And from Subaru's point of view, Reinhardt has no flaws in both character and strength. Compared with Julius, such a person should be more suitable as a knight to flaunt his existence?
"The words of the Juggernaut... This is the name inherited from our Reinhardt family, but this generation is me."
Not knowing what he was thinking of, Reinhardt showed a wry smile, and said this with some embarrassment.
"As for the title Subaru, 'a knight among knights', how should I put it... there are various differences between that title and the actual qualifications, and it's just a title passed down among the people."
"For some reason, it is difficult for me to compare myself as a knight with other knights. If I have to say it, it can be understood that in the eyes of others, I am a talent independent of the identity of a knight."
Having said that, Reinhardt paused for a moment, then smiled: "But in terms of strength alone, Julius is indeed inferior to me. Although it may sound like boasting, I haven't touched him yet. I have met stronger opponents than me."
'No, that's not bragging at all...'
Regarding the strength of Reinhardt, Subaru still has a certain degree of cognition, that is, the strongest in this world!
Although I don’t know how strong the strongest is, after all, it’s like a manga called One Punch Man, in which the protagonist is the strongest, but how strong is ultimately still needs to be reflected by the opponent, otherwise there is no way able to know.
However, he is already the strongest, and can be said to be invincible. Under such circumstances, he can still maintain a humble heart and perfect morality. Subaru believes that this can definitely be called the 'best knight'.
But although Subaru thought so in his heart, after all Reinhardt also recognized Julius' qualifications as the 'best knight', so Subaru was not going to refute anything.
Rather than the unnutritious behavior of one side praising and the other being humble, it is better to continue to pay attention to the ongoing discussions on the court.
"I have learned that the relationship between the master and the slave is good."
McClutford said: "Well, next I would like to hear, what is the purpose of Lord Anastasia, who was born in Kalaragi, to target the king?"
Although compared to Crusch and Priscilla, McClutford is more optimistic about the gentle and humble Anastasia in front of him.However, after all, Anastasia is from another country, and McClutford still has some hesitation on whether to hand over his country to outsiders.
As for McClutford's question, Anastasia shouted in her heart, 'Come on! '.
This was an opportunity, and just as Crusch used the dragon to lower his own evaluation, Anastasia was going to do the same thing.However, what she wants to do is not to talk about things related to dragons, but another kind of thing that anyone who loves this country will find it difficult to accept at first glance.
"Unfortunately, I don't have a great mind like Miss Crusch, and I don't have the strong self-confidence that I was chosen like Priscilla."
Smiling, Anastasia opened her mouth and said, "If I have to say it, it should be desire..."
"Since the establishment of the Hexin Chamber of Commerce at the beginning, for me, the most important thing is to get what I want, and for me, what I want most is money."
"As for things other than money... let's not talk about the existence of the same value as money."
Anastasia glanced at Subaru, and then retracted her eyes without leaving a trace.
"If it's the next level, it should be... the country that belongs to me."
"Does that mean that the state is placed on the scale of material desire?"
McClutford temporarily ignored Anastasia's point of view that the status of the country was placed after money, but continued to ask.
"If it's just that, it's fine. After all, maybe if I'm satisfied with this, I'll be able to stop."
If she just got a country of her own, Anastasia certainly couldn't be satisfied, because from the beginning, the country was already a second-level status in her heart.
"Even if you get a kingdom, you still can't be satisfied... At that time, you have to go to the higher goal to get involved with the kingdom..."
Get more money, get more things you don't have, even if you use the country as a bargaining chip.This was the thought that Anastasia had before she was reborn, before she met Subaru.
"Do you use the country as a pedal..."
"It's okay to say that, after all, what I have already belonged to me completely, and what I have is to contribute to my next passion and desire, all to satisfy me next pursuit."
"To become the past of this country, for me, it is just to satisfy the enthusiasm at this stage..."
Strong material desire and money view, this is an extremely normal behavior in Anastasia's view, because for her life, the most important thing in this world is money, so far the only thing that can have the same status as money is Just Subaru as a lover.
