Chapter 262

"That's enough." Orson said, sitting up straight and finishing the food slowly.

After eating, he took the handkerchief from Franca and asked:

"How long have I been asleep?"

"Probably just half a day?"

Franka counted the time and said this.

Orson fell into sleep not long after Elsa came to visit last night.

During this period of time, for some reason, Orson was always very sleepy, his body was also quite weak, and he could not use his original strength at all.

"Then...the two things you just said, what are the bad things?"

"The bad thing is...last night, not only Elsa came, but Lite and the others also came over. That Lena has a pretty good nose."

Upon hearing this, Orson's expression changed, and then he asked:

"What about the good news?"

"The good news is that Elsa helped you fool around and let them go back first, so at least they don't know about your changes yet."

Hearing this, Orson breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good."

"However, even if Elsa doesn't help you, I won't let them disturb your rest."

Franka said this, lowering her head and playing with her fingers.

"But when are you going to show up again?"

"At least until my demonic features disappear."

Orson looked at the top of his head and said this.

"What if it never disappears? Can you never show your face in front of humans?"

"That's all it can do."

"..." Franka sighed

tone.

"But you do have to show up, otherwise if things about you are spread outside, people will easily suspect Elsa of burning bridges. If you want to help her to the end, you must show up as soon as possible."

"Then, can you help me disguise myself and cover up these two obstructive things on my head?"

"...This thing seems really hard to cover up, and your eyes are different from before."

"Right."

Orson sighed helplessly after hearing Franka's words.

"So, this is all I can do now."

"But, since I have a nocturnal creature like you with me, it won't be too boring."

When Franka heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and then turned her head away.

"I don't take that as a compliment!"

Chapter 72: Queen (4K)

A few more days passed, and after Elsa completed Alsace's funeral and announced the official version of the political struggle, it was finally time for her to ascend the throne and be crowned.

In the early morning, Elsa sat alone in the palace. Behind her was Avro, who had been with her for a long time.

"I didn't expect that Elsa would become the queen now."

Avro said with emotion while helping Elsa braid her hair.

Elsa sat in front of the mirror, looking at herself in the mirror, with a forced smile on her lips.

For her, the price she paid to ascend the throne was too high.

And more people paid much more than she did to help her ascend to the throne.

"I don't know if it's all worth it, Afro."

Elsa reached out and gently took Avro's hand on her shoulder.

Avro could feel that Elsa's palms were very cold, and it didn't look like she was happy or happy.

"Too many people died because of me."

"Too many people have paid a price they didn't have to pay because of me."

"At this time, are you still saying such depressing words? My Majesty the Queen?" Avro said, sighed, and then said with relief:

"Don't you believe in my divination the most? In my divination, your future will be accompanied by various ups and downs, but everything will be rewarded in the end."

"Everything is the same as the divination track, isn't it?"

"But among the many stars, I am not the one surrounded by them, right?"

"Not everyone."

Avro shook his head.

"All stardust has its own trajectory. It seems that some stars surround one star for a lifetime, but isn't that star also surrounding other stars?"

"So, you astrologers just use some mysterious and mysterious neutral words to confuse people into confusion. If you finish all the good and bad things, of course you won't go wrong."

Elsa couldn't help but complain.

"Hey, okay, okay, cheer up, today is your coronation day. How can you look sad on such an occasion?"

Avro cleverly avoided answering Elsa's question directly and patted Elsa's shoulder instead.

"By the way, speaking of which, now that the issue of the throne has been solved for you, now you have to start thinking about the issue of heirs, right?"

"Heir?" Elsa was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I'm still young...I haven't considered this issue."

"Eh? This can't be done~" Avro said, putting his hands on his chest and making a big cross.

"As an emperor, the stability of the empire is the top priority, and among the stability of the empire, having an heir is the most important thing. However, considering that you don't have a husband yet, would it be better to marry a husband first? "

"Now, Elsa, let me ask, do you have someone you like? If you do, just take advantage of the fact that you are the queen now and confess your love to them directly. There will definitely be no problem."

"..." Elsa was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then her face suddenly turned red, and she quickly shook her head.

"No...no, I haven't considered this issue yet. Besides, no...it's impossible!"

"Oh? How do you know it's impossible without thinking about it? Or, Elsa, you really already have your own candidate in mind?"

Seeing that the more she explained, the more confused she became, Elsa simply shook her head, and then said: "It's not what you think! Okay, Avro

, let’s not raise this issue! "

Seeing that Elsa was so determined not to answer this question, Avro could only shrug helplessly, and then sighed.

