"Voices of Freedom" special

"Voices of Freedom" Special: The Kingdom of Rikaner Revealed.

"It's a country. It colluded with the nezumi, connived at the nezumi to invade the land, sent the knights to slaughter its own people, and allowed the nezumi to attack the snowy mountain fortress north, unleashing demons and turning the entire northern territory into purgatory. We call it a traitor, you call it ...... Kingdom of Rikaner. ”

"In June 1000 of Yves Saint Laurent, the Holy Council passed a resolution that all the territories recovered by the monarch would be returned to him. Cowering on the West Coast, the kingdom of Rikanr has returned, and its purpose for betraying humanity has emerged: expansion. ”

"The Yves Saint Laurent calendar is a blessing, meaning that a new chapter in the continent of Allen is written by mankind. But this is a curse for the great nobles, who can no longer expand their territory by waging wars, assassinations, and purchases. All nobles were forced to inherit their father's domain, which was passed on to their future children. The betrayer, who had the blood of Montreal in his veins, wanted too much honor over the Golden Family, so he thought, why can't we let the nezumi run rampant and scorch the earth while I reclaim it? ”

"At this time, in the turbulent year of the first millennium of the Saint Laurent calendar, when the gods were lost, the traitors began to expand, and the death of tens of millions of innocent people became a stepping stone to his ambitions, and the living were kept in the dark, thinking that the executioner who caused everything to happen was their hero—what an ironic and ridiculous scene......"

Annan put down the newspaper.

Evelyn did a great job. She pierced the ugliness of the kingdom of Rikaner, and there was no trace of it.

"How?" Annan asked Ingrid.

"Are you asking about the response or the sales?"

"Both."

"It's bad."

Sales of "Voices of Freedom" have gradually increased, from 50,000 copies in the first issue to 80,000 copies, of which 10,000 copies were brought about by the previous issue of the expeditionary force. But by the second day of its release, "Voices of Freedom" had sold just over 10,000 copies.

Because the Montreal family is involved.

The main purse of Liberty City is in the Tatoon Empire. They look very taboo. The normal circulation of the magic newspaper there depends on the friendship accumulated before.

The aristocracy and the rich did not dare to squeak, and only another group of major consumers: mercenaries, were indignant.

"Let the news ferment for a while."

Ingrid bowed her head and walked out.

"That's right......"

Annan wanted to say something, but there was no sound of Ingrid's footsteps outside the hallway.

"Walking so fast?"

……

Burke, the Home Secretary, silently flipped through the magic newspaper and followed Evelyn's voice to his usual favorite part of the joke:

["A newspaper reporter interviewed the royal family of the Rikanr Kingdom: Some people say that there is a department in your Rikanr Kingdom that is responsible for betraying humans, and then the department next door is responsible for slaughtering humans. ”

The royal family was furious: "This is slander! ”

"Slander?"

"These two departments are not next door at all!" 】

Burke, who had been with a straight face for a whole period, finally smiled: "I love this to death!" ”

The Chancellor of the Exchequer next to him, Franking, also showed a dissipating solemn smile: "Our magic newspaper is not bad either. ”

"After all, it cost 100,000 gold coins."

"And with their help find a bunch of bed bugs." Flamening added, and then the smile on the face of the chancellor disappeared into a sigh: "Something is going to happen." ”

"What?"

"If what the newspapers say is false, the kingdom of Rikanr will not let Liberty City go. If what the newspapers say is true, the kingdom of Rikaner will not let Liberty City go. ”

"I think Liberty City has a lot of guts." The aristocracy hated fools who were too upright, because no one was clean, and Burke liked such fools: "They may have the confidence to do so." ”

Burke's talk of preparation appeared in the Reich a few days later.

To everyone's incomprehension and amusement, the Imperial newspaper quoted the "Voice of Freedom" special and expressed its gratitude to Annan's Freedom Expeditionary Force for rescuing Princess Sails from the old royal capital.

Affected by Montreal Mountain, the sales of the "Voice of Freedom" special, which was almost halved in the previous period, suddenly exceeded the demand, and even exceeded the usual sales.

The aristocracy and the wealthy smelled something unusual, and gossip began to circulate that "it was the palace gardens on the Montreal hills."

But apart from solidarity, Montreal Hill has been silent.

The nobles watched for a while, believing that the kingdom of Rikanr would not suffer a dumb loss.

How will the kingdom of Rekanr counteract? Declare war? Assassinate? Still is......

The answer was revealed a few days later: the Magic Newspaper.

This magical newspaper called "The Glory of Rikaner" was sent to the desks of the major nobles who were concerned about this time, and it revealed all the "ugly things" of Annan, such as raising orcs and ogres, and being unclear with the nezumi, reusing the Olmedo family that had taken refuge in the nezumi, disobeying the orders of the aliens, and shielding the aliens......

They wanted to defeat Annan with his invention. As a result, the nobles found out that the champion warlock really hadn't done anything bad, so that "Glory of Ricanal" could only find these trivial things.

So much so that the "Twin Chancellors Weekly", who loves arch fire, commented on Professor Snape's line in "Annan Potter and the Philosopher's Stone": You dare to use my magic against me!

There is nothing negative about this except to prove that what Annan said is true and that Annan is really a good person.

So much so that the image of Annan and Liberty City was officially stereotyped in the eyes of everyone: a lord with a sense of justice and his city-state.

……

"Therefore, I suggest that the royal court send an envoy to contact Free City."

Teddell Moonsteller's voice echoes through the council halls.

Twigs and vines weave the emerald green of the council hall, and the midday sun casts shade through the shadowy foliage.

Dozens of figures sat in front of the huge stump, shouting for and against.

Opposition prevailed. Even though the magic image washed away a lot of prejudice, the other elven elders still refused to make contact with the outside world.

"Even the druids are working with him, and we shouldn't do nothing." Tydel's snow-white skin in the shade of the trees exudes a hazy glow, like a dream.

"If you don't agree, the Moon Elves will do it themselves." Irilanze, who was standing aside, echoed.

This caused the other Elven Clan elders to squire, "Do you know what you're talking about? ”

"Let's try to get in touch...... I saw the shadow of the organization in that boy......" An old sigh of nostalgia suddenly sounded at the head of the round stump.

"The day of chaos is near...... It's never a bad thing to have one more friend to fight Chaos. ”

When the old elder spoke of chaos, the elves in the council hall fell silent.

A few hours later, the Elven Court's alliance intentions reached Annan's ears through the leaves of the World Tree.

Genie? Ally?

Annan, who was still staring at the kingdom of Rikaner, was suddenly hit by an unexpected joy.

"The envoys of the royal court will depart soon."

"Who's going to lead the team?"

"Your elven mentor." Teddell actually made a joke.
