Secretary of the Devil's Castle

Hearing this, Marianne smiled even brighter, and almost forgot that she was dragged away by Eleven.

So, Eleven Youcan Enoch, the cardinal of the Theocracy of the Holy Light, dragged the saint of the Theocracy of the Holy Light, St. Marianne Agnes, out of the banquet hall swaggeringly, and The nobles along the way turned a blind eye to this impolite scene, as if it had never happened.

"The nobles on the mainland... are really determined."

Fatalia shook her head, then raised a cup of black tea and took a sip, and Marian's smile subconsciously appeared in her mind. This saint with a straight head left a deep impression on her: "Go up Seeing such a good-looking person for the first time seems to be in the mirror? The embryo of a beauty, I just don’t know what it will be like when I grow up.”

"When you grow up, you won't be prettier than your master."

A cold and inorganic voice suddenly came from behind Fatalia. She was taken aback when she heard the words, and then realized who was standing behind her suddenly, so she leaned back trustingly, and as expected fell into a warm in the arms.

Seeing Fatalia leaning on her body, Favna adjusted her posture again to make her more comfortable and said, "Master's appearance is perfect, and there will be no more beautiful person than Master."

Fatalia did not reply, but raised her head and stared at Favna's amethyst-like eyes for a while, until she couldn't hold back and blinked before saying, "Are you jealous?"

Favna froze for a moment: "...No."

As if she was certain of something, Fatalia closed her eyes and nodded, "It seems I'm jealous."

It was hard for Favna to speak now.

After a while, Fatalia continued: "She is just a saint of the Holy Light Theocracy. The number of times we can meet is extremely rare, so there is no need to be jealous."

Favna still didn't reply.

Perhaps it was an illusion, when she looked at Marianne's face, there was always a sense of crisis.

It should be just nervousness, after all, Marian is just someone who just met Fatalia.

Chapter 75 Am I Competent?

"If we can't be friends, we must eradicate her when she grows up, but unfortunately we can't do it anymore, so we, our Reinhardt Empire, must become friends with that princess."

In Reinhardt's palace, Libitt, who was standing in front of Oliver and listening to the teachings of the Iron Lion King, stared at his father with wide eyes in disbelief, "Father... are you serious? Is it?"

Oliver stared into Libby's eyes, and he sighed slightly until he retreated out of fear, stood up from the throne, then turned his back and gently stroked the golden lion head relief on the backrest, "Of course it is Seriously, my son, I am serious."

Libitt couldn't help but stepped forward and spread his hands and said: "Although I know that she is extremely talented, it makes me feel timid, but it shouldn't be treated like this by us? The Reinhardt Empire is a powerful and powerful country. How can an ancient country change its position because of a little girl? She is just a child."

"Child? You Fatalia Princess?"

Seeing Lippit's dumbfounded expression, Oliver sighed slightly in disappointment, looked forward again, and looked at the banner consisting of crossed swords and roaring lions hanging behind the throne.

That is the symbol of the Reinhardt Empire.

"Libitt, my son, it's too mild and inappropriate to call that a child. It's already... an extremely dangerous beast, and what's even worse is that her lifespan as a demon is far longer than that of a demon." We human beings will grow up, and it is foreseeable that for a very long time in the future, that ferocious beast will scan the countries on the continent with hungry eyes, waiting for the opportunity to tear off a piece of meat."

For the first time, Oliver's back was a little stooped in Libby's eyes. He realized in a daze that his father was actually over 50 years old. People—even he, who was closer to him, ignored the oldness of the Iron Lion King.

He is no longer as strong as he was when he was young.

Libitt bit his lip and said, "Then Father, why did you sign a trade agreement with the Cairns Empire? Didn't this open the way for her?"

"Ugh--"

Oliver sighed deeply again, and then sat on the throne again, "If signing an agreement will bring future dangers, then if you don't sign an agreement, the empire will crumble now. Libby, you forgot about the domestic turmoil Have you forgotten who occupies the largest mine in the country now?"

