Chapter 127

What slowly spreads out in the three people's field of vision is a vast space. The ground is covered with a bright red velvet carpet, giving people a sense of nobility and luxury.

The surrounding walls are made of golden marble, set off by the gorgeous chandeliers hanging high, making the audience hall with its extremely high ceiling shine brightly.

In sharp contrast to this vast space are two chairs set deep in the hall, above the long staircase.

Obviously, the ones in the front are thrones made of pure gold. At the deepest level, one step further up, stands proudly paved with the scales of the Imperial Prison Dragon that have been preserved by special means. The base is carved from the head of the Imperial Prison Dragon. , I want to sit on the dragon chair that is several times bigger than the throne.

The huge dragon horns of the Imperial Prison Dragon on both sides of the dragon chair are preserved, giving the impression that it is guarding from above, and seems to be supervising the throne and even the entire kingdom.

Compared to the majestic throne, the dragon chair cast from the skeleton of the strongest and most dangerous dragon in the northern plateau behind it is enough to eclipse it with its unique layout, and even shows its incomparable majesty.

Just seeing the dragon chair, the remaining sense of oppression made Fulian feel the powerful strength of the dragon during his lifetime.

Even the brave team would have a hard time dealing with this kind of dragon, but Fulian would definitely run away without even thinking about turning around. This also made her understand in an instant that the high-end power possessed by this kingdom was probably not her own at all. Able to compete.

This also made her want to ask Ash why there is a chair on the throne. This is completely unscientific, right?

And for some reason, there is obviously a strong barrier behind the throne stairs. Based on her experience, it should be a hidden barrier, but it was destroyed for some reason...

But the atmosphere at the scene did not allow her to ask any more questions, because the audience hall was surrounded by knights wearing black armor and black cloaks, as motionless as statues.

Also sitting on the throne was a middle-aged man wearing a crown and exuding an aura of calmness and authority.

............................

The king was already sitting on the throne, so Fulian naturally didn't say much, just as she normally did when seeing nobles, she took Philon and knelt down silently on one knee.

However...Ash didn't make any move.

Without even waiting for the two to urge him, he silently walked up the steps and sat on a chair higher than the throne under the dumbfounded eyes of Fulilian and Fearon.

This scene immediately silenced the air for a moment.

"——A-Master Ash! What are you doing?!" Fearon was so frightened that he almost rushed up and dragged him down.

But thinking of the etiquette emphasized by Fulilian, she still tried to hold it back, but she still couldn't hold it back and screamed out in surprise.

Under normal circumstances, Fulian would have to stop for a moment to prevent everyone from being pushed out at the same time, so she could climb onto the guillotine happily.

However... ⑹... The Dragon Chair of Dad King: Above the Seat Nine = is undoubtedly the dream of the great leader of the King of Power Dance Theater of Esther Wang Lin Guosi, exuding unquestionable authority.

But sitting on it, the overly familiar person made her feel dizzy, and she even doubted her own eyes...and whether she was dreaming.

But before he could pinch himself, at the top of the long steps deep in the audience hall, the king on the throne had already spoken:

"——You are the brave group, the only survivor so far, the magician Fulian, right? Why is it important to meet with me?"

The king's powerful voice, although not loud, was directly conveyed to the ears of the two people under the amplification of the magic tool installed deep inside.

This made Fulilian come back to her senses. She temporarily put aside her doubts about the black-armored knights around her who did not stop Ash from getting on the dragon throne. She considered her words and said slowly:

"Your Majesty the King, when I came to your country this time, I felt uneasy because of what I heard along the way. I don't know..."

"But it doesn't matter."

"Yes... more than eighty years ago, we worked together to seal the corrupt sage Guval. But when we passed by the sealed place not long ago, we found that Guval had already been rescued by the demons... ..."

Fulilian lowered her head silently out of politeness, and without looking directly at the king, she just put together what she had seen along the way, as well as her inner speculations.

That is to say, the demon clan is brewing something, and perhaps there is even a new demon king who has ascended the throne of the demon clan.

At the end, he said he was a little tired, cleared his throat, paused, and then concluded:

"That is to say... the current war between the two countries is to some extent a trap of the demons. The demons will only watch you and the empire lose from behind the scenes. By then, the entire north may be completely encompassed by the demons. Even the whole world will be ruled by demons."

"That's really dangerous."

Fulilian's saliva was almost dry as she spoke, but the king just nodded slightly and did not say anything more.

