The immortal black snake just wants to live simply

Natalia finally rejected Snake Scales.

After all, she couldn't worry about her classmates and her subordinates.

"...Really? That's such a pity, Miss Natalia. But I will hide in secret to protect your safety."

After saying that, the snake scale disappeared from Natalia's sight.

No one noticed that Sonia and her group were hiding around the corner and eavesdropping...

No, maybe the two of them had already noticed it.

Natalia was not like her silly step-sister, who gave back to Cosich most of what Cosich had taught her.

Natalia has always taken Koscich's teachings to heart.

……

"Report, leader, we have obtained the core key to Chernobog."

"..."

'How did you get it? !Is it so easy to capture a city? '

"Thanks to Lord Bonebreaker and Lord Regicide, we successfully learned the core password of Chernobog from a guy named Sergei... Sir, what should we do?"

"...the time is not yet ripe."

'It's impossible to really start a war with Ursus, right?If the stubborn old man in Cosiche is really pushed into a hurry, it would be bad if he just throws the blame on us all. '

"...Sir, I understand! Someone is using the name of our integration movement this time, and we can't let this happen!"

"...You just need to understand."

'I really want to have a city of my own~ In this way, I can save more infected people and give them a warm home. '

'But is Cosiche injured? '

Chapter 95 Cosiche: Tallulah, I'm very disappointed in you.

"Tallulah, I'm very pleased to see you take the initiative to return the key to Ursus."

"……Are you OK?"

"..."

"I thought I saw you were hurt."

"...My daughter, what do you want again?"

"Am I in your heart that I will only care about you when I want something from you?! Also, I am not your daughter!"

"Haha... I'm just kidding. I'll accept your concern."

"So are you injured?"

"[Kasheena] was injured, very seriously...but it's okay. After a few months of training, she is in very good shape again."

"I've never been able to figure out why I've never seen any body other than this body of yours?"

"Are you curious?"

"...a little bit."

"Tallulah, it's obvious that you and Natalia were both taught by me, and you have been taught by me for longer... Why is it still so difficult for you to control your facial expressions? Your expression has betrayed you, you My curiosity cannot be considered 'somewhat'."

"...Isn't it too tiring to think so much about the people close to you?"

"Ha ha……"

"Uh……"

"Natalia has now learned how to win people's hearts through clever 'misunderstandings' and 'accidents', but what about you? What can you do without that Elafia? Even with the one who was still my heir at the time Compared with you, you have not grown at all, but have regressed."

"...I have also promoted the integration movement myself!"

"Oh, of course you have promoted it. 'As long as you wear a mask, everyone will join the movement.' This sentence is really great!"

"..."

"You should be responsible for your actions now, Tallulah. You cannot deny the identity of those infected who participated in the riots... and Ursus will not allow those thugs to survive."

"..."

"Tallulah, I regret to tell you that starting today, the Integration Movement will be officially blacklisted by Ursus... Of course, given that the Integration Movement has merit in returning the key to Chernobog, Ursus allows Give you some time to evacuate."

"...I'm sorry to disappoint you."

"I have never had expectations for you, Tallulah... From the moment you took the initiative to become an infected person, I have already given up my expectations for you."

……

"Sir, what are we going to do?"

The middle-aged officer asked his superior, General Ursus, in a panic.

"...At this point, what else can we do?"

The general changed his usual high-spirited appearance and began to drink with abandonment.

For him, defeat was sealed.

General Ursus never imagined that those ancient legends that had been circulated in Ursus were not just stories made up by the Duke to win over the people.

He truly has extraordinary power.

However, it was too late.

Now, if he still wants to save his family, then surrendering without mercy is a good choice.

"General, we still have a chance."

The middle-aged officer said sincerely.

"The Duke of Cosiche violated the [contract] signed with the emperor and interfered without authorization in the operation of Ursus cities outside of his territory... We can make a fuss from this."

"Are you scared out of your wits by Duke Cosiche? You can even come up with such stupid ideas..."

"But this is not my personal delusion, sir."

In the middle-aged officer's mind, the black snake began to squirm slowly.

"Cosiche did display His extraordinary strength, but some of our informants also saw that He was injured."

The middle-aged officer spoke sincerely.

"And isn't this a good opportunity for the emperor? After all, Duke Cosiche has despised the imperial power for too long..."