Libitt opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything. In the end, he could only give a forced smile helplessly: "That's right, this is really... a dilemma."

Looking at Libby who seemed to be thinking, Oliver smiled for the first time since talking to Libby today, "Fortunately, she is still young, and we still have plenty of time to make arrangements. Listen up, Libby , we must not only maintain a good relationship with her, but also be prepared to be an enemy at all times, which is necessary to face a big country like the Keynesian Empire."

Libby bowed deeply.

"I would like to listen to your instruction, my father."

……

"Listen to your instruction, Your Majesty the Pope."

In the Pope's palace, a young man in a priest's uniform saluted respectfully, and then left the room, leaving only an octogenarian sitting on a chair. This old man was wrapped in a worn-looking The white priest's clothes looked weather-beaten, and an oak cane was placed beside the chair. His body was extremely thin, almost skinny, and one couldn't help but suspect that a gust of wind could blow him apart, but this skinny Although the face of the old man on the head is thin, he can still see the meaning of kindness. His eyes are not only not cloudy like the old man's, but are more energetic than the young man's, shining with powerful holy magic power, and the crown of thorns on his head It is to declare his identity.

The current pope of the Holy See of Holy Light, the only fourth twelfth-rank powerhouse in the world, St. Baron VII.

Baron VII watched the young man leave, then squinted his eyes, rubbed his hands, poured a cup of hot tea and took a sip, then let out a satisfied sigh, but at this moment, there was another knock on the door. At the sound of the door, Baron VII frowned in dissatisfaction, but still said, "Come in."

"See His Majesty the Pope."

Eleven's figure appeared at the door, and then bowed to Baron VII, "Bless the Holy Light, I have returned safely—finally, I was not maddened to death by the Holy Lady."

Hearing this, Baron VII suddenly narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Do you know?"

"I know it."

"Do you know Marianne's destructive power?"

"It's so clear, it's hard to imagine she's still a 12-year-old girl."

"Hey, it seems that you have been tortured very badly."

"...Thanks to His Majesty's blessing, he finally survived."

"Okay, let's stop talking about it."

Eleven sat down politely, then held the cup of hot tea and said: "If Your Majesty refers to the matter about the saint, then unfortunately, there is not much to gain, but it is worth mentioning that the saint seems to be Gained a new friend."

"Oh? Is that so? Although Marian's child is a bit naughty, we adults are the ones who are troubled. Marian is still very attractive to children of the same age."

Barron VII sipped hot tea and asked, "So, who is that friend?"

Eleven replied with a blank face: "It's the princess of the Keynesian Empire, Fatalia Keynes."

"puff--!"

Barron VII couldn't hold back, and sprayed out a sip of tea. Eleven's expression remained unchanged, and his body surface was already floating with holy light, blocking the oncoming spray of tea.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Baron VII, who seemed to be on the verge of death, coughed violently for a long time before recovering. He looked at Eleven with some complaints and said, "You kid, are you sincerely provoking me? My old man Bones don't take much of a fright, but... Fatalia Cairns? How do you feel about her?"

"The maturity and ability beyond my age, I thought I was talking with my peers, but it didn't feel like a living person. That princess was a little too indifferent. I don't know what happened to me——May the Holy Light protect you Her soul, free from pain and worry."

He silently prayed for Fatalia for a moment, and then Eleven said with a serious face: "But my discovery is more than that, I detected a breath of great sin in that Princess Fatalia. "

"A great crime?"

Barron VII narrowed his eyes, "Are you sure it's a serious crime?"

Eleven nodded emphatically and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, that must be the breath of a great crime, but just like I said, the princess is too indifferent, and I can't even detect much human emotion from her. The mortal sin aura on her body is also negligible, and it is impossible to judge which mortal sin it is. Judging from the race, it may represent the mortal sin of "lust". After all, her race is a high-level succubus, but from the information we have learned, Princess Fatalia seems to be very gluttonous, and 'gluttony' seems very likely, so follow-up judgment is required, Your Majesty."

