On top of the castle where heavy snow was falling, amidst the gray mountains, Leon gently held the king's scepter in his hand. After hearing about the Seed of Destruction, the Sun King remained silent.
Seeing Laing like this, Aurora's interest was piqued. In fact, the Sanctuary Witch did not need to deliver the letter in person. She could have asked someone to deliver it, but for no reason, Aurora wanted to deliver it in person. She just wanted to see Laing.
The Sanctuary Witch did not want to, but she had to admit that ever since Laing had become a demigod, he had become more charming. The smell of his body had become better, and the phantom light that surrounded his body made people want to get close to him, especially the witches.
Aurora watched her daughter's legs go weak as she was helped back to the tent by the apprentice. She had not recovered from her rest until today, so she naturally had other thoughts. Moreover, whether she wanted to or not, Aurora had been forced to treat this place as her home and Laing as her protector. Therefore, after seeing Laing's silence, Aurora tidied up the skirt she had specially changed into. Her pair of long black stockings were slightly raised, and her hands wrapped in black lace gloves gently stroked her pair of proud long legs. There was a shallow crease at the ankle of her thin starry stockings so that Laing could admire it. Then she adjusted her tone, trying to sound curious but not overly inquisitive, and asked, "The Seed of Destruction? The Demon Prince of Khorne? Listening to your brother's tone, this is a strong enemy for you? "
Laing's attention was indeed attracted by Aurora. He focused all his attention on the beautiful black stockings of the Sanctuary Witch. He came back to his senses and could not help but smile. "It's not just a strong enemy. I dare say that even if Brother Anglo and I fought together, it would be difficult to say that we could defeat him."
"Ah!" Aurora was shocked, and the Sanctuary Witch's beautiful face turned pale. "Is it really … that powerful? Then what should we do? Do you need to hide? Is there any shelter? "
"The enemy has come to find us. There's no reason to hide." Laing did not think much of it. Yuan looked at Aurora with a faint smile. "Oh my God, Lady Aurora, you actually care about me?"
"You are the protector of Teresa and me. You are our master and boss. You are also Xi'er's father, and my and Teresa's... In short, nothing must happen to you. If you need my help, just let me know." Aurora took out a flower fan and used it to cover her blushing face unnaturally. "Can you tell me about the Seed of Destruction?"
"Oh, Ms. Aurora, the stockings on your feet are wrinkled." Ryan said seriously, "Come here, I'll help you smooth it out. I'll also give you a foot massage."
Help me? Wrinkle? Aurora wanted to laugh when she heard that. Who do you think I am? Do I have to go over just because you tell me to?
“???” Something strange happened. The Sanctuary Witch inexplicably got up before her consciousness could react. She walked in front of Laing and sat down. Then she stretched out her beautiful black stockings and indicated that it was okay.
"Damn it, what the hell is going on?" Aurora said strangely. The Sanctuary Witch was horrified to find that she had lost control of her body. She frowned and was about to ask Laing what was going on when a lightning-like electric current flowed through her brain and heart. Aurora's mind suddenly went blank, and she could no longer think.
By the time she came back to her senses, the mature and beautiful witch in black silk no longer cared about what had just happened. She blushed and allowed Ryan to knead her silky feet. She said angrily, "Okay, you've touched me. Now you should tell me, right?"
Olica was really a talent! Laing smiled and told Aurora about the Seed of Destruction.
The Seed of Destruction, the Original Khorne Prince, the first Demon Prince exclusive to Khorne. Not only was his strength stronger than Angelang in the original demon form, but he was also more violent and dangerous than Angelang. What was even more alarming was that compared to Angelang, the Seed of Destruction was more intelligent and strategic. His cloak was made from the heads of a thousand Black Star Troopers.
His real name had long been forgotten and was only recorded on a roll of shriveled human skin. However, as a human, a powerful king and conqueror, he had accomplished countless feats of conquering and destroying cities and countries in the Holy Terra M1-M2 era. The cavalry under his command had swept away all enemies, including the countries on Terra for a long time. He had also established a huge Empire that spanned across Asia and Europe.
He had to take responsibility for the genocide and mass murder of multiple species.
