Little Priest's Cat Diary

The King City of Mengast is located in the middle of Mengast. It is not as hot as Portoyas King City in summer, nor as cold as Schulte City in winter. It is a city with a suitable climate.

The former King Mongast died of illness half a year ago, and the current King Nassar was only in his 30s when he succeeded to the throne, and he was in the prime of life.

Although he had several younger brothers, the previous king had been sick for several years, and Nassar had already controlled most of the power when he was still the crown prince. Therefore, the death of the previous king and the change of the throne did not cause too much trouble in Moncaster. turmoil.

On this continent, Mongast is one of the most powerful countries.

The former Portoyas was one of the weakest countries on the mainland.

Because these two countries are neighboring countries, Mengast has been firmly suppressing Portoyas. His predecessor even wanted to take the opportunity to get involved in Portoyas when Portoyas was in chaos and torn apart.

It was only the birth of King David, the wise king, that broke his plan. He used David, who was still a prince at that time, as a proton, and wanted to use him as a puppet to control Portoyas as a prince.

It's just that he didn't expect that this pawn completely escaped his control in the end, fled back to Portoyas, and turned the tide with his own power, reunifying the fragmented Portoyas.

With a bad move, Mengast could only watch Portoyas get rid of his oppression under the leadership of King David, and gradually become stronger to the point where he had to be afraid in the past ten years.

The former king had always been worried about the missed opportunity to annex Portoyas, so Nassar, who often listened to his father talking about it, also remembered it in his heart.

Now, another great opportunity is in front of Mongast.

"Your Majesty, there is actually no need for us to send troops to help Portoyas repel Ston's army."

A middle-aged general said.

"The royal city of Portoyas has already fallen into the hands of the Sea Peoples. Now as long as the Ston army breaks through the city of Schulte and captures or kills Prince Sardis, Portoyas will fall into complete chaos."

"Wouldn't it be more worry-free for us to attack Portoyas at that time?"

In the political affairs room, King Nassar, who was sitting in the upper seat, shook his head.

"Portoyas cannot fall yet."

The young king on the throne has a head of wavy brown hair that falls over his broad shoulders.

He was wearing a black and red robe, with one hand resting on the armrest of the seat.

He has a pair of long eyes, and there is a gleam in the eyes of his subordinates.

"It fell, and we had to face the Stonians and the Sea Peoples directly."

Doing what the subordinates say can indeed save a lot of effort.

Taking advantage of the complete chaos of Portoyas, their army can easily invade Portoyas and occupy most of the territory.

But in this way, Mengast will inevitably face the two powerful enemies of Upperston and the Sea People.

He smiled and said: "Such an easy-to-use barrier is still useful for the time being."

It's good to let Porto Yas help him block and consume the fighting power of the Ston people and the Sea Peoples.

He was just watching.

When the three parties are almost done fighting, heh...

Seeing that Portoyas is in a bad situation now, of course he has to send troops to help him so that he can continue to confront the two major forces.

After all, the longer these three forces confront each other, the more power they consume, and the easier it will be for him to finally wipe them all out.

"Your Majesty, since you have already decided to send troops to help Prince Sardis, there is actually no need to make that request."

An old official with gray temples came out and said.

King Nassar smiled.

"Things that can be obtained easily will not be cherished. If you want to get my help, of course you have to pay a corresponding price."

"But this request is too..."

The old man frowned.

"Although King David is dead, Mrs. Opelila is still the mother of Prince Sardis after all. If the prince rejects you for the sake of dignity, how will we end?"

"Dignity? All I want is his dignity."

Although King Nassar smiled, his eyes were full of coldness.

"I sent troops to help him, but I didn't want to feed tigers. Of course, I had to put a chain around his neck."

As long as Prince Sardis donates his mother and accepts her as his side concubine, then no matter how powerful that prince grows in the future, he will always be inferior to him in front of him.

He smiled contemptuously.

"Of course, the young man has a big temper, so he will definitely not agree at first. But it doesn't matter. When he is beaten badly by the Ston people and his life is in danger, he won't be able to think of any dignity."

Even if you want to be stubborn now, when the country is about to perish, the prince will obediently offer Mrs. Opelila so that he can get help from him.

The people below looked at each other in blank dismay.

After a while, the old official gritted his teeth and spoke again.

"Your Majesty, I still don't feel right."

He said in a low voice, the wrinkles on his forehead were deeply sunken.

"If you want to contain Prince Sardis, you can use other methods, not necessarily..."

