Some of the most powerful races in the Elasia continent, the Angel Clan's battle is questionable, and their superb martial arts allow them to face any enemy without falling behind.

The Erathian Empire has always been close to such powerful allies, as these generations have lived within the borders of the Erathian Empire. Powerful aliens with a very similar appearance to humans will always step up to the aid of the Empire in its most difficult times.

The most recent example is that during the last great war, when the Erathian Empire was almost destroyed, these powerful creatures that had always been hidden from the world reappeared, using their martial arts and swords. Help the empire against powerful enemies.

Thanks to their help, the Empire was embroiled and launched counterattacks against the enemy in various places, eventually at Catherine's call. United, they defeated numerous enemies in succession.

It can be said that the empire was able to survive the last war, and the angels played a crucial role.

For this reason, the Angels are the only alien race in the Erathian Empire that is not excluded, and they have a transcendent position in the hearts of the Empire, and some people believe that the Angels are the guardians of the Erathian Empire.

But no one knows what kind of reason the angel clan came out of, and they will help again and again

Country.

Historically, every time the Angels have helped the Empire, they have retired and disappeared from the eyes of the world again, and this situation has not changed until Catherine became the Empress. With the efforts of this strong woman with strong personal charm, the angel clan has changed its previous style and began to have more and more contact with the outside world.

No one knows how Catherine persuaded the Angel Clan, but the fact that many Angel Clan warriors began to join the regular army of the Empire was a thing that made the Emperor ** overjoyed.

And the angel legion formed by Catherine, which was composed entirely of angel warriors, was regarded as a secret weapon by the emperor.

Cut, because of the existence of this powerful army commanded by Catherine herself, Catherine can always shock the opposition forces in the empire, although it is a bit unjustifiable, but still stay on the throne for such a long time, if it were not for Kendall's betrayal, the imperial aristocratic forces who want to force Catherine to abdicate will definitely not dare to act rashly.

Catherine's abdication has had a variety of impacts, among which the most headache for the emperor is the ambiguous attitude of the angel warriors in the emperor towards the empire

。

In this incident, the Angel Clan is undoubtedly biased towards Catherine's side, although there is no clear support for Catherine as the Emperor ** team led by Christine and others, but all the Angel Clan warriors distributed in the Emperor ** have taken two sides to watch the development of the situation.

And Catherine's Angel Guards have always been guarding Catherine's side, even after Catherine announced her retreat, she still never gave up on Catherine, and the powerful, unknown where the Angel Legion was stationed, was still under Catherine's command.

In addition, Catherine is the empress of another empire that is far more powerful than the Erathian Empire and has unified another continent, so she can still have a transcendent position in the empire, influencing the decisions of the new emperor and Kendall.

Otherwise, an empress who has lost power would have long since lost her position.

Kendall wasn't very good at politics, though. But he was able to grasp Catherine's personality and her feelings for the Empire, and he believed that Catherine would help him deal with the affairs of the Angel Clan.

In fact, Catherine is indeed doing this, she has spent a lot of effort to make the Angel Clan have such a close connection with the Empire, and she will definitely not let the Empire lose such a powerful help just because she is leaving.

But the Angels weren't Catherine's puppets after all. They also have their own ideas, and they are not so easy to be at the mercy of others.

The reason why the Angel Clan has repeatedly helped the Empire. The root cause is an ancient vow.

The founding emperor of the Erathia Empire, Reengefenhardt, once had a favor to the Angel Clan, because of his support, the Angel Clan, which was once weakened to the point of almost extinction, survived, because of this great kindness, the Angel Clan at that time vowed to protect the empire of Riengeffenhardt forever.

It is because of this oath that the Angel Clan not only settled in the territory of the Empire, but also repeatedly stood up when the Empire was in danger to save the Empire from fire and water.

But time can change everything, and although the ancient oath still exists in the Angel Clan's Chronicles, the current Angel Clan does not have much sense of identity with the Empire.

Although the Angel Clan is a race with strong combat power and is keen to study martial arts, they are not a warlike race in nature. On the contrary, they actually like to live a peaceful life. They are not willing to fight if they can.

Rather than fighting on the battlefield, they prefer to hide in their own small world to hold martial arts conferences. They study martial arts only to make themselves stronger, to challenge the limits of what their bodies can endure, not to kill.

For nearly a thousand years, they have kept the oath of their ancestors and done everything they can to help the empire survive many crises, but their views of the empire are slowly changing.

Now that the rejection of aliens in the Empire is becoming more and more obvious, they know that although the humans of the Empire are still close to them, this still does not prevent the Angels from worrying about their future fate.

They knew very well that if it weren't for the fact that they were strong enough to compete with the dragons, they would definitely suffer the same amount of white eyes as other races in the empire.

In the eyes of the Imperials, their value can only be reflected on the battlefield.

This gave the angels the feeling that they were nothing more than tools in the hands of others.

And in the last war, for that ancient oath, the Angel Clan paid the heaviest price in thousands of years, and a large number of adult warriors died in battle, which greatly damaged the vitality of the Angel Clan, which was originally not very populous.

If it weren't for the resurrection. Racial abilities have brought many fallen Angel warriors back to life. This time, maybe the angel clan will collapse.

Because of this incident, there are now two distinct opposing factions among the Angel Clan, one is the conservative faction who advocates continuing to abide by the ancient oath and defend the Empire, and the other is the radical faction who believes that the Angel Clan has reached the time to disassociate itself from the Empire.

Catherine was able to get the strong support of the angels after the war, and let a large number of angel warriors join the emperor ** team, in addition to her efforts, the secret operation of the radicals also played a key role.

In exchange for Catherine, they demanded that Catherine agree to break the ancient oath so that the Angels could do their bidding

Catherine readily agreed to the deal.

