Volume 2 Why the Sun Shines Chapter 77 The Heir
At that time, May had just arrived in Wales with the help of a corporate airship, the city she was most familiar with but now extremely unfamiliar, which belonged to the well-governed prince eight years ago, and now the title of prince has changed.
To this day, no one knows what this is all about, and the citizens only remember that Adrian's brother returned like lightning.
"Lady Messiah, go this way."
Unfazed, under the protection of the apostles, she was led by her servants to the place where the negotiations would take place in the Maharaja's mansion, unbeknownst to her, that Francis had been here and had entered the ghost train here.
Outside the door of the study, Mei motioned to the monk's robe that she could go in alone, and said, "Just wait for me to come out." ”
Walking in, the new prince was sitting in the master seat of the long ebony table, squinting and waiting for her arrival.
The two of them had been battling the Welsh border for eight years, and May thought there was no end to the war, and she was tired of bringing down one fraternity idiot after another.
Of course, the Welsh and the Duchy Guard would not have given their lives to the prince who had taken the throne, at least not so much in the case of attacking the Messiah, and the townspeople were more appreciative of the Lady from the Messiah.
A beautiful woman who uses alchemy technology to maintain her youth, a strong executive who has worked hard to run a business for nearly ten years, and the killing machine on the front line of the war, how you look at Mei depends on which of the above three angles to choose.
Adrian's younger brother, now Prince Morgan, finally waited for his guest, and when he opened his eyes and marveled at May's beauty, he said with amusement: "Lady Messiah, you are still here." ”
He looked at the woman in front of him who had been transformed by alchemy in many parts of her body, not to mention that she could resist the attack of the Brotherhood, and made them suffer a lot.
I could only watch her enter the Western Continent and completely control the situation on the northern shore of the Eros Sea.
Mei sat in the guest seat, sipping black tea, her expression was calm, but her tone was extremely unkind: "You're an annoying fly, Morgan." A truce is fine, but you must remember that the lives of the six children will be counted sooner or later. ”
One of the reasons for agreeing to the terms of the truce was that May wanted to turn her energy to looking after Abel and Elsa, who she couldn't afford to lose anymore.
Continue to continue the war meaninglessly, Abel and Elsa will be in the blind spot of her vision, maybe not everyone is Little Red Riding Hood, but Grandma Wolf is everywhere, and May has learned this bloody lesson.
She put down her teacup, tapped her fingers on the table, and said, "One of the conditions on which I agree to a truce is that the Brotherhood get out of Wales as soon as possible, and none of the citizens here like them." ”
Morgan folded his hands and responded, "Who in the Western Continent would dare not obey your orders, ma'am." That's fine, of course, but again, I would like to ask the corporate airships to stop indiscriminately entering the skies over Wales. ”
May's expression cooled, she crossed her legs, and warned Morgan, "You are not qualified to negotiate conditions. ”
Unexpectedly, he spread his hands and said with Lai Pi: "But as a demigod, I have the qualifications not to talk about it." ”
The negotiations fell apart for a while, but May did not budge, saying that Morgan would ink a few more words, and she would let the Queen Victoria's main cannon blast open his heavenly spirit cover.
Demigods are nothing more than high-level extraordinary, and all the guys on the bright side of the Western Continent have to listen carefully to what Mei has to say.
In the end, Morgan still chose to compromise in the face of May, this woman is still too terrible, he will not go to the bottom stupidly: "The final condition, the First Air Fleet of Messiah will withdraw at least a hundred kilometers from the Welsh border, stop controlling the market's extraordinary supply of potions to Wales, and restore ownership of our own airspace." ”
Mei laughed a few times, and then asked, "You don't think you've won the battle, do you?" ”
Morgan shrugs his shoulders and says he can continue to get into trouble with the business, and then Aisha, like the other six children, is murdered by a third party.
Then he smiled with a firm smile: "Lady Messiah, the point of negotiation is that we each take a step back. ”
May on the other side of the table gritted her teeth, and for Elsa's sake, she agreed to Morgan's truce.
Without saying a word, he left the study room for negotiation with a brisk pace.
She didn't stop much in Wales, but went straight back to her makeshift residence in the royal city, where May saw Alice chatting with Abel.
Alice turned her head to look at May, and she smiled and said, "It only took two days, and it seems that your talks are going well." ”
"I'm just curious why you came, didn't stay in Helen, I said before that you didn't want to leave there."
