Nogs is outside the Demon King City, which used to be a rich field, but now the land has turned to dust, and the demons who live here are nowhere to be seen.

"After her father's death, did Cecily become the ruler of the royal city?"

Nogs half-knelt on the ground and picked up the gray land, looking at the royal city of the Demon Realm from afar.

Although the land outside is barren, the royal city seems to have become much more prosperous, and it can be said that there is an endless stream of human creations entering the royal city through the city gate.

"No, Her Highness Sehiri is running the city, but she has not announced to anyone that she has inherited the position of ruler."

A watchman said as he stood behind Noggs.

Nogs has been guarding the border of the Demon Realm all year round, but he has planted a lot of his own eyeliner in the royal city, and when he heard the news of his father's death, his first reaction was that his sister had used some despicable means.

But the information brought back by the spies was very bad for Noggs.

Two of the four dukes seemed to be on Cecily's side, and with the blizzard in the Frost Plains stopped, Nogs didn't have time to take a break from the strife in the royal city.

"Not yet? What the hell was she waiting for. ”

Nogs let go of the dusty ground in his hands, and a month was enough for Cecily to turn the royal city and the entire demon world into her thing.

At present, Cecily and Qiao Xiu's actions have made Nogus unable to guess, and this time Qiao Xiu's invitation to Nogus is not sure whether it is true or not.

But... The Land of Frost shows no signs of sending troops, and Nogs wants to take this opportunity to sort things out about the internal affairs of the Demon Realm.

The first thing to do is to go to Nolan and negotiate with the king of the land of frost!

A dark green portal opened beside Nogus, and General Voss escorted an old man in blue with shackles in his hands to appear in front of Nogus.

After entering the Frontier Fortress, he proved his identity with his magic and the sage insignia he carried.

The Man in Blue is one of Nolan's Seven Sages.

"It's... This is the corrosion of something out of bounds. ”

The Blue-Clad Person's first reaction after exiting the portal was to fall to his knees on the same barren ground as Nogus.

"Something out of bounds..."

It wasn't the first time Nogs had heard the term, Qiao Xiu had warned him a long time ago that the real enemy was not the humans of the Frost Country, but the master of the Grey Mist.

This warning was never taken to heart by Noggs.

The Blue-Clad Man rested his hands on the ground, his hands wearing shackles that sealed the magic power, but the azure inscriptions flickered on his arm, and the inscriptions spread all the way to the Blue-Cloaked Man's cheeks.

The flaming spear in General Voss was pressed against the sage's neck.

"Stop." Noggs said.

"The land of your country has died under the corrosive influence of something outside the boundary, but beneath the corpse lies a vigorous vitality." The man in blue said in disbelief.

"Your Highness."

General Voss awaited the next order from Noggs.

"Go to the portal to Nolan."

Under this order, General Voss grabbed him by the arm and threw the blue-clad man directly into the portal.

Nogs also entered the portal, and when he stepped out of the portal again, he arrived at a warehouse on the edge of the abyss of sin.

The demons who were pushing the cart for distribution saw the appearance of Noggs, and they were all stunned.

Nogs didn't tell Cecily that he would return, and Nogs didn't pay attention to the sluggish demons, and walked directly into the portal to Nolan under the guidance of General Voss.

Embassy of the Land of Frost.

Qiao Xiu rarely wore a formal suit today and sat in the conference hall of the Frost Country Embassy.

Shayle, the noble king of the Land of Frost, was sitting at the top of the council chamber, and many other nobles who were not familiar with Qiao Xiu were sitting in the council chamber.

Qiao Xiu and Shayl haven't seen each other in reality for a long time, and they usually occasionally talk about homely topics on the Magic Net Newsletter.

Shail's impression on the text message is that Johew is a little girl who loves to post love bags, but today in reality... The little girl, who always spoke with an owl expression, became a queen who was so cold that she was a little unkind.

There is such a thing as murderous aura, although Qiao Xiu has been trying his best to avoid the topic of the Frost Country, judging from some of the information revealed by Shail, she has been pacifying the civil strife in the Frost Country during this time.

