Spellcasting Heavens

Leshan City was once the capital of a small principality. After it was forcibly annexed by Harrison, it underwent several reconstructions and expansions and eventually became the most prosperous and important city along the river. It even served as part of the administrative and military Responsibilities of the Center.

However, as the huge country fell into civil strife, it failed to withstand Kerwin's brutal army.

After a period of symbolic resistance, the frightened nobles took the initiative to send envoys to negotiate, and announced their surrender to the tyrant on the condition of retaining their title, personal safety and property security.

Therefore, although it experienced a short war, the city was not seriously damaged, and the residents in the city did not suffer much loss. Coupled with the people who fled from other places, the commercial and trade activities in the entire region quickly recovered as before.

Standing on the highest arrow tower in the city and looking down, you can clearly see the busy merchants selling goods in the market, as well as the endless flow of people. The number is even greater than before the war began, and the transportation of goods is also extremely frequent.

Especially the Seolo Palace, known as the palace of art, holds banquets almost every night, and the bright magic lights can be seen clearly even from hundreds of meters away.

Every resident living in the city knew that the host of the banquet was none other than the notorious Princess who killed her biological father with her own hands.

Most people have extremely complicated feelings about this young and beautiful princess.

There is both strong anger and contempt, because she cut off the country's last possibility of recovery, and there is also a little gratitude, because it is she who has guarded the last piece of pure land in this chaotic era, allowing people who long for peace to have a stable life. The place.

Queen, in this current situation full of war and chaos, it is not an easy job.

What's more, she is just a puppet queen. She doesn't even have an army loyal to her, and she relies entirely on Kerwin's support.

In order to make up for her biggest shortcoming, she had to desperately win over the nobles who came over to her, trying to use their strength to form a kind of political capital, and then get her hands into the army bit by bit.

Violence is the basis for a monarch to maintain power, and it is also the basis for a country to maintain its own stability.

If a monarch cannot control the army, then the real power is no longer in his hands.

If a country's military is not in its own hands, it cannot have an independent will and cannot develop according to its own wishes.

Obviously, this new country is actually a puppet, a buffer zone that Kerwin deliberately supported in order not to irritate the sensitive nerves of his surrounding neighbors, just to swallow it when the time is right.

The young princess hopes to get rid of control, truly build a country of her own, and even one day defeat her brothers and sisters to restore the glorious empire created by her father.

…

Accompanied by the beautiful music played by the harp, countless bright-looking men and women in the gorgeous palace are holding hands and dancing happily.

They looked so carefree, as if they had forgotten the war that was still going on across the river.

Perhaps as a saying goes, the only lesson humans learn from history is that they learn no lessons at all.

No, after only enjoying a few days of peace, the nobles and scholars selectively forgot about the hardships of fleeing.

The old habits started to sprout again.

In response to this, the young girl who had just transformed from a princess to a queen couldn't help but sigh slightly and murmured to herself in a voice that only she could hear: No wonder the country created by my father is about to perish. Such a nobleman , such ministers, what can I expect them to do.

Don't be discouraged, Your Majesty. You still have a chance to turn the situation around and get everything back on track. An old man covered in a hood stood behind and comforted in a low voice.

Haha, is it true? If Kerwin dies, His Majesty Willia will return the part of the land she occupied to me? The queen raised her head and stared into the other person's eyes, with unabashed sarcasm in her tone.

She has been influenced by politics and conspiracies, and she has long seen through these people who pretended to be helping her, but in fact none of them had good intentions.

Either he hopes to eradicate the tyrant with his own hands and then divide the land he occupies, or he just wants to muddy the water and follow to see if there are any advantages.

Sorry, I'm afraid this matter will have to wait until Kerwin dies before you go and talk to His Majesty Vilia in person. As he said that, the old man took off his hood to reveal his old and wise eyes.

He is none other than Iseult, who has disappeared for a while.

Although there was no change in appearance, in fact the small bottle of divine blood mixed with blood had been mixed into a potion and he drank it.

Now, the huge vitality contained in the old body is ready to come out, but it has not been completely absorbed yet.

Ah, a delaying tactic. Maybe after Kerwin dies, His Majesty Willia's appetite will be quite scary, isn't it? The girl sneered at herself.

She undoubtedly knows very well that she is just a puppet now and has no room for bargaining.

Either she chooses to be the wife of a tyrant for the rest of her life, allowing the other party to play with and humiliate her. Perhaps after she loses her use value, she will be quietly disposed of, just like her father used to dispose of those disobedient monarchs of small countries.

Either become a tyrant, and then negotiate with those kings, especially the most powerful Queen Vilia, and then regain a relatively independent status and autonomy after paying a certain price.

Of course, even if you think about it with your buttocks, you know that the price will definitely be very painful.

As the saying goes, whichever is the lesser of two evils, no matter how you look at it, the latter is much better than the former.

Iseult smiled and nodded: Her appetite is indeed a bit scary, but I guarantee that the remaining part is still enough to make you a veritable queen. In addition, I just got the news that Kerwin is eating extremely fast He rushed back as quickly as possible. Because he heard that you have been sharing a room with one or two handsome young men every night recently. In this world, some men are very possessive and can make people lose their minds.

You mean...my dear husband doesn't have much of an army with him?

That's right! He is so arrogant that he thinks that the garrison left in this city is enough to control any situation. How about you test the tone of the officer who fell under your skirt and launch a campaign? An assassination and a military coup?”

I will……
