Chapter 239: The True Purpose
Char stared at Catherine, and her eyes grew more and more appreciative.
He may have understood why the empress had become the only emperor of the empire.
He had seen many empresses, such as Isabel, and although her reign was short, she was indeed a very good emperor.
But she has a problem, and that is that being too kind, or to say something ugly, can actually be considered weak.
In this era when the vast majority of countries are autocratic, the emperor is everything, a dictator, and absolute.
She can command the Celtic Knights, she can mobilize the surrounding troops at will, even the Southern Army, which has been cultivated by Victor for many years, will obey her orders when she is present.
See how Victor did it?
He killed Moria's young son, killed his wife, and blinded Alicia.
Although there is no evidence, he must also be the biggest suspect, and for this reason alone, the emperor has a reason to let him die.
She could have ended Victor Britannia's life in the imperial capital in a more straightforward way.
All his rights, all his arrangements, will disappear with his passing.
But neither Moriah nor she did so, and the morality of their hearts bound them.
Their weakness became the enemy's capital.
In such an era, a weak emperor would only bring the empire to its end.
But Catherine is different, she is merciful, but her kindness is not weak.
In Char's eyes, she was much more beautiful than the first time he saw her.
The beauty of many female characters comes from power.
It is probably the power that draws attention to the thorns under the roses, the iron fist under the black velvet.
Of course, Char is just an angle of appreciation, just like admiring a famous painting, and nothing else.
As if noticing Char's gaze, Catherine turned her head and teased.
"What, you're hooked on me?"
"You are indeed beautiful." Char said undeniably, "Your eyes are full of ambition and aggression right now. β
"Is this complimenting me?" "That doesn't sound like a good word," she asked. β
"Of course." Char said with a serene look in his eyes, "Pure ambition is not enough to charm, charming is the effort to achieve, calculation and velvet, killing and roses."
Whatever your thoughts, the moment people want to get to know you, you're young forever. β
Catherine stared at Char for a long time, and she smiled, "Your words are really gorgeous, I have heard a lot of flattery in my life, but none of them are as good as yours. β
Her gaze wandered, "So, are you willing to stay for me?" β
"I think I've already given you the answer." Char said.
"Is that so?"
Catherine murmured softly, her eyes lowered, but she said no more.
"I thought you'd hold on a little longer." Char teased.
"People I invite on my own initiative usually don't invite a second time."
Catherine looked up at him, and there was no more nostalgia or hesitation in her eyes.
Char's eyelids were slightly retracted, and her cheeks were slightly raised, revealing a smile.
Love is never the whole of an emperor.
Such an answer can be worthy of the name of the emperor.
"You're going to live a wonderful life." Char said.
He raised his hand and put it on Catherine's forehead, and he pulled out a cloud of fate, but at the same time, he pulled out a cloud of dark smoke.
Like dark clouds, like black soot.
This is the purpose of his trip.
"What's that?" Catherine frowned.
She didn't lose consciousness, so she saw Char pull it out of her mind with her own eyes.
Soon, under her gaze, the fog formed a pair of eyes and a mouth.
Its gaze searched all around, and soon locked on Char, its eyes slightly frozen, and it actually spoke.
"You're you again?"
"Hiding in the mind of a beautiful lady is not what a gentleman should do." Char teased, "What's more, you're still a god." β
Catherine's pupils contracted slightly, and she looked at the black mist on Char's hand in astonishment.
Black Mist stared at Char and continued, "Are you sure you want to go against me? β
Char smiled, "I recently learned a word called self-knowledge.
Don't be too modest, and don't be too arrogant.
I thought about it, you shouldn't be enough to be my enemy. β
The black mist only felt a flash of anger welling up in his heart.
"Then try it, human.
You'll regret everything you've done! β
The moment his words fell, the black mist suddenly expanded.
A huge amount of energy spread out in all directions, and countless colorful beams of light burst out from the black mist, even becoming more and more dazzling.
But Catherine did not feel sacredness at all.
