PS: There seems to be nothing going on at home lately, so I’m just going to update one more chapter. Seeing how hard I’ve worked so hard, please order all of them! Please give me a vote!
PS2: The recent plots will be a little more focused on supporting characters. Some people are not satisfied with this, but what I hope is to see the situation and customs of the old world through some perspectives, so I will write fewer jokes and protagonists, but please don’t worry.
, will be back soon, and there will be a series of big plots next.
Elector Wolfram Hertwig has always been unfavorable to Knight King Ryan because Ryan is similar to him in age. When Ryan became famous in the Kingdom of Nord, Hertwig had just announced his appointment as Austrian King.
Speaker of the Stemark Alliance and Elector of Bekafen, he was only three or four years older than Ryan at this time.
Hertwig, who had just become the Elector and Chancellor, was young and energetic. He once made an unforgivable mistake in the subsequent Battle of the Black Road. Young, energetic and eager to make meritorious deeds, he refused the guidance of the Grand Master of the Knights of Eternal Light.
He also made rude remarks, which ultimately caused all knights of the Knights to withdraw from the battle.
, Hertwig finally won the Battle of the Black Road without the help of the knights, but at the cost of more than 10,000 casualties. It took Ostermark three years to recover. At that time
Almost everyone in the city was killed, and it took the Moorish priests several months to complete the prayer.
This incident gave Hertwig a blow. The elector has since realized two things. First, as the supreme leader of the province, as long as he makes any wrong decision, his people will suffer.
There will be a huge price to pay for this, and countless good men will die because of his wrong decision. Therefore, as a decision-maker, he must be cautious and must not act out of emotion.
The second is that he must bring the nobles and knights under his control. It is impossible to win the final victory by fighting alone. Ostermark must unite.
Since then, the elector has embarked on the legendary "road unimagined".
He severely cracked down on the privileges of the nobility, not only requiring them to eat and look good, but also requiring them to follow his footsteps. The elector himself set an example and rode his gryphon mount "Blood Feather" to the front line in every battle.
When there is no battle, he often rides a griffon to patrol the territory's defense lines and villages.
Internally, Hertwig lived a frugal life, vigorously reduced unnecessary expenses, and often shared the joys and sorrows with the soldiers. His elector palace was very simple, and his favorite was the dead soldiers recruited and selected by civilians.
The elite of the Skull Army. Externally, he limits the privileges of the Knights and Nobles to prevent them from being excessively greedy and exploiting civilians. He balances the forces of the Church of Justice, the Church of Nature and the White Wolf Church, and reaches a series of mutual aid agreements with the Moorish Church of Death.
This controls the situation.
Because the Ostermark government is a special parliamentary system, the common people and the middle class have a large say in the parliament due to historical reasons, enough to confront the nobility and the church. The geographical location and external pressure of the Ostermark Alliance also
It was decided that this was a flat social structure, so the nobles had nothing to do with the speaker who was fully supported by the common people.
(Because all the originally huge aristocratic forces were wiped out in the collision of Mordheim's twin-tailed comet, there are not many big aristocrats like Ostermark with a long history in Ostermark, and the overall strength is not strong).
Since then, Hertwig has finally united Ostermark into a powerful fist, ready to respond to various threats.
Therefore, the elector's attitude toward the famous Knight King Ryan gradually changed from contempt, disdain, surprise, and surprise to forced recognition, recognition, and respect, especially after hearing the news of the victory of the Eight Peaks Mountain Expedition.
, although Elector Hertwig still felt very unhappy in his heart (the man looked down upon him), he still recognized and respected Ryan's ability and level.
When Teclis visited the empire, Hertwig and Teresa met. As mentioned above, he had to give Ryan face, so after getting the news, Hertwig immediately made arrangements for the meeting.
At the end, he hurried over to meet Aurora and Theresa.
From the mouths of Aurora and Theresa, Hertwig learned a reality that was like a bolt from the blue (even though it was cloudy all year round). Skydome Castle had suffered huge changes, the Glory Council was almost completely destroyed, and the army of Tzeentch
It ravaged and destroyed the place.
