The autumn wind south of the Anvre Mountains, known locally as Ankaral, is blowing through the vast white plains, and waves of different depths are like walking into a vast sea, and the undulating low hills seem to be the waves on the sea, and a young lion man riding a golden lion is standing on the top of the waves, looking at the shining horizon in the north of the plain.

The lion under it was dressed in ornate armor and a beautiful pendant hanging from its mane, and stood shoulder-length among the white dead grass, swinging its huge head from time to time and sneezing slightly. The white wilderness is the symbol of Toquinen, and the origin of the name of the Holy White Plains, which stretches from the Silver Sand Coast in the west to the border of the human kingdom in the east, and to the north, beneath the endless mountain ranges, entrenched the mighty empire called Cruz.

The lionman boy stared in that direction closely.

"Nair, it's time for us to go back, that's the limit of today's patrol, if you want to go further, I can't afford this responsibility." Behind the drum, another lion man stood next to its mount and shouted to the boy on the mound.

The lion-man boy replied without looking back, "It's okay, we'll cross over there tomorrow." "Its emerald eyes sparkled with determination, and even by human standards, it was a fairly handsome lionman, with a golden mane like a tassel, a well-proportioned physique, and although stronger than most humans, the lines of its muscles were very smooth, and its upper body was bare, and it wore heavy shoulder armor on its right shoulder and arm, and a necklace made of animal teeth on its chest.

The lion man below could not see the view behind the mound, but it knew that there had once been a majestic fortress there, made of pure white stones brought from the plains, and now only the rubble scattered in the grass proved that it had survived.

"Nair, humanity will pay the price." It said.

"Yes, Amon." The lionman boy replied.

……

With the support of the maids, Akane walked through the long corridor with great difficulty, and saw Sidney's 'man' in a courtyard of birds and flowers, and unlike what she imagined, she was not a cold and strict nobleman, nor a graceful and luxurious lady, but a young girl a little younger than her—so to speak, because the other party had nothing but the indifference on his face, Her body and face resembled that of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old human girl, with waist-length blond hair and a face as delicate as a doll—she wore an extremely masculine silk robe with a fur rim of ferret fur rolling around the edges, and the robe was so wide that it almost dragged to the ground.

The girl looked in this direction with a blue gaze, and a single majestic look silenced the maids, and they took half a step back to let go of Akane, and bowed respectfully, leaving Akane alone standing a little uneasy, not knowing whether she should do it.

"You're the one they brought back from the south?" As soon as the silver queen Constance spoke, her voice was like a string of silver bells falling on the marble surface of the cloister, ethereal and crisp, she looked at Akane, and a flash of brilliance flashed in her eyes: "What a beauty." ”

"My name is Akane, can I ask...... What exactly is this place? Seeing that the other party was a girl a few years younger than herself, Akane felt a little less uneasy in her heart, and asked in a low voice. She didn't expect that her opening would scare the maids behind her half to death, although the Empress Xià was a woman, she was more indifferent and ruthless than a man, and they had never seen anyone dare to speak so presumptuously with His Majesty, for fear that the Earl would accidentally anger this moody supreme.

But Constance didn't mind, but smiled rarely: "This is the widow's palace." ”

"You say...... What the? Akane stared blankly at her.

The faces of the maids who were still chattering before turned white, and His Majesty's words were already so obvious, but this earl, who seemed to be unworldly, was still asking 'what did you say', what is the difference between this and calling him by his name in front of His Majesty? They could almost imagine Her Majesty's fury as she looked, and then followed by guilt and anger, and they could not help but tremble like fallen leaves in the wind.

