I was regarded as a demon god by a witch

Chapter 496 National Law and Universal Law

After Ivita used the Broken Bronze Boat to return to the royal capital, she did not return to the royal capital of Alsace. Instead, she took the Virgin of Vesta to the garrison of the Sophora Tree Knights.

The Knights of the Sophora japonica are facing a formidable enemy and are ready to go. In the castle next to the Sophora japonica fire tree, large crossbows made of the Sophora japonica trees are ready to go. They have the power to suppress magic and supernatural forces.

Saint Vesta suddenly smiled. "Your Majesty Ivita, after all, you have used too much magic and killed too many people protected by law, so you dare not take me into the Royal Capital now, for fear that I will cause trouble and threaten you with the lives of people in the Royal Capital. , now take me to the place where your knights are stationed. There are many high-level knights here, as well as the knight marquis and the sacred locust fire tree who have the evil domain."

"They can keep an eye on me."

"Although you are very powerful compared to me, I have now seen the end of your power."

Ivita clasped her hands behind her back, not wanting to refute this at all. The Holy Land of Vesta inherited by the Virgin of Vesta is a holy land of fire magic that has existed in the ancient world. Even if she has penetrated almost all of Vesta The Holy Land has all the fire magic, but she also has a back-up plan that she doesn't understand. She will not be so arrogant as to bring a witch marquis into the royal capital.

"Saint Girl, the sacred fire I saw you used before was very interesting." Ivita said lightly: "There are countless people's faith in that flame, and it actually pushes away time and turns it into an eternal flame. "

The Virgin of Vesta stretched out her palm, and the flame burned quietly in her palm. "When you fought with me before, I saw that you already know the Vesta Holy Fire very well. But just understanding it is useless. The Vesta Holy Fire took more than three thousand years to create."

"It may take another three thousand years for you to create another holy fire."

Ivita stretched out her hand, and the holy fire in the palm of the saint fell into his hand and turned into his flame, but the Virgin of Vesta sneered when she saw this: "It's useless. The body of the flame is in the Temple of Vesta a location."

"With this flame, you can only use the fire magic of our Holy Land of Vesta for a period of time. It is just a consumable. After all, there are not a few witches who know the method of making flames of Holy Land of Vesta. They just don't have that It takes patience and conditions to create a flame that has been worshiped by different people for three thousand years and has never been extinguished."

Ivita nodded. "It is not enough to understand fire magic. There is a hidden threshold in the flames of the Vesta Holy Land. You must understand planetary magic. I need to understand the magic of Mars and the ether magic of the regular dodecahedron, right?"

Saint Vesta looked at Ivita in surprise, "You actually understand this. How is it possible?"

"I used light souls and dark souls to distort time." Ivita explained simply.

Saint Vesta looked even more surprised. "The light soul and the dark soul can actually achieve this. The time you spent in distortion must not be short."

“This is the evolution of our Vista Shrine from ancient times to the present day.”

"The inheritance of the Holy Land of Vesta will definitely guarantee the emergence of the Witch Marquis."

It is a very powerful guarantee that a witch marquis will come out. Other magic inheritances can only try luck to produce a witch marquis. However, the witches in the Holy Land of Vesta will definitely produce a witch marquis every generation, and such a witch marquis must have superhuman combat power.

Iveta said: "From your current perspective, who will win and who will lose in the war between me and the Frankish Kingdom?"

Saint Vesta raised her eyebrows. "Your Majesty, you are indeed powerful, I admit that, but how can one's personal strength compare with the accumulation of generations of Frank? The Kingdom of Frank will also have some unusual geniuses appearing every time. These geniuses are usually hidden everywhere, among the people. , but these people will appear again whenever the Frankish king recruits them.”

"The Frankish king could give orders to almost anyone in the kingdom."

"His rights were upheld by all Franks."

"Your Majesty, with all due respect, you have no idea how powerful the Frankish Kingdom is at this moment. They are completely different from any country you are familiar with."

"The Frankish Kingdom is now the largest nation-state in the world."

Ivita raised her brows and walked into the castle of the Sophora Knights while talking to the Saint of Vesta. "It seems like you don't like me anymore."

"That means you still think that there is at least one person in the Frankish Kingdom who can resist my magic."

