The war in the southern continent, which had attracted worldwide attention and lasted for nearly two months, finally came to an end three days ago.

Although the entire human world is still calm for the time being, all well-informed high-level people can feel the unusual atmosphere that permeates the air.

The myth of invincibility that has been shattered for more than a hundred years will ultimately bring to this continent? No one can predict.

Bekele, the capital of the king of Phalletis, the Queen's residence and office in St. James's Palace.

In late autumn, everything withers.

But the rare bright sunlight illuminated the entire study belonging to the queen, and the mood of the owner here was as bright as this sunshine.

"Your Majesty,

With the blessing of Goddess Banlai and your glory, it is with great pleasure that I convey to you the good news of our great victory, on behalf of the 14,856 valiant officers and men who participated in this war.

According to the results of the General Staff Statistics, a total of enemy annihilation was achieved in this battle

Captured Commander-in-Chief of the Army Ricard, etc

May you always be young and beautiful, and the Holy Light of the Goddess shines on Pharytis.

Your Loyal Knight: Elvis"

In fact, the result was transmitted through the spiritual world as soon as the naval battle ended. This time, the letterhead was a handwritten letter from Lieutenant General Elvis, the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, and it contained various details of the war that were absolutely unknown to the outside world.

As the lord of Lieutenant General Elvis, the queen was given first-hand information. After that, the monarchs of the participating countries will also soon receive battle reports from the front command. Of course, there is absolutely no part of the Kingdom of Ilya

The queen held the thin letter and read it over and over again, even though she already knew the outcome of the war, but at this time, when she saw the detailed battle reports on the letter, there was still an indescribable brilliance on her face.

In the end, the king-level expression management also completely lost its effect, and I couldn't help but high-five and praise:

"Well, Elvis, they've done a great job! Syrius's reign at the head of the kingdom will not last forever. ”

Isabella Phaletis was over sixty years old, but because of the long life of the Grand Knight and the good condition of maintenance, Her Majesty looked like a graceful and beautiful lady in her thirties.

However, coupled with the majestic temperament of the king, people dare not look at it directly.

"By the way, Wella, I think Brigadier General Jialuo seems to be your guardian knight, right?"

Her Majesty looked up and asked her daughter, who was also sitting upright in the study.

It's just because in the battle report sent by Lieutenant General Elvis, this name that can't be bypassed at all appears too many times.

This newly promoted brigadier general, who made her remember vividly, was supposed to be stationed in the New World, but because of an accident, he joined the battlefield in the Southern Continent.

After entering the war, there is a series of big enough to make anyone shine:

Penicillin, the "miracle drug" provided by the kingdom, saved the lives of countless wounded soldiers;

Kill the deputy commander of the fleet of Hilius, "Steel Knight" Kungang Teta;

thwart the interception of the Grand Knight Griffitz and lead his ship to escape (the escape is already a great achievement);

The "Song of the Siren" with the entire fleet inflicted heavy damage and destroyed the quasi-legendary battleship "Longnose Shark", and he himself was the inventor of the "Song of the Siren";

Under the containment of Griffitz by Vice Admiral Elvis and other three great knights, he almost single-handedly destroyed the quasi-legendary "Red Maple" in the Cylius fleet;

On top of that, the "Psychic Network" and the "Misty Silver Lantern" launched by it almost had a dimensional-reducing effect on the Sylius fleet, and with unknown extraordinary weapons, it detonated the ammunition depot of a total of twelve enemy ships;

Not to mention, he was also the proposer of the "Overlord Disqualification Plan" and the specific executor of the New World.

"Yes, Your Majesty! Brigadier General Galliot is one of the most illustrious young men I have seen in all my years.

And you may not have noticed that the same Colonel Gehr who fought to the death in the 'Treasure Tree Bay' during the war against the Steel Knight was actually Brigadier General Iscaryot's uncle and one of his few relatives.

Including Colonel Gehr's son, Elantra who is currently studying at the Royal Naval College, all the men in the family joined the war and did well.

Colonel Ger is now the wife and daughter of Brigadier General Gehr, and is very much loved in the wounded barracks. ”

Livina is at the end of the point, as long as her mother has this question, at least Aven's rank of major general is already secure.

The war has just ended, and the merit order is still to come. But make a good impression on the queen in advance, and the final reward may even go up a liter.

In the battle report that was also sent to the military headquarters, Gehr and the already aged Ricard were both defeated, one young and strong, and the other experienced.

It's not that big.

However, in the end, Gell managed to drag the reinforcements to arrive, and the peak knight Griffitz couldn't stop them in the middle of the run, but it was not the slightest difficulty in leaving the commander, who was no longer known for his martial arts.

"Well, outstanding talents are rare, and what is even more rare is their family's loyalty to the kingdom, as well as the courage and responsibility of being a soldier and a military family.

It's not easy, I remember them.

Levina, remind me to draw up a special award for their whole family as an example for the kingdom!"

From the time she succeeded to the throne, Isabella Phaletis was determined to lead Pharytis in his quest to lead by example, not to be dressed for clothes, not to be greedy for food, not to build palaces, and even to the limited supply of wine in the court.

Under her leadership, none of the magnates in the entire royal capital dared to go too far out of line.

