Chapter 447 Looking for Trouble?
"Hahahahaha!!"
Even after returning to the castle, Ling Nu still held her belly and laughed non-stop. Shizuka next to her couldn't help laughing. Only Majiko was a little better - mainly because she was more reserved and didn't dare to anger Duanmu Huai.
After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Duanmu Huai's face was not very good.
"Haven't you laughed enough?"
"After all, this is too interesting. That demon actually thought you were the demon king...hahaha..."
Speaking of this, Ling Nu couldn't help but clench her fist and hit the wall. Shizuka next to her turned her head away, her shoulders shaking constantly.
Looking at their looks, Duanmu Huai could only roll his eyes helplessly.
Of course, Duanmu Huai didn't say this kind of thing. In fact, Ling Nu saw it herself. She is now serving Duanmu Huai as a ninja. Basically, she is lurking around and monitoring the safety around Duanmu Huai at any time, so that she can remind Duanmu Huai when something unexpected happens.
In fact, this is also normal. Lingnu is a genius ninja, but not a genius warrior. It is no problem for her to assassinate and lurk to collect intelligence, but it is difficult for her to face the enemy head-on. So when Duanmu Huai was looking for the demon, Lingnu was lurking beside him, so she watched the whole process.
Duanmu Huai would not say much, but Lingnu did not have to worry about it. She went back and told Shizuka and Magik about this matter...
To be honest, being misunderstood as a demon king by a demon is quite ridiculous to ordinary people, not to mention that Shizuka and Magik also participated in the war of the demon invasion of Seth with Duanmu Huai, and then compared it - that's even more ridiculous.
From a certain perspective, Duanmu Huai is indeed more fierce than a demon. As for the demon king... they have never seen it, but it doesn't seem strange that someone fiercer than a demon is called a demon king.
Duanmu Huai had no good way to deal with this, so he could only let them laugh. He was not the kind of person who insisted that his subordinates had a stern face, and he quite admired the character of the bell girl. To be honest, the only people around him who were not respectful to him were Bambi and the bell girl. Others were more or less polite. Some of them were out of habit, and on the other hand, Duanmu Huai looked fierce and serious after all, and when he laughed, he looked like a chainsaw killer, so no one dared to joke with him.
Bambi felt more like a sister to Duanmu Huai, and the bell girl was like a bad friend. Although it was a bit unpleasant, there was no harm in being bad.
Especially for Duanmu Huai, this kind of teasing was still rare.
After killing the demon king Nobunaga, Duanmu Huai's mission was over, and the demon army also dispersed and disappeared. At present, O.J only had the Asakura family, the Uesugi family and the Hojo family - from the Warring States heroes to the Three Kingdoms.
Of course, the reconstruction of O.J was difficult, but this was not the scope of Duanmu Huai's concern.
"Dear, you are back!!!"
However, just when Duanmu Huai and others returned to the castle, they heard a scream, and then saw Liya running over and throwing herself into Duanmu Huai's arms.
"Are you okay?"
"What can happen to me?"
"That's good."
Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Liya nodded happily, then turned her head and looked at her servants.
"I already know the situation of O.J. You should send representatives to O.J immediately and tell them that Lisas is willing to help them rebuild, but the condition is that O.J. must become a vassal of Lisas."
When giving the order, Liya did not look like she was in love in front of Duanmu Huai at all. Instead, she looked like a qualified queen, strong and domineering. You should know that Asakura, Kamiyama and Hojo are also famous families in O.J., but in Liya's eyes, they seem to be just that.
This is also normal. The US president will not care about the mood of the African tribal chief.
“是。”
侍从点了点头,领命离开了,而莉娅这才又一次恢复了恋爱脑的模样,笑嘻嘻的再次一头扑到了端木槐怀里。
“亲爱的,你和AL教到底怎么了?人家都开始通缉你了!”
“通缉我?”
听到莉娅的说话,端木槐愣了一下。
这什么意思?老子不去找他们的麻烦,他们居然敢主动找我的麻烦?
哦?这样吗?不但不逃走,居然还直接对着我走过来吗?
想要被揍是吧?
还好莉娅也没有做谜语人的意思,拉着端木槐来到自己的房间坐下,然后把情况给端木槐说了一遍。
简单来说,就是几天之前,端木槐还在O.J的时候,AL教那边忽然发出号召,声称审判庭是异教,要将其净化,同时要逮捕身为审判庭审判官的端木槐,并且要求各国配合。
Leah was naturally very unhappy about this, and King Gandhi of Seth was not too happy either. After all, Duanmu Huai was a hero who saved the two countries, and now AL Church wanted them to help catch people, which was simply unreasonable. Although AL Church did have a great influence among the people, Leah and King Gandhi were not the kind of weak kings. In a word, I just won't help you, what can you do to me?
In other aspects, AL Church can still mobilize civilian forces, but the problem is that the citizens of Seth and Lisas, and even the citizens of the Free City Alliance, have been saved by Duanmu Huai, so they are not very concerned about the call of AL Church.
On the contrary, the Kingdom of Herman was very concerned and seemed to be gearing up to be the vanguard and wanted to send troops to destroy Duanmu Huai and the Tribunal.
"So, dear, what do you think? Why don't Seth and I join forces to kill Herman?"
Speaking of Herman, Leah also gritted her teeth - less than a year had passed since the feud between Lisas and Herman, and the memory was very vivid, so it would be great to take the opportunity to take revenge.
