(hell Island)
As the only sacred land for the Asmodian inhabitants, this vast island was not as diht and gentle cliant and spectacular
Unlike his arch-eneht Lord who built his palace on a mountain, the Dark Lord's rassland could be found Around the misty palace stood 18 smaller architectures It seemed only in this way could the Dark Lord’s supreme status be unfolded
As for the grand Dark Temple which existed only to serve the Ase of the island
Currently, 2 people wore golden robes were kneeling outside a palace door Their bodies remained still, and their faces were extraordinarily solemn and respectful
They were the gold-robed cardinal of the Dark Teoldinal for short
The goldinals were the highest people in status in the Dark Teoldinals was 3 They were the left goldinal, the right goldinal, and the pope goldinal respectively It was these 3and thousands of priests in the Dark Temples across the Asmodian Alliance
In the As could escape their eyes and ears Their power could only be higher than the red-robed cardinals froht Temple
The ones ere kneeling on the ground were the left and the right goldinals
As the sound of gentle footsteps came near, the two supreme priests lowered their body even more close to the floor
”Rise, you two” The one who spoke was an As but with a pair of pure black feathered wings on her back, ”Follow me”
”Yes, Your Highness”
Humans had to behave in front of even a lowest Asoldinals followed as they did not even dare to breathe any heavier
As they crossed a yard and toured a set of buildings, the 3 entered the garden of this palace and stopped by a gazebo
”Your Graceful Elder Princess,” The leading Asazebo and bowed to an Asoldinals have arrived”
”Good, you can leave” The Asmodian as addressed as 'Elder Princess' said without turning her body
Froure view of her back, this Ass had a tall and sliht purple robe, she had the lithest and raceful posture on this continent
The 2 goldinals knelt once again and said together, ”Left and right goldinals of the Dark Temple, at your service, Your Graceful Elder Princess”
”Is there a matter of importance for you to see me?”
”Yes, Your Grace We're here to report that the P/A War is over Protoss United Forces have signed the treaty and promised numerous supply”
”So to speak, on”
”Yes, Your Grace, on”
”It is, indeed” The Elder Princess said, ”Therefore, you tell ht only on the Line shattered an Asmodian empire?”
”Forgive us, Your Grace!” The Elder Princess' query paled the goldinals, ”It was an incident We had enough infor on that army”
”Start talking!”
”Yes, Your Grace!” The left goldinal cleared his throat, ”The so-called 'Phantoain victory during this war It was docuion of the Protoss United Forces Its coht from Swabia: Cohen Kheda The army's documented soldier number is 70, 000 slaves In fact, it has 250, 000 Its soldiers are well-trained and equipped PUF even built a large-scale fleet to cooperate its battle plan…”
”Hold it” The Elder Princess interrupted the left goldinal, ”You ht?”
”Yes, Your Grace!” The left goldinal replied proht of Protoss”
”Recently-titled, I see” The Elder Princess said, ”This Cohen Kheda is under 20 years old, isn't he?”
”Indeed, Your Grace…”
”He to command an army of 200, 000”
”Hoise,” The right goldinal was coht be another secret commander”
”You said the war is over” The Elder Princess said eion was defeated, aht?”
Having heard the Elder Princess said that, the 2 goldinals started to sweat like hell Their so-called 'victory' was merely a docued the 9th Legion in the clay city
Hoere they going to tell now that the Elder Princess asked?
Finally, the left goldinal made his mind and said, ”Yes, Your Grace There is no doubt that PUF lost the war However, we don't yet have detailed inforion This is why I cannot tell for certain”
”En, very well” The Elder Princess paused for a second then she said, ”Tell the military headquarters, if the co him to me”
”Yes, Your Grace”
”You're dismissed”
”Your Grace”
After the goldinals had left, the Asmodian Elder Princess turned back
To take a closer look, her face was indeed worthy of a princess Under her beautiful half- eyes Her straight nose and scarlet lips, as well as her crisp oval-shaped face, all set off her graceful and elegant posture
If she laure, every piece of her body held together tofemale
Her beauty will conquer all men who adored prettiness No one could reject a body race
The Asmodian Elder Princess suddenly chuckled to an e breeze blew over a jade, her smile became warm and kind
”Aho, you gotsister” One more Asmodian female showed on the fence SheIn her hands held a delicate face beyond compare A playful and nutty expression was mixed into the Asmodian feant, youthful but seductive She was a hundred ti sister
”You're the As about What does that er sister, ”And what did I tell about eavesdropping?”
