"After the members are selected, are we going to Noland again?"
Cersei and Josiah finished discussing spies. When Josiah was about to leave, she suddenly asked this question.
"The Frost Plain outside the border fortress is my brother's battlefield. Elder Cersei, your battlefield is in the Demon Realm's capital city. As for me …"
Josiah knew that now might be Cersei's most vulnerable period. The death of a father was unacceptable for any child.
"Is it in Noland?"
Cersei knew that it was a willful and unreasonable behavior to ask Josiah to stay at this time.
The purple-clothed people in the distance had already checked Hiri's summer homework, but they did not come over to disturb the conversation between Josiah and Cersei.
There was also a very short silence between Josiah and Cersei.
"Then elder sister, I'll go first …"
When Josiah was about to say something, Cersei took the initiative to interrupt Josiah.
"How long have you been dating that human girl?"
Cersei did not lower her voice when she asked this question. Hiri and the purple-clothed people could hear it clearly.
This question directly aroused Hiri's vigilance. She seemed to be ready to walk over and answer this question for Josiah.
"Two years."
Josiah directly told Cersei the answer she wanted.
The atmosphere between the two became tense in just a few seconds. Cersei had never been very supportive of Josiah finding a human girl as a partner.
But this had nothing to do with Josiah. Josiah could obey most of his elder sister's decisions and push her to the position of the ruler of the Demon Realm.
But there were some things that could not be changed even if Cersei objected. Among them, Josiah's most resolute attitude was his relationship with Hiri.
Cersei kept a cold face in the face of Josiah's answer. Josiah's facial muscles were also tense.
"Have you thought about a wedding?"
The silence lasted for less than five seconds before it was broken by Cerashley's question.
It was a straight ball that was so fast that no one could avoid it. Not only did it shatter the silent atmosphere, but it also stunned Josiah for a second or two.
"I've thought about it. It might be … two months later."
Josiah's voice was a little stiff. Although Josiah had accumulated a lot of experience over the past two years, he had seen all kinds of storms and waves.
But in terms of marriage, Josiah couldn't deny that he was a complete newbie whether it was on Earth or in this world.
"Really? Remember to send someone to inform me in advance. "
This time, Cersei didn't give Josiah a chance to answer. She pushed open the door beside her and walked in.
The moment the door closed, Josiah let out a long sigh of relief.
"Marry … marry? Is … Is this ring really a wedding ring? "
Hiri immediately rushed to Josiah's side. She was even more flustered than Josiah.
"This … this … shouldn't be counted. It's just for you as a protective talisman."
Josiah had previously given Hiri a ring that could be immune to mental attacks. This was to prevent the purple-clothed man from affecting Hiri's mind. It seemed that this ring hadn't been used much.
"I'll buy a new one as … a wedding ring."
Josiah answered this question very seriously. During the conversation, Josiah's voice became extremely low. In the end, both of them could only turn their heads away with red faces.
The purple-clothed man next to them looked at Josiah and Hiri. His expression was full of "it's good to be young" envy.
… …
When Josiah entered the hall again, he found that the atmosphere was a little strange. The members of the "Quasi-Demon national team" sitting at the round table were all silent. The atmosphere in the hall was so stiff that it was hard to breathe.
"What … happened?"
Josiah asked everyone present. Cersei had just entered the hall and didn't understand the situation. The Blood Duke was the first to stand up as a bystander.
"Your Highness Josiah, did the knights under the queen of the Iron Nation really not cheat in this game?" the Blood Duke asked.
"Cheat?"
Josiah went directly behind a Blood Race player and looked at the magic net interface in front of him. The scarlet word "Defeat" on the magic net interface was particularly glaring.
Defeat was not the most humiliating thing. What was humiliating was the comparison of the number of kills between the two sides … The Iron Forger had killed a total of 37 in this game, while the Demon side had killed 11.
This ratio could be described as utter defeat.
Josiah could imagine that these fledgling Blood Race players had been beaten to the point of doubting life.
As for the Venerated Skeleton … Although Josiah couldn't see her current expression, it was rare for the Duke to be silent.
"It is impossible to cheat in this game, even if the queen has a World Tree."
Josiah could guarantee that there was only one person in the world who knew how to analyze the magic net language and could approach Josiah's level, and that was Gray Robe.
Noland's programming class had not been attended for two months. Gray Robe was there to conduct research with other spellcasters.
It was impossible for the queen to cheat on the magic net, but there was cheating in the body's reaction in this world … It couldn't be called cheating either.
There was an essential difference between a powerful knight and a weak civilian in terms of nerves and conscious reaction speed.
"The reason why you were defeated so miserably is purely that others regard playing the Holy Spirit as their profession, or rather, their life."
Josiah didn't have much contact with the queen, but judging from Dorothy and the title of Bloody Queen.
99% of the national team she formed was the 'win or die' kind.
Regardless of whether it was in terms of experience or training, the five members that Josh had just recruited were far inferior to the blacksmiths.
"Say something disheartening." Josiah looked at the Blood Race who had suffered a great blow in their confidence and said, "I don't think you are going to win the championship, but other countries also train their players to this extent. If the Demon Realm is defeated miserably in the first round …"
Josiah looked at the Blood Duke. The players were mainly Blood Race under his command. In terms of punishment, the Blood Duke's words were more deterrent.
"I won't talk about the punishment for failure at this time. If you win the championship, I will fulfill everyone's wish." The Blood Duke's answer was far more bold than Josiah imagined.
"Josiah, is there really no better warriors in the Demon Realm?"
The Venerated Skeleton finally spoke. She questioned Josiah loudly with anger in her voice.
It seemed that the Iron Forgers not only defeated them ruthlessly but also humiliated them.
"They are really the best in the village … No, in the entire Demon Realm," said Josiah.
