I'll train you with that goal in mind."

Skadi seemed satisfied with the word, and there was almost a hint of joy in her expression.

"Thank you, Master, but before that, can I ask Master to unlock the illusion on the three idiots? They are my knights anyway."

"Well, it's easy."

At Lucifer's request, Skadi took out a small wand. She didn't sing at all. Several rune words appeared in the air, and then the words turned into magic power. A burst of glass shattered, and then they woke up from their fantasy.

After sobering up, Gawain and the others were......not angry, but ashamed.

"King, please forgive my gaffe."

Gao Wen knelt down and lowered his head.

Then the other two knelt down.

"It's okay! Just don't develop any weird interests out of it."

Lucifer was looking at them with subtle eyes at the moment.

The three knights also seemed to have noticed this look, and they looked at each other as if they understood something.

They also heard some rumors when they went to play at nightclubs and bars before.

"weird interest"

Gawain looked at Lancelot.

"follow them"

Lancelot looked at Tristan.

"impossible!"

Tristan, on the other hand, denied it quite succinctly, writing.

"Rise! I declare to you formally that this... Miss Scatty will be the Court Mage of Britain, and my teacher at the same time.

My knights, I hope you don't lose your temper again."

Lucifer calmly told the truth to the three in front of him.

They were quite surprised when they heard the news.

"Teacher Wang! Gao Wen understands."

"Lancelot understands."

"Follow the will of the king."

The three of them looked at each other and saw regret in each other's eyes.

Originally, they thought that even if this beauty became a court mage, they would not have no chance.

But now it's different.

During the New Year's lucky bag, the beautiful girl teacher and craftsman likes to add one, and there is a forty-third chance that I will meet the teacher again. I can only say that the teacher loves me too much... In fact, what I want is a whale Aunt Zhen!, the more I talk, the more I want to cry, and I strongly request the master craftsman to open the Noble Phantasm

no.85 No chance (please ask for tickets, ask for custom)

Teacher Wang, they thought it was impossible just thinking about it.

In case they failed in their pursuit and were entangled with rumors, even if the king didn't blame them, they would feel guilty enough to commit suicide.

After the problem of the magic eye was resolved, Lucifer personally took Skadi to the palace.

Inside the palace, they chatted while letting Skadi choose a suitable rest palace.

They walked together for a long time, and finally Skadi settled on the courtyard in the deepest part of the palace, and she liked the quiet here very much.

Originally, Lucifer wanted to help her tidy up, but after a while, he realized that it was not necessary.

Because with the spread of ice crystals standing under Skadi's feet, the palace in front of him has turned into a palace of ice, and Skadi nodded with satisfaction and entered it.

Lucifer and Artoria also followed, but after walking around, they realized that there was actually nothing they needed to do.

After finally explaining some relevant things, Lucifer left here.

Back at his palace, Lucifer was preparing to rest for a while and relax.

He subconsciously wanted to hug his exclusive pillow, but suddenly realized that it was still morning.

The day is official time, and Knight Ji has done her duty very conscientiously, guarding the safety of the palace, and has probably gone out for patrol now.

This inevitably made Lucifer a little regretful.

I don't have much to deal with today, so why don't you want to see Jeanne and the others? By the way, I'll take Isabella there and teach them how to read. Just when Lucifer thought so, the door of the room was opened.

Semiramis came in.

There is also a document in her hand.

"Your eyes are fine. These glasses have good taste and suit you very well."

Before she sat down, she immediately clarified the problems with Lucifer before.

This surprised Lucifer somewhat, because only a few people knew about it before.

The few of them obviously wouldn't speak out about this matter, which also meant that Semiramis saw the problem with Lucifer in his own way.

"You actually discovered the problem with my eyes! Mira, are you also a legendary magic master?"

Lucifer was a little surprised.

Before Semiramis had always considered herself a duchess, Lucifer didn't think much of it.

Now it seems that she has always been secretive, "I'm not a magician, my job is a conspiracy.

I only know a little 'a little' about... magic."

Semiramis smiled slightly, but did not admit his magical power.

And this made Lucifer even more curious.

He couldn't help thinking of a joke circulating on the Internet in his previous life: Semiramis, who knew a little bit of magic, "satisfied my curiosity, what's the point in your mouth?"

"Knowing a little is... knowing a little is...literally, no.

Don't expect too much from my magic, Wang.

When it comes to magic, shouldn't you ask your own teacher.

Or, you can't say it, Master!"

Having said that, Semirami handed Lucifer the document in his hand.

There was a lot of sarcasm in her tone.

This is also the communication party when they discuss things in private.

Laughing at each other has become a habit.

Facing the teasing of the Prime Minister in front of him, Lucifer felt a little overwhelmed.

It seems really embarrassing to say this name from someone else's mouth.

"Ahem! Recent changes in France"

He symbolically took the initiative to put the topic on the file.

But the more I looked at it, the more I felt something was wrong.

"Because of the impact of the previous defeat and the war reparations you proposed, France's internal instability has been in the last two years.

The tax in France was already high enough, and now the tax increase has caused several rebellions, Pepin the short came up with this method in order to quickly pacify the country."

Semiramis spoke quietly about the internal problems of France.

The previous defeat made France pay a huge war money, and the country naturally had to recover this money from somewhere else.

Of course, there are many ways to take it back, such as raiding the homes of some nobles who have committed crimes, which Pepin has already done.

Unfortunately, the effect was not ideal, and most of the money went into the pockets of the royal family rather than the treasury.

In order to make up for this part of the deficit, he chose the most simple and clear way.

Raise taxes! This is the best way to... see results in a short period of time, but the effects may not be eliminated in a few years.

After all, for a country with an aristocratic system, raising taxes may be... a word from the king, but reducing taxes is to face the entire aristocratic system.

Naturally, Pepin the Short's actions aroused dissatisfaction among the lower classes, and many who could not survive directly chose to rebel.

No accident, these people must have been suppressed in the end, but this has also shaken the already shaken domestic situation even more.

In order to calm the current turmoil, Pepin the short came up with another trick.

That is... "Well, what kind of genius operation is this to separate some territories and set up a religious domain, and also announce that the Church of the Holy Church is the state religion of France, Pepin, the dwarf, are you not worried that the theocracy will take precedence over the king's power in the future?"

Lucifer let go of the... file, feeling that the guy on the other side's brain was broken.

For .. a country, there is only so much power.

Once the nobles have gained more power, the king will reduce his own power.

Likewise, once the church is given some power, it means that some power elsewhere will be diminished.

From now on, Pepin's actions will undoubtedly weaken his kingship.

It may not be visible in a short period of time, but it will definitely fade away in a long time.

This is exactly what makes Lucifer strange.

His current practice in Britain is to centralize power, but the other party is decentralizing power. What the hell? Could he even solve this domestic problem, so that he has not heard that he is a devout believer before turning to the church for help?

Or is it that he was fooled and lame by those... church people in his previous life, as someone who has listened to the world chronicle, Lucifer can naturally predict the consequences of the unity of the state and religion, and at the same time he understands In this day and age, what is the most likely way to make Britain stronger.

So when he saw this, he subconsciously thought that Pepin's brain was broken.

But think about it carefully, maybe it's just because the other party is constrained by the times, or because he believes in himself too much.

"Maybe he wants to follow the same path as Ramses II, the sun king of [Esia], and the unity of church and state.

Put kingship and divine right in your hands.

Even if you are as wise as you, you cannot deny that the combination of royal power and divine power will give birth to extraordinary power.

Especially now, when the internal turmoil in France, the more desperate people are, the more people yearn for a miracle or belief to appear.
