Seeing that Count Julian did not speak, Anthony. Anduin looked at Faria: "Dear Grand Duke, first, I am deeply sorry for the passing of your father, Archduke Antello has been the cornerstone of protecting the peace of the northern frontier of the empire for many years, and is also one of the most trusted ministers of the empire. His death was a heavy loss for Ferreton. ”
After saying that, the royal steward slapped his face twice, and the eight royal knights who had been waiting outside the door carried two heavy and magnificent gilded chests into the hall.
"This is a little bit of caution on the part of His Majesty, please be sure to do it. The Empire will not treat the descendants of the Antello family badly, and I hope that you will continue to protect the northern frontier for the Empire in the future. ”
This is already the third batch of goods sent by the emperor in recent days.
The recovery of the Antello family's non-hereditary lands was a legal necessity for the Anduin royal family to consolidate the rule of the empire. But that doesn't represent Rob. As soon as Antello died, the emperor really ignored the Antello family and left them to fend for themselves. If his nature is so cold, how can Trajan win the hearts of the people and run an empire?
After the death of a lion, the corpse is eaten by other beasts, which is the law of survival of the fittest in nature. But if those beasts are not satisfied, and want to fight the idea of the lion cub, it will not work.
"Thanks to His Majesty's kindness, the Antello family will continue to serve the empire in the future." Falia nodded slightly, then called a few guards to carry the two boxes down.
She continued: "As for the issue of fiefdom recovery, I will give carte blanche to Gordon. Baron Freeman to finish. Envoys can negotiate with them. If nothing else, I'll take my leave. ”
"Please."
Viscount Anthony and Master Schlieffen exchanged glances. Each smiled smugly.
"What a young girl. I heard that she was created by Rob. Antello was born to an Orlandot woman. With those barbarian bloodlines in the body, how could they know the cruelty of the political struggle? Perhaps, she's now relegated to Gordon. Freeman and the puppet of the Lord of the Blue Water. Master Schlieffen looked at Falia with a contemptuous smile. However, this girl is very good-looking, even in the imperial capital, such a beauty is rare. Even that student of mine is a little inferior to her. Well, it's hard to come to the Far Frost Province once, how can you do it without having fun? ”
Come to think of it. The Seven Rings Mage's heart moved, and the magic light in his eyes flowed, shooting out an imperceptible blue light. As small as a needle, it pierced into Falia's body.
Not long ago, Schlieffen captured a mind-controlling demon and fused her organs through a series of complex remodeling operations. Got the other party's abilities. Now. Not only can his eyes cast a spell-like ability called "Mad Gaze", but with these eyes, he can use "Powerful Charm Humans" three times a day and "Powerful Charm Monsters" three times a day.
Just now, an evil thought suddenly appeared in his heart, and he wanted to try his newly acquired ability, use the "powerful charm human" to quietly control Faria, and then find an opportunity to use the spell for the duration of the spell. Have fun with the new Grand Duchess.
His spell didn't work, though.
With no defensive spell touch, Schlieffen couldn't figure out why he had failed for a while. However, he saw that his small movements were not revealed. He put his mind at ease, glanced at Gordon as if he sneered, and said secretly in his heart: "Although the outside world has spread it, this Gordon. Freeman was just a young five-ring mage. He didn't have the spells I cast, so it was evident that his strength was nothing more than that. ”
In the world of Telos, among the rules for dividing strength and weakness that have been recognized by major spell-casting organizations, the mages from the first ring to the third ring are low-level mages; The fourth-ring to sixth-ring mages are mid-level mages; The mages of the seventh to ninth rings are high-level mages.
The biggest difference between a high-level mage and a mid-level mage is not only the ability to touch deeper magic webs, use more powerful spells, and have more spell slots. One of the most important points is that the Seven Rings Mage can imprint his "real name" into the magic net, and transform this part of the magic net into his own arcane energy source channel.
The fifth to sixth rings, and the sixth to seventh rings, are two huge thresholds for mages on the arcane road, which are extremely difficult to cross and gain a lot.
No wonder Schlieffen was so contemptuous of Gordon. At the age of eighty-seven, in terms of qualifications, accumulation, strength, and experience, he should crush the young Gordon.
However, Schlieffen didn't know that Faria, who he underestimated, had the blood of a silver dragon, and the dragon's powerful magic resistance simply ignored his spells. And Gordon, as early as when he observed Schlieffen's bad intentions, opened the eyes of truth and warning, and watched all his every move.
"Gordon, that mage cast a spell on me, and he wants to quietly control me." Faria leaned into Gordon's ear.
"I know." Gordon whispered.
