Chapter 645 King and Princess
Chapter 646
Hearing Mia's counterattack, Modray instantly became angry.
The dark red lines on his armor flashed, and red thunder appeared around him, as if he was about to go berserk.
Seeing this, Mia was not panicked at all. His right hand slowly grasped the hilt of the rapier at his waist, and made a counterattack posture.
Just when the two sides were on the verge of a fight.
A cold and majestic female voice came from a distance, stopping the two people who were about to fight.
"What are you two doing! This is the palace. If you want to fight, go to the martial arts arena!"
Hearing this scolding, Modray snorted and turned away directly.
And Mia seemed both surprised and frightened, looking in the direction of the voice.
Duan Ming also looked for the voice and followed his sight.
I saw a blonde woman in a white dress, walking slowly surrounded by many knights.
The person who came was the princess of the Kingdom of Keria, Aliya, whom Duan Ming had seen in the portrait before.
Seeing Aliya coming, Mia hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Your Highness!"
Aliya nodded, signaled to the other party to encourage her, and then turned to look at Duan Ming.
At this time, Duan Ming was also observing the other party.
The moment their eyes met, Duan Ming did not feel the perseverance and sadness that belonged to the girl as in the previous portrait, but felt the indifference and nobility of the king.
In just a moment, Duan Ming understood.
The princess of the kingdom in front of him was probably no longer bound by continuing to be a princess. The other party was ready to wear the crown.
After discovering this, Duan Ming became more and more confused and interested.
What exactly can make a kind-hearted princess become a cold and ruthless king?
Unlike Duan Ming who was constantly thinking in his head, Aliya just glanced at Duan Ming, then retracted her gaze and said in a deep voice: "Since you are already here, let's go to the meeting hall to talk first."
Hearing Aliya's words, Mia was a little surprised and said: "The meeting hall? Could it be the kingdom's meeting hall?"
"Your Highness, will the king find out if you do this?"
In response, Aliya, who was ready to get up, said coldly: "He doesn't have many days to live."
"In a short while, I will be the new king. The old king has agreed to this matter, the ministers have agreed, the nobles have agreed, and Xiao Mo has agreed."
Hearing a series of consents, Mia's face was full of disbelief.
Just as she was about to say something else, Duan Ming behind her stopped her and whispered in her ear: "You'd better not ask anymore. Those who disagree have probably been forced to disagree."
"The princess of the kingdom you admire is no longer a princess. The murderous aura on her body makes even me feel scared."
"She has already embarked on the kingly road and will not turn back."
Hearing Duan Ming's whisper, Mia's question on her lips stopped abruptly.
Nodding silently, she consciously returned to the team of Ji Knight.
Duan Ming looked at the other party's somewhat bleak back and sighed helplessly.
"People always grow and change."
When everyone came to the meeting hall, Aliya sat in the first seat without hesitation, and then said to Duan Ming in a deep voice: "On behalf of the Kingdom of Kerria, I would like to thank Mr. Duan Ming for coming."
"Originally, my plan was to let you assist the revolutionary army to prevent them from falling too quickly."
"But now I have the power of the Kingdom of Kerria, and the rebel army that attracted the attention of the old king is no longer necessary."
"Of course, I won't let you come in vain. The mineral cooperation will be carried out according to the contract signed between you and the Minister of Foreign Affairs."
"Although I don't know what you buy those ores for, even if it is higher than the market price, you should make a lot of money."
Hearing Aliya's words, Duan Ming couldn't help but frown.
The meaning of the other party's words is very clear, that is, you have nothing to do with Kerria, you can get out.
But how could Duan Ming just pat his butt and leave.
In Duan Ming's view, now is the time to further negotiate conditions and cooperation with the other party.
After all, the merit of following the dragon should be rewarded with some benefits.
Furthermore, Duan Ming felt that the changes in the situation in Keria were too strange, which greatly aroused his curiosity.
Therefore, Duan Ming not only did not intend to leave, but asked directly for no reason: "Why?"
Hearing Duan Ming's words, Aliya frowned.
"Why do you want to establish a revolutionary army? It is impossible that it is just to attract the attention of the old king and find an opportunity to take the throne."
"After all, you seem to have the ability to directly control the Kingdom of Keria."
Duan Ming's next question made Aliya fall into contemplation for a short time.
But soon, Aliya said expressionlessly: "I gave those people at the bottom a chance, a chance to fight for the life they wanted."
"But unfortunately, not only did they not cherish it. They also became the people they once hated the most."
"They betrayed me, the original founder, before I exposed my identity as a princess."
"So they are no longer revolutionary armies, but betrayers. They betrayed their own country, their former comrades, and their own ideals."
"Such an organization was also betrayed by me when it betrayed everything."
"My bold attempt on the Decayed Kingdom failed, so I decided to take another path."
As she spoke, Aliya slowly drew out the long sword from her waist and pointed it at Duan Ming, saying, "Of course, the reason why I am so anxious to ascend the throne."
"There is another reason. If you want to know, then prove whether you are qualified to know first!"
Seeing that the other party had already drawn his sword to provoke, Duan Ming would naturally not refuse.
He stood up and said with a smile, "Okay, then let's have a king-to-king duel!"
As he spoke, Duan Ming also summoned his own God Meteorite Sword.
The long swords of the two intersected, as if a battle would break out in the next moment.
However, at this moment, Aliya smiled and put away the long sword and said, "Very good, I admire you very much. But this is not a place to fight."
Then, Aliya stood up and said, "Let's go to the martial arts arena. I look forward to the duel with you."
After that, Aliya left first.
Seeing this, Duan Ming was about to follow, but was stopped by Mia who stayed behind.
Mia looked at Duan Ming and said with a look of idiocy: "Why did you agree to fight the princess! Although you are strong, you are not as strong as the princess."
"Is the princess strong?" Duan Ming interrupted Mia's complaint and asked directly.
"Of course. The whole kingdom knows it. Except for the saint of the revolutionary army holding the holy spear, no one can match Princess Aliya who has the holy sword."
Duan Ming was also a little surprised when he heard Mia's words.
