"What's so surprising that Steele told you a long time ago, right?" said Sevigny. "I'm no longer Her Majesty the Queen of the Lampari Kingdom, so there's no need to keep this matter a secret. In fact, I should have told you about this earlier, but it has been delayed until now, and when I talk about it, I am actually worried. ”

Xu Yi looked at Sevini blankly, and could only subconsciously ask, "What are you worried about?"

"I'm worried that you won't admit it. Sevigny looked directly at Xu Yi. "I'm sure Raymond is my child with you, because I've only had that intimate encounter with one man of yours once in my life. But don't you know, with your character, you must be suspicious, right?"

Xu Yi was silent.

Indeed, even now, he was not entirely sure that Raymond was indeed his son with Sevigny.

Although in the cooperative research between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the elven clan in the past few years, there has long been a bloodline identification method based on soul magic, which is essentially a deep blood connection, which can detect the parent-child relationship, but Xu Yizong can't pull Raymond to do this identification with him, so he can never be sure.

Seeing the look on Xu Yi's face, Sevini sighed lightly and continued: "Xu Yi, our relationship at the beginning gradually drifted apart, in fact, it has something to do with this, right?"

Xu Yi looked at Sevigny, wanting to admit that it was indeed related, but he couldn't help but nod his head.

After showing through clues that Raymond was most likely his and Sevigny's child, Xu Yi had some prejudices against Severny at that time.

In his opinion, the reason why Sevini would have a relationship with himself at the expense of drugs was to be able to have a child who was related to him.

So. This kid will definitely become the king of the kingdom of Lampari in the future. And Xu Yi will inevitably take more care of him because he is his own child. So as to take more care of the Lampari Kingdom.

This has to be said to be a very common manifestation of scheming, and Xu Yi can also understand why Sevigny did this.

But he didn't like it very much.

After roughly establishing this through a private investigation, Xu Yi gradually distanced himself from Sevigny.

Of course, this is not the main reason.

"Our relationship is more estranged because of our different positions. Xu Yi shook his head. "You are the queen of the Lampari Kingdom, you have to think about the Lampari Kingdom in everything you do, and I am the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and I must also think about the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce everywhere. The position is different. Opinions are naturally different, and contradictions naturally occur. I don't want us to end up with ordinary friends, so it's better to see each other less and try to be as business-like as possible. ”

"And now, you're no longer the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and I'm not Her Majesty the Queen of the Lampari Kingdom, can we continue to be ordinary friends as before?" asked Sevigny.

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "If I really don't want to, Steele won't bring you here at all, right?"

"Hey, Xu Yi, it took me a lot of effort to get Sevigny to come here to see you. If you don't thank me, do you want to blame me?" Steele came out of nowhere.

"How could I blame you. Thank you too late. Xu Yi laughed. "Tévigny is one of the few friends I have left, and it's the best thing to have the opportunity to sit down and talk and relive the old days. ”

"Do you think so too?" Sevigny smiled, turned his head to look around, and let out a long sigh: "Actually, when I got here, I realized that I really woke up too late. Life here is so easy that if I had given the throne to Raymond sooner, I would have enjoyed it as easily as you and Steele did. ”

"By the way, Sevigny, I haven't asked, why did you suddenly decide to hand over the throne to Raymond?" asked Steele curiously.

Xu Yi was also concerned.

He thought that Severny would most likely be like Her Majesty the Queen of the British Empire on Earth, who would rule the kingdom of Lampari until the end of his life.

And Prince Raymond may have the opportunity to be the prince of the earth, His Royal Highness, who has been the prince for decades and has not been able to inherit the throne.

Unexpectedly, Sevigny suddenly decided to abdicate and handed over the throne and all the power of the Lampari Kingdom to Prince Raymond cleanly.

"Not suddenly. Sevigny shook his head. "Actually, I already had this idea when Raymond got married. Over the years, I have been cultivating Raymond and getting him more involved in politics and decision-making, just to be able to take over the throne smoothly. And now, I feel that the time has come, and I will pass the throne to him, isn't it normal?"

"No, Sevigny, I know you, even if you had this idea for a long time, but if it weren't for some stimulus, you wouldn't have made such a sudden decision. Xu Yi's tone was affirmative.

