3 The eldest lady and the maid

The Mother of Goblins is the creator of the entire goblin race, the founder of the Holy Goblin Empire, and the original goblin queen.

The source of the blood of all goblins is derived from the mother of goblins, and it is said that her power is close to that of the true gods, and she has left records and myths in different kingdoms.

But hundreds of thousands of years have passed since the time of origin of the original empire.

In such a long time, the Fairy Mother has not appeared in reality again, and only when some extremely good descendants of the Fairy Royal Family appear, the Fairy Mother has a chance to give gifts.

But not every outstanding descendant of the royal family can be gifted by the mother of the great goblins at the coming-of-age ceremony.

Although Ophelia is not very old, she is the best of the twelve royal descendants, and even has the qualifications to inherit the next throne. In order of talent, she is the third in line of succession.

"My dear sister, with your gifts, there is a good chance that you will be blessed by the Mother of Elves. The fourth princess Sylvia, a fairy woman with short purple hair and a somewhat strong and capable temperament, patted her sister's little head with a smile: "Even if you don't get the gift, with your talent, it won't take long for you to be promoted to the Great Goblin of the Nine Rings when you become an adult." ”

The Nine Rings is the watershed of goblin magic, the beginning of the qualitative change of the soul, and the power of magic increases exponentially, to this point, in the entire Holy Goblin Empire, it is also the backbone of the combat power.

"But... I am a royal family, and the nine rings are far from enough. Ophelia's blue pupils reflected an inexplicable luster: "The empire needs me, the people need me." ”

Hoping to be able to take charge of the empire as soon as possible, this is the simple idea of the little princess at the coming-of-age ceremony. - When many children grow up as adults, they always want to do something to impress their family and friends.

"Okay, okay, dear sister, the Empire really needs you. Sylvia stroked the fairy girl's long hair and said soothingly, "But you are still very young, you can take your time." ”

Then she paused for a moment, and then changed her words: "Today is your rite of passage, and you should enjoy your youth and not bother too much about anything else." - When I go out, my father and mother will look at it!"

"Whew..."

Ophelia exhaled deeply when she heard this, and she patted her hot cheeks to calm down some hot emotions.

My sister is right, today is her coming-of-age ceremony, there are many large and small nobles in the empire, and there are also fathers, queens and queens watching from the side, but you can't go out with a straight face like this.

"By the way, after the coming-of-age ceremony today, you also need to immediately pick out your guard knights, who will become the sword and shield in your hand, this is a ritual that every royal adult must go through. Sylvia watched her sister regain her composure, and then pulled out a parchment booklet from the handmaid next to her, "Guarding knights means a lot to the royal family. Here is a list of candidates, so you should try to check them out while it's still early, so you might as well be prepared. ”

Different from ordinary knights, the royal family's guard knights, usually only about one or three, belong to the personal guards of the royal family, and are also the most direct and reliable subordinates, all of whom are selected from the knight families with high loyalty.

This is a traditional ritual that has been passed down by the royal family for many years, and it is a process that every member of the royal family must go through after the coming-of-age ceremony.

"Okay, sister. ”

Ophelia took the parchment booklet, placed it on the table in front of her, and read it carefully.

She turned over the first three or four, all of them were handsome and handsome adult goblins, with strength above the seven rings, pure blood, and they were all from famous knight families.

With the family background and vision of the seventh princess, she has naturally seen many outstanding young talents, and her expression has not changed much, just looking at the descriptions of these people, nodding her head from time to time.

But when she got to the sixth, her gaze paused for a moment, revealing some doubt.

Ophelia's bright red lips pursed lightly, stretched out her white and almost transparent fingers, pointed to the picture of the sixth candidate, and asked the sister next to her in a low voice: "Sister, this little girl, is it really the reserve of the guard knights?"

That's a little too youthful in appearance...

No, it should be said that it is a young appearance, it looks like the figure is not fully developed, short and small, and there is a little pink class love.

In fact, the age written next to him is indeed only in his early two hundreds, and he belongs to a real goblin child.

The strength is only five rings...

Is this a descendant of a very powerful nobleman who came in through the back door?

"What do you say about her?" Sylvia glanced at the picture of the candidate, but didn't pay much attention to it, just said casually: "Natalie Thomson, her father Ogg is a knight of the Royal Lord, and his ancestors and grandchildren have served the royal family for three generations, and his loyalty can be guaranteed. As for the little girl herself, her strength is still average, but because her talent is quite good, she is eligible to be selected for the reserves. ”

"Talented?"

Ophelia is a little curious, and it should be really good to be said by her sister that she has a good talent.

