In the era of royal power, it is a matter of course for the son to inherit his father's business, and even the kings of some countries in order to grasp the power and throne, it is not uncommon to write the theory of descent into the law, who is willing to give up their country to outsiders, even if the situation is erosive, even if the enemy is current, even if it can be rescued as long as it is let go, but more kings and those in power would rather choose to let themselves be buried with the kingdom in the long river of history than let go of others.

These four words are easy to say, but the king who can do it can probably count them on two hands.

As a god above mortals, Ishtar didn't care what the kings of the world's kingdom thought of him, the goddess only cared about whether the people she had chosen could satisfy her.

"Are you doubting my abilities?"

"No one is perfect, Augusta! You may be a good king, but that doesn't mean you're definitely a good father. ”

Augusta's eyes became fierce and replied without hesitation: "I will never allow my successor to become a failure, the overlord once chose his adopted daughter Alfina to be the empress because he did not leave an heir, so if my child really lives up to my expectations, I will definitely not mercilessly hand over the empire to a fool to rule, but choose another person." ”

Augusta's words were so powerful that he had little hesitation on such a subject, which was taboo for kings and rulers, that anyone who listened to it would think that if it did, Augusta would do it.

For this moving statement, Ishtar still shook his head calmly: "Life and death depend on each other, because of this law I can't allow you to become a thousand-year king immortally, for this I am sorry Augusta." ”

The "Millennium King┉┉" has been abolished for the benefit of immortality. Augusta did not have any dissatisfaction, but replied with a look that was even better: "Hmph! Although sometimes I envy the elves who live a long life, but when I really achieve the position of king, I find that if I want to be a good king, I must know how to enjoy pain, and if I want to be happy, I can only be a foolish king, if I want to be a thousand-year-old king, it is estimated that it will only take half the time I will not be able to suppress the desire in my heart and become a foolish king, and then I will cling to the power and refuse to let go and become a part of those kings who have died in history." ”

"You have self-knowledge, Augusta. That's one of the reasons why I chose you. ”

Ishtar nodded, but then his tone changed: "Now I believe in you, and I believe that you can choose the most suitable heir for you, but what about the heir of your heir? Four generations┉┉Even if Quintis chooses Alfina to make the Pralas empire stronger, and Alfina chooses the best heir to continue the glory of Quintis, in the end, someone will still make mistakes, and will make wrong choices that lead to the destruction of a huge empire built by generations, how do you ensure that your heirs will never make mistakes for generations. ”

"I┉┉I can't┉┉"

For a moment Augusta replied in a low tone, in his own opinion, that the problem was unsolvable. It is impossible for any king to guarantee that his descendants will never make a mistake, unless!

After a moment of silence, Ishtar's beautiful golden eyes revealed a vast divine might: "Augusta! I will not promise you endless benefits with rhetoric, assuring you that the Empire of Carl Cermen will always be protected, and it is only evil gods and demons who will do this. What you want is a unified empire, and I want an era of unity, an era where you can keep moving the whole world forward, if your empire can't move the world forward. Then I will abandon the Carl Thaemon empire and choose a new candidate to continue to move the world forward. ”

For a moment, Augusta's expression became complicated, and he obviously wanted to refute it, but he couldn't say anything. Because I know very well that as the goddess said, the successive emperors of the Karlssermen Empire cannot always be virtuous kings, and one day the foundation of the empire will definitely decay and collapse after the birth of the foolish king, even if he asks the goddess to blindly protect such a Carlssermen Empire, then what is it is just to hold a rotting corpse in his arms.

"Will you accept my offer?" Ishtar looked at Augusta with beautiful eyes, waiting for his answer.

“┉┉┉┉”

The atmosphere in the room was strangely cold at the moment, and Augusta closed his eyes and clasped his hands. Judging from the almost white joints in his grip, Augusta was struggling violently inside, and Ishtar was not in a hurry and just waited quietly, as if he could wait even for thousands of years.

Struggling back and forth several times in the depths of his heart, Augusta weighed the gains and losses little by little, or it should be that this is no longer a condition that can be measured by gains and losses. As a mortal, he doesn't have such a long life and vision to examine the layout of the goddess, obviously compared to himself just to restore the glory of the former overlord era to the Carl Sysemon Empire, the goddess Ishtar sees more long-term and profound, if this is a battlefield, then he only values the victory of a battle, and the goddess values the victory of a battle.

