When Athena calmed down and thought about it, she actually felt that Svein was much more useful than Duke, and at that time, she was indifferent to Svein, and it was also because Qiwuhai said in front of her that Svein was going to rebel, but it's not right to think about it, if Svein really wanted to rebel, he could have done it a long time ago.

Athena's mother died early, and her mother also used Svein, who was still young at that time, and if Svein wanted to usurp the throne at that time, it must be the best time, so Athena summoned Svein and asked him to discuss the countermeasures of the war.

Seeing Svein again, he is different from before, his body was produced by countless trivial things before, and his body was very thin and weak, but now he eats well at home, wears warmly, and does not have to worry about fighting, his body naturally keeps up, and his improvement is much better.

"Your Majesty, I wonder what you are looking for the old minister to come to?" Svein was very respectful to Athena on the surface, but in fact it was the same thing, the previous empress was a little girl in front of him, and if you want to say that Svein can worry about it, it is only this country.

Athena immediately lowered her posture, the last time she treated Svein like that, now people still respect her as always, think about it, I'm really sorry for him, such an older person, you can be your grandfather, and be humiliated by yourself in front of so many people, if you are yourself, maybe if you invite you, you will get sick.

"We Noxus have always taken the initiative in military battles, but in the past few days, I actually received a battle report from the front, saying that we were repelled by the thieves of Demacia, and their drones were not destroyed, and now there are more than 10,000 sergeants who have died for drones. ”

Svein smiled: "Your Majesty, isn't General Duke discussing the war and drones in the headquarters day and night? Now I don't have any official position on me, and I'm old, and I wanted to open a lot last time I was empowered, you shouldn't ask me about this, but General Duke, he is your reliance." ”

"You're laughing, Duke has a few pounds and a few taels I know best in my heart, where can he compare with you, it's also that I checked the people a few days ago, followed the random advice of the Seven Martial Seas, and didn't let you command this battle, so it's okay, from now on, Svein you will go and take Duke down, it's still the same, you are the commander of the army, let Duke be your deputy, without your help, I feel so insecure." ”

Svein laughed in his heart, Duke thought that he could get rid of the court by buying off the Seven Martial Seas? That's not there, Duke used to be a deputy by his side, and he felt that he had learned a lot of things, but he still hadn't learned the real essence, such a thing as war, but not something that can be learned by looking at it, but to practice it yourself, although Duke has been taken with him many times before, and it was just for him to do some insignificant things, but the big responsibility was not handed over to him, and Duke saw that he was winning, and he saw that he was moving his mouth, but he didn't consider other factors, and he deserved to lose.

At this time, Athena asked Svein to come out of the mountain again, and she must have been a little reluctant, because she was used to hearing about the victories, and occasionally the news of the defeat was very harsh, and Duke had no way to reverse the situation, so she used herself as cannon fodder.

"Your Majesty, my body has not recovered yet, and besides, I don't know any news from the time the war has been going on until now, if I am asked to lead the army now, I am afraid that I will not do well, please forgive Your Majesty for a while, let the old minister slowly. ”

Athena said in a hurry: "Now is the time for the life and death of the two countries, you don't have to shirk, Duke has won the vanguard battle so far, and it is only the first battle, and now it is so compressed, I don't know how much news of defeat is waiting for me later, you are the old minister of Noxus, everything must be focused on the overall situation, I have never begged anyone in my life, just ask me to beg you, okay?"

"The minister is afraid, the minister can't accept it, and he can't afford to ask for this word. Svein said smugly.

Now that all the strength of the country has been used, if this battle cannot be won, the position between us and Demacia will be reversed, and then Demacia will be the power of our head. ”

"Your Majesty, I don't want to, but the old minister really can't do it, please ask another Gao Ming, the minister will retire first." ”

....

Svein's departure Athena did not stop him, she had already lowered her posture and begged him, if she even had to stop leaving, she would be no different from a slave as an empress.

It's just that Athena is speechless, obviously Duke often follows Svein on expeditions, even if he learns it from scratch, he can learn it, how can he give him such an answer now, I really can't figure it out.

Duke didn't work hard, this is impossible, the last time he went to the Supreme Council, Duke was in the staff with red eyes to discuss the war with those generals.

In fact, in this world, if you work hard, you will gain, and if you work hard, you can succeed, Duke is doing useless work, in terms of fighting, Duke's ability is really much worse than Svein, the two are not the same level of existence at all, and it is not normal if you don't lose.

As soon as Svein arrived home, he saw his henchmen and generals come to his house, including Draven, and Darius, as well as some heroes who did not make alliances, more than twenty of them.

These are the backbone of the battlefield, and what Duke brought over was to play at home, which is not a topic.

Except for Svein, Darius has the highest status here, and said to Svein: "Lord Commander, Her Majesty the Empress has invited you to the palace, what did she tell you, is it because of the defeat in the battle ahead, she is very disappointed in General Duke, and wants to replace you?"

Draven smiled, stroked the axe coiled around his waist, and said obscenely: "Our Noxus face has been thrown into General Duke's people, and the defense line will be compressed when you hit Demacia, which is simply impossible for you, my lord, except for the accidental intrusion of the drone, my axe has been silent for so long, I have long been hungry and thirsty, and I can't wait to go to the battlefield to fight." ”

The other generals did the same, looking forward to the news of Svein's return to power.