The old man hesitated.

He stopped, but the other official beside him couldn't help it anymore, and then he continued.

"Your Majesty, that Mrs. Opelila is an ominous person. Because of her, the father and son fought against each other, causing the kingdom of Klos to perish, and in Portoyas, causing the monarchs and ministers to fight against each other."

"What's more, her husband died one after another, and the world said that she was a woman who brought curse and destruction."

"How can such an ominous daughter become your concubine?"

"It's just a woman, how capable can she be?"

King Nassar waved his hand with a look of indifference.

"What's ominous, it's all nonsense."

The old officials below wanted to persuade them again, but King Nassar had already got up and obviously did not want to continue talking with them on this topic.

Watching King Nassar leave the political affairs room, everyone looked at each other and retreated one after another.

Some looked worried.

Was that ominous woman who had brought one country to ruin and now threatened to bring a second to the brink really coming to Moncaster?

The long corridor was far away. King Nassar stepped forward, and the sound of his footsteps echoed in the empty corridor.

It is now night, and the bright moonlight shines in through the side windows of the corridor.

He turned to look out the window.

In the night sky, a full moon hangs high in the sky like a jade plate, eclipsing even the tiny stars.

That day suddenly appeared in his mind.

It is also a moonlit night.

Standing in the noisy banquet hall, he casually drank the wine in his hand.

The soft tulle flew up, and the moonlight floated on the tulle, pouring like water on the soft figure behind King David.

At that moment, the whole world seemed to be silent.

……

Yes, as his subordinates said, there are other ways to contain Prince Sardis, but he does have his own selfish motives.

He wants that woman.

A glimpse under the moonlight under the tulle.

He once thought that it was just a momentary surprise, which would soon be forgotten.

However, it does not.

The soft and dreamy figure under the moonlight has always been lingering in his mind.

He had to admit that the woman had an irresistible attraction.

It's like being poisoned, once people see it, they can never forget it.

He wouldn't do something stupid like attack a country for a woman.

However, once he had the chance to get that woman, he would never let it go.

…………

........................

The atmosphere in the City Lord's Mansion has been rather depressing recently.

Not only because Ston's [-] troops had already entered the border and approached the city of Schulte, but also because of the words that Mongast's envoy had released in front of everyone two days ago.

The condition for Mengast to send troops is to send Princess Opelina to Moncast.

On that day, Prince Sardis got up and left expressionlessly, and Miya Shaoji also got up and left.

This time the meeting broke up unhappy.

The faces of everyone in the hall were not very good, some were angry, some were frowning, and some were thoughtful.

Some of the generals even had a ferocious look of wanting to eat people, as if they wanted to hit people directly.

But the bold envoy still didn't care about it under the many piercing gazes.

He also claimed that he would stay in Schulte for the time being. Whenever His Royal Highness is willing to agree to King Nassar's request and conclude an marriage relationship with Mengast, he can be summoned at any time.

That determined look made people's teeth itch, and he just wanted to punch him in the face.

Although the words of the Mengast envoy had not been spread publicly, they had spread secretly among the noble officials in the city.

It is normal for a woman to remarry after her husband dies.

Even in the royal family, after the death of the king, the princess can choose to remarry someone else, but after remarrying, she will completely lose her status as a member of the royal family.

This situation is not uncommon in the history of the Portoyas royal family.

It's just that the current situation is completely different from the previous situation where the princess chose to remarry.

Regarding the request made by King Mengast, some people—most of them were generals—were furious, thinking it was an insult to the crown prince.

They all said that even if everyone died in battle, they would never let King Nassar's plot succeed.

However, where there are people, there are differences.

The opposite of the Death Fighters is the Compromise faction.

The Compromisers felt that there was nothing wrong with letting Princess Opelila marry King Moncaster again.

In this way, Portoyas can establish a stable and good relationship with the great country Moncaster.

Portoyas is currently suffering from internal and external troubles, and if he is not careful, it will be a disaster for the country. If Mengast can lend a helping hand, then Portoyas will be able to drive away the invaders soon, regain the royal city, and restore the peace of the past.

In particular, many people have privately felt that Princess Opelila is an unknown woman.

Because of her unknown, her successive husbands died one after another.

Now, even King Davies is dead.

Porto Yas's current miserable situation may have been caused by this woman.

What's more, the unknown princess was able to seduce King Nassar to name important people not long after King David's death, which made many people secretly whisper that the princess is really famous.

