Chapter 183: Seeds
"Your Majesty!" a man in black half-knelt in front of Catherine and whispered: "According to the news from the inside, Faras and Victor will visit Fabia in Cassano tomorrow night, and they are likely to reach some kind of agreement at that time, but the conditions offered by Faras's side are not clear to us now."
Catherine took a sip of bright red wine with a blank face, even though she had recovered her body to a human being, Catherine still developed the habit of eating only some fruits every day, but the life of Her Majesty in the past few days has made her like to taste the most delicious Bordeaux in the imperial capital.
"Got it, go down. Catherine put down her glass and whispered, "Let them come to me in Birmingham." β
"Yes!" The man in black bent down and retreated backwards, although his master was the beautiful queen of the continent, the ideal partner that all men dream of, but he didn't dare to think anything wrong, even if it was just a peek at Catherine, because he had seen a companion who couldn't resist peeking at Her Majesty the Queen, and was burned alive by Catherine in front of them with flames, and since then, Catherine's beauty is equivalent to the sickle of death for these men in black, after all, no matter how beautiful a woman is, she can't compare to her own lifeγ
After the man in black exited the palace, Christina stepped out from behind the curtain. Even by Catherine's side, Christina still wears full-body armor so that she can face all kinds of crises at any time.
"Nana, what do you think Faras will do?" Catherine, who was cold in front of her subordinates, was full of spring breeze when she saw Christina, she pointed to the armor on Christina's body and said, "Also, didn't I let you take it off, if someone here can force their way in, even if you wear it, it won't help." β
"At least I did my best. Christina replied unmoved: "Catherine, I will not let that scene happen 3 years ago again, I swore to keep you safe, but I put you in danger, and I can't do anything about it!"
Catherine smiled slightly, reassured Christina, and said, "Alright, alright, let's not talk about this, let's discuss how to deal with little sister Faras." β
Christina nodded, and sat down in the chair across from Catherine, but the wooden chair creaked with the weight of her armor. Catherine has always maintained a smile on her face, but in her heart she admires her teacher, the demigod lich, three years ago, Conse used the method of dimensional projection to parasitize part of his soul in Christina's body, but when that night passed, Christina's memory did not have this experience at all.
If it were an ordinary person, it would be nothing to do this, but Christina is a holy knight who has just passed the blessing of the gods, which is equivalent to the demigod Lich Cons using his own power to suppress the power of Christina's heart blessed by the gods, and it does not make the person concerned feel any discomfort, and even Christina can use various abilities unique to the Holy Knight, and because she is possessed by a demigod lich, she has an unusually close feeling to Catherine, so much so that Christina swore to the gods to protect Catherine for life, becoming Queen Catherine's first guardian knightγ
"My suggestion is that we can preemptively meet with that Fabia tonight, and if we can get him to support Her Majesty unconditionally, then my power in the imperial capital can be greatly increased, and it will be much easier to regain the power that was divided between Farath and Victor. Christina said.
Catherine didn't really want to follow Christina's advice, she did this nothing more than to entrap the female knight and make her feel trusted and valued, as for preemptively wooing Fabia, Catherine didn't think about it this way, but Catherine always felt in her heart that this overlord from Cassano was not a simple person, and she was very jealous of him.
And Catherine's ultimate goal is not to become the ruler of the imperial capital, but to make humans kill each other, so that the various creatures and races on this continent are filled with irresolvable hatred, only in this way, he will be more sure when the undead army returns.
200 years ago, the demigod lich underestimated the determination of the creatures on this continent to resist, and even after hundreds of years of conquest, when the undead legions brought the breath of death, the humans finally united, and added elves and dwarves, which ultimately made Conse's plan fail.
