"I can't help it.. Whoever makes me free, let me play with you."

"However, you have to add a jackpot."

Charles was not afraid at all: "What prize?"

Sylvia frowned beautifully and thought for a moment.

Then, she blinked slyly: "If I win, Charles, you have to promise me a request that won't be too much."

"Sounds like an attractive bet."

A cold voice sounded in everyone's ears.

The third princess, who was wearing a pitch-black military uniform, came out of the envoys from other kingdoms and came to Charles' side.

In Isabella's beautiful dark purple eyes, there was also a color of interest.

"Can I join in too?"

"of course can."

Isabella crossed her arms and glanced at her companions in the adventure group like a queen, with a majestic aura: "Then I ask for the same bet as Sylvia."

Claude raised his hand: "It's better to change the lottery directly to Shire to meet one of the conditions of the winner."

The proposal of the young leader of the Renault Princes Alliance was unanimously approved by the members of the Morning Star Adventure Group.

"Hooho-"

"Don't choose to run away, but come to me, Charles Egut, on your own initiative?"

Charles stood up from the sofa.

He spread his hands and looked around, without the slightest fear.

"Although I know you guys are tricking me—"

"But it's okay, because I can't lose."

Chapter 43 Your Royal Highness is so sassy! 5k5

As the guardian knight of the Dawn Maiden, Ingrid is responsible for guarding Sylvia's safety when the other four are participating in the game.

Therefore, only Sylvia, Isabella, Charles, and Claude participated in this fantasy game.

The game started, and a vast map slowly appeared in front of everyone.

The template of the map refers to the deployment of the Western Continent, and the initial countries represented by each of the four are located in the four corners of the continent.

Within the initial country, there are many other neutral countries, tribes of different races, and resource points.

Most of the resource points are guarded by wandering monsters or neutral forces. The closer to the center of the continent, the greater the benefits contained in the resource points.

Of course, this also means that the neutral forces stationed outside the resource points are stronger.

..

Unsurprisingly, Sylvia has chosen a development path for her country that focuses on faith and integrates theocracy.

And she is also worthy of being the Holy Maiden of Dawn. Relying on her extremely high initial charm value, she has easily raised the hearts of the people in the kingdom to a level close to full through just a few simulated speeches in virtual reality.

Isabella chose the route of governing the country by law and order, promulgated a complete and well-ordered code of laws in her kingdom, and quickly established an executive bureau to ensure that every policy was implemented in place.

Claude spared no effort to develop business, and soon established a number of large caravans, wandering between the major kingdoms and neutral forces to earn the difference.

As for Charles—

"Delayed shifts - at the cost of a 30-point drop in public opinion, in exchange for each citizen's daily working hours being extended by 8 hours, it seems pretty good."

"The child labor law—at the cost of a 50-point drop in public opinion, it seems to be a good idea to allow minors to participate in daily work."

"Which one should choose between extended shifts and child labor laws.."

Ciel looked at the options in the policy tree and fell into deep thought.

Finally, he came up with a good solution to the difficulty of choosing.

"Isn't it just dropping 80 points of public opinion?"

"I want it all!"

..

According to the normal game flow of Fantasy War Chess——

In the early stage of the game, it is mostly about developing forces, sweeping up wandering monsters on the map, neutral forces, and exploiting resource points by the way.

Because the initial countries of the players are far apart, unless it is intentional in the early stages of the game, there will be very few player-to-player battles.

However, even at the stage of development, the differences between people are inevitably revealed.

"Why do the random events that I trigger when opening up wasteland are all negative events such as "Beast Surge Attack", "Unknown Plague", and "Cultist Riot". "

"And the random events you trigger are all "Allegiance to the Half-Elf Tribe", "Lost Treasure", and "Dusty Treasure Map"? "

Sylvia looked at Charles and blinked her beautiful blue eyes: "I don't know, maybe I'm lucky?"

Charles casually dispatched soldiers to suppress a popular rebellion that broke out in the kingdom, and was a little speechless to Sylvia's explanation.

According to real life, the Holy Dawn, who was selected by the Holy See of Dawn from countless candidates when she was young, can indeed be said to be the real chosen one.

I'm a child of a plane, so it's natural for me to have magical powers?

With the passage of time, Claude also vaguely discovered some abnormalities.

In reality, he is the leader of the largest chamber of commerce in the Western Continent—the Golden Deer Chamber of Commerce, and the future leader of the Renault Princes Alliance.

