sweet conquest of the devil gl

The first time is raw and the second time is familiar, the devil is familiar with the Duke's New Year greetings.

"Happy New Year, Uncle." As soon as Floria entered the door, she hurriedly raised her skirt and saluted, fooling around with this year's tasks.Francis actually wrote to her specifically asking her to go to the capital to pay New Year's greetings, something must have happened.

"That's right, the unified speed of the Liuli City-State is very fast." Francis deflected the teacup at an angle.

Floria blindly guessed that he meant please sit down, whether it is or not, please sit down first, and she sat opposite Francis: "It's all thanks to you."

No wonder, the status of Earl Crossel's fiancée did not play a decisive role. It was those useless lords who allowed her to pacify the Liuli City State so quickly.

Relying on the background of their peers, the citizens caught in the crisis of the demon tide made a relatively correct choice.

They don't know whether Floria is good or not, but the original lord is really bad enough.

"I still have a task for you now." Francis gave orders much faster than the others, and before the housekeeper beside him accepted the gift from Floria, His Excellency the Duke flipped over the cards.

"I need you to accompany Princess Lois to the Snow Fort near Yilan to meet the Hermore envoy."

why me?Floria also guessed that Lois was brought here by her, and Yilan was her fiancé's territory in name.

"Uncle, my title is a bit inferior." Floria showed her weakness generously: "My niece unified the Liuli City with the help of the tiger skin, and the minister who accompanied the princess to meet the envoy, let a mere knight go against the rules ?”

The spirit of the contract must be adhered to. Since the Liuli City-State is unified, Francis should fulfill his promise.

"Why do you think I want you to go to the capital with a dress?" Francis stood up, and the butler approached silently, putting on a large cloak for him.

This cloak is covered with dark lines, and silver roses bloom in the dark sky.

"Forgive my niece for being stupid." A guess gradually emerged, and Floria's steps became brisk.

The New Year's snowflakes fluttered in the corridor, and the bell of the New Year's banquet rang at the moment Francis stepped into the main hall.

"Happy New Year, Sir Francis." Princess Joanna was sitting on the throne.

【ice and snow】

Floria raised her face and a word came to her mind.

There is a huge difference from Joanna in the past, and now she is more in line with the status of [Crown Prince].

Pure white clothes, dignified posture, calm expression.

It's hard to imagine that the girl who was so jumpy before will become what she is now. Is it because of growth?

"Happy New Year, Your Highness, the time has come." Francis' attitude towards Joanna also made Floria look sideways.Feeling a little...on guard?

Francis actually reacted like this, it seems that things are getting interesting.

If it wasn't Princess Joanna but someone else made him a little bit on guard, he would definitely be eliminated directly.

The Duke standing in front had said so, and the others, including Floria behind the Duke, were naturally more respectful.Everyone naturally spread out to make way for Joanna.

Most of the people in this hall are from the Francis faction, and they are also fans of Princess Joanna. Everyone wears a docile mask on their faces.

Joanna stood up from the throne and walked towards the center of the hall step by step.

New Year's rituals were ancient, and last year she had so disliked the walk to Francis.

But now the situation is different, and her heart is full of courage.

[I will definitely become a stronger king, stronger than anyone else. 】

The world needs me, a real virtuous king.

Princess Joanna stretched out her hand and held down the gemstone staff in the center of the hall. The flame representing royal power ignited the magical passage leading to the sky. The entire castle was lit with the royal emblem at the same time, and the egret's wings were fully unfolded.

"Everyone, I will guide you."

"Yes, Your Highness Joanna!" The nobles possessed themselves one after another, offering praise to the supreme princess and expressing their desire to follow.

"Your Highness."

Francis' voice silenced the surroundings, he took a step forward, and at the same time signaled for Floria to follow: "My niece has pacified the entire Glazed City for you, and now please give her a more suitable honor."

Floria held up her skirt and offered her blessings to the princess.

The warm candlelight and magical flames reflected on her long golden hair, her innocent smile, and her slightly immature age were as beautiful as the flowers of early spring.

The nobles all knew who this was. In the past year, she was a sharp blade that cut through all the fools who dared to face the sharp edge.

Absolute dominance, governance ability beyond ordinary people's imagination.

It is said that there are several powerful business talents supporting her, and even the arrival of the magic tide will not be able to impact the people's livelihood of Liuli City.

Whether she is a puppet in Francis' hands or not, no one wants to be chopped by sharp ridges.

"Come to me, Floria." Joanna's eyes fell on Floria.

She is Francis' pawn now, and she can be my pawn in the future.

"Yes, Your Royal Highness." Floria walked in front of Joanna.

Before she knelt down on one knee, Joanna drew out her sword and pressed it on Floria's shoulder: "In the name of Princess Milkvia, I announce that Floria Grint is the new Earl of Liuli City. .”

