Chapter 133: The Heart of the Empire

"Instead of blaming others for making us miserable, it's better to say that we don't have enough self-cultivation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Men are born to bear suffering. ”

"You may think that cheap is not rare, to be honest, it only cost 20 Bourbon gold coins, for many nobles, it is really nothing, but for a poor man with no more than 100 Bourbon gold coins on his body, it is expensive enough, you have to believe me, if I have 1000 Bourbon gold coins, then the gift must be worth 200 Bourbon gold coins, and if I have 10000 Bourbon gold coins, the gift will definitely be worth more than 2000 Bourbon gold coins, so you can't refuse because it is cheap, you know, I am already willing to pay me 1/5 in exchange for this gift. ”

......

The night is thin.

Sophia, who appeared there, saw Augustus again, and remembered the time when she was in the wasteland, in fact, when she knew that Augustus was coming, she had already thought more than once about how she would face the former Augustus if Augustus arrived, and she also planned to pretend that nothing had happened like she did in the wasteland, and continue to face this cowardly demon who rejected her, but now, when he really appeared in front of her eyes so suddenly, she finally found that she couldn't face it as calmly as before――How can it be as if nothing happened?

She froze there and looked at him not far away, and even maintained the posture of carrying her skirt when she ran.

He stood there looking at her, just like her.

It wasn't a long time, but it felt extraordinarily long.

He finally made a movement in her blurred vision, like a smile, as warm and hypocritical as before, and then from such a distance, he put his right hand on his chest and bent down to make a very gentlemanly and elegant aristocratic greeting, or a farewell salute, and after straightening up, he still did not say a word, and turned around as if he was about to leave altogether.

Sophia, who pursed her lips tightly, subconsciously opened her mouth to call him, but she didn't say a word, and she suddenly realized that even if he stopped, what should she say?

When we met again, we were speechless.

Augustus took Terina's little hand and quickly disappeared into the night, just as he came quietly, he left quietly, only leaving behind the corpse of the personal butler of Clark's heir on the ground, a bouquet of ruined and withered flowers, and the third heir of Clark's third line of succession who still wailed in despair from time to time in the serpent-body dragon head carriage, and he walked very freely.

......

Sophia finally walked to Elizabeth's side, looked at the corpse of old Luthor on the ground, and then looked at Clarke's carriage with a wailing sound, she also chose to ignore this Clark heir who almost made her regret it for the rest of her life, and then seemed to have completely forgotten Augustus a moment ago, she smiled and Elizabeth got into the purple iris carriage, and whispered sorry to Elizabeth, Elizabeth hid her heart and sighed, and said with the same smile What does it have to do with you, these things are not what we can expect after all, and then in the end she still saw Sophia's absent-mindedness, Elizabeth hesitated, and repeated what Augustus had just said to her to her。

Sophia listened attentively.

In fact, she also thought about what Augustus said about Nicholas, but considering that Nicholas became her personal butler for too short a time, she didn't know whether Nicholas was completely credible, so she never let Nicholas deal with her affairs, but at this time, since Augustus said so, she didn't hesitate, directly lifted the carriage curtain, looked at Nicholas who was driving the carriage next to them, and she explained: " If there are any things that you feel necessary to do in the future, and you feel that you can do them, you don't need to ask me for my attitude, just do what you think. After a pause, considering the question of Clark's third heir in line this night, she added: "There is also the matter of the Clark family, I don't want Augustus to suffer the revenge of the Clark family in the imperial capital." ”

He said, and she did, and it didn't need a reason.

Viscount Nicholas, who had been smiling gently, nodded slightly, and after his Highness lowered the curtain of the carriage, he turned to look in the direction in which the Earl of Alfred from the wasteland had left.

Of course, he knew why his Highness had suddenly given him all his trust.

What a headache.

......

The absurd drama of the night seemed to come to an end quickly.

However, in the early hours of the same morning, what no one knew was that Sophia's Violet Manor suddenly welcomed a distinguished guest who even the old Duke of Constantine had to greet in person. It is an old man, to be exact, a thin old man with neat silver hair and a white robe, his background may be ordinary to the point of being almost humble, just an ordinary civilian origin in the Empire, but in the Empire, his origin cannot at all hinder his noble status in the Holy Empire, because he has a name that is unique to the entire Empire, his name is Carthage, he has no surname, but he has the lofty praise of the undefeated god of war of the Holy Empire.