She only felt a huge burst of energy explode in front of her, and the blinding light took over her vision.
She felt as if she was going to be swallowed by this huge energy in the next moment, and she was instantly annihilated into nothingness, so she subconsciously grabbed the corner of her clothes.
But the expected pain did not come, and the light gradually weakened.
When she came back to her senses, Char's hand was still grasping the huge energy.
Countless insubstantial rays of light were grabbed by Char in his hand like a leather ball at this moment, and they were pinched and slightly deformed.
The surging energy was still scattering, but it was just some wind and light, and the colored streamers reflected on Char's face, making him look weird.
The corners of his mouth were slightly grinning, and there was a calm smile, but his eyes were slightly sharp, and the wind brought by the surging energy made his hair fly.
The hand holding the energy also trembled slightly, but then, the corners of Char's mouth gradually widened, and the smile became more and more wanton.
"Peng!"
With the sound of the ball exploding, the energy was pinched and exploded by Char with one hand, turning into countless fragments of photons like glass shards and scattering, and finally completely dissipated into nothingness.
Everything gradually stopped
It's still a sleeping clone, but it's much weaker than the one that appeared in the Nibelungen Treasure before.
But at that time, he couldn't see through Char and didn't want to waste his divine power, so he didn't make a move.
Obviously, Char's words just now angered him, and he chose to directly detonate this divine power.
It can only be said. It is worthy of the power of God.
Catherine came back to her senses from the magical scene she had just had.
"That thing is a god?"
"It is indeed God, or the power of God." Char said undeniably.
"Why is it in my mind?" She asked with a frown.
"Don't you notice that there is something strange about the war in this world?" Char said.
"The war on the Eastern Front, the war between Britannia and the Spanish Empire, and the war in Europe."
Catherine seemed to realize something, "So, his purpose is to control me from starting a war?" β
"It's not like it's control, it's a force that will make you dream." Char said quietly, "These dreams will constantly hint at something to you. β
"So, you're stopping Him, and He's your enemy?" She said.
"The enemy isn't that good, but sometimes, this guy is a bit annoying." Char said, "The mood of travel was ruined by him. β
"Will he ever come back?"
"Because of your help, He won't be able to stumble for long." Char said.
The coup d'Γ©tat to the throne is the most important point in her life, and the power of fate he has obtained from Catherine can give him a lot of room to maneuver.
"Because of me?"
Catherine's chin was slightly raised, and her eyes were quietly watching him.
"So, you didn't come near me simply because of some witness, right?"
Char had a smile on her face, "What do you think?" β
While they were talking, the carriage also stopped at the entrance of the palace.
Orlov stood in the doorway, but there were some imperceptible blood stains on his shoulders.
He had actually gone to the fortress with them before.
However, after they left the fortress, Catherine told him to do something, so he went back to the palace first.
Naturally, a horse pulling a cart runs slower than a horse that doesn't.
Seeing that the carriage had stopped, he stood still at the door of the carriage.
"Your Majesty, the former Emperor Peter III died violently due to a sudden illness, and the court physician said that it was because of the chain reaction caused by indigestion."
There was silence in the carriage for a moment, and then Catherine's voice came.
"It's a pity, but maybe it's fate.
After all, he was the emperor of the empire, and he was given a funeral of the right specifications. β
"Yes." Orlov owes in response.
Catherine turned her head to look at Char, and instead of continuing the topic just now, she asked.
"You're leaving, aren't you?"
Char's jaw.
"We should be friends now, right?" Ekaterina said.
"Of course." Char laughed.
"Since we're friends, there's supposed to be a way to find friends, shouldn't we?" She said.
"I opened a tavern in St. Petersburg." Char said, "A family. . . Very special tavern, you should be able to find it. β
He didn't tell her the address, but simply turned into countless golden points of light and disappeared in place
Ekaterina reached out and those golden dots of light slid across her fingertips that she couldn't grasp no matter how hard she gripped them.
She watched as the light dissipated completely, but said nothing
