Chapter 470 Do nothing? (6.8k)

The Kingdom of Lezetania is a very small country in Europe. It is located on the border of Germany and Austria. It was originally just a region, not a country, because a piece of extremely pure everything fell during the falling star rain. The mine was targeted by the three consortiums, Yangxue, Madonna's Cord, and EP, whose activities were centered in Europe. In order to facilitate the management of this place, the three major consortiums created a small garden country here, and the puppet kingdom Laizetania was established.

The capital of Lezetania is Stolero, a city with extremely distinctive characteristics.

Taking the huge lake caused by the central falling star rain as the dividing line, one side is a vast slum with dilapidated buildings and people living in poverty. It is difficult to see buildings more than two stories high here, while the other side is full of feasting and entertainment. High-rise buildings are crowded with people and cars, and almost all the people walking among them are bright and beautiful.

Although the gap between rich and poor in capitalist countries is already very large, in Lezetania, which is controlled by the three major consortiums, the gap between rich and poor has reached an appalling level.

A city has slums on one side and high-rise buildings on the other. The two contrasting areas come together like the two yin-yang fish in the Tai Chi diagram. It makes people stunned that there is such a city in the world, or even one. The capital of the country.

On the side of the lake close to the slums, there is an orphanage with mottled bricks and obvious signs of weather and rain.

This orphanage looks to be at least forty or fifty years old. There are graffiti everywhere outside the walls. However, the scenery inside the orphanage is relatively clean. From time to time, you can hear the laughter of children chasing after each other.

Julis was wearing a snow-white dress and stood in the courtyard of the orphanage. Her elegant and refined beauty and dignified and elegant temperament were incompatible with the surrounding simple environment. However, the children around her did not seem to be afraid of her and waved to her from time to time. greet.

Julis returned a gentle smile to the children in the orphanage and returned her gaze to the space window in front of her.

She looked confused for a while, but she still sent the message, then put away her phone and waited there with a heavy heart.

"He should be very busy now, wouldn't it be a good idea to disturb him at this time..."

It has been a month since the Rikka Strongest Finals ended, and now it is Rikka's summer vacation.

Julis took advantage of the summer vacation and returned to her homeland. Anyway, Rikka had nothing to do with her now. Whether it was the Golden Branch Alliance or Roy's Counter-Moon Consortium, she basically couldn't help.

"Julis, what do you want from me?"

The next moment, when Julis was still debating whether it would be better to withdraw the message, a voice suddenly appeared beside her.

Julis was startled, and couldn't help but sigh after seeing the figure of the person clearly.

"You came so quickly, Roy."

The boy who appeared next to her was a young man with white hair and red eyes, with a faint smile on his face.

He was also wearing a summer suit, which was not the Seidoukan Academy uniform, but an ordinary T-shirt and trousers, made of quite cool material.

"Are you cold? Can I ask someone to get you a coat?"

Seeing that he was dressed in midsummer, Julis couldn't help but ask him.

The latitude of Lezetania is a bit high. Although it is midsummer now, the temperature is only about 20 degrees, which is incomparable with Rikka.

"Um……"

Roy looked down at Julis's white dress and thought for a while.

"Julis, do you want to take a look at your own dressing before saying this?"

Julis was startled when she heard this. She glanced at her spotless white dress, her face heated up, and she coughed slightly in embarrassment.

"Sorry, I'm a little confused."

"What happened?"

Julis is usually very calm and will only lose her composure when encountering big problems. Seeing this, Roy asked in a deep voice, could someone be looking for trouble with Julis?

"It's actually not a big deal."

Julis's cheeks flushed, her eyes suddenly became wandering, and she didn't dare to look at Roy's face.

"My brother said he wanted to meet you..."

Her voice was suddenly as weak as a cat moaning. If Roy hadn't heard well enough, he might not have been able to catch her words.

"Your brother is the king of Lezetania, right?"

Roy looked at Julis and saw that she had an unusual reaction and looked like she was panicking, and he suddenly had a guess in his mind.

