Tang En tried his best to make Olina understand what he meant.
Olina was even more embarrassed.
Tang En didn't mean it that way, but she misunderstood. It seemed that she couldn't wait to marry Tang En.
Awkward, it was too awkward.
Olina, who was blushing, took a while to calm down. Then, she briefly told Tang En about her brother, Oscar.
As the southernmost country on the continent, Ronicante was a relatively weak kingdom in terms of overall strength. In order to seek development, Ronicante highly advocated commercial behavior. It was also the country closest to a capitalist society in Prandal.
As a result, although Ronicante was not strong, it was very rich. Many people in the country called for strengthening its military strength in case it was targeted by some countries — the so-called "some countries" naturally referred to the Irus Empire.
Oscar, who had taken over the crown, still maintained his father's governance habits. He maintained the basic military strength in a moderate way, and most of his energy was focused on how to expand the domestic market and increase the import and export trade.
Due to the instability of the space on the southern coast and the frequent appearance of the Gates of Chaos, the floating island, City of Silver, had been floating back and forth in the south of Ronicante. The trade with the City of Silver accounted for a considerable share of Ronicante's import and export. The reason why Ronicante was so rich was because of the trade with the City of Silver.
City of Silver was a floating island, which meant that their food, clothing, housing, and transportation, as well as the materials needed for all kinds of magic experiments had to be met through import and export trade. The small amount of magic scrolls, alchemy products, magic equipment, and so on produced by City of Silver were first obtained by Ronicante because they were close to the market.
They shipped these things out of the country and sold them at a high profit. It could be said that as long as the City of Silver didn't leave, Ronicante would always be rich.
Therefore, Oscar had been working hard to maintain the relationship with the City of Silver.
"City of Silver?"
Tang En was thoughtful. It seemed that if he wanted to establish a relationship with Oscar, he had to talk to Jean first, which was too troublesome.
"Why do you want to see him?"
Olina hesitated. "If you need, I can try to talk to him for you."
"No need."
Tang En shook his head. Olina had been married to the Irus Empire for many years. As the saying goes, the royal family has no kinship, let alone a princess who was married off for marriage.
Of course, Oscar still had some affection for Olina as his sister. However, a qualified king would never change his mind because of affection. Otherwise, Director Li of Datang Group would not have caused the Xuanwu Gate incident.
Tang En pondered for a moment. Although it was useful to look for Jean, Jean was not in Ellington now, and he did not know when he would come again. It would take too much time. He might as well go through the Radiant Church.
Thinking of this, Tang En stood up and said, "Your Highness, please consider it again in the next two days. I have to set off immediately to deal with the Dark Serpent."
"Lord Tang En, you don't have to worry too much. Since Victor said this was the only way, I have no objection. After all, I'm just a widow with an empty right of inheritance."
Olina said a little awkwardly, "It's my honor to help you."
"You make it sound like you're taking advantage of me."
Tang En was speechless. "Don't forget, if the plan succeeds, your country will fall into my hands, and the royal bloodline will be cut off."
Olina said with a bitter smile, "If the world is destroyed, nothing will matter, right?"
"That's true."
Tang En was speechless. They really trusted him so much.
As soon as Tang En went out, he saw Aurelia leaning against the wall beside him as if nothing had happened.
Although she had just said that she did not care, she was definitely eavesdropping.
Aurelia tilted her head and asked, "Are you going out?"
"Yes … Stand up straight. You're not a blood elf with cervical spondylosis."
"Cervical spondylosis? Blood elf? "
"Oh, an alien race. Females have hereditary cervical spondylosis."
Tang En casually complained and then said, "I won't be in Ellington for the next few days, but I don't think there will be any danger here. You just carry out the previous plan and cooperate with Fiona."
"Got it."
Aurelia rolled her eyes and turned to leave. When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped and asked without looking back, "Have you decided to marry my mother?"
"It's a fake marriage!"
Tang En emphasized again, "It's just a temporary measure for the transition of inheritance."
"Humph, no matter what, it's the truth in the legal sense!"
Alleria snorted, stomped her foot, and left.
This girl …
Tang En sighed. Did she have Stockholm Syndrome?
She was tormented to the point that she wanted to kill him, but in the blink of an eye, she was jealous again.
