Return countdown: 39 minutes and 17 seconds

After participating in the invasion of the Kingdom of Brunay against the invasion of Merguigne, the rebellion of the Olmuz, and the invasion of the Duchy of Lubercius and the Duchy of Ostrode, the peaceful Olmuz was finally able to temporarily relieve himself from the busy reconstruction and repair work today. Not to mention the distance, almost everyone in the city of Orts was full of smiles - after all, this was a celebration banquet, and most of them had also played a part in the battle to defend Orz, although they couldn't really show their faces at the celebration banquet of the nobles, but they still had a sense of honor.

Lyudmila, who received the news, was also a little surprised, and she was not so repulsed by this "celebration banquet".

Get ready and head towards the central square in the north of the city.

Olds, North Square.

Knowing that a celebration would be held here, the focus of Orz's restoration shifted to the scattered area that had been damaged during the battle, and within two days it had been completely renewed.

Not only that, but the nobles who received Lin Xuan's invitation took out their pockets one after another and took the initiative to offer a lot of gold coins, and up to now, the layout of the entire central square can be called extremely luxurious.

When Lyudmila came to the scene, she saw such a scene.

With a pursing of his lips, he immediately threw away his previous thoughts, and one can imagine how much damage it would have to deal to the morale of Olmuz if the scene in front of him was spread by the civilians of Orz.

Desperately fighting for victory, while we are still trying to heal the scars of war, the nobles have begun to enjoy it.

Thinking of this, the girl's mood was even worse.

―――――― Split ――――――

"Are they all there?"

"Three more were resigned because they were wounded in battle"

“…… The past has dealt with them."

"Yes"

Turning around, with his back to the sun, he looked down indifferently at the staggered scene below, and the corners of his mouth grinned.

(Lin Xuan...... Do you really want to do this? ）

(Didn't you say it's okay not to talk in your heart)

(I'm sorry, but...... ）

（…… Rest assured, it will be over soon, and when the time comes, your wish will be granted)

―――――― Split ――――――

Lyudmila frowned and looked at the nobles below with a little dissatisfaction, but due to the particularity of her status, she couldn't say anything.

Zhan Ji commanded the country, and the nobles ruled the territory, and the relationship between the two was just as Lin Xuan had conjectured at the beginning, not so much a vassal, but an alliance, and mandatory orders, except for paying taxes, were almost all dead letters, and even when the nobles were asked to send troops to fight against the enemy, there were many people who disobeyed the law.

Last time, Lin Xuan used the name of rebellion, but in addition to many prominent nobles, some were imprisoned in the dungeon of Olds, and they should also be released......

The battle queen who sat on the high throne thought alone, but she didn't know that the nobles she wanted to release had already been "free", and it was the highest degree of "freedom" - death.

Time passed slowly, and the nobles ate what they should have eaten, and they said more or less what they should have said, but the main owner of this celebration feast, Ness Isser, still did not appear, and the nobles went from calm at the beginning to irritable and dissatisfied now.

"Who does that traitor really think he is......"

"It's a big shelf—"

"If it weren't for ......"

The whispering and cursing in a low voice spread little by little.

Just when the earth was about to be completely covered by darkness, the setting sun pulled out a long black shadow behind Lin Xuan and appeared in front of everyone.

"Ness-sama"

The nobles put on the masks of smirking and greeted them, and the previous irritability and dissatisfaction seemed to be just an illusion.

Lyudmila stared coldly at the scene below, if it weren't for her original promise, I'm afraid she would have left the table regardless of everyone's faces, in the end, even the original promise was very weird, no matter what the reason, it was impossible for him to hand over the Olmuz inherited by his mother to others, let alone even Lalvis-

The sunset completely fell, and the pitch-black blade was swallowed up by the deep darkness, and all that could be felt was the ticking sound of blood dripping.

"Ness...... Adult...... "The gorgeously dressed man's eyes widened in disbelief, as if he wanted to see what kind of expression the person in the shadow in front of him was, killing himself......

Draw out the night strike and point forward.

"Kill"

Shadows leaping out of the darkness rushed into the crowd, and with the harsh grinding of blades unsheathed, a carnage began.

Leapfrogging the crowd of screaming and running away, he came to the blue battle queen.

With an angry and cold expression, the blade of the gun pointed straight at Lin Xuan.

"Is that what you're for?"

Mira, who is angry, is also cute......

The feeling of brokenness in my heart almost drowned me out.

(How long has it been...... Is this what feelings...... ）

With an undisguised smile: "Yes, as long as these nobles are cleared, Olmuz will be mine"

Outright nonsense, not to mention whether Gistato's will allow an outsider to control Olmuz, the inhabitants of Olmuz alone have decided that they will not agree, even if it is a jade burning.

But these were questions that the angry girl couldn't think of, and the carnage below had almost made her lose her basic judgment. For her, these nobles may displease her, but they are the foundation of Olmuz, which her mother left behind, and if there is a fault line in the nobility of a country, there will only be chaos.

Without saying a word again, Zhan Ji only expressed her determination with her actions - absolutely not allowed!

The sword was raised, blocking the slash of the blue spear.

In the dark night, sparks flickered.

"Don't you want to wait even a little time?!" The girl stepped on her feet, and sharp icicles burst out from under Lin Xuan.

The sword swept and severed the unformed icicle, avoiding the girl's stabbing.

Shaking his head slightly: "I don't have time......"

"I don't know what I'm making that promise for—" The ice mist swirled around the spear, forming countless narrow blades of ice that pierced the night in a short period of time, making a piercing sound.

Draw the other blade at your waist and lower your center of gravity.

(Roundabout Strike-)

Sharp sword qi splattered out, making a crisp nail bell sound when it came into contact with the ice blade, echoing in the dark night.

The girl dodged backwards, and the three-meter-long black sword qi sank into the hard bluestone slab ground, bursting into a crack half a meter thick.

"But I never thought to go back - why?! Ness! ”

The body is stagnant.

He lifted his head, which had been lowered, and let the blade of the spear glow with ice blue light pass through his chest.

"Ahem...... Got it...... Call me Lin Xuan......"
