"You are the sister of the Duke of Saint Prospero?"
Colin's eyes widened in disbelief.
"What? Do I not look like it? "Beatrice raised her eyebrows and asked.
Colin did not speak.
He just felt that as the sister of the Duke of Saint Prospero, Beatrice actually married into a Viscounts' family … It was a bit too tragic.
For comparison, Mydella, as the sister of the previous Duke Of Saint Hilde, married Emperor Reinhardt.
Even if Beatrice could not marry into the royal family, she would not be reduced to marrying into this unknown Fiennes family.
As if she saw Colin's doubts, Beatrice immediately explained, "It was because I offended that bitch from the Church, and my stupid brother was bewitched by her, so I married into this damned place, Skylark City.
Actually, I even escaped from the marriage … Hehe, unfortunately, I was caught by my brother. "
Colin's forehead was full of black lines. The person in front of him was probably a spoiled and willful young lady.
Beatrice was still there sighing, "What kind of magic do you think the bitch from the Church has?
My brother is like this, and so is my useless son. Ever since he married the bishop of Skylark City, he no longer listens to me.
Now that he is imprisoned in Silvermoon City, he deserves it. It is a good opportunity for him to reflect on his previous foolish actions. "
Colin suddenly felt that this Beatrice was targeting the Church not because of "public anger", but because of "personal hatred"!
Previously, when she said that the Church was the cancer of the Radiant Empire, it was probably a high-sounding excuse. The real reason was because of the betrayal of her brother and son …
Seeing that Colin did not speak, Beatrice urged, "How about it? I help you kill that bitch Kate, and you let my son go, and you will no longer make things difficult for the Fiennes family? "
Colin was a bit speechless and said, "Why do I feel that you obviously want to kill Kate yourself, how did it become helping me?"
Beatrice snorted and said, "Count Angele, don't tell me you don't understand. If Kate dies in my hands, what kind of effect will it have?"
This time, Colin did not refute.
Indeed, he really wanted to see the duchess die in Beatrice's hands.
After all, the influence of the Church represented by the Duchess would obviously have a great negative impact on Colin's plan to control the Eastern Region.
Hence, Colin did not wish to see this woman get in the way of things in White Dew City. However, he did not wish to kill Kate with his own hands, because if he did, he would completely enrage the Church.
Colin didn't want to do such a stupid thing.
The power of the Church that Colin understood was already terrifying enough, and this was only the power that was on the surface. Who knew how much power was hidden in the dark?
Colin definitely did not want to be on the Church's blacklist.
But if the Duchess died in the hands of Beatrice, then Colin would not have to bear the wrath of the church.
More importantly, Beatrice's surname was Saint Prospero!
If the follow-up operation was done properly, it could completely create a gap between the House of Saint Prospero and the Church, and even make the Eastern Region completely side with the Royal Family!
This was simply killing many birds with one stone.
But because this matter was so beautiful, Colin could not believe it for a moment.
"Knight Beatrice, are you willing to pay such a high price for a Fiennes Viscounts?" Colin couldn't help but ask.
It was not that he looked down on the Fiennes Viscounts, but the price that Beatrice paid in order to redeem her son was a bit too high.
She gambled the future of herself, the Fiennes, the House of Saint Prospero, and even the entire Eastern Region.
Or could it be that this vengeful woman had reached such a desperate point in order to take revenge on her sister-in-law who bullied her in the past?
Colin had seen many stupid people, but he knew that the one in front of him was obviously not one.
The previous series of actions were not something that a stupid person could do.
"Of course, I'm not just doing it for that good-for-nothing son," Beatrice said frankly. "He's not that important. The reason why I'm doing this is actually to help the Empire of Light eliminate the internal dangers. "
Colin raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "You want to use this to force the House of Saint Prospero to fight against the Church?"
"To be more precise, it should be to suppress the Church." Beatrice looked seriously into Colin's eyes, her amber eyes flashing with a deep and firm light. "Now that this Church has seriously affected the stability and unity of the Empire, we must cut off its tentacles everywhere and let 'the gods belong to the gods, and the secular belong to the secular'!
Only in this way can the Empire of Light firmly guard the most fertile land on this continent, and humans will not follow in the footsteps of the elves and dragons! "
Colin's expression gradually became serious.
Originally, Colin thought that Beatrice and Queen Mydella were allies. After all, they were both trying to fight against the Church.
Now it seemed that the two of them were not on the same side at all.
To be honest, although Beatrice's power was completely incomparable to Queen Mydella's, if he had to choose an ally to fight against the Church, Colin would not hesitate to choose Beatrice.
Queen Mydella would only continue to encourage Colin to be the vanguard against the Church, while she hid behind and tried to take advantage of the situation.
As for Beatrice, the female knight first cut off the head of a bishop with her own hands, and now she was eyeing the Archbishop of the Eastern Region …
Colin believed that Beatrice should be selfless. She really wanted to suppress the Church's intervention in the secular world, so that the Empire of Light could be united and not collapse in internal friction.
Even if he knew that Beatrice's actions were very beneficial to him, Colin could not help but remind her:
"Knight Beatrice, you should understand that if it was just a bishop of Skylark City, there would still be room for negotiation, but if you really kill the Archbishop of the Eastern Region … then even the House of Saint Prospero can't protect you."
Beatrice smiled and said, "When did I need the protection of the House of Saint Prospero? As for the Church's anger, I have already prepared for it, so you don't have to worry. "
Colin's expression was complicated. He opened his mouth, but only sighed and said, "You are a real knight!"
Beatrice's eyes were calm and firm as she accepted Colin's praise.
Then, she looked serious and said, "Well, if you agree to this proposal, then I need your help."
"How can I help?"
"Because I tried to assassinate Kate once before, so she is already on guard against me. I need you to help me control the guardian knights around her …"
Colin was speechless again.
This was not the first time this woman tried to assassinate the Archbishop of the Eastern Region … It seemed that the Duke of Saint Prospero was lenient enough to only marry her to Skylark City.
Beatrice, of course, did not know what Colin was thinking and continued, "… My plan is like this. I will go to White Dew City alone, and you will lead the army there later. Don't worry, you don't have to attack White Dew City, I will help you open the gate.
After entering the city, you will lead the Blood Cavalry and follow me. As long as you can help me eliminate the guards around Kate, I can kill her with my own hands! "
Due to the lag in the transmission of information, Beatrice did not know that White Dew City had actually been breached by the Blood Cavalry once, and her brother, the Duke of Saint Prospero, was killed.
Colin hesitated for a moment and did not tell her this.
He wanted to know if Beatrice would stick to her heart and continue to fulfill her promise after entering the city and learning the news.
"Good! It's settled! "
"Happy cooperation!"
"Happy cooperation."
