Count Soros left the castle satisfied, and he wanted to rush back to the Blue Star Kingdom to report to Carlo IX. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info And Uncle Reiner is also very excited, Ark not only agreed to the marriage, but also obtained such a large piece of territory, which is incredible to think about.

Ark summoned Lorraine, Celie and the others together, and briefly explained the matter of the territory, and when they learned that the Blue Star Kingdom was willing to give up such a large piece of territory, everyone was happy from the bottom of their hearts.

This is equivalent to one-third of the area of the Duchy of Fennan, and from now on, they will have a real foothold, and Ark informed them of this, just to let them expand their power as much as possible.

Especially the mercenary group, while it is still in the royal capital, it is best to be able to expand the twenty mercenary groups to full strength, so that when they return to the territory, they can also deal with any changes.

As for marrying Princess Sophia, the daughter of Carlo IX, it has become a trivial matter, and Ark has left it to Uncle Reiner, and I believe that Uncle Reiner is also happy to do these things.

Count Soros was restored, and Carlo IX was also very happy, but this was not a trivial matter, although his position in the Blue Star Kingdom was supreme, but he also had to consult the opinions of many great nobles.

Therefore, the Blue Star Kingdom discussed it for more than a month, and finally negotiated some details with Reiner repeatedly, and finally finalized all the details after three months.

As a result, the Blue Star Kingdom immediately announced to the public, first Carlo IX, in the name of the royal family, promoted Ark from viscount to count, and assigned a large area of territory in the south of the Principality of Fernan to Ark's private domain.

Then it was announced that the marriage of Yak and Sophia, the ninth princess of the Blue Star Kingdom, was a bombshell news, and it instantly detonated the forces of all parties.

If Ark could guess Carlo IX's intentions, others could guess as well. However, everyone knows that this is already the best way that Carlo IX can come up with, and the rise of Ark is unstoppable, and with Ark here, even the Wesk Empire will not act rashly, which can be regarded as a great joy for everyone.

Some of the good people are looking forward to the marriage between Ark and Princess Sophia, which must be a big event on the whole continent.

......

In the palace of the Wesk Empire, the king of the huge empire is in control, but his face is gloomy at this time, since he obtained the territory of the southern part of the Duchy of Finan by Ark, he can naturally understand Carlo IX's intentions.

This is really a set up of the Wesk Empire, which makes the master of this huge empire very uncomfortable.

"What a Carlo IX, you want to use Ark to restrain my Wesker Empire?"

The king's tone was full of anger, but the king did not lose his mind because of anger, if it was just a new kingdom, it was actually nothing to the Wesker Empire. If the Wesker Empire was able to defeat the Duchy of Fennan in the first place, it would be able to defeat the new kingdom to the ground. What's more, Yak only gained one-third of the territory of the Duchy of Fennan.

However, this territory is Ark's territory, even if Ark does not have that huge number of mercenary forces, just Ark and Spark, the two of them are light and dark, in fact, comparable to a million elite troops, or even surpassed.

It's not that Ark and Spark can really kill a million troops, although Ark and Spark certainly can't kill that many people, but they can kill anyone, including the king of the Wesk Empire, he doesn't think his palace will be much safer than Caro IX's palace.

Therefore, the key is that Ark is in the territory, which is almost a huge barrier, and as long as Ark is alive, the Wesk Empire will not dare to act rashly.

As for how long Ark can live? Now Ark is only a teenager, not even twenty years old, ordinary people can live to be fifty or sixty years old, not to mention that the caster has the secret of immortality, at least a hundred years old.

For such a long time, just because of Ark alone, I am afraid that the entire continent will really be "peaceful", which is the real purpose of Carlo IX.

"Peace ...... for One"

The king of the Wesk Empire also fell silent, according to the law of the war between the Wesk Empire and the Twelve Kingdoms Alliance, generally in ten or twenty years, there will definitely be conflicts or wars. The longest period of peace between the two sides is only 26 years, but it was a long time ago.

Now with Ark, if nothing happens, it will definitely take more than twenty-six years to fall into a long-term peace, and even the Wesk Empire has to worry about whether Ark's power will expand in the direction of the Wesk Empire. After all, there was no rapprochement between the Ark and the Wesker Empire.

"Keep an eye on Ark. ”

The king waved his hand, and there was a deep frustration in his tone......

......

In the palace of the Blue Star Kingdom, Sophia, the ninth princess with long golden hair, a tall figure, and a delicate appearance, was now frowning tightly, and she didn't look happy at all.

"Your Royal Highness, have you heard? His Majesty the King is going to marry you to Viscount Ark of the Duchy of Fernan, by the way, now you are an Earl. ”

The maid in the palace said cautiously, she only inquired about such a news from the outside world.

Sophia actually already knew, because her father, Carlo IX of the Blue Star Kingdom, had already told her the news, but for Ark, Sophia had no impression at all, and she hadn't even seen Ark's face.

The most she knew was rumors about Ark, such as that Ark was a mysterious spellcaster with the secret of immortality. Ark possessed magical and powerful powers, and he and Spark escaped from the palace alone.

There are even rumors that Yak is described as terrifying, extremely ugly, and a fierce figure who kills like hemp.

Princess Sophia was just a young girl, and she had dreamed of marrying a handsome and considerate prince, but this was obviously just a dream, not realistic.

Generally, the princesses of the royal family will marry within the Twelve Kingdoms Alliance, either to marry a prince or to a big nobleman, Sophia has accepted such a fate, but she didn't expect her to marry Ark.

"Your Royal Highness, I heard that Count Ark is only seventeen years old. ”

"Seventeen-year-old ......"

Princess Sophia's big eyes were also full of curiosity, how could a seventeen-year-old boy have so many legends? Although Princess Sophia had not seen Ark yet, she had already begun to pay attention to Ark, and even collected information about Ark.

She knew that no one could change the decision made by Carlo IX, and she could only accept this fate, but she still wanted to know more about Ark, and she wanted to know what kind of person she was about to marry. )
