Chapter 147: Dean's Change
When the train arrived in Ambra, Egret and Nina headed straight back to the palace. Although the princess'www.biquge.info s private trip is a big political event, there are only a limited number of high-level people who can question the egret.
For example, Master Alice, who is now smiling and seems to be thinking about how to play with the egret.
Being stared at by a master, this kind of pressure will never be felt if you don't experience it yourself. With such a sense of crisis and helplessness all the time, I am afraid that if my mental endurance is a little worse, I am afraid that I will be forced to faint.
"At the time of the trial, I knew that you were a daring boy. But I never thought that you would be so bold. Alice said narrowly, "Abducting Your Highness and eloping, you are the first Guardian Knight Ambra has ever done so." β
"Lord Alice, don't you joke less!" the egret covered her face, her voice helpless. "Do you think I can control Her Highness Nina?"
"Master Alice, this time I'm going willful. It cannot be counted as the responsibility of the egret. Nina stepped forward and spoke.
Alice pouted, "Your Highness's fault will naturally be discussed by the noble council, but it is almost your coming-of-age ceremony, and there are a lot of things to prepare." Even if you want to persuade Your Highness, I'm afraid it will be after the coming-of-age ceremony. β
The egret sighed when he heard this, but was stared at by Alice.
"What I'm saying is that Her Highness Nina doesn't have to accept persuasion, but I didn't say that you don't have to accept punishment!" Alice glanced at the egret, "There is no law to persuade Her Highness Nina, you are not very qualified as a guardian knight." It seems that it is necessary to give you another short period of education and training. β
"Cut. Egret pursed his lips, "Looks like you're not going to let me go." β
"Well, who told you to be speechless during the trial? I remember it vividly!" Alice laughed, looking at the egret as if she were staring at a lamb to the slaughter.
Although she was more worried, Nina returned to the palace and could only return to the dormitory according to the rules. The egret belongs to the management of the Knights, and if he is to be punished, Nina can't interject, so she can only watch with a little worry as the egret and Alice leave.
The two of them walked a few hundred meters, and after confirming that Nina could no longer hear the two of them, the egret spoke, "What the hell is going on?"
Alice gave the egret a strange look, "How do you know that something is happening? Maybe I really want to teach you a lesson?"
"If you really want to teach me a lesson, the general will also issue a clear order from there. Besides, the thorn flower badge on my chest is not an ornament. If you want to educate me, your identity and conditions are not suitable. Egret made a stupid look and looked at Alice silently.
"Looking at your cleverness, I knew I was right to look for you. Alice smiled, and then became serious. "Dean, there's a big move!"
Egret's brows jumped, the Dean Empire has been doing things on the border all these years. This is nothing new, but in any case, it is a few small moves in the border area. It will not affect the overall situation of peace between the two countries. But now Alice says that Dean has made a big move, so it's definitely not a good thing.
"The 3rd, 9th, and 11th Divisions of the Dean Empire have gathered in the border area of Ambra. In their country, they also implemented a total wartime news ban. Now I don't know what's going on inside. Alice's expression is not very good-looking, she is in charge of Ambra's external intelligence investigation, and now that the Dean Empire has made such a big move, she does not even have a clear information on hand.
"Didn't there be any signs before the Dean Empire?" Bai Egret asked with some curiosity, "If there is no corresponding news and action in the entire country before, it is impossible for such a decision to be made overnight." β
If you want to go to war, that's not a trick. Without the support of the people, the support of the great nobles, and the gathering of sufficient logistics and armament, it was impossible to go to war. So the act of moving troops without warning and gathering on the border is not necessarily an attack on Ambra.
"If a foreign war is impossible. Could it be a coup d'Γ©tat?" asked Egret, "for fear of internal political disorder or something, and make a defensive posture in advance?"
"There is no heir dispute in the Dean Empire, their emperor is in his prime, and the only heir, Mark, is also active and ruthless. Alice frowned and sighed, "The general has also taken this into account before, but after judging the situation, he also thinks it is impossible." β
"Left is also impossible, and it is not possible. Then there is only one explanation for the act of mobilizing the army. The egret thought for a moment and said slowly.
"What's the explanation?"
"The personal conduct of the corps. This was an independent move of divisions in the border areas. This also explains why the common people do not know that the nobles are blocking the news. But in this way, I am afraid it is more difficult to explain why the other party is doing this. β
A few divisions can't fight a war between countries. Especially without the support of the Empire. If Egret's judgment is correct, then who can control these divisions and make such a misleading move. This problem is more serious.