The young archduchess said nothing more, showing her full trust in Gordon. She glanced at Count Schlieffen, and the cold sparkle in her eyes pierced the latter's heart.
But Faria didn't say anything and walked away. This made Master Schlieffen breathe a sigh of relief.
"Damn, it's in vain that I, as a high-level mage of the Seven Rings, was glared at by a little girl, and I felt uneasy!" suffered a small loss, which made Schlieffen quite unhappy, and for some reason, his resentment towards Gordon also increased a point.
A secret war between mages, Viscount Anthony, who knew nothing about spells, was not aware at all. He continued to negotiate with Gordon: "Baron Freeman, since the Grand Duchess has carte blanche to you, let's start dealing with the recovery of non-hereditary land, starting with Rainbow Springs Manor. This land is the smallest and easiest to deal with. After all, time is pressing, and the sooner these things are implemented, the sooner Your Majesty can rest assured. ”
"Of course I understand His Majesty's painstaking efforts." Gordon's face was embarrassed, "But please give us a little more time." This is Rob. Archduke Antello's main place of residence during his lifetime, and his inheritance here is numerous, and I would like to move them all before proceeding with the land transfer procedures. ”
"All we want is Rob. How can you let you take all the things that Antello left behind? Viscount Anthony sneered in his heart, but there was a very understanding expression on his face.
He said, "Mr. Baron, I understand your difficulties, but I can't keep Your Majesty waiting. And according to the land reclamation law, you have five days to dispose of the assets before the land is reclaimed, and now, the time has already come. ”
The Land Reclamation Act does have this provision. However, when to start calculating asset processing time is a flexible thing.
According to Viscount Anthony, from Rob. When the news of Antelo's death reached the imperial capital, Faria inherited the title of Grand Duke, and it was time to start counting the time to dispose of the assets.
Traditionally, the time taken to dispose of the assets is counted from the formal contact between the heirs of the estate and the royal envoy who reclaimed the land.
"Viscount Anthony, you're too anxious to do this." Obviously, Count Julian was very dissatisfied with the other party's attitude, and said in a stiff tone.
"Lord of the City, this is not a question of whether I am in a hurry or not, but the will of His Majesty." Anthony didn't budge.
In this era, the legal terms were far from being "perfect", ambiguous, and there were many loopholes to exploit, so Anthony, who had Anduin's royal status and the support of the Eisenstein family, dared to misinterpret the legal terms in a way that was beneficial to him, and had the courage to persecute the other party.
Gordon hesitated and said, "Mr. Steward, the Grand Duke has left many spell traps in the Rainbow Spring Manor, and if we want to remove all the relics, we have to crack all these spell traps, which is extremely time-consuming, I hope you can understand this." Moreover, if these spell traps are not dismantled and the manor is handed over to you directly, I am afraid that there will also be security risks. ”
"Don't worry about that, it's because of this that Gen Schlieffen will accompany him." Anthony smugly pointed to the Seven-Ring Mage beside him.
"I think I still have some experience and experience in disarming spell traps." Schliefinon tidied up the mage robe, and deliberately showed the seven-ring mage logo embroidered on his chest, and the implication was too obvious: I am a dignified seven-ring high-level mage, you are a five-ring little mage, let's get out of the way, you are not needed here.
"This ......" Gordon frowned, hesitating.
Seeing that the other party had shown timidity, Schlieffen became more and more proud: "This is Gordon, who made outstanding contributions in the Battle of High Rock. Freeman? is another young man who is boasted about and does not live up to his name. It seems that Rob. Antelo's vision wasn't good either. ”
Schlieffen was already impatient, he didn't want to talk any more, and was ready to use the mage's way to solve the trouble in front of him.
The ray of "powerful charm of humanity" silently shot out of Schreffen's eyes again, and went straight into Gordon's eyebrows. This time, Schlieffen's spell seemed to have succeeded, and he saw a look of confusion in Gordon's black eyes, so he secretly gave the order.
Gordon suddenly said: "In this case, then I can only choose to back down." Mr. Special Envoy, when are you going to start the recovery of Rainbow Springs Estate? ”
"The sooner the better, how about after dinner?" Anthony saw Gordon's sudden change of attitude, and knew that this was Schlieffen's manipulation, and immediately said.
He sighed in his heart, the spell was really convenient, and it could solve almost all problems. No wonder the caster's status is so high.
"No, I don't agree! Baron Freeman, why did you suddenly agree to them? Count Yolande protested loudly.
"Lord of the City, since Baron Freeman has agreed, I think you should also see the shape clearly. If you insist on your own opinions, it will be difficult for everyone to misunderstand. There was a threat in Anthony's words. (To be continued......)
