As a childhood sweetheart who grew up with Xiao Yueluo, Rita naturally knew the situation of her girl, so after seeing the expressions of the two, she immediately made up the pictures in various situations.

"Since you can't find anyone, let me go."

"You?!"

After Ronald and Navis glanced at each other, they both looked at Rita in disbelief, but after seeing their reactions, Rita frowned a little dissatisfied: "What?" Dislike me for being too weak? ”

The two of them sweated wildly and shook their heads.

Weak? Can this lord be called weak? Is there anyone else in this world who can be called strong?

"That's it." Rita spread her hands and nodded in satisfaction, but she was satisfied, but the other two were worried again.

"Miss Rita, I appreciate you for helping me, but ......"

"Stop! Stop! Stop! Interrupting Ronald's unfinished words, Rita made a pause gesture on her hand.

"I said......" Despite the puzzled gazes of the two, Rita clenched her fist with one hand to the corner of her mouth, and coughed lightly at the same time, "Aren't you afraid that the group of mercenaries in the military camp in the suburbs will not help?" It's easy. ”

"Do you have a way?" Navis was suspicious, it wasn't that he questioned the ability of the person in front of him, it was really that Xiao Yueluo trained that group of people so well that the final result was that except for Xiao Yueluo, they didn't buy anyone's account at all, even if someone from the mercenary guild came forward, of course, although it could take the form of employment, but ......

The ghost knows what Xiao Yueluo did to that group of people at the beginning, all of them have greatly improved their strength and mercenary level, except for a few who are still at the silver level, most of them have become gold-level mercenaries, and there are also many king-level mercenaries, and many of them have jumped directly from the silver level to the king level, and what is even more terrifying is that the original king-level has now become legendary mercenaries. Although it is only a one-level gap, the fact that no one has broken through this class for hundreds of years shows how difficult it is to obtain the title of this level.

But thinking about it this way, it can also explain why only Xiao Yueluo can send such a group of people at will, after all, the person who can reach the strength of Eudora and them, if they want to make further progress, it can be said that it is basically impossible, and now they have only been trained by Xiao Yueluo for a short period of time and advanced directly, and they are not alone. What's more, Xiao Yueluo does have a kind of magic in this person, the courage to follow behind it, and the special temperament that invisibly attracts the attention of others, at least he has never felt it in other people.

"There are no absolutes, and the solution is what people think, as long as the problem exists, then there is a solution in theory, isn't it?" Rita hooked her red lips, as a good young man in the 21st century, she has always believed in the theory that "there are more ways than difficulties". Of course, I don't believe that it can't be done, after all, with her previous situation, if she has the slightest idea of giving up, I'm afraid she won't wait for the day when she has a soul to wear.

"The specific plan is ......"

"This is not bothered by His Royal Highness the Second Prince." Glancing at Ronald who was standing aside, he continued without panting at all, "You just need to hand over the command of this side to me, including all the troops and generals of the western defense line, of course." ”

The two of them were silent, and after a long while, Ronald slowly spoke: "You can use the group of mercenaries in the barracks at will, but the one in the back is ...... I can't say yes, unless you get the approval of the one on the throne, even I don't have the right to decide all this. ”

"Oh, that's not what you're talking about?" As she spoke, Rita took out a piece of parchment that had been folded several times from her waist pocket and threw it on the table, while Ronald and Navis looked at each other, and after opening the parchment and looking at it, they fell silent again, but this time it was more strange than before.

"May I ask how you got this thing?" Navis twitched the corners of his mouth and looked at Rita a little speechlessly, he didn't doubt the authenticity of this appointment, after all, he believed that even if the person in front of him was bold, he probably wouldn't fake this kind of thing. But in addition to the exclusive seal of the Olis royal family, the personal seal of Elias Olis is also superimposed. Of course, if it's just the one in front, he doesn't feel anything, after all, even he can see it often, but the back ...... Truth be told, this was the second time he had seen Elias's seal, and the first time he had seen it was when they had taken Dalena out of the palace years earlier.

"That's how I got it." In the face of Navis's inquiry, Rita shrugged her shoulders very indifferently, but after being stared at for a while by the faint gaze of the two people in front of her, she raised her hands in surrender, "Okay, in fact, I made an agreement with your majesty. ”

"What agreement!?" Isn't it the conquest of the continent or something?