Such a scene is a bit weird, some old-fashioned nobles look at each other in blank dismay.

The New Year's banquet is grand enough, but making an earl is still a relatively formal thing, how can it be so... a joke.

Moreover, the Glazed City State itself is a collective term, and this enfeoffment is too general, and the specific territory of the Earl of Trust cannot be defined.

But each of them understands the principle of observing words and expressions.Duke Francis and Princess Joanna looked serious, and no one dared to laugh.

The speed of withdrawing the sword was very slow, and the princess' eyes kept falling on Floria, until Floria raised her eyes, and the pupils of similar colors collided together.

Floria straightened up, looked at the applauding nobles around her, and suddenly understood Joanna's last slightly lonely eyes.

It's too boring, how many times has the princess experienced such a repeated scene.

At the end of the party, Floria walked out of the castle under the guidance of the waiter. Barbatos and the carriage should be waiting for her just outside the street——

"Miss Floria, please stay."

Looking back, a pair of pure gold eyes that belonged only to Lois came into view, and Floria's heart skipped a beat.

Oops, this Son of Light is probably one of the most likely humans around to do Barbatos harm?With such a close distance, I don't know if Barbatos avoided it in time.

"Lois, long time no see." Floria walked a few steps quickly to meet Lois and stand in front of her.

Forced to stop by the sudden approach, Lois had to take half a step back: "Floria, long time no see."

She reached out, took Floria's hand, and shook it.

These hands are very warm, very special in winter nights.

"Lois called me, what's the matter?" Floria walked to the other side.

"Miss Floria, Duke Francis told me before that you would go to the border with me." Lois walked side by side in the darkness with her.

Walking with the Son of Light, there is a sense of security that no matter where you go, you will not encounter danger.

It would be scary to think about it as an enemy of her.

"Yes, I'm just a mascot representing Milkowia." Floria's smile showed no flaws.Francis felt that this matter was completely unimportant, so he handed it over to her.

"Floria, is your engagement a similar transaction?"

Floria gasped for breath.

"This engagement isn't so bad." Her smile really became a superficial mask.Thinking of this incident gives me a headache, Earl Crossel is no longer the devil of Crossel, how do I kill him?

But it is impossible to get married, marry this teenager?She would rather marry the devil.

Under the dim light, Lois looked at Floria's profile.

She is really more rational and stronger than imagined.

From the moment her heart beat faster, she couldn't help but want to know her.

In the patchwork of countless messages, she slowly saw an ambitious girl.

It looks weak, but it is actually very strong.Lois even felt that she might be stronger than herself.

Compared with myself who followed everyone's instructions step by step and learned all kinds of knowledge, the girl around me had a good time in both going against the wind and rising with the trend.

So, as a princess, she fled the country, and Floria, who was originally a knight, climbed to the position of earl, right?

"Please rest assured, Floria."

"Of course, Lois." The king is only worried that you will chop up the cute little Barbatos with your sword.

"In addition to the guards provided by the Knights of the Church and Duke Francis, I have also hired powerful adventurers to accompany us, and nothing will happen to you." Lois stopped in her tracks and put her hands on Floria's shoulders. The golden eyes looked at her intently.

Floria didn't wave it away, and this gesture probably had no other meaning.

Because she was too short, it was easy for the other party to do so.

"A powerful adventurer?" Floria felt the need to ask clearly, she had a vague guess.

"Alexia the Devil Hunter, a professional in hunting down evil cultists."

really!Alexia sister is really everywhere.

"Why hire professionals who hunt cultists? Isn't the Hermore envoy meeting us?"

"Didn't Duke Francis say that? We are meeting with members of the Yanshen Church." Lois broke apart and explained: "Although the Yanshen Church is an orthodox church, different churches will still be wary of each other when they come into contact with each other."

"That's it~"

"Floria's carriage is here? I'll take you there." Lois held her hand again.

"Hehehe, I forgot~"

By the time Floria made a detour back to the hotel, the hour hand had moved to the second half circle.

In the end, I rented a carriage and came back... Fortunately, Lois was only delivered to the hotel, and did not enter the door.As soon as Floria reached the stairs, she hugged her horizontally with both hands.

"Your Highness, welcome back, would you like to have a snack or take a bath first?"

"Why, there is no third option?" Floria stretched her body and lay down in the most comfortable position.

"What option does Your Highness like?"

Barbatos can fly indoors as fast as he can, and when he comes to the bathroom, he puts Floria in hot water.Neither the separation of the clothes nor the heating of the water seemed to take time.

Before Floria could figure out how to answer, three puffs decorated with chocolate came over.

"Your Highness, haven't you figured it out yet?" The golden fork was inserted into the puff ball and slowly approached.
