Chapter 736 (2/2)

Most of Byrne's power and prestige in the Empire came from the full support of the Principality of BOI; Therefore, it is more urgent to win over Sarika, a potential ally, than to have a good relationship with Archduke Varna.

The other party ”takes the initiative” to send it to the door, which is obviously more clear than himself; Moreover, since she was willing to help, it was obvious that she had no reason to refuse.

”Since you are willing, we have no opinion.”

With a formulaic smile, Loren stretched out the right hand of friendship to the girl: ”it's not only me, but also the honor of Byrne to get your help!”

”Help you, who said it was to help you?”

Sally card suddenly snorted and said reluctantly, ”if it weren't for my lovely ain Rand on your side, the devil would pay attention to you!”

”Then again, you've never been moved to keep such a little cute around all day? I know wizards are men, but... No one stipulates that they must be men and men... Right?”

”Alas?” the black haired wizard's expression froze.

For what?

”Of course, if you want to marry me... It's not that you can't think about it.” Sally Ka grinned at the corners of her mouth and held Lauren's right hand:

”At that time, ain will be my angel. How about you be my lover... Sneaky or aboveboard. Suit yourself. No one dares to say anything anyway!”

”...” Loren Turin.

”Cough, cough, cough! Everybody... It's almost time.”

On one side, Ike suddenly coughed very hard, which finally broke the awkward atmosphere: ”if there is no problem, please start preparing.”

”The latest batch of baggage and reserve troops will arrive in Qianzhang city in three days, which is also the time for us to start - before that, the Legion can complete some basic training and tactical cooperation... If everything goes well.”

Sarika shrugged, took the saber back from Eckert's hand, turned and left.

Angert, with an odd expression, looked back and forth at Loren and Sarika, as if he suddenly thought of something, but he chose to shut up and leave the city wall in dismay under Ike's silent gaze.

Only the count of fury castle was left, still standing behind Loren and never leaving.

”What's up?”

Lauren asked without looking back.

”The information of red blood castle was sent by your servant, your excellency Joad, the head of the United Chamber of Commerce.” Eckert nodded solemnly:

”According to the arrangement before you left, the three earls of red blood castle, storm castle and rainbow bridge are Regents in the name of the round table Parliament - legally speaking, they are all your vassals, and their status and power should be the same.”

”But now the situation is... Not so.” Eckert hesitated and seemed to ponder his words: ”the round table Parliament of equal co governance is about to become the round table Parliament of Charlotte Turin.”

”Maybe it was acquiescence, maybe it happened for a reason, but the other two earls never seemed to refute her claims, and even intentionally or unintentionally made her become the core of Parliament.”

Lauren glanced at Eckert in surprise: ”do you think there's a problem?”

”No, I absolutely believe that Countess Charlotte will not betray you, but it will cause some confusion.” the count of fury shook his head: ”when the two turins have the same reputation, who should Bain's knights and people trust?”

”If this is just some small trouble that can be solved, but if some 'interested people' take advantage of this situation - when a group of people want to support Charlotte, does she resist you... Or kill all the people who support her?”

Loren's face froze and he stopped talking.

”It's just a proposal, Duke...” Eckert said again:

”But I really think it's time for you to consider how to solve the ownership problem of 'red blood Castle'.”
