The Knight King of the Otherworldly Moon

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

While thanking the countess, she was also surprised by Lucifer's decisiveness.

Because a decision can be made in such a short time, and it is a consensual decision, it is not an easy process.

She could only judge what Lucifer found.

However, these.... have nothing to do with her for the time being.

After leaving the palace, Maria got into the carriage.

The carriage went all the way to the Rhodeland District, she observed the white palace in front of her in the carriage, her expression became more indifferent.

"This city has changed so much! If I had chosen Britain, I should be much more relaxed now.

only......"

While Maria was thinking so, suddenly, she felt a burning sensation in her arm.

She pulled up her sleeve, and a strange coat of arms was flashing crimson on her arm.

"That's it! There are others of the same kind here!"

Maria immediately understood what was going on.

Just as Maria opened the carriage curtain again and was about to find the source of the signal, the light on her arm gradually disappeared.

And in the vast sea of ​​people, apart from...the crowd and other carriages, she didn't find another person with an abnormal reaction like her.

no.357 Mysterious visitor

At night, the sky gradually turned black.

In a gorgeous manor, Lucifer and Leah were invited here.

In the hall, all kinds of food are placed on the table, the dishes on the plate are not so delicious as they are luxurious.

Under the leadership of Maria, Lucifer sat on the top, and Leah also sat down:.

"Is this the banquet you prepared? It's a banquet, but it seems that there are only the three of us here."

Looking at everything in front of him, Lucifer's mood at this time was not put on the menu.

"Actually, four forty-four."

Maria did not sit down immediately, but bowed slightly.

"Are you talking about the one behind the hidden darkroom? Originally, I thought she was Madam's bodyguard, but she was the protagonist."

The moment Lucifer's words fell, the secret door in the wall was opened, and a woman with long silver and white hair walked out from there. She calmly came to Lucifer and paid his respects to him.

"Ekaterina greets you, Your Majesty the King of Knights."

Ekaterina, the princess of... Rose is here at the moment.

Lucifer didn't feel too surprised by this.

He raised his hand and motioned for Ekaterina to sit down:.

With Yekaterina sitting down, the banquet between them officially started, but when they just started the meal, most of them said some scenes about the scenery of Britain and Ross, and did not enter the theme for the first time.

Time passed little by little, and Lucifer's expression was not in a hurry.

He already has a few speculations in his heart now, but he just doesn't know how the woman in front of him will choose.

In the end, Yekaterina couldn't take it any longer, or, in other words, this opportunity is only one time, and she must seize it well.

"Your Majesty, I wonder what you think of Ross now."

Ekaterina put down her knife and fork and spoke first.

"That depends on what you see in your eyes, ma'am."

Lucifer wiped the corner of his mouth and smiled slightly.

"What I see in my eyes is a great empire that is about to split.

And that's the real purpose of my trip.

Count Maria, thank you for your introduction, can I ask you to go out for a moment now?"

Having said this, Ekaterina looked at Maria.

"As you wish, ma'am."

Maria did not hesitate and left first.

Seeing this scene, Lucifer didn't say anything, but Leah said it first.

"King, I'll be waiting for you outside the door."

Leah is no longer the... naive girl, as a knight, she knows what to do when.

Maybe Lucifer didn't mind her staying, but she also understood that if she stayed, the other party would definitely not speak.

The next thing may affect Rose's decision, and Leah is very aware of this.

"Go!"

Lucifer said with a smile.

After the two left, Yekaterin officially spoke.

"Your Majesty Lucifer, since you are not surprised by my appearance, it also means that you will have your own speculation about what happened next to Ross.

And I am here for the last piece of the puzzle in your heart."

"Finish the last piece of the puzzle in my heart, do you know what I want?"

Facing Ekaterina's confidence, Lucifer didn't show much joy.

"His Majesty Lei Di's plan, that... the plan we made together with you.

Before that, you should have never thought that His Majesty the Thunder Emperor would perish with the Roman Emperor.

The result of the previous war is not what you want to see, and the next Ross is not what you want to see."

Ekaterina spoke about the source of her confidence.

She believed that what people on Ross's side didn't expect, Lucifer probably didn't expect either.

So now there's a problem, there's a vacuum in Ross's power that needs to be filled.

The reason why Ekaterina came here is... to get Lucifer's support, for her husband, and also for her own protection.

As for Ekaterina's speculation, Lucifer did not deny it.

"That's right.

Caligula did a good job, and his self-destruction affected me, and I had to rewrite my plan.

However, are you doing something wrong?

I have more options than you might think about what's next for Ross."

Lucifer shook the red wine in the glass and responded naturally.

"If you send troops directly and want to occupy Ross at this moment, the price you will pay will be far beyond your imagination.

Even if you are brave enough to keep winning, you will end up with just a broken Ross, and it will take you innumerable years to make it a boost, especially if you have to face the threat of Rome."

It has to be said that Ekaterina's vision is quite accurate.

Although sending troops directly is an option, there is a premise that France and Rome will not take the opportunity to make trouble, and the resistance on the Ross side will not be too great.

If there is a problem at two points, follow-up troubles will continue.

"Sending troops directly is the last resort.

Since you have seen this step, Madam, I might as well tell you directly.

In the face of Ross's next situation, I have three options.

The last strategy, watching the fire from the other side, and taking the initiative to stir up the situation in Ross, make it a civil war, and when the Rossne is exhausted, I will send troops to sweep the entire Ross.

Of course, this strategy will take time, and at the same time, things in Rome must be considered.

However, even taking Rome into account, the worst outcome would be an equal share of Ross with Rome."

Of course, this is just an optimistic guess.

Judging from the current situation, Rome's overall strength is stronger than that of Britain. If they send troops together, Rome will definitely occupy more territory than Britain. Then, Britain will also guard against Rome's northern offensive.

During this period, if there is any accident, such as the fall of Rome, the situation in Britain will become worse.

However, even so, Lucifer's strategy still shocked Ekaterina.

"...what about the other two strategies?"

She thought for a moment and asked.

"Central policy, take the initiative to intervene in Ross's war in a supportive way, and at the same time support an agent that I can control, and take Ross into his hands in a justifiable way."

Facing Lucifer's words, Ekaterina keenly discovered the problem.

"But you don't guarantee that your agent will complete obedience."

The king of one country, even if he is just a puppet pushed up, will not be willing to be the lackey of another country.

More often, he will feel like the real king and start to inflate himself.

"The temptation of kingship is the sweetest poison in the world, more intoxicating than women and money, no one will be willing to subdue, this is the inevitable result.

But there will be a buffer period, I will let him fire at Rome with all his strength in the name of revenge, and even if Ross is finished, I can go north and Rome will take care of me flawlessly."

Lucifer naturally understood the trouble.

no.358 do you want to be king

If you want to support a king, you need many conditions.

Once it gets out of control, there is a backup plan, but if it is just a one-time consumable, the way it is used will be completely different.

However, even so, there may be cases where the tail is not too large.