"..."

The general couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Is he really willing to give up everything he has to others?

No, he never!

Even the words of the middle-aged officer cannot withstand scrutiny to some extent.

But as long as there is a slight possibility, it is enough for the general to convince himself.

The black snake in the middle-aged officer's mind was also satisfied with the general's performance.

He deliberately amplified the general's "lucky" mentality.

'After all, if you show weakness, how can I hold high the banner of justice and eradicate you completely? '

'The people don't like to see the powerful Kosiche scheming and eradicating the forces that oppose him. '

'What they like to see is the benevolent Corsi who has no choice but to clear out this group of unrepentant white-eyed wolves. '

'...'

'Alas~ After this batch is killed, I don't know when a new batch will appear. '

'Why are these short-lived species so adventurous? '

……

"Your Majesty, there are currently two views among the people. One accuses Koscich of violating the contract previously signed with Your Majesty, interfering with Chernobog without authorization, and announcing that the leader of the integration movement is actually the daughter of the Duke. The other is that Support Cosiche, thinking that he protected the city of Ursus from natural disasters, and the daughter of the duke was expelled from her home by Cosiche long ago, so we cannot impose the other party's mistakes on Cosiche."

"...Two views, which one is the mainstream?"

"The latter, Your Majesty."

"...Public opinion has really been manipulated by Him."

"Your Majesty, I didn't know that we..."

"Announce to the outside world that the Duke of Koscice was ordered by me to go to Chernobog to support. Also, although the Duke of Koscice has merit, he is also responsible for the mistakes made by his previous heir. .”

"……what do you mean."

"Make the former heir as much as possible into a blind and arrogant idealist who is accidentally exploited. People always have a little tolerance for idealists... By the way, suspend Duke Cosiche from his post. time, retaining the title and the autonomy of the territory."

"Would this displease the Duke of Cosiche?"

"Of course not. Ursus is able to allow the existence of Duke Cosich not only because of his strength and kindness to the empire, but also because he knows how to let go... Speaker Witte, do you think that we Ursus really don't have it?" Able to deal with him?"

"...Of course not, Your Majesty. The greatness of Ursus has never been supported by just one immortal."

……

Outside the residence of the Duke of Cosiche, letters of condolences and gifts were already placed.

The Happiness and Security Committee showed the most sincere smile to everyone who came to visit Duke Cosiche, and politely refused most people's intention to go in to visit Duke Cosiche on the grounds that Duke Cosiche was recuperating. .

Except, of course, the kids.

A few children, chosen as representatives, came to visit the Duke of Cosiche as he lay in bed.

The Ursusian media rushed to report on the incident.

Lying on the hospital bed, Cosiche looked at the children with childish performances and sincere but crude gifts with a kind smile on his face.

'It's torture...but keep smiling. '

After all, He wanted to maintain a good image for the people of Ursus.

Even in His eyes, these ephemeral species have short memories and fickle emotions.

Chapter 96: Strange, why do I feel that my sister is being carried by a man?

The Duke of Cosiche lay in bed for three days before he could walk tremblingly.

As for why it was Kashena who was injured, and the one who was ill in bed was the Duke of Cosiche...

Of course, it is because the body of Duke Cosiche is well-known and can arouse the emotions of the people.

Moreover, Kasheena's body is on the verge of collapse and is in a critical period of recuperation, so she cannot be disturbed.

Koscich put on a weak look, struggled to pick up a newspaper and read it.

'Well~ everything is as planned. '

'The emperor had recovered most of his power, and the remainder was divided among the loyal royalist Chancellor, Witte and other interest groups. '

'...the conflict between the new aristocracy and the old aristocracy, the struggle between the new generation and the old generation.No matter when, it will never stop. '

'Let's put Ursas's affairs aside during this period. '

……

"Xi, can't you draw some Longmen coins?"

Zhu Jiuyin carried a picture scroll on his back and a peach wood sword on his waist, wandering around the streets of Longmen boredly.

"Where's your own money? Don't you have a lot of money?"

A woman's voice came from the scroll.

"Please, have you forgotten my current identity? I am a fortune teller who travels around the world, and is free and easy. How can I carry a lot of common things with me?"

"……Neuropathy."

"What qualifications do you have to criticize me, a lazy idiot?"