In fact, among the three countries in the current continent, Seth and Lisas all have a grudge against Herman. After the fall of the Holy Demon Order, Herman first created the first great kingdom unified by mankind. But later, due to various corruption and oppression, domestic unrest broke out. In the end, Lisas' ancestors directly raised a rebel flag and became the king of the mountain. They abruptly broke away from Herman and established Lisas.
The magicians of Seth were dissatisfied with Herman's high-pressure policies, so they eventually migrated to Seth and built a country for magicians.
Because of this, Herman hated Lisas and Seth, and the latter two couldn't stand Herman even more. The two sides have too many old and new grudges, and they don't mind fighting again.
Especially for Queen Leia of Lisas, if she could directly go to war with Herman and fight to the opponent's royal city, then she would be able to get rid of the bad breath that Herman's Prince Barton had when he raided Lisas.
Leah is very vindictive.
"I see, but why does the AL religion suddenly want to trouble me?"
"Leah is not sure about this either. I heard it seems to be related to the election of the King of France."
“Dharma King Election??”
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but be startled. He had heard from Zhi Jinxiang that the previous Dharma King of the AL sect had passed away not long ago, but he didn't expect that this matter was actually related to him... Go ahead and elect your successor. Your Majesty, what are you doing to my court? How dare you come to trouble me? You're tired of living, aren't you?
At the same time, in the palace of Langgu, the capital of Herman, two people were having a secret meeting.
"Thank you for your help this time, Prime Minister Stisser."
The rich middle-aged man with blond hair wearing a white holy robe was smiling and looking at the very gentle man wearing glasses in front of him. The latter is the prime minister of the Kingdom of Herman and the current actual ruler of this country - Prime Minister Stisser.
"You're welcome, Bishop Oz."
Facing the rich priest's thanks in front of him, Prime Minister Stisse nodded slightly.
"We also have a sworn blood feud with the Inquisition. Their inquisitor killed the prince of the Kingdom of Herman. We must respond to this cruel behavior."
"Hehehe..."
Hearing Prime Minister Stisser's answer, Bishop Oz showed a smile, but his eyes were hazy.
In fact, the expulsion and arrest of Duanmu Huai was initiated by Bishop Oz.
Duanmu Huai couldn't understand why the AL Cult was targeting him, but in fact, the AL Cult had been paying attention to Duanmu Huai since a long time ago.
On the surface, AL religion is a religion that worships the goddess Alice and aims to protect mankind. But in fact, they also have a very important task in this, and that is to eliminate or seal all existences that disrupt the balance.
As for the AL Cult, Duanmu Huai, who successively killed the former Demon King Ji Er and several demons, and even the Tribunal behind him, have obviously affected the balance of power in this continent, so similar suggestions have long been made. However, the Dharma King who was alive at the time refused this request.
But now, the old Dharma King passed away and when it was time to choose a new Dharma King, Duanmu Huai was chosen by AL again.
The reason is actually very simple.
One of the conditions for the election of the Dharma King is to determine how likely each successor is to become the Dharma King. The conditions that affect these probabilities are doing good deeds, serving humanity, and serving the AL religion. Of course, the requirement of sealing things that affect the balance is also indispensable.
Archbishop Oz is one of the candidates qualified by the AL Church to be elected as the next Dharma King, and he has therefore set his sights on Duanmu Huai. Within the AL Church, Duanmu Huai has long been identified as the most dangerous person who disrupts the balance on the continent. If it can be captured or sealed, Bishop Oz's score will definitely rise. In this way, it will be a certainty that he will become the next French King!
However, Bishop Oz also knew very well that Duanmuhuai and the Tribunal had considerable influence within Lisas and Seth, so he found Herman.
As for what Prime Minister Stisser said about having a grudge against Duanmuhuai, Archbishop Oz simply turned a deaf ear. He was also very familiar with the political struggles within the Kingdom of Herman. If Duanmuhuai hadn't killed Prince Barton in Lisas, the princess would have been dead. I am afraid that the faction has no way to win yet. From this point of view, it was too late for Prime Minister Stisser to throw a banquet for Duanmu Huai, so how could he have any deep hatred against him?
But Bishop Oz also gave his own terms of exchange. If Herman is willing to help, then the AL Church will also assist Herman in stabilizing the domestic order. After all, after the death of Prince Barton, Princess Sheila assumed the throne and became Herman. Mann's new emperor, but in fact she is just a puppet emperor, and all power is controlled by Prime Minister Stisser.
Of course, this situation naturally caused a lot of opposition and protests, and even rebellions, within Hermann.
If the AL coach can come forward, it will be very helpful for Herman to stabilize his heart.
And Prime Minister Stice also wanted to do a favor for Bishop Oz, so that when he became the King of France in the future, he could be closer to the AL Church.
So the two sides hit it off and reached an alliance.
"I heard that Seth and Lisas are now planning to form an alliance to fight against Herman. From this point of view, are you not worried?"
"Of course not."
Hearing Bishop Oz's words, Prime Minister Stice sneered.
"Lisas is a poor and weak country, and Seth has just recovered from the invasion of the demons. It is not worth mentioning at all. If they dare to stand in front of my Herman army, they will be destroyed together!"
At this point, Stice also raised his glass.
"By then, it will be the day when I, Herman, will unify the world again!"