Saint Vesta stopped, bowed slightly to Ivita, and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't say anything. I'm not willing to be a traitor yet."

Ivita smiled and said nothing. "I have also offended the emperor of the Holy Empire. The emperor of the Holy Empire is the master of universal laws. It seems that I have offended both the national empire and the universal empire."

Saint Vesta was really stunned for a moment. Thinking about it carefully, Ivita's enemies are indeed powerful. Ivita can still be safe in front of so many enemies, which shows how powerful he is. "Your Majesty, the enemy of the strong is also the strong."

"You don't have to compliment me." Ivita said: "I am very interested in the Holy Land of Vesta. The Holy Land of Vesta did not originally belong to the Frankish Kingdom, but you moved there in this generation."

The Virgin of Vesta sighed. "The Eastern Empire was destroyed by the pagans. Even the Patriarch of the Eastern Orthodox Church lived under the rule of the pagans, and the law was destroyed. We, the people, can only escape from our homeland and be accepted by the Frankish Kingdom. It’s a favor to us.”

Ivita said: "The kindness can be repaid eventually. In my opinion, you seem to be rejected by the Franks. In that case, why not choose another Ming master?"

"My war with the Frankish Kingdom is not a life and death battle. The Franks will give up if they cannot invade. You will not feel any psychological pressure."

Saint Vesta smiled, shook her head, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly. "Your Majesty, you are really joking. The Franks admire the people of the Eastern Empire very much and think that our arrival has freed them from the ignorant period when the church ruled their spirits."

"We left the Eastern Empire and took away countless scriptures and brought a large collection of books from the ancient civilization of the Frankish Kingdom. The national power of the Frankish Kingdom has greatly increased, and its cultural influence has greatly increased."

"Why should we leave a country that respects us?"

Ivita suddenly turned to look at her, "Oh, really? Then why did King Frank leave a back-up on you?"

"Didn't you notice?"

Iveta suddenly pointed at Saint Vesta, and a mark suddenly appeared on Saint Vesta's forehead. It was a mark in the shape of a rooster, and the surface of Saint Vesta's body began to become steel. change.

The expression on Saintess Vesta's face changed greatly. The Franks actually left a backhand on her body. When did it happen?

Was it something tampered with in the rare magic potion given to her?

Only then did the Saint of Vesta realize that the Frankish Kingdom was xenophobic. They had indeed brought knowledge and new ideas to that country, but they were still outsiders. When they were no longer useful, they would be feared and punished. To replace, to be excluded.

It took the Vesta Saint a full ten minutes to reverse the ironization of her body and have the mark on her forehead sealed. Fortunately, she is far away from the Frankish Kingdom now. The laws of the Frankish Kingdom are too far away from her, so the power of this backhand has become lower.

But if she fell out with Emperor Frank, and she was sealed away for ten minutes, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Ivita said to her: "Holy Girl, I only saw some back-ups at the shallow level. As for whether there are back-ups at the deeper level, I don't know."

"The things you use in Frank may have been tampered with, but the techniques are so clever that you can't tell. Because of you, I have witnessed the Frankish law of the Frankish kingdom. A nation is bound to a law in It’s really fun together.”

"It's just that in this way, it does strengthen the nation and the law, but it is too narrow and cannot condense the universal law."

Saint Vesta did not expect that she was also being plotted. She looked ugly at the moment, but she still said tenaciously: "Universal laws are too fragile. Only national laws can last stably."

"Universal laws will inevitably be destroyed by national laws. Every country is a world where the weak and the strong eat the strong. In the future, countries that do not adopt national laws will be torn into pieces."

Ivita nodded. The best possibility is that there are no nation-states in the world, but the worst possibility is that others have nationalism. If your country does not have nationalism, then it will be bad.

"However, under the oppression of the Franks, the Alsatian people also began to develop nationalism." Ivita said: "Nationalism is an ideological trend that will spread outwards. The Franks only benefited from some ideological trends, but not necessarily You can eat it for too long.”

"If I am willing, I can also use this national ideological trend of the Alsatian people to condense the new Fire Dragon Law, and turn the Fire Dragon Law from fragments of universal law into a complete national law."

