"The Spark Mercenary Regiment has sent someone! They said they could take me and you away from Mallotte tonight, what do you think?" Fan quickly pulled Avi, who had just returned home, into the room and locked the door. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Why leave Mallot?"

"You fool! Because the present situation is irreparable! Don't you understand! Mallot's peaceful days are over, and what a trouble... Something like this again..."

Fan told Avi what Mills, the deputy head of the Spark Mercenary Regiment, had delivered. The mercenaries in Mallotne had already begun to prepare, either leaving Mallote and moving to nearby cities and villages, or staying in Mallot, taking advantage of the terrain and waiting to see what happens. All the mercenaries, including Mills, smelled war, because King Byron's illness changed everything.

"As soon as the news of King Byron's ascension comes, the Kingdom of Salins will immediately become a kingdom without a king," Stitch said as he rummaged through the cabinets, even taking out the long-useless, dust-stained catapult iron gun, "Prince Amsoil is only a nominal prince, and he is also a temporary prince in the mouth of King Byron, and he has a large number of supporters like the other two princes, and no one will think that Amsoil will be able to ascend to the throne smoothly after King Byron's ascension."

If King Byron dies immediately, the war for the throne and control of Mallotte may break out immediately, and if King Byron remains sick in bed as he is now, the situation will gradually become uncontrollable, and unless King Byron recovers immediately and stands in front of everyone to stabilize the situation, the current situation is almost irreversible... Hey, hey, are you listening! I've been thinking about it all afternoon!" Big-Nosed Fan had changed into leather armor and put the catapult iron gun behind his back.

Avi sat on the edge of the bed blankly, "I heard it all, we still have to come, we may not be able to hide..."

"If you can get out of the way, as long as you give up on Stitch... The Spark Mercenary Regiment can take me and you out of Mallot, get out of here, and go wherever you want!" Fan looked at the door and said in a low voice.

"I—" Avi didn't make a complicated struggle in his heart, because he knew that he would definitely not choose to run away, "I won't leave with the Spark Mercenary Group, stay with Stitch." ”

"I knew you were going to be like this, you hopeless idiot!"

"You're not going to run away alone, are you?"

"Get out! and you're trying to pull me into the water..."

Stitch's "protection" was fulfilled that night. Mallot's Imperial Diplomat sent a team of guards to Stitch's house and led them to the Imperial Diplomat's residence. Fan also followed behind Avi, who said that he couldn't follow the Spark Mercenary Group because he was too late, but Avi was very familiar with Big-Nosed Fan. While Avi was still thinking about Felisti, the other party had already appeared in the mansion.

"I'm also a person of status," the red-haired girl was standing by the window on the second floor of the mansion, watching the scene of Mallotne's desolation, "Although it belongs to the Theoguna Empire, the people of the Empire in Mallotne are helping each other. On the contrary, you are a native of the Kingdom of Sahlins. ”

Avi smiled embarrassedly, "I didn't expect things to suddenly get so bad, I didn't expect King Byron's condition to be so serious... On that day in the central square, I thought that the three princes would focus on their own trials, but I didn't expect that the situation was completely different now. ”

Van and Coral also walked up, they were of course familiar with Felisty, "Didn't the Imperial diplomats think about evacuating Mallot?

The "situation" that Fan refers to is exactly what he saw on the road. On the fifteenth day after King Byron was ill, the patrol force on the streets of Mallotte doubled again. As Fan walked towards the diplomat's residence, he saw only a few civilians still walking in the streets, but they were all very cautious, and at the same time their eyes were wide open, vigilant about their surroundings. Although this is not martial law, anyone with a little brain can see that King Byron's condition is very serious, so serious that it affects all aspects of Mallot.

Stitch brought the Imperial diplomat with him, and the diplomat nodded to Coral and Felisty respectively, "Everyone, the capital of the Kingdom of Sallins is now at a critical point in time when war may break out at any time, this is not alarmist, because the latest information we have received shows that Queen Rosemand gave an order just now... Expel all three princes from Mallotte at the same time and ensure the safety of King Byron. ”

Avi could feel his hands tremble as he translated into sign language to Sango, the terrible civil war between the kingdoms was already approaching, and Queen Rosemund's orders had apparently quickened its pace.