Therefore, for the sake of Portoyas, the unknown princess should be sent away.

At first, they were relatively low-key.

But with the passage of time, the silence of the crown prince and the unfavorable situation of the war made the compromise faction grow stronger.

When Ston's [-] troops pressed on, breaking through two cities one after another in just three days, and approaching the city of Schulte, the Compromisers could no longer sit still.

They sent some of the most respected people among them to see Princess Opelila, to tell her the pros and cons, and persuade her earnestly, saying that this is the only way to keep Portoyas.

They asked the princess to take into account the overall situation, put Portoyas as the most important thing, and the continuation of the royal family as the most important thing.

Amidst the chatter of the crowd, Princess Opelila sat there quietly, still with that indifferent expression.

She said nothing, never made a sound.

Her eyes seemed to be looking at the people in front of her, but there was nothing in her eyes.

Everyone is persuading me with your words.

boom!

A loud bang.

It was the sound of a black boot kicking against the door.

It came suddenly, caught off guard, and made a loud noise that almost caused a heart attack.

The chattering voices in the room stopped abruptly.

Everyone turned to look.

The blond crown prince leaned lazily against one side of the door rail, with one long leg stepping high on the opposite door panel.

That posture looked particularly indecent, but it was made by him to give people a lazy and handsome look.

The loud bang that almost shocked people just now was made by him kicking on the door panel.

Seeing that everyone in the room was focusing on him, Sardis retracted his long legs that were stepping on the door.

He said, "Retire all of them."

Although the people who had not yet achieved their goal were still unwilling, they still bowed their heads in obedience under the sharp and almost substantive gaze of the young crown prince, and retreated one by one.

And the oldest collateral noble of the royal family, perhaps relying on his own seniority, opened his mouth before leaving.

"His Royal Highness, you are still young, and you must know that a moment of impatience will only lead to irreparable endings in many cases."

He said earnestly,

"Look at your father, King David. Didn't he endure humiliation for many years in Moncaster before he achieved his success?"

"Your Highness, if you endure for a while, you will have a broader future."

Sardis raised the corner of his mouth, but did not speak.

The old nobleman thought that he had listened to what he was persuading, so he left with satisfaction.

He turned his back to Sardis, so naturally he didn't see the coldness in Sardis' glance at him.

Everyone retreated, leaving only Opelila and Sardis in the room.

Sardis didn't say a word, nor did he look at Princess Opelilla.

He was obviously not interested in talking to Opelila, he just looked at the corridor outside the door, as if he was waiting for someone.

The room was very quiet, and Princess Opelila was still sitting quietly.

Long eyelashes cast rosy shadows on her beautiful face.

She lowered her eyes slightly, as if all the hustle and bustle in this world had nothing to do with her.

She was cut off from the world from beginning to end.

Ever since she came to Schulte, Princess Opelila has lived in seclusion and never stepped out of her room.

Similarly, Sardis has never stepped here once.

This is the second time the two have met since they met when Princess Opelila was first escorted here.

After all, they didn't want to see each other either.

Now the second meeting is for the purpose of giving it to King Nassar. I have to say that this is a very ironic thing.

After a long silence, Princess Opelilla raised her eyes.

Her eyelashes lifted slightly, like the wings of a butterfly, light and fragile.

Her eyes are like emeralds placed in the most arctic ice and snow, a lifeless and extremely beautiful.

She said, "When will you send me to Moncaster?"

The air in the room seemed to stand still for a second.

Sardis turned around.

The pupils of different colors stared at Princess Opelila.

There was no emotion on that handsome face that had no resemblance to the princess.

His expression was inexplicably calm.

He walked towards the princess.

step.

two steps.

When the second step landed.

When he walked to the door of the princess.

The momentum of Sardis' whole body changed abruptly.

His eyes suddenly burst into a thrilling hostility.

It's like a male lion who was lazily lying on the grass just now, and the moment it was angered, a fierce aura burst out——

He punched out.

The strength is so strong that you can almost hear the whistling sound of the wind piercing through the air.

"Sadie-!!!"

A loud shout accompanied by the sound of hurriedly running footsteps suddenly sounded from behind.

The turbulent hostility in Sardis's eyes was suddenly fixed like a storm.

The punch he swung brushed past the princess' cheek.

The blown fist blows the princess' long golden hair flying high.

A loud bang.

That punch hit the back of the chair behind the princess.

After a crisp crackling sound, the obsidian stone base cracked in all directions with cracks like spider webs centered on that punch.