"When she was about one hundred and eighty years old, she was detected by the fairy school where she was located, and the awakened pure gold bloodline belonged to one of the main branches of the initial bloodline. ”

Sylvia smiled and explained.

For her sister's guard knight reserves, she naturally made a lot of effort to understand, and for the basic information of these reserves, what she did and what she said, she had to have an accurate data analysis.

This is due to the protector's mentality, so the relevant investigation is indispensable.

"Pure gold blood... That's a high-level goblin. ”

Ophelia nodded abruptly.

All the goblin bloodlines come from the mother of goblins, but in the natural evolution of these hundreds of thousands of years, the original initial bloodline has been continuously diluted and diverted with the reproduction of goblins, and now in the heyday of the empire, there are basically not many goblins with a high concentration of bloodlines. - Except for the royal family and the great nobles.

The pure gold bloodline is one of the high-level bloodlines, and it is a high-level goblin, and those who have this bloodline are generally big nobles.

"yes... It's a pity that he was born in the family of an ordinary knight lord, otherwise he would not have been drafted as a reserve for the knights. Sylvia nodded, but then said: "But don't just look at this little girl's talent, her personality is quite rebellious, and she is very lazy, and she doesn't like to practice fairy magic at all, otherwise with her bloodline, it will not be more than the five-ring level." ”

"Oh, that's right..."

Ophelia was still a little interested, but when she heard this description, she immediately turned to the next page with some disappointment.

Strength can generally be considered, and if the character is not good, there is no room for negotiation at all, and the royal family prefers subordinates who are easily controlled.

......

"Cuicui, let me tell you, this draft... Phew, choose a knight, I'm sure I can't be chosen. Xu Xianxian glanced at Og who was sitting in the front seat, and then lost the original elegant lady's disguise, and whispered to the maid next to him: "If you become a princess's knight, you have to sign a deed of sale, work hard to be a bodyguard, and you will be slaughtered if you don't do it the right way, and whoever loves to do that kind of dangerous work will do it." ”

Nearest the king nearest the gallows.

This kind of thing is the same in the empire of any world.

In other words, any living being, as long as the level is not equal, will encounter this situation. It's like humans growing vegetables and using vegetables, have you asked the idea of vegetables in this process?

Naturally, I won't ask.

The royal family would not ask the knight what he thought, because there was no need at all.

"Then eldest lady, are you going to wreak havoc at the coming-of-age ceremony?" Cuicui turned her head, still with that cold expression, delicate green pupils, and looked at her eldest lady quietly: "If you really do this, you will let all of us be buried together." ”

Even if she said the fairy language of accompanying the funeral, the maid Cuicui's voice still did not change, and it was cold to the bones.

"Hey, hey!" Xu Xianxian's expression froze, and then he looked at Og who was unresponsive in front of him, and then leaned into the ear of the maid Cuicui: "In the eyes of your maid, I am so stupid?

"I deliberately pretended to be weak at the coming-of-age ceremony at that time, so what kind of broken princess will definitely not look down on me, won't she escape?"

"Oh. The maid Cuicui was sitting on her lap, and replied indifferently, her emerald green pupils looked at the other party for a long time, and then she rarely showed a puzzled expression: "Miss, you don't have to deliberately pretend to be weak, but you are very weak yourself, and your charm magic has no effect on me." ”

The maid Cuicui is a seven-ring mage, and Xu Xianxian is now...

But there are only five rings.

"You...?"

It's okay to be ridiculed for being stupid, but it's still being ridiculed for being weak?

Is this my most loyal servant?

Xu Xianxian instantly felt angry, her red pupils were dripping and spinning, and she didn't know how to reply for a while.

She could only look each other up and down, but after noticing the maid's bumpy and hot body, she couldn't help but light up, and thought of an excellent threat: "Believe it or not, after I go back, I'll ask you to accompany the bed?"

This is the usual trick of the aristocratic lord, the maid is the complete property of the master, and sleeping with her is only the simplest part.

“......”

When the maid Cuicui heard this threat, she didn't react at all, but looked at the red-haired goblin's head with some curiosity, and then glanced at the other party's soft little arms and legs, and then turned her head again, looking straight ahead with a calm face.

From start to finish, she didn't have any emotional fluctuations.

Ahhh

What the hell was that look in the eyes just now?!Was it a mockery?!Sure enough, it was a mockery?!It must have been a mockery!

The question is what are you laughing at me?!

The little girl almost jumped out of her seat, and she couldn't help but let out a roar of rage in her heart.

Early in the morning, Xu Xianxian was angry with her maid.