This made her expression gradually stiffen, but now she could only continue:

"If possible, I boldly request that your country shake hands with the Empire and make peace... I hope to promote peace between the two countries. I wonder what His Majesty the King thinks? If you agree, I will continue to go north to the Empire to meet with the Empire. His Majesty the Emperor."

"...This sounds good."

"Do you agree?" There was a hint of surprise on Fulian's face. She didn't expect that the other party actually agreed so easily.

But the next time he looked up, he found that after the king had been silent for a long time, he finally couldn't sit still and lay on the armrest, looking back. He was still asking Ash in a low voice: "....What do you think?"

"...I told you not to look back."

"Yes, I'm sorry..." The king, who couldn't help but look back after not getting the instruction for a long time, quickly lowered his head in fear and admitted his mistake.

It was also at this moment that his majesty as a king was instantly shattered, making Fulilian look like his whole body was turned to stone on the spot.

............................

............................

In fact, when he entered the audience hall, Ash... was already cursing in his heart.

Because Fulilian's guess was correct, the deepest dragon chair was originally hidden.

When the barrier is released normally, a wall should form, completely blocking the dragon chair and your own image and aura.

In this way, when meeting foreign guests, and occasionally when I am present, I can conduct command from the rear.

Due to the far distance, others cannot hear the sound from above. After all, the amplifying magic tool next to the throne will not be effective even if it is far away.

But now that the barrier was suddenly destroyed, the abrupt dragon chair on it would definitely arouse suspicion. He could only sigh as he gave up, silently walked forward and covered his face on the chair with a headache, feeling depressed.

When the king looked back, he finally could no longer remain silent.

Although he had reminded the king just as he was doing as usual when he passed by him, the other party still didn't understand the past now that the barrier was destroyed. Perhaps he thought he wanted to say something in person, so he closed the barrier and Subconsciously looking back for his instructions.

"...Forget it." Ya Xiu didn't want to blame more for the time being. He just covered his face and shook his head, sighing: "Isn't it good?"

"Can you agree?" the king asked cautiously.

"It can be considered."

"I see."

After receiving the approval, the king turned around and instantly showed his majestic expression again. He even suddenly thought of something and said in a deep voice: "Fulillian, I can consider your request, but didn't anyone tell you before coming?" But you are not allowed to look up at me? Is it a capital offense to look rudely in the audience hall?"

"....I'm very sorry, please be gracious...."

Since Ash was following him, no one had ever said this, so Fulilian seemed a little confused when she heard this rule, but she just subconsciously followed and bowed her head again.

But his head was like mud, and he couldn't figure out what was going on now.

Ash above also asked the king not to pay attention to this matter for the time being, so the king also ignored this topic:

"Forget it, since you don't know, I won't pursue your charges for the time being. If you have anything else, just tell me."

"...I heard that your country has a lot of cooperation with the demons. Not only the big demons, but also the ordinary demons are in your country, and even the royal court comes in and out..."

"What's going on?"

"Your Majesty may not be aware that although the demons have been temporarily defeated and have turned into a piece of loose sand again, even if they are just a group of demons, their threat cannot be underestimated."

"Why do you say that?"

"...The magic of the demons is weird and mysterious. To this day, exactly how much magic the demons control is still an unsolved mystery. No one even knows what the upper limit of the magic can be. Even if it is a myth, It is impossible for Celia to know about the elves that have existed in this era, and they are at a level that is unimaginable by human magic technology.”

Fulilian was afraid that the king who had lived in the deep palace for a long time would not know the harm and terror of the demons, so she specifically mentioned to him the horrors of the demons.

In addition to the demon's personality, there is also the demon's terrifying magical talent, which is not even a little expanded in the process.

Although the accumulation of magic power is not faster than that of outstanding humans, the long life span can make up for this shortcoming.

Of course, the most terrifying thing is all the demons. Without any foundation or teachers, one person can develop magic that all humans can't match in hundreds or decades.

Their only shortcoming is probably that they only learn one magic, which makes them too partial. Otherwise, Celia may not be able to deal with the demon king level demons.

After all...the height of a single magic, whether human or subspecies of elves, has its own limit. That is the limit of a living being, and the big demon can surpass that limit.

Once again, I carefully described the unreliable character and terrifying magic of the demons, as well as the fact that the demons may have strange magic that makes it difficult for people to guard against...

