Chapter 504 Interference 3
When Grand Duke Cabret saw the red-haired lady for the first time, he was first surprised by her appearance. His wife Helen, known as the Pearl of Corner Bay, is already the most beautiful woman he has ever seen in his life. However, this lady named Mariana is not inferior to Helen in appearance, and even surpasses her in temperament. .
When he looked at this lady, not only did he not feel the evasive and slightly cowardly look in the eyes of ordinary people when they meet the ruler of a country, but he felt that he was to some extent. Be overwhelmed by the power in the other person's eyes.
Yes, this lady’s eyes contain some kind of power that can directly affect the hearts of others. When people describe a person’s eyes as bright and lively, they often use words such as “glare eyes”. But Ms. Mariana's pupils were as red as fire. The moment Duke Cabret looked at those eyes, things like flames, magma, and lightning flashed in his mind.
She must be a woman with a firm heart and a strong will, the Grand Duke commented in his heart.
"Your Majesty, this is my mentor. She just returned to Corner Bay not long ago."
The Grand Duchess Helen introduced her husband, showing great respect for the red-haired lady.
"Your Majesty Cabre, I am very honored to meet you. Please forgive me for not knowing the rules in the palace."
Mariana nodded slightly to the Grand Duke, which was regarded as a salute.
Cabrai quickly said: "In any case, since you are Helen's mentor, you are naturally my elder. Naturally, you don't have to abide by those red tapes. Please sit down quickly."
Apart from being his wife's mentor, he is also the key person to save Eaton from the crisis, so naturally he should be respected.
He asked eagerly: "No matter how many polite words you say, it won't help. So, Ms. Mariana, let's make the story short and get to the point. I believe you also know the current crisis of Eaton. What do you have? Can the method help us? "
Mariana first glanced at her student Helen and said slowly:
"Magic?"
The Grand Duke of Cabret and his wife Helen, who was a spellcaster, were all shocked.
The Grand Duchess asked in a low voice: "Teacher Mariana, what do you mean...use our ability to sneak into the enemy camp quietly and assassinate the other party's senior figures? This is a feasible method, but my My husband doesn't allow me to do this, he's afraid of me..."
Are you going to let your mentor take personal risk for you?
“No!” Mariana denied without hesitation.
"What I mean is defeating the Skitarii with magic on the frontal battlefield."
The Grand Duke's hands trembled, "This, this, this, this..."
He couldn't say a complete sentence. The Grand Duke of Cabre is the ruler of the Principality of Eton. His family has been a top noble for hundreds of years.
And what is magic? For thousands of years, it has been considered by the people as an unnatural, evil and filthy force that goes against the teachings of the gods and should not exist in the world.
Even if the Grand Duke married a spell caster as his wife and loved the spell caster’s wife from the beginning to the end, from the inside out, in the Grand Duke’s view, this was a manifestation of the great power of love. In his heart , love is inherently irrational and indescribable, and is something more mysterious and powerful than magic. In this young grand duke's somewhat naive view of love, since you love someone, you must accept all of her and tolerate the other person's shortcomings, even if the other person is a legendary witch who violates the laws of nature.
Because of his long relationship with his wife, he had a tolerant and sympathetic attitude towards the spell casters. Gradually, he also learned that not all spell casters were evil. There were many good people among them, and they also had the same characteristics as ordinary people. Happy, joyful, painful, sad and other precious emotions.
But even so, let the Grand Duke accept magic at once, let him regard magic as a normal thing, regard magic as a serious method, and regard magic as a method that does not violate the way of knights. Force was put on the table and used openly to defeat the enemy, but he still couldn't change it immediately.
And what about the Grand Duchess Helen? She grew up in a noble family. She was pampered and pampered. She grew up carefree. She had been a good girl since she was a child. After she embarked on the journey of being a spell caster by chance, magic brought her something new. The sense of excitement is a sense of excitement, or a forbidden pleasure. She learns and studies magic because magic gives her a unique feeling that is different from those toys that can be obtained at will. As a person in the eyes of the world She was obsessed with the contrast between a weak woman who could control such powerful power. The spell caster was just one of Helen's labels, rather than some one-to-one exclusive binding.
Besides, what she had learned from Mariana since she was a child was to hide, hide, and hide again. The mentor at that time reminded her over and over again that magic must never be shown to the world, and it must never be seen in public. Performed in public, when others find out that you are a witch, you will face a very terrible fate, which makes Helen subconsciously form an inherent thought - [Magic] and [Place with People] are mutually exclusive. , when there are other people present, unless they are people who know the situation well - such as your husband and schoolmates who are also spell casters, or enemies who do not recognize you and are confident that you can clean them up, do not use magic.
However, the most important thing is that with Helen's current understanding of magic, she is still unable to understand the extent to which this power can affect a large-scale battle. Her best guess was to assassinate important figures, steal important intelligence, or use unnatural means to cause the enemy generals to misjudge.
For various reasons, the Grand Duchess was also shocked when she heard her mentor threaten to use magic to defeat an army on the frontal battlefield.
Marianna saw the shock of the Grand Duke and his wife, and she smiled slightly. This smile even made her image in the heart of Grand Duke Cabret fit the image of the evil witch in public perception.
Of course, this was just a moment, and the red-haired lady immediately returned to the image of a solemn and respectful mentor.
She opened her red lips and said slowly and softly:
“I know that for a long time, there has been a deep-rooted prejudice against magic and us as spellcasters in the world. It’s really hard for you to accept it all of a sudden, but you’ve been with this lovely student of mine for so long, so…”
"Tell me, Eteote, what kind of person do you think your wife is?"
I thought I wouldn't have time to write it today, but I didn't expect it to be completed.
