I'm such an old god, so sorry

You don’t need words to know what the girl means. Mistoria did not receive the invitation letter, so the purpose of Xiude’s visit to Lyrebird Bay was not to attend the farewell party of Mirage, since Xiude had already accompanied Cangxia. , Adhering to the etiquette of Friends of the Sword Oath, Cang Xia would also accompany Xiude to do his things.

"Actually, I'm fine..."

Xiude was about to say this, when suddenly there was a whisper of surprise:

"Your Excellency Xiude! I didn't expect to be here...No, it was at the farewell party of His Highness Mirage that I could see you."

An old man with a goatee in a purple robe walked over with a smile on his face. From the badge on his chest, he knew that this was a prince of the [Red Maple] faction.

"you are....."

"Oh, yes..... I haven't officially introduced myself to Your Excellency Xiude."

The old man with goatee.... Said he is an old man. In fact, he can only tell his age from the wrinkles on his face. Unless the professional on Ainfal reaches the point of dying, his physical appearance will be maintained at an appropriate level. position.

Anyway, the old people Xiude has seen so far are all stubborn, so there is no such thing as old age.

"Du Toro should have mentioned to you, Herzlman of [Red Maple] faction."

The other party stared at Xiude with a smile.

"Herzlmann?"

Xiu De was stunned for a few seconds before he suddenly remembered that it was the leader of the [Red Maple] Prince's faction who had invited him over, and then felt subtle embarrassment.

Because he couldn't help letting go of the other party's pigeons openly, and showed that he didn't care about the party in front of others.

Although Xiude dared to ignore the requests of others, Geng would still feel embarrassed up to this level.

Fortunately, Herzlmann did not intend to pursue it. He took the initiative to say:

"Your Excellency Xiude, please forgive me for the mistake of waiting."

Herzlmann bowed slightly, and then said: "Because of a temporary emergency, the contract renewal with the Commercial Alliance was hurriedly completed last night, so I am very sorry... Come on, although I sent someone to meet at the agreed place early, but your Excellency Xiude is not late, I had to bring someone to the farewell party of the Long Night Sword Saint."

Again, the privileges of the princes are everywhere, and it should be the farewell party that only the sword saints came to attend, but there were more princes present than the sword saints.

"It's a coincidence... This is..."

Xiude focused his attention on the young man behind Herzlmann. Although the uniform and delicate face of the sword training academy were the same, the person with bright cherry hair was still very clear in his memory.

"Ah, this is my new attendant, Rui...He is the runner-up of the Intermediate Academy in the Sword Competition not long ago."

Herzlmann patted the young man on the back. The young Sakura-fat boy who looked confident and generous with his dimples in his laughter stepped forward and said hello:

"Your Excellency Xiude, Wild Hunting Sword Saint, Xuanxuan Sword Saint..."

The same cherry-colored eyes were full of longing for the sword master.

It's just that Xiude and Cangxia looked at each other, and they both recognized that this young man was the one that Mirage paid special attention to.

But.... If the mirage really has anything to do with Rui, how can the latter be accepted by Herzlmann as an attendant?

Although the runner-up of a small middle-level academy can be mixed with the leader of the prince's faction, it looks like a great deal, but the name of the sword saint in the long night is not worse than any prince.

The most important thing is that the mirage can better guide a young swordsman's future career path, which is far beyond the glory and wealth given by the prince.

However, the relationship between Rui and Mirage was all speculation of the two Xiude, so they didn't say anything to Rui, and simply responded.

"Your Excellency Xiude, please forgive me to retire. If you can get acquainted with you today, even if you satisfy an old wish, if we have the opportunity, we will revisit the next day."

Seeing that Xiude's hand touched Cangxia's back unconsciously, Herzlmann smiled vaguely and said that he left without interruption.

After the two parties had separated, the high-level of the castle holding the farewell party, mirage looking at Rui beside Herzlmann through the gap of the blinds, and humane the black robe behind him:

"...You, shouldn't move Rui."

Chapter 12 Surrender or Destruction

The Kingdom of Sudor is located in the corner of the north, the northeastern coast of Ainfal. It connects the endless sea and the coastal area of ​​Ainfal. On land, Sudor may not have any foreign exchanges, but in the sea, Sudor The kingdom is a point that every merchant who is interested in commerce and trade across the continent cannot ignore.

The extreme north is a forbidden area for humans. If the merchant ships along the coast of the mainland do not want to double the distance of the original route, they must enter the territorial waters of Suduo, and then directly cross the endless sea of ​​the extreme north with the help of regular ocean currents. To the Ainfar River System.

The places where the Shibaizer Empire sent colonial teams to land are very particular. The former Blueblood Empire didn’t care about the development of Ainfar. If anything, Suduo’s area is definitely The most important thing is its superior geographical conditions, even the arrogant people of the ancient starry sky have to control it.

Relying on its unique geographical advantage, coupled with the legacy of the blue-blooded nobles in the Suduo Kingdom, this ancient land is buried in richer heritage than a great empire.

The Suduo Kingdom is just as its name suggests. Its territory is barely considered a kingdom, but its prosperity and population are no less than that of an empire, and in some respects it is far beyond the mortal level.

There are a total of eight provinces in Suduo. The capital province with the capital as the core has only one city in the capital, so the area is slightly smaller, and the other provinces are all normal.

There are about two standing legions in a province, and their output value and population are very even.The Junzuo group who left from the capital, the first stop to inspect the territory was in the province of Leiyu.

As the name suggests, this province is rich in Su Duo's most important and unique material-tear jade.

Nearly 80% of Su Duo's tear jade is produced from this, and this province is also one of the basic plates of the throne.

In order to grab the control of this province from the checks and balances of many princes, the throne took a lot of effort, and they have been working hard for almost ten years. Even now, the princes do not want to get from the hands of the throne all the time. Regain control of the tear jade vein.

Many princes couldn't help sighing during this process. The power given to the throne was still too great. When the current throne abdicates, they must slash the power of the throne.

"...The next throne is no longer decided by them...and they can't see the next throne being crowned."

In the capital city of Leiyu Province, Junzuo brought his lyrebird swordsman group into the station. In the palace, he leaned against the window, looking at the glorious mine not far away, and muttered.

"Boom..."

The door of the room was knocked, and one of the leaders of the Lyrebird Swordsman regiment, the guard knight Kalolidi of the Throne came in. The female knight put her hands behind her back and said:

"Sir, Gentleer has come to see you."

"Oh, let him wait in the city hall first, and I'll be there later."

In the provinces of Sudor, except for some real power lords, such as Talzod, who is in charge of the strongest naval power of Sudor, the most important person is undoubtedly the commander of each legion.

Without him, power comes from the barrel of a gun, and military power is of the utmost importance no matter what era or place.

The army commanders of the Suduo Kingdom are divided into two categories. One is the general army commanders who are from a science class. They start from the low-level non-commissioned officers and are promoted all the way up, but the number is extremely rare. The place.

The other type represents the family power of the Suduo Kingdom that is not the royal prince. The legion commander elected by the locality is a worthy object, because such a legion commander not only represents the kingdom’s army, but also represents the local power. Support, even if you lose the government's financial support, you can survive for a while with the support of your own family.

Kintell is the latter, the military commander of the Province of Tears.

The chiefs of the several major legions in the province of Tear Jade have sworn allegiance to the king, but the king does not think their loyalty is unbreakable, after all, they are not the lyrebird swordsmen that they have personally trained.

In other words, in his bones, Zero has never completely trusted others. The only person he completely trusts is himself.