Although Fulilian never raised her head again, she still said in a deep voice:

"As mentioned above, Your Majesty, King Seal of the Kingdom, I hope that you can be on guard against the demon clan and, if possible, cut off from the demon clan. All relationships are the best choice.”

"I understand. I will consider this matter carefully. Please step back and rest in the annex."

Normally in power, if Ash is away, as the apparent king, the king will be vague in this way.

The specific decision will be decided in the future... He doesn't know how to decide. Anyway, it's just not him who decides.

Fulilian originally wanted to say something else, but the king had already waved off the guests, and the door at the back was once again pushed open with a heavy friction sound.

............................

............................

She had finished what she wanted to say, but when she returned to the entrance of the royal court, Fulian looked blankly at the wide stone pavement in the royal city with a sense of trance as if she had been in another world.

She had an indescribable hazy feeling about the prosperity that was right in front of her. After a long time, she couldn't help but look at Feilun who was walking out next to her:

"Phelan...what do you think is going on now?"

"Master Ash is so powerful~!" Feilun, who was also in a trance, said what was in his heart without thinking: "Even the king of a country respects Master Ash so much."

"....That's not respect at all. It's obviously surrender, right?"

"Yes, but isn't that even more powerful?" Feilun looked like it was a matter of course, not surprised by this, and even couldn't help nodding:

"As expected of Master Ash, well... I would rather say, this is the height Master Ash should be at; but I still have to ask later how much Master Ash is hiding from me."

"...."

This guy is hopeless. Although he often talks about Ya Xiu, he is still a loyal believer of Ya Xiu even now. Even if he knew that he was sold, he would still be crying and counting the money, right? ——Fulillian looked at the child who had grown up since she was a child, and was speechless for a moment.

After all, even she doesn't think that this concept can be changed today, but the psychological accumulation of problems has increased again.

After searching for Aura to no avail, Ash followed him out of the royal court with a depressed expression.

As soon as he walked out, he was met with a cold look from Fulilian.

"You lied to me." Fulilian came up to him and stared up at him.

"What happened?"

"This country is not governed by a virtuous king at all. You are behind the scenes!" After finishing speaking, Fulilian couldn't help but murmur angrily:

"I should have thought of it earlier. The magic of growing wheat and crops is clearly Millialde's trick, but she is always doing nothing, or else she is thinking about drinking, and it is impossible to do that kind of thing, which means... .The only person who would go out of his way to spread this magic is you.”

"Did you just find out?"

"——Tell me, what else are you hiding from me? What else did you lie to me?"

"This is a bit of a misunderstanding. I didn't lie to you. You asked me if I am a high-ranking official in the kingdom. I am indeed not. I am just a consultant to the royal family."

"Where are you as an advisor? On the surface, he looks like a real king, even more powerful than ordinary kings. But when he turned around, I realized that it was just a disguise! You are the real one. King?"

Thinking of this, Fulian had an angry expression.

But Ash spread his hands innocently: "But what's so bad about it? Or is this an 'evil'?"

"It's not evil. To a certain extent, it is indeed a good deed. But do you understand the dangers of demons?"

"I understand, but humans can kill easily. Humans kill no less humans than demons." Facing Fulilian's question, he retorted with reason:

"If you can't find a specific group of people, you can designate it as a group of nobles. Many of them don't even think that they are the same race as the common people. Are you going to kill them? Have you ever thought about creating a group without nobles? A world where everyone is equal? ​​Or separate them from the collective human race?”

"this......"

"By the way, the empire you once helped is now planning to kill you and Celie. Do you plan to kill all the empire?"

"..." This sudden information made Fulilian open her mouth in confusion. She was stunned for a while before she asked in a daze: "....What are you talking about? How did you know it? These?"

"The Magical Agents, and Celie already know about it, but the source of the information is the spies she planted in the empire."

"...It is clear that the empire can continue to this day largely because of the master, but do they want to kill the master's mentor and adoptive mother?"

"right."

"...If it's true, I really can't laugh anymore."

"No, didn't you laugh?"

"That's a forced smile...you bastard who doesn't care about the atmosphere."

With a bitter smile and a shake of her head, Wu was so shocked by this information that she had forgotten what she wanted to say. , shook his head and silently walked to the annex, without looking back:

"Although I don't know what you are planning, I can't control you... Just pay attention to yourself now; I don't want to hear about your death by playing with fire... and you can kill Apart from the unexpected surprise attack by the top warriors, the only thing that killed you and Celie was the unpredictable 'fairy tale' of the great demon clan."
