(Today's double shift, this is the first shift)

When she said this, there was a strong confidence in her eyes, and she shot towards Tasia, Elio, the old magician, the old man in fancy clothes, and others, this attitude expressed how serious she was.

Elio's expression did not change in the slightest, neither sarcasm nor anger, nor any clear expression of support.

The old men in fancy clothes, Isidor and Boris, were silent.

At their current status, it is taboo to express their stance without permission, especially when the commander and the princess of the empire are present at the moment.

"Actually, I have a better suggestion."

Princess Tasia slapped her palms with a black whip and walked to Natsu's side:

"This expedition to the New World resulted in heavy losses for the Empire from top to bottom; Eight of the twelve nobles came, and only three of Elio and the others had died, and almost all of their possessions and families had been transferred to the New World, leaving only a few empty shells in Harlem's domain. ”

"In this case, it becomes necessary to rectify the upper class, which has been secretly decaying; In addition, we also need some candidates who are both famous and powerful to supplement, the setting of the twelve nobles is the old system handed down from ancient times in the empire, and it is not just placed there to look good, they also carry an important mission. ”

Speaking of this, the whip in her hand stopped, looked at Xia with a pair of starlight eyes, and said a proposal that surprised everyone present:

"Princess Xia, on behalf of the royal family, I officially send you an invitation to join Harlem and become a candidate for the twelve nobles, are you willing?"

Xia never thought that she would suddenly say such a thing.

In addition to being shocked, I couldn't help but make a difficulty:

His goal is not to become a nobleman, although the top nobles of the strongest country in the continent are very attractive. But compared to the reason why she came to the New World this time, it is not so important.

"You don't have to worry about identity."

Tasia thought she was worried about the Kingdom of Westminster, so she stretched out her whip and pointed at Isidor and Elio:

"Their ancestors were not originally Harlem, and they were even enemies of the empire for a time, leading many armies to fight against Harlem."

But then both of these heroic figures chose to join the empire and became one of the twelve nobles. Although you are a woman, I have two older brothers......"

She pursed her lips slightly:

"It makes me unhappy, but you can pretend to marry Brother Joshuel or Brother Lorraine, of course...... You can't be a queen, you can only be their side room, so that your status as a princess of a small country is no longer an issue. ”

"Your Royal Highness Princess, this ......"

Elio's face changed.

Later, Isidor and Boris also gasped and secretly called unlucky:

How can you not die, but I heard this kind of royal secret!

In case someone leaks this in the future. The two of them are clearly the best suspects.

"I want you to think about it."

Princess Tasia's originally quiet eyes became a little sharp:

"If you become a nobleman of the empire, it is a matter of course that you will be given a large territory, and you will not have to go on a conquest yourself; This time, there are people who don't know whether they are alive or dead to make a move against the newly built city-state of the Empire, and the Faens side will definitely send the old guys of the Sage Council over. At that time, all obstacles will cease to be obstacles, and the Empire's occupation of all of Frestia is just around the corner. ”

Hearing the name Frestia, Xia's heart was shocked.

However, she still expressed her doubts in a timely manner, and asked out loud with a curious face:

"Frestia? That's what it sounds like a person's name. ”

Tasia didn't answer her question. Tapping his palm lightly with the whip, he stood there and looked at her for a moment. Turned and walked to his resting place:

"If you're really interested, you can come here and find me later...... I'll answer your questions. ”

After she left, Elio and the others gathered around Duragal's bed and checked the magic heart transplanted in his chest again, it was already beating normally, but it would be of much use in the future. It will depend on the luck of this new great sage.

"There aren't many inventories of such magical organs in the Empire, as they can't be replicated at all, and they're all alchemical products excavated from ancient ruins; The structure and craftsmanship are unimaginable, and even the old thing of Isidor almost blew up his kennel when he tried to make a fake. ”

The old magician explained to Natsu the origin of the magical heart.

"Princess Xia. Although what Princess Tasia said was a bit bizarre, it was actually the best solution, and I could tell that she didn't want to be your enemy. ”

Isidor came over and struck the old magician, almost knocking him into a fight, and his hat fell off; Then he lowered his voice and said:

"No country wants to share territory with others...... And I can tell you one thing, my ancestors and I of Commander Elio were both defeated by Harlem, and the countries to which we allegiance were fully incorporated into the empire, and Her Royal Highness the princess said this to you without warning, I hope you can think about it. ”

After saying goodbye to Elio and the others, Xia hesitated for a long time, but decided to have a good talk with the eldest princess of the empire.

