Chapter 2363 Gap

After tea, a waiter will pick up the leftovers.

Elder Mai Sonoda held the saucer with his left hand, picked up the tea cup with his right hand, and leisurely sipped the after-dinner black tea.

Beibei, who was sitting next to her, also followed suit, like a little lady.

It's just that I always feel a little awkward. Will this kind of ladylike education really kill Beibei's happy nature?

I do think that an eleven or twelve-year-old girl like her should spend a lot of time playing. After all, playing is a child's talent.

But as an outsider, even if there is a lot that I don’t understand, it is not convenient for me to say it directly to my face, as I will be disliked by others.

After tasting the tea for a while, Elder Mai Sonoda put the tea cup on the table, poured another cup for himself, and said casually: "Xiao Yi, let me ask you, did His Majesty ask you to be alone? The idea of ​​building a nation?”

My heart trembled, my fingers twitched twice, and the black tea in the cup seemed to sense my emotions, trembling, surging, and splashing a few drops of water.

During the silence, my heart surged, and I kept thinking about how to answer Elder Mai Sonoda's seemingly casual question.

Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is, why would she ask such a question?

Was it under the command of the Fairy Queen? Or did she think of it herself?

Did she ask me if there was anything against my purpose in this question? Or does she just want to ask for my opinion?

My mood changed several times, and my expression was as exciting as a face-changing scene in Sichuan Opera. Beibei, who was watching the genuine tea, looked surprised.

"I'm just asking casually." Elder Mai Sonoda put down the teapot, drooped his eyelids, and said calmly: "You don't have to worry too much. Besides, you should know very well that if I really want to do something bad to you, I won't I invite you here to drink tea and enjoy the flowers. The only people who can be invited here to drink tea are those who have been tied to my chariot."

She raised the tea cup, took another sip, and said with a smile: "Don't look at me with that look. I didn't deliberately pull you into the camp. This is your own choice."

I frowned, looking confused: "My choice?"

"From the moment you and His Majesty Anastas showed love for each other, you have been bound to His Majesty's chariot." She paused and then said, "Just like me."

Sighing lightly, she continued: "The difference is that you took the initiative to board the chariot, but I was entrusted by others and had to board her chariot."

I remembered that Elder Mai Sonoda once said that she was entrusted by Anasta's parents and had to accept the appointment at the critical moment to take up the position of elder. With this position, she could help Anasta secure the throne of the Elf Queen.

It is not an exaggeration to say that she was forced to be tied to Anasta's chariot.

After pondering for a moment, I nodded and said, "The Queen's grandma did make similar suggestions to me."

"Did you agree?"

"How is it possible?" I smiled bitterly and shook my head: "Is it easy to build a country?"

"So, you refused?"

"No," I shook my head again and said, "It's just that I'm still considering it for the time being. But, Mr. Elder, how did you know about this?"

"I don't know," Elder Mai Sonoda denied, "I just have a vague feeling that Her Majesty the Fairy Queen will not ignore the power in your hands."

"The power I hold in my hands? You mean. The Destroyer Legion?"

"Yes." She nodded: "Your Majesty has some taboos about this power, but it is also because you are the owner of this power that you have remained silent. Recently, some nobles have begun to make moves. During the time you left Moonlight City, you kept saying In the form of a memorial, I suggest to Your Majesty that we seize your power and your army."

"Steal my army?" I sneered: "They are really ignorant and fearless. They know nothing about the Destroyer Legion and they are just fanning the flames in secret. Do they really think that after taking my power, the Destroyer Legion will listen to their orders?"

Elder Mai Sonoda was also sneering, but obviously, the target of the sneer was not me, but those ignorant and fearless idiots.

"Speaking of which, the Destroyer Legion is not my army, but a gift given to me to express my sincerity. Its real owner is the Lord of the Dragon Clan, which is an existence of the same level as the Lord of the Forbidden Land. But obviously, The current Lord of the Dragon Clan is far more powerful than the Lord of the Forbidden Land."

"Is it the monster that brought Akahavi to the brink of death with one strike?" Elder Mai Sonoda asked.

"Yes, but it is not a monster. It has a name, and its intelligence is far superior to humans." I explained: "Also, you said that one blow could bring Akahavi to the brink of death. This is actually not true. Then The so-called blow is just a mouthful of spit that the Lord of the Forbidden Land spits hard when he is angry."

Elder Sonoda Mai frowned, pondered for a moment, put down the tea cup, and asked: "Did the Lord of the Forbidden Land say these words to you?"

"That's about it."

I said vaguely.

I made up the word "spit", but based on what Antuen said, the breath of energy that destroyed Akahavi's group was really not an attack. It was just a symbolic breath. Well, that's about it. I believe that even if Antoun is brought to task, he won't care about these details.

Elder Mai Sonoda fell silent again.

I continued the topic just now: "Even if I give up control of the Destroyer Legion, they will not take orders from anyone else, because besides me, they also have the Lord of the Dragon Clan to be loyal to, unless the Lord of the Dragon Clan also gives up their loyalty to me. Although the Lord of the Dragon Clan is not interested in the expulsors, it is obvious that it is much better to have a group of brave and fearless cannon fodder under his hands than to directly ask his own people to rush upward. Therefore, The Lord of the Dragon Clan will definitely not give up the Destroyer Legion, so the question is, why do those nobles convince the Lord of the Dragon Clan? Not to mention that they have never even seen that person, even if they have seen him, what can they do? ? Put pressure on the Lord of the Dragon Clan like you did on the Queen’s grandmother?”

"Huh huh huh" I sneered three times and said, "With all due respect, putting pressure on the Lord of the Dragon Clan is tantamount to self-destruction."

"You can do some good, can't you?" Elder Sonoda Mai said coldly.

I nodded: "Indeed, if they can provide benefits that satisfy the Dragon Lord, the other party will indeed agree to their request, but the question is, can they provide it?"

Seeing that Elder Mai Sonoda was deep in thought again, I continued to sneer: "I am Master Dewey's adopted son, and I can be regarded as the future heir of Master Dewey's assets. He has been running a business empire for decades, and he has collected treasures and secret treasures. , countless, you can understand what I mean, even if I add those nobles together, I may not be able to get what I can."
