Chapter 300
Eboden before dawn was shrouded in diffuse mist, until the sea breeze dissipated, this lonely city on the coast was revealed to people.
Contrary to what the free nobles expected, His Majesty Eckhart’s mission did not come with great fanfare. He just informed us in advance. Even Legion, the empire responsible for martial law in the city, did not advance. Make any preparations.
If there were no letterheads and notices sent to the council in advance, they would not even know that the carriage of the mission had arrived outside the city, waiting to be greeted.
Such an excessive "low-key" really made the nobles a little sudden, even at a loss. In order to maintain absolute authority in the vassal and vassal state, the Imperial Family never missed a show. The opportunity of the empire's strength, the Empire Legion, which is currently blocking the city, and the giant dragon, which is still flying in the sky, are the best evidence.
Many Eboden nobles with a long history have read about Eboden’s official establishment as a city and becoming a vassal of the empire: three Legion flags and six giant dragons are coming at the same time!
And their ancestors, amidst the roar of giant dragons, lay on the ground one by one, shiver coldly kissing the emperor’s ring, sworn to be loyal to the Sacland Empire and the Desalion family forever .
Each time the emperor’s mission visits Eboden, the grandeur is comparable to the celebration of the Midsummer Festival-uncompromising awards, extravagant ostentation, four consecutive days of carnival, and a celebration in the cathedral The grand ceremony...
All the processes are aimed at one purpose: let the subjects and nobles of this city never forget their "positions". They are the courtiers of the empire and the emperor is their master.
For loyal courtiers and servants, the empire will never be stingy with awards.
Because of this, such an "abnormal" low-key has made many Eboden free nobles people were alarmed, worrying about whether this will be some kind of "omen", and they are anxious in the free parliament. Waiting in the lobby, staring nervously at the door of the room blocked by the two Legion soldiers...
"...In the name of the Supreme Emperor of the Empire, His Majesty Eckhart II Eboden expresses his sincere condolences. Such terrifying disaster is really regrettable."
Crow Seys, who was sitting across from Corona, was slightly nodded: "I hope this An ancient and vibrant city can be restored as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a heavy blow to the empire’s trade and the wizard class."
The empire’s messenger has a thin cheek but a tall stature, and looks only In his early forties, the exquisite dark-colored robe is decorated with deep blue silk and satin. On the collar is an opal sterling silver pin. The dark green pupils seem to be able to speak.
In the empire’s most common saying, this is a "pure-blooded" Sacrament who was born under the prince of Sacrament and grew up in Golovin, Imperial Capital.
"The sincere emotions between you and your majesty have deeply moved the entire Eboden-please also tell your majesty that this year’s taxes and Imperial Family tribute will be a lot for Eboden. Pay."
Corona was nodded, and replied: "The gold ship is ready to set off, and you can go to the Imperial Capital Golovin with all the members of the mission; as for the tribute... the ocean-going fleet is returning. On the way, please wait a few days."
"However, I think your Majesty sent an envoy to Eboden not just for these things, right?"
"I still Congratulations from your majesty. Congratulations on becoming the consul of Eboden, Lord Corona."
The sadness on Croweth’s face was fleeting and turned into a smile like a spring breeze: "Your Majesty always respects the tradition of Duchy of each subject. As for the consuls elected by the free assembly, I assure you that they will definitely be recognized by the empire!"
In a determined tone, and that makes Undoubtedly sincere-if not for the first time, I am afraid they will be regarded as Corona's old friend.
I am afraid that I am not moved by his "sincerity" when I change to someone else, and I can't help but guess whether this messenger has ulterior motives.
But Corona is different. The old man just chuckled and did not even see much change in his expression: "Then I don’t know how much we need to pay for the approval of'Your Majesty' ?"
"For example...accepting the permanent stationing of an empire full legion and paying for their military expenses?"
"There is absolutely no such need, even more how imperial Legion has more important missions-when Eboden restores order and stability, Legion will naturally withdraw. You can rest assured."
Crow Seyth implicitly said with a smiled, putting his hands on the table: "Of course, we must also face the reality. This turmoil has indeed brought a lot of impact to Eboden, and has also changed a lot-for example, the nine-pointed star wizard tower has become Eboden is the actual controller."
"The wizard Tabben is one of the components of Eboden, which is recognized by the free parliament." The old man calmly retorted: "A member of the council's wizard becomes the ruling party. Officer, it’s not something to be surprised."
"Yes, but that is only theoretical, but in fact we all know that you have been the first wizard consul since the founding of Eboden."
The messenger of the empire looked at Corona meaningfully: "This is a very remarkable achievement. It will surely make the entire empire's wizard Academy and wandering wizards feel incomparable shock and encouragement."
"It will also attract strong opposition from Holy Cross Church and all devout believers." Corona certainly knew what he wanted to say.
"You must know how much pressure Eckhardt II has taken for Eboden." Crow Seys said at a moderate pace: "As the defender of the Holy Cross, Your Majesty The opinions of the church must be respected, and the faith of the empire will not collapse."
"So, what is the price?"
"This matter can be discussed later, then Holy Cross Church will send a special envoy to meet with you." The imperial envoy waved his hand slightly, half-shining that this matter has nothing to do with him:
"As for this visit, it is just a routine; And in accordance with His Majesty’s instructions, Eboden is inconvenience and inconvenience. Please don’t cause trouble to the adults for some reasons."
"If this is the case, can you answer me as an old man? What about the little doubts, Lord Crow Seys?"
Corona, who spoke suddenly, let the imperial messenger who had stood up to sit down again, smiling and nodding: "Of course. May I have any questions?"
"We have already said a lot about Eboden." Corona raised his head slightly, and stared at the middle age person in front of him: "Why... even one sentence? Didn't mention the prince?"
Crow Seyth is still smiling, but the smile is gradually getting colder.
"Ah...Is this bothering you very much, Lord Corona?"
"Please tell me why." The old man acquiesced.
If there is no guarantee from Brandon and the Empire Legion is brought to Eboden, the wizard tower can also seize power from the Bellini family. The church acquiesced easily.
And it was also because of a prince to join them that the wizard tower reached a consensus and united, and elected him Lorenz Corona as the governor of Eboden-otherwise the city now I'm afraid it's still chaos. Not to mention the restoration of stability, even a consul who can be convinced by the majority cannot be elected.
There are twelve elders in the wizard tower. There are many supporters behind the Bellini family, plus those neutral free nobles and small businessmen. When the time comes, it is a situation where several parties are fighting.
But now, the Empire is desperately trying to get Brandon out of this incident. It is really doubtful and worrying...
"The only thing I can tell you Yes, His Royal Highness Brandon Desalion has nothing to do with the whole thing. His Royal Highness and Her Highness the Princess just passed by here accidentally and did not get involved."
The expression of the imperial messenger Dignified and earnest words: "Please, and you all the adults of the Free Council, remember this!"
At the same time, the Silver Hall where Brandon and Fitrony stayed is guarding Outside the door, Loren Torino looked coldly at the "servant" who came by the order of Lord Crowe Sieth and was responsible for explaining matters to the two His Highnesses. His left hand had already tightened the hilt of the sword around his waist. .
"Really...long time no see, Lord Loren Torino." The "Guardian" in front of him greeted him like an old friend.
"Yes, it's really long time no see." The black hair wizard murmured:
"Rout Infinit!"