So Catherine rejected Christina's proposal: "No, after all, we are orthodox in the human kingdom, how can we condescend to meet with a small lord who is obviously divisive?" Christina, I have always believed that if you want to regain the power of the royal family, you must have the full support of the Royal Knights, you should go back to the barracks tonight and convince Orlando as much as possible." One Orlando joined, far more than the support of the 1 million army. β
"Then ......" Christina hesitated slightly, she had persuaded Orlando four times in the past three years, but Orlando had always remained neutral between Catherine and Faras, but Christina finally agreed: "Okay, I'll try again." β
Catherine knew that Orlando and the Royal Knights would not fall to any political force, and she asked Christina to do this by means to make young knights like Christina dissatisfied with Orlando, after all, the young people in the Holy Knights are full of enthusiasm, as long as they are guided by the general interests of the country, they will desperately charge the so-called enemy, even if those "enemies" were once their "comrades-in-arms".
Hot blood means easy to be seduced, and persistence is often synonymous with stubbornness and even paranoia, Catherine usually through Christina or her own motivational speeches, slowly planted a seed among the young people of the Royal Knights, although now there is no effect, but this evil seed is slowly taking root in the hearts of those people, sooner or later, when the harm from the great change, the Royal Knights will be divided because of the strong growth of this seed.
Because of the need to maintain their dominance, the Fernando royal family has constantly suppressed magicians, so that now the continent is extremely lacking in such power, compared to the spectacular scene of nearly 10,000 magicians casting spells at the same time in Sunrise City, now the entire human race, counting the magic apprentices who studied on the first day, may not have this number. If Catherine is able to divide the Royal Order again, then what else can humanity resist the power of the undead legion?
In order to achieve her goal, Catherine added a few more words: "Also, Christina, the comrades who passed the trial with you have now become the backbone of the Royal Knights, right? You haven't seen them for a long time, so it's better to find an opportunity to get together together." Alas, if Orlando is willing to support the royal family unconditionally, then we can now concentrate our efforts to sweep away the threat of the imperial capital, whether it is the Clay or Senat, they are no match for our invincible Royal Knights. β
Christina didn't speak, but the expression on her face had clearly told Catherine that she felt very incomprehensible about Orlando's current behavior, although it had not yet developed to the point of disgust or even opposition, but Catherine knew that the seed had definitely taken root in Christina's heart.
"Now, it's Fabia from Cassano against Bard from Cassano. The God of Light is above, and Bard is actually Fabia's subordinate, so will he directly admit defeat? No, I absolutely do not believe that they will do such a thing that violates fairness and justice, I believe that they will seriously decide the winner, let's wait and see. Now I announce, the game is on!" shouted the referee outside the court.
Ryan stood leisurely in the middle of the field, opposite him, Bard, who was struggling to defeat three opponents to advance. Compared to Bard's bloody battles, Ryan's first few games were simply a teaching battle, no danger, no suspense, raise your hand, cast spells, hit, win, and that's it.
"My lord, although I am your subordinate, I will never be relentless. Bard said righteously, "Please step on my corpse!"
Ryan was very disgusted by Bard's pretentious performance, and he didn't answer, and directly raised his right hand.
"Ah, stop, stop!" Bard was startled, he had seen Ryan's magic powerful, and when he saw that Ryan had already made an attack posture, he hurriedly shouted: "I have a few words to tell you, you won't fail to meet such a little request from my poor subordinate, right?"
Bud said as he walked in the direction of Ryan, who did not immediately release the magic, after all, Bud was his subordinate, and he still had to save a little face.
"Well, that's right, master. Bud said as he walked, "Before leaving today, Mistress Vivien came to me, and she asked me to say to you, if you are today, well, what if...... Suppose you ...... today Well, this is what Lord Vivien said, I'm just paraphrasing, you can't anger me!"
Bud said as he slowly approached Ryan, he saw that Ryan was very serious, knowing that Ryan had been attracted by his words, and at this moment Bud had entered the area of three meters of Ryan, he suddenly looked behind Ryan with a very surprised expression and said loudly: "Ah, Lord Vivian, you can't come up during the game, you get out quickly!"
At the same time as Bard spoke, the bard quickly drew two short swords, took a few steps towards Ryan, and then stabbed Ryan by the throat with one hand, and slashed from left to right with the other hand, sealing the space for Ryan to cast spells with both hands.
"Haha, Lord Fabia, you are doomed, a magician will never be able to win after being close!"
