter.
After Ajath incarnated as the Countess of Angela, she used her beauty to get close to the king, once or twice, and after a long time, the king also loosened his guard against lingering with Ajasi, and through physical contact, Ajasi had the opportunity to steal part of the king's soul, and use this part of the soul to make the king wholeheartedly rest assured of her and love her.
This also explains why, in the game, when players arrive at the royal city, they find that the king is almost responsive to Ajath's needs.
Bishop Valen obviously thought of the intimacy between the two, so he quickly shut his mouth, how could he not talk casually in front of so many people.
Roy cleared his throat and asked, "But how can we find that black dragon who has escaped to the Void?" ”
Roy has some guesses about Ajath's whereabouts, and in the game Ajath escaped and hid in a small valley called the Red River Valley to recuperate, so if nothing else, she would be there, but Roy can't say it, so he can't explain it.
"I can feel her whereabouts." Ms. Pamela said.