But unlike what they imagined, Constance felt very interesting, she had never seen such a simple girl in her decades of palace life, she looked at Akane who seemed to be frightened, and a sense of pride rose in her heart, and she smiled a little narrowly: "You heard it right, this is the White Rose Garden of St. Contipia's Palace, I think you have heard of this place." As for me, to say that the whole palace, and indeed the wider land beyond it, belongs to me, I don't think anyone will object to it. ”

Constance thought that this sentence should be able to completely scare the poor little girl, but she did not expect that this sentence was far less deterrent to Akane than the previous sentence - because the mountain girl knew what 'this is the widow's palace' meant, but she did not necessarily know what the white rose garden of St. Contipeg had to say. Under the Sanctuary of Fire, anyone with the slightest knowledge should have heard of the White Rose Garden of the Palace of St. Contipe, the center of power in the Cruz Empire, but unfortunately, Akane, who grew up in the forests of Chablis Mountains, was a rare exception, and this place name with a strong political color sounded to her no different from the porter of the Baron at the front gate of Valhalla or the porter of the Baron Castle on Fort Fir Street.

Constance looked at the mountain girl with some disappointment and blinked, and asked her a little uneasily, "But how did I get here?" ”

"I asked you to come here." The Silver Queen is a queen after all, and this whim-of-the-moment failed prank was like a whirlpool on the water in her heart, disappearing in a blink of an eye, and replied indifferently.

This sentence silenced Akane.

Constance's words seemed to inject countless chaotic fragments of memories into her mind, connecting the links that had fallen off the memories to form a complete chain, and she finally remembered what had happened after Owena sealed herself in the undefeated enchantment in order to protect herself, and the real existence of zài in that dream. She was transported to sea from Lantonilan, then through Greywind Harbor and Swallow Castle, through most of the Empire, to the political center of the Empire, and finally liberated from the Crystal in the Temple.

Although she still didn't quite understand how she could have become an earl inexplicably, she was not stupid, and she reacted at this time, and realized who the 'girl' standing in front of her was.

"陛xià." She replied, visibly uneasy.

Constance nodded in satisfaction.

And the maids behind Akane finally breathed a sigh of relief, and almost patted their chests with joy, the Earl didn't seem too stupid; But Akane was obviously going to fight them to the end, because her words immediately made their mood that had just crawled out of the abyss fall back to the bottom in an instant.

Constance watched Akane fall silent in front of her, frowned tightly, clenched her fists hard, she raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked, "I asked you to come here and make you the Count of the Empire, you don't seem to be very willing?" ”

"I don't want to be any earl, Your Majesty, I just want to go back to Eruin."

The maids almost fainted when they heard the words of their Earl, if they were allowed, but after all, there was still Her Majesty the Empress in front of them, and she could only tremble, grit her teeth, and hope in her heart that her Earl would never say anything rebellious.

Constance also seemed a little upset, and she asked, "Why do you want to go back to Eruin, because you want to answer your lordship?" I heard that the Earl was still the same young man—a young man, a dashing man, and it was only natural for a young girl of your birth to have affection for her. She shook her head: "But you have to understand, you and him are destined to be fruitless, he has a great future, how can he look up to you, the person who can come to his bed in the future is either the daughter of a certain duke, or your princess, and you are destined to be only a disgraceful mistress, ask yourself, is that what you want?" ”

Akane stared at the girl who looked a few years younger than herself, and she wanted to refute, but she couldn't open her mouth. No, Lord Lord was definitely not that kind of person in her mind, but what difference did that make to her, Lord Lord already had a fiancée, and all she could do was silently watch this qiē happen. The Silver Queen's words pierced her heart like a sharp thorn, and as the mistress of the lord, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have such a delusion. "No, no, Akane, you must not think like that." She hurriedly shook her head and said to herself in her heart.

The mountain girl raised her head, her cheeks already hot.

Constance looked at him coldly, and then asked, "Do you still want to go back?" ”

Akane nodded.

Constance's face turned cold: "Do you think I will let the Azure Spear leave the Empire, little girl, I would rather destroy it than watch such a thing happen." Her voice was so cold that it was oozing, and the majesty of the Supreme that had been accumulated over the years almost made the few mountain girls behind Akane tremble with their hands and feet, and they were like sifting chaff, as if they would be paralyzed at any moment.

But Akane looked at the queen stubbornly, and her gaze seemed to have answered the question - even if she died, she would die by Brando's side.

It was not difficult for Constance to feel this insistence, and she snorted coldly: "It's not difficult for you to die, aren't you afraid of affecting your lord, he can be regarded as having a great future." ”

The mountain girl shuddered, clenched her fists and looked at her angrily.

