Chapter 114 I want to quit the king's election (4k)
"It has been a month." Greya looked at the manor guards in front of him, his eyes seemed to be filled with anger, "It has been a month since that incident. It’s been a month!”
“He is a good person, and he has made such a big fuss. He cannot disappear for no reason!”
"But why don't you guys find even a single clue?!"
"I'm very, very sorry, Master Gloria." One of the guards felt his Angry and sweating, he said, "But we have searched the entire Sauron Mountains and all surrounding areas, and there really is no clue."
"It's the same even if a sealed object is used. Young Master Lin En is like... like he has disappeared from the world."
"Keep looking for me! I said, if you want to see people alive, you will see corpses. ! !"
Grea roared.
Although he is the second son of the Augusta family, he has always been gentle and humble, and has never shown such a violent side.
“Don’t be too angry.” Morris behind him suddenly came over and patted his shoulder gently, “After all, we should have been mentally prepared for this kind of thing. , isn’t it?”
Hearing his words, Grea's expression suddenly became a little depressed.
He doesn’t want this either.
But Lin En is one of the few friends he has in this world.
What's more, it was obviously him who saved everyone.
In the end, he was not recorded in the Empire's Book of Honor and military medals.
This last bloodline from the Bart Leon family seemed to have been wiped away from all traces of its existence in this world by the invisible hands of those damn nobles.
Looking at the bronze medal of glory hanging on his chest, Greya sighed softly.
After the riot at the Wishing Jar, everyone who participated in the mission that day, including him, received rewards from the empire.
The coverage is so wide that it is said to have caused dissatisfaction among many people even in the distant imperial capital of Glostin.
The nobles strongly condemned, believing that these people were promoted too quickly and had never even been on the demon battlefield, which was not in line with the principles of the military.
In the end, it was Duke Tyrius himself who wrote a fierce letter and sent it to Saint Laurent VI to finalize the matter.
That’s ridiculous.
If the core figure in this incident were replaced by any prince, the imperial capital would not have reacted so violently.
It’s just because they are loyal to the third princess Yvester.
“Your Highness, what’s going on now?”
Gloria suddenly asked.
Morris shook his head slightly: "She has initially regained consciousness, but the situation is not good."
"She seemed to have completely closed her heart, except for the occasional meeting with Afia chatted for a few words, but no matter what others said to her, there was no reaction. "
The physical injuries are easy to heal, but the psychological ones are difficult to explain.
Tell the truth.
As a subordinate of Ivester, he never imagined that the royal princess to whom he was loyal would one day become in despair.
And all this is just because of one man.
It seems that to her, that guy is really different from others.
The two of them fell into silence at the same time.
Obviously, they both grew up a lot after the wishing jar incident.
Gloria was no longer as ambitious as usual, she just wanted to marry a baron's daughter and live a stable life.
He was deeply aware of his own weakness, so he followed the arrangements of his father and brother Rhine, joined the Church of Abundance, and became a transcendent.
And his goal is no longer to live out his retirement in a plantation in the south.
Gloria suddenly wanted to go to the imperial capital to have a look.
Look at those high-ranking nobles and see how their hearts grow.
Why can it be so dirty?
While the two of them were looking at each other without saying anything, the maid's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"Master Ge, Master Gloria, Master Morris, two guests suddenly came outside the manor, claiming to be members of some Hollyoak organization, and wanted to see His Highness!"
St. Oak Agency? !
Hearing this name, a hint of surprise flashed across the eyes of Maurice and Gloria.
Although I had long expected that they would come, I never thought that they would come so quickly.
“Let’s go and check out the situation together.”
Afiya walked forward along the corridor while gently pushing her wheelchair.
A little sunshine from the window came in faintly and fell on her body, making her feel very warm.
Looking at the woman sitting in the wheelchair, Afiya's eyes were slightly sore.
In the past month, she had secretly cried countless times.
Sometimes I cry for Lin En, sometimes for Her Royal Highness, and sometimes for herself.
The woman sitting in the wheelchair in front of me looks elegant and beautiful.
But what is strange is that she has long hair as white as snow.
That’s right.
Ever since Yvestite woke up from her slumber, her hair had changed from black to spotless white.
This hair color adds a bit of cold temperament to the taciturn woman.
The aura as sharp as a knife and the arrogant and majestic demeanor of the past have all disappeared.
You can’t even feel the slightest edge.
In Afiya's eyes, in just one month, Her Royal Highness has turned into this extremely strange appearance.
She doesn't seem to be interested in anything.
The only thing I do every day is to sit by the window and look in the direction of the Sauron Mountains without saying a word.
When others talk to her, she won't pay any attention.
Only in the evening of the day, he would suddenly ask her if there was any news about Lin En.
However, what awaited was disappointment again and again.
But now, even emotions like disappointment are almost hard to see on Yvest's face.
This is an extremely scary thing.
Afya even hopes that even if His Highness is angry, even if he is hateful, and even kills people, killing many people, it will be much better than what he is doing now.
However, she could vaguely understand Her Royal Highness's reaction.
Yvesther is like a little girl with nothing. Her father doesn't like her, her brothers and sisters bully her, and everyone around them despises her.
Such a life should be bleak and dull.
But Lin En's appearance completely changed everything.
Whether it is his outstanding assisting ability or his personal charm.
In the eyes of the little girl who originally had nothing, it seemed as if she suddenly had a rare treasure that could illuminate the dim room.
Her brothers and sisters sneered at this, because they were of noble birth and had many toys that little girls had never owned. In their eyes, such toys were easily within their reach. But the little girl held it in her arms very cherishingly and wiped it repeatedly.
The strong possessiveness prevents her from allowing anyone to take it away. However, sometimes, she feels overwhelmed because of excessive love.