The Younger Princess pursed her lips, ”This is not my fault The positions have all been taken Everyone has a job, except !”
”Oh, er Princess' face, ”You had ale if I put you in the hu such childish looks?”
The Younger Princess was a bit annoyed about her elder sister's comment, ”No!”
”Well, don't get upset” The Elder Princess never had a way around her younger sister, ”My sister is the prettiest As a tantrum will make you not so”
”Well, sister, tell ht? You knew they were lying”
”The priests were afraid They didn't have a choice For nificance, I'll let them be Excessive demands are pointless” The Elder Princess said, ”As for this Cohen Kheda, if he is really that good, I will turn him into a Lord of Death”
”A Death Lord…” The Younger Princess said, ”will it be awesome?”
”Sure will Hu as we tempt them with little benefits, they will fall to us” The Elder Princess took her younger sister's hands, ”Satisfied? Now, go back I have other hus to see”
”How come you're always so busy You don't even have tier Princess said, ”Why did father want you to mind these affairs?”
”Human is a peculiar race” The Elder Princess explained, ”They would rather be acceptable to let a female lead them, that's because…”
”Boring… see ya” The Younger Princess's body shook twice and disappeared
The Asmodian Elder Princess shook her head out of helplessness
As for the goldinals that returned the Grand Dark Teriffins and deliver today's news to the AUF headquarters
(As, Asmodian United Forces headquarter)
”Greetings, Your Holiness!” A crowd of generals was standing in front of the headquarter gate to welcome the supervisory chief from the Dark Temple, the one was also one of the three supreoldinal
”The Dark Lord blesses you Greetings, generals” The pope goldinal walked off his carriage and approached slowly to the high-ranks, ”Is Marshal Valerian at the headquarters?”
”Yes, Your Holiness Marshal is expecting you” AUF's Chief of Staff talked and approached the pope with a smile
The Chief of Staff was an admiral His rank did not require that he should welcome the pope personally But as one of the candidates of the next AUF supreer to impress the pope
”Is he? Let's go and see the s to tell him”
”This way, Your Holiness” The Chief of Staff oldinal
”Mr Staff Chief, you've beco stairs and said with a light voice, ”How time flies”
”How a, Your Holiness” The Staff Chief replied with a s in the Dark Teave me the Major rank!”
”You remember that? I was just a temple priest How could I compete with a respectful aded, except for these stairs”
”Don't joke me around, Your Holiness” The Staff Chief answered cautiously, ”Admiral is just an ordinary man I dare not compare myself with a temple personnel”
”Don't get nervous We're the winning party of the war Everyone should cheer up”
The crowd chatted while clirand hall
The grand hall was large enough to hold a thousand visitors Gold thread decorated carpet extended froate all the way to the porch back Fresh floere everywhere as well as colorful ribbons The whole headquarter was full of joy
”Oh, the celebration is about to begin?” The pope looked around, ”Not bad”
”Your coenerals are going to the grand Dark Temple, the ones left want to cheer up the headquarter” The Staff Chief explained, ”You knos of victory is always encouraging”
”A ball?”
”Yes”
”Better help theeneration They're always after the fun of life” The pope seemed to be affected by the joyful atmosphere, he said armth, ”Invite some noble celebrities We can't make the ball too cheap”
”As you wish” The Staff Chief said, ”In that case, I have to warn those brats beforehand in the event they'd do anything inappropriate to the young ladies”
”Oh? Haha…” The pope finally laughed, ”Well, well, don't say that in front of a pope…”
”Oh, you don't know the half of it” The Staff Chief knew the pope was in a good mood, so he spoke less cautiously, ”Marshal Valerian is even worse than me”
”What about him?”