"How could this happen?" Hertwig touched his thick mustache. The Elector was very surprised. He asked repeatedly: "Including Her Majesty Katalin, you have five Holy Domain witches. How could it be so easy?
Let the Chaos Demonic Army succeed? What happened? Also, isn’t the Demon Hunter Supreme Master Ernst also in the Sky Castle?"
"Katalin did not attend the big meeting, the elder Carolina suddenly rebelled, and Veronica left early..." Teresa told the story to Elector Hertwig, and the sorceress' mood stopped.
Unable to control her grief, she took a few minutes to tell the whole story.
"That's it." Hertwig expressed sympathy for this. The Elector thought for a few seconds and immediately said: "I am very sorry about this. What happened in the Gloria Council is a loss for all mankind... So,
Are you here to seek help? What can I do for you? Do you need help from the Ostermark army? Or do you need material assistance from me? Or do you want me to send someone?
Are you going to Brittany?"
Normally, as an elector, Hertwig would not be so easy to offer help, especially mobilizing the army, but again, with Theresa's identity here, he had to give it to Ryan.
So instead of being passive, it's better to be proactive: "If you need anything, just ask, it's okay."
"We..." Before Teresa could speak, Aurora took over the topic. The Holy Witch said politely: "What we ask for is also very low. Mr. Hertwig, we are no longer what we used to be."
We are satisfied with having a place to stay. We don’t want to mobilize the army or anything else. We are exhausted physically and mentally now. We just hope there is a place to place the remaining witches. Everyone is tired."
"Ah?!" Elector Hertwig looked strange. He turned around mentally and immediately understood what Aurora meant. The elector laughed and said in a joking tone: "Aurora
Ms. La, you are really ridiculous, haha~ Are you still in the mood to joke at this time? How can a place like our Ostermark accommodate so many wizards? Besides, I already have Andreas (Hercules) here.
The chief magical advisor to the Elector Twiggy, the legendary flame wizard)."
"But I heard that Andreas von Esslingen blew up his wizard tower during an experiment and is now running around the empire collecting donations from nobles?" Aurora said, "In that case...
…”
Elector Hertwig's attitude changed drastically. He immediately changed from an enthusiastic state to a polite tone with a touch of alienation: "Ms. Aurora, this joke is not allowed. Ms. Theresa is King Ryan's wife."
Female courtier, and you were working for him in Britannia before, right? If I
After you are eliminated, His Majesty Ryan will ask me for someone. How should I explain to him? Furthermore, does Ms. Theresa also want to stay here? Doesn’t this mean declaring war with Britannia? Our empire and the knights
The kingdom has just signed a treaty, so you don’t want me to continue to be elected, right?"
Aurora's expression changed instantly.
The Sanctuary Witch suddenly realized there was a complete mistake in her decision.
How did she get Hertwig's warm reception and proactive help?
The reason is that her daughter is wearing Ryan's tiger skin! If she hadn't been wearing Ryan's tiger skin, she wouldn't have been able to meet the elector so easily!
She is putting the cart before the horse! She is wearing Ryan's tiger skin and smashing her own feet!
At this time, the Holy Witch laughed dryly, and she could only say casually: "Isn't this just to get closer to Her Majesty Katalin? Kislev is encountering many difficulties now, and I think Her Majesty Katalin may need to
Our help.”
"Kisler?" Hertwig dismissed it as a joke: "I was just going to tell you this. Recently, many Mrs. Kisler have come to the north. It is said that they all came here secretly because they could not stand the Tsar's rule.
Yes, they immediately blended into many villages and cities here
Town, I am also worried about what will happen if Her Majesty Katalin asks me for someone? The situation in the Ice and Snow Kingdom has been very bad recently. We have sent reinforcements one after another to Kislev to assist in the defense. If possible,
Can you ask, what is Her Majesty Katalin doing?"
Ostermark had always had a good relationship with Kislev in history, but the Elector Hertwig was obviously dissatisfied with Kislev's current situation.
Aurora and Theresa have nothing to say about this. Although they are both ice witches, their relationship can only be considered average. They only have an occasional meal. Aurora can only cover it up a little.
