Chapter 653: Stereotypical British!
In this world, there is always such a pit, and men have to sacrifice their lives to jump down no matter what.
There's no way, although what Yi Cheng wants to do more now is to beat Long Aojiao, the eldest lady of Bichi, who concealed the military situation and didn't report it. shares, however, given her physical condition......
"Ben...... Miss Ben really forgot that there is such a thing! ”
Facing Yi Cheng's unkind eyes, Long Aojiao, who was obviously a little weak-hearted, could only lower his arrogant head at this time to show that he was deeply aware of his mistake this time.
"It's better if you really forgot about it, or if you became stupid when you were pregnant...... Anyway, I'm the one who's going to play now! It's me! ”
"Shouldn't you, as a mere citizen, feel honored to be able to replace Miss Ben...... Ah! ”
So, after being hit by a fart blow, Long Tsundere, who was a dead duck with a hard mouth, could only bite his lip and retreat aside, and even though Yi Cheng was helpless, at this time, he had to continue to fulfill the corresponding obligations after using the corresponding power as a male, as a spouse, and as a father of a child.
"Now...... Tell me about the rules and do's and don'ts of this Holy Grail War. ”
Next, combined with some of the information he had learned before, as well as Long Aojiao's supplementary explanation, Yi Cheng roughly figured out what kind of situation he was about to face.
In this process, many heirs who play the role of "candidates" need to prove themselves and improve themselves in the assessment again and again, so as to show that they have the strength and ability to inherit the foundation of the British royal family and become the king of Britain.
In this process, in addition to the initial succession order determined by objective reasons such as eldest and youngest, the royal family will also arrange assessments to test the level and ability of the heir again and again, and rely on these assessments to determine the possibility and rationality of each heir to eventually become the king of Britain.
If it is said that this assessment is like a sieve to exclude the vast majority of competitors who do not meet the requirements and lack of ability, then the final assessment with the greatest impact, the most weight, the highest score, and the most important assessment is the current "Holy Grail War".
As Prince Christina said earlier, only those who can obtain the approval of the "Holy Grail" can truly be qualified to step on that throne in the future and become the king of Britain in the true sense.
"That's right...... I always feel that this kind of selection is a bit of a cart before the horse, what if the 'Holy Grail' doesn't end up recognizing any heirs? ”
"It's not unheard of in history."
Prince Christina, who didn't know when she was swaying again, interjected with a smile when she heard Yi Cheng's question.
"Although the successor to the royal family was reluctantly chosen, in most cases, the fate and end of these kings who were not approved by the Holy Grail were quite miserable, and the country was thrown into chaos until the new successor approved by the Holy Grail was reversed...... So, this is the fundamental meaning of the existence of the Holy Grail War. ”
"Okay, I kind of get it, so now, I have one last question."
Fortunately, Prince Christina didn't understand this stalk, so Yi Cheng was able to raise his questions smoothly.
"From just now to now, who is the 'Holy Grail' we are talking about? What the hell am I ...... To be recognized by whom? ”
“……”
When he noticed the eyes of the girls around him who looked like fools, Yi Cheng suddenly realized that he seemed to have asked a stupid question.
"Actually...... This should be considered my own rudeness. ”
To be able to remain a gentleman in this situation...... Ah no, it should be said that the calm and friendly gesture of a prince should be, and it is undeniable that Christina herself does have quite a good personal charm.
In fact, the answer she gave happened to be the one that Yi Cheng realized later.
"I, named Christina Marie, the legal spouse of the monarch of Britain, the heir to the power of the 'Holy Grail'."
When the woman in front of her made this rather formal self-introduction, Yi Cheng noticed that the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral also bloomed with a soft light at this moment.
The glow of light descended from the dome and spread throughout the hall, making it incomparably bright and sacred, accompanied by bursts of chanting of hymns.
"Glory to the Lord......"
Archbishop Sally, who had already noticed this scene, solemnly drew a cross on his chest for the first time, and at the same time bowed slightly to Prince Christina as a sign of respect, while the surrounding believers who were responsible for preparing and setting up the scene of the Holy Grail War knelt on the ground and chanted and prayed reverently.
"Am I ...... What should be done to show that? ”
Yi Cheng, who was a little at a loss by this scene, really felt a little embarrassed when he looked at this amiable prince sister who was taken advantage of by him at the dance yesterday.
There is no way around it, and who has made him, a non-religious person, not think about it from the beginning to the end?
"It's okay, as far as I'm concerned, I still prefer the status of 'idle prince'."
Christina waved her hand to let the halo of light dissipate around her, then put her pipe in her mouth and took a puff of smoke.
"In that case...... Why don't you just pick a random heir that you fancy and end this boring fight? ”
"Of course...... No way. ”
Christina smiled slyly at Isei.
"As mentioned earlier, holding and supervising the entire 'Holy Grail War', and being an objective and impartial judge in the process, is also my right and duty as a contemporary 'Holy Grail'."
What a stereotypical British.
Seeing that the way to go through the back door would not work, Yi Cheng sighed, and gave up the possibility of this aspect.
And that means...... Next, he will have to represent Long Tsundere and personally participate in this competition, working hard to compete for the so-called "Holy Grail Recognition".
Soon, when everything was ready, and the chandeliers and lamps in the hall were lit, illuminating the whole sanctuary in the light of the dome, Prince Christina smoked a pipe, glanced around, and then gave instructions in a loud voice.
"So, this Holy Grail War...... Let's get started. ”