At this moment, both Ronald and Navis are a little nervous, although neither of them is a pacifist, but they started a war for no reason, not to mention anything else, just psychologically, I still feel a little uncomfortable, after all, except for war maniacs, few people are happy about the arrival of war.

"Don't look at me like that, it's like I've done something nasty." Rita was a little speechless, but finally said the content of her agreement with Elias, "Actually, it's not a big deal, didn't I say it before?" I'm going to add some chaos to the Duchy of Otto's side, of course, if I can, it's not impossible to destroy it, but in this way, all the territories on the Duchy of Otto's side will be included in the territory of the empire. ”

Rita said lightly, as if she was just stating an ordinary trivial matter, but both Ronald and Navis knew that the person in front of him had this ability, especially after getting the help of the empire, destroying the Duchy of Otto could basically be said to be a sure thing, and the factors that could play the biggest role in this depended only on whether Rita wanted to or not.

"You want to rebuild the Duchy of Evel?" Suddenly, this thought flashed through Ronald's mind, and at the same time, he asked this doubt in passing.

"The lost territory must be regained, but the Duchy of Evel will be rebuilt...... It sounds exciting, but by now, there's no point in doing something like this, right? ”

"......, girl, you don't look excited at all."

"I said, can you be normal? One is a prince and the other is an earl, what's all the fuss about this? ”

There was obvious dissatisfaction in and out of the words, and both of them were a little embarrassed after hearing Rita's words.

"Well, that's true according to your words, but you really don't have the slightest intention of restoring the Duchy of Evel?" Aren't ordinary people supposed to cling to their rights? Why does this Lord seem to be ......

"No, well, it's still a little, but ...... I think my life is pretty good now, I used to be in the palace because of my health, which led to a lot of things I couldn't do, but now I have this opportunity to go around no matter how I say it, not to mention that the palace is like a cage, isn't it? The corners of Rita's mouth hooked up, but no matter how you look at it, the smile is a little bitter, "Small, there is no freedom at all, what is called a high place is unbearable?" This was the case when I was a princess, and if I really restored the Duchy of Evel and became queen, the situation and the life I would have had would only be worse than before. ”

The girl's expression fell into the eyes of Ronald and Navis, and it also made it difficult for the two of them to doubt the truth of the girl's words, and it was a great challenge for anyone to give up their low-hanging rights for the so-called freedom they wanted. Even Ronald's uncle, that is, the man who gave up the throne at the beginning, didn't really do this, after all, as a former prince and a current prince, even if he was willing, the group of people around him would not allow it, after all, he gave up, and it was not only his own interests that he gave up.

Therefore, power is like a mental drug, even if someone can resist the temptation of power, but people who can really have ideas like Rita and have the ability to escape from the whirlpool of power can basically be regarded as a rare existence.

"Forget it, traditional aristocrats like you probably don't understand what the value of freedom is." Seeing that the two of them were silent and did not speak, Rita muttered softly again, but soon raised her head after patting her cheek, "Anyway, that's the thing, I also showed you the appointment certificate, this time in addition to coming to say hello to you, there is one more thing to ...... Your Highness, you must remember what you promised me, right? ”

"At the beginning?" Ronald was slightly stunned, but the next second he reacted, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"I don't know if there is any situation, but since I got this appointment letter, I have felt a little uneasy, so I ......"

"I see, I'll keep an eye on the palace side, Miss Sophia is my little sister and me's lifesaver, so please rest assured."

Rita, who had received someone's promise, quickly picked up her letter of appointment and left the villa satisfied, still from the window, of course.

"Your Highness, Miss Sophia's ......"

"Needless to say, let's add some more manpower, and you can also help me keep an eye on the palace from time to time, it shouldn't be too peaceful recently."

"I see."

On March 4, 366 in the imperial calendar, following the start of mutation, mutant beasts in various places rioted for the first time, and countless casualties were killed and injured in the empire; Four days later, after receiving the exact news, Ronald and others began to organize troops to support various places, and the turmoil in the entire Islamic continent began.