After the matter was covered up, Teresa saw her mother's embarrassing situation and said directly: "Your Excellency Hertwig, we plan to return to Britannia. Can you send someone to take us out of here?"
"Of course, you can rest for a day first, and I will arrange the fleet and people." Elector Hertwig readily agreed: "And I will have people prepare materials for long-distance travel to ensure that you are safely transported.
Down the river to Marienburg!”
After saying that, without waiting for Teresa to answer, the Elector himself stood up immediately: "I have something else to do next, so I won't accompany you for now. Our empire and the Kingdom of Knights are allies. This is my adjutant. If there is any
If you need anything, you can ask him. We will help in any way we can. You should go back and rest early. We are all tired after encountering such a big thing."
After saying that, Hertwig left immediately without any delay.
The sorceress, mother and daughter could only be politely sent out of the Elector's Palace.
The cold and desolate wind blew the skirts of Aurora and Theresa. Theresa whispered: "Mother, let me tell you, going to Britannia is the only choice for us survivors. You
Why don’t you believe me? Ryan is so kind to us. Anyway, if I want to go back, you have to go back with me!”
"Yes, the roads are all cut off." Aurora also realized that with Theresa's special status, there would be no place for them in the empire. No elector dared to take them in, so she wanted to have both sides.
Even more impossible, the only option is to go to Britannia, the Holy Land
The witch sighed, lowered her head and smiled bitterly: "Now it seems that the outcome has already been determined. Let's go back and convince Adriana and the others that since they have surrendered, they must surrender completely and without any reservation. Let's see if Ryan will
would be willing to allow us to retain some autonomy."
Damn it, that big boy who was respectful in front of me back then, now he actually...
Aurora was still very unwilling, but she knew she had no other choice.
In this case, the only way left is to gain some status and autonomy for herself in Ryan's court. Aurora closed her eyes and thought, daughter, don't blame me, this is all for the Glory Council.
There is no other choice for the future.
…………I am the dividing line with no other choice……
Meanwhile, Old World, Brittany, Bordeaux, Mannann dry docks.
The Poseidon Fleet docked here. Lieutenant General Kislev Ugor Cavalry, Beria Gulag finally stepped on his military boots and set foot on the land of Bordero. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the waves.
The warm sunshine and the smell of the sea breeze in Derro, everything here is so beautiful and intoxicating.
Those who had the same feeling as him were the large group of Ugor soldiers who boarded the dock behind him, as well as a large number of Kislev immigrants.
And just on the pier, Knight King Ryan Malcador, Queen Surya, Imperial Baroness Emmanuel, with the Old Guards and the Nur Armored Army, greeted them on the pier. Ryan looked at the large group,
The Kislev immigrants, who were a little scared and uneasy about the future, smiled with satisfaction.
Maybe this is called exchanging cans for airplanes?
Beria was waiting on the pier when he saw Ryan. He rushed up quickly in fear, immediately knelt down on one knee in front of Ryan and Sulia, and said loudly: "My Majesty, Beria is not lucky.
Disgracefully, we successfully completed His Majesty’s mission! We also took in many homeless refugees!”
"Very good, very good, Beria, you really gave me a big surprise!" Ryan nodded repeatedly with a smile, and he stretched out his hand to signal Beria to get up: "You did a good job in this matter!
You have merit."
"Your Majesty has given you great guidance and provided full support, whether it is military funds or exclusive rights. If it were not for the trust of Your Majesty and the Queen, I, Beria Gulag, would never have the chance to achieve my goals. I would not dare to
The credit and credit belong to His Majesty the King and Queen Surya. I just followed your instructions faithfully." Beria said sincerely: "Now, please give your Majesty's instructions, what should we do?"
"Hmph!" Amelia, who was dressed up in a dress, snorted dissatisfiedly when she saw that she had been ignored, and reached out to hold Sulia's arm. Sulia smiled softly and let her hold her arm.
.
"Don't worry, where is the goods?" Ryan narrowed his eyes.
"Bring it! It's on the big bed inside. Engineer Urban from Ostermark is willing to serve you and your Majesty!"