He appeared in Violet Manor, and since it was early in the morning, no one seemed to notice this uninvited guest, and then stood on the manor grass for about 3 minutes, and then he suddenly rose up and instantly appeared at the top of the main building of the manor.

So the night sky, the silver moon, and the old man's white hair directly constitute the most gorgeous gothic picture.

In a moment, the same old man appeared quietly on the main floor of the manor without warning, standing indifferently at a distance of about ten steps from Carthage.

His name is Old Vernon, maybe he used to have a surname, but now he has only one identity, that is, Alfred's old butler, he stands under the moon, as silent and rigid as ever, when he stood at the top of the pyramid of the human world, he was like this when he was reduced to only level 7 Dou Qi power, and even when he returned to the human sword saint realm a few hours ago, it seems that except for the identity of Alfred Butler, he will never take anything to heart about any changes, Ourano, the Sword Master, is not important to him。

"Sure enough, it's you. Carthage spoke slowly, with a complicated expression, he looked at the calm and indifferent old Vernon opposite, and he said softly: "Also, apart from you, I can't think of anyone else who has been able to enter the realm of the Sword Saint recently, speaking of which, has the curse on your body been lifted?

"Enough. Vernon Sr. was still concise and indifferent.

Carthage was stunned, and then laughed, of course he knew what the Urano realm plus the power of the Sword Saint meant to this terrible Alfred butler, he looked at this Alfred butler that he could not surpass in his life, probably remembering the praise of his empire's undefeated god of war, his smile flashed a little bitter, and then sighed and said, "Why did you come back suddenly?" If I remember correctly, even if your Earl returned to the Imperial several times back then, you didn't follow him, so why did you go back to the Imperial Capital with that little Alfred guy this time?"

Old Vernon was silent.

Then, standing at the very top of the main building of the manor, looking down on the vast empire, he calmly said, "Because Alfred is coming back." ”

At that moment, the undefeated god of war who had been sitting in the clouds and calmly guarding the empire for more than 10 years suddenly narrowed his eyes.

......

Imperial capital, Stone Town.

Getting up early in the morning, accustomed to the silence and tranquility of the wasteland, Augustus was really uncomfortable with him being woken up by the noise of people coming and going outside Stone Town, and then looked at Queen Terina, who had not woken up beside him, and remembered that he had relieved old Vernon last night. 'Soul Shackles', every time Terina took a step, a brilliant picture of a black six-pointed star magic array was born under his feet, and it was difficult for him to calm down, especially when he thought of the original extraction of his soul and the guidance of Donald's heir, because of the serious loss of soul power, Terina's sleep was almost unbearable, and he was even more worried.

Under his worried gaze, Terina opened her eyes and noticed Augustus's eyes, of course she knew that little Augustus was inexplicably worried, Terina pouted in disdain, lying on the big bed in Stone City, she didn't get up, and casually took the ruby scepter that exploited Old Count Donald next to her to Augustus, she looked at the gloomy ruby and mocked: " Put away your boring worries, it's just that I and the magic stored in the ruby are completely depleted, and the loss of soul power is really not too serious, then again, little Augustus, you are already a magician, why can't you even figure out this bit of common sense? You are simply stupid, I really grieve for you, you are still Queen Terina's servant knight, don't you know that your queen is not afraid of anything, is she afraid of stupidity?"

Augustus was embarrassed and said viciously: "I hope you remember that your right to breakfast is in the hands of the fool you say." ”

"Hah, it's this old-fashioned threat again. ”

The barefoot Terina ignored little Augustus anymore, jumped out of bed, she pushed open the window of the hotel room, outside the window, the noisy and lively noise suddenly came clearly, enjoying this lively atmosphere, and then feeling the breath of life that she had not felt for many years, Terina stretched lazily, looking at the bustling crowd downstairs, she smiled: "Augustus, we are already in the heart of the Holy Empire." ”

Standing behind her, Augustus did not look down at the crowd below, but looked up at the towering buildings around Stone Town, narrowed his eyes, listened to the chaotic noise, and repeated Queen Terina's words with the same smile, and he said softly, "Yes, this is the heart of the Holy Empire." ”

The sun shone through the window on their faces, and it was bright. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. (To be continued.) )
