Chapter 19 Wait Another Half Hour
In Fusac, a grand ball is being held in Prince Milon's mansion.
This was not only to welcome Her Majesty the Queen after she returned from the "Winter Hunt", but also to celebrate a great victory that had just ended on the front line a day ago.
——Fusac's third fleet finally eliminated Roen's Jianhai Fleet, successfully broke through the opponent's northwest defense line, and arrived at the city of Constant, an important industrial town.
As long as Conston is conquered, Roen will no longer be able to defend before reaching Ahowa County, and the balance of victory will tilt towards Fusac's side.
Therefore, every guest at this ball had a bright smile on their face, as if they had seen the day when the army marched in and entered Backlund.
Queen Sophia II was obviously also very happy. She kept toasting to the families of the frontline generals, and soon became overwhelmed with alcohol. She was helped into the lounge by a young priest from the Church of the Mother Goddess of the Earth.
Seeing this, most of the nobles chose to turn a blind eye, and only occasionally looked at the ugly Earl Heyrich with sneers and mocking eyes.
In the past, many people could not stand this "unsightly" earl who usurped the territories of other nobles. It was just because of the Queen's face that they could not intervene.
Now that he has fallen out of favor, most people are naturally gloating about his misfortune.
Only the Queen's eldest daughter, Princess Anna, showed an unhappy look... She was not complaining about Count Heyrich, but because this was her father's mansion, and her mother's actions really embarrassed her father's face. Their relationship I'm afraid it will be worse.
Moreover, the priest of the Mother Earth Church was originally the lover of Countess Ksenia of Louth, which made Anna not know how to face her friend's teacher.
She glanced at her father subconsciously, but found that Prince Milon was not to be outdone, dragging a socialite into the lounge, and she couldn't help but sigh weakly.
In the lounge, Sophia II, who was wearing a long blue dress, bowed respectfully to Abner, the priest of the Mother Earth Church, as soon as she entered.
If Abner hadn't stopped her, she would have even kneeled on the ground and kissed the floor.
The "Death" path is indeed a big pit... Abner sneered, but with a thought on the surface, while sealing the room with his spirituality, Klein, who became "Gehrman Sparrow", was "Alvin's Palace" was released.
Hermann nodded to Abner first, and then looked at the Queen with a "cold" gaze. Then his temples turned from black to red, and his whole body transformed into the Queen's appearance.
At this time, Sophia II had already stood up at Abner's signal. She looked at Gehrman who had turned into herself, pointed at the position of his chest and said: "It should be a little fuller here."
"..." Klein was speechless, but he still maintained his "Gehrman" persona, and squeezed harder to make it bigger.
After doing this, he couldn't help but secretly complained: "Fortunately, I was promoted to 'ancient scholar', otherwise I really wouldn't be able to do it... Is this really useful in consolidating human nature?"
Sophia II circled around him, then nodded with satisfaction, then walked to the closet in the lounge, took out a spare dress and handed it to Klein, smiling and saying: "Here you go, put it on. "
Klein took the dress and frowned, glanced at Abner, then looked at Sophia, and asked with the queen's usual arrogant tone: "Didn't you give me the one you are wearing now?"
"Generally speaking, it is normal to change into new clothes after entering the rest room and then going out." The queen winked and said with a smile.
It's normal to change into new clothes... Klein was a little confused at first, but then he realized it. After cursing inwardly, "What a joke," he picked up the dress and the underwear that Sophia found again, and entered the room. between.
"The great 'Death Archon', can he really play me without revealing any flaws?" Sophia II asked Abner with some worry.
"Don't worry, he is a very dedicated and good actor..." Abner responded with a smile, then glanced at Sophia, who was dressed in a dress, shook his head and said, "You should also change into casual clothes, for the next few days of 'training' , if you wear what you are wearing now, I'm afraid something more terrible will happen to you."
"Yes..." Sophia II responded solemnly, and then put on a simple women's formal dress.
Since this dress became popular due to a certain "movie", it has become a standard outfit for professional women.
Not long after Sophia had changed, Klein also came out of the cubicle. He was wearing a black evening gown, with most of his snow-white shoulders exposed. His profile was heroic and domineering, and his facial features were profound and delicate.
Generally speaking, Her Majesty the Queen in Hermann's version is a bit better in terms of "cold majesty".
"It's not bad...but the expression should be softer at the dance..." Sophia II gave her own advice.
Although Klein felt uncomfortable, he still accepted the other party's suggestion out of "dedication" and showed a rather intoxicating smile.
"Very good!" The Queen praised, then took off a ring from her finger and handed it to Klein. "This ring is called 'Fiery Determination'. It can use most of the abilities of the 'Reaper' path. A side effect is always being thirsty and needing to drink more water.
"After I was promoted to the 'Immortal', my original 'Reaper' ability has changed a lot, so I usually rely on it when I need to take action."
Another side effect is "thirst", so I'm afraid I'll have to go to the bathroom more often in the future... Klein laughed at himself a few times and then took the ring and put it on his finger.
Then, Sophia II took out another tube of blood and handed it to "Gehrman" who looked exactly like her: "This is my blood. Use it when you need to verify your bloodline."
In this way, after all the things were handed over, Sophia II bowed to Abner and then entered the "Alvin Palace". Abner and Klein were suddenly the only ones left in the lounge.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds before Klein took the initiative and asked: "What would you do if I didn't agree to play the queen?"
"Of course I asked Daphne to come... By the way, she is the vice-president of the Secret Order and an 'ancient scholar'. You should have met her before during the battle for the sea monster on Sonia Island. Abner replied with a smile.
That's right...among your "friends" is the "ancient scholar"... Klein suddenly understood, frowned and asked: "I think it would be more suitable for her to play the 'Queen', right? Why do you have to find me?" "
"Daphne is not as skilled in acting as you... Moreover, without the protection of the 'Origin Castle', she is likely to be sensed by the angels to be wrong." Abner explained "seriously".
"I see..." Klein nodded thoughtfully, then looked in the direction of the door, and continued, "I've found some form, let's go out now."
Abner shook his head. He raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, and said with certainty: "It's too fast...wait another half hour."