Whether Westminster is incorporated into the Empire or not, this kind of thing actually has little to do with her, and once Harlem is overwhelmed by large troops, I believe that no one will dare to resist at all, and there will not be much killing and bloodshed; The royal family and ministers will even take the initiative to appease the entire people, and the evolution will be successfully completed.

The only thing that will cause trouble for the empire is the attitude of the charismatic kingdom.

However, as far as she knew, the Order would not choose to start an all-out war with Haring, at most it would just negotiate some compensation matters, and then disgust this old opponent in terms of public opinion and propaganda.

"This time the activity in the New World involves the main mission, and I am imperative; Even if I do fall out with Harlem, I will not hesitate to do so, but before I can do so, I must find enough money to survive. ”

"A safe base area, a fertile land with enough people to develop and self-sufficient, a strong army...... These are the most basic things. However, I have not met even one of these three requirements. ”

She mentally rehearsed the possible consequences and began to walk towards Tasia's room.

On the way, some graceful maids took the sword from her back, and several tried to take off her clothes, but she avoided them lightly.

"I'm just talking to you princesses, and I don't need to bathe and change clothes."

How could she be so stupid that she fell into the mouth of a tiger, and the godfall dagger on her waist was not honestly handed over. Instead, they were brought inside.

"You're such an impolite girl."

Tasia, dressed in a light veil and with slightly wet hair, was lying on her side on the bench, pouting when she saw Natsu's dress.

"I never thought it was polite to talk to people without a shower."

Natsu walked into the room and put the Dagger on the table, found a chair for himself and sat down.

Bringing the dagger in was just a sign of her toughness, so as not to fall behind in the negotiation at the beginning, not to fight with the princess of the empire, who actually posed no threat to her.

"Why so far away? Come to me. ”

Tasia folded her legs lightly and said in a coquettish voice.

From this angle, it can be seen that she wears only underpants and a corset under the light veil, and the fabric is of a very narrow kind; More than 95% of the skin on the body is exposed, and the light white gauze can't block the view at all. But it adds a bit of hazy temptation.

"This woman, although it is a lily attack...... But I know very well what is most striking about my body. ”

Xia's concentration has strengthened a lot recently, and he is very wary of this kind of object that seems to be friend and foe, so he doesn't show the appearance of hunger.

She propped up her arms in the chair like an ignorant girl, supported her chin and admired the scenery opposite, and sat there steadily, not moving.

"Why can't you come? I remember our relationship wasn't so cold. ”

Princess Tasia placed a hand on her slender leg and began to caress her fingers slowly from the bottom to the top.

As it passed through the hem of the tulle, the hand lifted it up intentionally or unintentionally. It wasn't until the pale pink pants were exposed that they gently slipped back and rippled in front of the bench for a long time.

"I'm!"

Half a day passed. Seeing that Xia still didn't react, the imperial princess finally went berserk.

She gritted her teeth and stood up from where she was lying, without even wearing shoes, and pounced directly towards Xia.

Xia's first reaction was that she wanted to make a move, and was about to get the dagger on the table, when the voice of the black-clothed little Lori sounded in her head:

"She has no murderous intent. Master. ”

So she withdrew her hand and let the other man pounce on her.

Tasia still has a trace of nobility and elegance now, and she looks like a hungry woman. The thirsty resentful woman began to tear up her clothes.

"Didn't you want me to come here to answer your questions?"

Natsume watched in amazement as she ripped off a few buttons of her swordsman's suit and planted her head on her chest. Lying there greedily breathing in the scent.

“…… Smells good. ”

Tasia buried her head in her chest and said, her voice sounding intoxicating:

"You obviously have sweat stains on your body, and you have a lot of dust on your hands, so you must have not washed your body in days, right? Why does it smell so good? ”

"My physique is more resistant to dirt...... Probably. ”

Seeing that she didn't make any further moves, Xia didn't push her away, and replied scratching her face with her right finger.

"Hehe, that's rude, like those homeless people in taverns."

Tasia's face arched her chest a few times, and finally moved her hand to her pants.

"Wait."

Xia didn't let her come this time, grabbed her two hands and said:

"What the hell did you call me here? Not to negotiate the territorial ...... of the New World"

"Don't say those things, my silver-haired baby."

Tasia gave her a meaty name:

"Isn't the territory of the empire big enough? I'm a princess and not a prince, so why should I care about such a thing? (To be continued......)