Constance couldn't help but shake her head when she looked at Akane like this, she raised her head and said to the frightened maids, "You guys go down first." ”

The maids hurriedly bent down and retreated, but they couldn't help but secretly glance at Qian before retiring, as if they were afraid that the unworldly Earl would offend His Majesty too badly and accidentally lose their heads. The round-faced maid even risked her life to grab Akane's hand and shake it hard, this small action naturally fell into Constance's eyes, the girl-like queen Xià didn't see it at all, and waited until all the maids left, she said: "Although it's the first time we meet, I can see that they care about you very much, do you know the situation of the mountain people in the empire?" ”

Akane is not a puppet, so she can naturally feel the concern from these girls of the same race, and she is slightly moved in her heart, but she still doesn't say a word on her face.

"What a stubborn little girl." Constance replied: "But you and I insist on you in the slightest, you are the Count of the Empire today, and you will always be the Count of the Empire, whether you accept this status or not, you must pledge allegiance to me with a sword." She warned, "I can tell you in no uncertain terms, Akane, that from this day onwards if you dare to leave the White Rose Garden of St. Contipès, I will send an army against Eruin and hang your beloved Earl." ”

Akane's face turned pale and she looked at her in disbelief, but Her Majesty, the queen of the empire, didn't care and continued: "Of course, until you swear allegiance to me, I will give you the land in the wilderness of the four realms as a fief as promised. But remember, there's not much time left for you, and you don't want to gamble with your Brando-smic future, do you? ”

When the mountain girl heard her name come out of her mouth, her whole body almost became shaky, and she seemed to feel the world spinning for a while, and her heart was at a loss; But from where a surge of courage came from, she suddenly gritted her teeth and raised her hand, and the jade-colored holy spear suddenly appeared in her hand, and she let out a beastly roar in her throat, and raised the spear and stabbed it into Constance's lower abdomen. With a soft snort, the azure spear almost pierced the silver queen, and Akane gasped for breath at that moment as if she had lost her strength, but when she raised her head, she saw that Constance had no pain on her face, but looked at her coldly: "...... Is that your answer, Lord Earl? ”

"You ......" Akane looked at the gun in her hand in a daze.

Constance raised a hand and put it on the Azure Spear, and then pulled the blade out of her body inch by inch, she glanced at her abdomen red with blood, and then at the Mountain Folk Girl, and shook her head in disappointment: "You are a person approved by the Azure Knight, you and your Azure Spear can't hurt me, go down, you need to be sober." But remember my words, if you dare to act rashly, I will be the first to take Eruin. ”

Akane was almost stunned, looking dazed.

"Guards!" Constance covered her abdomen with one hand and shouted coldly, "Take Count Mithra down." ”

But for a moment, the silver queen watched the guards carry Qian away, and finally showed an unwilling look in her eyes, she gently bared her teeth, and then let go of the hand pressed on her lower abdomen, and her palm was already blood-red. However, instead of summoning a priest or a doctor, she glanced behind a bush in the garden, and said coldly, "Come out, what a sneaky person." In a moment, the bushes there trembled and a man dressed as a chamberlain came out, who glanced at the queen with some trepidation, and asked flatteringly, "Your Majesty, are you alright, do you want to ......?"

"Who told you that you could speak in front of me," Constance interrupted, "what are you hiding there for, are all the people out there dead?" ”

"Your Majesty, of course not, because it's a secret document of the Four Realms." The man was startled and quickly replied.

"The secret letter of the Four Realms," Constance frowned, "What's the matter with the elves." ”

The man hurried closer and whispered a few words to her.

After listening to this, Constance's face sank slightly. "Is this letter true?"

"It's true, Your Majesty."

……

North of the Yanirasu and Ash Mountains, the Tokunin lion infestation is decreasing, a situation that is unusual as the situation in the north becomes more tense day by day. The human scouts headed north, and soon found an army in the steppes that had never been seen before, and this army, which was gathering from all directions, was now heading north, approaching the Anvre Pass—a news that soon crossed the Sea of Glitter, crossed Ampesel in the south, and deep inland, to those who needed it.

