Chapter 24: Heaven or Hell

"As the butler of Her Royal Highness Princess Kiris, there are some things that I still have to take care of, although the master has not instructed me! I would like to ask you, Augustus, how are you prepared for Her Royal Highness Princess Kiris? ”

Augustus glanced at the knights of the Knights of the Knights of the Warriors who were looking at Warwick vigilantly behind him, and said in a humorous tone: "The knights of the Knights of the Knights of the Warriors behind me can be said to have been given to me by General Burnham, so after arriving in St. Peter's City, I should go to St. Peter's Castle to meet General Burnham, if General Burnham suggests that I help Her Royal Highness Princess Kiris, then I will naturally not have any slack!" However, there is another option, if Her Royal Highness Princess Kiris is willing to marry me, no matter what General Burnham orders, I am willing to stand by Her Royal Highness Princess Kiris! ”

Warwick looked at the whimsical young man in front of him with a smile, and said with a smile: "I will bring this sentence to Her Royal Highness Princess Kiris, do you have anything else you need me to convey?" ”

"General Burnham has promised me that if I have the ability to conquer Ferreljord, then Ferreljord will be mine. Now I can give General Burnham an affirmative answer: Ferreljord is my domain, so wise Mr. Warwick, you should know how to convey my words to Her Royal Highness Princess Kiris, right? ”

Warwick nodded and smiled and left!

――――

"My dear sister, politics seems to me to be like a gamble, some people are located in a city, some are a country and some are the entire Valoran continent! Therefore, choosing a good speculative direction and goal will get greater gains, and even harvesting the Valoran continent is not impossible? Isn't it, my dear sister! ”

St. Peter's City, the imperial capital of Noxus. In front of a luxuriously decorated Gothic building, a woman with a ladylike demeanor and a woman's demeanor, dressed in the most popular blue women's robe at the time, further set off this woman's original superior temperament.

The woman smiled and looked at the person beside her, even if she was as conceited as she was, she had to be sure that this was a beautiful woman who was definitely not inferior to her, and looked at the woman beside her who was one of the few in the family who was willing to have a close relationship with him, and smiled and finished saying that this was not a lady's remark.

This woman who was not inferior to the woman beside her, who looked like a princess and a lady, was wearing a very rare loose samurai armor. There is also a simple-looking scimitar on the left waist, with a heroic and unruly temperament. She glanced lightly at the woman who addressed her sister but did not show the respectful tone in her tone, and sneered, "Cassiopeia, I have already given you the seat of the tattered Du Kekao family, so this is something you should consider!" And I'm just the scepter of war in Noxus, and I don't want to repeat it a second time. ”

"My dear sister, perhaps you don't care about the position of the head of the Du Kecao family in my hands, when everyone gazes in greedy awe, but don't you really care about the man that my father once mentioned at the banquet?" In the face of her sister's coldness, this woman, who had long been accustomed to the title of the first elegant lady in Noxus, chuckled with the ladylike remarks that the nobility was used to.

"You're talking about Augustus?" The woman frowned. Glancing at Cassiopeia, who was the most elegant lady in the eyes of outsiders, but in front of him was another absolutely unexpected face, that is, her sister, said.

"Sister, your eyes already think that I have expressed your suspicions! Perhaps judging from the title of nobility, this Noxian knight who has performed prominently in the holy war but has not received any noble titles and territories, he will never enter the decision-making body of our Noxus in his life, but the great lady Katerina, you seem to have forgotten that this Augustus was in the original Egustin Cathedral, but even General Burnham was willing to be the protagonist of the supporting role, and now Augustus is going back to St. Peter's City, do you say that he will not be transferred into this Noxian power struggle? ”

Cassiopeia smiled and looked at the man in front of her, who had never been interested in anything, with an expression of indifference. But her sister Katarina, who was frowning at the moment, seemed to feel that her words were not yet obvious, and continued: "Dear Caterina, have you forgotten that Augustus has a very close relationship with Her Royal Highness Princess Kiris, the woman who has the most hope of controlling the scepter of the Noxian Empire today! ”

"So what? Therefore, Augustus has been caught up in this storm of power that has swept through Noxus, has he? But Cassiopeia my good sister. How does this affect me? "Katarina, this ominous blade in the eyes of the other empires of Valoran gave her a cold look that Cassiopeia had expected wrongly, and looked at her coldly.

