PS: The new version of Hearthstone is crappy. Played 5 rounds using the standard Big Brother Mu, won 2, lost 3, and is still at level 25. Is Hearthstone really that hard to play now? Sure enough, it's better to uninstall it.
"The Empire's internal affairs are not to be interfered with by outsiders, even by the Knight King on the other side of the mountain." The great alchemist shook his head and said, "No matter how you argue, whether Emmanuel should take over the position of Kurfürst has nothing to do with you. Currently, the most important people in the Empire, Emperor Karl-franz and Kurfürst Boris Todbringer, are both on Emmanuel's side. Plus, she revealed that Gianni is actually a woman, so her chances of winning are quite high. If you interfere now, it's very likely that you'll touch the sensitive nerves of the Kurfürst and cause the entire situation to change."
"Okay." Laing nodded. This was the same for all the forces of order. The internal affairs of the Empire were one thing. No matter how friendly his relationship with the Empire was, he was still a noble of Brittany.
"But you'd better make a statement, and that is to admit that the child in Emmanuel's belly is yours." Gelt calmly continued his analysis. "This is very important to her. As long as you admit it, all the Kurfürst will seriously examine the relationship between the two of you and the power behind Emmanuel."
"I'm already doing it." There was no dispute about this. Laing said that he had already ordered his subordinate, Baron Deven Hex, to bring the document he personally signed to the Empire.
The status of an illegitimate child was related to the attitude of his parents, the attitude of the Emperor, and the environment in which he was born.
If the illegitimate child's parents were great nobles and were recognized by their parents, then he would not be considered lowly.
If the illegitimate child's status could be recognized and supported by the Emperor, and at the same time be legalized, then he would be able to legally inherit the title.
Laing and Emilia's child would not have any competition for the right of succession, because Emilia was the only direct descendant of the Bernardino family. As long as she could give birth to a healthy child, the illegitimate child would definitely inherit her title in the future, because there was no other choice in the order of succession.
With the Emperor's approval, Laing only needed to express his attitude. He stood in his position, did not interfere, and let Emilia handle everything herself.
This was Galt's suggestion. Laing pondered for a while before slowly nodding his head. This was the thought of an experienced alchemist. There was nothing wrong with the great alchemist's idea. Although this method of dealing with it was somewhat like being an ostrich, Laing didn't need to interfere in the current situation where Emilia had the upper hand. After all, this was the internal affairs of the Empire.
The two of them came to a small hill. Looking at the lush plains of Estalia and the greenery on the plains, Leon was worried about his little maid. He remained silent and didn't say anything.
"The Schroders thought that Gianni and Amelia were childhood friends, so they wouldn't object to the marriage. But no one expected Gianni to be a woman, and no one expected Amelia to be pregnant." Gianni nodded. "That's right, Amelia, you know, is pregnant. But no one expected Gianni to be a woman.
"This was an accident, but I won't regret it. I will do my duty," Laing said loudly with his hands behind his back. "I've taken her in for many years."
"This has nothing to do with how many years you've taken her in." Galt turned around. "Do you know how many Kurfürst families have proposed marriage in the Empire's parliament? The pressure that Emmanuel has to endure is far greater than you can imagine. I've tried twelve times, but I'm still unable to fully consider every variable. But from the current situation, it seems that Emmanuel intends to persevere until the end. "
"I know." Laing frowned. He could only sigh. "Let's see what happens in the future."
Emilia was far away in the capital of the Empire, so Laing couldn't do anything. He took out an eagle flag and handed it to Galt. "Do you recognize this?"
"Magritte Knights." Galt took the eagle flag. The great alchemist only glanced at it before returning it to Laing.
"You know?" Laing took back the eagle flag. The Magritte Knights was a secret he had learned from the Grail Cathedral. As an older and more knowledgeable Empire, there was no reason for him not to know, especially for Galt, who had recently gained favor.
"The Empire knows far more than you can imagine," Galt said in a low voice. "As expected, the Magritte Knights are involved in this matter."
"Does the Empire have anything to say about this? Such a huge hidden organization? "Laing asked.
"The Magritte Knights' mission and goal is an expedition to Araby. Is there any conflict between this and the Empire's policy? At least they are still fighting against the enemies of the humans, fighting to protect the borders of the Empire. They are constantly eliminating the Apostles of Chaos and the mutant creatures worshipped by the desert villains. " The great alchemist's voice was cold and full of disdain. "The Spear of Justice was separated from the Magritte Knights to protect the Empire's security. The Eagle Knights have been fighting the Army of Chaos in Kislöw and the north of the Empire all year round. The Knights of the Scorching Sun specialize in dealing with the undead army. If it weren't for them, how many more troops would Karl-franz's Empire have to lose?"
"Millions of humans have sacrificed their lives to protect the Empire. I don't think we need to worry about the desert on the other side of the ocean. The Empire has twice expressed that they want the Magritte Knights, who have been hiding for hundreds of years, to give up the expedition to Araby. But this order will never last long." The great alchemist was always so calm. "Because the Emperor's courtiers always think that there is no need to pay attention to the distant sea."
"But now I'm in trouble!" Laing whispered. "The rogue knights have stolen the Poseidon's Trident, the heirloom of the Bordero family. The Magritte Knights believe that this divine weapon can help them in their expedition to Araby!"
"This is indeed a problem." The grand alchemist was also aware of the problem. He paced and pondered. "According to what you said, the High Vampires are also involved in this conspiracy. The Lemia family … and my opponent is Baron Leopold Haken of the Blood Dragon family."
"So, in the theft of the Poseidon's Trident, it involves the Empire, the Duke of Bordero's family, me, the rogue knights, the vampire Lemia family, the vampire Blood Dragon family, the Church of the Goddess of War, the Magritte Knights, and the Merchant Alliance of Estalia." Laing said with a pained expression. "So, I need your help, great alchemist of the Empire."
"… What help do you need?" Bayershazer Galt understood the purpose of Laing's visit. He nodded. "I'll try my best to help you. This is His will."
"The Empire must be able to contact the Magritte Knights and the leader of the Merchant Alliance of Estalia, right?" Laing narrowed his eyes. "I want to meet them. Help me arrange a meeting with them. Otherwise, the vampires' conspiracy will succeed!"
"Meeting?" Gelt thought for a moment. "Sure. Enzo Moretti, the Grand Tutor of the Magritte Knights, is staying in Magritte. As for the leader of the Estalia Merchant Alliance, Amancio Perez, he is a shrewd and cunning merchant. He should be willing to meet you.
"Help me arrange it. Be quick." Ryan frowned. "According to our intelligence, the merchants of Estalia have hired a group of well-equipped mercenaries with a large number of firearms to protect them as they deliver their goods. If this battle really breaks out, there will definitely be heavy casualties. This is not something I want to see."
"I understand. I'll contact the Empire's ambassador in Estalia immediately!" Galt naturally would not refuse Laing's request. "I can help you contact them, but how to negotiate with them is up to you. I won't participate."
"Of course." Laing understood. Galt's identity was special. He was the great alchemist of the Empire. To some extent, he represented the will of Emperor Karl-franz. He could not simply use his authority. This would cause the Emperor to lose trust in him.
"Borrowing the power of the Empire is not without a price." The great alchemist's eyes hidden behind the golden mask exuded a stern aura. "Alchemy is a kind of equivalent exchange. If you don't sacrifice something, you won't get anything. In order to get something, you must pay the same price. This is the principle of equivalent exchange in alchemy."
"What price does the great alchemist of the Empire want?" Laing knew that it was time to negotiate.
"Help me deal with the Blood Dragon Baron Leopold Haken!"