However, other people's ideas cannot agree with this point, and Anastasia is also very clear about how "abnormal" it is to compare the behavior of things and even countries with money, desire, and material things that are extremely normal in her own eyes.
It was precisely because she was clear that she wanted to say this even more.
"In this way, I should become the image of a greedy businessman who is not greedy~"

Chapter 172 Subaru's Counterattack
Julius was a little confused by what Anastasia said. Although what Anastasia said was not a lie or anything, she should have been able to speak better.
Indeed, as Anastasia said, her desire to become a king is only based on her own material desires and the idea of wanting to get more. She even has the idea of using the country as a bargaining chip if she is not satisfied even so.
However, being a businessman is even more about the art of language. If it was Anastasia, she would have been able to use her eloquence even if she told the truth, but she would also be able to wrap herself in a convincing coat, making everyone think that it is better than focusing on money. And material desires, she is more of a higher level of ambition.
However, even if he was confused, Julius, who knew his identity as a knight, would not question or refute his master. No matter what he could ask in private, all he needed to do was to agree And fully support Anastasia's behavior as the master.
"Then, the next candidate - Lady Emilia. And the knight, Subaru Natsuki."
When Marcos, the leader of the Knights, mentioned Emilia's name, there were rustling voices among the nobles in the arena and the inside of the Council of Sages, and Subaru vaguely heard "half-demon" several times. ' and the like.
"Pleiades……"
"Don't worry, am I such an impulsive person?"
"That's right, I was worrying too much. Your words will definitely help Lady Emilia."
After a brief conversation with Reinhardt, Subaru and Emilia walked up to the center of the hall between the thrones.
"Lord Emilia, and... the knight, Subaru Natsuki?"
Looking at Emilia and Natsuki Subaru standing in the center, McClutford pondered for a moment, and then focused his attention on Natsuki Subaru.
"The naming method is a bit different from Lugnica's, and it looks a bit unfamiliar. Excuse me, you... are not from the Knights of the Guards, are you?"
"As you see it now, Lord McCrotford."
Facing McClutford's question, Subaru took a step forward and replied.Noticing the concerned gaze from Emilia beside him, Subaru responded with a smile.
"I'm not a member of the Guards Knights, and I'm not from Lugnica. If I have to say... well, I should be called a traveler who travels everywhere."
"Then, what was the opportunity to become Lord Emilia's knight?"
"It's just that I met Lady Emilia by chance and helped her appropriately. Thanks to Lady Emilia's attention, I have served Lady Emilia as a 'knight' since then."
The real situation was met when Emilia accidentally lost the badge of Wang | Xuan, but obviously this matter cannot be said here.As the Dragon Priestess, she lost the badge to prove her identity, which will undoubtedly lower Emilia's own evaluation.
And just like the way Reinhardt introduced Felut before, Subaru decided to follow the gourd painting and make the same response method, that is to say, on the premise of not lying, blur the specific incident situation, and use this way as an answer.
"Hmm... Is that so? It's better to have a fixed residence than to travel without a fixed place."
McRotford, who had a general idea of the situation, didn't think about the specifics of the encounter between Subaru and Emilia. The reason he asked Subaru was only because he was curious about Subaru's identity.
"Also, this way of meeting is indeed somewhat similar to the first encounter between a 'knight' and a 'princess' in a storybook. I think you and Lady Emilia get along well."
"Then, next, Lady Emilia, please introduce yourself."
Hearing McClutford mention her name, Emilia didn't feel the slightest nervousness or embarrassment, she just took a step forward relaxedly as usual, and a sweet and clear voice sounded from her mouth.
"It's the first time meeting you, my lords from the Wise Men's Association. My name is Emilia, and I don't have a family name, so please just call me Emilia."
"Lord Emilia, judging from your ears... are you an elf?"
Of course, McClutford knew Emilia's identity, or there should be no one present who didn't know Emilia's identity, otherwise no one would have said the word 'half devil' just now.
However, as a matter of form, Emilia needs to introduce herself and her motivation for participating in Wang | Selection, etc. These issues are an unavoidable part.And if she can't even bear this kind of pressure, then there is no need to look forward to what she will do in the subsequent competition for the throne.