"Brando." When Her Royal Highness called Brando in the courtyard, she was preparing the saddle for the horses. Brando couldn't help but be slightly stunned when she saw Princess Griffiin walking out of the house: "Your Royal Highness, I was about to go to you." ”

"Come and say goodbye to me?"

Brando scratched his hair in a very unaristocratic manner, although he did intend to do so, but it was still embarrassing to be pointed out by Her Royal Highness the princess in person. Speaking of which, this is his home, and Her Royal Highness the Princess is his guest, it is a bit impolite to leave the guests out in the cold like this, and he is in a hurry to rush back to the territory. It's just that now is not the time for him to care about being polite or impolite.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness Princess, my subordinate has been missing for a while, and I have to hurry." That's all he could reply.

Princess Griffiin was slightly dissatisfied: "You weren't so polite when you slammed the door from my study that evening. ”

"Did I slam the door?" Brando was startled, and dared to play slamming the door with Her Royal Highness the Princess, and he was afraid that he would not be able to run away from the title of a powerful minister, and he was just too lazy to talk nonsense with Macaro that night, and he just took a step first, how did it become a slamming door.

Princess Griffiin looked at him quietly: "Brandoqing, you and the royal party are in harmony, this is nothing, I understand your ideals - but the power of the old nobles in the kingdom is deep-rooted, and the royal party is also a part of them, if you offend them repeatedly, they may not give up." ”

Brando was a little disdainful, he knew too much about these old nobles in the mouth of Her Royal Highness the princess in his previous life, they were a group of good-for-nothing people, and the royal party could still make a difference among them, but it was nothing more than that. He spread his hands and said: "I just show my attitude, as for Mr. Macaro's courage in breaking their wrists, I admire them very much, but I don't dare to compliment." Today the Cruz can take one person from the land of the kingdom, tomorrow they can take many more, and if Eruin cannot even protect its people, then how can this ancient kingdom be dignified? ”

"I understand," replied Griffith, "but what are you going to do, Brando, to declare war on the Empire as you say?" ”

"Are you here to dissuade me, Princess?"

Griffiin shook his head slightly, "I can't persuade you, but I'm sure you'll be measured, right, Brando." ”

Brando heard the helplessness in Her Royal Highness the Princess's tone, and his momentum couldn't help but weaken a little, it didn't seem to be a long-term thing to show off his might in front of the lady, he was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "I'm not blind to that point, war or not depends on the attitude of the Empire, but I must bring my subordinates back from the Cruz, and then whether the Queen will be thunderous and angry, it's not easy to say." But in any case, Eruin needs to be ready for war. ”

Her Royal Highness the Princess breathed a sigh of relief.

"I knew you were going to be measured."

She paused, "Well, then, I'll appoint you as the head of the next Eruin envoy to the Empire, what do you think, Lord Count." ”

Brando saw that Her Royal Highness the princess raised her head to look at her, and there seemed to be some kind of cunning light hidden in her pale silver-gray eyes, and she couldn't help but be slightly stunned: "Envoy group, what envoy group?" His mind didn't turn for a while, could it be that Her Royal Highness the princess had set up a special envoy group to denounce the empire in order to recover the hostages, and so on, this is too outrageous. Originally, he wanted to sneak into the empire with a small group of people and rescue Akane secretly, but Her Royal Highness the princess's great idea was much more powerful than his idea.

It's like slapping the empire in the face -

"Your Royal Highness Princess, this ...... It's a bit of a big deal, okay. Brando was taken aback, and replied cautiously as he pondered the words.

"Why?"

"This ......" Brando thought for a while, and felt that this princess might be a little too idealistic, and he had to explain: "The Cruz people are still relatively good-looking, and the silver queen is even more so, if we do this, won't they not be able to get off the stage?" ”

"Where did you go, Brando?" Her Royal Highness looked at him in surprise: "I am the envoy of the participating countries of the Holy War Flame Temple, and I am the envoy to Eruin. ”

"Jihad?" Brando couldn't help but lose his voice and said, "The holy war has begun? (To be continued)