"Lust or gluttony?"

Barron VII sighed heavily, "I hope she can control her desires instead of being controlled by them, otherwise the incident of the Gray Witch 100 years ago may repeat itself."

Great sins, they are walking natural disasters. Since the first life appeared on the earth, they seem to appear in all parts of the world without warning, at most seven appear at the same time, and after the seven are full, only the death of the previous great sin can appear New deadly sins, and the characteristics of the big sins seem to be fixed. People of later generations analyzed and divided the bias of these big sins, and finally set the seven deadly sins, and the major religions called for the abandonment of these crimes. There is no other reason, because In this way, the probability of serious crimes can be reduced.

Every culprit is unimaginably powerful. The gifts from the abyss greatly enhance their own blood power and even break through the limit. Compared with the same kind, their strength, speed, endurance, magic power, wisdom, and potential And so on are almost another species, and even retain a very special ability, these abilities are simple and powerful without exception, just like the Gray Witch who caused great damage a hundred years ago, who has the power of jealousy One of the great sins, its ability is: the difficulty of interfering with natural magic power within the range is greatly increased.

Just this ability can destroy almost all mages.A mage who casts spells within the range can only cast magic through his own stored magic power, and the magic effect cast is difficult to produce further interference effects, and cannot mobilize the surrounding magic power.

Such is the danger of the power of mortal sin.

Moreover, these great crimes seem to be able to enter a special form, in which they will be greatly enhanced, and opponents of the same level are almost invincible.

Of course, if only this is the case, the great sins will not be called natural disasters. The main reason why the great sins are called natural disasters is that there will be a voice that whispers and lures in every major sin's ear, and their souls will also be destroyed. Being continuously corroded and falling into darkness, finally set off disaster.

Since history has been recorded, there are no major crimes that can control oneself, and the most recent outbreak is the Gray Witch. She was crusade after destroying three small countries.

If Fatalia Keynes, the princess of the Keynesian Empire, was controlled by desire, then the damage caused would probably be devastating.

"Eleven, does the princess have the idea of ​​embracing the Holy Light?"

"No, Your Majesty, she said herself that she would not have any beliefs."

"...Really? So it seems that not only resisting the Holy Light, but also rejecting the help of other gods? Well, then I can only hope that Princess Fatalia can control her desires, May the Holy Light protect her soul from the troubles of sin."

"May the Holy Light protect her soul from the troubles of sin."

After praying silently for a while, Baron VII opened his eyes again, and showed a kind smile to Eleven: "Okay, child, we have done what we should do, now, tell me about your journey Have you seen something, did it give you a deeper understanding of the Holy Light?"

Eleven also showed a smile, "Yes, Your Majesty, even if I still can't peek into the true meaning of the Holy Light, the Holy Light is always with us."

……

"Fatalia, how are things going?"

In the magic projection, Ender still had no expression on his face. Judging from the background, he seemed to be in a tent. It seemed that he was resting during the march.

Fatalia, who had a slight guess, blinked her eyes, and then replied: "The commercial agreement has been signed, father. Not only that, I also had some exchanges with the joint mission sent by the mainland. If you don't If there is an accident, there must be some new rooms in the Demon King City for the missions sent by those countries soon."

"A joint mission?"

Ender recalled the report that Fatalia gave him before, then nodded and replied: "Then Fatalia, this matter will also be handled by you, and I believe that with your ability, it will be handled well." of."

"I understand."

Fatalia nodded, then picked up the document on the side and said: "There are still some things, Father, the research on basic runes has made some progress. The joining of Viscount Sharp has made the study of souls advance by leaps and bounds, and it seems to have fed back to the basics. In the field of runes, three basic runes have now been discovered, namely 'stability', 'regulation', and 'increase', I think we can start to try to put the runes into use after this."

