Chapter Fifty-Six: From the Far East

"I see, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you! Can you get me out of this horrible place. "After hearing Ping'an's explanation, Joanna realized a little bit and realized her previous misunderstanding of Ping'an, so she quickly apologized to him and asked him for help.www.biquge.info

"Uh... Your Royal Highness Princess, I don't blame you, but I also blame my acting skills for being too good, oh no, I should say that my deception is too good! Of course, there is no problem in taking you out, but it will take a little longer. Ping An saw that Joanna, as a princess of a country, even took the initiative to apologize to herself, which made him a little unexpected, and suddenly made him a little embarrassed.

"Haha, since you are so good at deceiving people, then I will call you a liar in the future!" Seeing Ping'an's embarrassed appearance at a loss, Joanna originally looked aggrieved, but at this moment she suddenly laughed again, and her expression changed as quickly as her face changed.

"Whatever you want!" said Ping'an helplessly.

"Do we need to wait a little longer, what if the terrible insect comes?"

"Xiaobai is hibernating, and when it wakes up, it will be able to fly. If any insects dare to come, kill them all, I'm more terrible than those insects!"

"Isn't it, you're really so powerful? By the way, why have I never seen or heard of the magic scroll you used against that man in black just now, at that time I also felt that I had lost my perception and control of the magic element in a short period of time, and it was really amazing to have such an effect!"

"Of course I'm amazing, otherwise how can I kill that man in black! You don't have this magic scroll you said, of course you haven't seen it!"

"There are many famous magicians in our Aerys Empire, and there are even many magic scrolls at the level of a god in our family, and I have seen them with my own eyes, how can it be that we don't have any magic scrolls in your Aprin Empire, you must be lying to me!" Joanna did not believe Ping'an's words.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, I really didn't lie to you, this kind of magic scroll came from the far east, you really don't have it!"

"Isn't the ancient book saying that the Far East is the territory of alien insects, how could anyone make such a magical scroll there?"

"Then I will tell you secretly, there is a mysterious tribe in the far east, they have not been discovered and invaded by insects, and they live in isolation. At the same time, the strong people there are good at making this kind of magical magic scroll with the effect of banning demons for a short time within a certain range. ”

"And how did you get this scroll?"

"Uh... Well, it's because the people there want to avoid being discovered by insects one day, which will lead to extermination. Therefore, I specially sent someone to our Western Continent to select an inheritor. And I, who was their chosen inheritor, naturally learned their method of making the Forbidden Demon Scroll. However, I must swear that I will not teach the making of this scroll or sell it until the token they have given me is broken, and that I will only use it as a last resort to save my own life. Seeing that Joanna was so serious, Ping An had no choice but to casually continue to make up a story that didn't sound too flawed.

"Why wait until the token is broken to teach?" Joanna was fascinated by the story that Ping An casually made up for a while, and continued to ask.

"As long as the token is broken, it means that their mysterious breeding ground hidden in the far east has been discovered and destroyed by insects, and it is likely to be exterminated. Only then will I be able to teach it to the outside world according to the original oath, so as to ensure that the unique skills of this mysterious tribe will not disappear from this world, now you understand?

"I see!, how did you get chosen as the inheritor by the mysterious tribe of the East?"

"Your Royal Highness, how many questions have you asked me, is it now my turn to ask you, as we just said!" He has sacrificed a lot of brain cells in order to make up this story, and if he keeps rounding up this story that he made up casually, I'm afraid he can write a novel. So he made a decision and decided to remain mysterious and not give her a chance to continue asking.

"Uh... Okay, you ask!" Joanna also realized that she seemed to be asking too many questions, not to mention that this kind of thing is usually not something that can be said to other people.

"I don't have many questions, you answer them one by one. First question, why were you hunted down by the man in black?"

“...... I guess they might be trying to arrest me so that I can coerce my father into doing something detrimental to our Andrews!" Joanna told Ping An about her journey from the Holy Land of Madias to the territory of the Iris Empire and then her own judgment.

"Why do you think it's the anti-royal forces within your empire who want to capture you?"

"It's just... Just by feeling. The combined power of those forces is too strong, if they are completely united, it is enough to overthrow the throne of the Aerys Empire ruled by our family, but those forces are also dissatisfied with each other on weekdays, and it is not so easy to tie up in the same boat. For a long time, in order to maintain the rule of the entire Iris Empire, our family has divided the permanent territories of the previous anti-royal forces, and at the same time renounced all domination over their territories, so that those territories have been in a state of autonomy of the various feudal forces, on the condition that they openly recognize our family's actual rule over the Iris Empire. My father, as the nominal king of the Aerys Empire on behalf of our Andrews, began to worry about these things more than a decade ago when I was very young. Therefore, I think it must be one of those anti-royal forces within the empire, and only they have the strength and courage to dare to do such a thing. Joanna said as she thought about it.

Ping An has also studied some of the history of this world with Master Kane since he was a child, and naturally he has also heard about some long-standing disputes within the Aerys Empire. Those powerful family forces that have lived in the Aerys Empire for a long time have had a glorious history, and being the king of the Aerys Empire is only a short time in comparison, and they have deep backgrounds, so they will naturally not easily succumb to the other side. Now that I have listened to Joanna's analysis, I can't help but admire a little, no matter how old she is, she has learned so many political games from the side of her father since she was a child, and she can analyze her own judgment based on these things in the past, and in the sound of peace, these analyses do not seem to have any loopholes and problems.
