Arad's crooked savior

Chapter 249: Night Talk with Skadi

Despite all his current performances and measures, he has made no secret of his love for the Principality of Belmare and his determination to expel Dros.

But Queen Skadi still maintained a trace of vigilance towards him in her heart, which stemmed from her own strong lack of security.

After the unfortunate crown prince failed as soon as he got married, Skadi quickly took the position of Queen of Belmare with his extraordinary skills and the unique vision of a businessman's daughter.

It can be seen that her own ability and ambition are directly proportional.

Since there is no way to resist this "everyone gets what he needs" marriage, then he can take advantage of the unlucky crown prince's status as princess to control Bellemare in one fell swoop, completely getting rid of the fate of being controlled. At least her personal destiny is free.

When she was told by Celia that Ye Lin had the "Seal of the Sky" of the great magician Mar, she felt ecstatic first, and then worried.

Because Mal is the orthodoxy of the principality!

She could still remain stable when talking about the giant beast of the sky, but as Yelin's reputation grew, until Queen Meia personally wrote a letter to establish peaceful relations, Minette even bluntly said when she came to visit that Yelin could at some point, Replace all attitudes of the Kingdom of Vanness except for politics and military affairs.

From then on, Skadi discovered that the power behind this man could no longer be underestimated.

If he uses the "Seal of Heaven" to call out, arouse the common people to pay attention to the history of Belmare, and then rely on his increasingly terrifying achievements...

Skadi shuddered hard at that time. She was able to take power in Belmare by virtue of her status as "Princess", so why couldn't Yelin use her status as "Maer's disciple" to repeat her old tricks.

Although she once teased whether Lobach could "abdicate the throne and make way for someone more worthy", the fact is that after sitting on the throne for so many years, she really had to give it up?

Don't be kidding, it's impossible.

What troubles Skadi the most is that ministers have performed meritorious service. The monarch should reward officials and nobles, so that she can feel more at ease.

However, Queen Meia suddenly came out halfway and took the lead...

Apart from some preferential privileges given to Celia, she seems to have given him nothing at the moment.

In other words, theoretically she has been "whoring" Ye Lin for nothing.

what to do?

"Sorry, I got distracted. Did you write to say that the apostle named Dirich has arrived in Nosmar?"

Skadi apologized guiltily and calmed down. Now, compared to the legitimacy of the throne, the apostle of disaster is obviously more important.

"Yes, fortune teller Alice has noticed traces of Ta, Her Majesty the Queen..."

"Just call me Skadi," she interrupted.

"Skady, how much of the population of Nosmar was finally evacuated?"

Ye Lin didn't pretend to be pretentious and directly asked a question that he was very concerned about.

As for the other party's distraction just now, he probably guessed the reason, but now is not the time to point it out.

Skadi frowned, took a deep breath, and the hand holding the tea cup trembled slightly:

"About...70%."

A very subtle ratio, it represents that the majority of the Norsmar people were saved, but also means that nearly one-third of the residents may have unfortunately perished.

well……

Ye Lin looked up at the bright lights and the sound of rain falling outside. He suddenly felt exhausted. He slowly closed his eyes and said helplessly:

"The alchemists headed by Norton and Dark Elf Morgan will cooperate with the clergy in a few days and station outside Northmar. If any mild patients escape, they can use the vaccine developed by Noipela to , maybe we can save some more.”

For more than an hour after that, the two of them finalized various matters that needed attention and various emergency measures in great detail.

This war against Lord Di must make Belmare's strong and positive side appear.

Unknowingly, Skadi felt himself let out a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his heart, with an elegant smile.

Because she suddenly realized that Ye Lin seemed a bit "immature".

Although he had an excellent view of the overall situation, he seemed to know the apostles well and offered many constructive and valuable suggestions.

But in many details of comforting the common people of the principality, he obviously lacks knowledge and often thinks poorly.

"That's right. I have been the Queen for so long, and I have always stood from Bellemare's perspective. He has never held power before, and of course he has no experience."