"Really? That's great."

Ende's eyes moved, and his mood became a little cheered up, "Start research under the condition of ensuring safety, and you should also pay attention to Francis, he will not care about any safety regulations if he researches until he rises up."

"Of course I know, father, I have already made relevant preparations."

Pushing the glasses, Fatalia continued: "But father, how is the battle going on on your side?"

"It went well, and the resistance they encountered was a little smaller than expected. It seems that after losing the Demon King, their city has completely become a mess—maybe it's even worse than that."

Ender said so, and then noticed Fatalia's hesitation, "What's wrong with Fatalia? Do you have anything to say?"

Fatalia hesitated for a moment, and finally asked anxiously: "Father, do you think I am a good princess? Have I satisfied you?"

Ender was taken aback, he had never imagined that Fatalia would ask such a question, but he quickly caught the uneasiness in Fatalia's eyes, and then solemnly replied: "My evaluation of you has never changed. But, Fatalia, you are excellent, very excellent, and you can be proud of yourself."

"yes?"

Fatalia's eyes narrowed slightly, then she pushed her glasses again and lowered her head, saying, "Okay, then I shouldn't have gone the wrong way...I will continue to work hard, Father."

"Well, pay attention to rest."

"Yes, Father."

(The volume of "Her Royal Highness Princess of the Cairns Empire" ends)

(The focus will be on Fatalia's growth in the future. She is still very immature and cannot reach the end of the story, and needs a little growth)

(Okay, keep going)

"quack--!"

The crow flew across the sky and landed on the window sill. It straightened its black and shiny feathers, and then looked at Fatalia's room with red eyes.

At this time, the owner of this room was not there, and instead was the exclusive maid Favna who was arranging the clothes. The passage of time did not engrave marks on her body, and she is still exactly the same as when she first met Fatalia.

...No, perhaps something has changed.

Holding Fatalia's clothes, Favna walked into the bathroom. At this time, there was a slight sound of water in the bathroom, and the water mist filled the space, making the scenery hazy.

"Favna? Is that you?"

A cold female voice came from the pool, and Favna replied, "Yes, master, I brought your clothes."

"Well, let's put it there first, and I'll come out right away."

First there was the sound of splashing water, and then there was the patter of wet bare feet stepping on the smooth floor, and a beautiful figure wrapped in mist stood in front of Favna.

It was a perfect young woman, with moist white short curly hair sticking to her cheeks, dark brown horns protruding from the hair and bending downwards, her scarlet eyes seemed to be stained with blood, the bridge of her nose was slightly straight, and her lips Ruddy and attractive, the facial features are harmonious and perfect.

Her height is not very high, but she is also at the level of 1.6 meters [-]. She has an excellent figure and a well-proportioned body. Her white, tender and firm skin is moist and flushed because she just came out of the bath, and she still seems to be emitting a slight heat. , the swaying fruit on the chest is dizzying, and the graceful body is even more alluring, unscrupulously releasing a charming aura.

Fatalia also wore a silver necklace on her neck, inlaid with a ruby. The gem happened to fall between the two huge fruits. The combination of the red gem and the white and tender skin gave a strong visual impact Under the light, the ruby ​​shimmers, making it even more attractive.

The advanced succubus bloodline strengthened by the abyss in Fatalia, who has almost grown up, has been more thoroughly developed, which makes her exude unparalleled charm. Although I don't mean it in this regard, her natural charm The ability has been manifested, indiscriminately capturing every aesthetically normal creature around.

Fatalia reached out to pick off a petal stuck to her chest, and then lowered her head slightly to look at Favna. At this time, she was already half a head taller than Favna, and now she was on Favna's body. The only thing taller than her is the pair of dragon horns.

Favna understood, took out a towel and carefully wiped the water droplets on Fatalia's body. After all these years of getting along, Fatalia would not feel embarrassed about such things. is a good thing.