Every penny saved will be invested in the construction of the country, especially the development of the steam industry and the construction of the navy.

The female king and her ancestors knew very well that the future of Pharytis as an island nation could not be separated from the sea.

As a "wise gentleman" with lofty aspirations, the talents who can assist her in realizing her political ideals will be looked down upon by her and she will be extremely tolerant.

This was the case with Princeton, the archwizard who once belonged to her, and so was Evan, the guardian knight who now belonged to Levina with great merit.

"Wella, you will convene a council of the Imperial Council for me, and discuss with the ministers and councillors the follow-up to this victory.

And the "Overlord Disqualification Plan" is speeding up, we have to race against time with Syrius, and the days ahead will never be peaceful. ”

The military was only responsible for the war, and a series of complicated matters such as the signing of new treaties, the restoration of colonial management, and the possible subsequent reactions of the Syrius people all required the kingdom to negotiate and settle them.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After finishing business, Livina did not leave, but brought up another private matter.

"Mother, one more thing, I'm ready to be promoted before the end of this year. ”

"Have you passed the Kingdom Guardian test, are you ready to take any path?"

"Justice!"

"It's fine for your sister to do this. ”

The invincible armada, which had been crisscrossing the seas for a hundred years, was defeated?

This thunderous news reached Syrius, and the hearts of many people collapsed, and it was simply the collapse of faith.

Philip II, who was sitting alone in his study, had no strange expression, although the Armada in the Southern Continent had suffered heavy losses. But for the world's largest power, which is in its heyday, it is far from breaking its bones.

Moreover, most of them belong to the ecclesiastical faction in the military.

The reformer, who had already seen the dangers of the kingdom, believed that only by digging up the rotten sores and allowing the pus and blood to flow out could Sylius's body be strong again.

"However, the confidence and morale of the people cannot be depressed like this, everything now has to be compromised for the crown of the emperor, and the wealth of the Frisian Habsburgs accumulated for thousands of years!"

Knock! Knock!

An abrupt knock at the door interrupted Philip II's musings, and his brows furrowed slightly, but he also knew that it could not be the maids who dared to disturb him:

"Come in. ”

"Your Majesty!"

A girl wearing a small princess crown, a beautiful long dress, and silver high heels, with an overly slender figure, walked in with a pot of fine black tea from the Peacock Islands.

It was none other than Her Royal Highness Mary Theresa, Princess of the Habsburgs, who was already engaged to Philip II.

Although, there are still three months left for the wedding.

But the Habsburg princess did not return to the Kingdom of Frissia after the engagement.

"Teresa, why are you here? Don't you have to go with the maids to prepare for the wedding?"

I was a little surprised to see Philip II coming.

Thinking that his fiancée was instructed by his cheap father-in-law to come over to inquire about the news of the defeat of the Invincible Armada, he couldn't help but feel a little impatient in his words.

The slender princess put down the tea set in her hand and made a graceful dress salute, explaining her intentions, but it was not what Philip II thought:

"Your Majesty, I have received a letter from my father. ”

Teresa bit her lower lip, which was obviously lacking in blood, and whispered in a gnat-like voice:

"After our wedding, he will make an exception to restore the tradition of choosing emperors and pass on the throne directly to you!

I did hear the news of the Armada earlier, don't you be upset, okay?"

The girl's father, the head of the contemporary Habsburg family, King of Frisia, Emperor of the Holy Lothar Empire Maximilian. No matter how weak and sickly he is, this old fellow, who has always been stubborn, is unlikely to give up his crown before he dies.

He was already ready to instruct the Great Wizard Andúon to use extraordinary measures, but at this time, he turned around.

It is not difficult to guess that the only person who can influence the current emperor is the princess in front of him.

So, in addition to the interests represented by the princess, Philip II finally began to face up to his fiancée herself for the first time.

Although Philip II himself said that "no matter how beautiful or ugly, tall, short, fat or thin, the person he wants to marry is not actually her, but the crown she represents"!

But as the princess of the Holy Lothar Empire, this Highness Mary Theresa certainly can't be ugly.

Because each royal family has at least one ancestor of the fourth rank of knighthood, as long as it does not get out of control, the higher the transcendent rank, the more extraordinary the wisdom and appearance, and these traits are also inherited by their descendants.

The heirs of the royal family have been ten and a hundred steps ahead of others since birth, and they can naturally become official knights when they become adults, how can ordinary civilians compare?

Sorry, there really is a kind of prince in this world!

The princess, who had just turned twenty years old, had a slender and pale appearance like paper, and her pitiful eyes were very much in line with the current aristocratic aesthetics. People naturally ignore the fact that this is also a second-order official knight, and a strong desire to protect them arises from the bottom of their hearts.

Even Philip II's tone couldn't help but soften, who could be cruel to such a fiancée?

"Teresa, rest assured, our son will be the next Emperor!"

As if she couldn't stand the aggressive eyes, the slightly pale princess lowered her eyes slightly, not letting the other party notice that there was a wise light in her eyes flickering slightly.

Obviously, who would be truly innocent of a girl who grew up in a family environment like the royal family?

A war stirs up the continent.

Catch-up who lies on his back, reformers who work hard, and people who show weakness

In this big era, I don't know who is the real winner who can have the last laugh.