Skadi was silently happy. Such a person is not suitable to be a monarch, at least not now. Instead, he is a bit like a carefree little prince.

"Sometimes, I envy you adventurers. It's great to be carefree and free."

Her eyes were full of longing, and she had really never left Hedunmar since she became queen.

"How can you be carefree?" Ye Lin shook his head and denied, "If you are not careful, you may lose your life."

After saying that, he glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already past ten o'clock at night.

"It's getting late, do you need me to arrange a guest room?"

Skadi was keenly aware of his eyes and took the initiative to ask him if he wanted to stay in the palace for one night. The servants could arrange accommodation in ten minutes.

Ye Lin smiled and declined the other party's kindness. There was another person at home who was scared into a cat by his second sister, and he didn't know what his current condition was.

As soon as I opened the door, a cold feeling mixed with late night and rain hit my face, making my body feel cold, which was in sharp contrast to the warm and comfortable living room.

In the quiet and deep palace, except for Skadi's room, only a few rooms still had lights on.

That's where Lobach and his servants lived.

Deserted and lonely, it felt like a cold palace instead of a royal palace.

"Is it unexpected? I usually live in the city hall's house and rarely come back to the palace."

Scardy was wearing a small black shawl and stood quietly beside him, his eyes full of helplessness and bitterness.

Her current mood was like the dripping rain.

Ye Lin hesitated for a moment and then suggested, "Why don't you let Lobach accompany you? At least we can have a few words."

"Lobach? She said Ghost Hand is too dangerous, so she won't come." Skadi felt helpless.

Instead, Ye Lin nodded in understanding. The twisted ghost hands are still disgusted and feared by ordinary people.

Carriers of ghost hands may also suffer from various psychological problems.

"I know that you are the descendant of Lord Marr, and you will find ways to protect Bellemare, both emotionally and rationally."

He was surprised by Skadi's sudden opening, and he just nodded silently. Yes, this was a reason.

"Then can you tell me what I can do for you?"

Her brows were worried but her eyes were rarely serious. Seeing his confusion, she murmured:

"I, or Bellemare, have inherited too much from you. I have a hunch that you will even expel Dros from Bellemare in the future. As the king of a country and the queen of a country, I don't know that you can do anything for me. What does the hero do?"

abdicate?

Celia said he didn't have that intention, he was an adventurer.

Become an official or a noble?

Minette also said that he didn't care at all. The title of dark elf was still forced on him. There was no use for adventurers to ask for it.

Give money?

He is already the richest man in Bellemare.

Ye Lin smiled and shook his head: "Her Majesty the Queen..."

"Scadi," she said dissatisfied.

"Haha, my fault, Skadi, the source of the plague has not been driven out, the Dros Empire is still eyeing you, and the principality has not regained its freedom, yet you start to want to reward you based on your merits? If this spreads out, are you not afraid of the congressmen impeaching you? "

Faced with Ye Lin's sudden teasing, Skadi's words rarely froze, and then he thought about it carefully, and it seemed to make sense, and his cheeks turned red with embarrassment.

"You are the king and I am the minister. I will receive whatever you give me in the future, even if it is just a gold coin or a commendation."

As the saying goes, "If you are not in your position, you will not be responsible for your political affairs." To put it another way, it almost means that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

He is also hinting that he really has no interest in the position of monarch. You can sit calmly and boldly. I can even help you and I am helping you, as long as you are still the queen who believes in "peace".

As if exhausted, Skadi breathed a long sigh of relief and completely let go of the stone in his heart.

Although she only had a habitual pout and smile because she had maintained the etiquette of the queen all year round, her already noble and refined appearance was already indescribably beautiful at this time.

Seeing Ye Lin staring at him, seemingly amazed, Skadi's fingertips trembled slightly and his heart beat faster, but his eyes were a bit dim, but he straightened his expression and said:

"It's raining and the roads are slippery. Please be careful when you go back."

"Um……"

After finishing speaking, they looked at each other and smiled.

Skadi bit the corner of his mouth gently, watching the light go further and further away. Suddenly, there was a strange light in his eyes, but not long after, it dimmed again.