Could it be a drama about an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her parents-in-law? Although he is not an ugly daughter-in-law, Julis’s brother is not his in-laws either.

"That's right."

Julis nodded, her face slightly red.

"But even though he is a king, he is actually just a puppet. No matter what the consortium says, he has no ability to resist. The three major consortiums have the final say in our entire country..."

Roy also knew something about the current situation of Lezetania. The entire country is a puppet of the three major consortiums. Diplomacy and economy are all in the hands of the consortium. They don't even have their own army. The dignified royal family even lives a relative life. Living a life of poverty, any relatively large expenses must be reported to the consortium, living like a golden monkey trapped in a cage for people to watch.

"That's it."

Roy groaned.

Lezetania's current situation is indeed very powerless. Maybe Julis's brother wants to see him, not just for the ugly daughter-in-law to meet her parents-in-law.

"Then let's go!"

Roy didn't take it seriously and was about to leave for the palace.

"Don't you have a job?"

Julis was shocked by his decisiveness. Didn't his consortium just established? Now is his busiest time, right?

"You don't need to listen to my brother's nonsense. He is also a man who is used to going crazy. If you are busy now, don't pay attention to it. Wait until you have time..."

She knew that Roy was very busy right now, so she sent him a message, but she didn't expect him to reply immediately.

As a result, Roy did not reply immediately, he just rushed to her side immediately.

"It's okay. I've left all the complicated matters to Claudia. I didn't intend to do everything myself like an emperor. No matter how busy I am, I still have time to come and see your family."

Roy waved his hands carelessly.

He is destined not to stay here for a long time, as long as he grasps the general direction of the consortium, everything else can be left to the people below, and he also believes that Claudia's ability will not let him down.

When the consortium is on the right track, he can open up the two worlds and bring Fan Xinglu, Stella, and Claudia to Fuyuki City.

"Wait a minute, before you go to the palace, can you meet someone first?"

Julis breathed a sigh of relief and was about to catch up with Roy when she suddenly thought of something and quickly stepped forward and took Roy's arm.

Seeing Roy's confused look, Julis pointed to a glass room in the orphanage. It should be the insulated room in the orphanage. From the outside, you could see various flowers and plants growing inside.

You can vaguely see a snow-white figure walking through it, loosening the soil and watering the flowers and plants.

Roy stepped forward and opened the door of the heat preservation room, and colorful flowers of various colors came into his eyes along with the lush greenery.

The snow-white figure turned around after hearing the sound of the door opening. His eyes as calm as lake water fell on Roy, and he was suddenly startled.

"Is it you?"

"Ophelia?"

Roy looked at the girl in front of him with a little surprise in his eyes.

The girl who stayed in this insulated room combed her long white hair in front of her body and looked at Roy in surprise with her blood-red pupils.

She has a petite figure, with a waist that can be held in one hand. She is completely opposite to Kirin Todou, who looks like a high school student but is actually a junior high school student. She looks like a junior high school student but is actually close to adulthood.

"Why are you here?"

"Why are you here?"

The two of them asked each other in unison, and then closed their mouths.

Immediately, Ophelia chuckled and gave the answer.

"The consortium didn't dare imprison me, so I came back."

The sadness on her face swept away, and her smile became as broad and peaceful as the sea, as if the lead had been washed away, and there was no longer any impurity left in her heart. Her temperament was gentle and dignified, making people involuntarily want to get closer to her.

"After I was defeated by you and fell into coma that day, I woke up and saw the representatives of the six major consortiums..."

The six major consortiums were very concerned about Ophelia's condition, but they did not dare to take risks themselves, so at that time, she was only accompanied by Julis and Todo Kirin. The representatives of the six major consortiums used virtual images to negotiate with her.

It is said to be negotiation, but it is actually accountability.

The Golden Branch Alliance has collapsed due to Roy's efforts. Diluc confessed to everything and everyone else was eliminated. The six major consortiums basically confirmed that Ophelia was a force field being used by others, but she drifted to Even if the entire Rikka was destroyed, the attitude that it didn't matter made the six major consortiums have a strong sense of vigilance.