After all, this is the first treasure she has ever owned in her life.
Most likely, it is also the only one.
But now, her only precious treasure has been completely destroyed.
The little girl lost everything again and returned to that dilapidated and bleak room.
But what kind of existence will she become when she walks out of the room next time?
Afya doesn’t know.
The fear in her heart made her unwilling to guess this terrible future.
Just as she was pushing the cold and indifferent Yvestle and was lost in thought, a maid suddenly came behind her.
After she whispered a few words, Afia's expression changed.
“I understand, I will take His Highness there now.”
After the maid left, Afia bit her lower lip lightly, thought for a while, and then leaned over to Yvette. ear.
"Your Highness, someone from Holy Oak is here and wants to see you."
Yvester's eyes did not waver.
From beginning to end, he looked out the window calmly and indifferently.
Ten minutes later, Afiya belatedly arrived at the reception room, pushing Yvesther.
The room was already full of people, including Gloria, Morris, and others, as well as many subordinates from Augusta Manor.
Even Duke Tyrus was present.
Looking at Yvest, who was sitting in a wheelchair with an indifferent expression, a trace of regret flashed imperceptibly in his eyes.
She thought that with the help of herself and that boy, she could make some achievements in the King's Selection, but unfortunately, things took a turn for the worse, and everything turned out to be a dream in the end.
But even so, he never offered to terminate the covenant.
“Now that everyone is here, we can start.”
As the person with the highest status here except Yvesther, Duke Tireus cleared his throat. He spoke.
At this moment, in addition to the familiar people, there was also a brown-haired boy standing in the center of the room.
He wore gold-rimmed glasses, neat and straight aristocratic clothing, and an oak-shaped emblem embroidered with gold thread on his collar. He looked sacred and solemn, like the secretary of a big shot.
This is the envoy sent by the Holy Oak Organization to Orne City this time.
This institution was established specifically for the selection of the king. It has a long history and has been passed down from generation to generation by an ancient family to serve the royal family.
They will add or subtract points for everyone through many aspects such as the daily words and deeds of the princes and princesses, their achievements during the king's election, and their prestige among the people.
The final winner is the new emperor of the Saint Laurent Empire.
And Holy Oak sent people here this time to announce Yvester's recently updated King's Choice score.
Hearing what Duke Tyrus said, the young man from the Holy Oak Institution leaned forward slightly and bowed to Yvesther and him respectively.
Then, in full view of everyone, he took out a piece of parchment from his arms.
“Then let me read out the King’s Choice score of Third Highness Yvesté Roland Alexini.”
“In the last round of scoring, Your Highness’s score was - 3576 points, ranking last among the nine princes.”
"The first place is His Highness Felit, with 10,725 points; the second place is His Highness Sirlina, with 8,014 points; the third place is His Highness Mikael, the Sixth Highness, with 7,914 points; the fourth place is."
< br>"After this score update, your serial ranking has not changed, but the points you have have changed."
"Success Successfully resolved the Level 0 Sealed Artifact Riot incident and received a score of 1,500 points. "
" Obtained the support of an elector and received a score of 1,000 points. "
" Obtained Austria for the empire. The city of Erne has been in arrears with taxes for several years and has successfully disrupted the expansion of major churches, earning a score of 500 points. ”
"Your current King's Choice score is -576 points."
As the Holy Oak Messenger's voice slowly fell, everyone in the room fell into silence.
The corners of Tyrus' eyes twitched.
Obviously, he did not expect that Yvest's foundation was actually so bad.
Negative points?
Is this a value that can exist?
Feeling the strange looks from Augusta Manor and Duke Tireus and others, Maurice lowered his head in shame.
In general, Hollyoaks’ scoring mechanism is very fair.
But the things Ivester did in the imperial capital were really notorious.
Even though she had dealt with so many sealed objects that were difficult to control and had fallen asleep countless times, the points she gained in exchange still couldn't fill the hole.
As the saying goes, people are more irritating than others.
The second prince has already scored more than 10,000 points, and even the second-placed eldest princess Sirena has more than 8,000 points, but she is still behind the starting line.
However, the Holy Oak Messenger did not notice the strange atmosphere.
In other words, this is not within his jurisdiction.
"Starting this month, the king selection ceremony will enter a new stage." The young man looked at everyone calmly, "That is, the prelude to the first round of elimination is about to begin."
"Before the end of this month, His Royal Highness must get rid of the negative score as soon as possible, otherwise he will lose the qualification to participate in the next election."
This sentence set off a storm in everyone's heart.
Gloria and Morris looked at each other, their expressions seemed a little panicked.
There are less than two weeks left before the end of this month.
In other words, in the next two weeks, they must assist Her Royal Highness to score more than 576 points in the King's Choice, otherwise they will completely miss the King's Choice!
This, how is this possible? !
For a while, everyone's mood became a little depressed.
But at this moment.
A cold voice that surprised everyone suddenly sounded from the mouth of a white-haired woman sitting in a wheelchair.
Afiya's eyes instantly flashed with a light of hope.
But after hearing what she said clearly, he stood there blankly, a little at a loss.
"No need." Yvesther's expression was still calm and indifferent, as if her heart was filled with despair, "Tell those people in the imperial capital that I want to withdraw from the king's election."
Solon Mountains .
As an invisible space crack slowly opened, a figure wrapped in a blanket fell from the sky to the ground.
"Miss Witch! Can you find a smoother place to land next time?!"
While holding his bare buttocks, the boy complained and got up from the ground.
Then he looked around with some confusion, feeling that the scene in front of him was very unfamiliar.
By the way, where did this come from?
(ps: How can I get some monthly tickets from my brothers? Tsk.)
Asking for monthly tickets every day! ! ! !