Strictly speaking, all laws today are just fragments of universal laws from different periods. The major laws are pieced together and gradually move towards the goal of universal law.

But national laws are not like this.

National laws allow the laws to be dispersed in various places, at the expense of giving up the patchwork of universal laws, and become an independent and complete law.

Saint Vesta wavered for a moment and said: "Then congratulations, Your Majesty."

"I……"

Ivita said: "Are you worried that you still have the emperor's back-up plan? Once you betray Frank, you will die?"

"Or do you feel that neither the Franks nor the Alsatians are of sufficient interest to you anymore, and you want to remain neutral and stay out of our disputes?"

"In my opinion, your need is to find a place to stay, and the Frankish Kingdom is the most inappropriate. The Frankish Kingdom is ambitious and has been suppressing domestic forces. You are now a thorn in the emperor's side, not a direct descendant. I think Thunder Beast The witches are more like spying on you. The Luwa witches are at least a local traditional witch force, but they are not as eye-catching as you."

"Besides, the recent national policy of the Frankish Kingdom is to form an alliance with the pagan empire, and you are likely to be an obstacle to it, if what I expected is correct. The king of Frank is now considering your problem every day and wants to find a way to accommodate you. , but those methods must not be as good as you want."

Saint Vesta was stubborn for a moment, but finally sighed.

"What your Majesty said does make sense."

"Your Majesty wants me to go to your place, but what's the difference between going to you and staying in Frank? After all, it's a foreign land."

Ivita holds her hands behind her back. Every step the Saint of Vesta takes will increase the temperature of the surrounding air. Every step he takes will balance the surrounding energy and return the temperature of the surrounding air to normal.

"Of course I am different. I also recognize the Frankish national laws, so I have borrowed them, but I am not ready to give up the universal laws. The biggest difference between you entering my many countries is that I can recognize you as my country a member of the nation.”

The Saint of Vesta was puzzled.

Ivita explained: "I now have four independent countries on my hands, and the personnel in each country are very complex. They come from dozens of countries."

"If I use the Frankish national law you mentioned, my four countries will explode. But I want the four countries in my hand to form a new understanding and create a new nation. This nation will It has its own culture, its own classics, and the sea is open to all rivers, and tolerance is great. Anyone who learns the culture of this nation, takes the initiative to wear this national costume, and takes the initiative to integrate into it can be regarded as a member of this nation."

"There is no discrimination without distinction. I call this kind of nationalism universal nationalism."

"What divides this nation is not blood, tradition, or language, but civilization. Those who voluntarily join this civilization can be part of the same nation, even if they don't understand the language temporarily."

"As for bloodline and tradition, they are not worth mentioning."

The Vesta Witch was shocked. "Can such a thing really exist? But if it existed, wouldn't it be able to outlaw universal empires and nation-states?"

"The national trend of thought has come to an abrupt end. Of course, the premise is that all this can really be realized and is not an illusory moon in the water."

"Your Majesty, what is the name of this nation now? You have convinced me."

Ivita chuckled. "There is no name, because this nation has not yet appeared in the Magic Black Forest. I just have a prototype of something that this nation worships together, and I haven't thought about it yet."

"Religion and language should not become symbols that distinguish groups between people. That would have too many shortcomings after all."

Ivita made up for it and said: "But the more realistic thing is that I have the Raven Law in my hands. I am naturally an enemy of the pagans, and you people from the Eastern Empire are naturally my potential allies. I think this alone The reasons are enough for you to think about which side you should stand on and which side is in your best interests."

The Saint of Vesta knelt down to Ivita and said, "But how can I get rid of the Franks' backhand left in my body? Your Majesty."

Iveta said: "It's easy. I'll take you to the Dragon Fire Lake to burn it. It's probably gone. Even if there is still some, as long as you stay away from the Frankish Kingdom, I don't think it's a big problem. The worst is, if you see them in the future Just walk around. If you must be hostile, bring some friends, companions, and comrades. Their back-up skills are not enough to kill a Witch Marquis. At most, they will weaken and seal you. As long as you are careful, they will only add some minor damage to you It's just a minor trouble. I can also add an ancient god-sacrifice magic called triple retribution to you, so that the harm others do to you will be repaid to others three times."
