Chapter 752: You're My Little Pawn
When Elizabeth arrived at the banquet hall of the Blood King's Castle, Rogge and the others were already seated, and she sat down on the chair next to Shirley, and the banquet began, and Antonio, who was seated on the throne, stood up and raised his glass to thank everyone present for their efforts to unify the Cursed Lands.

"My Majesty," said Rogge, who sat at the right of Antonio, with a smile as he raised his glass, "and let that be the end of the thanks, we might as well drink this cup together and eat it at once, or else the little bad bird will have eaten the table by the time we have listened to your impassioned speech!"
Everyone present looked at the little Lori sitting between Roger and Catherine, Lilith, whose little cheeks were stuffed, stopped, licked the corners of the grease twist mouth with her little tongue, and the two big eyes sneakily glanced at the people around her, glanced at the four large plates that had been eaten in front of her, and couldn't help but burp.
"Ahem, you continue to ......" Rogne smiled, touched the little Lori's little head with his hand, Lilith glared at him with slanted eyebrows, lowered her head and continued to chew her mouth full of food, Antonio, who sat back in his place, smiled and clinked glasses with Rogge and said, "Honors to the hero!"
"Well, does Your Majesty plan to give me an official to do this?" Rogge drank the wine in the cup with a sly smile, put down the glass and looked at Antonio, the king of the blood clan laughed, and also put down the wine glass and said to him: "I'm afraid that you don't want it, people like you, the emperor doesn't care about it, what official position can make you look good?"
"Oh, I think it's appropriate for me and the little bad bird to stay in the dining room. Rog nodded his head in thanks to the Blood-Clan maid who had poured him the wine in his glass, and smiled at Antonio.
"Bad Wolf...... Woo you wait for me...... Hiccup waiting for me to finish eating...... Woo, I'll get revenge!" Little Lori called out to Rogge as she swallowed down the delicious food in her mouth, waving her little hand at Rouge.
Rogge hurriedly pulled the chair to Antonio's side, opened her oil-stained little hand with his hand, and frowned: "Take your little dirty hands away and rub them on Catherine, or Her Highness Elizabeth, didn't you wipe your hands on His Highness quite clean last time?"
Lilith looked back at Catherine, Catherine couldn't help but laugh and hid back, little Lori turned her eyes to Elizabeth again, Shirley, who was sitting next to Elizabeth, also looked at her sister with a smile, but found that the expression on Elizabeth's face was unusually calm, although there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, but she looked a little absent-minded.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Shirley gently touched Elizabeth's arm, Elizabeth subconsciously shrank back, looking at Shirley nervously, Shirley retracted her outstretched hand in surprise, and looked at her sister suspiciously.
Realizing her strange gaffe, Elizabeth quickly calmed down, squeezed out a smile and reached out to pat Shirley's shoulder and said, "It's okay, my sister is just a little emotional." ”
She stood up with her glass in her hand and walked over to Antonio, looked around at the crowd and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have dreamed many times in my sleep of a scene like today, and although everything in the dream may be a little different from today, the core is the same, that is, to go home. ”
She raised her glass high, and her loud voice echoed in the banquet hall: "As children of the blood clan, we have been away from home for too long, and in the past hundred years of hiding, I have been looking forward to returning home all the time, looking forward to sitting with my family and drinking wine. ”
Everyone present smiled happily when they heard her mention the word "family", only to see Elizabeth walk behind Antonio, stop beside Rogge and say: "All thanks to you, you have made many choices that will determine our fate, if it were a different person, maybe we would never be where we are today." ”
She handed the glass to Rogge, leaned over and smiled at him, "For the sake of choice, I toast you." ”
Rogge looked at her meaningfully with a kind smile on her face, smiled faintly and gently clinked glasses with her and said, "For the sake of my family, I did it!"
Elizabeth smiled and nodded, raised her glass and said to everyone, "Well said, for the sake of the family, please!" Then she drank the wine like Rogge, Catherine, Shirley and Antonio also raised their glasses together, Elizabeth personally poured the second glass of wine and handed it to Rogge, smiling and saying to him: "This glass, for peace." ”
Rogge smiled, took the glass and drank it again, Elizabeth poured the wine with Rogge for the third time, Antonio, Catherine and Shirley watched them drink one glass after another, and they all felt a little strange, and when they drank the seventh glass, Antonio stood up and said to Elizabeth, "Don't drink too much, you should get drunk later." ”
"Don't worry about it, I'm just going to have a good drink with him today. Elizabeth turned back and gave Antonio a cold look to warn, and although her tone was still soft, the coldness in her eyes made Antonio stop his subsequent persuasion and sit back in his chair.
"Don't worry, if Her Royal Highness wants to drink it, I'll accompany her to drink enough, and I don't know if there will be a chance to drink it a second time in the future," Rogge smiled nonchalantly and put down the dry wine glass, grabbed Elizabeth's pale little hand with a little drunkenness, and said: "Speaking of which, how did we go from killing each other to being so close, well, Your Highness, that's the right word, right?"