Once she is used again, it is very likely that a disaster similar to or even greater than that of the Golden Branch Alliance will erupt again.

The consortium didn't dare to let down its vigilance against her, but it was embarrassed that there was no way to deal with her.

Her power is so strong that all existing science and technology have no effect on her. Even the prison specially used to imprison the Xingmai Generations is still the same to her. She specifically goes to find Wanyou Tianluo. As a method of restraint, she declared that she didn't care about the matter at all. The six major financial groups thought hard and still couldn't do anything to Ophelia.

But what makes the consortium feel fortunate is that Ophelia does have remorse.

She volunteered that she would never do that kind of thing again and was willing to accept a life of imprisonment.

It just so happened that Julis proposed that she be responsible for guarding Ophelia and was willing to bear all the consequences.

Considering that Julis was familiar with Roy, after discussion, the consortium made a smooth move and asked Julis to take Ophelia away.

The consortium couldn't deal with Ophelia, so they had no choice but to hand over this time bomb to Roy. There are few people in the world who can withstand the rampage of Ophelia, and Roy happens to be one of the few who can stop her. .

Julis took the initiative and took advantage of the summer vacation to bring Ophelia back to the Kingdom of Lezetania, the orphanage where the two grew up together.

In fact, if Ophelia wants to go out, no one, including Julis, can stop her. But since she lost to Roy, her personality has taken a 180-degree turn, just like she was back when she was a child. She was easy to talk to and kept her word. She lived a self-imprisonment life in the orphanage for a month without leaving the house. She raised flowers and grass every day. She lived a very comfortable life, and it didn't look like she was imprisoned at all.

"The only regret is that these flowers and plants don't like me very much now..."

After Ophelia finished explaining, her gentle pupils fell apologetically on a withered flower on the ground.

"My body is full of all kinds of poisons, and even I can't control it. Once I accidentally touch a flower, it will become like this."

The poison on her body is extremely complex and fatal to any living thing. The explosion of her ability caused the destruction of the research institute. The place where the research institute is located is now barren of grass, and the land is as if it is dead.

Just a flower can't escape her poisonous hand. Even if she deliberately suppresses her power, it's useless. Her power is too huge, much bigger than Roy and Fan Xinglu. She can't control it at all. force.

After hearing this, Roy walked forward and squatted down next to Ophelia.

He saw the flower Ophelia was looking at, stretched out his hand, and placed it on the branch of the flower.

It has indeed withered completely, not even a single cell is left.

However, this cell model can be replicated.

Roy used his body modification ability to recreate an identical flower using this flower as a prototype. A flower bone quickly broke out of the ground and bloomed with snow-white petals.

Thanks to Ti Ma's body modification ability, Roy can now even knead the shape of his soul at will. It is easy to copy a plant.

Ophelia looked at the flowers that had sprouted out of the ground again, and she was suddenly startled.

"I told you, I will bear your fate."

Roy stood up and looked at Ophelia with a faint smile on his face.

"Ophelia, you have to do what you really want to do. If the courage in your heart withers like this flower, I will give you that courage."

Stop living by following the crowd.

Roy said so.

The "god" in the fairy world may be really powerful, but for Roy, the existences he has witnessed may not be weaker than him.

Moreover, one day, he will never be weaker than that so-called "god".

"Well, thank you."

Ophelia was stunned for a while, and a bright new smile spread on her face, just like the flowers that had just bloomed on the ground.

She stepped forward gently, stretched out her arms, and threw her weightless body directly into Roy's arms.

"Varied--?!"

Julis, who was standing at the door, almost screamed.

She glanced at Ophelia, who had fallen into Roy's arms like a swallow returning to her nest, and then at Roy, who was gently stroking Ophelia's head. On one side was her friend, and on the other was someone she had a crush on. The object, her heart suddenly felt as if a five-flavor bottle had been knocked over. After a while, she could only sigh and accept this status quo.