Cassiopeia's mind was already a little unable to keep up with the rhythm of her sister, and she covered her red lips a little unladylikely. Surprised: "Sister, don't you like Augustus?" ”

"Yes, of course I do, but if Augustus can't even conquer this difficulty. And how to conquer me Caterina to be my Caterina man? ”

Cassiopaia looked at the sister in front of her with cold and calm eyes, was silent for a long time, and sighed lightly: "Maybe Augustus should seek the blessing of the goddess of luck!" There are no friends left in St. Peter's City, and so do you, and so does Tyrone! ”

This time, the woman who terrified and awe-inspiring the Valoran continent didn't even have the expression to answer, but Cassiopeia, who knew Caterina best, the lady who was engaged in the profession of a diplomat in the Noxian Empire and served the Noxian Empire, still knew the meaning revealed in Augustus's indifferent and arrogant eyes: "If you can't even dodge the storm of power in the Noxian Empire, how can you match my Catalina's love?" Submit? Caterina doesn't need to bow her head to protect an ethereal love! ”

Strong, this noun engraved in the bones of the inhabitants of the Noxus Empire is not only manifested in the distribution of power, but also in the concept of love of many women, such as Katarina!

Caterina glanced back at Cassiopeia, who was standing gracefully, and perhaps Cassiopeia would never know for the rest of her life that Caterina, who was cold or even cold, was actually one of the heavyweights who most supported him to become the patriarch of the Du Qucao family.

"Of the five major families, the Du Kecao family has the shallowest connotation in the five major families, so the master who leads the Du Kecao family should not be an imperial military soul who is only loved by Noxian soldiers, but a pure nobleman who can advance and retreat gracefully among the nobles, and Cassiopeia is the best candidate, father!" Caterina and her father, General Du Quecao, rarely actually spent time together, and each time they spent very short of time, and when deciding on the family's candidates, Caterina expressed a very different perspective from her father, General Du Quecao.

"Cassiopeia is qualified to be the master of General Du Kekao, and I can hold the war scepter of the Noxian Empire!" If such a simple and great but very pure belief is completed, how can Katarina, the flower that bloomed with a bloody face in the Noxian Empire, not become one of the few women in the Valoran continent who is enough for any man to worship?

――――――

"Huo Nan, you seem to be dismissive of the deal I said?" Waiting for Warwick to leave the mouth, Huo Nan's eyes, which was holding the potion of the alchemist's latest book in his hand, were calm and indifferent, and Augustus, who was walking in front, noticed the eyes of this subordinate who had always been imaginative and not bound by knightly beliefs, and asked with a smile.

Huo Nan did not hide his dislike for Warwick, the notorious alchemist in Valoran. Even the Zuan Empire, which had respect and fear for Warwick's actions, was more likely to have more disgust than respect for Warwick's actions, not to mention the subjects of the Ionian, Acacia, and Demacia empires who were plagued by Warwick's magic potion.

In 1406 of the Valoran continental calendar, Warwick, who was known as great in the eyes of the inhabitants of Noxus, ordered his most proud disciple Singid to go to Ionia to open up a battlefield, and finally dropped a large number of magic potions in the Ionian Empire that made the Ionian Empire panic, fortunately, Ionia was not the main enemy of the Noxian Empire, and the place where the potions were put was relatively remote, so the Noxian Empire did not form a situation of war on three sides, otherwise in 1406 - The three-year holy war of 1409 would have been the biggest joke of General Burnham!

But even so, it was because of the two masters of Warwick and Sinjid that Honan became a noble slave in the Funn slave exchange, and then became acquainted with Augustus.

"Master Augustus, I don't think the promise of the alchemist Warwick, who has no commitment to morality, will have any effect! Does it make sense for such people to talk about a transaction as to conclude a blank paperwork? ”

Augustus smiled slightly, Lerma walked with Huo Nan equally, patted Huo Nan's shoulder, and said: "There was once a person who once said a word to me, maybe this sentence should be given to you!" Humanity is far from evolving and degrading, and hatred is the most obvious magic elixir that causes humanity to evolve and degenerate. Honan, do you really think I'm just talking to Warwick about a deal? ”

Augustus looked in the direction of St. Peter's City and muttered, "I am only proposing my terms to Her Royal Highness Princess Kirise and General Burnham before entering St. Peter's City, and I believe that they will not refuse, and will never refuse!" ”

A nobleman with a vast territory and a young Noxian with potential, a pillar of the future empire, the former is more potential in any case, isn't it?

Potential? Nothing in the face of real power! (To be continued.) )
