"Yes......" Hearing William say this, Freya's first feeling is still "he is too arrogant". Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"If that's not the case, why did they act before me?" William indifferently untied the bass from the hook and threw it into the fish basket next to him: "It seems that now, they have found my stupid aunt, and they don't know how to buy it...... Or persuaded her to let this guy who had always looked at me unpleasantly appear in front of me, and said so many things. ”

"I-" Freya felt angry at the first moment. However, after coming back to her senses and completely digesting William's words, her face turned red all of a sudden: "Do you think I'm here to be a lobbyist for whom?"

"It's not. William replied calmly, "That's why I said, you were deceived." With your IQ. William nodded his head here: "A little hint, a little trick in language, it is easy to lead you into thinking that you have come up with these things yourself, without anyone's instructions."

"But, but ......" Although William's words made a lot of sense, Freya still found it difficult to accept. I don't know if it's "she's fooled" it's a little harder to accept, or "her IQ isn't enough" is harder to accept.

"Anyway, if you have anything to say to me, say it quickly. William continued: "I don't really have much time to mess around with you.

Although ...... was indignant at William's unkind words, Freya finally spoke: "I think we should look for allies." It is not the kind of unreliable people who are forced to form an alliance with us because of the situation, but those who can fight side by side with us, real allies. ”

"Why do you think that?" Wright was momentarily surprised:

"All allies choose to form alliances because of the situation. The difference is only that some people are forced and some people take the initiative. If the situation allows, all allies will be reliable, and if the situation changes, all allies will not be reliable...... Forget it, if I say this kind of thing, probably you won't take it to heart. Tell me, who are you talking about by 'real allies'? Surely it could be the Gothic Knights?"

"Not really. Freya only felt that in front of William, she could not even speak. It's as if the other party has some kind of dark magic power that can read her heart. And the words are very sharp, often making her unable to get off the stage.

"That's good. William breathed a sigh of relief: "If it's them, then thank you." ”

The reason why William said this is because after the founding of the Russian state, the Gothic Knights had a new move, and some of the great knights of the Order seemed to want the Kingdom and the Order to be established. The Kingdom of Jerusalem had the same relationship with the Temple and the Knights Hospitaller.

However, this was completely unacceptable to William.

He didn't need the outdated force of the knights. He didn't want one to have any privileges with those bastards. Or they want to build any castle within their kingdom that is not their own, and they will not give them land, they will not give them estates, they will not give them anything.

So, after feeling William's coldness, the Gothic Knights suspended a series of collaborations with the Hereford family. Then, if you want to organize immigrants to your own country, you have to work the Hereford family themselves.

But even if it is, it doesn't matter. The Gothic Knights are just trying to establish a knightly state in the Great Frontier. William didn't believe it, and only two years later, they had died down.

There is no easier way to make money in this world than to cheat and cheat. borrowing chickens to lay eggs, borrowing backdoor listings, borrowing corpses to resurrect souls or something. These are all things that William knew in his last life. And the Gothic Order's uncooperative attitude was not at all threatening to William. Anyway, I just don't agree. Even if they are not convinced, can this "dynamic social organization" still cross the border and go to the territory of the Hereford family to fight William?

Something completely impossible.

So, after hearing that the Gothic Knights would not help, William immediately fought back. The next day, Freya was promoted to the kingdom's Minister of Immigration.

With the strong financial resources of the Hereford family, as well as the influence of commercial influence, Lenovo's new self will do better than the Gothic Knights.

But of course, William didn't think about completely tearing his face with the Gothic Knights. This is one of the reasons why he chose Freya as the Minister of Immigration. The purpose was to calm the injured and nervous emotions of the Gothic knights. Let them have a thought in their hearts.

But if the people who begged Freya weren't the Gothic Knights' comrades, who would it be?

William thought to himself, "Emperor, Briton, or Holy See?"

"Actually, it's the Alchemist Alliance. Freya said solemnly, looking at her mysterious appearance, and feeling that she had not yet believed William's words, that she had been seduced—she probably thought that these were her words.