Sevini was silent for a moment and smiled bitterly.

"Okay, there is probably only Xu Yi left in this world who knows me best. Yes, I was stimulated. And this stimulation ...... It's also about you and Steele. ”

Xu Yi and Steele were stunned: "What does it have to do with us?"

"Ask your good daughter Freya. Severny laughed. "If she hadn't come to me and told me that Raymond disagreed with me about promoting the space program, and had privately complained that I was too stubborn and had a scruple about him doing a lot of things, how could I have had this idea all the time?"

Xu Yi and Steele were even more stunned.

"Freya told you that?" said Steele, looking slightly annoyed. "How could she run to you and talk like that!

"No, after I thought about it, I thought she had a point. Now that I've lost the kingdom of Lampari to Raymond, I'll be able to do whatever I want. You see, now I'm going to come here to see Xu Yi. Sevigny looked relaxed, but unimpressed.

After that, she turned to Xu Yi again.

"Xu Yi, it seems that Freya is not willing to live a life of peace and security, you have to be mentally prepared. ”

Without waiting for Xu Yi to speak, Steele frowned: "What do you mean by that?"

Xu Yi stopped the questioning Steele, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I know." This daughter's personality has been like this since she was a child, and it would be strange if she was willing to be divided. Of course, with the current situation in the Sainz Continent, Anfen may not be a good thing, is it?"

"That's right. Sevigny nodded slightly. "So I'll hand over the kingdom of Lampari to Raymond, and let him and young people like Freya deal with the mess in the Sainz continent right now. ”

###

It is not an exaggeration to say that the Sainz continent is in chaos.

Although the Lampari Kingdom completed the conquest of the Kingdom of Angela, the follow-up work is far from over.

Now half a year has passed, and some rebel organizations still pop up in the Kingdom of Angela from time to time, disturbing the peace in the original Kingdom of Angela, and also making the Kingdom of Lampari anxious about it.

However, in comparison, the situation facing the Lampari Kingdom is already unusually peaceful, and the situation in the rest of the Sainz continent is only worse.

The southeast corner of the continent.

The United Kingdom of Nozdorm had been on a smooth offensive in the first two years, not only breaking through the royal capital of the Kingdom of Chino in one fell swoop, easily occupying most of the territory of the Kingdom of Chino, but also continuing its offensive to the north, and soon taking over almost the entire vast area of the southeastern corner of the continent.

However, after this, the remaining powers in the southeastern corner of the continent formed a revolt alliance and united the eastern states of the continent against the United Kingdom of Nozdorm Commerce.

In recent years, the United Kingdom of Nozdorm has been in a stalemate with the resistance forces of these countries, and the southeastern corner of the continent and the eastern part of the continent have been in a constant state of war.

In the middle of the continent, since the official start of the war between the two empires of the Candela Empire and the Maro Empire, the war has spread to almost more than half of the land of the Sainz continent.

In the last year alone, the armies of the two empires have engaged more than four large-scale battles with a total number of more than 100,000 people, and there have been more than 100 other skirmishes.

The small countries affected are countless, and the war not only permeates the border between the two empires, but also extends to the entire middle of the continent, covering half of the continent.

However, the two empires have a very tacit understanding, and they have never really mobilized the power of the whole country to enter a full-scale war, but they have always maintained a fighting posture and fought from time to time, but they have never stopped their own development because of this.

Due to the impact of the war, the development of the magic industry on the continent of Sainz has inevitably slowed down, but the military-related industries have achieved remarkable growth.

Especially in the field of military magic machinery, the two empires will come up with new types of military magic machinery every once in a while, showing another breakthrough in their own technology.

At first, this interval may have taken a year or two, but in the last two years, the interval has even taken only a few months.

Because of the pressure of the war, the two empires and other countries on the continent have become more thirsty for technology related to magic machinery, and R&D investment has also intensified.

If in the past ten years of peace, the technology related to the magic industry on the Sainz continent has been developing rapidly, then in the recent years of war, the Sainz continent has ushered in a new magic technology explosion.

On Earth, historians often say that war is the greatest driving force for the development of science and technology.

This is perfectly demonstrated in this world.

It's just that no one knows what the final development will be.

Severny didn't know, and neither did Xu either. (To be continued.) )