For the development of commerce and the means of conducting diplomacy through trade, it can be said to be at hand.

Therefore, relying on his experience in reality in the early stage of the game, he easily accumulated a large amount of wealth by relying on multiple caravans, and using interests as a bond, he was like a fish in water among several neutral countries.

However, when he wanted to use similar means to develop in the territories to which Isabella and Silvia belonged, he was mercilessly rejected.

Among them, Isabella's kingdom is the worst.

Every envoy and caravan sent out was eaten up by Isabella mercilessly.

They don't care about the long-term benefits that the opposing caravans and envoys can bring to their own country, or the country's reputation value that is reduced in the game due to the indiscriminate killing of envoys and caravans.

Claude looked at Isabella who was sitting upright, and then at Sylvia and Charles who were beside him——

He thought of the lottery that the two had added before the game started.

In my heart, a guess could not help but arise.

"Could it be that you want to clear up first..."

Isabella smiled at Claude.

However, the chill hidden in that beautiful smile made Claude subconsciously shut his mouth.

[The player "Isabella" declared war on the player "Claude", and the countries of both sides officially entered a state of war. 】

A cold beep sounded.

From the very beginning, the country Isabella built focused on cultivating the armed forces, and options such as national policies and wonders all focused on the combat effectiveness of the army.

Now after dozens of rounds of development, it has begun to take shape. The army is well-equipped and in strict order, and it easily wiped out all the neutral camps nearby.

And Claude's country focuses on developing business, whether it is policy or other options, it is assisted by this.

Although a large amount of money and resources have been hoarded at this moment, they have not had time to transform them into actual combat power.

Of course, with sufficient funds, the speed of cultivating an army is very fast, and it only takes a dozen rounds to completely convert resources and money into an actually usable army.

But obviously, Isabella is not going to give Claude this time.

..

The countries where Claude and Isabella are located are located at both ends of the diagonal of the map, with the country of Shire in the middle.

Isabella looked at Charles with those beautiful purple eyes: "Excuse me, I will kill him."

"Don't believe this woman's nonsense, Charles!"

"You should understand the reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, the two of them are going to clear the scene!"

"Have you forgotten our friendship for so many years? Have you forgotten how many brilliance in business history we have created together?"

Claude's eager words sounded one after another.

Charles looked at the silver-haired third princess, and spread his hands: "As you can see, I still understand the reason for the false way to destroy Guo."

"Claude is my dearest relative, brother, brother, and a friend who shares life and death."

"so--"

He glanced at Claude.

"You have to pay more."

Claude's heart suddenly turned cold.

And on Isabella's icy face, a smile was slowly outlined.

She initiates a money transfer request to Charles.

"One hundred thousand gold coins."

Charles chose to pass the application without hesitation: "Deal."

He looked at Isabella: "Come on quickly, and give my siblings a good time."

The smile on the corner of Isabella's mouth deepened: "Of course."

Moments later, a war between nations was over.

Of course, using war to describe what happened just now is somewhat inappropriate.

To describe it in more accurate terms, this is just a one-sided massacre.

Even though Claude quickly exploded his troops in these few rounds and hired mercenaries from other neutral camps to help him at a high price, nothing helped.

As an imperial princess who has been educated in imperial studies since she was a child, the tactics Isabella uses and the level of on-the-spot command in person on the battlefield are completely different from Claude.

In just three rounds, the coalition of mercenaries that Claude spent a lot of money on was wiped out.

After another five rounds, the flag of the black eagle was flying above the capital representing the majesty of Claude's own kingdom.

[One break, Wolong comes out of the mountain]

[Player Claude's capital was destroyed, and he was officially eliminated from the game. The resource property and building territory left by him will be inherited by the winner. 】

"Charles, you traitor!"

Claude's sad and angry voice sounded along with the cold notification sound built into the game.

Charles slowly lowered the hand that was covering his eyes.

"Oh, getting older—"

"Some people can't stand these bloody scenes."

He thought for a while, and sent an in-game interactive emoticon package to Claude, who had already been eliminated——

[Player "Charles" sent you an emoticon package "touching the head"]

Claude looked at the emoticon of touching his head, and felt an inexplicable anger in his heart, but he couldn't tell the reason for the anger.

Immediately afterwards, he received two more messages.

[Player "Isabella" sent you an emoticon package "touching the head"]

[Player "Sylvia" sent you an emoticon package "touching the head"]

With Claude's exit, the game fell into a brief peace.

But obviously—

This peace will not last long.