Such wanton slaughter did not escape Khorne's eyes. When the Blood God was relatively young, he had given this general the ultimate demon power as a reward. Therefore, to some extent, the Seed of Destruction could be said to have a small part of Khorne's origin. This small part of his origin was already enough to make him stand out among all the other Demon Princes. Probably only the origin of the Original Demon Prince, Birak, could be compared to the Seed of Destruction.
What made Laing feel even more pressured was that the Seed of Destruction was one of the few Demon Princes who had seen the Emperor when he was still a mortal. When he came to Asia Minor in his later years, he had seen the Emperor before he revealed his true identity.
The Emperor made him taste his first major defeat in history, but it did not stop him from conquering a powerful country and massacring millions of people.
After that, under Khorne's orders, the Seed of Destruction destroyed countless worlds and homes. It appeared several times when the Four Gods of Chaos were at a disadvantage. Abaddon the Plunderer once summoned the Seed of Destruction. The Prince of the Original Blood God led his Demon Army to wipe out two Black Star Trooper units, the War Eagle and the Worshippers. It was not until an entire unit of Blood Angels sacrificed themselves that the Seed of Destruction was barely sealed on a planet, preventing it from leaving the subspace.
The seal lasted for five thousand years. The Blood Angel, Mephisto, discovered the seal of the Seed of Destruction during a premeditated voyage. It was a perfect sculpture of Saint Giles at the moment of his death by Horus. When everyone else praised it for being a holy relic, only Mephisto thought it was a conspiracy of Chaos and destroyed it. It was indeed a conspiracy of Chaos, and the Seed of Destruction was set free from then on.
Thinking that he was about to face the Prince of the Original Blood God, who was widely acknowledged to be more powerful than the Demon Ascension Progenitors, Laing felt great pressure.
Furthermore, the Seed of Destruction did not come alone. He had brought a complete Demon Army and three Khorne lieutenants with him.
Yes, in the realm of Chaos, it was always the Prince of Demons who acted as lieutenants for the Chaos Demons. But with the Seed of Destruction, it was the other way around.
"Then, then what should we do?" Aurora asked weakly.
"You and Teresa don't have to worry about this. I will take care of it," Laing said casually. He let go of Aurora and gestured for her to leave. "Thank you for your hard work."
"Erm … If you are busy here, do you need me and Teresa to help you?" Aurora rolled her eyes. The Sanctum witch gently put one of her black stockings into her high heels and tapped it on the side. "Actually, Teresa and I can also share your burdens. For example, regarding the defense of the North."
Clayon sneered when he heard that. Aurora was eyeing the construction of the northern defense again. That was a huge sum of money for the defense of the country.
"Alright, then I have a question for you. I'm not counting on Theresa, but if you can handle this well, I'll let you and Theresa go to Cullona to take charge of military affairs. What do you think?" Laing smiled and took a letter from the table. "Marshal Roland Marshall of the Brittany Border Guard recently sent a letter saying that the border area was attacked by the Cult of Chaos, the Nurgle Carnival. Both sides fought fiercely, and our army won. We defeated the Cult of Chaos and killed more than 300 people, including a Nurgle Priest. We lost more than 100 people, but unfortunately, one of the granaries was burned down. We lost more than 600 tons of food, and another 400 tons were contaminated. Marshal Roland requested for an emergency transfer of 1000 tons of food. He also sent a list of five people who contributed to the war and asked me to grant them five knighthood as a reward."
"May I ask my MI7 director and my female courtier, Madam Aurora, how do you intend to deal with this matter?" Clayon smiled as he handed the parchment to Aurora.
"What? We killed more than 500 people, but we lost more than 200 people and 1000 tons of food? You call this a victory? " Aurora was eager to show off her skills. The Sanctuary witch quickly emphasized, "This is clearly a defeat. They lost so miserably, and they dare to ask for food and knighthood? What a waste! "
"Hahaha ~" Laing crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair. "So, if it were you, how would you deal with Marshal Roland?"