"Well, anyway, it's almost time now. It's time for you to go out and meet your subjects."

"Yeah." Elsa nodded.

She took a few deep breaths, adjusted her mood, and looked at herself in the mirror again. She had exquisite makeup, elegant hairstyle, and her whole person exuded a noble temperament.

Although it may sound a bit ugly, at this moment, I seem to be the most beautiful person in the world.

The power of the empire is already firmly in his hands.

Elsa stood up, and then, accompanied by Avro, walked outside.

Originally, relatives should be present on the coronation day, but now Elsa has no relatives.

The so-called distant relatives and collateral relatives are all people who are separated by who knows how many generations, and have long been quite estranged from each other.

Upon entering the main hall, Pope Levi had already stood in front of the throne waiting for Elsa. When he saw Elsa arriving, he held up the crown next to him.

On both sides of the hall stood hereditary nobles and imperial officials.

As Elsa walked towards the Pope, they all knelt down on one knee and looked down at the ground.

This scene was much more grand than Alsace's hasty coronation before.

Elsa walked step by step in front of the Pope, then stood still and clasped her hands.

Then, she lowered her head slightly, closed her eyes and said:

"The great goddess is above, protecting every one of our imperial subjects."

Upon hearing these words, Pope Levi also raised the crown in his hand high, and then he shouted loudly and energetically:

"The great goddess is above! May the goddess's blessings be upon her country forever, and may the goddess's light always shine on her believers!"

Then, he gently placed the crown in his hand on Elsa's head.

He then moved out of the way so that Elsa could sit directly on the throne.

After seeing Levi get out of the way, Elsa moved slightly and walked to the throne. Then, she sat down gently. She held the scepter in her hand, which symbolized royal power, and tapped it gently. land.

Almost instantly, the ground changed. A ray of water-blue light flashed from the center of the hall. Then, many people's eyes stopped on it.

For many people, even the rich and powerful, may only have the opportunity to witness a coronation once in their lifetime.

After the aqua light that symbolized the royal color gradually dissipated, it also meant that the coronation ceremony was officially over. At this time, the nobles and officials present knelt down and bowed to Elsa.

"Congratulations on the coronation of my emperor! I wish my emperor a long life and long-lasting rule within the country!"

Elsa waved her hand gently, and at this moment, everyone returned from kneeling to standing.

She glanced at the crowd, as if she was looking for someone among them, but in the end, she didn't seem to find him, and there was a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

Yes, how could he appear in public with his current physical condition?

The next step is for the six Dukes to pay their respects to the Queen respectively.

Until the last Duchy of Naples, Orson, whom Elsa was looking forward to, did not appear. Instead, Chelinina, the Prime Minister of Naples, appeared in front of Elsa.

"Your Majesty... the Duke of Orson was seriously injured in the last battle and is still recuperating. On behalf of the Duke of Orson and all the subjects of the Duchy of Naples, I would like to send my regards to you."

"It doesn't matter." Elsa shook her head, then smiled and said:

"Then tell Duke Orson for me and ask him to take good care of his body. He is the pillar of the empire and must take care of himself."

"I will, thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

Chelinina also smiled and then retreated.

This is only part of the coronation process. Next, Elsa, as the new queen, will go to Saint Laurent City to meet her subjects and speak in the central square.

After becoming the emperor, it will be even harder...

On the other side, in the basement.

"If I guessed correctly, the time now should be the time when Elsa ascends the throne and is crowned." Franka said as she looked at Orson who was lying on the bed.

"Why are you telling me this? I can't get out now." Orson looked at the book in his hand and simply replied, as if he was really not interested in it.

These days, Orson has been able to get out of bed and walk around normally again.

, the horns on his forehead are slowly getting smaller, and his eyes have returned to normal.

Except for some unidentified black patterns on his arms, everything else is slowly turning into a normal person, and it is expected that he will be back to normal in a few days.

But what worries Orson is his own strength. Rather than saying that it has not fully recovered, it is better to say that it has not recovered at all.

He now feels that any strong person can knock him down, and he can't use magic.

It is definitely not a pleasant feeling to fall from the sky to the bottom of the valley.

"Eh? Don't say that~ Elsa is the emperor you spent so much money to support. Don't you want to see what she looks like when she wears the imperial robe?"

"This kind of thing... is not so bad."

"So you really want to wear the imperial robe yourself?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

Orson rolled his eyes at Franka unhappily.