"No, to be precise, it's a half-elf."
Emilia answered without any hesitation about McClutford's question.
Maybe she in the past, before her rebirth, would hesitate about this kind of identity issue involving a half-elf, and she would feel inferior in the face of other people.Well, now she has changed a long time ago.
She is no longer the one who needs to be pushed by others to move forward at any time, has no independent opinion, is not confident, will hesitate in the face of any choice, and waits for others to make choices for her.
During her time as a 'captive', at the end of her time 'incarcerated' by Subaru who became the 'Purge King', she had made a change.
Do you continue to let others make choices for you and push yourself forward, or do you choose what to do, what you want, and what kind of future you want?
Emilia made a change, and even chose to face the Juggernaut for this reason. All she wanted was to be alone.
And it's the same now, since she took that step, she has grown up, even if she is facing the Council of Wise Men who still control the country of Lugnica, so what?
There is no need to be nervous or hesitate, she just needs to be herself, and her goal has not changed from the beginning to the end, she just wants to be with Subaru.
However, although Emilia was able to reveal her identity as a half-elf without hesitation, those nobles and members of the Sage Society who heard Emilia's answer couldn't sit still.
A bald old man in the Sage Society stood up. Veins appeared on the forehead of the tall old man, and he looked at Emilia with eyes full of disgust.
"Filth! It's actually a silver-haired half-demon, even if it's just allowed to enter the throne room, it should be a bit of a panic, why didn't you notice it!"
The bald old man didn't just know Emilia's identity, it's just that he never had the opportunity to target Emilia like this before.Just like the original group of civil servants alluded to the unworthy people among the king|chosen ones, before Emilia admitted her identity as a half-elf, no one could directly target her.
And now when Emilia admitted her identity, all the malice came to her face.
"Your Excellency Bordeaux, you've said it!"
"Your Excellency McClutford, do you understand? The silver-haired half-demon is exactly the same as the 'jealous witch' who was handed down, isn't it? In the past, half of the world was sucked dry, and all creatures were forced to go up. The shattering of hopeless chaos. Don't say you don't know!"
"..."
McRotford wanted to stop the bald old man from continuing. He was not someone who would listen to gossip and allow fear to breed. Although he knew the taboos of the silver-haired half-elf, he also knew that the real witch of jealousy was as early as 400 It was sealed years ago.
However, it is obvious that people who are ready to vent their malice wantonly will not scruple about their own words.
"How much do you think you will tremble with fear even just seeing your appearance and origin? You can come to the throne with such an existence? It's unimaginable... For other countries and citizens, it is already the maximum to disturb the hearts of the people. What's more Needless to say, this is Lugonica, the kingdom of dragons, the land of the Sleeping Witch!"
"Sure enough, we should choose from the other four from the very beginning!"
Facing Bordeaux's angry scolding, Emilia just sighed helplessly.She is well aware of the impact her status will have, but what she didn't expect is that even the sages who control the country will fall into prejudice because of this.
Emilia wanted to respond to Bordeaux's questioning, but before she could speak, Subaru grabbed her arm and shook his head at him, and because of her unreasonable trust in Subaru, Emilia also gave up by Thoughts to respond to yourself.
"Master Bordeaux, interrupt your passionate and generous speech for a moment."
Subaru interrupted Bordeaux's fierce scolding.
Although Subaru didn't know what Emilia was going to say just now, he knew very well that even if he refuted the other party, Emilia probably couldn't make the other party unable to even question him like Priscilla did.
This is not to say that Emilia is inferior to Priscilla, but to say that Emilia is too gentle, although it is not impossible to be tough, but even if the other party is forced to stop the verbal insults, the result is not the same. would change anything.
What Subaru needs to do is to make them truly recognize Emilia as the Dragon Priestess and the successor to the throne!And it just so happened that this Bordeaux who spoke out against Emilia became the prey of Subaru.
"I have also introduced it before. I am Emilia's knight. Those who do not belong to the imperial guard knights are only Emilia's knights who serve her."
"So, under the circumstances, I feel it is necessary for me to say something in order to fulfill my duty as a knight."