Even if the two of them are puzzled, this problem can only end here. As the heir of the empire, Nina will be declared legally succeeded by the noble council at the coming-of-age ceremony, and the succession ceremony will be carried out.
This is no smaller than the scale of the National Day or the Garden Trial, Ambra's Imperial Empress, but the real power of the emperor who has the control of the war. Ambra's military is strong, and none of the surrounding countries want to offend it. When the time comes, I am afraid that the other five empires will send representatives from their own countries to attend Nina's coming-of-age ceremony.
In this situation, the domestic security is enough to give the knights a headache, and there is no way for the general and Alice to arrange more manpower to investigate this matter.
"But the previous words have been spoken, and there must be a punishment. It's better to be like this, your strength as the guardian knight of Her Highness Nina is still a little lacking, before the coming-of-age ceremony, you should be my sparring partner for a while. Alice casually uttered horrible words.
Egret's face darkened, "Are you sure you don't want to take this opportunity to retaliate? β
Alice laughed and bowed. "The size of my heart, won't you see for yourself?"
The snow white on Alice's chest shook the egret's eyes. He forcibly turned his head away, "Eldest sister, do you dare to be a little reserved." β
"Well, what a boring child. Alice pouted, "Compared to Silinni, you don't have enough skills now." It's rare to have a master who will guide you personally, and you should be grateful. β
Guidance? Is it abuse? Are you sure you can do what you can say with your discipline? Are you a "ex-convict" master who shot at a group of titled elites in the Garden Trial, regardless of his identity?
However, Alice revealed another message. "Sirini is strong? I remember she was six years older than Nina, well, that is, she should be about my age by now. β
"When she disappeared, she was already an elite professional with half a foot in the field. In the past few years, with her talent, I would not be surprised even if she became a master. Alice spread her hands, "Although she is born with a certain advantage in martial arts compared to humans, but she doesn't have enough effort and understanding, and it is almost impossible to stand on the edge of the field at that age." β
"I don't want to compare myself to my predecessors like this. However, as Nina's guardian knight, I don't want to be looked down upon. The egret looked up at Alice, "Alright, Lord Alice, you managed to convince me. I'm going to give it my all these days. β
Alice smiled, using a man's ego to satisfy her sadistic desires, this was not the first time she had done such a thing. Egret has always been under Nina's combat power, and as a guardian knight, especially a male guardian knight, this feeling is actually very bad.
Even though the egret had never said this, Alice could sense the egret's eagerness to increase her strength. Fortunately, everything is going well for the egret in the other world, otherwise if he encounters a lot of difficulties or persecution at the beginning, maybe in a hurry, the egret will go astray.
Within a week of that, the egret began a regular door-to-door abuse journey.
Alice is worthy of being a master, although she is young, she is already a senior master of the heaven and earth level, and the realm contains the power of heaven and earth around her body, even if the physical strength of the egret is oppressed by the power of heaven and earth, it seems small. Even if he tried his best, he couldn't escape a few tricks and would be beaten all over by Alice.
The growth of the egret these days is not small at all, and in the battle, it is basically in a state of liberation from soul devouring. Especially with the help of the support system, Egret gains a lot of experience from Alice in every day of fighting. With the rapid improvement of the realm, the egret gradually began to comprehend the subsequent knife techniques, broken marks and broken iron, which were the results of this time.
The Fracture is a fierce attack that condenses the battle qi and strength, and performs a mid-range battle qi strike in a violent form. Broken Iron is a melee attack that knocks battle energy into the opponent's body in an esoteric way, causing internal destruction.
If it weren't for the upcoming start of Nina's coming-of-age ceremony, the egret would even want to fight like this forever. Even if she is scarred by Alice's abuse every day, the egret is willing to do it.
"You have reached the pinnacle of the legal level. Brat. The day before Nina's bar mig, Alice finally concluded at the egret. "If nothing else, if you want you to be able to integrate all your own strengths, and have your own understanding and control of everything around you, then naturally, you will be able to advance to the realm level. β
"I didn't expect it to be so difficult to advance in the field. I thought that with the power of Soul Eater, I could easily cross this stage. Isn't it because of the fairy blessing that Nina has been promoted to the realm at this age?"
"The projection sword itself is a martial art of mastery skills, and it has an innate advantage in the field of achievement. Alice laughed, "Your understanding is a little narrow, Nina is a real martial arts genius." You're not close!" (To be continued.) )
