Chapter 114: Exchanging Battlefields
When Heliga and Jusses walked into their living room, they found that the atmosphere was a little delicate, and for some reason, the scene of Heiliga's imaginary classmates playing with each other did not seem to appear. Everyone sat on the couch in the central hall very seriously, each pondering something.
Laura seemed to have arrived here before Hyliga and Jusis, but she hadn't been there long before she seemed to have been sent over, and the driver on Regram's side hadn't left yet, and was talking to Laura.
By the way, the so-called driver was a recent order from Jusses, and since Laura briefly took over some jobs that were supposed to be done by his father to contact neutrals in other states, and needed to travel frequently to the noble territories in various Crutchen states, Jusis was very considerate to assign her a car and a chauffeur. Because the life style of the former Duke of Elbaria can be said to be extremely luxurious, the place that can spend 100 million meters will definitely not cost 99.99 million, in this way to show his glory and pride as a duke and as one of the four famous families, but Jusis is not as high-profile as him, and there are some stupid wasteful behaviors. The things that Helmut had left behind before were deleted and simplified by Jusis in various ways, and in the end, they were put to good use.
In addition, it is natural that the princess of Elphine has come to the Duke's City Pavilion where Jusis is located since the liberation of Balyahat, and is guarded by two chasseurs, the Chasseurs of the North and the Rose. This time, the princess also came from the public capital, accompanied by Martha and two elite Northern Chasseur warriors.
"Long time no see, Your Highness the Princess." Heliga greeted Alfin politely, "It's just, what's the matter, all of a sudden, such a big battle?" ”
"No...... It's just, how to say it. Lane scratched his head, "It was supposed to be an opportunity to reunite and celebrate......
"It's just that the empire has become such a situation, and it doesn't seem like it's okay to pretend to be stupid like before." Gaius said from the side.
"We haven't heard much about the Nolde plateau...... But when you come here, listen to what they have to say...... You seem to be actively involved in the disputes caused by the civil war? Alyssa asked coldly.
The atmosphere was so stiff that even Miriam, who was originally elated, seemed to have given up the idea of wanting to pounce on Yusis, which made the latter breathe a sigh of relief.
"Although I do intend to make things clear...... But you don't have to be in such a hurry. Heiliga looked at everyone's eyes and smiled bitterly, "But I don't think you're too surprised." After all, when the civil war first broke out, I acted differently than you. ”
"Hmm...... We do know this very well. It stands to reason that you have a close relationship with His Royal Highness Olibat, and it is impossible for His Royal Highness not to choose one of these sides in the midst of a civil war. Rien nodded, "So, if you want to do those things, we don't have a position to say anything in the first place......
"However, as members of Class VII, we still feel the need to know what you really think." Alyssa and Lane sang in harmony, "It's not obvious yet, but you seem to have secretly arranged the role that each of us can play in the civil war. You saved the Imperial Maiden from the attack on the Imperial Capital, and it seems that you have protected her well, but during the previous incident in Notia, you offered to use Her Royal Highness as one of the bargaining chips in negotiations with the Marquis of Rogner...... Can this be seen as a political investment for you? "Macchias is also pressing forward.
"At the same time, you've been trying to maintain stability in Krutsyn...... It's hard to say if it's your own selfishness or something else...... Especially about the events in Keldik and the counterattack against the former duke. At that time, everyone had no time to think about anything else because of what happened in Keldik...... I didn't realize it until recently. Laura also said on the side, "And after Jusis has mastered the power of the duke, he basically listens to your ...... in everything."
"But even so, we still can't see what you want to do in this civil war...... I'm grateful for saving my sister, but I'm sorry...... I'm still confused......" Elliot said.
"And ...... It's obviously a hostile relationship, but you have a connection with Sister Vita......" Emma on the side mentioned this matter, her eyes darkened, "This is also a very puzzling point...... I don't even understand what my sister is thinking......"
"Hmm...... Even characters like the Sword Emperor, as well as the dangerous Chasseurs of the North, are at your disposal. Even from the perspective of the Intelligence Agency, it feels a bit excessive, right? Miriam also looked away from Jusis and said slowly.
"......" Heiliga looked at Fei and then at Princess Elfin, and got two helpless "you can do it". As for Levy, he didn't have any expression, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking, maybe he didn't care about the children's thoughts. As for Jusis on the side, it seemed that he wanted to say something, but was stopped by Heliga's gesture.
"Originally...... I thought you'd be having fun for a long time before you figured it out. Of course, I didn't intend to hide the truth from you. Rather, I have already revealed a lot of information to you, directly or indirectly...... It's just that you can't tie these things together. "But...... That's fine. There are some things that are not a bad thing to say it sooner...... It just so happens that I would like to take this opportunity to announce a message to you. ”
"What's the news?" Everyone asked in unison.
"Actually, not long ago, His Highness Olibat's contact came through secret channels. For some reason, the aristocratic coalition in the western part of the empire, including the chasseurs they hire, have put their operations on hold for now. The tide of war began to shrink throughout the western part of the empire. Although I don't know why, it also gives His Highness some respite. ”
"I see...... That's good news. Elphine let out a sigh, "Only, it should only be short-lived...... Cease fire? ”
"Pretty much...... But for us, it was an opportunity, an opportunity to switch locations. Heliga nodded, "It just so happens that with the help of this matter, I also want to convey the decision that His Highness has just announced." ”
"Do you mean ......?"
"Hmm...... His Highness decided to exchange their duties with me. "I will take over the affairs of the western part of the empire, and the eastern part of the empire, which is now subordinate to me, will be led by him and the Red Wings." ”
