Diana is also a focus.She has firm beliefs, outstanding willpower, mature values, and is not easily influenced by others.

She hates evil and acts impartially.Her nickname is [Diana the Just]. This is by no means a yin and yang thing, but an objective evaluation of her.

You definitely can't use the same method to persuade Deanna as you did to Shirley.

Intimidation and inducement were of no use to her. If she was offended, she might die together with Matthew.

Treating guests to dinner, sending flowers, and necklaces, etc., are not acceptable methods of picking up girls.The first is that Matthew himself is not very good at this, and the second is that Deanna doesn't accept this at all.

Two years ago, she publicly announced that she would serve the Lord of Holy Light for the rest of her life and would never marry.

If this kind of words were said by others, Matthew would think it was price gouging, but when Deanna said it, it was unshakable determination.

To put it simply, she can only wait until she recognizes Matthew.

Matthew promised Deanna that she could do whatever she wanted this month.As long as Diana was not blind, she would have been able to see that he was wronged and that he was a good person!

He was just a little confused, what was Diana doing now?

Deanna was looking through the minutes.

During the monthly meeting during the day, Deanna was so exhausted that she fell asleep leaning against the back of her seat.She was curious about what was discussed in the second half of the meeting.

Looking through the meeting minutes, Deanna found this blank space.

Marry?Earl Matthew is getting married this year.

Most nobles will get engaged before the age of 15, and the Rundebell family seems to have revised the marriage for horses.

This is very reasonable. The Rundebell family is one of the imperial electors, and Matthew is the only son of the family. His marriage must not be careless.

It stands to reason that the two parties should discuss matters such as the fulfillment of the engagement when Matthew becomes an adult, but since Matthew became the Heartbroken King, it seems that the marriage has basically become a thing of the past.

According to the rules of the empire, in order to prevent electors from becoming bigger, they cannot marry each other, so most electors choose to marry nobles with close status.

(Due to the existence of the elector system, the Clare Empire does not have a fixed royal family. It can also be considered that the families of the electors are all royal families)

Diana put away her gossip and continued reading, and soon discovered something that shocked her outlook.

【Service Table】

Of course Diana understands what it means to serve.

But none of this has anything to do with her.

This is Matthew's freedom.

Chapter 008 Shirley’s mentality has undergone some changes

Diana put the meeting minutes away casually.

Of course she would not interfere in Earl Matthew's personal affairs.

What he did was completely legal, and even his wife had no control over it.

As a high-ranking noble, it is reasonable to keep several maids for physical and mental pleasure.

Maybe it was because Matthew didn't take advantage of others' danger to possess her, which made her expect more of Matthew's personal ethics.

Sure enough, she was overthinking.Men are lustful after all.

Under the soft magic lamp, Diana was silently in a daze.

Perhaps it was because of Matthew's orderly management of the territory, or perhaps because of the things mentioned in the regular meeting, that Diana could not help but regard Matthew as a fellow traveler with whom she could communicate heartily.

It's a pity that he is a noble after all, and he is the "Demon King of Lost Hearts".

He was playing with not only the soul, but also the soft and soft body of the beautiful girl.

He is no different from those nobles.

Sistini, who was sitting opposite, silently observed Diana, watching Diana's expression go through the entire process from heaven to earth.

She could guess Diana's changes in mentality, but she couldn't empathize.

Although Diana's attitude was fair, the arrogance emanating from the depths of her soul still made the head maid very unhappy.

As long as Matthew did not rebel, his words would be law to the Earl of Rundebell, and it would be no one's turn to accuse him.

Taking back the meeting minutes, Sistini asked politely and distantly: "Miss Diana, is there anything else you need?"

"No, I'm tired." This time Diana was really tired, not only physically but also mentally.

"Please come with me."

Sistine took Diana to a quiet bedroom on the fourth floor of the castle.Handing the key to Diana, Sistine said with an impeccable polite smile:

"Miss Diana, the bathroom is at the end of the corridor. The male servants and soldiers of the castle are all on the first floor, so you don't have to worry about being harassed."

"Beside the bathroom is the cloakroom and changing room. You can wear the clothes there after bathing. If you need other services, you can ring the bell to call the maid. Wish you a good dream."

"Thank you."

Diana looked at Sistine's swaying figure as she left, and understood Matthew a little more.With so many beauties surrounding them, how many of them can hold their own?

After taking a simple shower in the bathroom, Diana sat on the bed in a daze.

The day that just ended was as unreal as an April Fools' Day joke.

He set out early in the morning, but was ambushed by assassins from the [Orichalcum Brotherhood]. Although they killed all the assassins, both men and horses were poisoned.

After removing the poisonous needle and performing simple treatment and bandaging, she planned to find a priest for further treatment.

Unfortunately, she overlooked one point. There is no priest in Matthew's territory.

Then she encountered a monster, and then there was a treatment incident that she couldn't bear to look back on.

Putting on her pajamas and sitting on the bedside, Diana was a little confused.

By the way, what on earth is she going to do?Yes, yes, her mission is to conduct reconnaissance to obtain information about Matthew and wait for an opportunity to kill him.

Looking down at the translucent silk pajamas, Diana was speechless.To investigate the castle of the Heartless Demon King and still wear such shameful pajamas, he must have done a solid job.

Looking at the pale blue moon in the night sky, she made a decision.

The assassination of Matthew can be postponed until the favor is repaid.But gathering intelligence must be done quickly.

Since Matthew pretended to let her move around as she pleased, he would take this opportunity to walk around the countryside and listen to the real voices of the people at the bottom.

If everyone says that Matthew exacts excessive taxes, then he is a hypocrite.

If everyone says Matthew is a good lord, then he is a good lord.