Julis asked Roy to talk to Ophelia in the hope that Roy could untie Ophelia's knot.

Seeing Ophelia's face reappeared with the same smile as when she was a child, Julis knew that she had made the right decision to ask Roy to help.

But the mood is very complicated.

"Julis."

Roy left the heat preservation room, and Julis was about to leave, but was stopped by Ophelia.

"What's the matter, Ophelia? Is there anything you want to add to what's here?"

Julis turned back and looked at Ophelia doubtfully.

"No, there are plenty of things here."

Ophelia smiled gently at Julis.

"I just want to say that I won't compete with you."

"Rob?"

"Um."

Ophelia looked away, and her smiling gaze fell on Roy, who was waiting for them to finish speaking outside the insulated room.

Julis reacted immediately, her face suddenly turned red.

"What are you robbing? I'm not..."

"You'd better be careful, Julis."

Seeing her acting like a tsundere, Ophelia looked embarrassed.

"I won't rob you. I've made a big mistake and I don't have the qualifications to force anything. It's enough to meet once in a while to comfort the trauma in my heart. But your opponent should not be underestimated, right? If you continue to be frank like this, how are you going to compete with others? "

"You are so verbose!"

Julis yelled awkwardly, turned around and left the heat preservation room.

Really, I regained my old personality and suddenly became like an old lady!

Julis, who rushed towards the palace with Roy, had a small complaint in her heart.

However, it is already a great blessing to be able to resume the same way of getting along with each other like before.

And all of this is thanks to Roy...

The royal palace in Lezetania is smaller than Roy imagined.

It looked like it was only as big as a football field. There were several ancient European-style castles and clock towers inside, and there were about a dozen maids cleaning them. It was not as spacious as the Tono family's mansion that Roy had seen before.

"Oh my, my guest is welcome! I just said that in the morning. I didn't expect Mr. Roy to come to our Kingdom of Lezetania so soon. It's such an honor for me!"

Julis's brother is named Jobert. There are no two faces in the family. He has red hair similar to Julis. He is not strong in stature, but his appearance is very handsome. Even if he is not a king, he is a star. It must be very promising.

With a formulaic smile on his face, he held Roy's hand in his hands and moved them up and down, warmly welcoming his arrival.

"You've already seen it, so it's time to let Roy go. He's very busy!"

Julis stepped forward very awkwardly, slapped Jobert's hand away, took Roy's hand and walked out.

Roy's expression was very subtle.

No, he just came and you chased him away?

Is this the way to treat guests?

"Julis, you are too confused. I have something else to say to Mr. Roy."

Jobert laughed and didn't care about Julis's rebellious behavior. He sat on the sofa next to him.

"Even if I don't say it, I guess Mr. Roy can guess it, but I think it's better to say it directly. Mr. Roy, I want to ask you for a favor."

Roy stopped walking while being pulled by Julis, and turned around with a look of as expected.

"Is it about the consortium?"

"Hahaha, you are worthy of being able to build the seventh largest consortium from scratch in just two years!"

Jobert laughed loudly, and then the smile on his face disappeared, and his expression became bitter.

"If you have come all the way from the orphanage, I believe you can also see how bad the current situation of this country is. I don't have the ability to change this country, but Julis, or you who Julis relies on, are different. With your ability, not to mention driving away the three major financial groups, just making the citizens live a better life should be a small matter."

"There is nothing good in our Kingdom of Lezetania. If you like something, just take it away."

Jobert's attitude was much more straightforward and decisive than Roy imagined, and he was also much more single.

Take whatever you like, are you really not afraid that I will take away your entire country?

But Roy didn't want such a country at all. His ideal is not to unify.

Jobert had never met him. Even if he had profiled Roy's character from Julis's words, he should not be able to fully grasp his thoughts. It was a gamble to make such a decision.

Julis couldn't help but stop and patted her forehead in annoyance.