"Of course, I would issue an edict to tell Marshal Roland that his deception has been seen through. Since you can't do it, I will consider changing the Marshal of the Border Guard. Of course, I can give him another chance to redeem himself! I will give him a period of time to find the Nurgle Cult's nest and destroy them. " Aurora proudly told Leon about her plan, and the Sanctuary Witch also crossed her arms in front of her chest, propping up her two round breasts. "If there is a next time, I'll immediately take away the title of Marshal! There must be no mistakes! "
"How about it? Laing, what do you think of my way of dealing with him? Not only will I give him a chance to redeem himself, but I will also let him know that deceiving the Sun King will not end well. It will also crack down on this bad practice of concealing defeat and taking credit. "Aurora saw that Laing only smiled and asked with anticipation.
Laing only smiled, which made Aurora angry, but she did not dare to argue with him. After laughing for a minute, Laing coughed and said in a deep voice, "Concealing defeat and taking credit is a habit of all armies, especially the Border Guard. It is not targeted at me. Besides, Marshal Roland's mission is to defend. Overall, his decision is not a problem."
"Roland Marshall is an old general passed down from the previous king. He has been stationed at the border of the Kurona Road for more than 30 years. The Kurona Road is a wasteland full of swamps, monsters, and attacks. Marshal Roland has been stationed there for more than 30 years and never tried to transfer away. Whether it is loyalty to the kingdom or to me, there is no doubt." Laing continued, "If he is heavily punished because of such a small defeat, then what about a big defeat?"
Aurora did not speak.
"Besides, Marshal Roland's Border Guard is an old army that he has led for more than 30 years. It is easy to change commanders. Other than Laun, I can't think of any other Marshal who can take over his army in a short time." Laing continued, "If it is not handled well, it is very easy to cause a huge change. The soldiers will complain, and Marshal Roland will be even more disappointed."
"This … Then what do we do?" Aurora was out of ideas. "Then let him succeed? In the future, if we lose, it will be a draw. Or should we just treat it as if we won? "
"You have to grab both hands. Both hands have to be hard." Since he wants food, I'll give it to him. If he wants a knighthood, I'll give him one as well. Then, I'll write a letter to tell him clearly that I know that you've lost. I'll let you go this time, but in the future, he needs to be more vigilant and not let me see such news again. Roland will understand my meaning, my kindness, and my warning. That's enough. We're all sensible people, so there's no need to say everything out loud. "
"You can't, Lady Aurora. You really can't." Laing shook his head with a bitter smile. "Don't put your wizard logic into politics and military affairs. The level of wizards you use to deal with internal affairs is too naive in the palace, but in the military … In the war, once you make a mistake, it is easy to make another mistake, and there is no chance of redemption. When to be strict and when to be lenient, if you do not grasp the scale, you will only do worse."
"In fact, all these years, if I had not been protecting you, you would have been driven out long ago."
"Hmph, only you know. You know best. You and your queen know best. I don't know!" Aurora was speechless. She could only act shamelessly and said, "Okay, okay, I don't care. Later in the evening, Teresa and I will prepare some supper and wine. Do you want to come and have a drink?"
"If I have time, I will consider it." Laing's eyes lit up.
"Then Teresa and I will wait for you in the tent tonight." Aurora got up and left, twisting and turning as she disappeared outside the room.
Laing was left alone to continue admiring the snow and looking at the pile of documents that was as tall as him.
"She can't, then what about me?" Veronica's faint voice came out from under the quilt. The charming female speaker was also unconvinced. "Can't I help?"
"You will be of help." Laing caressed Veronica's face. "But, in other places, such as internal affairs, you witches are really not suitable. This is not suppressing you, this is protecting you."
"Then what about the Seed of Destruction? There are still three great demon adjutants. What do you plan to do? "Veronica was also concerned about Laing's fate.
"He has adjutants. Can't I have adjutants?" Laing laughed. "I also have my adjutants. Don't worry."
"Your adjutants, are they Peyton and the others?" Veronica asked.
"Peyton and the others are no good. I'm talking about a guy who is still wandering around in the realm of chaos. That person is my adjutant and also my son." Laing revealed his teeth and the corners of his mouth curled up. "I just don't know what expression he will have when he finds out that he suddenly has a biological father."
“???”
"Speaking of which, this guy is really something. He is so strong … but he can't even deal with the curse of that embarrassing newbie monster Muka the Reborn."
"Child, daddy is very disappointed in you."