"Yes, we've been through so much together, of course, close. Elizabeth smiled affectionately and leaned over his head to bring the glass to his lips, and Rogge looked at her with misty eyes, and drank the wine from the glass.
The two of them chatted and drank like this, and several other people were silently watching them from the side, and the atmosphere became vaguely awkward, but fortunately, little Lori Lilith turned back to talk to Catherine and Shirley from time to time, so that their attention gradually turned to other directions.
Suddenly, Catherine, who had switched her seat to Shirley and was listening to her chatting with Lilith and Monica, heard a shocking snoring sound from across the table, and she looked back in surprise to see that Rogge had fallen asleep leaning on Elizabeth's waist.
"He's fine, let him sleep for a while. Noticing Catherine's concerned expression, Elizabeth smiled calmly and said that although she had drunk as much wine as Rogge, Elizabeth was not the slightest drunk, and the vampire's constitution made her not drunk at all, and drinking alcohol was as unaffected as drinking water.
She pushed the cup and plate in front of Rogge away, helped him to lie on the table, turned around and saw Antonio walking in from outside the hall, he changed his clothes, came to Rogge's side, looked at him and said, "Really drunk, I told you you were too drunk." ”
"Let him sleep," Elizabeth said with a smile as she handed the glass to Antonio, "how about we have a drink?"
"It is a great honour for me that Her Royal Highness the Princess is willing to drink with me. Antonio gladly took the glass, clinked glasses with Elizabeth, and drank the wine from the glass, and just as he was about to put it down, Elizabeth suddenly plunged a golden diamond-shaped crystal into Antonio's chest.
Antonio screamed, the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground, and Catherine and the others not far away raised their heads in surprise to look at them, only to see Antonio staggering back two steps and falling to the ground on his back.
Catherine and Shirley hurriedly got up, and before their bodies could leave their chairs, a barrier suddenly sealed them in place, and Catherine and Shirley were surprised to see a man in green appear next to Antonio and pull the golden crystal from his chest.
"Peter, give it to me!" said Elizabeth in a majestic tone as she held out her hand to the Lord of Lies.
Peter looked down at the glittering crystal full of energy in his hand, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his white and immaculate mouth, he held the crystal tightly in his hand and said, "Eldest princess, we haven't negotiated the conditions yet, as the planner of this perfect plan, don't you think you have given me too little?"
"I've already given you a life, isn't that enough?" Elizabeth's face darkened, and her hands slowly clenched into fists, and Peter took a step back in fear, saying, "You look a little angry, and I admit that I should be afraid of you now, but soon, I don't need to do that." ”
He took a step back, held the crystal in the palm of his hand and recited a spell, the crystal bloomed with brilliant light, Elizabeth saw this and shouted angrily and pounced on Peter, but a mirrored wall teleported her behind Peter, when Elizabeth turned around, she saw that the energy pouring out of the crystal had poured into Peter's body.
"No!" Elizabeth screamed in despair, and at the same time Peter opened a pair of sparkling eyes, and he smirked back to Elizabeth and smiled, "Thank you, eldest princess, although it feels different than I imagined, at least I got it." ”
He opened his arms and laughed proudly: "From now on, I am the king of the cursed land, no one can dictate to me again, Bartlett, you, or everyone else, you are all in the past, I am the supreme king, hahahaha!"
"You've been using me, you shameless liar!" Elizabeth clenched her fists in annoyance, eager to tear Peter to shreds at once, but now her heart was more of fear and remorse, and she didn't know what to do to undo it.
She turned her gaze to Rog lying on the table and Antonio lying on the ground, Rog was still snoring, Antonio was lying upright on the ground without a sound, Elizabeth felt her brain go blank, she didn't know who she should ask for help, she didn't know who could help her regain what she had lost.
At this moment, a small hand suddenly touched Peter's leg, Peter turned his head suddenly, and looked vigilantly at the little Lori standing beside him, only to see Lilith holding a half-gnawed chicken leg in her hand, chewing while touching a handful of oil on Peter's pants with her greasy little hand.
"Hey, are you the king of deception?" Little Lori chewed the chicken and said to Peter in a slurred mouth: "You guys are too noisy, delay me from chatting with the stupid girl and Sister Shirley, can you go outside and quarrel?"
Peter glanced at her impatiently, looked up at Elizabeth and smiled gloomily, "Okay, I also think we have lost too much time, so it is better to end all this now!"
As he spoke, he walked towards Elizabeth, his hands condensed into two dazzling magical lights, Elizabeth retreated in horror, until he was forced to the wall of the hall, only to hear Peter sneer: "Goodbye, eldest princess, thank you for everything you have given me......"
Before Peter finished speaking, the magic light in his hand suddenly dimmed, and then suddenly extinguished, Peter looked down at his hand in surprise, and exclaimed in great surprise, "What's going on?