She knew, as it was. This ancient oath is no longer too binding on the Angel Clan, and if it is barely maintained, it will only worsen the relationship between the two sides, even so, it is better to let the Angel Clan slowly integrate into the empire in another way.

She believes that with her sincerity, she can make the Angel Clan contribute well to the empire even if they are not bound by the oath.

In exchange for agreeing to break her vows, Catherine asked the Angels to support her unconditionally during her reign.

For this exchange, after considering it, the angel clan also agreed, in their opinion. This is actually a good ending, and if the oath of the ancestors can be broken in this way, they will not be ashamed.

But what neither side expected was this. However, just a few years later, Catherine was forced to abdicate.

This is a situation that is greatly unexpected by both sides.

When I negotiate with the Angel Clan. Catherine did not expect that she would abdicate one day, when not long after the end of the Great War, as the empress who led the empire back on its feet. Her prestige is skyrocketing, there is no opposition in the empire, she originally thought that she, the empress, would continue to be in power, at least until she wanted to retire herself, she would have enough time to influence the angel clan.

But the reality is cruel, and without a strong threat from the outside, there are a lot of discordant voices in the empire very quickly, and as a result, the situation is now that both Catherine and the Angel Clan are in a rather awkward situation.

Catherine didn't want the Empire to lose such a powerful boost because of her retreat, but as far as the conditions put forward by the two sides at the time, the Angel Clan had obviously fulfilled their promise, and if they wanted to cut off the relationship with the Empire, she couldn't force it.

For this matter, Catherine was not less troubled. However, as far as the current negotiations between her and the Angels are concerned, the situation is not optimistic.

And the angel clan is also quarreling at this time, due to Catherine's previous efforts, the conservatives have restored some confidence in the empire, plus Kendall and the new emperor of the empire have also shown considerable goodwill to the angel clan, they think that the current situation is just an accident, and the angel clan should comply with Catherine's request and continue to serve the new emperor of the empire for a while.

The radicals, on the other hand, believe that now is a good time to draw a line with the Empire, and that all the Angel Clan warriors should be recalled immediately, so that they can disassociate themselves from the Empire and let the Angel Clan recuperate after suffering heavy losses.

The two sides were at loggerheads for a while, and no conclusion was reached.

And Esrena, the young archangel. Undoubtedly, she is also a member of the radical faction, and she is also the granddaughter of the patriarch of the angel clan, and has a high influence among the angel clan, and at the same time, she is also one of the leaders of the radical faction.

Although out of affection for Catherine as a human, she is willing to serve under Catherine. But she was not willing to swear allegiance to the new ruler of the empire, and in her eyes, neither the new emperor Alexander nor the regent Kendall could be compared to Catherine.

Like most of the Angel Clan, the ruler of the empire she identifies with can only be Catherine.

As Catherine's trusted subordinate, she even instigated Cajiline to regain the throne.

After Catherine rejected her offer. As for where the angels will go, Esreina is also very confused.

During the years that Catherine was around. This young angeless was influenced by Catherine in many ways, and her knowledge grew as she saw it. Now, her mind has long since changed.

Although the Angel Clan is powerful, it is obviously not easy to stand alone in this continent that is slowly changing and full of wars.

The dragons and titans are also very powerful, but they still can't form their own country on this continent, and the angel clan can recuperate for so many years without being disturbed by the outside world, which is obviously related to the protection of the powerful Erathian Empire, and the two are actually interdependent

。

She now somewhat understood the thoughts of the conservatives, but even so, she was still reluctant to let the Angels continue to help the Empire.

Especially after the Empire's large-scale expulsion of aliens to Hammondale, Acereena was even more disappointed, and the Empire was disappointed.

What she longed for was what Catherine had described to her. A strong empire where races coexist in harmony, not one with a strong rejection of the aliens.

And under the influence of Catherine, she believes that the empire is not far from decline under the rule of the new emperor and Kendall.

The Angel Clan has helped the Empire for nearly a thousand years for an oath, and now it is time for change, and the Angel Clan, who has done nothing wrong, should not perish with the already decaying Empire.

Esreina was deeply tired of what is now the Erathian Empire.

In her opinion, if the Angel Clan wants to continue that kind of life in this world. I'm afraid that I have to leave the continent of Erathia.

Originally went to Enlos with Catherine. It's a good idea, after all, the Enroth continent is a unified continent, and wars are rarely going on now.

But Catherine was not willing to do so. Even if Roland is quite tempted by this.

At this time, when Jian Chen revealed to Catherine that he was going to move with his people to an overseas archipelago far from the mainland of Erathia, Esrena, who was also present at the time, was immediately a little moved.

If the angels can migrate to such a place, they can continue to live a life of seclusion.

So when Catherine proposed to send someone to find out whether everything Chen Jian said was true, Aisrena immediately took the initiative to ask, she knew that the other party's magic portal was one-way, but of course Catherine would not let her go forever, as a former empress, Catherine had a lot of good things in her hands, and there were also a few magic scrolls that could be teleported over long distances.

Esreena plans to take advantage of her official duties to visit the continent of Jadami in Tren's mouth. Even if it is a continent, it should be similar to the continent of Erathia, and if the situation there is suitable, she will advise her clan to relocate when she returns.

With this in mind, she came to Hammondal, and at the same time, she also had a deep curiosity about Chen Jian, whom Catherine had always praised.

Catherine once said that Chen Ke was the best person who could help her achieve her dreams.

Esreina has been following Kaijiline for a few years. But she had never seen Catherine praise someone like that.

This made the arrogant Acereina very unconvinced. She really wanted to see if Jian Chen was really that good. (To be continued)