The Staff Chief leaned forward and whispered a feords to the pope
”That old bastard, haha…”
The pope's laughter echoed all the way to Marshal Valerian's chamber
”Presenting His Holiness!” The guard on the door shouted Marshal's door immediately opened
”Greeting, Your Holiness” Marshal Valerian's face was full of radiant with vigor He showed up wearing a suit of neat casual wear, ”I've been expecting you!”
”Greeting, Marshal” The eneral Marshal Valerian was in the equal position as the pope goldinal Thus the pope returned the courtsey, and with upright has fast as I can”
”Thank you, pope” Valerian laughed, ”I have soood wines Come in and drink with me”
”In the ?”
”Just coed the pope into the room
”Don't drag, my robe…”
”I have a youngman: Major Swiss Hepburn!”
”Yes, sir!” Swiss replied loudly, ”Greeting, Your Holiness!”
”This is Major Swiss Hepburn, deputy coence” Valerian told the pope, ”He has excellent capabilities, bright future I sincerely hope that Your Holiness gives this young man a chance to express himself”
”Greeting, Major” After greeting the Major, the pope turned to the Marshal, ”Valerian, I'm just a priest…”
”Cut the crap You’re a powerful pope goldinal, why are you not blushi+ng?” Valerian hinted Swiss to fetch more wine from another roo this young man is not for myself”
”So…” The pope paused for a ht-colored sphere started to swirl around the two in order to keep their conversation within the circle
”You know, the War is over Though I aer the supreme commander of the united force” Valerian seated the pope, ”However, who's able to take over the position in the headquarters as a whole?”
”I've heard about it” The pope nodded, ”Your deputies have all expressed eagerness…”
”They've cohed then he said with anxiety, ”Deputy Co wars However, he was an ad the overall situation is not his strong suit” As for the Staff Chief, he's obsessed with strategy and tactic He'll never excel given his limited mindset”
”Marshal, you'd better not let that Major…” The pope said while hinted the other room
”Can't he?” Valerian said with a s man is well up in politics, knows about the army, has a calm mind Moreover, he'll be around his 40s by the next war He's the best candidate”
”Twenty years! Is it too early to ement like this?” The pope was both amused and annoyed by Valerian, ”I'd even not be a pope after 20 years”
”I know about the changeful world That's why I made such an effort” Valerian said with a lower voice, ”20 years is nothing For the alliance's glory, I could even plan for 40 more years”
”You're always right about people I trust you But it's a huge matter” The pope said, ”It's difficult”
”I've uess his face didin the united force Only such a rank can distract the competitors If he's assassinated someday, that would be a major loss for the alliance”
The pope made yet another bitter s positions seelorious, they were actually on thin ice every moment
”We don't have ood I've exchanged ideas with several emperors, they all supporthim in that exact position without trouble is too difficult for us worldly bureaucrats However, the thing will be totally different with the help of the supreme official fros, great compromises”
”Sigh, what a headache” The pope leaned on the chair, ”You old bastard always give me problems”
”Don't think I don't kno , just make your decision already” Valerian said, ”Do you priests have your candidates already?
”Not bad, marshal We do have 1 or 2 ideal people” The pope calare me like that, we're from 2 different cliques after all”
”It's not hard to decide Yes? No?” Valerian was never an ae trade was about to deal ”You annoying teuys”
”Yes, yes!” The pope said, ”Happy noill do my best to fulfill the deal But you can't opposesubjects”
”No problem!” Valerian said, ”Deal!”
The marshal and the pope were basically 2 most decisive roles in the Asest Asmodian deal within the next 20 years is done
”Get rid of your shi+t spell” Business was done, Valerian restored his nature, ”What's so good to be a petty priest”
The two have been the leader of their respective clique for dozens of years It was rare that they careement today Thus the pope didn't bother put on airs in front of Marshal Valerian He cut out the ic immediately
”Major Swiss!” Valerian shouted toward the neighboring room, ”Where's our wine?”
”Yes, marshal” Salked out with a tray
”Let's have a toast for a good collaboration!” The marshal and the pope drunk up their wine
”Major Swiss!” Cup down, Valerian said stiffly, ”Have you realized the mistakes you made in the HQ?”
”Er… I have no idea, marshal!”
The sudden change made Major Swiss so confused But the pope kneas the first step of their prefer plan: demoralization