If Matthew is acting, sooner or later he will be exposed.

Have a good rest, we have to travel tomorrow.

......

Just when Deanna was very disciplined and went to bed early, Shirley was suffering from insomnia.

The room she lived in was separated by several walls from Diana, and they had met just now while taking a shower in the bathroom.

They recognized each other's identities.

[Knights of Walder] and [Angel Legion] are both private armed forces with strong religious overtones.Although they are said to be private armed forces, their strength is stronger than that of ordinary kingdoms.

The Walder Knights have two legions, [Heaven] and [Holy Light], with 3 regular knights and more than 7 infantry and auxiliary troops.

The Angel Legion has two legions, [Shadow] and [Discipline], with a total number of about [-].

These two major groups have the ability to influence the political situation of major countries, and ordinary countries cannot afford to offend them.

Diana is considered a senior leader in the Knights, ranking almost fifth in the order of power.The dirty work of detecting the Heartless Demon King was not something she had to do personally, but she was used to taking the lead and took the initiative to take over the task.

Shirley's status in the Angel Legion is far inferior to that of Diana. She is considered a middle-level elite and one of the young masters trained by the Legion's top brass.

Although there is competition and overlap between the Knights and the Angel Legion, both parties believe in the Lord of Holy Light and can be regarded as partners in the same camp.

Deanna and Shirley had met several times, but they were not acquaintances.After recognizing each other's identities, they both chose to play dumb.

Who are you? I'm not familiar with you.

They are performing a secret mission, which is equivalent to dancing on three eggs. If they are not careful, they may be discovered.

Being discovered by Matthew will definitely not end well.Even if the other party is from the same camp, you can't believe it!When performing special tasks, the only people you can trust are yourself and the weapons in your hands.

Back in the room, Shirley put on translucent pajamas and was a little speechless.

Fortunately, the Heartless Demon King was generous and allowed her to choose additional terms, and even reduced the proportion of the proceeds to a minimum.

She chose the terms that prevented Matthew from using the contract to violate her.She doesn't mind sacrificing her life to achieve her goals, but she's not willing to spread her legs to get the job done.

This is her bottom line.

Sitting on the bedside, she recalled what happened today.

She reviewed today's performance carefully.Every detail, every expression and movement, every line of dialogue and even her battle with the maid group had to be reviewed carefully.

Being in a devil's cave, every step is startling, and every detail must be carefully considered.

After thinking about it carefully, she probably didn't act badly.If she really failed in her performance, Matthew would never give her such generous conditions.

She took out her space backpack and poured the magic materials assigned to her by Matthew onto the table.

Looking at the various rare materials piled on the table, she became even more speechless.

What's this?It turned out to be the neck scales of the ice dragon.

This is...this soft and smooth feel and the cold chill, could it be the tail feathers of the Ice Phoenix?

Stroking the tail feathers of the Ice Phoenix, Shirley's mentality changed somewhat.

When she was in the Angel Corps, Teacher Grandet always taught her to be frugal.

"Personal cultivation requires some resources, but more importantly, one's own efforts. You have been stuck at the peak of the intermediate level for two years and still have not made a breakthrough. It is not possible to continue like this."

"Child, the teacher is a little disappointed in you."

Shirley was very aggrieved. She had a rare ice physique, so she really couldn't rely entirely on herself in cultivation.

She needs a lot of ice-attributed magic materials to assist her practice, but the distribution of materials from the legion is always beyond her reach.

She also thought about using her salary and bonus to buy the Ice Phoenix tail feathers by herself.But this thing is too expensive.Her monthly salary is 1000 mira and her year-end bonus is 3000 mira.

Even if she doesn't eat or drink, she still has to save for three years.

But she is a human being after all, how could she not eat or drink.Renting a house costs money, food and drink cost money, daily cultivation costs money, everything costs money!

She couldn't get even this salary in full.As a clergyman, she must take the lead in paying the faith fee.

Ordinary believers can pay one-tenth of their income. As a devout believer, she must pay one-fifth.

Fortunately, the empire doesn't charge her taxes, otherwise she would really cry.

She had also considered converting completely. After she fully converted, she would not have to pay the faith fee and could still receive the faith subsidy.

But she still couldn't figure out why, since everyone was a fighting priest, a complete convert who swore not to get married could still receive subsidies without paying any money, while she had to support these worms.

Everyone is a believer in a great god, is there any distinction between high and low?

She was so poor that she accepted the mission to assassinate Matthew.If she doesn't make a breakthrough, her talent will be completely buried, and she will never have the chance to become a high-level combat priest.

Thinking of this, she felt aggrieved.

After all, she is also a celestial being, with a good status, but she has to suffer such grievances just because her family background is not good.

Before setting off, she applied to Teacher Grandet again, hoping that the legion could lend her an Ice Phoenix tail feather to help her break through the realm.

As long as there is a breakthrough, the chance of assassination will be much greater.

Unfortunately, the answer she received was still perfunctory.

Teacher Grandet told her the story of the dedicated model in the army in a pleasant manner.

In the end, she got nothing.Teacher Grandet gave her all the support except help.

Shirley had to take a risk. Only by killing Matthew could she get enough reward in exchange for the Phoenix Feathers.

Although she is definitely no match for Matthew in a head-on fight, there are many ways to assassinate him.

For example, "Dalang, please drink the medicine quickly", such as "This chicken soup is really delicious, drink it quickly".

Shirley is good at cooking. As long as she can win Matthew's trust, she can find a way to get into the kitchen and make a bowl of loving chicken soup for Matthew.

This lustful man will be attracted by the delicious taste of chicken soup, and the chicken soup will turn into a soup.
