Chapter 561 Undercurrent
"Mother... Mother?"
Jia Luoli seemed to have some kind of detection magic installed on her body, and her attention was still on the battle situation in front of her just now.
As a result, it suddenly raised its head and looked around like a cat hearing a strange sound.
At this moment, Jialuoli's sense of hearing surpassed the limit of human beings, and the subtle voices of discussions outside the door played back in her ears.
When Jialuoli was about to do something, there was already the sound of turning the door lock of the reception room.
Her mother has the key here!
Mrs. Caesar pushed open the door of the reception room. In her imagination, Jialuoli should have invited Joshua to a cozy afternoon tea.
But it's a pity... This is indeed an afternoon tea, tea and snacks are placed next to the table, but the content has changed from chatting to magic net games.
"Jia Luoli, are you holding some kind of ceremony?"
As soon as Mrs. Caesar entered the reception room, she looked at the scene in front of her. The tables in the reception room were spliced together, and the five people sat together facing each other. In front of her was a magic web interface that was playing something.
This doesn't look like a parliament by any means.
"Mother, we are..."
When Jia Luoli is trying to explain what she has done, her hero is ambushed by the enemy, and for a moment she has no time to answer her mother.
The atmosphere in the air was a bit awkward for a while, but Mrs. Caesar quickly judged that the people sitting on both sides were not "ordinary friends".
The new king of the Frost Kingdom that Mrs. Caesar accidentally caught a glimpse of was enough for her to treat this gathering cautiously.
The battle didn't last long, it ended in just 22 minutes, and it was still Qiao Xiu's victory that ended in the end.
"It's an honor to participate in this gathering." After the battle, Sheil stood up from his seat immediately and said. "I must leave now."
"Then today's test is over."
Qiao Xiu waved his hand to close the magic web interface in front of him, and looked at the new king of the Frost Kingdom beside him.
"Be careful on your way back."
"I'll get rid of those traitors, and I'm looking forward to your Roman Holiday."
Xie Er's indifferent expression was rarely replaced by a smile. After she left this sentence, she nodded slightly to Mrs. Caesar and chose to leave here.
Seeing Sheil leave, Heluolia immediately stood up from her seat, then suddenly walked up to Joshua, bent down slightly, and put her lips next to Joshua's ear.
"The experience of this game makes me very happy, and the Inquisition has left the holy city, but the threat they bring is far from over."
Qiao Xiu's body subconsciously backed up a bit, but Heluolia had already finished speaking, and left here with Misai, and went to catch up with Sheil who was gone.
And Qiao Xiu could only bear the sight from all directions in the room.
"May I explain?" Joshua said in a low voice.
………………
In the afternoon, the awards ceremony in the Crystal Palace officially came to an end, and Qiao Xiu chose to drive his eldest sister back to the Demon Realm in a magic car.
Ciri was unable to go with Joshua because he was taken to the Sage's Tower for assessment by the man in purple, and Tailin wanted to see the growth of the World Tree.
So only Joshua and Cecily were left in the magic car.
"Currently, there is a country of steel that may establish diplomatic relations with the Demon Realm. I have some confidence in the country of frost, but the internal chaos of that country may be chaotic for a while."
While turning the steering wheel, Joshua explained to Cecily the current relationship between countries in the world and the Demon Realm.
"The Mrs. Caesar introduced me to the ambassador of the country near the sea, and they also have the intention of communicating with the devil world." Cecily added a country that may establish a relationship "Although I have said this sentence once , but this time I have to repeat, Joshua, you have done what you promised to your father before."
"Countries are still adopting a tentative attitude. This is just the beginning." Qiao Xiu tried his best to focus on national affairs, but Cecily seemed to have seen through Qiao Xiu's mind.
"Is there anyone you like in that waiting room before?" Cecily asked suddenly.
This problem made Qiao Xiu almost step on the accelerator as a brake.
"Who is it?" Cecilie caught the subtle change in the expression on Joshua's face, and immediately confirmed that the prophet's information and her own guess were correct, "The girl called the Flower of Faluosi, or the Kingdom of Frost?" The new king? Is it impossible to be the bishop of the Holy Kingdom?"
Cecily asked a very gossip question in a serious tone, but judging from the serious expression on her face, this elder sister was not asking about her brother's relationship with a "gossip" mentality, but with The stance of racial perpetuation raises questions, or rather...questions.
"It's the Miss Spellcaster sitting next to the Flower of Faluoxi. Her name is Shirley... She is currently an apprentice of the Purple Clothes." Joshua finally chose to tell the whole story, "The place where I first met her was the Demon Realm. Being together will never be boring.”
"You mentioned her to me." Cecilie put her hand on her chin and thought for a while, then turned her head to look into Joshua's eyes and asked, "How far has your relationship developed?"
"Uh... Is it just a matter of getting married?" Joshua finally gave Cecily the answer.
"Father will not allow this marriage."
Cecily clenched her hands tightly, but she loosened slightly as if she had figured out something
"Our family's rules are like this, so Joshua waited for a while."
"wait for some time?"
"I will become the ruler of the Demon Realm, just like what was agreed before."
Cecily stared into Joshua's eyes and said in a very serious tone.
"I...almost forgot."
Qiao Xiu suddenly remembered that a year and a half ago, the ruler of the demon world was ready to give up the throne to his heir.
"I'll ask Duke Bones to support you." Joshua apologized to his brother in his heart.
The Grand Duke of Blood has always supported the peace talks with humans, and nearly two-thirds of the power in the demon world fell to his eldest sister.
"But I still hope it can be resolved peacefully." Joshua glanced at Cecily's expression, the second princess was ready to go to the battlefield.
In this battle for royal power, Cecily's most powerful competitor is Joshua's elder brother.
The general guarding the border of the demon world would never choose to make peace with humans.
So what Joshua can do now is to try his best to ensure that Cecily wins the battle for royal power.