Thousands of years later, Augusta Branis may have already become a part of history, what will become of the future Carl Sulman Empire, this is not what he has to consider, what he has to do now is to restore the Castle Sulman Empire to the strength of the former overlord era, and what his descendants have to do is to pass on this glory from generation to generation, everyone has their own mission in each era, and they cannot interfere with any choice made by their descendants, and their descendants have no right to take responsibility for the decisions they make today。

"I agree to your request, Goddess Ishtar!"

Finally, Augusta slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes were clear, without a trace of turbidity and hesitation.

"Very good Augusta, you are the first person I have chosen for more than two thousand years, and I am sure you will not let me down. Ishtar smiled brightly and said with relief: "After the Holy See baptizes you, you will become the first king in history to receive an oracle, and in order to show my promise that today I will leave a messenger by your side to guide you, protect you, and assist you┉┉"

It's also spying on me┉┉

Augusta said secretly in his heart, this kind of thing is known to both himself and the goddess fighter, and it is not a big deal to come to this point anyway.

After explaining all this, the goddess also stood up and seemed to be about to leave, when suddenly Augusta suddenly said, "Please wait for the goddess Ishtar!"

"Do you have any questions?"

"I┉┉I still have a question┉┉"

Augusta paused, and after a while, he asked cautiously as if he had let go: "I don't want to blaspheme your threat, but I really don't understand that you, as a god, have a vast power that mortals can't reach, even if the overlord of the past was assisted by that unknown mysterious power, but why can the overlord do such a blasphemous thing, why don't you punish him like him?"

The first goddess Ishtar fell into a short silence in front of Augusta, and her perfect face was still calm, but a strange luster flashed in her beautiful golden eyes: "There was a war two thousand years ago, a war between the gods, when I defeated my enemies but was injured and had to return to the gods to recuperate, and Quintis really had the opportunity to commit those blasphemous evil deeds at this time, are you satisfied with this answer?"

"I'm sorry ~ Goddess Ishtar. Augusta replied with some trepidation.

Ishtar quietly glanced at Augusta: "Hmm~ There is one more thing I need to ask you. ”

"Tell me straight. ”

"I want that elf you left in the palace, okay?"

Aisha!?

Augusta was stunned, first the black dragon wanted to catch this little elf girl, and now even the goddess Ishtar, who is the source of faith in the eastern part of the continent, wants her, what is the identity of this little elf girl?

"Of course, goddess! she's yours┉┉" But Augusta doesn't have time to think about it now.

After buying this little girl from Gelkite for 10 million miles at the beginning, he originally wanted to use her to make a deal with the Holy Capital, but a lot of things happened next that made Augusta feel like he had bought a bomb that would detonate at any time, and after the black dragon attacked, Augusta didn't even dare to execute and discard the girl, what if the black dragon didn't find Elsa this time and came again next time? If Aisha is still in her own hands, she can send this girl out and see if she can have some relationship with the dragon clan by the way, if Aisha is gone, the black dragon who can't find people will dismantle the entire Carl Sulmen Empire.

Although there are feathers given by angels to fight against the black dragon with the power of angels, if the black dragon keeps coming to disrupt the Carl Cermen Empire, it will not be able to bear it, and the chamber of commerce and the trade team will choose to come to a dangerous area targeted by the black dragon to trade!

Now that the goddess Ishtar wants it, Augusta is naturally a favor to give away the hot potato in his hand.

"Then rest well, Prince Augusta, and I will give you an oracle myself after the baptism. ”

The goddess smiled slightly, turned into countless points of light, and dissipated into the air.

Augusta suddenly felt his senses plunge into darkness, but after a moment they brightened again, and then Augusta found himself still sitting at his desk, as if he had just fallen asleep and had a dream, and it felt like hours had passed, but the cup of coffee brought by the maid was still steaming.

It's not a dream!

Unlike dreams, Augusta can clearly remember every word and sentence he said to the goddess, everything is real! )