But it doesn't matter. In the rare rest time, it is also a good pastime to listen to the funny words of the aunt who looks very cute and is very silly. If, of course, just in case, what Freya said really worked, then it was a bonus.

"Who do you think are the people who are closest to us, I mean, to the Great Frontier, and who have the strength to threaten us?" Freya said, following William's example, and threw the question away.

"The big border area has basically been pacified. If there are people who have the strength to threaten us, it is first of all the Ottoman Empire. William replied.

"Uh......" It was clear that William's answer was beyond Freya's expectations. She was stunned for a moment, and then said unwillingly: "I still think that the threat within the empire is greater. ”

"Really?" William's unavoidable ease of attitude once again made Freya feel very unhappy, but still helpless.

"Let's just think so. William said, "Well, what else?"

"It's inside the empire. So, we need to look for allies within the empire!"

Although things were completely different from what Freya had predicted, her sense of responsibility and mission drove her to continue: "You should know that although the apparent division of the empire was suppressed by Emperor Kalman IV, the secret division of the empire has been irrepressible, and the various regions in the north of the empire are occupied by Protestantism dominated by alchemists. They were at odds with the traditional sectarian realms of the southern part of the empire. Beyond that, Kalman IV was a staunch believer in traditionalism. ”

"No, it's not so much that he's a traditionalist as it's that he's taking advantage of tradition. Because he is the emperor. William corrected Freya's words: "The basis of his rule is the southern part of the empire, where the city is one of the strongholds of traditionalist beliefs. In addition to Franconia, Lombardy was a staunch bastion of traditionalism. In this case, he must, and must be, a staunch traditionalist believer...... It's really pitiful, as an emperor, but he has to be swayed by religious issues, and even his own beliefs have to be forced to change...... But for the emperor, it shouldn't matter what he believes in. ”

William said to himself, "Uh-huh. I basically see what you mean. Speaking of which, to the west of the Great Frontier is the territory of the Protestants. At the same time, the alchemist handed us an olive branch. In fact, we've also benefited from the Alchemist Alliance...... Whether it's talent, resources, or market share. So we should stand with them and form a coalition of Protestants, and then fight against the Emperor. In this way, we have allies within the Empire, and they are very powerful allies who can influence the political situation of the Empire.

And because the Alchemist Alliance is not in sight. So this alliance was ostensibly composed of several princes. Including Loterania, Frisia, including the remnants of the power of Rytjord, and even one of the emperor's two kingdoms, Great Moravia.

In this case, if we join it, with the power of the Hereford family, we can become an important member of the Protestant princes. And with our strength, we can even become the leader of this alliance. With the help of the princes of the Protestant Alliance, and with the power of the Alchemist Alliance, we can even become a new, Protestant emperor after defeating the emperor...... That's what you think, right?"

“......”

Freya didn't think so, of course. She didn't expect so much at all, she didn't expect that this alliance would still have these effects. She simply thought that joining the alliance in such a situation would bring her powerful allies, and at the same time give peace of mind to the western frontier of the Great Frontier region.

"Ah, yes, yes, that's what I thought. Although Freya thought so in her heart. But on the surface, he still pretended to approve of William's words: "How about it, I think about it comprehensively, right?"

"Huh. "It didn't pierce Freya's hide. William chuckled, and then asked a question that left Freya speechless, or rather, something that Freya had never thought of before:

"If they were so strong, why did Lotternia lose? The ultimate victor of the Empire's civil war, I remember it was that man - I mean, Kalman IV. Isn't it?"

“...... Forehead. Of course, Freya couldn't answer at all. She froze for a moment, then watched William look at her with pity. For a while, I felt embarrassed.

"Read more books. William said to her earnestly.

"......," Freya didn't say a word.

"Also, if you think of something interesting, you can come here and tell me. William continued.

While Freya looked at him in amazement, William had already turned around, loaded the hook with bait, and began to fish.

"So, who will take the bait this time?" he said to himself.