After finding Fiona and giving her some instructions, Tang En went to the Magic Engineering Research Institute.
This time, he decided to take Elijah with him.
The reason was simple. He needed Elijah's power just in case.
If Jassas still planned to escape this time, hehe, Elijah's power would let him know that a disaster from the heavens was not a joke …
"Elijah, do you want to go out with me?"
"Big brother! Are you telling the truth?! "
Elijah's face was dirty, and there were faint traces of tears. She widened her eyes and looked at Tang En in disbelief. Tang En had not taken her out to play for a while, and he even left her here to study the miniaturization of magic arrays. The little girl felt very wronged.
Now that she suddenly heard Tang En's words, it was as if the little girl had heard the sound of nature. She rushed into Tang En's arms and cried coquettishly. "That's great, that's great, that's great! I thought big brother didn't want Elijah anymore! Although mom and sister said that big brother is very busy, Elijah just wants to be with big brother! "
Seeing the little girl so excited, Tang En also felt very guilty. He ran around every day and had no time to take care of her. He was not a good brother.
"Go wash your face and change your clothes."
Tang En rubbed Elijah's head and carried her back to Elsa's house.
"My lord?"
"Auntie Clairat."
Tang En greeted her and then said with a smile, "Help her wash up. I'm going to take her out."
Clairat was stunned. She nodded silently and pulled Elijah in.
If he took Elijah with him, he could use the power of Elijah's "Absolute Command" to restrict Elijah's escape, but he also had to be careful not to cause her power to leak or go berserk. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Tang En pondered for a long time and finally felt that it was the best choice to directly tell Elijah what to do.
Not long after, Elijah, who had washed up and changed her clothes, bounced out. The little girl could not wait to hold Tang En's hand as if she was worried that he would suddenly disappear again.
Clairat shook her head speechlessly. She had raised her daughter for so many years and was closer to Tang En than to them. This made her feel very complicated.
"Although I don't know what my lord is going to do, please protect Elijah."
"Of course, as long as I'm here, I will never let any harm come to her."
Tang En solemnly promised again, and then brought Elijah to Alinx.
At this moment, the atmosphere in Alinx was very tense. The news of the return of Martani and Yabaron's coalition forces had spread, and the news of His Majesty Girard being captured by Tang En had also spread in a small circle. Many people were ready to make a move.
And the most restless person now was none other than Charles, who was temporarily acting as the regent.
It felt good to be a king, so good that Charles did not want to take off the title of regent. When he learned that Girard was captured by Tang En, he even prayed that Tang En would simply kill Girard. Then, he could use the power of the Kadir family to block the voices of opposition, take off the title of regent, and become a real king.
But …
Tang En could actually kill two dukes and capture Girard alive under the joint forces of Duke Bartra, Duke Grosz, His Majesty Girard, and those expert guards. Was his strength really that terrifying?
The restless Charles felt that it was not very realistic.
Even if it was the legendary hero Jean, when faced with the siege of so many strong people, it would not be easy for him to win, let alone win easily.
Not to mention, the captains said that Tang En could tear the earth apart with his bare hands and make a huge rift valley appear in the earth …
There must be something wrong with this!
"I hope everything goes well for Father and the others. While Tang En is not in Ellington, take down his hometown. No matter how strong he is, he can't do anything."
Charles still did not know that Frank and his men had been completely wiped out.
But he knew that he was being watched.
The Radiant Church's recent attitude was very ambiguous. They seemed to have found out that he and Girard had joined the Dark Serpent, but they did not immediately turn hostile, which made Charles very puzzled.
There was also Aubrey and Aradeline, the two pillars of the Irus Empire. They made an excuse that they were going to a military exercise, but in the end, they really took two legions and left Alinx with enough supplies.
What were they trying to do? Were they trying to rebel?
Charles couldn't figure it out. Ever since he received the blessing, he had indeed gained great power. But now, he couldn't calm down and think about the problems that he could easily figure out. It was as if his mind was covered with a layer of fog. It was very strenuous for him to think.
Charles also fell in love with solving problems with his fists.
Radiant Church.
"Lord Tang En."
Pope Jesolini XXIII and Saintess Eluri received Tang En together.
"How is the communication with the Radiant Church going?"
Tang En went straight to the point.