She knew her brother would ask Roy for help, so she wanted to let Roy leave immediately. She already owed Roy too much, but shamefully, after hearing her brother's words, her heart began to waver uncontrollably. If the Kingdom of Lezetania could get rid of the control of the consortium, the people would definitely live a better life. She couldn't refuse this temptation.

But in this way, she would never be able to repay Roy for her whole life.

"Hold a dinner party."

Roy said to Jobert.

"My honor!"

Jobert stood up happily and immediately asked someone to do it.

Julis covered her forehead and sighed.

It seemed that she would have to spend her whole life to repay Roy's kindness.

At night.

The small Lezetania Palace was brightly lit. Yang Xue, the Holy Mother's Rope, and EP's boss in Lezetania were all cadres at the headquarters. They all came over and attended the dinner party.

Although they had received news in advance that the tyrant might come, the three people in charge fell silent when they saw Julis, who was wearing an evening gown, holding the arm of Roy, who was wearing a suit and tie, and appearing.

"That's my sister-in-law, Maria, the princess of Lezetania."

In a corner of the hall, Julis was introducing the woman who appeared with Jobert to Roy in a low voice.

Roy looked over. Julis's sister-in-law, then she can't be considered a completely unrelated person, so remember her appearance.

Then Julis nodded at several women who appeared behind Jobert.

"Those are my brother's lovers."

"Huh?"

"The consortium gave them to me to monitor my brother, and my brother couldn't refuse."

Julis snorted lightly. Her status and position were there, and my brother couldn't refuse.

Lezetania was originally a box garden country created, probably to serve some rich people. The laws here did not stipulate monogamy. It was common for big men with high status and a lot of money to have three wives and four concubines, regardless of gender.

"Oh."

Roy understood, and his lover ignored it.

"Mr. Roy, can you please talk to me?"

Soon, the three cadres took the initiative to find Roy.

Roy separated from Julis, and left the hall with the three people and went to the balcony.

Julis looked at the back of Roy who was chatting and laughing with the three cadres on the balcony, took a deep breath, grabbed the waiter beside him, snatched the wine glass from his hand, and poured herself a lot of wine.

When Roy finished talking to the three people and returned to Julis, two abnormal blushes had appeared on her face, her eyes gradually became blurred, and her steps were not stable.

"Why did you drink so much?"

Roy came over and put her on his shoulders.

"Are you done talking?"

Julis did not answer, but raised her head, opened her eyes, and asked Roy with a little confused.

"We're done talking."

Roy said indifferently.

"It's not a big deal. They promised me on the spot that the three major consortiums will withdraw from Lezetania tomorrow, and all the Wanying mines in the territory will belong to your country."

Julis raised her head and stared at Roy's face in a daze. She didn't say a word for a long time.

"Julis doesn't drink well. She must be drunk."

Jobert walked over with Maria's hand and looked at Roy with a smile.

"Can you please take her back to her room, Mr. Roy?"

"It's a small matter..."

Roy glanced at Jobert and suddenly understood something in his heart.

Seeing that Roy agreed, Jobert immediately called a maid to lead the way for Roy.

This unnecessary operation made Roy more certain of his idea.

Under the guidance of the maid, Roy supported Julis and returned to her room in the palace.

Although the castle was not big, Julis's room was quite spacious, and it looked wider than the reception room of Jobert. Although the decoration inside was not luxurious, it was decorated as beautifully as possible.

"Looks like a good brother."

Roy glanced at the layout of Julis's room, picked up the girl horizontally, put her on the huge princess bed in the middle, took off her shoes and socks, and covered her with a thin blanket.

Then, Roy stood in front of the window, his eyes swept over the full moon and pond outside the window.

For more than ten minutes, the whole room was quiet, and only Julis's shallow breathing could be heard, without any unusual sound.

"...Are you doing nothing?"

Finally, Julis couldn't help it first, sat up from the bed, and her unwilling eyes fell on Roy in front of the window.

What's so good about a mere pond? Can it be more beautiful than her!