As for how many people were killed during the pacification period, Qiao Xiu has no way of knowing, but seeing that those elderly nobles obediently submitted to the young king who had just been in power for less than a year, Shayl still had a little political and political means.

As Qiao Xiu sighed at Shail's iron-blooded wrist, a text message popped up in front of Qiao Xiu's eyes.

The text was from Shayle and was 'a little nervous'.

The moment Qiao Xiu received this text message, he looked at Shail, who was sitting at the top, and Qiao Xiu couldn't see any signs of nervousness in her at all.

'I'm your negotiating partner now, is it really good to expose your current mentality to your opponent like this?' ’

Below, Qiao Xiu clicked on the virtual keyboard with his finger to edit the message and sent it to Shail.

‘？ ’

This short symbol is followed by an owl tilting expression that Qiao Xiu has seen many times.

'Don't put a question mark, I'm now representing the Demon Realm in this negotiation. ’

'Negotiation is the thing I'm not good at, and it's still the Demon Realm dispute that the First King hasn't resolved for years, so I'm really nervous right now. ’

Shayl didn't seem to figure out Qiao Xiu's position at all, although the Demon Realm was to negotiate peace with the Frost Country this time, the conditions for peace negotiations needed to be discussed between the two sides.

In terms of conditions, the two sides must have some arguments, and Qiao Xiu, as the representative of the Demon Realm, is in a sense Shail's enemy.

But the 'main general' of the Land of Frost took the initiative to talk to the enemy before the confrontation came, saying, 'I'm afraid I won't win.' ’

'This...... You can gain the trust of the people and nobles in the country, and you should be pretty good in terms of eloquence, but you don't think it yourself? ’

Qiao Xiu inquired about Shail's reputation in the Land of Frost at this stage, which can almost be described as a national hero, Shayl is deeply loved by the people and admired by some nobles, and the other part is fearful.

'I was only responsible for quelling the rebellion, and I rarely spoke in front of the people... General Amter told me, 'If you don't know what to say, you might as well be silent, it will make you look more majestic.' ’

Shayl followed the message with a smug owl thumbs up with its wings.

‘……’

Qiao Xiu didn't know how to answer at this time except for issuing an ellipsis, and at this time, Qiao Xiu also vaguely heard the discussion between the nobles behind him.

"The hundred-year-long war is finally coming to an end today, and His Majesty Searle has done something that no matter how great a hero of our country is, he can't do."

"Those demons must be afraid of His Majesty Shail, so they will take the initiative to choose to negotiate peace."

Stop, when I ask your king the topic of 'settle the dispute between the Demon Realm and the Frost Country', the king of your country is still eating ice cream! What's so majestic about that.

Qiao Xiu quietly listened to the compliments of the group of nobles behind him, perhaps in their opinion, this peace meeting must have been facilitated by Sheil.

The peace between the Demon Realm and the Frost Country, the centuries-long war has brought too much trauma to the two countries, and many kings in the past have tried to make peace with the Demon Realm, but the final result has been a failure.

This kind of feat will be written in the history books of the Land of Frost in the future, and Shayl is estimated to be another generation of virtuous kings or something.

While Qiao Xiu was thinking about whether the peace talks could go smoothly, Qiao Xiu received a new text message.

'Where's the location?' ’

The owner of this text message is Noggs.

'Embassy in the Land of Frost, brother, I remember sending someone to pick you up in a magic car. Qiao Xiu immediately replied.

'That noisy machine made by man? Sitting on it made me feel very uncomfortable, like I was cursed. ’

That's not a curse, it's just that you get motion sickness, okay!

'Brother, you ......'

'Isn't this the most prosperous city in human beings?' How come there isn't even a coachman? ’

The carriage was eliminated by Nolan's post station half a year ago! Brother! Now it's popular to drive magic guide cars.

Qiao Xiu covered his face a little weakly, this is probably staying at home for I don't know how many years, and then he saw a butterfly and suddenly asked, "What kind of bird is this?" 'That type of person.
