Chapter 4 For the Alliance (4)
"Ah? Is it okay not to take Hestein? He is the supreme king of the Pirate Kingdom?"
"Of course it's okay! And you can't bring him with you!"
Ella really doesn't like Hestein!
This dislike is not because of some specific events or because of some interest entanglement. When Hestein went to explore Wenlan, because he could not usually contact him, Ella even thought Hestein was a good person. But when Hestein returned to China and got along these few days, Ella found that he and him were simply incompatible!
"I won't mention the fact that he is going to go to war with the Almani Federation! Amy, don't you know how outrageous what he did when he was in Aztland! I messed up the Sun King's military deployment and exposed the Sun King's weaknesses to the two armies. He just took the army directly to fight, but he couldn't get along with me and insisted on attacking the Sun King's main force later! Let's do the things! This guy's thinking is not on the same channel as me! If he went to the Almani Federation with me, he would definitely mess up my plan!"
Speaking of this, Ella angrily smashed the armrest of the chair. Amy, who heard Ella complaining, whispered: "It was obvious that Hestein was doing a good job and wanted to hire Hestein..."
"That's the case this time! He has no sense of diplomacy at all! I can already imagine the scene at the negotiating table: I proposed an alliance, and the Count of Ile-de-France shirked, and I was about to persuade him further, but Hestein banged the negotiation table and drew his sword and shouted; 'Do you want an alliance or do you want me to cut it?', one hundred percent will develop into this!"
"Your Majesty, if you deduce it, there is no need to really overturn the table..."
A bunch of guards rushed in after hearing the sound of the table being overturned. Amy waved awkwardly and signaled them to retreat.
"But Amy, it's going to develop like this, right? Don't you think so? This is Hestein!"
"I can't deny this..."
"The church of the Tianfang Empire has already had a considerable force in the Almani Federation, with many believers, and an apostle in charge. Therefore, our actions this time must be very cautious and absolutely not exposed. I am going to pretend to be a businessman from a foreign country and do not use any manpower from the pirate kingdom to avoid people's eyes and ears. From this point of view, taking Shanghai Stein will only make things troublesome!"
"Hey? Don't bring soldiers from the Pirate Kingdom?"
"Of course, the characteristics of soldiers in the Pirate Kingdom are too obvious. Last time we landed in Stadt for trade, we got off the shore and all the people ran away? It wouldn't be possible to let them change to the Toga!!! This time we pretended to be Aztlans! Amy, didn't you wear the same clothes as turkey when you came back? With your temperament, there must be more than one set, right? Just dress up in that way! There are Aztlans among the servants you brought back, right? Just use them to start! Plus, Amy, you, a big elf-level magician, is enough!"
"Your Majesty! Please don't compare my dress to a turkey casually! I'm more or less a girl!"
Amy protested quietly. But Ella didn't listen at all as usual. She was so excited that she jumped out of the chair and walked back and forth in the room.
"By the way, Amy, the ship cannot use the flying SELAND, it is too conspicuous. You can't use the long ship of the Pirate Kingdom, just rent a merchant ship to do business. There is also cargo. Since you have to pretend to be a caravan in a foreign country, you can't use the cargo of the Pirate Kingdom. We also use the specialties of Aztland... Let Dust be responsible for the preparations. You must sneakily avoid the eyes and ears of others, and you cannot let people know that I am preparing these things. Especially avoiding Hestein!"
"Your Majesty, that Dust is not in Gotland now, so he can't be responsible for this matter..."
"Ah?" Ella stopped, "Master, shouldn't he drink and tell stories every day in the tavern?"
"The rumors were that a few days ago, a man who sounded like Dust bragged in a tavern, saying that he was the authentic successor of the Mistertin clan's swordsmanship. Then a red-haired blindfolded woman in the same tavern angrily slapped the table and said that she wanted to try his sword. The man who sounded like Dust drew out his sword in a crooked manner and provoked the red-haired woman a few times, but the red-haired woman suddenly knocked off the sword. Then he was grabbed and dragged out by the red-haired woman, saying that he would take it to the sword saint to deal with it... Then I found that Dust and Lily disappeared from Gotland."
Ella stared at Amy blankly. The two of them stared at each other with big eyes.
"...Your Majesty, haven't you heard of it?"
"Conspiracy! This must be Hestein's conspiracy!" Ella screamed with her head in her arms, "He wanted to master my every move and knew that Master was the biggest threat, so she sent Lily to kill Master!"
"I think it's just because Dust is just bragging too much..."
"You are too naive Amy! Do you know what I have experienced in the Sun King's man named Xue Chipepe? Now is the extremely critical moment. Someone may eavesdrop on our conversation in a dark corner at any time and report it to Hestein! Do you know how dangerous this is? What I just mentioned is a top-secret plan, top-secret!"
"Then your majesty, you were still talking about poisoning at the port where people were coming and going in the morning..."
"No matter what, we must avoid Hestein's eyes and ears! I am a disciple of my master after all, and I will not admit defeat so easily!"
Ella began to pace back and forth in the restaurant again, pinching her chin and thinking.
"Your Majesty, that's just Hestein..."
When it was hot, Ella still didn't listen to this as usual.
"Forget it, this is also a good thing for His Majesty."
Amy sighed. Ella can use all her wisdom to those who have already been clear about being an enemy, but she has never been very careful about those close to her. Although this time it was a little too much, it was also a kind of improvement that she was willing to doubt Hestein.
"I have it!" Ella hammered her palm, "In order to cover up, an academic seminar was held at the college! All parties exchanged their research results for fifteen days!"
"ah???"
Amy was stunned. With her head, she couldn't think of any relationship between academic seminars and concealing people's eyes.