"The day before yesterday, the government was still controlled by the queen and Prince Amsol, but this afternoon, Queen Rosemand suddenly announced something that no one would have expected - Queen Rosemand was pregnant with King Byron's child, and was about to give birth, if it was a boy, it would be the fourth prince. ”

Seeing the frightened expressions of Avi, Fan and the others, Stitch immediately pretended to be calm, he raised his hands and clapped his palms gently, "Okay, then I know the queen's next move, she will definitely announce King Byron's personal order to let her child become the prince of the kingdom." Otherwise, she wouldn't have had to expel those three princes from Mallot, after all, those three princes and two princesses were not her own children, and as a mother, she must have hidden selfish intentions!" Stitch analyzed it with a straight face, and the Imperial diplomat immediately showed an expression of admiration.

"Lord Stitch's words are very reasonable! The President's Commander Gronos and the Intelligence Secretary Heck are already on Queen Rosemande's side, and they have given an order in the evening that they are forbidden to leave the city, and only the three princes and two princesses will be able to leave Mallot, and it is estimated that martial law will be officially imposed from tonight!"

Avi, who had just missed his last chance to leave Mallot, looked back at the window, and this place could see a certain school building of the Kestrel Academy-those house ghosts, those who called themselves the Ghost Knights, what would they do at this time? What could they change as individuals without any power?

Felistie curled her long red hair with her fingers, "In other words, the internal forces of the Kingdom of Sallins have now been divided into four groups, which are the forces of the three princes and the queen. ”

The diplomat nodded in response: "That's right, as long as King Byron does not appear in front of the people, Mallot's situation will only get worse and worse." Even if Prince Amso has been determined as the temporary prince, the other two princes with the support of real power will not recognize Amsol's status from the bottom of their hearts, and the third prince who claims that he will not compete for the position of prince will also be involuntarily. ”

"Ke... Where's Miss Christine?" asked Avi suddenly.

"I don't know, but the Marquis Roberto of the Duchy of Dramain is very clever, and he has stationed his army on the outskirts of Mallot, and he should have an army of nearly thirty thousand men under his command. Judging by the alliance between the Duchy of Dramain and the Kingdom of Sarins, Roberto could claim that this was to protect the safety of Mallot, and to protect the safety of Miss Christine. At the same time, for the Duchy of Deraman, they can do far more than we in the Oguna Empire. ”

Avi and Fan were assigned to the same room, and Avi could hear staccato footsteps as he slept at night. Those who walked outside the door were in a hurry, and it seemed that the situation about Mallotte was changing rapidly, and the steady diplomat was afraid that he would lose a good night's sleep.

When the new day came, the worst did not come, but the anxiety and uneasiness could be seen in the eyes of the servant who brought the breakfast.

"The first bad news of the day, Prince Walter and Prince Amsoil have left Mallot," Stitch chewed on a piece of cured beef, "Except for Prince Walter's claim that he would respect the decision of King Byron and Queen Rosemund, Prince Bradley and Prince Amso, who were stationed outside Mallot, did not make a statement, and Prince Amsoil rushed back to his home city of Bone Ruins overnight. ”

"What about the two princesses?" asked Coral in sign language.

"One is gone with the eldest prince, and the other is still in the palace, and it seems that Princess Winlith is determined to tie up with her twin brother. ”

Avi walked to the wall where the map of the Kingdom of Salins was hung, a huge map of the major cities of the Kingdom of Salin, and even the situation on the border. Stitch and Felisty also approached, and they told Avi about the distribution of the three princes' forces.

Prince Bradley's sphere of influence is mainly part of the territory west of the Kingdom of Sallins, and the areas that have been ruled by the Great Prince are all happy with the Great Prince, while the surrounding areas and noble lords have never expressed their position, but they also have a close relationship with the Great Prince.

Prince Amsok's sphere of influence is mainly in the north of the kingdom, and he also has his influence around the capital - the capital Mallote has always been the area controlled by Prince Amsoe, but the sudden actions of Queen Rosemund, the President and others have changed everything, as evidenced by Prince Amsul's overnight return to Bone Ruins City.

The little prince Walter had little power, but his good reputation and the favor of King Byron would allow him to gain the support of most of the nobles in a short time. Especially since the Byron king did not like Prince Bradley and Prince Ansoil was an illegitimate child, it was believed that the conservative nobles in the south and east of the kingdom would soon choose Walter as their favored prince.

"No one dared to think about these things when King Byron was still healthy, no one dared to say them," the imperial diplomat also walked over and looked at the delicate map, "but now everything is different, and no one dares to guarantee that King Byron will be able to recover his health." Choosing a prince to side may be the wisest choice, and those of us trapped in Mallotte will have to 'choose' Queen Rosemund' and the child in her arms. ”

Lord Imp shook his head, "No, we in the Oguna Empire must play an important role!"