Alice smiled wryly and made a clumsy excuse to jokingly respond: "Solomon has also begun to like rye beer, and he is the first unwilling to be there when I am not there." ”
At this moment, Aisha, who had been staying in the room, heard Mei's voice and walked out with Abel's report card and handed it to her. Seeing this, Abel instantly sat on the sofa like a deflated ball and didn't say a word.
Mei took the report card while looking at Elsa and said softly, "What's wrong dear, this is..."
Elsa: "Abel's transcript, Professor William asked me to tell you that he can't teach my brother this idiot. ”
May: "What idiot? ”
Alice: "Ahhh
Mei looked at Abel's results, first of all, the creation of monsters from purification is absolutely unqualified, and most of the others are really unqualified, except for the alchemy potion blending, which is almost qualified.
To Abel's surprise, Mei didn't get angry, but smiled helplessly and threw the report card into the trash: "It's okay, Abel is just a little biased." ”
Alice: "Ahhh
Elsa: "What's the subject?" ”
Francis wasn't going to expose a few children to extraordinary knowledge, so May naturally didn't worry about their grades, and she knew that Abel's talent lay in the study of steam.
Then, with a warm smile, Mei turned to Aisha and said, "I can only say sorry to Professor William, let him let Abel go." ”
Later, May asked them both to go back to their rooms, and they wanted to talk to Aunt Alice about something.
"Say, Alice, you're not here just to see Elsa."
Alice's expression became very serious, and she pointed to the sky outside and said, "That thing will wake up at some point, you should leave the royal city with Abel and Elsa quickly." ”
She didn't support Mei at first for taking Abel and Aisha to the royal city to practice extraordinary knowledge, but now she is naturally even more anxious.
Unexpectedly, Mei had a strange expression, leaned on the railing and responded lightly while blowing the wind: "I got the news on some channels, this thing can't wake up for the time being, and the Black Temple doesn't plan to wake it up blindly at present." ”
"Then you have more time to evacuate with your two children."
May turned her head, looked at Alice, and said softly, "You don't understand, for the time being, maybe a hundred years, maybe a thousand years." Leaving here won't make any difference. ”
Seeing this, Alice also leaned against the railing, supporting her chin with her hands, and listened intently to May's continuation.
"We have to start getting used to the existence of this heavenly behemoth, you know, humans are the best at getting used to something and then forgetting its danger."
Alice, who had been listening to May, couldn't help but sigh, feeling as if nothing seemed to be different in the world after Francis left.
She has only attended one of the Shadow Meetings in the eight years of Golden Dawn, and that is to report that Francis has been trapped by accident.
Then the two of them talked about a very important matter, and Alice asked, "May, have you chosen the heir, and you don't have much time to think about it slowly." ”
As for the heir of the Messiah, May had been avoiding this matter before, she kneaded her hands, and finally responded with a smile: "I have always thought about Abel, but I always thought that Francis would come back, the man is not dead, and these little boys are not yet in their turn to call the position." ”
It makes sense that Alice is worrying about herself.
But in the residence, Elsa sneaked out at some point, listening to what May and Alice were talking about, and what she was holding in her hand was Armand's head.
When Armand heard what May said, he chimed in: "Oh no, May has chosen your brother as the possible heir. ”
Elsa's expression was very dissatisfied, because if she couldn't get the position of heir, she wouldn't be able to enter the large library of the Moon House to find Elizabeth.
Abel would have asked Aisha why she had entered the Great Library, and she couldn't come up with a plausible excuse.
The plan that has been carefully laid out for many years by yourself loses the possibility of realization.
When did this plan begin, when did Elsa meet Armand playing the piano for the first time after Francis was trapped on the Gustav.
I vaguely remember Elsa asking, "Why do you look so happy?" ”
Armand replied cheerfully: "I am very happy that Francis is trapped in Gustav, little girl. ”
Later, young Aisa, who wept and wanted to return to the arms of her father Francis, promised Armand a devilish deal:
"Don't you always want to go out, you help me, and I'll set you free in return."
Mei had been neglecting Elsa's education in those years, she thought that Able could handle it, but she didn't take into account that Able was not omnipotent.
An evil seed is thus buried within the Messianic family, which has not yet been discovered by all, except for Alice's slight premonition.
At this moment, Aisha patted Armand's head and said calmly: "It is reasonable for Sister Mei to think so, but the person who finally gets the key to the moon house will definitely be me." ”
Armand: "Even to kill Abel?" ”
Elsa: "I will try not to let blood be spilled on the Messiah." ”
Armand lamented that Elsa was still not cold enough, not cold enough, to gracefully fulfill her expectations.
